The windows are barred.

The doors are chained with massive, broad chains that could restrain a giant.

It doesn’t matter which dormitory of the academy he checks; it doesn’t matter if he goes to the dean’s office, the classrooms, the bathrooms, or even any of the hundreds of corridors in between.

The entire academy has been turned into a prison overnight.

It was a normal day like any other, barring the evacuations in the days prior given the presence of the Demon King. But not everyone was evacuated. Evacuation implies there is a place to go after fleeing, and for many of them, there is no place to go. The Triumvirate Academy is a boarding school mixed in with an orphanage at the same time. They all live here, sleep here, eat here, and grow up here from adolescence until adulthood. There’s nowhere for them to go and, so, rather than letting them run off into the wilds where they might have a chance of escaping, the dean of the school simply locked all of them, who had no other family or money, inside, saying that the academy was perfectly safe to weather the storm in.

Of course, he said this as his servants carried away his bags to his carriage before he locked the doors and then rode up north to the capital.

It was fine at first, if not a little haunting. The students who remained banded together and made do. It’s not like they turned into violent animals overnight. They continued to make their beds, they organized cooking and cleaning duties that were rigorously followed, and they studied, though not as much as they should, in all honesty. They were surviving pretty well, all things considered.

Then, a few days ago, somebody pinned notes around the school—fliers—that advised them to prepare for the games to come.

Every class assumed it was a student group from another class trying to organize something to lift everyone’s spirits.

They were mistaken.

Erschein quietly closes the door to classroom three behind himself, standing out in the hall as the other doors open too, once the other games come to an end. He is the only one who made it out of five today. Three days ago, his class had forty people. Everyone he’s gotten to know for the last few years since they moved into the advanced classes—his friends, the cute girl he had a crush on—they’re dead.

They lost the game.

He looks to the side, staring at classroom one, from which three people come out. This morning, nine went in. His gaze turns toward classroom two’s door, which quietly opens, revealing a single, small girl stepping outside and then vomiting. He recognizes her as the quiet girl from their class. The typical short-haired bookworm type. He waits for more to come out after her. Classroom two still had ten people this morning.

Nobody else comes out.

Finally, classroom four.

Six people went in this morning.

Nobody comes out.

The woman, the creature, the monster—she plays games with everyone. Every game has a different set of rules and conditions each day.
