That’s how I was forced to change jobs to Hari Leader Center… .

“… Yes, then I will be our team leader and center according to the votes. Thank you all for your support.”

“Wow-!”

“Then let’s talk about the song first.”

I proceeded quickly.

This was because the song was difficult and required a lot of discussion and practice.

however… .

“The vocal range is so high that it seems difficult to follow the original song. What do you think?”

“… … .”

These damn things didn’t say anything when I asked for their opinion.

“… First of all, do you all agree to lower the pitch a bit?”

“Yes-!!”

Only when I asked for consent did they respond with one voice, making me feel like a kindergartener.

“… Does anyone have any arrangement ideas?”

“… … .”

“Phew… , Then let’s start with the choreography by lowering the pitch and following the mood of the original song.”

“Yes-!!”

So, somehow, our first team started cruising towards the second team competition.

Creak, creak, creak, I could already hear an unpleasant sound… .

We quickly decided on a leader and center, as well as a song concept.

Anyway, it was a cruise.

… I decided to think so.

**

Fortunately, though, it didn’t take too long to figure out the choreography.

It was because Nahanna’s dancing ability was much better than I thought.

Na Hanna’s dancing stats were lower than mine, but the stats were not limited to visible numbers.

“… Hanna, how old were you when you started dancing?”

“… yes? hmm… , I danced it before I entered elementary school, but I don’t remember exactly.”

The experiences and sensations that remain in the body.

“Yerin unni. Didn’t you know? Hannah’s older sisters are also very famous dancers.”

“… Really?”

“Yes, the shorts Hannah took with her family are very famous.”

Plus the natural blood flowing through the body.

Hannah Na was a truly natural dancer, and thanks to that, we were able to pick up the choreography quickly.

‘The level of other team members is not as bad as I thought.’

Even the other team members’ stats weren’t bad compared to their rankings, and above all, there was no one like Seo Yu-jin who was talking nonsense.

Surprisingly, I thought that our first team’s second team competition might end smoothly.

… Until now.

“Now that we have all the choreography, the only thing left is practice.”

“That’s right.”

“Then let’s practice hard from now on.”

“Yes, work hard starting tomorrow.”

“… … Huh?”

“… … Hmm?”

… Did I just hear wrong?

I felt like there was something out of focus in the conversation, so I asked Hannah Na.

“… Hannah, what did you just say?”

“I told you to work hard starting tomorrow?”

“… Starting tomorrow?”

As soon as Nahanna finished speaking, I looked at the clock.

The current time was 11:41 PM.

Of course it was late at night… .

“It’s not even 12 o’clock yet?”

Time flows differently in Naaah than outside.

Now was not the time to sleep in Naaa, but a time to burn with practice.

but… .

“… Haam. Because right now is the time when I absolutely have to sleep.”

… I guess my time passed differently than mine.

“If I don’t sleep now, I won’t be able to move my body properly because I won’t be efficient. There must be a lot of other teams that haven’t even created a choreography yet? I made progress quickly, but I’ll go in early today and rest. … Can’t we?”

“… … .”

I couldn’t help but be dazed for a moment when I saw Nahanna asking for my consent.

‘… It’s not even 12 o’clock yet, so let’s go to bed?’

I never fell asleep before 12 o’clock during the final grading and first team competition.

1 or 2 a.m. is standard, 3 or 4 a.m. is optional.

Even up to 5 o’clock if you overdo it.

‘… I’m not sleepy at all right now.’

Rather, they are so full of energy that they are pulsating. It seemed like I could easily continue practicing for the next 3 to 4 hours.

But unlike me, Nahanna seemed really sleepy and her normally closed eyes were even more closed.

… It feels like I’m going to pass out if I don’t send her to bed right away.

“… Yes, if you’re tired, go to sleep.”

“Yes, thank you for your hard work.”

When I was allowed to go back, Nahanna lowered her head.

Because Nahanna was missing, there was no point in putting it together.

I had no choice but to tell the other team members this.

“Other people too… , If anyone wants to rest, let’s rest.”

“… … .”

Then everyone looked at me… .

“Then me too… .”

“We definitely got the choreography quickly… !”

“If there is no one person, practice is meaningless anyway, right?”

“We will work really hard starting tomorrow!”

Rumble-.

I followed Nahanna back to the dorm.

“Ha… .”

When I came to my senses, I was the only one in the practice room.

I sat alone in the practice room, lost in thought.

‘Being a leader isn’t really easy.’

What would Seo Yu-jin, who was the leader during the first team competition, say if she were the leader of team 1 now?

maybe… .

‘Are you going to go to sleep with that skill now? What’s going on with everyone’s hair?! Unless you want to sleep forever, come quickly and get together!’

Even if he didn’t say anything rude, he must have calmly controlled his teammates.

“Ah… When I think about it like that, I really miss my last team members.”

When I think about it now, my team luck was very good during the first team competition.

If you were a member of the team during the first team competition, you would have been able to sing the current song without any problems.

‘If Yujin is the leader, I am the center, Hyejeong unnie does the melodrama, and Yujeong takes the overall center… , It’s perfect.’

As I was alone in the practice room like this, I thought of my last team members even more earnestly.

I was in a daze for a while thinking about my last team members, then practiced the choreography by myself for another 2 hours and then went back to my dorm.

**

I was thinking about the Mackerel Sandwich team members all night, so I spent the next morning with Park Yoo-jung and Lee Hye-jung.

I thought about Seo Yu-jin, so I knocked on Seo Yu-jin’s door… .

‘Don’t you know that Team 1, which includes my sister, and Team 2, which includes me, are competitors? My sister and I are enemies! enemy! How do you eat with your enemy? Whoa! ‘Get out!’

Teams 1 and 2 were shut out and kicked out because they were competitors.

So the three of us gathered for the first time in a while and had breakfast and started talking about our teams.

“Wow~ So it’s not even 12 o’clock and everyone is back?”

“… Yes.”

When I told them what I experienced yesterday, Park Yoo-jung and Lee Hye-jung became furious as if it were their own.

“When the leader tells you to practice, you have to jump up from your sleep, but you went to sleep?! Absolutely no concept!”

“I think most of the teams practiced until at least 1 o’clock because it was the first day yesterday… , It’s a bit weird to go back before 12 o’clock.”

In particular, Park Yoo-jung, who was always bright, spoke with a rare excitement.

“Sister! Those bad kids need to be caught by the commander-in-chief!”

“Smash it to pieces… ? Me?”

“Yes! As the leader, you have to catch the team members now so they can listen to you later!”

“But how?”

When I asked with a puzzled expression, Park Yoo-jeong looked frustrated and started giving a quick lecture.

“Yerin, you tend not to use your looks too much.”

“… Use my looks?”

“Yes, it’s hard to say this, but even though you’re a softie in your arms, your appearance is almost like the Great King of Yeomra.”

King Yeomra… I’m not sure if the expression is appropriate, but I definitely looked scary.

“So, you make a scary face and scare the kids. Follow what your sister says.”

“You mean to scare me with a scary expression? I’m an expert at making scary faces. Would you like to take a look?”

Having lived in Ha Ye-rin’s body for 19 years, I was good at making scary faces.

All you have to do is make your already expressionless face even more expressionless.

Then he lowered his mouth like this… , if you slightly narrow your eyebrows.

“Look, what do you think? Do you look scared?”

“Oh… .”

Park Yoo-jung looked at my face and covered my mouth and said to me.

“Sister… , would you mind repeating after me with that expression on your face? ‘Are you guys out of your mind right now?’”

“Are you guys out of your mind right now?”

“Ah… , I really can’t do it.”

“Ah… , I really can’t do it.”

“Kneel.”

“Kneel.”

“You pigs, come crawl over and lick my feet.”

“You pigs, crawl like that… , … Yoojeong? I think the lines are a bit strange?”

“Puhaha-! It was a joke, a joke!”

Yujeong laughed for a while, wondering what was so funny, and continued talking.

“But sister. The look on my sister’s face just now was definitely scary. Do you think someone who isn’t that close to you would be really scared when they saw your expression just now?”

“… Really?”

“Yes, I secretly have a lot of experience with this kind of fighting, right? If you make a scary face like you did just now, tone down your voice, and then pretend to be angry, they will automatically follow you.”

“Yoojeong says you have a lot of experience in fighting? Hehe, that’s even funnier.”

Park Yoo-jung, who is always bright and kind as a Gold Retriever, must have had many such experiences.

Park Yoo-jung’s bravado was funny, but it was still powerful at the same time.

In response, I expressed my gratitude by stroking Park Yoo-jung’s head.

“Anyway, thank you, Yujeong. Next time, if something like yesterday happens, I will do as you said.”

“Neng, hehe.”

So we laughed once and then moved on to the next topic of conversation.

Hyejeong Lee asked me as she ate her rice.

“But Yerin, it must be difficult to be the leader and center at the same time.”

“I guess so. I feel like the responsibility is too heavy… .”

“This is usually the case when the leader and center work together. But it’s interesting… . In this contest, there are two teams that play the leader and center roles at the same time.”

“… hmm? Are there people on other teams who are both leader and center?”

Until then, I just calmly raised my spoon, thinking that there were people on other teams who were both leaders and centers.

Although it is rare to be a leader and a center at the same time, it is not unheard of.

however… .

“Huh? Yerin, didn’t you know?”

“Sister, didn’t you know?”

Lee Hye-jung and Park Yoo-jung’s reaction to seeing me like that was unusual.

“Why? Who plays leader and center at the same time?”

“The team next to you! Even in team 2, the leader and center work together!”

“… Team 2? … Ah, Yoo Seol also plays the leader and center roles.”

When I heard that there were two teams, I paused and then understood.

If you think about it, it’s because you have the skills to be a leader and a center at the same time.

and… .

“No? It’s not Team 2 leader Seol… .”

“… ?”

“It’s Eugene!”

“… Yes?”

After hearing the unexpected identity of the leader and center of Team 2, I lost my grip.

“… What did you just say?”

“Yujin plays both leader and center on two teams. It was very noisy yesterday, but I guess I didn’t hear it because I was practicing.”

“… Eugene. therefore… .”

Putting aside the speculations, he is said to be both leader and center at the same time… ?

I acknowledge Seo Yu-jin’s skills.

Seo Yu-jin may be a bit clumsy, but she doesn’t lack talent.

However, even Seo Yu-jin’s skills are far inferior to Yu Seol’s.

‘… But leaving aside the rumors, Yujin is both leader and center?’

… … .

… why?

This was a fact that was difficult for any country to understand.
