The Group embarked on their journey. While traveling, Lumine asked Raft something, “Hey Raft, I already scanned and recorded the details of everyone… except for Nikko.” “That’s great! May I take a look?” Raft asked. Lumine opened her journal and showed it at Raft. Raft complimented Lumine after skimming the contents of the journal. “You’re very good at recording players’ information!” “Well, thank you!” “But…” Raft mumbled. “I think you forgot to record your details. I didn’t see yours there.” Lumine realized it too. “Gosh, you’re right! “That’s very dumb of me!” Lumine said. “I’ll just record it later once we settle in the Forest.” “Sure!” Raft replied. “And please just save those details. I’ll use it for later references.” Lumine nodded. Later on, Raft walked close to Mika and talked to her. “Uhm, Mika… about the Anahata… do you already know how to use the full extent of its power? Or are there still other effects or skills besides the one you said? It’s my first time to se

  “One wrong move and I’ll slice your throat!” a mysterious man threatened as he stuck his dagger to Marco’s neck.   Marco tried to have a glance at the man behind him.   “Don’t move!” the man ordered. He tightens his grip on Marco.   Marco nervously followed the order. “Who… who are you?” he asked with a faint voice.   “You will know later. But now, just listen to what I say and you will not get hurt,” the man said.   “O…okay,” Marco replied with a tensed voice while nodding his head.   “Now move your legs and be a good boy,” the man commanded. “We will be going somewhere.”   With a knife touching his neck, Marco walked slowly while being guided by the mysterious man on his back.   “Slowly now,” the man whispered.   Meanwhile, near the pond in the forest,   “Who…

  BANG!   “NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!” Mika yelled.   ... … … …   “Eh?” Bingo uttered.   “No, please, no! Please don’t shoot me!” Arii pleaded. Surprisingly she was still alive after Bingo pulled the trigger of his pistol.   “What… what happened?” Lumine wondered.   “AAHH! DARN IT!” Bingo screamed. “It’s just the Impact Bullet this time!”   Arii is still shivering on the ground - frightened by the sound of the last pistol shot.   Bingo paused and sighed. “You’re a lucky girl! But don’t worry, this next bullet will surely kill you now,” he said as he aimed his pistol at Arii again.   Arii covered her body with her arms.   “No! Please! Stop it already! Let her go!” Rigor screamed.   “SHUT THE F*CK UP!” Bingo shouted back. He aimed

 Bingo moved closer to Mika’s group. Tension and fear filled the aura of Mika and her friends. “But… before we start, I need you to form a horizontal line in front of me,” Bingo instructed. Mika and her friends hesitated at first. “Come on, do you want me to end this, or nah?” Bingo asked. Without a choice, Mika and her friends formed a line in front of Bingo. In Bingo’s point of view, the order from right to left is as follows: Mario, Lumine, Virgo, Rigor, Raft, Mika, Frenz, and then Marco. “Good-goooood!” Bingo expressed. “Now, let me explain the game we’re going to play. The group nervously listened. Bingo starts explaining. “You see this gun?” he asked while showing his special pistol. Then, he pointed his pistol upward and pulled the trigger 7

  “Well… Even if I say that the phone landed face-up and Mika will take a bullet, the other two remaining turns will still be a 50-50, so…. she’ll do a dare!”   Mika took a glance at Mario and whispered, “Thank you!”   Mario smiled and nodded at Mika. Then, he took a peek at the smartphone on his lap again - which legitimately landed with the screen facing upwards. Mario quickly grabbed the phone and gave it back to Bingo so Bingo won’t find out the true result.   Bingo checked the Age in his UI. “7 hours, 43 minutes. I think you already know when to come back,” he said.   Mika nodded. She immediately stood up.   “Mika, will you be okay?” Lumine asks out of concern.   Mika responded with a nod.   “But… your wound,” Lumine pointed out.   “I’ll be fine. The pain is not that bad anymore. Better than getting
