Sorry, after the fortieth stage, he stopped pretending. He came clean: he’d freaking fused with the villain.
A boy who can see the future, a lucky girl, and a neat freak who never gets sleepy form a mismatched team and plunge into an endless game.
From humans fighting one another to a purgatory where the living and the dead coexist, every stage is a gamble with their lives.
Only when their captain vanishes in the twilight between dusk and midnight does he realize that the so-called player faction is nothing more than a shadow organization’s breeding ground.
The moment his points hit zero, the shadow organization reaches out to him: “Want to live? Join us.”
While the other players are still scrambling for the keys to clear the stage, he takes the shadow organization’s invitation and steps into the realm of the dead.
He chose the wildest path.
