Chapter 1370

<Episode 1370> 1370. Spirit’s Atlantis

The internet erupted into chaos due to Povitz’s maiden verification.

Though it started with Povitz, the topic quickly shifted toward other idols besides Povitz.

No one in the entertainment world was unaware of this trend.

Only the pure ones shall survive. And surviving means securing fans.

Girl groups confident in their purity used a unicorn horn to prove their innocence. Fans of verified girl groups grew more spirited, while fans of unverified ones anxiously bit their nails.

“Three days. No matter how you look at it, three days is the limit.”

If they don’t prove their purity within three days, fans will leave. Worse yet, they might turn into haters.

Couldn’t get a unicorn horn? That excuse won’t fly. It’s not hard to get one—just borrow it from an idol who already proved her maidenhood.

“Actors might have it easier, but for idols, purity is crucial.”

Idols are deities.

They may come down from that pedestal eventually, but during their time as idols, they must remain clean. Only then can fans feel safe indulging in their fandom.

“If the idol you stan turns out to be non-virgin? You instantly become a dirty rag.”

It basically means instant retirement.

In that sense, all members of Povitz are virgins. A safe ship with no risk of sinking. Ignorant pig-like fans would think so, wouldn’t they?

“I’ve eaten them all. Yesterday, today, and I plan to eat them tomorrow too~”

I wanted to shout that to the fans.

King’s ears are donkey ears!

I’ve devoured all of Povitz’s treasures!

“If only Pink Love had fallen…”

But Pink Love proved their purity live. They were all virgins. Their popularity skyrocketed.

“Let’s see… Povitz’s popularity…”

As Povitz’s manager and producer, I could check their popularity and rankings.

“Povitz’s Popularity: 911,005”

“Povitz’s Ranking: 17th”

“There’s also a site showing rankings in the 6,700 zone. Last time I checked, Pink Love was 4th place…”

“2nd – Pink Love”

They climbed to second place.

The result of proving their virginity.

I chuckled bitterly. Looks like I unintentionally helped Pink Love.

“Should other idol girl groups just fall apart?”

There’s no need to rush.

Povitz has only been active for two days. There will be plenty of chances to surpass Pink Love.

“After beating Pink Love…”

“1st – Aphrodite”

I have to overcome Aphrodite, the owner of Venus Entertainment, the beginning and end of the 6,700 zone.

Aphrodite is a headache.

The 6,700 zone worships Aphrodite as more than just an entertainer. Well, she truly is a goddess.

“Almost brainwashed level.”

She really is beautiful. But to me, there’s no significant difference between Povitz’s visuals and Aphrodite’s.

“It’s the power of the Goddess of Beauty affecting perceptions.”

One year.

With that much time, Povitz will easily surpass Aphrodite’s popularity.

I’m certain.

“But does that kind of time…”


No way. Pobits has about 20 days left. After that, Yuria and Mireung will be reverse-summoned.

We gotta settle this within 20 days!

“The easiest solution would be to just off Aphrodite… But impossible.”

Aphrodite doesn’t die in Zone 6,700. She’s under the system’s protection. If it were possible to kill Aphrodite, Zone 6,700 would’ve been cleared ages ago.

“…Aphrodite can wait. First, Pobits needs to surpass Pink Love.”

-Dark Song King!

It was a hit variety show where contestants concealed their identities and sang only using their voices.

Mireung secretly appeared on this show as a participant.

“What the heck! The identity of Dark Shirasoon was Mireung from the newly debuted girl group Pobits!”

NNG

NNG

NNG

“Mireung, that was such a sweet voice. Can you give us your victory comments?”

“I had so much fun singing like this. I wanted to prove that idols can sing well… Do you think I proved it?”

“Haha. Who in this day and age thinks idols can’t sing? We don’t look down on idols.”

-Entertainment King!

Mireung also appeared on this variety show where participants competed through games.

“It’s Mireung’s victory! Congratulations!”

“Awww… My head hurts so much…”

“How could Mireung have been a spy… Never would’ve guessed it.”

“I gave all my coins to Mireung… I feel like crying…”

The participants clapped with sad expressions while Mireung happily jumped around in the center.

“Yes! Victory! Now this gold necklace is mine! I can do whatever I want with it!”

Mireung smiled brightly.

-Street Karaoke

Just as the name suggests, it was a variety show where people sang on the streets. More accurately, it was a program where they sang with passersby.

“M-Mireung-sama! You’re even more beautiful in person than on TV!”

“Hahaha, thank you! What song should we sing?”

“Umm… I’m not a good singer…”

“Don’t worry about it. It doesn’t matter if you’re good or bad. Let’s just have fun singing!”

The variety show PDs preferred Mireung among the Pobits members…

Thanks to Mireung’s lively character. Through personal broadcasts, she had better on-screen presence than the other members and easily adapted to any variety show with her many talents.

Mireung was doing an excellent job.

-Warrior Road

Warrior Road is one of the popular variety shows in Zone 6,700.

The program gathers celebrities to put on a sports show. Of course, all participants’ stats are equally adjusted.

“Think of it as something like Start-Up Dream Team in Korean entertainment.”

Warrior Road is more intense. While it’s not lethal, mistakes could result in broken limbs.

However, Joo Seohyun dominated here like no other.

Even with the same stats as other celebrities, the way she used her body made a difference. The other celebrities couldn’t keep up with Joo Seohyun.

“Joo Seohyun is the future Sword Emperor. Her athletic talent is top-tier even in Atlantis.”

Joo Seohyun’s performance on Warrior Road was perfect. Too perfect – the other celebrities felt awe rather than jealousy toward Joo Seohyun.

“Joo Seohyun-ssi, you’re truly amazing! Were you always this good at sports?”

“…Yes. Well, I’ve never been told I was bad at sports.”

“Showing off?!”

“No! It’s not showing off…”

“Haha, just kidding. Someone as talented as Joo Seohyun-ssi deserves to show off. It’d be great if you could appear on Warrior Road again next week and continue your amazing performances… Is that possible?”

“Hmm. I’ll have to discuss it with my agency.”

“This is gonna make the main PD’s ass catch fire.”

After filming ended, Joo Seohyun walked over to me. We headed toward the car together, and I naturally extended my hand to her.

“What is it?”

“Give it. I saw that muscular guy secretly passing you a note earlier.”

“…You saw that?”

“I was watching you the whole time during filming.”

“…”

Joo Seohyun wrinkled her nose. Her cheeks turned slightly red.

“As for the other members…”


I’m sure she’ll behave herself, but Joo Seo-hyun is genuinely worrisome. I have this uneasy feeling that if I look away for just a second, she’ll cause some kind of accident.’

Moreover, ‘Warrior Road’ is quite a rough program compared to other variety shows. Even to prevent any accidents before they happen, Joo Seo-hyun needed constant supervision.

Joo Seo-hyun handed me the note she received from the muscular guy.

“Did you read the note?”

“No. I was about to throw it away. What’s written in it anyway?”

“It says something about having dinner and includes a phone number. Who is this guy trying to flirt with? Should I just kill him?”

I’ve already decided to do so.

If I kill him right now, I’d raise suspicion, so I’ve decided to wait for the right opportunity later.

Joo Seo-hyun furrowed her brows as much as possible.

“I’m not your woman.”

“What are you talking about? You’re my woman.”

“I’ve told you countless times… You will eventually die by my hands.”

“Yeah, yeah. And until then, you’re my woman.”

I stopped trying to drive. Right now, there’s only me and Joo Seo-hyun in the car. I moved from the driver’s seat to where Joo Seo-hyun sat in the backseat.

“Aren’t you driving?”

“We have about an hour to spare. I originally planned to go eat, but that won’t work. I need to properly show you who you belong to.”

I got closer to Joo Seo-hyun. Her body, which had been running around the set earlier, was drenched in sweat.

“W-What are you doing right now, you pervert…”

“We’ve done outdoor sex a few times already, haven’t we? Ah, this is the first time for car sex though. I can smell your familiar sweat.”

Joo Seo-hyun glared at me like she wanted to kill me. Regardless, my hand naturally moved to start taking off her clothes.

I massaged her ample breasts and rubbed my dick against her pussy. Despite glaring at me, her pink nipples hardened, and some arousal fluid started leaking from her pussy. While enjoying her sweat-soaked smooth skin, I pressed my body against hers.

“Haaah…”

Creak creak.

The parked car shook slightly.

-The Secret Recipe.

A variety show where celebrities showcase their cooking skills.

Of course, Yuria participated on Porbits. All the participants were astounded by Yuria’s cooking skills.

“Wow, Yuria’s cooking skills are incredible. The speed of her knife work is… comparable to a top chef.”

“You can tell just by watching the cooking process. This dish will definitely be the best.”

“A perfect chicken steak made from chicken thighs.”

The participants each took a bite as a taste test.

“I’ve never tasted anything like this before. Is this chicken or steak?”

“Ugh. My late grandfather comes to mind… He loved chicken…”

“Yuria, would you consider going into business with me? I’m serious, not joking. We could make a huge hit.”

The participants showed various reactions.

The MC regained his composure first, managing the situation and continuing the show.

“Alright, everyone, pull yourselves together. We still need to broadcast. Yuria, please choose one person to treat with your dish. The chosen one will get to eat Yuria’s chicken steak. Please choose me!”

“What happens if I don’t choose anyone?”

“Then the cook herself can eat it. I’ll clean the plate for you. So please choose me.”

“Can I choose someone from the people here?”

“Yes, just choose me.”

At the MC’s persistence, Yuria quietly smiled. She picked up the plate with the food and moved. She completely ignored the MC.

“…Huh…”

The MC collapsed right there. The participants’ faces lit up with anticipation, but soon sadness clouded them too. Yuria brought the food to me.

“Producer, please eat it. I want you to enjoy this dish.”

“Yuria… This is problematic…”

I looked at the main PD. He nodded, signaling it was fine. I acted touched as I accepted Yuria’s plate.

“I’ll eat well, Yuria.”

Cutting and eating the chicken steak, tears almost welled up in my eyes from how movingly delicious it was.
