"It's starting. It's starting!" Akira excitedly exclaid when the intro of Quiz God was finally shown.
"Quiz god…Quiz god…Who's smart, and who's dumb?" Jisung and Ren excitedly sang to the tune.
"I still can't believe that's the real the song," Casper chuckled, popping popcorn in his mouth.
Sehun took the initiative to cook so popcorn for the boys as they all gathered to watch the anticipated show that Jaeyong and June joined.
It was the very last variety show they were waiting for to air.
'Forgetting Sisters' and 'Idol Space' aired in one day in different ti slots, and the mbers also watched them together.
The mbers who joined the aforentioned variety shows made a good impression on its audience. Akira definitely made a huge mark on the show, having most of the screen ti among the guests.
His crazy personality beca more apparent, and the editors seed to like his unhinged comnts.
anwhile, the three mbers who went on 'Idol Space' trended on Navel because of their handso looks.
In short, even if their song had fallen down from the top five of the Durian charts, they were still sitting pretty at the 7th spot because of the mbers' efforts on those two variety shows.
However, even after these two shows had aired, it couldn't be denied that the group was the most excited for Quiz God.
"Are you still not going to spoil the show?" Akira asked Jaeyong.
Jaeyong shook his head, focusing his eyes on the TV.
Zeth groaned in frustration. "You've been keeping it to yourself since last week. Chul isn't saying anything, too. I almost ssaged Ocho about the outco of the show, but I held myself back because I didn't want my pride getting hurt."
Ren clicked his tongue. "For real. What happened during the show? You two were silent the mont you ca back from filming."
"It was tiring," June nonchalantly said. "There were too many rounds."
Jaeyong chuckled and nodded in agreent.
Akira scoffed. "For all I know, the two of you are just ashad you were eliminated in the first round. Co on, tell your dearest mbers. We promise we won't judge you," he smiled.
June raised his eyebrows in suspicion.
Akira chuckled. "Alright, maybe we'll laugh a tiny bit, but it's just so friendly teasing! It's not going to be serious."
June shook his head. "Just watch the show."
His teammates collectively sighed before turning to the television.
- I'm here for June!
- June's probably not going to make it too far. That boy is talented, but I've seen his grades.
- You're right. But hey, at least we're being graced with EVE's handso faces.
The show finally started, and Jaeyong felt his heart pumping like it did back on the actual filming set of Quiz God.
Surprisingly, the other mbers stayed silent as they watched the show.
After the first question was asked, Akira was surprised to see that his teammates passed with flying colors.
"Eyy, you got lucky," he nudged Jaeyong's shoulders. "It's actually related to our title track."
"Yeah, I was really lucky," Jaeyong said. "I was lucky up until the 7th question."
His mbers' eyes widened with Jaeyong's short spoiler.
"You made it that far?" Akira asked with wide eyes.
His teammates almost couldn't believe it.
Jaeyong really made it to seven full rounds.
However, what was more shocking was that June was actually doing better than most of the participants.
"Bro," Jisung nudged his shoulder. "You look really smart."
Jaeyong smirked as he looked at his teammates' bewildered faces. He, too, was in a similar state when he watched the show live.
At this point of the show, there were only three contestants left—and one of them was June.
- What is this? I thought June and I were both dumb.
- I can't believe he got to the top three.
- I'm not sure whether this is luck or sothing…but it's very impressive.
- It's definitely not luck. You should watch Rising Stars. He's a famous black kitty.
- I'm actually not familiar with these idols, but I might give the show a watch. This episode is so entertaining for so reason.
There were four categories left on the board.
Zibo smirked as he glanced at his competitors.
"Chinese history," he said with confidence.
Honey visibly sighed in disappointnt while Zibo remained looking victorious.
Clips of the audience were shown while the assistant pulled out the question.
"It's over," a middle-aged man said.
"It would have been fun to watch a showdown, but I guess the show ends here," another said.
"Zibo's Chinese, right? The other two are Korean. I feel like the winner is already decided."
Zibo once again glanced at June. He couldn't help but want to show off to the pink-haired idol.
When they perford at the Abracadabra festival, their performance was completely overshadowed by EVE's performance.
Because of their technical difficulty that turned into a perfect harmony, Zibo felt like MORPH3D lost their chance to trend on Navel. So, he wanted to get back at EVE's center in so kind of way.
Zibo expected June to be taken aback; however, he was surprised to see June's nonchalant expression.
All throughout the ga, he found it pretty hard to read June.
He also wasn't sure whether the 'Euler's identity' incident was just a wild guess, but Zibo knew he was unbeatable in this area.
For Zibo, a question about Chinese history was sothing he could only answer.
anwhile, June tried his hardest not to show an evil smile.
First, it would scare off the audience.
Second, it would show that he was actually happy with the chosen category.
He was praying in his mind for it to be chosen, and it seed like his prayers had been granted.
He loved Chinese history!
"Let's see the question!" Kim San announced.
The mbers of EVE held their breaths. Although they couldn't believe that June made it this far, they also rooted for their fellow teammate.
"Everyone knows that Beijing is China's capital, but it was not a capital for a long period before. Which three dynasties was it a capital of? Write the answer in chronological order."
Zibo confidently wrote the answer without even thinking for a second.
Out of the three finalists, it was obvious that Honey struggled the most. She was proficient and confident in all the other categories except for this one, and Zibo just had to choose it.
- It was a good run, my June.
- It definitely ends here.
- Zibo's confidence can't be defeated! He's got this one in the bag.
June wrote slowly, not wanting to give anything away.
They were only given 30 seconds for the question, so it passed by in a blink of an eye.
"Let go of your pens," Kim San smiled, "let's reveal the answers one by one."
"Let's start off with Honey," he said.
Honey pursed her lips before showing her whiteboard, shaking her head in disappointnt.
The audience murmured among themselves as they saw the blank board.
June subtly shook his head as he looked at their disappointed faces. June would like to see them do better than Honey!
"Ah, I'm sorry, my dear," San apologetically said.
"This is the end of your journey in Quiz God. Do not fret. We will give you so goodies before you go since you made it into the top three."
Honey bowed. "Thank you for giving this great opportunity. It was really fun," she said despite her disappointnt.
Kim San nodded in acknowledgnt before turning to the two boys left on the seats.
"And then, there were two," he said. "Player Zibo, please raise your board."
'Yuan, Ming, Qing'
June looked at Zibo's board and internally cursed.
anwhile, Kim San nodded in approval.
"As expected," he said. "You got it correct, Zibo. Now, if June gets this question wrong, Zibo will automatically take the crown. However, if June manages to get it right, we're going to conduct the showdown!"
The mbers of EVE were enthralled by the show.
"There's no way," Zeth muttered under his breath.
"Did you get it wrong this ti?" Akira nervously asked.
June, for the first ti in the night, appeared to be in distress. His eyes darted everywhere, and his fingers fidgeted on top of the table.
"Player June, please raise your board."
With a wavering gaze, June hesitantly raised his board.
