Chapter 333 Shake Your Booty

Jisung looked at June with wide, sparkling eyes.

"You were hiding your real abilities, right? You're actually really smart, but you wanted to show the people who underestimated you that they shouldn't talk bad about other people because of their grades! Is that right?" he excitedly asked.

June chuckled as he stood from the couch.

"This isn't a manga or an anime, Jisung. I'm not some kind of protagonist," June answered.

Jisung pursed his lips. "You are a protagonist in my heart."

"Oh gosh," Jaeyong chuckled. "You said the same thing as Seven."

Jisung turned his head to Jaeyong. "Don't compare me with that idiot!"

"Woah, Jisung actually cursed someone out?" Ren asked with wide eyes.

June shook his head as he listened to their banter. "I'm heading to bed now," he said.

"We have another music show tomorrow, so it's best we get some rest."

Jaeyong nodded in agreement, also rising from the couch. "Yeah, and I heard we might be nominated for first place tomorrow."

Their eyes widened in surprise.

"No way," Jisung said. "We're nominated for tomorrow again?"

Jaeyong chuckled. "Don't get your hopes up. This is just based on those prediction accounts. However, we have a really good chance to be nominated along with OCTA."

"Them again?" Zeth groaned. "They already got two trophies last week. This is our last week of preparations, so I really want us to get a win."

"Me too," the others dejectedly agreed.

Last week, during their second week of preparations, OCTA and EVE proved once again they were rivals when they were nominated for two of the top music shows in Korea.

Unfortunately, since Uno's guesting on 'Crawling Man' was relatively received well, their song shot up in the charts, securing their spot in the top ten once more. It still didn't reach EVE's spot on the charts. However, that, along with the voting and album sales, made OCTA the winners of last week's music shows.

June would be lying if he said he wasn't disappointed with the results. However, he still had hope left inside his heart.

"Maybe we'll get one tomorrow," June meaningfully said.

"Yeah, let's hope for something," Jaeyong said, cheering up his teammates.

"I have high hopes," Sehun said. "Our song just shot up to the fourth spot again after Quiz God ended. I think your guesting actually made a really good impact."

"Well, it's late. Time to hit the hay, guys," Ren said. "I'll see you all tomorrow."

The eight of them went to their respective rooms, with June thinking about their first-place nomination.

He could still remember the feeling of being nominated last week. He had some high hopes since they had higher streaming points than OCTA.

However, they lost both battles, which took a toll on his confidence.

After watching Quiz God and seeing so many people praise him for his intellect, he felt like he was slowly regaining that confidence.

Seeing his two S-tier stats also placed a smile on his face.

[- Vocals: S-

- Dance: S-

- Visual: A+

- Rap: A+

- Leadership: A+

- Music Production: A+]

That's right.

He now had two S-tier skills.

One week ago, TCN Broadcasting Station

"And cut!"

The cameras finally stopped rolling after the six-hour-long filming.

Zibo went down the stage first, holding the bouquet of flowers in his arms. He went over to the eliminated contestants and expected to be greeted enthusiastically for his victory.

However, none of them seemed to be looking at him.

Instead, they were all focused on June, who nonchalantly went down the stage and fetched Jaeyong so they could finally leave.

"Why'd you lose on purpose?" Jaeyong asked as they walked backstage.

June shrugged. "I have something lined up during the day of the filming."

Jaeyong sighed and shook his head.

The contestants and the audience members watched them as they passed by. The two boys suddenly looked more attractive than they were before!

It almost seemed like flowers fell from where they walked!

Seven was about to run to June to congratulate him, but Ocho pulled him back and shook his head.

They arrived backstage, where they saw Chul's pale face. It was as if he had seen two ghosts doing the dirty with how shocked he looked.

"Are you feeling okay?" Jaeyong warily asked.

Chul didn't answer and continued staring blankly on the ground.

"Umm, do we need to take you to the hospital or something?" Jaeyong asked in a concerned tone.

"He's fine," June said.

"He's just recovering from shock," he smirked, patting Chul's head like an owner would do to his small, ugly dog.

"Shock from what?" Jaeyong asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"Doesn't matter," June said, getting the keys hanging from Chul's bag and giving it to Jaeyong.

"You can drive, right? Why don't we head out first?" he asked.

"But what about Chul?" Jaeyong asked.

"He's a big boy. He can go home by himself," June said. "Let's go!"

Although Jaeyong was still a little bit confused, he also wanted to go home quickly, so he followed June's orders.

The two of them went to the basement parking lot, feeling more elated than ever.

Jaeyong continued talking about how cool June was during the filming, and June merely listened to him with a smile.

[Congratulations! You have stumbled upon a lucky mission. The title is Shake Your Booty!]

June paused when he saw Fu pop up before him.

"Shake your booty?" he muttered under his breath.

[This is a mission solely for the dance aspect! Fulfill the mission and get the chance to upgrade your dance aspect!]

"June?" Jaeyong asked, stopping when he didn't feel June's presence by his side.

"Umm, I actually have to do something for a bit. Can you wait for me in the car?"

"Will it take long?" Jaeyong asked.

"No," June shook his head, "just a couple of minutes."

Jaeyong nodded before heading to the car by himself. Meanwhile, June went to the corner of the parking lot and read the contents of the mission.

[Twerk for one whole minute to get the upgrade.]

"What the fuck?" he couldn't help but exclaim loudly.

Why were his missions getting more ridiculous as time passed by? He could still remember his first missions—making a friend, encouraging others, and the like. He even had to do a good deed last week!

Now, why was Fu asking him to twerk?

[Systems need to have fun too.]

June pursed his lips in frustration. He looked around the parking lot and made sure nobody was around.

Now, he doesn't have any experience with twerking, but he has seen some videos online (not intentionally, of course).

So, he crouched down and started shaking his ass.

[Twerk Timer: 58 seconds]

At that moment, his user interface started lighting up in different colors, mimicking a party.

June shook his head in disbelief.

"You're enjoying this, aren't you?"

[Twerk Timer: 41 seconds]

"Ugh, this whole damn minute feels like an eternity!"

Meanwhile, Zibo and his teammate went to the parking lot to go back to their living quarters. Zibo, despite winning, was in a bad mood since the people who sucked up to him during the beginning of the show practically ignored him after it ended!

What a bunch of hypocrites.

He was about to enter their car when he saw a silhouette at the corner of the lot.

Zibo frowned and took a step forward to get a better look.

He swore he saw something pink moving in a very weird manner.

Then, at that moment, he saw June shaking his ass with a displeased look on his face.

Zibo would have recorded it right then and there, but he was too shocked to move.

"I can't believe I lost to a person like him," he whispered.
