System, Let's Help The Second Male Lead!
Dying and Binding
!!!Pictures Used Are Not Mine!!!
It was a normal day for our protagonist..
He had just finished another audition and gotten the role he wanted to get...
Yes, he was an actor and a famous one at that.
He started appearing on the big screen once he was 5 years old.
His mother had always wanted to be an actress, but she was never able to fulfill her dream.
So she wanted her son to do it for her. Now he was 29 years old and already the best actor known inside their country.
He also slowly started to gain fame in foreign countries. He never blamed his mother for choosing this path for him. He loved to act and couldn't really see himself doing anything else.
Now, he was walking home while being in disguise, since he couldn't really show himself in public without getting overwhelmed by people. That was actually the only annoying thing. He hated all this attention he was getting.
While walking, he stopped at a red light. It was then... When he saw a small child running onto the road.
Child
"Come here, butterfly! Why are you flying away!?" *chasing the butterfly*
Noctis
'Oh no, what is that child doing?' *panicking*
Noctis
'Where are his parents?'
Child
*He was still chasing it while running on the road*
Noctis
Saw a truck coming toward the child "Oh no!" *ran without thinking*
He got hit while pushing the child away. With his last strength, he saw that the child was okay despite the bruises he got.
Noctis
'At least he's fine...' *last thought before dying*
System
<Congratulations Host. You meet all the necessary requirements to bind with the 'Guardian of the Second Male Lead’s' system>
Noctis
"What..?" *dumbfounded*
He had read novels and such things as well, so he roughly knew about Transmigration and systems and the like..
Noctis
'So... I'm dead, huh. I do feel a bit sad about it... No, honestly, it's horrible to think that I'll never see the people I'm close to again.. It hurts so much, I would actually love to cry, but.... Even if I do, it won't change things... I'm dead and will stay dead. I don't regret saving that child either. So, I'll do the best I can right now...'
Noctis
"You mean.. Like in those novels I read?"
System
<Well, basically yes~ But it's also not exactly the same>
Noctis
"So.. What would I do exactly?"
System
<Well.. You'd have to help the second male lead's get a happy ending>
Noctis
"Are there things I can't do?"
System
<Yes. There are some rules to this. But it's nothing big. You can't act OOC, since it wouldn't sit well with the original soul your body would belong to. You have to act within the originals character. Though there are exceptions. For example, if the original is a warm person on the inside and doesn't really know how to show it, you can show it without being OOC.>
Noctis
"I see.. I don't really want to ask this but...am I allowed to kill the Male Lead's?"
System
<Yes, but only under one condition, which is when they would endanger either you or the SML. It doesn't matter whether it's mentally or physically in that case>
Noctis
"I see... Thank you for explaining. Is there anything else I need to know?"
System
<Yes. You get 1000 points for binding with this system once you agree to the conditions mentioned earlier>
Noctis
"Okay. I agree to all your conditions and accept the binding"
System
<Binding accepted...>
System
<Binding Host's Soul to the system>
Binding completed. True system unlocked. Personality unlocked. System level:1. Points earned: 1000
System
"Hello dear host!~"
The Fox, which had been mechanically cold this whole time, started speaking and acting like a child.
Noctis
"Hello. Nice to meet you, my name is Noctis. What's yours?"
System
"I don't have a name, Host" *pouting*
Noctis
*chuckled at the cute pout* "Alright. Then should I give you one?"
System
"Yes! Please~" *looked at Noctis with shining eyes*
Noctis
"Okay... Then I'll name you Ryo!" *smiled gently at the small Fox*
System (Ryo)
"That's a nice name Host, thank you!" *jumped around happily*
Noctis
*chuckled again* "Call me Noctis. We'll be together for a long time now."
