Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku

Although he had just told Kikuchi that the other person had woken him up, the boy had actually been awake for a while.

A good routine is important, and a healthy body is key to everything, especially for actors, whose profession requires perfect control over every muscle in their body.

It's not just simple crying or laughing, but more nuanced expressions.

Laughter can be a bitter laugh, a loud laugh, a light laugh, or a disdainful laugh.

Moreover, each emotion can be combined in any way.

This requires a high level of control over the facial muscles.

Just like fitness training, facial muscles can't be developed simply through experience. These muscles need regular exercise to function properly, after all, this is a material world.

And naturally, the flexibility of facial muscles, just like fitness, depends on talent and genes.

It's like how some people can achieve an inverted triangle shape with just a little practice, while others need to persist for a year to achieve even a small success.

The boy in the previous life wasn't particularly talented in either physical training or acting.

As for the first half of my life, it seems pretty much the same.

However, the difference is that he now has a cheat code. Although the effect of the cheat code cannot be directly applied to his acting skills, as long as he works hard to make up for his shortcomings and improves in both areas, there is still hope.

As he thought about it, the muscles on the boy's face slowly began to tense up again.

......

For two days, apart from the initial disruption of his usual tranquility by Kikuchi, Sato's life was very regular. He ate high-protein, high-nutrient foods and did some recovery bodyweight training and facial and body muscle exercises in his rented room.

Although only two days have passed, my face is a little fuller than it was two days ago, and I feel a bit better overall.

Of course, muscles won't grow that quickly.

It's not like bad news is coming from the bodybuilding world.

It just looks like she's back to the state she was in before she got sick.

We still need to keep making progress.

"I'll still need to go to the gym when I have more money later."

However, his body is not in such good condition yet; bodyweight training is enough for him.

Sato put the soba noodles in his mouth, eating while thinking.

The buckwheat noodles didn't taste very good, and all that was added were eggs, tofu, fish, vegetables, and salt, with an apple added at the end.

Although it may seem bland, this meal is not cheap; it is an essential diet for recovery and maintaining good health.

Whether for his physical health or for the upcoming auditions, he needs to improve his physical fitness.

Of course, you'll also need a cheat code.

However, given the system's characteristics, it may require continued filming to reactivate.

Take on more roles, even minor ones, as they are opportunities.

Getting a character from the Shadow Legion would be ideal.

Thinking about it, the boy had already finished the noodles in his hands.

......

"The president has agreed to your request."

In the familiar office, Xiaochuan's voice was a little warmer than it had been two days ago.

And the gazes from the crowd were no longer so cold.

However, the office remained deserted.

"According to the information we handed over to the Shadow Legion production team, the audition is in a month. You should prepare well during this time."

"Thank you."

Upon hearing this, Sato felt a great weight lifted from his heart, but soon another, even bigger weight appeared in his mind.

The president agreed, but that was just the first step; the actual audition was what would happen next.

"But the rest is just hearsay. I heard that Kawasaki Yuta and Ando Kei will also be going."

As Ogawa spoke, his gaze became inquisitive as he looked at Sato's face.

The people she mentioned are all currently very popular, or rather, highly promoted idols or actors.

They were probably all aiming for this position so they could make contact with Shinichi Chiba.

If it were a teenager from before, they would probably feel embarrassed or even scared.

However, to her surprise, the seemingly transformed young man did not exhibit such emotions.

At least on the surface, it wasn't obvious; his face remained calm and composed.

"Thank you, I will try my best."

Sato nodded and said.

Ogawa's words were undoubtedly a reminder of the difficulty of this match and the need to make corresponding adjustments based on the opponent.

These are all acts of kindness from the other party, so of course I should say thank you.

Although there are more competitors, what he needs to do will not change because the audition is more difficult.

Besides improving my character portrayal and acting skills, I should also take some time to study my main competitors.

"Ah."

The boy does look different now.

Not only was his expression unreadable, but he also seemed to know that he was giving him a heads-up, and even said thank you.

He used to be an honest person, but he was a bit too old-fashioned.

Now it's no wonder the beach manager had high hopes for him.

It would have been even better if he had taken it this seriously sooner.

Whether it's her or Sato, time is running out for them to make a difference.

Chapter 10 Leveraging Resources

"Ogawa-san, I have one more request."

Sato's words interrupted Ogawa's thoughts.

"Go ahead, I'm listening."

Did they get a taste of the benefits from taking money before, so they came back again?

Thinking of his relative who had lost his wife and children because of his gambling addiction, Xiao Chuan felt a sense of unease.

"I'd like to borrow the TV here to watch the Shadow Legion's killing formation and the performances of those actors."

Although the fight scenes here are definitely not as intense as those on the other side of the sea, they can still be used as a reference.

Moreover, you need to know yourself and your enemy. If you haven't even seen Sonny Chiba's action scenes, why would you even bother auditioning?

Watching Sonny Chiba's action scenes, combined with one's own forward-thinking understanding, is the right approach.

At least that's how Sato sees it.

In any case, he wasn't an action star in his past life, so starting with something simple is perfectly reasonable.

As for his home, there was neither a VCR nor a television.

"Okay, go ahead, there's a TV in the lounge."

Upon hearing this, Ogawa's deep brown eyes widened slightly in the sunlight streaming through the window.

However, still shaken by the series of shocks Sato had given her, Ogawa maintained her mature and sophisticated demeanor and did nothing strange. She simply continued, "I'll have someone bring those videotapes over for you."

"Thank you!"

Looking at the whorl of hair on Sato's head as he leaned back, Ogawa subtly raised the corners of his mouth where Sato couldn't see.

It's definitely different now.

He wouldn't have been this proactive before.

But this is a good thing.

Perhaps, there really is hope, who knows?

"stamp."

"...Uh, Ogawa-san."

The boy, who felt Ogawa poke the top of his head with his fingertip, quickly stood up straight.

Naturally, this scene was witnessed by the people secretly observing, and immediately there were gasps of cold air, causing the central air conditioning to malfunction for a few seconds.

The look in their eyes as they gazed at Sato was filled with envy.

A mature, older woman, being treated like a younger brother by her.

What kind of comic book has this kind of plot?
