The Crown Prince in the Mang Game is Good at Idols - Chapter 236
Only Noblemtl
Episode 236
As previously mentioned, the members all returned to their accommodations within 2-3 days.
There was also a guy like Kang Si-yoon who received various side dishes.
There was also a guy who brought his favorite items that he had forgotten to pack before.
“Hey, is our fridge going to explode?”
“Oh my. Who the hell put that in there so thoughtlessly? Get out of the way.”
“Hahaha, I was trying to organize it.”
“It didn’t look like that at all.”
Chae Eun-gyu came carrying a huge kimchi refrigerator box on his back.
Inside, there were various foods such as vegetables, jeon, anchovies, and stir-fried dishes.
As you can see from his room, Chae Eun-gyu has no talent for organizing, so Kang Si-yoon rolled up her sleeves and organized the refrigerator herself.
“He told me not to just eat meat, but to eat vegetables too.”
“Ugh, I don’t like vegetables.”
When Heo Yu-bin wrinkled his nose slightly like a cat, Song Hyeong-bin gently pushed his head with his finger and clicked his tongue.
“You’re an adult now, so you shouldn’t be a picky eater like a child.”
“Can’t we just stay children forever?”
“No.”
“yes.”
Heo Yu-bin, who tends to accept what his brothers say, nodded, but his expression was still gloomy.
I smiled slightly to myself.
Even if you say that, it’s clear that when the vegetables come up tonight, you definitely won’t reach for your chopsticks.
Meanwhile, in the living room, Yu Min-ha and Ji Yoon-cheol were sitting in front of the TV.
“I definitely brought the right cable to connect this… … Ah, here it is. Yuncheol, you shouldn’t sit on this.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“Your butt must have hurt because of the code. Are you okay?”
“……are you okay.”
“You don’t have any feeling in your butt, do you?”
Yumin was connecting the game console he brought from home to the TV in his room.
A world-famous video game console called the Playbox.
Since there was almost nothing to do at the accommodation, Yumin brought several of his own game consoles from his parents’ house this time.
Ji Yoon-cheol was watching him wrestle with the lines with great interest.
“Can four people do this at once?”
“Yeah! If you have a console, four people can play the same game together. Hasn’t Yuncheol done something like this?”
“Yes. I’m not that interested in games.”
“Hmm… … . Maybe I’ll discover another hidden talent today.”
When I heard the word game, I instinctively stood next to Yumin Ha.
If it’s a game, who else has an opinion?
I personally cleared the infamous game, Grand Quest Saga.
But Yumin, who couldn’t possibly know that, smiled and asked me.
“I guess you haven’t played many games either, hyung?”
“It would be a problem if you underestimate me, Min-ha. I received thorough early education from a young age.”
“Really? What did you do, hyung?”
“Hmm… … I used to enjoy playing MarXro and Star’s KerX and things like that, Nentendo.”
I tried to avoid mentioning the extremely difficult survival games I played in my past life and instead mentioned world-famous games that everyone would know.
Then Yu Min-ha laughed loudly and shook her finger.
“Hey, bro. I think everyone here has done that at least once. Not something like that, but something really difficult. Or, you know, if you fight each other a lot in PVP, you’re considered good at the game.”
“When I hear you say that, Min-ha, you seem quite confident.”
“Of course! Whenever I had free time, I watched anime or played games, hehe.”
I snorted lightly.
Are you saying that you have to play a lot of games where you fight each other in PVP format?
I feel sorry for Yumin Ha, but I have been fighting life-or-death PVP with this body for 10 years.
Even if I exclude the time I was trapped in , I still have the experience of playing various games locked in a corner of my room while living as Han Ji-hyeok on my fingers.
And I feel sorry for the members, but this game that Yumin Ha brought is one that I used to enjoy a lot.
“What, you brought a playbox?”
“It would be fun if we all played together. What did you bring?”
“This one!”
The remaining members who finished organizing the refrigerator came to the living room and showed interest in Yu Min-ha’s playbox.
Yumin Ha raised the corners of her lips and showed off a game pack with a fancy cover.
A fairly classic fighting game where you brawl with characters from popular game titles.
“Oh, I’ve seen this video before. On YouTube.”
“I really wanted to do this when it first came out. Now I’m finally doing it.”
Kang Si-yoon and Song Hyeong-bin sat down in front of the play box with sparkling eyes.
Yumin, who had set up all four consoles, checked that the game screen was displayed properly on the TV and then gave the okay sign.
Then he pushed me and Ji Yoon-cheol forward.
“Let’s do the first round like this, four people!”
“Huh? Min-ha, you didn’t bring it because you wanted to?”
“I can join the next round, so hyungs and Yuncheol should do it first. I think it’ll be fun to watch!”
“Okay, that was good.”
Kang Si-yoon fixed his bangs and glared at Song Hyeong-bin with a solemn expression.
“This time, I’ll really make those two look bad.”
“Oh, if you can give it a try, then do it. It seems like you’ll be the first to die anyway.”
“Hey, bro. Aren’t you underestimating me?”
These days, guys with good chemistry are already starting a war of nerves.
I left them to chat away and taught Ji Yoon-cheol some simple instructions.
“First of all, since this is your first time, take it easy and try it out.”
“yes.”
The map was chosen to be a good one for beginners.
Now we get to the character select screen, where there’s a lot of chaos over who we can choose from among characters that look good together.
“Hey, I want to do a MaXo!”
“Hyung, you’re like that green-haired little brother. Don’t you know that the quick-handed one usually gets what he wants?”
“I will yield just this once.”
I leisurely moved the cursor down without caring what the three people chose or not.
Then I chose the queen character, who is considered to be a very unconventional character in this game.
“Hey, Charis! Are you really going to do Helga? That really takes a lot of work.”
“Um, um. It doesn’t matter.”
“It’s going to be really difficult… … .”
Yumin tilted her head, questioning my choice.
That makes sense. Helga is a melee character who can’t use ranged attacks that are good for her in this game, and although she has good mobility, she’s vulnerable to knockback attacks that send her flying backwards, so she can die quickly.
But I had no intention of being pushed off the stage so easily.
―Game Start!
Our characters fell from the sky, and a full-scale brawl began.
Immediately, Kang Si-yoon’s red hat character ran towards me.
“First, the one who looks the weakest―!”
“It won’t be that easy.”
I easily avoided Kang Si-yoon’s long-range fire attack by moving my fingers.
Then, instead of jumping up and evading backwards, he dashed forward and quickly closed the distance.
“Wow, what just happened!”
“It’s a combo technique. Don’t you know that?”
“How could you know!”
My character has no ranged attacks, but is quite powerful in close combat.
I gently entered a command into the console and mixed my knee kick and power drive skills to blow Kang Si-yoon out of the stadium.
Kang Si-yoon accumulated one death point in just 10 seconds.
“wow…….”
“Hey, something seems wrong here? Hey, Min-ha! That’s a difficult character!”
“I’m a little surprised now too.”
While one person was away, I immediately rushed to my next target, Song Hyeong-bin.
“Don’t come! Don’t come!”
“Even if you say that… … .”
“I’ll shoot this!”
Song Hyeong-bin fired the bazooka, a drop item he had obtained, at me.
However, I quickly used the ‘kick’ command and easily deflected the attack.
The command itself is complex and requires timing to bounce it off, so it is a very difficult technique unless you have a certain level of skill.
Song Hyeong-bin, who was hit by the bazooka he shot, was also blown out of the stadium.
“… … .”
“… … .”
“… … I’ll just give up.”
So the first edition ended blandly.
Yumin Ha, who couldn’t stand to watch any longer, curiously issued a challenge to me.
“I’ve been doing this for years! I definitely beat Charis here!”
“Confidence is good, Min-ha.”
But this time, too, I felt like I was experiencing deja vu from the basketball game.
Yumin Ha always starts off confident, but ends up collapsing in the end.
I put up a good fight against my Helga, but she couldn’t push me out of the stadium.
It seemed like he could be a little more lenient with his younger brother.
But the gamer’s DNA imprinted on my body became consumed with competitive spirit, and I ended up dealing with it with all my heart.
“This is a lie… … .”
Yumin put the console down on the floor and fell to his knees.
“Brother Charis.”
“hmm?”
“If there’s a competition where idols play games together later, you have to participate, okay?”
“Haha… … . I see.”
I don’t know if such a competition will actually be planned, though.

The sweet holiday season is over.
As the end of January approached, we headed to the Sigma Entertainment building to have a meeting about our next comeback.
“Welcome! Have you all had a good rest?”
“yes!”
“I was so excited for your comeback that my body kept tingling!”
The planning department and A&R team members warmly welcomed us with enthusiasm.
The planning director reported that the outline for the next comeback has been largely decided.
“This comeback is targeted for late March to early April. Do you all know what season that is?”
“It’s time for spring to come.”
“And cherry blossoms too!”
“Yes, that’s right. I’m working on a new song for the coming warm spring.”
Releasing seasonal songs is one of the strategies that has been proven countless times in the music industry.
It is no exaggeration to say that if just one seasonal song becomes a huge hit, you will receive a pension every year.
And it would also be a good advantage to be able to come up with a concept that would appeal not only to the fandom but also to the general public.
What’s important is what kind of concept you digest in relation to spring.
“This song will be an electronic synth pop genre. It will feature light and bright electronic sounds and a guitar playing behind them. I’ll play you the demo version.”
They’ve already made a demo version, so it looks like they’re working at a fast pace as usual.
Sigma Entertainment is a company that knows how to row properly when the water comes in.
We nodded our heads after listening to a short melody that lasted about a minute.
“I can definitely feel the bright atmosphere.”
“Does it seem okay?”
“How is Yubin?”
Song Hyeong-bin asked Heo Yu-bin, who has outstanding musical ability within the team.
Then Heo Yu-bin nodded without a moment’s hesitation.
“I liked it because it was an uncommon melody but it was catchy. When I think of spring, the only thing that comes to mind is gentle songs, so I was worried about how the song would turn out, but I think I can add enough choreography to it.”
“Yubin is cool, cool.”
“Hey, no. This is something anyone can think of.”
But the time soon came when Heo Yu-bin’s creativity would truly shine.
When the planning director gave further explanation about the lyrics and message of this song, Heo Yu-bin listened quietly and then raised his hand.
Then he started expressing his opinion in a professional manner.
“I think it would be better if the lyrics included this kind of content… … .”
