☆ WELCOME TO HELL, YE POOR SOULS.

Graveyard

The last thing you remember is dying. Whether it's by murder or execution, that's was all it. But surprisingly enough, you wake up in the hotel room that you were assigned in, as if you had never died to begin with. However, once you walk right outside, you'll start noticing that while this is the Town A you remember, there are some slight differences that you notice.

The first thing is the fact that while you can see those who are still alive, they simply cannot see you. In fact, they pass through you, as if you were a ghost. And spoilers: you kind of are one, now. The second thing is that sometimes, if you look at a building for too long or too closely, you'll notice that it fizzles a bit, almost glitchy.

But that's completely fine, isn't it? There is, however, one more thing to keep in mind: there are voices of other people, mumuring. Of course, these other people, unlike you, don't have a complete shape; they're just a silhouette of themselves, looking like static.

However: it wouldn't be Town A without an announcement, would it? Of course not. Hence why upon rearriving, there will be a message, typed out:

Welcome to the afterlife, everyone. This is a greeting message to introduce you to how exactly this works. You have the ability to send one message to the living a week, so choose your words wisely. Of course, there are limitations to what you can say! You cannot reveal the mastermind's true identity, even if you know it. You cannot reveal a culprit or a victim, even if you know it.

Also, all messages will be sent to all players during the trials. If there is no trial, the message shall be sent on Saturday. You may investigate as you wish. If you have any questions to ask of me, please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Just as long as it's not while I'm busy.

[At that, Eruna frowns now, finally looking a little more serious.]

... Speaking of which, what is this all about then? 'Cause I... I don't want to think that you're really that cold or enjoy all of us killing each other like the way you sound as M-chan.

[crossingout]

Oh, you really think so? I'm glad! Well, being M on the network was to get people off my back since I was also at the meeting. So then I could raise the question as to how I managed to be in two places at once.

I thought a cruel mastermind would fit everyone's image, so that's the character I played. My job right now is to save everyone. By the way, Fav can hear me but he can't hear any of you guys. Not that it matters, since that thing already knows my intentions.

He doesn't care, though.

[ladiesfirst]

... How are you going to save everyone, if you're having Fav deal out those motives to get us to kill each other?

[Like really, what kind of sense does that make??]

[crossingout]

He's the one who's pushing all of those motives on his own and blaming me for it! I have nothing to do with it.

[ladiesfirst]

Really? But I thought M--you said that you were his master?

[crossingout]

It's a technical term. Fav's the one who's really in charge and handles everything. I'm more of an overseer.

[ladiesfirst]

... My head hurts.

[Maybe Eruna should just sit down and be quiet so that Zange can explain everything without being interrupted with a round of 20 questions.]

[crossingout]

I'll explain once we're inside and you can have a seat on Hinata-kun's bed.

[Well, she's opening the room now. Hinata better not be in here.]

[ladiesfirst]

[Even if he was, that's not gonna stop Eruna from sitting on his bed anyway and make herself at home to listen to what Zange has to say.

(Sorry Hinata)]

I'll try to make this as short as possible so you can understand it. Over a thousand years ago, I was brought into another dimension by a magical girl named Cerise. She brought several others, along with me. Twenty-nine others, in fact.

We all played this exact game. But it was different back them. None of these trials and such. It was just an outright slaughter. Everyone I knew died around me, even though I didn't touch a soul. I was the sole survivor.

But because I survived and Cerise didn't, I was linked to Fav. And Fav told me this: that if I didn't craft another game, my world would be destroyed. I accepted the offer. However, even though I said this, I didn't just simply accept it out of selfless reasons such as 'protecting my world', things like that. I'm a selfish goddess. One who doesn't want to disappear or be forgotten.

That's why... everyone was chosen based on their popularity. So that I could usurp that popularity and take it as mine. Because that's how my power grows. I get power through being more popular than everyone else. After all this is being broadcast.

[ladiesfirst]

[... Holy shit Zange]

Seriously? So then... wait, who is this being broadcast to?

[crossingout]

That's why there's a TV station. As to who... the people Snow White works for. And many, many people in other worlds.
