Chapter 56: Let Me Sleep!

[Congratulations for winning the best performer award in the first round!

>>> Claim rewards]

’How did I win?’

The situation was completely unexpected, but seeing a reward button, Rayen’s eyes lit up.

Who cares? Winning is winning.

He had completely forgotten that he was being recorded right now. Excitedly, he tapped the button, causing another window to pop up on his screen.

[Claiming rewards...]

[Congratulations! Winning the MVP caused an emotional resonance to the audience. Their impressions of you had taken up a larger space in their Life Books!

Multiplying points x100. Please wait...]

Heart bouncing in pleasant surprise, Rayen was even pleased to see a sticker of Mini Plotter below the line of text, calculating using an abacus.

A few moments later, the text in the window changed.

[257 >> 25,700]

A massive 25,700 points...

Rayen gulped seeing the large number displayed on the screen of his phone. Only when Yeon Miwol’s voice came through the speakers did Rayen snap awake.

"Participant Rayen, please come up to the stage to thank the people who voted for you."

Rayen feigned a cough as he saw himself still being the focus of the cameras. Quickly, he left the room and headed for the stage. When Yeon Miwol handed him the mic, the people cheered loudly.

Rayen flashed a radiant smile.

In Minji’s eyes, Rayen, who was wearing a black beret and gothic doll attire, seemed to sparkle in contrast with his outfit.

"Good job, Rara!!!" she shouted.

’Rara?’

"Participant Rayen, congratulations. Can you say something to your fans and the audience who voted for you?"

Rayen nodded, gulping as he scanned the crowd waiting for his words.

What was the right thing to say in this situation?

In truth, while Rayen was used to the gaze of large crowds, speaking to them was still foreign to him. Back in his past life, it was either Liam or Jared who did the talking.

"I don’t know how this happened, but thank you for all your support. Please continue supporting me and watch the show!"

Remembering that most of the audience members were South Korean, Rayen bowed deeply to express his gratitude, his heart filled with warmth.

...

After the first round, the audience members who were suddenly transported to the Flower Garden agency found themselves in yet another disorienting situation.

Inside a convenience store, a cashier noticed a man sleeping at one of the tables.

’I don’t remember him going in...’

Suddenly, the sleeping man flinched awake. On his hand, a slender black phone playing a video on UCube slipped out.

The cashier jumped in shock, but he still asked in concern. "Sir, are you okay?"

Ivan blinked away his sleepiness, still disoriented. He glanced around and saw the cashier’s eyes laced with wariness.

"What happened?" he asked.

He seemed to have encountered a poster and then... And then what?

Before the cashier could even open his mouth to answer, Ivan spotted the video on his phone screen. His memories came back to him in jumbles.

"Right! I was watching this!"

’Eh...’

Noticing the time on the clock, he jumped up in panic.

"I have to go to work!"

Ivan ran out of the store, leaving the cashier with a question mark on his face.

...

Before the team disbanded and parted ways, Rayen’s self-proclaimed students cried in anguish.

"I want to keep being teammates with Crunchy Bro..." Binh cried.

’I don’t want to. Give me a break, I’m not your Crunchy Bro!’

Binh hadn’t had the chance to apologize to Yeo Haru yet. The guy had been avoiding him ever since their huge fight.

Now that Rayen was out of that chaotic group, and he had nothing to do, everything seemed to return to its calm state. He was able to sleep that night without any worry about memorizing an entire choreography or expecting to break up a potential fight.

Although it was unfortunate that they didn’t win, Rayen didn’t care. With the points he earned from winning the MVP award, he was more than satisfied.

25,700 points... That was equivalent to over two million impressions on people!

[Life Book Points: 87,900 (803,051)]

’It’s already approaching 100,000 points...’

He felt terrified of the growth rate of his own Life Book points. Even without the additional points he received, his points had already reached 62,200 in a week.

While it was a happy thing to get closer to his seemingly insurmountable goal, but to get this much points, he had to sacrifice his image.

No wonder Binh had been willing to dance that way. Becoming the star of a meme was really beneficial to gaining fame...

Madame Sophie was also terrifying. If one advertisement could raise his points this much in a week, what if she suddenly decided to film another one?

No.

’I’d rather lie down in my coffin than film another meme ad.’

However, his point growth had been slowing down these past few days...

Rayen shook his head.

’What am I even thinking?!’

Today, as everyone was still reeling from the first round, the production staff summoned the participants in the lounge.

It was quite unusual since they usually gathered inside the dance practice studio. It had been a while since Rayen had even been down here. Was it last week? Or last, last week?

After the first day’s incident, he hadn’t thought of coming back here.

But recalling that first day...

So, he’d been dead for almost half a month now? How come there was still no news about them?

Sigh.

’Damn Liam.’

Liam still wouldn’t answer his questions.

Meanwhile, an old nuisance had returned to haunt Rayen.

Sighing in relief, Adrian exclaimed, "I’m finally out of that woman’s grasp!"

"Who?"

Adrian glanced around before whispering, "Ara’s scary. Try to avoid being her teammate if possible."

Rayen only stared at him.

Over the past few days, he had noticed Adrian sleeping like a log whenever he returned to their room, as though he was even more exhausted than Rayen, who practiced all day. And Adrian also barely ate before running back to the practice studio.

Life had been peaceful without Adrian trailing after him.

’I hope he’ll be teammates with her again.’

Finally, the staff appeared alongside the short Plotter. Rayen hadn’t seen him these past few days.

Oh, right... He was constantly being bothered by this Entity’s system version.

Plotter stood in front of the participants. Despite his short stature, the participants didn’t underestimate him — especially those who witnessed the first day’s incident. His playful smile was practically a nightmare from their dreams.

However, there was no smile on his face today. Instead, there were two dark circles under his eyes.

"Can I request a few things from you, guys?" Plotter began, inducing several question marks from the participants.

Opening his mouth, the participants thought he was just about to announce something very important. But what came out of his mouth wasn’t in line with their thoughts.

Plotter grumbled in discontent. He massaged his temples and exclaimed, "Let me sleep!"

’Huh?’
