699 This is a slaughter game! (1/2)

”Eh?”

For an instant, Karen didn't realize what had just happened.

Or, perhaps she realized but was unwilling to accept it inside.

But no matter what, she now had to face the fact that she was currently falling down.

”Ahhhhh!!!” A scream of fear came out of Karen's mouth.

Falling down from a tall building onto the ground would definitely result in death!

Fortunately, there was a corridor in midair hanging right below this building. She crashed into it with a heavy thud. It really hurt.

The pain caused Karen to scream again. Her consciousness became hazy.

In her haziness, she saw someone running over.

”How lucky, it's a total noob.”

”And she's a noob that's almost dead.”

”I'm going to take the kill.”

A man wearing a monkey mask laughed as he sliced down with his sword.

He was pulled into this strange dream yet again.

Isamu Seima sighed helplessly when he saw this familiar place once more.

Ever since five days ago, he was being pulled into this strange place every night in his dreams.

At first, a black-clad crow-mask-wearing person told him that this was a dream, and that a game would be played within this dream.

The game's rules were quite simple. The goal was simply to continuously kill other players and be the final survivor. The final winner would be able to receive 100,000 sakuras as a cash prize in reality!

100,000 sakuras was a significant amount of money to a high schooler like Isamu. This was greatly appealing to him. However, it was an issue whether or not he would truly be able to receive the money.

This situation was far too abnormal! Just how was he and other people pulled into such a dream? Why was he chosen? Would he suffer any harm in real life? What exactly was the real purpose of this game?

The crow masked person had vanished right after explaining the basic situation to him. Isamu didn't even get the chance to ask any questions.

He then immediately met another player.

This player immediately attacked him!

Isamu tried telling him that he didn't want to fight. Isamu only wanted to talk and get a better idea of what was going on. However, the other person completely ignored him and only tried to kill Isamu!

Isamu could only run away.

Although the crow masked person said that this was only a dream, Isamu didn't want to experiment with his own life to see whether he would be able to leave if he died here. Nor did he want to kill anyone.

Of course, he had played battle royale games before as well. Still, this wasn't the type of game that he liked. He preferred singleplayer games rather than competitive multiplayer games. He was the type who didn't like to be hurt or to hurt others.

Maybe a battle-royale-game-loving person would have more fun or even be excited to join such a game in their dreams. However, this was nothing more than a bother to Isamu.

Isamu continued hiding and running away, but reached his limits. Someone shot him with a bullet in the back, causing pain to almost completely rob him of his consciousness. Since he couldn't run anymore, he started resisting, and used his starting dagger to stab the other party in the neck. Both Isamu and his attacker died!

Isamu was then revived in another corner of the battlefield.

Although he didn't die for real, the pain and fear greatly stimulated Isamu. He realized that only hiding and running would bring nothing but harm upon him.

This was a slaughter game!

Since he didn't know how to quit this game, he could only play it.

Isamu then used his long-time gaming experience and carefully considered his strategy for how to move around, kill others, and protect himself.

All the other game players he met were difficult to communicate with. Isamu began to suspect if these were even real people at all or something like NPCs. He also wondered if this was nothing more than an ongoing nightmare of his. However, this dream seemed abnormally real…

Still, Isamu didn't give up trying to talk to the other players. He finally met a person that was willing to talk to him!

After a discussion, Isamu and the other person formed a temporary team and fought as allies.

But not long after, an incredibly powerful maniacal player ambushed and killed them both. Isamu was separated from this other person afterwards and never saw him again.
