The day of pre-recording always passes by in a chaotic blur.

All members wake up at dawn and frantically repeat moving and waiting as they head to the broadcasting station.

Even there, they had to spend the remaining time until going on stage repeating moving, greetings, and rehearsals.

Our minds?

Of course we left them somewhere behind. We just hope that somewhere is on stage.

We just spent time in a daze, going here when told to go here, going there when told to go there, sitting when told to sit, and standing when told to stand.

And finally, the pre-recording time arrived.

“Waaaah!”

As we went up on stage, we could hear the fans’ cheers.

Cheers we hadn’t heard in a long time.

‘Ah, it’s started.’

Only then could we come to our senses and smile. The members’ eyes began to sparkle with energy.

“Hello!”

We waved to the fans and stood in the center stage.

“Nice to meet you~ Have you eaten?~”

“Yes!”

The fans answered excitedly. Of course I asked thinking they would have eaten.

Because among the gifts we sent as reverse support to the fans who came for pre-recording, there was also a hearty meal included.

In case there were foods they couldn’t eat or disliked, while other gifts were the same, we prepared the food so they could choose according to their preferences.

I was too busy to listen properly, but from what I briefly heard from staff, the fans’ satisfaction was very high.

By the way, Flora’s reverse support has been quite famous for being extravagant since debut, so this time too we agonized and agonized before selecting various things to send.

There wasn’t time to have a long conversation with the fans we met after so long.

After simple greetings, the first recording of 【Revenge】 immediately began and we started our stage performance.

Kyaa-

The sound of fans’ chants from the very first stage.

How long has it been since the music was released, yet they memorized all of this and shouted loudly as if to kill our energy – seeing the fans like this, even while dancing seriously, the corners of my mouth naturally turned up.

What a longed-for and welcome sound this was.

Of course, since the concept was what it was, I had to quickly hide my expression, but definitely performing on stage with the fans’ voices gave me strength…

“Fuck! Come out! You bastard!”

…Huh?

Did I mishear?

I couldn’t hear well because of the in-ear monitor, but it sounded like profanity…

I hesitated for a moment, but since the song was still playing, I continued the choreography.

But then once more.

“Ji-ye!!!! Fuck, I can’t see!!!! Move the cameras!!!!”

Profanity was heard at a timing completely different from the fan chants.

And soon the audience seats began to murmur and the atmosphere started becoming chaotic.

Finally.

“We’ll stop for a moment. Cut the music.”

The music stopped along with the director’s voice that seemed to suppress anger.

…What’s going on? The members looked at each other with confused faces, then shifted their gaze to the audience seats.

When I removed my in-ear monitor, I could finally hear the fans’ voices properly.

“What are you doing, seriously.”

“Where? Who is that person.”

“Stop causing trouble and get out.”

The fans were criticizing someone.

I shielded the lighting pouring down from above with my hand and watched the fan section carefully.

Someone was being grabbed by the production staff and dragged out of the venue.

Even during this, his voice pierced through all the fans’ and production staff’s voices, sounding tearingly loud.

“Ryu Ji-ye!!! I came to see you!!!! You bastards, let go of this!!!!! Ah, shit!!!!”

“…”

“Is it okay to treat a fan like this? You crazy bastards!!! You thug assholes!!!!”

What is he doing right now?

I was genuinely bewildered. Perhaps this was an even more bewildering situation than when the system window first appeared before me.

Some fan…

No, some crazy bastard was almost howling my name and reaching out toward me.

If the production staff weren’t grabbing and dragging him out, it looked like he would immediately come up on stage and approach me.

His eyes looked strange somehow.

The word “crazy bastard” wasn’t just a metaphor – his eyes looked genuinely dangerous, as if he was excessively intoxicated by something.

I couldn’t see his face clearly, but.

‘Is it okay to just kick him out like that and end it?’

Of course, since he only caused a disturbance, the production staff can only warn him and kick him out.

‘This is somehow…’

Seeing those eyes constantly following me gives me an ominous feeling.

Anyway, the situation calmed down shortly after.

Of course, the director was thoroughly angry that some crazy bastard ruined the first recording, and the fans were displeased, worried they might all get kicked out because of that crazy bastard.

Anyway, filming resumed.

Still, there was time to communicate with fans during breaks in filming, so we had prepared things to talk about and things we wanted to ask.

But both the fans and we had to watch the production staff’s mood, so we could only make brief eye contact and quietly finish the recording.

***

“What was that.”

“Who was that person earlier?”

“I was really shocked. I wasn’t that nervous before, but because of that the atmosphere became tense and I got all stiff.”

The atmosphere in the waiting room after pre-recording was also very bad.

The manager seemed to have gone to apologize to the production staff for poor fan management, and we quietly talked about that incident earlier.

All the members said they felt it. That he was someone who looked dangerous.

And their gazes naturally turned toward me.

The member that person kept crying out for was me. If that person gets involved with us again, the target would definitely be me.

The members were worried about me. I smiled broadly at them.

“I’m fine. But I’m more worried about Manager Unnie.”

How much is she getting scolded by the director, really.

As for me, well. Honestly, I’m worried and scared, but I also know there are many people around to protect me.

It’s good to prepare for things that haven’t happened yet, but I don’t want to worry about them in advance.

“I think we need to pay attention to security. For a while, we should also filter gifts and such before receiving them.”

During the time when we’ll meet fans the most, I didn’t want to start with this kind of atmosphere, which is just regrettable.

That’s when it happened.

Ding!

[A Sub Quest has arrived!]

‘Eliminate the threat called love’

An entity threatening you has appeared.

Suspect and be careful of everything around you.

Find evidence of the threat and the culprit, then eliminate them!

Difficulty: Maximum

Reward: Seong Bul-do 10%, Buff Random Box V2

“Hueok!”

“Oh my! Why! What’s wrong?”

Min Ha-young looked at me in startled surprise at my bizarre sound.

But I still couldn’t take my eyes off the system window.

Not because of the content, but because of the reward.

As for the content, I was going to think it would be disappointing if it didn’t appear since it’s an incident worthy of a sub-quest.

‘The reward is 10% Seong Bul-do? What’s this Buff Random Box Version 2?’

Without thinking about the watching eyes, my mouth hung open as I examined the quest window.

This was the first time I’d seen maximum difficulty.

Does a sub-quest give such big rewards when it reaches maximum difficulty?

I thought sub-quests were just given to fill up cash here and there while solving main quests, but this gives more Seong Bul-do than even main quests?

‘No, just how difficult is it going to be…’

“Ji-ye, what’s wrong? What is it?”

“She’s been acting strange since earlier. Was she that shocked?”

“Do you want to lie down and rest? Should we make room for you?”

Only after thoroughly scanning all the text in the quest window did I hear the members’ worried voices.

I snapped my gaping mouth shut and shook my head.

“No. I just remembered a schedule I forgot. It’s nothing.”

“I thought something happened. Hey, don’t startle me! I’m seriously jumping at every breath right now!”

While Min Ha-young was scolding me, my mind was spinning rapidly.

A maximum difficulty threat.

Is there any need to say it in a roundabout way as ‘a threat in the name of love’?

This is a stalker.

A stalker has attached themselves to me.

I think the maximum difficulty here doesn’t mean it’s hard to find evidence and the culprit.

It means I’ll experience extreme stress and fear while being tormented.

Not just me, but all the members living together.
