Rihanel's blue eyes wavered. Janet had called him Nel, and like in the water before, it seemed this woman still thought of him as the boy with that name. But he had abandoned that name long ago. Nel Siphren died the day Janet Wilton set fire to the cathedral and abandoned him. What stood before her now was not Nel Siphren but Rihanel Reynes. Rihanel got out of the carriage with a stiff expression. Then he silently extended one hand to Janet, who was still inside. A gesture of escort. And…-

Late at night, Anaïs visited the bar on Everin Street and slowly blinked her eyes, drunk. At some point, stopping by here after work had become routine. Thanks to this, she had become acquainted with the staff and could even see a man who frequented the place buying drinks for his friends, saying he was getting married soon. Anaïs also received a drink. "Haha. Thank you. Congratulations on your marriage!" Though her pronunciation wasn't clear due to the alcohol, she genuinely wanted to…-

The white-haired old man with almost all his hair fallen out and sparse locks wandered around the bed in a robe. He looked at the bed with his hands behind his back, then approached and pressed the bedding with his hands to check how soft it was. He couldn't stay still. Then he glanced once at the tightly closed bedroom door and clicked his tongue. To him, who didn't have many days left to live, each day was precious, but he suddenly became irritated at the person making him wait like this. 'Come to…

After wandering through the harsh jungle daily and living on guard against monsters that could attack at any time, how much does a person relax when they hide in a safe place? Anaïs woke up feeling strangely well-rested and realized. Knowing it was a place no one could find, she had completely forgotten that a deadly game was in progress. Remaining pairs: 6 Sometimes, if the letters visible before her eyes hadn't been there, she would have completely forgotten and lived normally.…

Bang! When a gunshot rang out from somewhere, Roderick, who had been quietly smoking, jumped up from his seat in surprise. Another gunshot followed, and letters appeared before his eyes. Remaining pairs: 13 It didn't seem like the gunfire had occurred nearby. Roderick, who had been listening tensely, relaxed and sat back down on the windowsill. The surroundings became quiet again. Anaïs, who hadn't heard the gunshot, was still sleeping soundly. Bang! This time it…

At nineteen, Anaïs, who had to leave the facility where she had been staying, worried. How she would eat and live from now on. She had no family to visit and no money on hand.

Roderick told Anaïs they had to take turns sleeping. She was tired to death right now. Anaïs despaired at the news that she couldn't sleep straight through until morning. Whether it was due to the unfamiliar environment or the infection, her condition was worse than usual. It was obvious that if she didn't sleep properly, tomorrow would be difficult again. "Do we have to stand watch too?" "We take turns sleeping every three hours." Roderick ignored her complaining question and showed her the…

Round 2: Center Join forces with your pair and head to the citadel. Though some problems had occurred, they successfully formed a pair and a new round appeared. Accordingly, Anaïs headed toward the destination citadel with Roderick. Or rather, she assumed they probably would. Why assume? Because Roderick, who was leading the way, didn't tell her at all where the two of them were going. Anaïs thought he had shut his mouth probably because they had gotten off on the wrong foot, and she…

Whenever she had the chance to quietly gaze into a lit fireplace, there was always a memory that came to Anaïs's mind. It was a Christmas night when snow had piled up to knee height. Was she eight? Or nine? Since it was a time when the whole family was together, it must have been before she turned twelve. Father sat in his personal single-seat sofa, nodding off drowsily. It was thanks to Mother showing off her skills for the first time in a while because it was Christmas. Having eaten his fill of…

In the center of the photo the client handed over, two black-haired boys could be seen. One was short and one was taller. Were they brothers? Anaïs speculated while focusing on their postures. The taller one seemed to be in the midst of adolescence, with a very delinquent posture. He stood crookedly with his hands shoved into his small pants pockets. In contrast, the smaller boy only stood at an angle, not crookedly. He didn't put his hands in his pockets either, and unlike his provocative…
