Sam's physic used to be normal, he wasn't fit but was neither big nor slim too as he carried heavy boxes as a part time job for three years now. He was also pretty tall from his culminating 190 centimeters (6 feet 3 inches), now that his body shape was upgraded he gave off a strong and manly feeling. He looked at himself in the mirror and a big smile appeared on his face, even his facial feature seemed a bit better now as his jawline was not pronounced.
He tried putting on a tee shirt but the bulging muscles made it tight for him to put it in, he would have to buy a size above from now on. Until his next shopping session he would have to put on some oversized shirts. After finally getting tired of looking at his new body he went to do breakfast and next went to wake Em up.
While they were eating breakfast Sam saw that Em seemed a bit down as she didn't eat very much and her mind seemed elsewhere.
"What'up Em' ? You seem a bit low, did something happen at school ?"
She looked at him with tearing eyes and replied
"Next week there is that sport contest at school and everyone will be participating with their dads or moms..."
Of course he understood the meaning behind her words, he felt bad for this little girl. He had grown up with his parents until 3 years ago but she probably didn't even remember their faces as they had died when she was 4 years old. He hugged her and whispered "Don't worry baby, big brother will be here with you ! I'll skip university and come with you."
Em finally flashed a big smile
"Big brother is the best ! I love you !!"
he wiped her tears and kissed her on the cheek. She ended her breakfast in a very happy mood while watching a cartoon on TV and then was sent to school by Sam.
Today Sam didn't have class but he'd have to go to his part time job, he worked as a mover and had to carry heavy boxes and furniture for a living. He had 4 days free of classes in the week so he worked full time on these days instead of working after class, he had proposed the idea to his boss and his boss didn't even think about it and answered yes. The boss was an old friend of his dad and he took care of the siblings as much as he could after their parents had died.
Sam was greeted by all his coworkers when he went in the local, he had worked with them for 3 years now and all of them were good friends, after changing into his work clothes, a navy blue overall and old brown boots he went with the rest to wait for the boss to dispatch them on their missions. After a few minutes the boss's secretary came over, she was a chubby cute girl around the age of Sam. She wasn't only a secretary, she was also the boss's daughter and she was an old friend of Sam, Emma. They had went to the same school from the primary school to the high school but she stopped her studies after high school as she already had a work in her dad's company. "Sam, the boss want to talk with you." She said with a cute smile, when she and Sam were on the road to her dad's office she looked curiously at him and asked "You seem different... did you gain weight recently?" This was exactly what he was wary of, would the people around him realize he had changed from a day to the next ? He didn't mind Em as she was still young and wouldn't mind these details but the rest would definitely think it was weird so he answered "Yeah I've been eating healthy and training a lot lately and I'm finally starting to see the results of my hellish training." With a big smile and she didn't think much of it she just looked a bit more at the changes with a bit of blush on her cheeks...
When Sam got into the office he was greeted by his boss and dad's old friend, Oscar. He had called him uncle Oscar since young as he was very close to his father, way more than his real uncle which he had met only once when he came to their home a few years back.
Uncle Oscar looked at him guiltily and said "Sam take a seat, want a drink ?"
Sam saw that look in his eyes and realized that something happened or was going to happen so he just sat down and answered "I'm fine uncle Oscar, what did you call me for ?"
Uncle Oscar seemed to hesitate and finally launched himself
"I.. I'm sorry Sam. I know your situation but mine isn't that good too, it's a hard decision but I had to take it for the benefit of the company... the company is dismissing a few workers because we can't pay them anymore. We're keeping only a few full time workers."
He didn't need to end his sentence, he wouldn't call Sam to tell him this if he wasn't amongst the dismissed workers.
Even though Sam was ready to head a bad news this one was definitely the worse he could hear at the moment. This work was his only source of income, if he lost it he couldn't even pay his rent. He had to do something but uncle Oscar was closed to any negotiation. Sam left the company dejectedly, as the owner of the company was his uncle he would pay him more than any other place for the same amount of work...
After a while Sam was home lying on the couch and thinking of what he could do now.
Even after thinking for a long while he couldn't think of a job that could pay him enough, the jobs he was the most qualified to do were physical ones like carrying or moving heavy things, even more since he had gotten the +10 strength points that he didn't even have had time to try.
After thinking about a lot of unconvincing alternatives he was about to give up for the moment when a voice resounded in his head, this voice made him happy just hearing it.
[System awakening - Master please make a choice :
- Level 1 singing skill book.
- Level 1 writing skill book.
The system is nearing the required energy to wake up completely, please be patient master.]
This notification came right on time, Sam was thinking where or who did this heaven sent gift came from when a pop up appeared in front of him. Both skills could help him make money, Sam had heard that people on YouTube made good money if they did enough clicks... if his singing skill were up to par he could make a place for himself on that platform and if there was a level 1 book there was obviously next levels books so he could definitely do well in that domain. He could also write a book and sell it but would a rookie's book sell enough ? And even if he sold enough writing a book wasn't a one day story. For the songs it was easier as he didn't have to sing his own songs but could make covers. Sam hesitated for a bit before clicking on the singing skill book.
Now the question was if a Level 1 book was enough to make him famous, a lvl 1 boxing book was around the same as a black belt taekwondo user. He guessed a lvl 1 book was around the level of a very good amateur or a rookie professional, this was only in the case where all the lvl 1 books gave the same amount of experience and technique.
Now Sam has to find a cheap recording studio to rent for the shortest time it would take him to record his first song. He went in his room and turned on the old computer, it was an old model from Dell. It took around a minute to completly launch, he first went on YouTube to check other people's cover and to inspire himself, he couldn't do a bad job as it would definitely reduce his view count if the video was of a bad quality. Then he went on the internet browser and checked for the studios not to far and called them to check their prices. Finally he found one, now he needed a camera of a good enough quality but when he checked the prices they ranged from 600€ to exorbitant prices like 3000€. And those were only the amateur materials, he preferred not to check the professional ones. The price was too much but he found a site where he could buy it in many times so the price was divided in 4. He went on and ordered his camera, for the next few days he got the rest ready, he chose the song he wanted to cover and started training his singing.
