    But it is not a virtual realit.
[00:04] (Flashback) GM
    It is a planet that exists in the same
    place as Earth in a parallel wor.
[00:12] Yotsuya
    So the people in this
    world aren't virtual...
[00:15] Yotsuya
    They're Earthlings that just
    exist in a parallel reality?

    I hate people.
[01:12] Yotsuya
    I always wished they'd all just die...
[01:18] Yotsuya
    But after killing just one,
[01:21] Yotsuya
    my heart won't stop pounding.
[01:24] Yotsuya
    Like a roller coaster...
    no, maybe more like skydiving...
[01:40] Yotsuya
    There's no turning back.
[01:44] Yotsuya
    I didn't even have any intention
    of starting now...
[01:56] Yotsuya
    I'm falling.

    It's amazing enough that you don't
    have to just watch anymore.
[04:19] Hako
    I guess I've gained a little more stamina.
[04:22] Shindou
    I feel a little lighter
    than I did before, too.
[04:26] Shindou
    Maybe all that leveling up
    in the other world helped?

    Maybe.

    Man, I wish I'd felt like
    this before my tournament.
[04:37] Girl A
    Here!
[04:42] Hako
    Does Yotsuya-kun know all
    that stuff about statuses?
[04:47] Shindou

[05:38] Boy A
    Why's he so full of himself

[05:43] Shindou
    Yeah... it's gotta be hard on him.
[05:52] Boy A
    For real?
[05:53] Nomura
    Yeah, for real!

    You do not have the right to ask a ques.
[08:15] Yotsuya
    I knew it! You are the Master!
[08:18] Yotsuya
    And you're just...
    talking to me like it's normal.
[08:24] Yotsuya
    So... uh...
[08:26] Yotsuya
    I half thought of them as being included
    among the people I wished would die.
[08:35] Yotsuya
    They were...
[08:37] Yotsuya
    planning to kill some innocent religious
    people just to set an example.
[08:42] Yotsuya
    On top of that, they tricked
    us and tried to kill us.
[08:47] Yotsuya
    To me, that makes them undeniably evil.
[08:52] Yotsuya
    But... the other half is different.
[08:55] Yotsuya
    They believed what they
    were doing was right.
[09:00] Yotsuya
    So—
[09:00] Young Girl
    And?
[09:02] Yotsuya
    Huh?
[09:04] Young Girl
    Answer my question.
[09:09] Yotsuya
    I feel like killing him was a mistake.
[09:12] Yotsuya
    If I'd known the truth, I wouldn't
    have wanted to do it.
[09:15] Yotsuya
    Okay. I'm done.
[09:18] Young Girl
    That's it?
[09:21] Yotsuya
    That's it. I have nothing more to say.
[09:26] Young Girl
    I see.
[09:29] Young Girl
    Then why don't I tell you
    about the next new player?
[09:33] Yotsuya
    Really?
[09:34] Young Girl
    Just like last time,
    there's someone I want you to meet.
[09:38] Yotsuya
    Speaking of, what was up with that
    order to hit on Tokitate-san, anyway?
[09:43] Young Girl
    You do not have the right to ask a ques.
[09:46] Young Girl
    Remember what I told you then?
    It meant what it said.
[09:49] Yotsuya
    Wait, what did it say again?
[09:51] Yotsuya
    To save her from the restroom
    so I could hit on her...
[09:54] Yotsuya
    And, uh... I forget.
[09:56] Young Girl
    So, will you meet this player or not?
[10:00] Yotsuya
    Well, sure, I will.

[10:36] Young Girl
    The man sitting at the
    far end of the counter.
[10:41] Young Girl
    Until just recently, he was a drug dealer.
[10:44] Yotsuya
    Huh?!
[10:45] Young Girl
    In 20 seconds, the new player is to
    enter this restaurant and kill him.
[10:51] Young Girl
    A certain man has tricked him into
    thinking he won't be caught.

[14:56] Torii
    Oh... R-Right.
[15:02] Torii
    Where'd those guys go, anyway?
[15:07] Yotsuya
    I've cleared the quest, right?
    So I'm going home—
[15:11] Young Girl
    Let's talk for a little while.
[15:13] Yotsuya
    Huh?
[15:15] Young Girl
    You stopped a murder today.
[15:19] Young Girl
    So?
[15:21] Young Girl
    How did it feel when you killed that man?
[15:27] Yotsuya
    I don't know.
[15:30] Yotsuya
    But I think I do know
    now what I need to do.
[15:34] Yotsuya
    If those brothers get arrested, my chance of
    success in the next quest will drop, right?
[15:40] Yotsuya
    I finally remembered what you said
    to me before I saved Tokitate-san.
SIGN    Your success or failure here will influence
    your chances in the next que.
[15:50] Yotsuya
    It was Tokitate-san who ended up
    completing that last quest for us.
[15:54] Yotsuya
    That means our chances of success
    in that quest did go up
[15:58] Yotsuya
    because I succeeded in
    hitting on her, right?
[16:02] Yotsuya
    The reason she held out until the
    end, despite her personality,
[16:06] Yotsuya
    is because those naked photos
    of her didn't get out,
[16:09] Yotsuya
    meaning this world was still the
    reality she wanted to return to.
[16:13] Yotsuya
    It's all strictly mental stuff,
[16:16] Yotsuya
    but that definitely increased our
    chances of completing the quest.
[16:20] Yotsuya
    And this time...
[16:24] Yotsuya
    I created a world he'd want to return to
    because he and his brother weren't arrested.
[16:32] Yotsuya
    And that increases my chances
    in the next quest.
[16:35] Young Girl
    Is that all?
[16:36] Yotsuya
    What do you mean?
[16:38] Young Girl
    No comment on the value
    of his life or anything?
[16:43] Yotsuya
    It has no value.
[16:46] Yotsuya
    Every single person who's dumb
    enough to be tricked into killing
[16:49] Yotsuya
    deserves to die.
[16:55] Yotsuya
    The truth is that all humans ought to die,
    starting with the least valuable ones.
[17:00] Yotsuya
    That blond guy wouldn't be needed
    either, if he wasn't a player.
[17:07] Young Girl
    That's hilarious!
[17:09] Young Girl
    I heard Nakata-kun asked out a
    girl in his tennis club, too!
[17:13] Hosshi
    Another cop car?
[17:15] Shindou
    Yeah, I feel like we've
    heard a lot of them today.
[17:17] Female Student A
    I wonder if something happened.
[17:19] Female Student B
    Maybe a murder?
[17:20] Hosshi
    Whoa, scary...
[17:21] Hosshi
    Hey, Iu, what if there was
    a murder? That's scary!
[17:24] Shindou
    Murder, huh?
[17:27] Shindou
    Yeah, that has to be rough...
[17:29] Female Student A
    Rough? What the heck does that mean?
[17:32] Shindou
    Oh, sorry! Did I just say something?
[17:34] Hosshi
    Uh, are you okay?
[17:36] TV
    Today, we'll be bathing a hedgehog.
[17:38] Hako's Mom
    I'm home.
[17:39] Hako
    Welcome back.
[17:40] TV
    What we'll need is our hedgehog,
    warm water, and a soft towel.
[17:40] Hako's Mom
    Apparently a guy with a gun was
    arrested near the station.
[17:44] Hako
    Really?
[17:46] TV
    First, gently place the
    hedgehog in the warm water.
[17:48] Hako's Mom
    That doesn't scare you?
[17:49] Hako
    Sure it does.
[17:51] TV
    With its whole body submerged,
    gently wipe off the dirt.
[17:53] Hako's Mom
    Well, I'm going to start on dinner.
    Could you clean the bathtub?
[17:55] TV
    Be sure to avoid spraying it
    directly with the shower head.
[17:57] Hako
    Okay, sure.
[18:00] TV
    Finally, wrap it up in a soft
    towel and gently dry it off.
[18:02] Hako's Mom
    She once got so scared that she cried
[18:05] Hako's Mom
    just because there was a
    robber in the neighborhood...
[18:10] Yotsuya
    I saved them to increase
    Shindou-san and Hakozaki-san's
[18:13] Yotsuya
    chances of survival,
    even if only by one percent.
[18:17] Toki
    Hey! Did you forget about me?
SIGN    OK
SIGN    I didn't forget
SIGN    I remember, I remember
SIGN    Who are you?
[18:22] Maki
    Well, you haven't been
    coming around lately.
[18:24] Toki
    Yeah, well, a lot of stuff happened,
[18:28] Toki
    and I was starting to feel
    kinda mentally down...
[18:31] Toki
    Don't worry, though! I'm much better—
[18:33] Maki
    Oh, hey! There were a bunch of
    police sirens in town today...
[18:37] Toki
    Hey! I'm still talking!
[18:39] Maki
    What do you think happened?
    Pretty freaky, right?
[18:41] Maki
    Doesn't look like there's any info
    online about it yet, either.
[18:43] Toki
    I'm gonna go get a drink.
[18:45] Maki
    This is weird! Definitely weird!
[18:48] Maki
    So what I thought at that moment
[18:51] Maki
    was that there must be some
    scary secret hidden somewhere!
[18:55] Maki
    I watched this video a couple days ago,
    and I realized there was a hint hidden in it!
[18:59] Maki
    Basically, there are tiny antenna in my head,
    and when this incident happened—
[19:00] Toki
    Anyway, I wonder when we'll
    be getting the next quest...
[19:07] Young Girl
    The value of humans, huh?
[19:11] Young Girl
    And you're deciding that as if you're
[19:14] Young Girl
    some anonymous Internet user who's
    better than everyone else?
[19:18] Young Girl
    Just who do you think you are?
[19:25] Yotsuya
    I'm no one. Just some kid.
[19:30] Yotsuya
    Just a dumb kid with delusions of grandeur.
[19:33] Yotsuya
    And I'm fully aware that I'm wrong.
[19:39] Yotsuya
    I admit it.
[19:41] Yotsuya
    I know that, honestly.
[19:45] Yotsuya
    But... How do I put it?
    The realization hasn't set in.
[19:50] Yotsuya
    Only I am right, and the rest
    of the world is wrong.
[19:54] Yotsuya
    That's how I feel.
[19:56] Yotsuya
    Of course, I know in my head that that's
    just proof of my delusions of grandeur.
[20:02] Yotsuya
    But...
[20:05] Yotsuya
    If that's true, then so what, right?
