Supreme artist system (new life old dreams)

I died .. not in a glorious way, like saving a kid from truck-kun or saving a family from a fire. No, I died while choking on a fucking sandwich hahaha, and now here I am pondering about my life in this vast white space while waiting for the god or goddess to come back.

When I arrived here a minion of the gods told me to wait for my turn and that my soul would reincarnate with the blessing of those said gods I don't know how much time has passed but I can feel it's been a long time.

Heck, I even recall every music I listened to and sang.. and as a music lover that's a hell lot of songs to sing, i also began to recall every movie TV series, and book I have watched and read, and I'm done!

'What should I do i think they forgot about me, well let me pass my life in a review mode then .'

My name is Ace Lotus Smith, my parents were big fans of Japan, and my dad was the biggest fan of their culture and manga, especially One Piece! The number of times I got picked up at school because of that is countless xD. At first, I hated that name but at 12 I started reading it, One Piece I mean, and oh my god did I love it it was beautiful in so many ways sure it was not perfect but like my mother said to me perfection is only in the love a mother as for their child, well... most of them she would say.

I had a great childhood, at 12 years old I dreamed of being able to draw comics, and then it changed the day I saw Pearl Jam in concert that day I wished I could sing to the world. At 15 I fell in love with an actress from a TV series and again my dream changed to become an actor and Mary this actress.

But all of them fell through... I had no talent in any of those, and sadly realizing it, I focused on my studies I was not the most brilliant man but I sure worked hard finishing high school with straight A's and then getting into a good college but even at this point I didn't know what I wanted to do.

So I did the only thing a child who is lost do, I followed my Moms to be close to her and became a pilot, my mother was a hostess so I joined her company, I flew all over the world and ate food from all over the world met people drank alcohol I never knew existed but something was missing ... my dreams, even with all the things I had done, saw and lived I always felt empty like a crystal vase people saw a nice shell but with nothing inside it was sad.

Maybe this is why I don't resent that sandwich for having taken my life, well not like it was his fault to begin with, more like the one who made it should have picked out the bone in the chicken, sigh.

I should have tried harder for my dreams, I realize now I was just scared of failure I could have stayed close to my dreams at least like being a producer a cameraman, or an editor but I just flew away from them heck I even became a pilot to be sure I could be as far away as possible from those thoughts hahaha.

At least I spent time with my mother and when my dad passed away I was there for her at home and work she was never alone I think I was a good son and she was the best mother a son could hope for, perfection except for her cooking ... it was awful I learn pretty young to be the one in the kitchen if I didn't want to have charcoal for dinner! As such I became a great cook plus with all the traveling I had done I learned the dishes of pretty much every country out there which gave me a lot of bonus points with my girlfriends, but since I was away most of the time our relationships never got past 1 or 2 years another sad part of my life.

While I was reminiscing all this, in another place a minion named Alex was talking with another god's minion, Gus!

-I'm telling you Gus we got too much work!

-tell me about it...

-I haven't had a day of rest for 33 years now i can't wait for the switch men 50 years of work and 50 years of leisure is great but sometimes I wish it would be a shorter cycle

-well it was always like this as long as I can remember so good luck if you want to change it, Alex!

-tsk I know I know

Suddenly the office became cold and both Gus and Alex turned around right in time to see Persephone walking through a portal.

-Dear Alex, always complaining as always why don't I make you a lesser god so you will never get a vacation?

-Boss, don't take it that way I'm just kidding life is good

With how nervous he was he didn't even realize that he had pushed his chair and desk way too abruptly and lying in plain view, there was a leftover soul page with no seal on it.

-OMG ALEX how can you be so careless and forget to hand this soul page to us

-I thought I had ... I don't know how it is here damn 33 years waiting this soul must be dead now.

-I will go see if that is the case and mind you my dear Alex I hope that is not the case because if it is you're in for a lifelong working situation without vacation!

Persephone left through the same portal she came from, while Alex was left with his mouth wide open still not believing it he turned to Gus,

-say Gus did this happen before?

-not to me ...but I've been told that Herbert from plane 56 has been working for 2000 years or so already... without vacation!

-NO

- Well let's pray that your soul is still sane and alive Alex.

Persephone looks a the soul page in her hand ... Ace Lotus Smith ... I hope you are still well.

Damn, it's a long wait just as I thought that a purple portal appeared in front of me "About the time I thought".

Persephone was stunned when she saw this soul " Why does it look like his soul got stronger and not weaker, did he meditate here the whole time without getting lost in his memory "Some souls can in fact strengthen here but it is rare. Our administrator of Soulpage comes here every 250 years for 20 years to do just that so they won't feel that much pressure from our godly body but this soul is here for the first time and managed to get his soul to grow. "Amazing"!

-cough cough Hi I am Persephone I am here for your next st...

-Excuse me Miss Persephone can I know how much time I've been waiting?

-..... Haha, you see humm my employee did make a little mistake, and hmm aaa .. it's been 33 years in human time perception. 'She said in a whisper'

- Damn this long no wonder I had the time to recall everything from my life even the music I had listened to, and the more I recalled them the more memory got.. unlocked like it was always there but buried very deep you know?

-You did that ('o')...you are interesting little Ace!

-ah you know me... of course you would know hahaha sorry.

-Hahaha yes I know your name and much more but I am still impressed by how you spent your time you may not have known this but what you did got your soul stronger way stronger than normally possible! That is also why you were able to recall your life perfectly and it is also why you can talk to me without feeling pressure!

-oohh is it because of this that I feel smarter?

-hehehe well yes!

-that's amazing!!! So what do I have to do now you will reincarnate my soul so I can be born again will I have my memories ...aaa probably not people would have talked about it much more if it was the case will I ha...

-Little Ace!

-aa yes yes?

-since we made a mistake and you were a good person I can give you 2 choices

1st choice like you said I will proceed normally I will reincarnate you without memories and for our mistake I will give you 3 gifts but you would not know what they are. The 2nd choice is much more fun I can give you 3 wishes and reincarnate you with all your memories! Since you were from the Earth we should normally reincarnate you to an alternate of your planet but I can let you choose where...

-That won't be needed i like the idea of an alternated earth and I could pursue my dreams unlike my first life ... which was probably not my first right?

-No it was not 'giggles'

-Alright I choose the second but I have a question do people choose the first option?

-well we do make mistakes, not a lot of them mind you but yes there are a couple of souls that choose this option !!

-their life must not have been easy to choose to forget all of it ...

-Yes! Alright, so I can guess you already know what wish you want.

-Hehe it would be a lie if I said that I didn't think about it but I am not sure what the restrictions are.

-Good question! I can't make you a god and you can't wish for more wishes!

-fair enough.. I wish to have a system like the novel and fan fiction I have read on earth the kind that makes me grow stronger in a field of my choosing with the mission, buying skills from the system store, and rewards ... I wanted an art system! a system that will help be a singer a writer or an actor if I wanted it or anything that touches art I want to be an Artist with a big A!

-Hehehe clever most people would have chosen only one field but you want to be an artist with multiple talents. Good choice.

-Yes thank you !!! For my second wish, I want a body as strong and healthy as you can make me and choose how I look like.

-Granted and with your permission, you just have to think about your look so that I can read your mind to know exactly what you want!

-Ok I'm thinking about it ...

-hehe my my my you sure are gonna be a heartthrob young Ace!

-I know right hahahaha !!!cough cough sorry I got carried away ('▪︎')

-I understand ( giggles) what about your third wish?

-I want to be crazy rich and keep my name I know it is lame to make a wish for this but I grew with it and came to love this name!

-You really did think hard about this (giggles) Alright I can make it happen!

-Thank you Persephone!

With that said persophone waved her hand and a bright purple light engulfed me for a brief instant before dying down.

-No need for thanks that's my job but it is appreciated little Ace! When you are ready just go through this portal and you will get reincarnated i just gave you all your wishes through my powers. So I wish you a good life!

-then I'm off thanks for everything!!

With that said I took a couple of steps toward the portal looked behind me waved at Persephone and smiled at her one last time before jumping right through it!

-what an interesting Soul (giggles) well now time for your punishment my dear Alex!

Alex who was waiting for his boss's return suddenly felt shivers all over his body!
