Chapter 2 - Awkward Bus Ride

'I wish to become handsome and beautiful'

[Are you sure?]

Jackson stared at what the system's final warning before he nodded. 'I am sure.'

The chat box suddenly expanded into a "Terms and Conditions", and Jackson stared in disbelief. He was meant to read all of that...Yeah no, he wasn't going to read that all, instead scrolling all the way down before checking the box that states he had read it all and accepts. 

[Transformation Incoming]

 A bright light appeared in his room blinding anyone that could be nearby. 

He felt a revitalizing feeling throughout his body, like his cells were getting nourishment, becoming stronger and purer. If he could describe the sensation, it would be when Cultivators broke through resulting in them releasing their impurities. 

This sensation lasted a few minutes, and the bright light finally faded leaving the room like it once was. Jackson immediately looked at the mirror and was shocked to see the results. 

His skin was smooth and luminous, with a gentle warmth that was seemingly being radiated by him. His eyes were a bright golden brown, framed by beautiful long lashes that most woman would be jealous of. 

His hair fell effortlessly; the black silky straight lines added to his charm. His features are harmonious and finely shaped: high cheekbones, a straight, graceful nose, and lips thin and gentle. 

It was like he had come out of a story where the male lead looked angelic. He touched his own cheek before pulling it slightly feeling pain. 'Holy shit, that's me. That's me!!!' 

Most Beautiful: Oh, my goodness! At first, I was disappointed at the fact that you chose an easy way out, but you look so beautiful. Even a Goddess like me is tempted to devour a man so cute like you. 

L God: What. This dude went from a 3/10 to a straight 20/10. Why can't I look like that? Also, should've just made yourself a chick magnet or wished for an item that would hypnotize woman.

L God: Gah, what I would for one that can hypnotize Goddess's, I would be able to play with their fun bags forever!!!

Even the Gods were jealous if what Jackson was reading was their true feelings. He had hoped that L God was joking around, but if he wasn't, he was a creepy ass God, still he wouldn't let this ruin his mood. It was amazing, beyond what he had hoped for. He was practically jumping. 

'Hahaha! I can't believe it man.' Jackson kept jumping up and down. His mind was feeling the biggest high that it had felt in all his life. He could not stop grinning from cheek to cheek. This was the most awesome thing that had occurred to him. 

"Jackson! Stop jumping on the floor! PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO SLEEP HERE!"

His mothers shout brought him out of his trance. "SORRY!" He screamed back, pushing his body into the bed. 

The night was going to be a long one.

Jackson was unable to get any sleep at all. He was way too excited for tomorrow, this resulted in him gaining eye bags under his eyes but that didn't do much, he was still handsome. 

L God: Excited for the big day?

Jackson: Why wouldn't I be?

Most Beautiful: Oh, don't worry, we are also excited. 

Jackson put on a black fitted turtleneck, with black trousers that complimented the turtleneck. Finally, he finished it off with black boots, it was an all-black day. He thought that he looked fantastic. 

Someone else thought otherwise.

L God: Emo ass clothing style. 

Ignoring the comment made by L God, he finished getting ready before leaving his room. 

Entering the kitchen, he saw his breakfast laid out in the table with his mother grabbing milk from the fridge and pouring some into a cup. "Oh, my beautiful son. Have some breakfast dear." She gestured to sit down on the table. 

He nodded externally but was weirded out by the fact that his mother had said nothing about his changes. Subtly he typed into the chat.

Jackson: Why isn't she reacting? Don't tell me that this is all a hoax.

L God: Wellll, we may or may not have had to rewrite her memories a little. Wellll, not just her but your whole family. 

Jackson: WHAT! Why?

L God: God...Hey that's me, anyways, you're an idiot man. Your family wouldn't believe that you went from being a 0/10 to a 20/10 in the span of a few hours. 

He gulped hearing what the God was saying, and it was making a lot of sense. A terrifying thought appeared in his mind, if they could do that, then what else could they do on Earth or hell on him? 

He ate up his breakfast thanking his mother for it and headed out the door with the bookbag that he had prepared beforehand. 

Jackson walked to the bus stop waiting for the bus to arrive. His mind was occupied with the fact that many of the people here kept staring at him. He wondered if they recognized him. 

His wonder was unfounded as nobody uttered a single word to him. Eventually the bus came and he sat in his usual spot next to his friend Kenneth. 

"Whoa whoa man. This spot is occupied." Kenneth said intending to guard his seat for his friend. 

Jackson laughed hard and he saw the confused expression on his friend. "Dude it's me. Jackson." 

"No shot."

His face was immediately grabbed by Kenneth who took his time to examine it thoroughly, before letting go. His friend's eyes wondered his entire body almost as if checking every nook and cranny. "No fucking shot, this is you Jackson, even your voice has changed man." 

L God: This shit is hilarious man, seeing his amazed face is making me laugh so hard man. 

Most Beautiful: No belief in my little mortal. 

"A lot can change during the summer man." Jackson said scratching the back of his head. It wasn't like he could tell his best friend that somehow, he had become the entertainment of actual Gods. He didn't even want to think about how the real existence of Gods could change the whole Earth. 

L God: Well, you could tell em. I can suspect that he would probably call the mental institution on you. 

Jackson tried ignoring the messages that "L God" was sending through the chat. It was 6am in the morning, too early to be dealing with this. 

"Gah damn bro. You look angelic. You about to get a lot of girls on your dick. Just make sure not to forget about me alright. We can run a two-man." Kenneth said winking repeatedly. "With our handsome looks, together we can get any girls." 

Jackson rolled his eyes playfully listening to his friend's words before a smile appeared on his face. "Bet" 

Most Beautiful: Oh my, your friend is such a bad boy. I love his confidence.

The bus ride went smooth aside from a lot of stares that Jackson was receiving. Nonetheless Kenneth kept telling him that he was just being crazy, sure people looked but they weren't staring at him like some piece of meat. 

Jackson scrolled through his phones uttering a little "uhuhuh" before going back to scrolling. He heard Kenneth scoff before going on his phone. 

Eventually the bus ride ended, and they arrived at their Highschool. 

"Washington Highschool" 

The prideful words on the entrance sprung much emotion on Jackson. Finally, his wish has been granted, and he would be able to have a new life. "Dude, why are you just staring like an idiot. Come on, we're about to be late." 

At the words that Kenneth told him, Jackson began walking inside the building moving towards his first class. Surprisingly Kenneth was going the same way and even stopping at the same class. 

"Let's go! We have the same class dude!!" Jackson erupted with happiness knowing that at least first period wouldn't be lame. 

Kenneth smirked at the idea. "Well, I'll go in first, I'm sure you're going to start with your stupid monologuing again." His tone was full of sarcasm, "See you in, bitch." He said before entering the classroom first. 

L God: I like that dude. He's so real like me. 

"psh, dick." Jackson muttered to himself. He wasn't going to monologue, rather he only needed to slow his beating heart. That's all. 'Don't be a pussy man, just go inside and act nonchalant. Easy.' He would not fumble the first day of his new life! 

His hand gripped onto the door and with a pull he entered the classroom. Confidence filled his body as he began his new life.
