"Good evening, audience friends."
"For the next seventy-two hours, I will perform for you—"
"How to destroy a city in the most elegant way."
A natural disaster struck the country, and Tokyo was chosen as the first sacrifice.
When the world was in panic, the army was in defeat, and mythical creatures were eating humans on the streets of Ginza - what China sent was a boy wearing a school uniform, carrying a schoolbag, and humming off-key songs.
His name is Wood Crow.
A lunatic selected by the [Crazy Artist System].
His mission has never been to save.
But "complete a sufficiently gorgeous sacrifice."
…
"Destruction is not the goal, aesthetics is."
"I want Tokyo to smile brighter when it collapses than when it was alive."
So the world saw in the live broadcast:
He played Russian roulette on top of the burning Tokyo Tower and used empty guns to scare off the Eight-Power Allied Forces;
He arranged a bloody tea party in the ruins of the Yasukuni Shrine and "consulted" with the UN envoy on how to destroy civilization;
He waltzed on the magma of Mount Fuji, composing a funeral march for Yamata no Orochi with every step.
…
When the seventy-two-hour countdown reached zero, Wood Crow stood on the top of the Skytree, facing the burning city, smiling and bowing.
In his hand is the red button that detonates the entire Kanto region.
"The last scene."
"No rescue, no miracle."
"Only what I give to the abyss——"
He pressed the button, and thousands of buildings behind him turned into pillars of light in the roar, like a grand fireworks.
"——Graduation work."
Before the white light engulfed everything, he turned to the camera and whispered:
"Don't worry."
"Next city, soon."
