19 The Princess of Pop (1/2)

Even if you have said that, your curiosity won out in the end, and your eyes focus on the little girl. Her skillsets materialized in front of you, showing you all that you need to know.

”C-Rank Dancer. C-Rank Singer. A-Rank Vocal. D-Rank Acting…”

You continue to read her skillsets. It takes you a moment as the list is quite long. The one that stood out the most is the A-Rank Vocal.

At her age, it is remarkable. However, it is expected of the future Princess of Pop.

That is just an honorific title, but that doesn't make it any less important.

You smile as you confirm who she is. She is the idol of your mother's teenage years. Not your current mother, but your previous mother. You take a couple of second to remember her by, and you ponder how she is doing. She must have cried her heart out at your funeral.

”Britney Spears.”

You call for her attention from your seat. The girl looks at you shyly. Her parents are preoccupied with your friend and his boss to notice.

”Hello mister.”

”Why are you so nervous? There is nothing to be nervous about.”

She turns her head to have a look at her parents before returning her attention back to you. Just from that, you understand. She fears that she would disappoint her parents.

This road to stardoms is extremely harsh in this universe.

”Come here. Don't worry, I won't eat you. I promise.”

Britney giggles and approaches you. When she did, you take her hands and pats the back gently. Green ethereal mists seep out of your body and swirling around your arm and streaming towards your hand and jumps onto hers.

It enters Britney, very, very slowly.

You make sure of the rate of transfer since you didn't want a little girl to be stupidly horny.

”There is nothing to be nervous about. Don't worry about what your parents think and worry about what you want. So, what if you didn't make it? What if your voice isn't good enough? You will only fail if you give up. Continue to strive for what you love, and one day you will succeed.”

You give her encouragement while your life energy boosts her Singing skill up one rank. While it didn't seem much with your power, there is a huge different between C-Rank and C-Rank (+).

Your energy also put her into a calm, relaxing state. It is almost hypnotic.

When you notice that the nervousness and fearful status on the window fades and vanishes, you ask softly. ”Can you sing for me? There is no recording right, so sing any song that you like.”

Britney nods slowly as if she is in a trance and began to sing.

Greyish aura surrounding her the moment she did, and it shifts to white. As she increases the tempo, the white aura grows larger, encompassing the room.

You feel a sense of admiration as soon as the white aura touches your being.

Her beautiful voice captures the attention of everyone in the room. Her mother gasps and covers her mouth while her father is in utter shocked. They both had never heard their daughter sings that well before. Your friend Mark and his boss are speechless.

”Brilliant! Why didn't you sing like that before?”

Mark calls out once the song ended. Her parents immediately request Mark's boss to redo the audio recordings. However, Mark's boss shook his head.

”Sorry, but we don't have time for another take right now. You will have to make another booking and come back another time.”
