Chereads / World's Best Singer / Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

"What the hell, what is this quest" Danny spoke when he saw the image in his mind.

[Would you like to see the pending quests? Yes/No]

Right now, Danny was in a room with a white background, there was no door so to speak. It feels like he's trapped in a quiet room for asylum patients. He then clicked Yes and was amazed at what he saw.

The screen changed and a new message appeared before him.

[Quest: Charming Newbie]

[Description: Sing "Fly me to the moon" for your Childhood friend, Seo-ri. Look into her eyes as you sing and charm her with your silvery eyes]

[Reward: 3 Unlockable Quests, 50 Experience points]

"Woah, I don't even know if I can sing as well as the me in her memories! This system is messing with me"

[System scanning... Current player's voice is below standard]

"Holy shit, don't need to slap that into my face"

[Initiating Newbie Package]

[Will you open Newbie Package right now. Yes/No]

He clicked yes again and a sudden tingling pain hit his larynx. He couldn't mutter a word as he kept on choking.

[Newbie package has been given to Player, Danny Woo.]

[Player, Danny Woo's vocal type has been changed to Baritone. Memorization Skill at the level of adept is implemented to Player, Danny Woo.]

"F*ck, that h…" Danny spoke but he was too shocked to continue his words, his voice really changed it became deep and smooth "Damn, I could be famous with this kind of voice and with the classic songs I know from earth!"

He then tried to remember the songs he knew from earth, and he could remember the lyrics and melody of each song. It was as if he could hear the actual singer sing the song.

Danny opened his eyes and saw Seo-ri looking at him confusedly, He said at her jokingly "Are you charming me with that kind of look?"

Seo-ri blushed at his remark "No silly, It's just you were in deep thought for like a minute or so"

"Ah, I was recalling the lyrics of a song. Didn't you say that you wanted to hear me sing again?" Danny smiled and he stood up in front of her.

Danny looked at Seo-ri's eyes. He smiled so wide as if wanting to show her the most attractive part of him and he inhaled before singing the first verse.

"Fly me to the moon…" He sang very smoothly, Seo-ri couldn't understand the first part because it was in English and she was only familiar with simple English but she was amazed at his voice.

As Danny reached the latter part of the first verse "In other words, hold my hands" He extended his hands gesturing for her to hold on to his. He led her to stand up with him "Baby, kiss me" He smiled as he sang, beckoning her to kiss his cheeks.

His voice was so appealing that she couldn't resist his gestures, his smile made him even more attractive for her. She then tiptoed and kissed his cheeks.

Danny was so amazed at his voice but what made him more amaze was how she kissed him so outright "Damn!" He thought while he felt so energetic than usual. He kissed her hand and said "Dance with me" The two waltzed as Danny sang the second verse of the song.

Seo-ri felt as if she was in a fairy tale. The two of them waltzed around the living room; she was immersed in his voice and the lyrics he sang. Suddenly, it was as if time stopped as Danny sang the last part of the second verse "In other words, I love you" they were both in a standstill, gazing at each other's eyes.

She blushed while she averted her eyes. His eyes were so enchanting, she thought and when she tried to peek she saw him smile. Her heart was beating so fast that she wished she could hide in a hole right now.

Danny looked at his childhood friend while remembering the times they both spent together in the past, they both used to dance together and she would blush like this as well. He realized how beautiful and sexier she became as the two of them grow.

It was an unfamiliar feeling seeing the girl who he had been with together since his childhood in a daze. The innocent feeling he had for her as a friend was slowly turning into attraction, looking at her made him want to kiss her slowly and gently. However, it was still not the right time to start a relationship until he's sure that she feels the same way as well, he thought and bothered that he would get rejected.

He could only show her a gentle smile he could make and pinched her nose gently to put her out of her stupor "Hey, how's the song?"

She was surprised when he pinched her nose "Your voice was very overwhelming" she replied shyly.

"Great! Let's go sit and watch a different show. This show ain't that good" He led her to sit beside him, the two sat side by side while he switched off different channels, he said "Are you going to stay until dinner? It would be great if you could help mom in the kitchen when they get home later"

Seo-ri smiled when she heard his offered and she replied while yawning "Sure, I'll help auntie on making dinner. Don't blame though if it will taste bad." She then realized how embarrassing it was to show him her face when she yawned "Sorry, I got a bit tired since I walked on my way to your house"

"You know you could sleep on my shoulder, come put your head on to mine" Danny said as he slowly placed her head onto his shoulder, he then wrapped his arm on her shoulder "Just sleep while I watch"

Seo-ri's face was blushing so badly. She embarrassed to admit to herself but she liked the feeling of his shoulders, she remembered when they were children where she used to lay down with him and she would sleep on his chest.

While Seo-ri was facing her feelings in her mind, Danny closed his eyes and a Virtual message appeared.

[Charming smile's effects would only last for 5 seconds unless you keep on smiling]
