Chapter 197: Let’s Start The Party!

Rayen just simply picked some small fruits in the forest. In the end, he also went to the seaside, but the opposite side from where Ren went.

Since he couldn’t catch fishes, he could only resort to finding other seafood on the shore.

Along the way, his camera was filming. He filmed the calm waves of the sea and the clear blue sky.

The wind in the shore was quite strong, fortunately they were also given a lapel that he clipped on his chest so that his voice could still be heard.

Though that hindered him from swimming all the way.

’Not that I plan on doing it.’

The entire time, he was just filming the scenery, which was quite boring even for him as the content creator. So he just stopped recording to enjoy the moment for a while.

As he was strolling on the shore, he finally found something interesting that he could include in his recording.

"Look, I’m seeing something good!" Rayen said, face on the camera as he pointed somewhere.

A bunch of sea rocks lay there, massive and scattered, but he wasn’t really pointing toward the rock but at something that was on it.

Since it wouldn’t be too visible in the camera, Rayen made his way toward it and approached the lenses on that something.

"An oyster!"

Rayen laughed, then he placed the camera on one of the rocks so he could extract this delicacy. Fortunately, a knife was included in the toolkit that he grabbed in a hurry earlier.

He explained how to extract it, careful not with his every movement so he wouldn’t hurt himself. He talked and talked like an expert until his throat went sore.

After extracting a few more oysters, he also found some seaweed lying on the shallow seabed.

"These would be good with some slices of lime," Rayen said, already salivating at the thought.

Food just excited him so much that he didn’t even notice someone approaching behind him.

"Brother, what’s that?"

Rayen stopped what he was doing and glanced back to see Yeo Haru.

"I’m gathering food."

"That’s food?"

"It’s seaweed. You don’t know?"

Yeo Haru laughed awkwardly and shook his head. He was standing so far away from the water and was almost jumping whenever the waves reached him.

Recalling what Yeo Haru said on the cruise, Rayen refrained from making fun of him.

"It’s good. Want me to gather you some?"

"Well, if it can be eaten, then yes..."

Rayen laughed as he caught Yeo Haru’s gathering basket.

For someone who has a phobia with the sea, it would really be hard to find food on their own aside from wild fruits in the forest. Unfortunately, neither of them could catch a fish.

After a few minutes, Rayen determined he had gathered enough for the both of them. He handed Yeo Haru’s share to him.

"Are you sure this is seaweed? It looks like some sort of alien eggs..."

He had seen seaweeds before, but not this kind which looked like mini green grapes.

Because of that, Rayen plucked one branch from the seaweed and shoved it on Yeo Haru’s mouth. Yeo Haru grimaced on instinct, but he managed to chew it.

"It tastes like the sea and slime..." Yeo Haru said, laughing weakly. "But it’s good."

"Yeah. You can eat it with vinegar," Rayen said. "Let’s go, it’s almost dusk."

Yeo Haru nodded. He tucked away his camera and followed after Rayen.

On their way though, Rayen recalled something.

"Hey, who’s your roommates?"

"It’s Adrian Bro and Taeho."

’Who the hell is that?’

But it didn’t matter who that was. Rayen just wanted to get away from being Ren’s roommate.

"Can we switch?"

"Huh? Why?"

"Well, that guy’s my roommate."

"That guy?" Yeo Haru frowned but then realized who Rayen was talking about. "Oh."

"Switch with me. Consider it as payment for the weeds and oysters."

Although Yeo Haru really didn’t want to switch rooms and be with a problematic guy, he also felt indebted to Rayen. In the end, he gave his straw hat to Rayen.

"Fine."

Rayen smiled and also gave his own straw hat. "Thanks."

They smoothly walked the rest of the way with Rayen whistling in joy. Most of the participants had also gathered in the camp, surrounding the already lit bonfire at the center.

Adrian noticed the two of them and waved in their direction. Together with him was Liam.

Rayen and Yeo Haru walked over toward them and saw that they had pooled their food in the center.

"I caught some fish with him," Adrian said.

Rayen also showed their own haul. "Oysters and seaweed."

"And some fruits," Yeo Haru proudly announced, back to his energetic self now that the sea wasn’t around to scare him.

Finally, Plotter, Director and the staff members also appeared from somewhere.

"Is everyone back?" Plotter asked.

The staff made a head count and nodded.

"Well then, let’s start the party!"

As Plotter’s announcement finished, a loud song reverberated from the speakers somewhere. The party started as everyone enjoyed everything.

Rayen watched the scene.

Although there were cameras surrounding them recording the moment, the feeling of joy and the relaxed atmosphere was truly genuine.

Here, no one talked about the finals.

Here, there was no pressure.

Here, Rayen could breathe in relief.

Adrian went over to the condiments table and seasoned their fish before going to the bonfire to grill it. Rayen also went there to create a seaweed salad.

Then, everyone ravaged the food.

All in all, the party had fulfilled Rayen’s stomach. He sat there, watching the others have a talk under the night sky beside the giant bonfire.

Just then, a screech interrupted everyone’s tranquil moments. The participants all looked toward the speakers’ direction only to see Plotter in his Hawaiian version of his usual mix and match attire, standing onstage and holding a mic.

"Now that everyone is full, let’s have a game~" he announced.

Rayen chuckled.

’Well... Of course the day wouldn’t be over just like that...’
