Super actor reborn

After being dropped, my book is now being launched again under a new name: 'Second Act: My New Life With a System.' I've put a lot of effort into rewriting it, so I think you'll enjoy it if you were a fan of the original. If you weren't, still give it a shot, I'm sure you will like. Though my opinion may be a bit biased lol

I'm a baby boy.

10 days later

These days I had nightmares of me on that dark room, I was feeling repented about something, but I don't know about what I was repenting.

Feels like there's a mist covering this memory, to be honest, I really don't know if it's a memory or just my brain tricking me.

The good thing is, I finally got used to control my body, being honest still seems unreal, but I really had a second…

— Honey, Lee peed on bed again — A woman said, actually, she's my mom, my new mom.

Shitty body, I can't take this shame anymore, I just want to grow up soon.

I still don't understand, but somehow I reborn, and I have a family now.

My mom is a true beauty, she has long blond hair, green shining eyes, her body is perfect, honestly, my dad is a lucky man.

Talking about my dad, he's an entrepreneur, he runs an I.T company, he is always busy at work, but seems he really loves me.

He's the definition of a nerd, black hair, skinny as a skeleton, big dark circles below his eye, using a sweater and round glasses.

Whenever he's at home, he teaches me math, yes, he's teaching math to a one-month baby. He's really one of a kind, in both good and bad way.

[Quest: Mom's little baby.]

[Description: Act like a cute baby to gain affection from your parents.]

[Reward :Acting Lvl1.]

Quest? What is this? Am I seeing things because of this baby body?

[The host body is in perfect condition, the only apparent problem is the lack of intelligence.]

'AHN? Who do you think you're talking to? Say that again.'

[The little baby got nervous, look how cute, he-he]

'I don't even know you, why are you such a pain in the ass?'

'Hey, who are you and how you're talking in my head?'

[Finally, using some of your lacking intelligence, let me formally present.]

[I am the Acting system, assigned to you, who has been recognized as the worst actor of this century, to help you become the greatest actor in your world.]

'What the heck you're talking? Who's the worst actor?'

[As a way to encourage the host to progress in becoming a better actor, the system will give you missions and reward the host when completing them]

'Don't pretend you don't listen to me!'

When I was about to complain more about him, I remembered of the quest reward.

'How good is this LVL 1 acting?'

[Better than your low amount of brain cells think, the host's status was level 0 at acting]

[it's amazing that even a baby is born knowing the acting skill, but the host managed to be the first person to have a level 0 acting]

Listening to this, my moth opened wide open, I really had level 0 on my past life? Damn me, I was really worse than I thought.

'So does that mean I might be able to improve if I complete this mission?'

I asked that to the system, because in the slight chance of it be possible, I'll turn this world upside down with my acting.

[Yes]

That answer changed everything to me. Perhaps you'd asked yourself: Why is he so desperate about acting?

The answer is simple: That's what saved my life, but what ruined it too.

I was a great singer, if I had to be honest, everyone around me always said that I had potential to be a great singer, especially with the rise of internet, where I did not need to show my face.

Why I wouldn't show my face? I'm ugly. Nothing more than that, I really don't like mirrors, because every time I look at one I remember how I am.

I could be a great singer, but when I was a child, I got in an accident with a molester.

She was a neighbor of mine, she said that what we did was just a game, but I could not tell my parents, and so I did. As I was growing up, I got each day more depressed, until that day.

I reluctantly went to watch a new movie with mom, I think I was 12 at that time, it was about a superhero who wore his pants under his underwear.

I can't explain why, it's kinda silly, but that guy who came from another planet gave me strength to go on.

As days were passing by, I realized I couldn't be a superhero like him, superheros don't exist, that was what my mom said.

I didn't give up, if superheros don't exist, so I would be one, even if it was acting, and so I did; But I was terrible at acting, and what happened next I think you can imagine.

While I was waiting for my father to come back, I heard something from TV, and somehow I've felt related to it.

— Here I am on Starlight Street in Star fall City where a man jumped out of a building and ended his life, as we investigated he had no family, friends and was an unsuccessful aspiring actor. — A reporter said, his voice seemed sad.

— it seems that he finally got the attention he wanted — Then the reporter voice changed, it was full of mockery when he said it.

'Um? E- Is that me? So I really died, huh? Well, at least it looks like I have a chance to try again.'

'Why am I thinking I really died? I'm in another body, it's obvious I died.'

'I must try my best, I don't want to live a life similar to my previous one.'

"I'm here, honey, I'm going to start changing his diaper now."

While he was changing me, I tried my best to say 'Daddy'.

"Da-da-"

My parents began to look at me with eagerness, especially my father.

— Da-da-Daddy —I said, and I, with my little hands, grabbed his index finger.

— He said Daddy, did you hear? HAHA, it looks like he loves me more — Dad hugged mom, he gave her such a bear hug, but she looked unsatisfied.

— Humph, he's just saving my name because it's prettier — She looked at dad with anger, but seconds after she stopped pretending.

I think even my mother realized that what she said doesn't make sense, because a few seconds later her face turned red like a tomato.
