Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku.

Seeing the prompt before him, Sato's enthusiasm grew even stronger.

This Shinichi Chiba is not only the lead actor in Shadow Legion, but also the martial arts choreographer.

He must have taught me most of the moves.

His increased comprehension just happened to fill the gap in his lack of skill.

"Your body is still not strong enough. You need to work harder in the future and not slack off."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep up with our pace."

Chiba's comment interrupted the young man's excitement.

"Yes."

Sato nodded.

He was only specializing in sword-drawing techniques; otherwise, he wouldn't have only managed to exchange three or four blows with Chiba after a whole month.

In reality, his talent was only at the level of an average person.

But now he has a cheat code.

"I'm wondering if we can start training earlier."

"I want to continue improving everything, including my physical fitness!"

Sato said seriously.

The new skill is to increase comprehension.

If Chiba teaches him to work out, it should be effective.

In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person, and his knowledge of fitness was limited to what he learned at school.

Chiba, in front of us, is a leading figure in Japanese action films.

Therefore, while Chiba is currently satisfied with him, we should maximize the effects of the new cheat system as much as possible.

All of this revolves around one goal: to grow as quickly as possible.

A brief silence fell over the room after Sato spoke.

Chiba's lack of a smile gives off an aura of immense pressure.

"Can."

Chiba didn't finish his sentence, his face becoming even more serious: "However, I don't allow mid-term withdrawals here, so be prepared."

"Of course, I can also assure you that as long as you strictly follow my instructions, your physique will be no less than that of my disciples."

"OK!"

Sato bowed more deeply this time than before.

That's the proper etiquette when addressing a teacher.

Chiba smiled again at the boy's actions.

He was serious about everything he said, and Sato could see that seriousness in his eyes as well.

Whether the young man can persevere in the future depends on himself.

Investing in it will be like reaping the rewards of your own efforts in the future.

Come to my club next week.

"I hope what you say goes as you do."

Chiba waved his hand.

This can be considered a preliminary acceptance of Sato.

The others behind Chiba looked at each other in dismay.

Their gazes towards Sato softened in unison.

Hardworking young people are endearing.

It all depends on how well the other person performs during filming.

They would certainly be happy to see things progress steadily.

"Yes!"

Having achieved his goal, Sato paid no attention to his surroundings, nor did he expect that he would not be able to persevere. He simply suppressed his inner excitement.

He could even endure the pain of near death, so the prerequisites that Chiba mentioned were practically non-existent in the boy's eyes.

This time, by coming to audition on my own, I not only successfully achieved my first goal after my rebirth, but also escaped being an extra and got a formal role.

They even made initial contact with Chiba.

A bright future was one step closer to him at this moment.

......

"It's okay, keep trying."

Just a few steps from the room, Tanabe, who was next to audition, also saw the boy with his head down and offered a rare word of comfort.

Of course, his words still carried an air of arrogance.

He offered words of comfort because the other person did seem to be getting better lately.

The young actor was indeed quite good at playing a dead person, just like in the filming of the previous movie, which effectively highlighted the existence of the protagonist.

Based on the audience's reaction after the movie's release, it wouldn't be a bad idea for him to use it again.

Not to mention that if he succeeds in the audition here, he will definitely become more and more popular in the future. The company also said that if he passes the audition and is popular with the audience, they can arrange a Toei film with a larger investment for him.

Then, he can ask Sato to play a tragic dead man, which will better highlight his role.

Therefore, there's no need to make things too tense; the two aren't really enemies.

As for Yakushimaru, he clearly didn't fancy the boy, so he wouldn't be so jealous as to get jealous over something like this.

"...Thanks"

Upon hearing this, Sato snapped out of his daze, paused for a moment, and then nodded.

He hadn't expected that this Tanabe was actually quite mature and would play the appeasement game with him.

However, it doesn't matter much anymore.

Sunlight streamed through the window and shone brightly into the boy's eyes.

Regardless, what he needs to do next remains unchanged: to strengthen his body, improve his control over his muscles, and enhance his acting skills.

He has already achieved his first goal. Next, he needs to take on leading roles and accept the role of GG, using this opportunity to increase his popularity and solidify his position.

The Shadow Legion is just the beginning.

......

In a garden below Toei Building, Yakushimaru walked along, looking dejected.

Despite the scorching sun, a heavy drowsiness lingered on the girl's eyelids.

Wearing sandals, her little feet moved with a slight gait, kicking back and forth among the yellowed fallen leaves. Her pink toenails adorned her feet like tiny flowers, making one want to be a little abrupt.

Of course, this does not include Sato, who happened to run into the other party at that time.

"Yakushimaru-san?"

The boy's voice came from behind the girl.

"Hmm? Sato."

Turning around, Yakushimaru recognized the person and stopped her childish behavior. However, she wasn't shy; she simply raised her delicate little hand and yawned.

A hint of pink could be seen between the girl's fingers.

"I never expected to meet you here, it's my honor."

Sato withdrew his impolite gaze and replied.

Responding to Sato's words, Yakushimaru still looked somewhat dazed, as if he hadn't woken up yet, which, combined with his round cheeks, made him even more adorable.

Why are you here?

"Today's audition."

Sato explained.

He had just come out and was planning to go out the back door to do his workout for the day, when he ran into Yakushimaru, who was kicking grass.

Although it's childish, the way it creates the atmosphere of a young girl, like an anime heroine, is surprisingly charming and innocent.

"An audition? The Shadow Legion?"

Perhaps due to lack of sleep, the girl looked a bit tired compared to the last time we met.

"Yes"

Sato was already used to the other party's seemingly indifferent or even ambiguous attitude.

She wasn't targeting herself; she just didn't like the entertainment industry.

Although I haven't spent much time with Yakushimaru, it's quite obvious that he's not interested in certain things.

"Did it go smoothly?"

Upon hearing this, Yakushimaru felt a little more awake and his eyes widened.

Looking at the young man in front of her, who was much better looking than a month ago, she felt even more curious.

Whether he suddenly became enlightened or something else, he transformed from a skinny, monkey-faced man into a dashing young man in just one month.

Although she had seen many handsome men, the young man's appearance was much more striking than her previous one.

It seems he's now got a job with the Shadow Legion, so we might actually see him here more often in the future.

Thinking about this, the girl's original interest continued to grow.
