What Tyler didn't know was that this little activity of kicking the beta out of the scene helped him a great deal. It was because the system had played a sneaky role this time. They told Tyler that they would put up restrictions on him and the male lead, but they didn't tell him that they would also make another dangerous decision.
They chose another option for his senior: character mode. This option was unique because it was different from the usual hard mode and soft mode. Tyler had been initially transmigrating from one world to another using the hard mode, which indicated that he would be the villain in every world and suffer a tragic death. In contrast, the male lead hadn't chosen any more while entering. Of course, his entrance into this transmigration system was unique.
But this time, the system sneakily gave the male lead a mode without asking him or Tyler. In this mode, the person who takes the person's body in a world would become that character. They would even have 'fake' memories of those characters within their minds until the end of that world.
So that typically meant that his senior, who was supposed to be a transmigrated person that had lost his memories, suddenly thought that he was the second prince of the Empire. And the sneaky system also made sure to hide after finishing with this.
About the power, the team of higher-ups thought and decided that they would provide Tyler with all the information about the power since they already knew that this person would go OOC after 50% of the storyline was finished.
They suddenly regretted their decision to inform and urge the male lead to help them in such a dire time. If not for this person, they wouldn't have faced so many problems while getting back Tyler's power and bringing that person back to life.
But they couldn't do anything about it since things had already taken a worse route. Now, Tyler was stuck in the transmigration system, but the male lead could not come out because of a similar reason. And now, the higher-ups had to hire double employees than before to keep the two big shots alive!
They couldn't help but glare at the screen before their eyes.
On the other side, Tyler successfully got the job, and he became the lead singer, but he requested one thing before joining.
"Please let me wear a mask on the stage. If my identity were to be public, your bar would simply be forced to shut down."
The manager of the bar was skeptical, but he agreed to Tyler's requests. After all, this person was a great singer that they had not encountered for many years! How could they just let him go so quickly? So they nodded happily, allowing this person to wear a mask.
So by the time the next day occurred and the second prince arrived at the bar, he didn't see the beta disguised as an omega on the stage. Instead, he saw an unfamiliar boy with silky jet black hair sitting on the stage with a guitar. His gentle eyes glanced at the audience, pausing for a brief moment at the male lead before he smiled and sang the first stanza in his magnetic voice.
Lucas Cohen, who was the son of Emperor Peter in the Cohen dynasty, couldn't help but freeze seeing that gaze. This guy on the stage wore a silver-colored mask that covered his eyes and forehead, only leaving his rosy lips with a touch of lip gloss that shone in the light.
At this time, the male lead squinted his eyes and continued to stare at that figure as the man sang on the stage. He didn't know who this person was, but for some reason, his heart couldn't help but thud against his chest seeing that person sitting beneath the stage lights, singing a love song with a guitar.
It almost felt like a beautiful scene from an anime!
It seemed that he had boldly stared at the man for a long time. The bartender suddenly voices out his name. "Prince Lucas, fancy seeing you here. I heard that your legal partner ran away."
When Lucas heard that, his expression changed and became darker than usual. Even though he knew that he should hate such a person who ran away from him, he couldn't help but feel irritated seeing that his 'wife' wanted to be away from him! He couldn't help but feel the urge to capture that person and shut him off in his house!
"I'm not here to talk about him!" Lucas took a deep breath to calm himself and said, "Who is that lead singer? Haven't seen him here."
Since no one ever saw Victor's face, it wasn't strange that neither the managers nor employees of this bar could recognize Tyler's identity. So even the bartender didn't know about this person. In fact, Tyler boldly gave the bar manager his real name when they asked to sign the contract.
The bartender grinned. "That's Tyler. We hired him just yesterday!"
For some reason, Lucas's heartbeat quickened when he heard that name 'Tyler' and couldn't help but glance at the stage to stare at the man. But it turned out Tyler was also watching him. For a brief moment, both of their eyes met as they stared at each other before the latter reluctantly lowered his head and played the guitar for a bit before finishing his song.
Tyler bent down to pick up the guitar case behind him as his shirt went up, revealing a fair, slim waist. The male lead's eyes couldn't help but darken when he saw that. He instinctively wanted to rush on the stage and pull the shirt down to hide that delicious waist from the sneaky eyes of the single men of the bar. But he couldn't. So he glared at those men who were also eyeing Tyler with lusty eyes.
The bartender noticed this kind of angry expression on Lucas's face, and an amusing smile appeared on his face. "Do you want to meet him?"
