    Chapter Index

    “Excuse me, Lo, brother-in-law, are you looking for traces left by Little Moon?”

    A magnetic, flirty female voice rang out from the other side of the hallway.

    The couple followed the sound.

    The red silhouette was slender and graceful, she stood elegantly with a smile on her face, a prop card cupped in her hand.

    “The prop card [Scene Cleanup] removes traces of that ‘corpse’ after inflicting a hit.”

    “That means you can’t have an ad hoc meeting until you have a fixed meeting.”

    “So now let’s figure out how long we have until the regular eight o’clock meeting?”

    “Oh, it’s a full hour yet.”

    Splat–

    Isha took a step, her heels touching the ground lightly with a crisp clatter.

    But how it sounded was like death rubbing the ground with a scythe.

    “It just so happens that I still have three hit prop cards in my hand. Your family of three …… dragons has a share.”

    The fact that the lone wolf blew herself up meant that she would surely knife all the remaining players before the fixed meeting started.

    An hour is …… enough time.

    Leon’s eyes locked on Isha while slowly backing away, quietly taking hold of Losvesser’s hand.

    “Are you going to follow your brother-in-law, Lo? Then I’ll tell you one more thing, so don’t be intimidated.”

    “Actually…my brother-in-law is the second lone wolf.”

    Losweather frowned slightly, “How do you know?”

    “[Intelligence card], the only one, the one that almost everyone found at the very beginning.”

    “But ‘only’ is a vague pointer, and didn’t we rule it out a long time ago ……”

    “No, no, no, Lo, ‘only’, ONLY, try recombining those four letters and see what it becomes.”

    “only…. .o,n,l,y……”

    “ly…on, Leon ……”

    The Red Dragon Queen smiled in satisfaction, “That’s right. In fact, the answer was right in front of us from the start, it just escaped my resourceful brother-in-law.”

    “But if it’s extrapolated from the player’s name, wouldn’t that be too involved off-site?”

    “I guess that’s one of the interesting things about this game. It only gives us the [identities] of the characters in the story, like the princess, the doctor, the old friends, but it doesn’t give the characters names. So the player’s own name is a part of the game.”

    Loseweather pursed her lips as she thought back, “So sis you were piecing together this clue by writing and drawing on a piece of paper in your second session.”

    “Hmm. And I haven’t been actively targeting Leon, just to see the spectacle of your couple teaming up.”

    A hint of victor’s condescension flashed in the crimson dragon’s pupils as Isha continued.

    “It’s a bit of a shame though, you guys don’t seem to be able to keep me entertained yet.”

    “Then let this game end quickly. When I’ve finished with you now, I’ll go
