CHAPTER 260: STREAM PARTY

As soon as the MV was released, the group had been trying to monitor its momentum. After all, Plotter said that if they flop, then they would be as good as over.

Of course, Edens wouldn’t allow this at all.

Day and night, they worked hard to rack up Don Juan’s rankings.

[Edens, keep streaming! Don’t skip the ads! Don’t forget to hit the like button!]

– (screenshot) I’ve been here for an hour just to not skip the ads. Why do they create a movie just for an ad?

– (crying emoji) Skip it. Skip it. Why the hell did you not skip it? Forgive me, but did you leave your brain back in your mama’s womb?

– But you said not to skip ads!

– Girl, are you new to this?

– I’m a guy... How do I do this?

– Oh, sorry. Create a playlist and add random videos in between or the other tracks from the album.

– Also use incognito!

[Let’s keep it up, guys! We’re already near 2M in 1 day! Good job!]

– My hard work is getting paid off TT

– I’ve been using three of my devices just to keep it up. Thanks for telling me that it’s working.

[Please don’t just focus on the MV views. We need to stream the music too!]

– And create videos with it as the BGM! Please, please, please, let them get their first win on their debut!

– SEEDZ first win! I want to see the members cry in happiness!

– SEEDZ first win! +1 I want to see Haru cry!

– SEEDZ first win! +2 Let me see Navin’s tearful face!

– SEEDZ first win! +3 Why are you guys so sadistic? I want to see them smiling in joy!

– I know, I have to stream. I also love the song. I think it’s really among the best debuts I’ve ever seen, but I just couldn’t listen to the song at night.

– Huhuhu right. I want to keep streaming it, but my mom kept checking on me since she thought I was watching a horror movie repeatedly.

– Why is the song like this? (Crying emoji) It’s either I cry because I think I’m scared of growing up, or I get chills because of the members’ shrill screams.

– They’re hot as ghosts, though.

– Yeah, right? How can a rookie group talk about "getting older" right off the bat? TT You’re hurting this mama!

– I think I resonate with Yeo Haru so much. I also don’t want to get out of bed every morning.

While Edens were busy with streaming, SEEDZ weren’t as busy as when they were preparing for their songs. Though they still had to prepare for their debut stages for their upcoming promotions, aside from their practice session in the morning, they had nothing else to do this day. It suddenly felt like they were on a holiday.

The members lazed around their dorm. Adrian spent the day sleeping. Xu Jiji came to school.

As for Ren, he busied himself watching ghost movies in the living room, while Mr. Big News taught Xi Huan how to cook without making it look disgusting.

At first, Rayen and Iris were curious, so the two stayed in the kitchen to watch them. Eventually, they felt bored, so they also joined in.

However... Rayen, just like his talent with dancing at the start of the show, was even more hopeless with cooking.

Xi Huan looked at the dish with skeptical eyes. Even though it looked delicious, Rayen already had a history of almost poisoning them to death back then. However, the ever kind Mr. Big News still gave him the benefit of the doubt when he saw Rayen’s expectant look and decided to taste it.

But then... he collapsed in the sink, vomiting everything.

"Why? Is there something wrong with it?" Rayen asked.

’Isn’t it obvious?!’

Mr. Big News wiped the corner of his mouth. "How much salt did you put in there?"

Rayen blinked and showed the almost empty bottle to them.

Soon after, Mr. Big News politely pushed him out of the kitchen.

"Go and find something else to do, Rayeye~ Don’t kill us for the second time!" Xi Huan yelled back from the kitchen.

Rayen sighed. But just a few moments later, Iris was also pushed out by Mr. Big News. Apparently, she almost let the kitchen explode after she tried to light the electric stove with fire when the two were busy dealing with Rayen.

"....."

Rayen and Iris were speechless.

Having been kicked out, they had nothing else to do. Iris just returned to their room, completely bummed out. Now, only Rayen was left.

Just like Iris, he just went back inside their room. Sprawling on the bed, he pulled out his phone from his dimensional pocket and opened Idol:Revive to look for something to do.

However, from their practice sessions alone, he had already finished most of his weekly missions. As for the Achievement missions, they were far too out of reach for now.

[Mission: Get Top 1 on a Digital Chart for a whole month.]

[Mission: Win a prominent music award.]

[Mission: Achieve Rookie of the Year.]

Sigh.

’Should I ask Mini Plotter to give me a random mission?’

As soon as Rayen thought that, the devil’s head suddenly popped out from the corner of his phone screen.

"It seems like you’re lost on what to do?"

Being asked like this, Rayen felt the urge to tell him the opposite. However, before he could even open his mouth to respond, Mini Plotter had already pulled out his status window in the open.

[Name: Im Rayen

Vocals: S

Dance: A-

Visual: A-

Production: S-

Team: D+]

Then, it tapped on Rayen’s Team Skill.

Another window popped up before Rayen.

[Would you like to accept the ranking mission?

Y/N]

Rayen’s eyes brightened.

’Oh, right. I almost missed this!’

Immediately, Rayen tapped on the Yes button. He didn’t have anything to do, so why not?

[Skill Ranking Mission (Team)

Mission: Make up with a member you’re having disagreements with.

Deadline: 3 days]

"....."

At the same time, Mini Plotter also disappeared.

’This is on purpose, right?’

As always, Mini Plotter’s timing is always on purpose. However, since he had already accepted the mission, there was nothing he could do.

Well, it’s bound to happen anyway. He had to make up with Adrian sooner or later. If not, it would be hard to navigate the group with him.

’But why is he even mad?’

Rayen isn’t so stupid as not to guess why Adrian was mad. It’s all because of what happened to Ara. The only thing Rayen was puzzled about was why the hell did it become his fault?

Rayen sighed.
