Chapter 278 Stage Name

The eight members of EVE stared into oblivion, already feeling stressed about the amount of work they had to do in such a short amount of time.

"Gosh, what did we sign up for?" Casper asked. "We can't overwork cats," he said, pointing to June.

June glared at him before sighing in defeat, knowing that Casper was right. A comeback in less than a month already sounded impossible. However, knowing Azure, they'd try to make it possible...even if it meant overworking their artists. Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

"Hey," Sehun cheered them up. "At least, we're idols now, right? And we'll be having our very first live! Isn't that exciting?"

"I guess it is," Akira said. "I can't wait to meet our fans."

Just then, the door opened, and Mr. Ong (who was still in his chair) came in with a new person—a man appearing to be in his early 30s entered the room with a curt smile.

"Right, he just arrived, so I wasn't able to introduce him to you earlier," Mr. Ong said. "This is Lee Chul, your manager starting from today."

June observed the seemingly innocent-looking man and bowed his head in respect.

Chul made eye contact with everyone, greeting them with bright smiles. However, when he locked gazes with June, he merely gave him a nod of acknowledgment.

June's eyebrows furrowed, but he let it go since it could have been a mere coincidence.

"I still have a lot of work to do," Mr. Ong said. "So Chul will be going over everything you need to know before your live."

As soon as Mr. Ong left the room, Chul slumped on the couch. "I'm a huge fan of the show," he started off. "Can I get your autograph, Zeth and Casper? I've always been a big fan! It's a shame Jaxon and Jinsol aren't here," he muttered under his breath.

Zeth and Casper looked a bit weirded out, but they gave their autographs nonetheless.

"Thank you for this," their new manager excitedly said, pocketing their autographs.

"Let's first start off with your personal accounts," Chul said, going back to professional mode. "We will not ask you to delete your accounts or forbid you from posting on it. However, you need to ask permission whenever you want to post something."

They nodded in understanding.

"As far as I know, all of you have personal accounts except for June, right?" Chul asked.

"I have a personal account," June said.

"Oh, you do? What's your name?" Jisung excitedly asked.

"I can't say it," June said. "I need to write it."

"Oh gosh," Akira exclaimed amidst his laughter. "Hoho? Are they serious about that?"

"The center of a new idol team is actually going to be named Hoho? I don't know about you, but that sounds quite iconic," Zeth chimed. "Ah, I'm glad I'm not in the center now."

June glared at Zeth, causing the latter to laugh even harder.

"I thought they were great at making names. Nico, whose name was originally Paul Ni...Ni Paul benefited from getting a good stage name," Sehun said.

"Where'd you even learn that? And is he mixed?" Ren asked.

"From C-Jay. That kid knows everything...and yes, I believe. I think he's half Nepalese," Sehun responded.

"Well, that explains it," Jaeyong said. "Seriously, though, do you think they're serious about June's name? I don't think I can take him seriously if that happens."

"They're not serious," Casper said. "They definitely can't be serious."

June hoped so.

However, once the door opened and Chul came in with a tripod, June knew that they were being serious.

"Hoho, set this up," he said, giving the tripod to June.

"Gosh," Jisung whispered. "I think they're serious."

June pursed his lips in frustration. Were centers usually treated like this?

He set up the tripod (after much difficulty) and propped the phone on the stand. However, Jisung quickly came to his aid since June didn't know how to set up a live stream.

"We're rolling!" Jisung exclaimed, pulling June back to the couch.

The members of the new idol group perked up, looking at the camera like lost meerkats waiting for their next prey.

"How does this work again?" June whispered to Jisung.

"We're waiting for people to come in," Jisung whispered back. "Oh, I think they're here. We have 10,000 viewers now! Let's greet them."

Zeth looked around and cleared his throat.

"Hi, guys!" he exclaimed. "We are the members of EVE. Thanks for tuning in to our first live!"
