Chapter 599 A Special Day (1)

Chapter 599 A Special Day (1)

"I'm so bored," Akira groaned as he slumped on the couch.

The members of EVE were currently in their living room dorm with a new episode of 'The King's Joker' playing in the background. It was a rare occurrence where they were all gathered in the early afternoon.

These days, they were only able to go home late in the evening, and they all went to their rooms right after, so it has been a while since they gathered like this.

"How are you bored with all the work we've been putting out?" Sehun asked, on the verge of sleep. "I feel like I need a one week's worth of vacation with everything that happened!"

"I don't even know," Akira sighed. "My body feels tired, too, but my mind wants to do something. It's only been a week filled with nonstop work, but I already feel like a workaholic!"

"Imagine how June feels," Zeth said. "I can't believe he got accepted in a movie while we're doing all these things. Come to think of it now, I probably would not be able to do all of those if I became EVE's center."

Ren shook his head. "You probably won't be offered such opportunities even if you were a center. You suck at acting."

Zeth raised his hands in surrender.

"Touche," Zeth said.

[Congratulations, host! You have completed your Acting Mission.]

[You are now part of Untouched Souls]

[You have also reached a hundred hard work points]

[Acting: +2]

[Current Grade: A-]

"I'm really, really bored," Akira continued ranting, causing June to click his tongue.

"What do you want to do then?" June asked.

Akira wore a successful smirk as he glanced at his teammates. However, he quickly focused back on June.

"Why don't we eat hotpot again? I've been craving some for the past week. But we can't eat outside now because our fans will go batshit crazy."

"Me too," Jisung chimed. "I want those pre-packed hotpot starter kits from that popular hotpot spot."

"It's so far, though," Jaeyong groaned. "I'm too lazy to go."

"Me too," Jisung said once more.

"Me three," Akira chimed.

June clicked his tongue. "Why did you even suggest hotpot if you're too lazy to buy the meal kit yourself."

Akira then gasped in an exaggerated manner, clapping at himself like he had just come up with a genius idea.

"Why don't we play rock-paper-scissors, and the person who loses will buy the hotpot kit for us," he suggested.

"Great idea!" Jisung exclaimed, almost in a robotic voice, causing June to narrow his eyes in suspicion.

"You guys are acting strange."

"Strange?" Akira chuckled. "Jisung and I have always been weird."

June still wasn't convinced.

"Yeah, we can do that," Jaeyong chimed. "Jay said we can use the van, so it'll be easier."

"Jay's on this too?" June asked.

"He's coming by later," Ren nervously chuckled.

"So, why can't he be the one to buy the hotpot kit?" June asked.

Zeth clicked his tongue and leaned closer to Sehun. "He's way too smart."

"Come on," Akira whined, his voice filling the entire room. "It's going to be a fair game of rock-paper-scissors. Why are you so against it?"

"Fine," June sighed.

He has been craving hotpot anyway. He felt like he needed it after working hard for the past weeks.

Akira's smile quivered. "Alright, let's do this."

"Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!"

The seven other members showed rock while June showed scissors, making the group cheer.

June glared at them as they gathered in a circle, celebrating like they just won the championships of a basketball game.

"This is a set-up," June said. "I feel like you've planned this."

"We didn't," Akira defended.

"Then, let's have a rematch," June suggested.

"No way," Akira awkwardly chuckled, his eyes darting around. "You already lost!"

"I would only be convinced that you guys didn't cheat if we have a rematch."

Akira pursed his lips and glanced at the other members.

"Fine," he sighed. "Just one more game, alright?"

"Hmm," June hummed, readying his hand to play another round.

Akira gulped, appearing to be nervous. "Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!"

Once again, the other seven members all showed paper while June showed rock.

The seven members celebrated once again, causing June to slump in disappointment.

Amidst their cheers, Fu appeared right before June.

[It's a special day, bitch!]

June was taken aback by Fu's sudden cursing.

[You have been granted an extra special mission, bitch!]

'Can you stop calling me that way?'

[Anyway, here's your mission! You have a treasure hunt. Find all of these items within the day, place them on top of your bed, and be granted a surprise reward!]

'A surprise reward? That's new.'

'What's this even for?' June asked.

[It's a surprise!]

[Find all of these things:

1. A sweet, red apple from a woman as pale as snow.

2. A kiss on the cheek from a crazy witch.

3. A knife from a jealous jerk.]

June once again read his mission with a frown.

Was he a princess of some sort? What are these items?

Well, at least going out by himself wouldn't be too bad after all. He could take the time to finish his mission and find out what the real surprise was.

The seven members finally stopped celebrating when they noticed that June was silent.

Jisung pursed his lips and approached June, feeling that he was upset.

In reality, June was just talking to his system.

"Umm, bro? Is that alright with you?" he asked, making June snap out of his daze.

June looked up at them and nodded.

"Yeah, that's alright," he nonchalantly said, making the members feel guilty for celebrating too hard.

Then, he grabbed his bag along with the car keys before walking away from the members, determined to finish his mission early so he could come home and they could start their hotpot party sooner.

"I'll get going then."

With that, he walked out of the door. Due to a sudden gush of wind, the door slammed shut, creating a loud sound.

The members inside froze in surprise.

Akira bit his lip in nervousness.

"Oh no, June is upset."
