30 He made it to the finals ! (1/2)

Watching a young girl dancing on stage he remembered Em and started to feel bad, he left her for so long already. The last time he had left her alone was only for one day when she had slept over at Rika's place.

He headed outside of the noisy venue and took out his phone, he still had a bit less than an hour before the end of the episode so he took out his phone in a silent place and called his little sister, he used to call her every night before sleeping but he didn't yesterday as he was too busy preparing for today.

Ring ring ring...

After three rings he heard a young girly voice, the usual cute Em's voice.

”Hey cutie !”

”Big brother ! I was watching you on television earlier !”

”Haha how was big brother's performance?”

”You sang great, big brother is the best !”

...

Just by talking to his lit tile sister he made the uncomfortable feeling he had disappear, he had been with his sister forever and now he just left for a month already. He wanted to see her soon but he still had one episode of the show to shoot, at first it was all for her good but now he started to think of himself too, he would make money for both of them to live the best possible life.

« Big brother Rika is calling me to play, I'll call you again later ! »

« Haha ok, have fun and don't sleep too late it's already 9PM. »

« Yes big brother, I love you ! »

« I love you too. »

Saying that she hung up and Sam went back to the waiting room, he sat down and enjoyed the show in front of him. Every one passing on the room's TV had a great talent, there was an illusionist, a guy doing football freestyle, other singers and a lot of other.

He knew that without the system he could never have made it here but it wasn't a reason, the system was now part of him so everything that came from the system was his, he had thought about it : was everything given to him by the system his or just cheat ? It was both but he didn't mind cheating, his cheat was stronger than the rest of the people but everybody at the top of the world cheated to reach where they were, as the most famous exemple there were rumors that Steve Jobs actually stole ideas from Bill Gates, although this was refuted he also said himself that he stole from other brands, isn't that cheating ?

Anyway he didn't feel guilty about it anymore after thinking like that, everybody had his opportunity to greatness and this was his, he wouldn't mind using it to trample over everybody to make himself the best in whatever domain he wanted.

Finally after a pretty boring while he was called back on stage with all the contestants, amongst the almost hundred present people here, 10 would advance to the next step and amongst these 10 only one would win and take away the 100 000€, this was Sam's objective.

When all the contestants got on stage, it got packed really fast as they were a hundred on a stage made for one person. As it was thought to fit all type of performances such as dance, gymnastics and others it was still spacious enough but in the end Sam still found himself stuck between a guy and a girl, he had seen both their performance as they went on stage after his turn, if he was to judge them objectively it was great but not to his level yet, he wasn't being arrogant but it was the truth.

”You guys did great reaching this point in the competition but only 10 of you will take the next step, while you were in the waiting room we already decided of the 10 that are going to the finals.”
