I've played Dam Zero numerous times.
I know where to hide people, where to refresh supplies, and which road is best for evacuation with my eyes closed.
So when I opened my eyes and saw the familiar dam in the distance, I thought I had at least one advantage -
I know the plot.
Until I really stepped into this world.
There are real people living behind the doors that cannot be opened in the game.
Bodies that won't spawn begin to rot.
There are many buildings on familiar roads.
People who should be alive die prematurely.
And a man who shouldn't be here at all according to the timeline walked up to me amidst the sound of gunfire.
Elie de Monbert.
Code name - nameless.
I recognized him.
But they can only pretend to be meeting for the first time.
Because at this time, it is still several months away from the "Children of the Night" in my memory.
"Name."
He asked me, standing in the shadows.
I gave a name.
"Where did they come from?"
I continued to lie.
After listening quietly, he suddenly raised his eyes.
"Then why did you call me Eli just now?"
At that moment, I finally realized.
Maybe it was never my memory that was wrong.
But this world.
Later, I watched with my own eyes as the familiar plot deviated from the original track little by little, and I also watched the person who was supposed to walk into the Tower of Babel alone appear next to me again and again.
Until one day, a memory that didn't exist appeared in his brain.
The woman in the picture is covered in blood.
Has the same face as me.
And she said to him——
"Ellie, don't wait for me this time."
But I'm convinced.
This is my first time meeting him.
At least——
In my memory it is.
