Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 26
Advertisement
The next day morning was simple like always. Eum Kyung didn't forget to bring a copy of his book so that Joon-won could have a look at it. Joon-won asked the guy to give him a week's time to read and give him feedback. Eum Kyung nodded and was anticipating the feedback. He was in what people call writer's block and needed to get out of it.
After Eum Kyung left, Gah Soo entered and joined him in the shift. Joon-won read the book he got when he had free time in the shift and found out why it was only a mediocre book. The book did not have anything unique. It was a very plain story. He read only a couple of pages out of the 300 pages book and could guess what the ending might be. Such predictable works, whether it was in a book, movie, or any other form would be boring.
He had no time to read the whole book and closed it before he walked out of the store and headed towards the university. He sent a text to Jung-hwa and asked if his part was near and she immediately replied back saying it was. He sped up and reached the class earlier.
As he entered the class, he heard Roh Ji's voice, "Oh, you are finally here Mr.Superstar. Did you want the complete practice to pause just because you are late? If you do not want to act, then give up your role to someone else." directed towards him.
He looked at her straight in the eye with his usual dead-pan face and said, "Am I not hear now? Or do you want to waste more time screaming at people?"
Hearing his words Roh Ji who was raging immediately stopped and as she registered the words Joon-won said, her anger hit the roof. As she was about to blow up again, Hyeong Myung, who had the same fake smile on his face, stopped her.

"Roh Ji, why are you blowing up again? Isn't the man here now? We only completed the previous part just now." as he said that, Roh Ji's expression turned 180 degrees as she shyly nodded while peeking at his hand on her shoulder.
She didn't forget to send a glare towards Joon-won before turning around and ordering others. Joon-won walked up to his seat and saw Jung-hwa looking at her, mouth wide open. Tapping her lower jaw, he said, "Do you want to have a few flies for lunch?"
She turned around to see him already sitting with the script in his hand and asked, "You went up against Roh Ji? Why did you do that? You usually just apologize to anyone from that group, even if it wasn't your mistake."
"I just spoke the truth. Don't get too hung up on it. Did you act well today?" questioned her back to change the subject.
She nodded and told him about the practice and that she was adjusting properly. After a while, another member of the production crew came up and asked Joon-won to go down for practice. It was his first scene where most of it was the narration.
Jung-hwa wished him luck, even though she knew he probably wouldn't be needing it. Joon-won walked down to the center as Roh Ji was giving out unnecessary orders to everyone again.
"Oh you came. Go and do your part with that tiny role you got." She sneered at him and turned around. Joon-won started to think the girl was crazy. What she just said wasn't even a proper insult. He shook his head and walked towards his spot.
The scene started with both the leads walking away happily laughing while holding hands as Joon-won looked at them from behind while clenching his teeth and hands.

With slight anger in his voice and face, he hissed, "Wait, what are they doing together. Happily talking, holding hands, it's like they are on a date. Why him, he is nothing. Just because he is famous?"
Looking at the two people, the others in the room were a bit surprised by Joon-won's acting as he continued, "Should I go and strip those two apart? Should I beat that guy up? No, not here and not like this. This is a betrayal. She showed hope and snatched it away. Ah! I can do that instead." ending it with a smile.
His face turned deadpan after the dialogue, as he didn't have any more in that scene. He walked away as Roh Ji interrupted him, "Where are you going? You should come to me and wait for my review of that horrible thing you call acting."
Joon-won's patience was thinning as he listened to her irritating voice. Even his decades of practice to build up patience was now wearing out. He simply looked over his shoulder and said, "Why should I care whether you approve of it or not. The ones who should judge me are the evaluators at the end of this week. Don't be on your high horse cause the higher you are, the harder you fall." And walked back to his seat.
Roh Ji's face was not completely red. No one spoke to her in such an arrogant manner in the class. She wanted to rip Joon-won to shreds, and if her stare could kill people, he would have died multiple times over. She felt his words are a complete slap to her face.
"Don't bother too much about a nobody. It will hurt your image if you easily get caught up in these situations. Just leave him, he probably won't pass." Hyeong Myung cooled her down once again, but as he stared at Joon-won's back there was a strange glint in his eyes.
Joon-won couldn't care less about an idiotic girl and a hypocrite man's thoughts. He got tired of the idiot's words and talked back. He didn't want to fight with someone who isn't even a quarter of his age but she was just too unbearable in the end.

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
