Do you still have someone to see?

No, um I was just going to leave, but Im a little curious.

About what?

However, contrary to his words, Min Jiheon yawned as if he was not interested and rubbed his eyes.

I was about to ask what he was curious about when an icy feeling came over me again.

Uh-huh!

Lets not ask.

I turned my head and tried to move on. If his dialogue window doesnt even pop up, hes definitely not helpful in progressing the scenario.

Well then, Ill be going.

Arent you going to act, Seo Hoyun?

?

But then Min Jiheon asked me as I was trying to pass by without any problem.

The CEO must have asked you. If you want to act.

How do you know that?

Oh, I mentioned it. How about letting Seo Hoyun try acting?

You, Min Jiheon-sunbae?

I didnt expect this development.

With a trembling face, Min Jiheon looked at me up and down.

Actually, the sequel to the Please Serve the Cider I filmed last time is coming out. Its called Please Take the Camera The writer really liked Seo Hoyun after watching Shining Star. He said that youd fit the image of the next character very well.

Suddenly, the back of my head felt heavy. So, it was you who made the CEO suddenly ask me!

You breathed into the CEOs ear?!

Yu Jia also said that Seo Hoyun would be good.

Min Jiheon continued to speak, regardless of whether he knew my displeasure or not.

So, what did you answer?

I said I wouldnt do it.

Really? Thats such a shame?

A shame?

At this point, I was getting suspicious, so I asked nervously.

Do I have an incredible talent? So much that Min Jiheon would ask?

Uh?

Did he really need to approach me like this?

I was actually being sarcastic, but Min Jiheon laughed as if he took it seriously.

Ahahaha, I dont know!

?

Whats going on?

Ignoring my confusion, Min Jiheon hummed and babbled on.

I dont really know by looking at faces. There are people among the other stakeholders who know right away. I think its really divine inspiration?

What the heck was this guy?

Anyway, Ill tell the writer that you cant do it.

Min Jiheon, who didnt seem like the person who stirred up the CEO, calmly accepted my refusal and soon received a phone call from the manager. He quickly made a bland face and said, Yes, yes, trailing off.

As soon as he hung up, he looked at me and waved his hand.

Goodbye~! Stay healthy in the meantime!

??

Suddenly, the atmosphere became festive.

He acted as if he was saying his last goodbye to someone he wouldnt see again, so I opened my mouth in astonishment as Min Jiheon turned around and walked slowly away.

Whats really up with that guy?

I called up the system window.

Hey, show me Min Jiheons stats.

But there was no answer.

Hey?

Only after Min Jiheon had been gone for a while did the system window pop up.

[Yes?]

I called you earlier.

[I didnt hear it~.]

The system window pretended not to hear me and then disappeared. I raised my eyebrows at that.

This is new?

The system window

Now it even lied right in front of my eyes.

***

Hyung, come here!

I thought I would finally have some relatively free time after finishing all the music show schedules, but Kang Ichae suddenly became enthusiastic.

What is it?

Were going on Victory is Mine. We need to practice quickly, so write down your desired events.

Ah, right.

This program, held every year at the end of May, was always popular. The fact that it was still held every year despite idols getting hurt and causing chaos showed its popularity.

What events are there?

Running, archery, wrestling, rhythmic gymnastics, and esports!

Esports?

I was familiar with the other events, but e-sports was new. Kang Ichae shook his game console excitedly.

There are even more events within e-sports! I have to win first place in this for my pride.

Whats the prize for first place?

Honor? Glory?

Korean beef!

Hyung, just look at this once and then say it.

What is this?

I asked, feeling deflated as I stood up from my chair. No, its fine. Itd be great if Kang Ichae did well.

If they get first place, thats good for me.

Giving up easily, I started wandering around and observing the others. Kim Seonghyeon, who had dropped out long ago, asked me with a raised eyebrow, having received harsh criticism earlier.

Seo Hoyun, want to order some ramen?

Dont order Kang Ichaes.

Of course, why would I?

Seonghyeon and I badmouthed Kang Ichae, but it didnt get us anywhere. We slurped up our ramen and started watching more intently.

What about Jeong Dajun?

Next was Jeong Dajun.

Dajun is alright.

Yeah!

Dajun cheered and clenched his fist.

Seong Jiwon.

The only one left was Seong Jiwon. His skills were probably about the same as mine. I waved at him, thinking he would be eliminated without even watching.

Seong Jiwon, come and eat ramen quickly. Its getting cold.

No, wait a minute, guys. Please dont bother Jiwon.

Eh?

But Kang Ichae couldnt take his eyes off Jiwons screen.

Hyung, how long have you been playing this game?

Umm not that long.

Wow, whats?

Next to them, Jeong Dajun and Kang Ichae were getting excited. Seong Jiwon dived into the enemy tower, hit the opponent with three ghostly skills in a row, and set the opponent on fire with a chat.

[You fucking bitch]

Somehow, Seong Jiwon figured out they were cursing at him and said innocently,

Wow, they are cursing at me.

Mute them.

Whats mute?

As Seong Jiwon followed Kang Ichaes instructions to mute the other team, his brow furrowed slightly, and he quickly turned his hand with the mouse. At that moment, he dodged a grab flying from the bushes and killed the opposing team.

[Practice guy is going crazy!]

[Practice guy Double Kill!]

What the!

Amazing

[Oh;;;]

[Well, fucking practice]

Even their teammates started praising them. A rare sight in Korea: someone playing a game and hearing kind words. Kang Ichae peeked at Seong Jiwon.

Hyung, about the cursing earlier

Huh?

You dont care?

Ahaha, I get cursed at all the time.

An idol indeed!

Sensibility and mentality?

Kang Ichae, who was always serious about games, looked at Jiwons screen with a moved expression. Following that, Jiwon wrapped up the team fight safely.

[Practice guy Double Kill!]

[Practice guy Triple Kill!]

[No one can stop Practice guy!]

[Victory]

When the tower was destroyed, and they returned to the main screen, medals were awarded in a flurry. It was the MVP given by the people who played together.

Wow! I guess I did well.

No?

Kang Ichae and Jeong Dajun were silent. Then they nodded simultaneously. Dajun grabbed Jiwons right shoulder, while Ichae grabbed his left.

Hyung, what do you want to do?

Huh?

Choose any lane. Ill push all of them for you. I can support, and you can be the attacker.

Kang Ichae was as serious as an Olympic athlete preparing for a competition. Jiwon was still puzzled about the situation, but Dajun and Ichae grinned.

I saw Seonghyeon, and we have to give up on him.

Yeah. Hoyun is worse than Seonghyeon. Its over for him.

Why am I done for?

I expressed my displeasure, but it didnt reach the two of them, who seemed to be wearing some protective gear.

Lets do this. Well bring Jiwon, one from Nightmare, and one more from Refined. Then well have five good people.

How were the people you brought?

Not bad. We can win with that level. We just have to train hard with Jiwon for the remaining time.

Kang Ichae clenched his fist, full of enthusiasm.

Well win this match.

Kang Ichae and Jeong Dajun sang I Thought of You and the Championship~ with Seong Jiwon in the middle. It was a surprisingly life-or-death atmosphere for such cheap pride.

While they were busy creating a new narrative, Kim Seonghyeon and I were peacefully eating ramen with rice.

What are we going to do?

Lets do archery or something.

Then Ill do athletics.

If they just get 1st place, I just have to sit back and enjoy the rewards.

It couldnt have been more peaceful.
