2 C2. First Transmigration Arc 1: That Would be your Name

YeBai finally is having his rest in the dimension that , ironically, has an ancient noble house of japan, as he was resting inside a spacious pavilion with only a pillow and a blanket around his body. It was three story high with a large pavilion that shows the odd yet relaxing seasons. He actually did not expect the Dimension to be look like a paradise at first yet his fatigue overcome him as he was not really able to appreciate the scenes before him. At the side was filled with lavender, roses, and other flowers he couldn't name but familiar with. A hot spring to the other side throughout the vast rocks and a frozen lake with mountain of sparkly snows around, like it was really meant to be there. The very side of the dimension were seasoned as summer, with vast of flowers that he first saw and freshly cut scents of grass. Both season facing each other as if in a competition of who is the best.

But even everything of that, a wooden door was at the very middle of two season was noticeable. Its was plain and boring. The definition of the Yi household.\

The wooden door suddenly opens, revealing a very tall man with pale skin and darkest black hair and eyes. The said man was wearing a butler suit with white gloves. Half of his face was covered with a black cloth yet anyone could still tell that he was a look that everyone would want. The man started to walk toward the pavilion where YeBai was resting. YeBai was still in the protagonist form sleeping peacefully, with soft blanket covers his 'tender' body.

" Host, wake up. 12 hours and a half already passed " The system -handsome- man said as he shook his host to wake up. Not long after, YeBai starts to stir up. He sat up but his hips still hurts making him groan. The system notices the discomfort of his host so he helped him sits up. YeBai mutters a thank you taking the warm soup from the system's hands. He slurp it in on go ignoring the bitter taste of it when he heard that it will heal his body pain.

After a few minutes his aching muscles starts to relax making him stretch his limbs, cracking every bone there's need to crack. Feeling relaxed, he look at the half covered face man in front of him. Not knowing what to say as he felt awkward.

" There's no need for Host to be awkward. One word and I will do what host's wants " The system says, looking down to the floor as if showing submission. But it only made YeBai felt more awkward. ' Come on think! ' YeBai thought, completely forgetting that the system could hear his thoughts.

"Um...could you tell me the plot" YeBai asks the system in front of him awkwardly. YeBai Actually felt inferior towards his system when it comes to looks the longer he observe the man in front of him. The system has a tall stature and a nice build that every women and men would want, and even though half of his face was covered in black cloth, he could still tell that the man has a handsome facade. Hah... how envious.

" Yes host. In this world, you are Zhou XiuYing , an underrated actor who is only become famous because of his looks. The man actually doesn't have a talent as people says but he has determination and hard work. The protagonist met the Male Lead and become his fuck buddy for quiet a long time. You are actually hoping to have a position in the Male Lead's company and was one of the reason why you stick to Male Lead. The Female Lead , who is a well known star as well as beautiful like what people said, somehow knew about you being the Male Lead's fuck buddy, as she was been watching the Male Lead from quiet some time, She ruined 'your' life as much as possible and destroy your only career and somehow got a dept to a loanshark that your father left before he passes away in the jail. You committed suicide because you could not handle it anymore as he has no one to turn to but the Male Lead, but when you knew that the Male Lead actually doesn't care for you, as a final straw, you killed yourself. The Female Lead and Male lead married through convenience, but the male lead never fell in love with the female lead though"

" What a bunch of bullshit. " YeBai mutters under his breath but the system still heard him as the system agreed with a nod as a small frown forming on its eyebrows. " I agree host. he could just find a decent job once the issue about him dies down, since he had a small saving that could last for 2 months, but it looks like he doesn't want to live anymore, he could just sell or donate his organs. " The system says in monotone voice yet YeBai could hear the sneer while he said that. YeBai nodded in agreement, criticizing harshly the character.' Life is indeed hard, but killing yourself is equivalent to turning back with your tail between your legs. No one would fight for you but yourself' He thought as if saying it from past experience.

Even though the Yi household was known for their simple life, when his father died, he had to lift his mother up and take care for his siblings as they become so poor. He had to work and work when he was just 18 in order to feed his siblings and his pregnant mother. He also had to stop his studies and sometimes when things got too hard he sell drugs to gangsters so that he could save up money for his baby sister that is inside his mother's womb. Thankfully his Uncle and Unties came back from overseas and help his family get on their own feet for a couple of months as he continue to study his missed lessons for the past few years as he work very hard to skip a few grades so that he could finish college sooner and work.

YeBai shook his head and look at the tall system in front of him with a smile, with his awkwardness long gone already.

" how about the missions? "

"Yes host," the system said as holographic tablet appears in front of YeBai

YeBai raises his left eyebrow when he read the last part. He lifted his gaze to the system in question. And as if sensing the curiosity of his host he simple said, " It's a motivation not to kill yourself, host" He said in monotone voice. YeBai look at him as if he was seeing two heads. " Then what's the point of putting it here if I do not gain a point?" he asks " Excuse my words, but...It's because its pointless and stupid" he meant, committing that after the host finished the main mission. Many host just finish the main mission and not the side tasks because its only optional.

" Then why is it here? " YeBai asks again. If its stupid then why even put it here?

"It's a motivation to not kill yourself" The system says again with a monotone voice.

The host look at his system's eyes with a blank face, a few moments after, YeBai laughs making the system look at him as if he was seeing a a gloomy person that laughs all of the sudden.

"System... do you have a name? " Yebai asks as he shove a mouthful of chips to his mouth. Leaving scrubs to his mouth.

"This System has no name, host. But you may give me a name if you want me to have one" The system in butler suit with half of his face covered, says with close eyes. As if he did not want to see the mess his host was creating to himself.

"Then...What is your previous name? I bet I am not you first Host, am i right?" YeBai says as he look at the closed-eyes man in front of him. YeBai raises his right eyebrow in confusion as to why the man is closing his eyes.

"This system had indeed previous hosts, in fact you are my 10th host, Host. Though I really don't have a name given by my previous hosts. Instead they call me One" The system says with his famous monotone voice as he finally open his dark orbs that would made everyone gasp at how dark they were. It was like a black hole was trying to suck you. Not even a slight of emotion could be seen at the man's eyes.

" Hmm " YeBai mutters as he think with his hand under his chin. ' If you call him One, that would be unoriginal of me... ' YeBai's thought was completely written on his face making the butler's eyes twitch bit at how open his new host.

"My Host, I suggest you to start mastering the available skills, especially acting. Your facial expression is so open that I could read what you are thinking like an open book. " The system says indifferently, YeBai look at the system in front of him with blank expression, yet curious eyes. His brunette hair swaying through the air as the wind passes by. Blinking at the man in front of him as if the words of the man just sunk in.

"Ah! you're right. But how long does it takes me to master Acting? Is it possible that I could also Master Intelligence/Scheming with Acting?" YeBai asks with a cute tilted head as he looks straight at the man's dark orbs, like he wasn't bothered by how dark it was.

" Mastering Acting would usually take 70 years to 120 years, But at your level, with no offense ,Host, it would probably took you 170 years to master acting. And Mastering intelligence would usually took 100 years to 200 years. But i guess my host is pretty smart so mastering it would only took 120 years for Host,-" ' is that a compliment?' YeBai thought, slightly offended, "--you would probably focus on mastering scheming than intelligence." The System says in detail. The no offense part made YeBai annoyed a little as he start calculating in his mind on how long would it take to the realm he was assigned.

" Host, if we use the Dimension, it would only last for a whole day in your assigned realm. Using the Dimension would make everything faster by 50% " The system says, sensing the slight panic of his host. YeBai's eyes shone like a star as he look at the reliable System in front of him.

" Thank you for the information, Sullivan " YeBai says to the system in front of him, making the tall man startled a bit at the sudden name he was given, dark orbs that was usually empty starts to have life. Eyes wide open in shock as he look at his owner in front of him. A slight of emotion could be seen at the man's dark orbs...emotion of whirlpool of happiness and slight confusion.

Wind passes by between them as Sullivan's neat ponytailed hair, sways with the wind whilst his butler suit almost wrinkles at the harshness of the wind yet Sullivan's smile was unwavering and sincere.

Suddenly, the System kneels with one knee on the ground whilst his other supports his hands that were both clasped like how a korean servant in history drama would greet his king. YeBai was startled at the man's sudden action, as he himself wants to kneel to and help the other stood up, but before he could do that, Sullivan suddenly speak. " Thank you for giving me a name, Host! I will do my everything to match your demands" Sullivan said with respect evident on his voice.

Though YeBai was still a bit shock at what the man did, yet he still smiles down at him and patted the head of the kneeling man, as if he was telling the system he worked hard from the start until now.

" Sure! Then that would be your name."
