Seoul 2012.
It was a very sunny Monday. Danny was walking on the streets while listening to his favorite singer in his Ipod touch. He had just graduated from middle school yesterday and it was a time for students like him to enjoy their vacation and so he was on his way to a Pc bang to play some games.
"Wish I could sing as well as Frank" He muttered, immersed in the song. Suddenly, the phone in his pocket vibrated, he took it out and opened it to see that there was a notification from an application called "World's best" He clicked it and a large message appeared in his phone "Player has chosen to be a singer, World's best will now integrate with Player, Danny woo. Initiating World transportation in five seconds"
[Player anxiety level is rising]
[World transportation will happen in a blink of an eye, please do not be anxious player, Danny woo]
"How can I not worry, I don't even know what the fuck is happening!"
[Counting down in five, four, three, two]
[One…]
[World transportation Success] [Current world: Earth – 7777]
Everything happened in an instant for Danny, he looked around him and saw everything was the same "What kind of shitty prank is this" He continued walking without noticing the different signs of the shops around him. Danny wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed but he was average.
He reached the PC bang and rented a pc for three hours; he observed the pc and got confused as he looked at the brand of the monitor. It was Lansung not Samsung which was the brand the Pc bang always uses. Even the Asus mouse changed to a brand called Laus.
He was too confused that he went and called out the guy on the counter "hey mate, did you guys change your PC's brand?"
"That has always been the brand we use" The man looked at him as if he was a fool.
Danny was too shocked he could only mutter "What the fuck?" What embarrassed him more was the snickers and the laughs around him "What the fuck, is this for real?"
He opened the browser and searched the website for watching videos. He couldn't help but be amazed at the name "Viewtube". "Damn, that name sucks" Well, It didn't matter for him as long as he could listen to the gentlemen he admires.
Suddenly, His face went pale, when he searched for Frank the search results was none, he even typed a few classical singer's name but the results were the same as well.
"Holy f*ck! what the hell is happening?"
"Did I really travelled to another world?"
"Holy shit, shit like this only happens in novels"
His thoughts ran wild and He has so much questions unanswered, He took out his phone and tried searching for the app that started this phenomenon. He couldn't help but be shocked as he saw the name of the app World's best to World's best Singer.
As he clicked the app, a message appeared that says [System World's best singer will now integrate in player, Danny Woo's mind]
Danny suddenly felt a sharp stinging pain in his head but it only lasted for a few seconds, A voice appeared in his mind [Please close your eyes] As He closed his eyes, the expected darkness he would experience didn't happen because a Large Virtual Screen appeared in his vision.
[Experience points : 0]
[Welcome to World's Best Singer syst...]
"What the hell is this!"
He was too shocked that he opened his eyes and ran outside, everything that happened was too abrupt for him and so he kept on running until he reached his house. He stopped in front of his house, catching his breath.
"Use this to wipe your sweat, Dan"
A hand with a handkerchief entered his vision, he looked up and saw a woman in her teens, and she looked so beautiful that you could mistook her for an idol. Perfection would be the best word to describe her beauty and her figure was exceptionally good as well. Her supple skin made you want to touch her indefinitely.
Everything would be perfect for her lover to be, it was a jackpot as she is gentle and understanding. However, Danny understood that they were just childhood friends and nothing more; he's even considering that she's a lesbian because she's still single at the age of 18 except he set aside that thought since he saw her with a guy back then. Though, he had felt quite jealous for some reason back then, he realized that he doesn't have the rights to control her feelings and accepted her having a boyfriend. Highschool is really spring time for youth, he thought as he felt dejected.
Seeing Danny looked haggard as he catch his breath, Seo-ri asked curiously and smiled "Did you fight with someone again? Didn't aunty told you not to fight anymore"
He embarrassingly looked at her, of course he couldn't tell her why he was running "Of course I wasn't, I'm here to pick something I forgot"
Hearing his answer and seeing that Danny didn't took the handkerchief, Seo-ri took the initiative to wipe the sweat off him. "Alright I've wiped everything, what's with your voice, Dan" As the two were so close since childhood, they both wouldn't feel shy to show quite an intimate act like this.
"Ugh, I guess it's because I'm tired" Danny replied awkwardly.
She looked at him with a look that she didn't believed a word he said "Anyway, Let's go inside and you should wash up"
Danny smiled unwillingly and opened their gate, Seo-ri followed as they entered the house together. "Seo-ri, wait for me at the living room, I have to check my room" He hurriedly ran upstairs towards his room; he searched everywhere looking like a madman.
"What the hell! Where's my treasured albums!" Danny was a collector of old albums that was given to him by his grandfather and so he treasured it dearly. He looked at the place where his old record player at and couldn't find it there as well. "F*ck!"
Anyway, what's done is done. He thought when he suddenly smelled his body odor "Damn, I really need to take a bath" He then remembered what Seo-ri said earlier and he suddenly felt embarrassed. "Forget about it, she's probably used to me smelling like this" He said in comfort but of course as a teenager he would still feel embarrassed.
He took a bath towel and went downstairs towards their bathroom. He saw Seo-ri mingling with the stuff in the kitchen; it looked like she was preparing coffee for the two of them. "Hey Seo-ri, I'm going to take a bath first" He said nonchalantly.
Seo-ri was shocked when she heard him. He said it as if they were like two couples in a motel preparing to engage in sexual conduct. She replied awkwardly while hiding her blushing face "Sure, I'll prepare coffee and some snacks"
Danny looked around his house as he walked towards the bathroom and saw the placing of items the same. However, the brands of their furniture changed and he suddenly felt unfamiliar. He reached the bathroom and took off his clothes.
He looked towards the mirror and he saw his once brown eyes turned silver. "What the hell! My eyes changed colors!" He tried closing his eyes thinking that it will go back once he opened it again. "My eyes are really silver!" He couldn't believe it. Though, he admits that he looks great when matched with silver eyes.
Fifteen minutes later.
He had just finished bathing and currently the two of them is in the living room, watching a sitcom that is unfamiliar to Danny. It was a show about Soon to be idols living at the same mansion, they were tasked to do things and the winner will get a contract to an entertainment company.
Seo-ri was listening to a guy who was currently singing in the show "Danny, you sing better than this guy, I really miss the time when you used to sing your own songs to me even if it was in English" She looked nostalgic as she said everything word by word.
Danny looked at her when he remembered that the two of them only listened to the albums in that old record player, he never sang in front of her cause his voice couldn't imitate or sing as well as the singers.
"Really, am I that great in singing?" He asked curiously.
He was excited to hear her answer; he looked at her eyes with curiosity. Their eyes met and Seo-ri was immersed in his silvery eyes as if captivated, she couldn't help but answer honestly while smiling "Of course, you have the best voice for me and the songs you sing are so good. Honestly, it would be nice if you could sing for me again and it's been awhile since we did things like this since you've been ignoring me and the messages I sent you, I wonder why?"
"Damn, I didn't even know I'm that great of a singer!" Danny thought as he looked at her bewildered, did he even ignored her back then? Ah, he remembers it was because he saw her with a guy back then.
"Didn't you have a boyfriend you walk together with? It would be bad if your man sees your phone with my messages on it, seeing us together would even be worse" Danny said while looking at her questionably.
Seo-ri's eyes went wide in shock. She giggled while saying "Silly, that happened only once and nothing more after that. My classmate insisted to tag along because our route's the same; I rejected his advances after that. I thought you were ignoring me because I did something bad not of something like a simple misunderstanding"
"I just wished you wouldn't conclude things by yourself and cutting me off your life that easy" She followed up when She saw Danny deep in thought.
Little did she know that Danny was currently immersed in his mind, the virtual image when he closed his eyes appeared again with a message.
[Player has a pending quest]
