Showbiz 3-Penance

[One, two, ....]

"Okay, okay! I accept! I accept!" Gian replied loudly.

[Good choice. Gian Everest, everything about you in your previous life has been erased. Now, you are Lux Osiris. Showbiz system has been synchronized]

Gian really hoped that this was a dream, but his little heart was very sure that the magical thing he was experiencing was a reality. There was no need for him to slap his face, or do other silly things to prove he was not dreaming. Moreover, he did not want to scratch Lux's beautiful skin even a little.

Although his name was erased, the memories were not. The man tried to keep thinking positively. Gian took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly with his eyes closed. He looked at his new face in the full-length mirror with a flat face.

"I have nothing left. My life is ruined. My dreams are gone. I'll follow your terms," he said sounding desperate.

[Gian Everest is a man with a strong will. Steadfast, sociable, confident, adaptable, humorous, not easily discouraged, not afraid of failure, likes challenges, and loves his family very much. In addition, you are talented. If your good traits are combined with Lux Osiris' physique, you will become a perfect man]

Suddenly, Z's words seemed to raise the flames of his spirit that had dimmed. Gian stood proudly challenging the moon from the window.

"Yes, you're right! I am that kind of man!" he said firmly. "Then... what should I do? Let's say, all of this is to make amends to my mother and younger siblings," he asked curiously. "Yes, penance."

[The first mission. Lux Osiris was a public figure. So far, everything he did was organized by his manager, Marbella. Your task is, to make Lux's behavior and attitude change, but not to erase his identity as a nobleman's son and a public figure. Make Lux Osiris loved, respected, and recognized by the people around him. Target : 100 people]

"100 people?" asked Gian a little doubtfully, but after seeing Lux's figure who radiated an aura like a prince from a fairy tale, he was sure that it would be easy to do. "How will I know if it has met the target?"

[The system will show it when you manage to get at least one recognition out of a target of 100 people]

Gian nodded his head and began to understand the performance of the system. "I think, I'm starting to like you, Z. I always fantasize about being like Lux. Then, if I succeed, what will be my reward?" asked Gian squinting.

[The system will provide health insurance for your brother Justin. The system knows he has an allergy to all kinds of proteins. The milk he consumes cannot be afforded by your mother in her current condition. If you successfully complete the mission, the milk, vitamins, hospital fees, medicine, and everything related to Justin's health, will be covered by the system]

Instantly, Gian's eyes were wide open. Honestly, he was even more curious about Z because he knew about his family's life. However, he was also grateful that his family was helped by that intangible figure. Gian felt that this was God's plan for him as a way to help his family, even though he never seemed to exist in their lives.

"That's it? Nothing else?" asked Gian who felt that the mission was very easy.

[The duration of the mission is one week]

"What if it fails?" asked Gian curiously.

[The system will gradually reduce Lux Osiris's physical perfection when you are deemed to have failed to complete each given mission]

Gian's brow furrowed instantly. "For example?"

[The more failures you make, Lux will have a physique like Gian Everest. Thin, dull skin, acne, hair tangled and falling out, teeth ....]

"Okay, okay! I understand, I understand! Stop stressing me out!" he shouted irritably as he felt guilty to Lux if that really happened. He held Lux's hair and felt his skin to make sure it was still perfect.

[Say : I'm ready to accept the mission 'Lux Osiris' transformation' to start with]

Gian clucked in annoyance. "I don't like your voice. Change it," Gian pleaded gruffly as he looked at the pink moon that made him always want to stare at it.

[Request accepted. Voice change]

Gian was silent for a moment. Many things went through his head.

[How is it? I think, this voice is right for you]

"You did it on purpose! I hate my father! Why did you use his voice!" Gian shouted angrily. He wanted to beat Z up, but he didn't know where he was.

[What about now?]

Instantly, Gian's anger subsided. His face fell suddenly. He smiled slightly and nodded then.

"I like it," Gian replied quietly after hearing Z's voice change into a sexy female.

[Voice change confirmed]

"Alright, I am ready to accept the mission of 'Lux Osiris' transformation'."

[The first mission begins. The mission will end in 7 days. Friday, 8 p.m. Luna planet time]

"Wait, what did you say, Planet Luna? Does that mean I'm not on Earth?" asked Gian as he looked around.

[Planet Luna is almost similar to Earth. The life on it is almost similar. Scientists in your world have yet to discover this place. That said, you're the first Earthling to live on this planet]

Gian was stunned. He wanted to cry, but the damn tears were too much to shed because of something that seemed futile to him. His heart was tired of continuing to lament his fate which would end in some way. His only thought at the moment is to save his family's economy.

Gian let out a long breath. His eyes looked back at the moon that caught his attention. He felt comfortable with the color of the moon which looked different even though it had a creepy impression. The reflection of its light gave the impression of mystery around it.

Gian, who wanted to hurry up and complete the mission so that his younger brother Justin could get health insurance, immediately took a shower. Who would have thought, Lux's body muscles are very solid. He even has beautiful abdominal muscles. His hands looked big and his fingers were sturdy. It made Gian amazed because he never had a body like that. He also didn't feel awkward when touching every part of that handsome man's body.

"How old is Lux?" Gian was curious because there was no mustache or fine hair on his face when he looked in the mirror.

[25 years old]]

"Oh, is it possible that because he is 5 years older than me, his is bigger?" asked Gian as he held Lux's mighty manhood while grinning widely.

[Maybe]

"He's so handsome. Yes, this sounds strange because I'm complimenting another man. However, this is a fact. His hair is smooth and shiny," Gian praised as he combed Lux's long hair with his fingers. "Heh, compared to those four spoiled men, you guys are nothing!" he added irritably as he remembered the men he had mentored to improve their acting skills.

Gian looked back at his new figure in the mirror naked. There was no blemish at all on that beautiful body. He did some poses like a bodybuilder to show off his prowess. Using Lux's face to try out some expressions to look attractive like an idol.

Gian then saw the scissors that were placed along with the comb beside the sink. When he intended to cut it, Z spoke again which made Gian stop his action.

"Hairdresser? Yes, Lux is a noble. It was only natural that he had a beauty team. Huff, sorry, Lux. I almost made your beautiful hair a disaster," said Gian feeling guilty who then chose to get dressed immediately.

Gian who liked Lux's body because it looked manly and powerful, deliberately did not cover his manhood because he was alone in that big room. He let Lux's body free without a single piece of cloth while exploring every corner of the room.

Marcos' son was amazed because of Lux's huge collection of clothes when he entered a room. He was confused about what to wear because everything looked expensive and elegant. However, he then remembered the system's request which asked him to change Lux.

"Hem, I know what to do with the new Lux. Get ready, world," Gian said with a cheeky smile.

Sure enough, just as Gian was getting ready, he realized the broken glass in front of his bedroom door. He who was used to cleaning the house, did not make it difficult when cleaning up the mess he made.

"Hopefully I won't be asked for compensation for breaking the statue earlier," he said softly after realizing that Lux's room had many displays.

When Gian took Lux's body out of the room, he was stunned to see the servants waiting outside the door. They were lined up near the wall facing each other. However, the servants were also surprised to see their young master emerge after being confined to his room for several days.

"Yo-Young Master Lux?" called one of the male waiters with glasses.

Gian paused for a moment looking at the waiter intently. Lux's memories of the people he knew appeared.

"Hi, Yoga. Is... dinner ready?" asked Lux politely.

"Yes, Young master Lux. Mm, are... are you alright? It's been three days, you haven't left your room. The doctor said ...."

"I am my own doctor. So, do you trust the doctor more or me?" asked Lux looking at the man who looked to be in his forties sharply.

"Pardon me, Young master Lux!" he said frantically and immediately bowed.

"There is no need to be so formal. This place already feels crowded with all kinds of rules. So, let's make it casual," Lux replied casually who then invited the servants standing in a row to the dining room.

The ten servants were confused, but complied. They stared at each other and chose silence because their young master's demeanor changed. Lux tied his hair up like a ponytail. He wore a sleeveless T-shirt and long pants that were all matching black. Usually, Lux did not speak. He just stood still and walked away with a flat face. Never saying hello, let alone talking like that. It's amazing!

The dining room of Osiris' residence.

"Why are you standing there? Do you intend to make me a spectacle like a food product advertisement? Sit down and eat with me," Lux commanded as he brandished a knife to slice his steak.

"W-we... we are not fit to sit with you, Young Master Lux," replied a maid nervously.

Lux let out a long breath. He who was used to eating with his family, now had to eat alone and be looked at by many people.

"Sit and eat with me. Refuse, you will be fired!"

Suddenly, Lux's words made the maids and servants panic. They finally sat down despite looking awkward. Lux smiled, even putting some food onto the plates of the servants who came within his reach.

"Young master, are you really healthy? The doctor said ...."

"Doctor, doctor, doctor! Who is that doctor? Find me with him!" commanded Lux irritably.

"I'm here, Young master Lux," said a person who made Lux's eyes widened.

"You're ...." 

'No, he's not Joseph. However, he is very similar. The difference was that this doctor had a bald head and was younger.'

"Yes, I am your personal physician, Young Master Lux. Doctor Bone," he said reluctantly.

Lux stared at Bone sharply and then stood up to him. Everyone was tense because the young master they used to be, had never acted like this. Like... challenging the royal physician.

"What is your diagnosis of my health?"

"You are depressed. Maybe that's why your attitude has changed like this," he replied calmly.

Lux smiled wryly. "I like depression. I like my changes. So, get used to it," Lux replied as he advanced his face right to the fat man's face.

The maids were surprised because of Lux's words just now. The doctor was speechless when he saw the young man who usually only nodded when he told him about his illness, now dared to speak.

"We'd better do a follow-up examination, Young master Lux," he said with a tense face.

"You'd better go home, Doctor. You look tired. Did you stay up for three days to decide whether I'm dead or not?"

Suddenly, Lux's words made everyone stunned.
