Thank you for the 1st place! Ah Its not really something to be thankful for since I earned it myself, right? No, I still want to thank the Noeul members.
Idols, huh, idols.
Pros~.
As Kim Seonghyeons first-place interview played on the screen, Black Calls vocalist returned with a laugh.
Wow~, kids these days have such stamina~.
Jeongwoo-hyung, youre getting old.
Whose fault is it that I aged so quickly.
Joo Woosung, who had been stretching his legs, laughed sheepishly.
Black Call had a particularly gentle atmosphere. From the start, they didnt seem too eager for first place. It was the kind of composure that came with having high recognition even without trying to appear on camera for an extra second, like other groups.
Whats next? Rhythmic gymnastics?
Yep, and then archery after that.
Since none of our members participated in rhythmic gymnastics, we quickly got up during the setup time, went to the waiting room, and got a box directly from our manager.
It was a counterattack lunchbox we had been preparing since yesterday.
Our fans probably havent eaten either.
Exactly.
Members usually have their meals prepared by their agency, but our members insisted on using their own money to prepare a modest lunchbox, just like how they treat themselves. As we approached Noeul with the boxes, the fans screamed. We smiled and laid down the boxes and greeted them.
You must be hungry. Its already 9 oclock.
Ya!! You guys must be hungrier!
We just grabbed something quick to eat.
Seong Jiwon carefully opened the boxes and cautiously handed out the lunchboxes one by one. Although the breakfast was relatively light sandwiches, they were all handmade, so they looked thoughtful.
I hope its delicious.
The Noeul members almost cursed in awe as they received the lunchboxes. Each lunchbox had a handwritten note from the members.
You guys probably dont have enough time to practice.
Im sorry its not much. We should give you something better.
I tried it earlier, and it was delicious!
Did you eat it?!
Seong Jiwon covered Jeong Dajuns mouth and bowed his head. Thanks to him, laughter erupted among the Noeul members.
We chatted for quite a long time, and then one of the fans voices caught my ear.
You dont have to get first place today. Just dont get hurt!
Of course!
Jeong Dajun smiled brightly and nodded.
As the rhythmic gymnastics event was about to begin, we quickly returned to our seats.
An idol group of a similar age to us was performing rhythmic gymnastics, showcasing their ribbon skills. Their dazzling costumes and tension that could be felt all the way to their toes made it obvious that they were grinding their teeth during the performance.
So, I also came out here with clenched teeth
Jeong Dajun stood and clapped for a while before sitting back down. The idol, with a proud expression, checked their score and went backstage.
The next event was archery. However, there was a sudden commotion among the staff, and they began to move hastily.
Huh? Whats going on?
Isnt the next event archery?
The announcer quickly checked a note handed over by the staff and managed not to panic, smiling naturally.
Next up, everyone, is e-sports!
Huh?
Ah, it must be because of the time distribution.
While setting up for each sport, they constantly squeezed in e-sports preliminaries. However, it seemed that the actual playtime differed from the estimated time, so they moved e-sports forward, even if it meant pushing back archery.
As I turned around with a tsk, Kang Ichae, who was participating in the last semi-final match, chuckled.
Ah Is it my turn now?
With an arrogant tilt of his head, Kang Ichae, who had been obsessed with a strange concept for days, smiled. He swept his hair back, then did a high-five with each member. Even the Black Call members sitting next to him got swept up in the atmosphere and did the high-five.
Such an unthreatening guy.
The e-sports team consisted of Seong Jiwon, Jeong Dajun, Kang Ichae, and one member each from Refined and Nightmare.
Joo Woosung, sipping some juice next to me, asked,
Arent you participating?
I already failed when our team chose the candidates. What about you, Woosung?Visitt for the latest updates
Im bad at games from the start. What about Seonghyeon?
One enemy died instantly, and a pet lunged at the remaining player with a sliver of health, killing them.
[The Dawn Seong Jiwon Triple Kill!]
As the turret started attacking, Kang Ichae cunningly applied healing and movement speed at the perfect moment. They took damage, but both survived unscathed.
Wow! What an amazing play!
Seong Jiwon gets his first Triple Kill!
If Kang Ichae hadnt healed just now, they wouldve gotten a kill there! If his reaction was even 0.5 seconds late, it wouldve been over! Actually, even if Kang Ichae had died here, it wouldve been a gain for them! But he survived!
Wow, The Dawns teamwork is quite good. This game is turning out to be quite interesting~?
The commentators got increasingly excited with the unexpectedly thrilling game. Although they were pros watching an amateur match, they were riding high.
Bottom lane completely pushed their line. They havent even used their ultimate yet
Want some ice cream?
Uh, sure.
No such thing (flavor).
Then anything.
While Seong Jiwon and Kang Ichae were involved in a virtual life-and-death situation, we were leisurely sucking on ice cream while watching. To begin with, I didnt know much about the game Of course, the excited commentators didnt care about other peoples reactions.
Hyung, come this way.
Yeah.
It seems like player Kang Ichae is in charge of overall management, right?
Yes! But right now, in the top lane, Refineds player, Yeongjun, quietly got a kill! Theyre pushing the top lane too!
And here at the bottom! The Dawns bottom lane doesnt care about pushing and pulling, they want to finish it quickly! They show strong determination and destroy the turret!
Kang Ichae clicked the mouse rapidly.
What is player Kang Ichae doing with the minimap? Did they see everything at once?
Gank.
Yep!
Player Seong Jiwon! Theyre heading to the valley! But, oh no, Refineds players saw them! Theyre rushing over, but the physical difference is overwhelming! Kill! Kiill!
[The Dawn Seong Jiwon is going wild!]
Player Seong Jiwon, unbelievable!
This is natural sense, a sense!
The commentators jumped up. The Dawns fandom was already noisy.
Seonghyeon and I sucked on our ice cream and shook the slogans casually.
Fighting~.
The whole commentary team burst into laughter, except for the commentators focused on the game.
The remaining Dawn members, are they cheering or not~?
It seems like theyre saying, Try winning without us, just try it!
The Dawn team that swept away the whole fight destroyed the opponents base inhibitors and the last turret in just 20 minutes.
Ah~!!! The Dawn team grabs the victory, victory~!!
Wow~! In this game, Players Seong Jiwon and Kang Ichae really stood out.
Despite the commentators continuing words, Jeong Dajun threw off his headphones and excitedly ran out.
Hyung! Ichae-hyung! Jiwon-hyung~!!
Clean up, done.
That annoying guy
Kang Ichaes downcast head concept remained unchanged amid it all.
You were amazing just now!
The Dawn-Nire team huddled together, hugging each other and making a big fuss. In contrast to their hot atmosphere, Kim Seonghyeon and I continued to feel chilly.
Finals?
It keeps making me want to nag.
We sat crookedly in our seats, pouting and grumbling.
[1] comes from the combined initials of two words, (for Nightmare) and (Refined).
[2] implies that someone (the white heron, a symbol of purity) should avoid bad company or negative things (the crows, often symbolizing trouble) in order to maintain their reputation and integrity.
[3] If youre like me and havent played League of Legends before, let me break down the roles for you. ADC (Attack Damage Carry) is the main damage healer. Support, well, supports the ADC. A Jungler operates in the jungle (get it?), farming jungle monsters, securing objectives, and ganking/assisting lanes to provide strategic advantages for their team.
[4] First blood refers to the first kill that occurs in an LoL match.
[5] Diving refers to a maneuver where one or more players aggressively engage an enemy under their turret in order to secure a kill or force them out of lane.
