God's Atlantis
Six-twenty the morning after debut.
I scratched at my messy hair and pushed myself upright in bed. The members of Pobitz lay sprawled naked all around me.
Ju Seo-hyeon's ass was planted on my thigh. I grabbed that firm, springy flesh and kneaded it. Her cheeks parted, revealing her pussy and asshole. Thick white fluid was still dripping from both holes.
With my free hand I picked up my phone.
Last night I watched the music video hit 1.2 million views. Let's see where it is now…
4.02 million.
The count had quadrupled. The surge had cooled a little compared to yesterday, but every refresh still showed the numbers climbing steadily.
It's not like four million actual people watched it… more like a few hundred thousand looping the video over and over. The song's ridiculously addictive.
Still—under twenty-four hours and already four million views. That was historic by any measure.
While I was at it, I checked the fan café and the usual communities.
The boards were already on fire this early. The topic heating everything up was, of course, Pobitz.
And of that conversation, more than eighty percent was about Ju Seo-hyeon alone.
…So Ju Seo-hyeon is the type that sells in District 6700?
I glanced down at her. All I could really see was the ass currently sitting on my lower half.
Did her fans know her pussy was thick with hair and that she squeezed a cock like a vice?
Of course they don't.
I pushed a finger into her hole.
"Nngh…"
She made a soft sound and trembled, but she was too exhausted to wake. I scraped out the cum packed inside her, then set my already-hard cock against her entrance and simply waited.
Her hips moved on their own. Her pussy instinctively hunted for my dick. Slowly, wetly, she swallowed me. Inside she was hot and slick.
While I enjoyed Ju Seo-hyeon's pussy, I kept scrolling the threads talking about her.
Ah. It's not that she's the "selling" type—it's just that almost all the available info is about her.
Netizens had already dug up her origins and were combing through every scrap of her past. Virtually no one in District 6700 didn't know she came from the A-Plan Legion.
I summoned Yuria and Mi-ryeong myself. The only people who know Elena's real identity are me and the members. That leaves Ju Seo-hyeon as the only one with a public paper trail.
Which meant the others had no material for fans to obsess over.
If you want the fire to keep burning, you have to throw on more wood.
The fire couldn't be allowed to die. For the goal, it had to keep rising.
First, snap some sleeping faces and post them on SNS. Credit the photos to Mi-ryeong.
Click. Click.
I photographed the members' sleeping faces. Only Ju Seo-hyeon—cock still buried inside her—was frowning. Even the frown was pretty.
"Heh."
I uploaded the shots to Mi-ryeong's account.
A quiet laugh slipped out. The fans would never dream that these pure, innocent-looking idol girls currently had their pussies in this state.
Bzzzt.
The phone vibrated. Incoming call. Lilith.
"Yes, CEO."
"Seong PD. You're already up. How are the Pobitz girls?"
"Still asleep."
A twitch.
Ju Seo-hyeon's ass shifted. The squeeze around my cock tightened a fraction. I realized she was awake. She kept pretending to sleep, clearly with no intention of getting up. I gripped her waist and began rolling my hips slowly.
Squelch. Squelch.
"You know? Pobitz's 'Date' just hit number one on the music charts."
"I expected it. Their song is addictive."
Pobitz's "Date" hadn't originally been this strong a track. Yuria's arrangement was what had put it at the top of the charts.
"That so? I'm sending the girls' schedule. Check it. Fair warning—you'd better brace yourself. For the next week you won't have time to blink."
I opened the schedule Lilith sent.
It really was packed to the point of no free air. Mostly broadcast appearances, with interviews slotted in between.
"Looks like we won't even have time to fuck."
I raised my palm and brought it down on Ju Seo-hyeon's ass. Smack! Smack! The crisp sounds rang out. She kept playing dead to the end.
The first schedule item was a magazine pictorial shoot. Interview included.
Magazines in District 6700 were a little special. Most of what was published here leaked outside the district. It wasn't that the magazines themselves were exported—people from outer districts simply copied and spread them.
The publishers didn't fight it. Even if they tried, it would be nearly impossible to stop, and the wider the magazines spread, the more they benefited. So they deliberately looked the other way.
I loaded Pobitz into the car and drove toward the studio. Samara sat in the passenger seat.
"Yujin."
Elena called my name. I checked her in the rearview mirror. She was watching the window between the blinds with a languid expression.
"A white car has been following us for a while. Did you notice?"
"…Following us? Hold on…"
I checked the side mirror. A white mid-size sedan. I deliberately took a few wrong turns. The car maintained distance and stuck with us.
"Shit. They're really tailing us. Elena, how long have they been on us?"
"Since we left the shop."
"Seong PD. I think it's paparazzi."
Samara spoke with a stiff face. I agreed with her.
"I knew paparazzi would show up eventually, but I didn't expect them this fast. Pobitz only debuted yesterday—they haven't even properly started activities yet…"
I shared her surprise. I hadn't thought the vultures would latch on already. Looked at another way, though, it meant interest in Pobitz was already that high. Paparazzi didn't waste film on photos that wouldn't sell.
I'd love to just kill them…
But Pobitz was starving for public attention. Right now the paparazzi were useful. There were plenty of ways to exploit them. Of course, the second they crossed a line, I would step in personally.
"Girls, watch your behavior. At least when you're outside a building, assume the paparazzi are watching. Even indoors, stay away from windows. Samara, keep eyes on them."
After warning Pobitz, I continued driving while staying conscious of the tail.
We arrived at the studio.
The paparazzi couldn't enter and waited outside.
Samara and I thoroughly checked the waiting room. No hidden cameras. Next we checked the outfits. Everything was luxury brand pieces prepared by the magazine. The designs were casual everyday wear.
"I'll wait outside. Change into the pictorial clothes. Call me the second anything's wrong."
Outside the waiting room I met a middle-aged woman. Built almost as solidly as a grown man, she offered a handshake and introduced herself.
"Mirine, editor-in-chief of Palkan."
"Seong Yujin, overall producer for Pobitz."
"Not the manager? Seeing you work the site, I assumed you were."
"I handle manager duties as well."
"You keep busy. Here are the questions we plan to ask Pobitz in the interview. Please review them. If any are difficult to answer, let me know."
The documents she handed over ran to ten pages. I skimmed them quickly. Nothing particularly problematic.
"A lot of these dig for personal information."
"Ju Seo-hyeon at least has a past trail… the rest of the members might as well have dropped out of the sky. So we prepared questions like these… is that a problem?"
"A few are blatantly fishing for private life details. I'll review and tell you which ones to cut."
"Please let us know before the interview starts."
She didn't push and left cleanly.
I looked over the question sheet again. Honestly, I wasn't sure which ones to remove. The bluff for the editor had been pure posturing.
I'll need to discuss this with Yuria and Elena.
I pocketed the papers for now.
Click-click-click-click.
Dressed in everyday clothes, the Pobitz members struck poses with practiced ease.
"Good, good. You girls are incredible at posing. Be honest—you're not rookies, are you?"
The photographer couldn't hide his excitement as he kept firing the shutter.
Thanks to how well Pobitz performed, the two-hour pictorial finished in one hour, and we moved straight into the interview.
The editor-in-chief conducted it herself. That alone showed how seriously Palkan Magazine was taking Pobitz.
"First, a question for Pobitz's leader, Ju Seo-hyeon. How did you end up deciding to join an idol girl group? Was being an idol always your dream?"
"I…"
Ju Seo-hyeon glanced toward me. She had become an idol because I ordered it.
"…I was cast by Lilith Entertainment. I'd always been interested in idols, so… I decided to become one."
All lies. Editor Mirine seemed to sense it, but she said nothing and continued.
"Mi-ryeong. You post a lot of vlogs—are you interested in personal broadcasting as well?"
"Of course. If the company allows it, I'll do personal streams too. I hope the fans will watch those as well."
Mi-ryeong answered brightly and energetically.
"Yuria, there are rumors you're a noble from the Yustia Empire. Is that true?"
"No. I'm a commoner from District 3041. My family ran a small flower shop. I became an idol after receiving PD's offer."
"District 3041… that's the territory of Duke Valdert of the Yustia Empire. Have you ever met the Illusion Duke?"
"Goodness, no."
Yuria smiled and shook her head.
"Tia, are you from a mountain village?"
"…Who's spreading that nonsense? I'm of noble birth. Yuria looks like a noble and I look like some mountain village girl?"
"I didn't mean it that way. It's just what the internet communities are saying… In any case, if you're noble, can you name your house?"
"If I intended to reveal it, I would have already."
"…I see. How did you become an idol? Was it always your dream?"
"Hardly. I became an idol because… someone begged me earnestly. I couldn't refuse."
"Who was that someone?"
"It's a secret. …Though saying that would make the fans misunderstand. A staff member at Lilith Entertainment. I was cast just like the other members."
"That really shows Lilith Entertainment's competence."
The interview was winding down.
Mirine had a subordinate bring something over. A long white object. The one thing female celebrities hated most. More than a few had fallen into ruin because of it.
Contains the power of purification.
Can verify virginity.
Rank: A
In other words, a virginity tester.
"To be honest, we had no intention of using this… but Lilith Entertainment specifically requested the verification."
The virginity check.
This had been my idea.
What did an idol's fans want most? For the idol they supported to be a pure virgin.
At least, that was how I had felt.
Pobitz is a pure-type idol girl group. Prove they're virgins and fan loyalty will skyrocket overnight!
And once Pobitz proved it once, every other idol would be forced to prove it too.
Refuse the test and dodge? Instantly branded non-virgin and sent straight to hell. A real virgin would have no reason to refuse in the first place.
"If a virgin holds the Unicorn's Horn, it shines white. If a non-virgin holds it, it turns black. Please take the Unicorn's Horn one by one."
"……"
The faces of every Pobitz member went rigid. No one had told them they would be undergoing a virginity test here.
All of them shot me looks begging for help. I walked over to Mirine without hesitation.
"Hold on. Is that really a Unicorn's Horn?"
"Yes. It's genuine. If you don't trust it, check for yourself."
Mirine held the Unicorn's Horn and passed it to me. When she gripped it, the horn had turned black. Non-virgin. She was a middle-aged woman—being a virgin at that age would have been stranger.
I took the Unicorn's Horn. It returned to pure white. The horn did not react to men.
I activated my unique trait, Deception (SS).
Deception
Temporarily falsifies the effect of the Unicorn's Horn.
"Hmm. It's the real Unicorn's Horn."
I held the Unicorn's Horn out to Ju Seo-hyeon. She hesitated, then took it with trembling hands.
The Unicorn's Horn, which should have turned black, shone with a brilliant white light.
