[bunniefuu]

Crap

If Sui hadn't been dragging her feet,

this guy wouldn't be on my a*s.

Do you understand, Sui?

If we don't get those rings,

it's game over for both of us.

Hey, brat!

There's something I wanna ask you!

I won't k*ll you if you come out!

Dammit! I'll take out this

machine g*n moron before the A-ranker.

It's getting dark out.

EPISODE 06

HARDNESS

If I don't resolve this soon, I'll be in big trouble.

Hey, brat!

There's something I wanna ask you!

I won't k*ll you if you come out!

Quit wasting my time here!

Like I can trust him

I'll get rid of him first.

SUI, MAKE THE PIPES AROUND THAT GUY BURST!

THEN I'LL FREEZE HIM!

SOTA, WE CAN'T k*ll ANYONE.

Sota, we can't k*ll anyone.

Let's just get away!

Idiot!

If we give up on those six rings Shuka has,

we'll probably croak!

BUT

OKAY

Where did that brat run to?

She didn't seem the type

who could have an A-ranker on the ropes,

but if possible, I wanna capture her alive

and pump her for info.

Long-range type Sigils are a pain in the a*s,

but with this speed and accuracy,

I don't have too much to fear.

No way! He knows where we are?!

You don't have a chance in hell!

So just surrender already!

No, he's just firing wildly.

He doesn't know we're here.

Sui! Spray water around him again!

I'll get him this time!

I can't.

There aren't any pipes near him at the moment.

Besides, I can't move the water that fast,

so he would just dodge it again!

Dummy! Don't give up!

Dammit! Wherever there's a lot of water,

Sui and I make an unbeatable combo!

All we need is an underground stream

Wait, I've got it.

We can definitely beat this guy!

That kid looked so scared,

I thought she'd give up right away.

So, how am I gonna flush her out?

A phone's ringing?

Is it a trap? Or a careless mistake?

Hey! Come out already!

Quit wasting my time!

If she's here, I bet she's cowering

either in the john or the back?

Which would be a pain

with her water manipulation power, but

Is it the brat's phone?

Then where is she?

Nobody would abandon their phone in D-Game.

She's gotta be nearby.

Now!

What?!

You were careless, big guy.

It's not like we can only control fresh water.

Sorry, but I'm gonna finish you off.

sh*t I can't move

I just don't want any more interference

from you. Forgive me!

Don't stop me, Sui!

We need those six rings to survive!

We can't let this guy get in our way!

W-What the?

No!

I can't do it, Sota!

If it means k*lling someone,

I don't want to survive!

Is this ice?

I was wondering why the water

was so cold in the summer.

It's really thick,

and it goes all the way to the ceiling.

Is she sealed inside?

Shuka!

Shuka!

If you're all right, answer me!

Dammit! Break for me!

Shuka! Where are you?!

Answer me! Shuka!

That's right. If I look for her rings

My phone should be waterproof,

so you'd better work!

There!

Damn, that hurts!

Found her!

Shuka!

Hey, Shuka! Wake up!

She's not breathing!

Wait!

It's faint, but she still has a pulse.

She's still alive!

I can't carry an unconscious Shuka

through that little hole.

But I don't have time to widen it.

On top of that, this water is so cold

that I won't be able to move much longer either!

Dammit, Shuka!

Please, wake up! Shuka!

No good?! What should I do?

CPR?

I learned it in driver's ed,

but I've never actually done it.

This is no time to hesitate!

Shuka!

Please! Wake up!

Shuka! Shuka!

Shuka!

Huh? Kaname?

Shuka

Thank goodness! I'm so glad!

Hey Were you kissing me?

D-Dope! It was CPR!

You weren't breathing!

So warm

At first I thought maybe we'd both died

and gone to heaven.

I got close a few times.

But like you, I managed to pull through.

Kaname

Now that's a proper first kiss.

Thank you for saving me.

So now what do we do?

O-Oh, uh, of course, we get outta here.

Then we'll hurry back to base.

Base?

We've got more allies now.

People we can depend on.

Allies? Besides me?

That's not nice. When did that happen?

Kidding.

Forming a clan was the idea, right?

Hey, Kaname

You asked this morning at the park, remember?

Why I'm doing Darwin's Game

If you don't wanna talk about it, that's okay.

No, I want you to know.

I want revenge.

Revenge?

Against the man who m*rder*d my parents.

Darwin's Game?

It was stupid that the password

was his daughter's birthday.

Talk about no sense of security.

That's why I decided

to track down and k*ll that man.

Plus anyone who gets in the way.

And finally, whoever created this game.

All of them.

That's why I play this game.

I see.

Do you hate me now?

No, to be honest, I feel the same.

I agree with that last part.

I'd like to put a b*llet in this game's creator.

Whether I'd k*ll them or not

I see.

Then I'll let you do that one.

Thanks.

All right, let's get the hell out of here.

Can you use your Sigil?

I don't have much strength,

but my Sigil should still work.

But I lost my weapons along the way

No problem there.

We're gonna survive.

Hey, Shinji!

Bring the grenades over! The whole box!

Y-Yes! Right away!

All right, now pass 'em out.

Three per person.

They're easy to use.

You just pull out the pin like this, and throw it.

D-Don't! You already crippled me

when you shot me in the leg!

Five seconds later, it goes boom.

It's your own fault for having rings!

Better crawl away now!

Those idiots are wasting weapons again.

But now we know that we can

use the shop even during an event.

You're a genius, Wang. You have my respect.

By the way, what are you doin' there?

Kei, how do you think this event is won?

Well, the winner is whichever clan

gathers the most rings, no?

Yeah, this would be a piece of cake

if the other players were as smart as you.

Seriously?! Nobody's ever called me smart before!

You're very smart, Kei.

It stopped?

NEW INFORMATION

IT'S TIME FOR THE SECOND RING DISTRIBUTION.

START LOOKING!

Well, then

Okay, we've got 30 more reinforcements,

so it's about time to get to work.

This is the end.

We'll demolish that hotel with a bang.

NEW INFORMATION

IT'S TIME FOR THE SECOND RING DISTRIBUTION.

START LOOKING!

ROGER. PLEASE PROCEED.

WE SUCCEEDED IN RESCUING SHUKA.

WE'RE HEADING YOUR WAY.

A DIAMOND RING SPAWNED

IT'S TOO DANGEROUS HERE

IF YOU HAVE AN EMERALD RING,

CHECK THE QR CODE ON I

THERE'S A CODE

What are we gonna do, Kaname?

THANKS. WE'LL CONTACT YOU

AFTER GETTING THE DIAMOND

Do? About what?

And? I understand your story,

but do you think an apology

is enough for me let it go?

N-No, what I did to you was awful,

but I wanted to apologize first of all

Beyond that, I've decided to give up on fighting.

I don't want to live so badly

that I would k*ll someone for it.

Is that so? Then die.

And normally I would

have k*lled you on the spot.

But I'll forgive you this time.

In fact, I'm actually grateful to you.

Trapping me behind that ice was just the thing

to bring Kaname and I closer together.

O-Oh, um Well

Looks like the confrontation ended amicably,

but I'm surprised you're going out

with a scary girl like that.

N-No, it's not like we're going out.

We just met two days ago.

Kaname, what are we going to do now?

I'd like to change out of these wet clothes.

True, all three of us are drenched.

I-I'm sorry! That's my fault!

U-Um, if you don't mind,

I can use my Sigil to dry them.

Your Sigil's so convenient!

I kind of like it!

R-Really?

It is impressive.

You could use your Sigil to wring

all the moisture from your enemies' bodies.

I could never do something so terrifying!

Besides, I can't move water around that quickly.

Sota is better at using his Sigil

than I am with mine.

Sota?

Oh, Sota's the twin brother I mentioned before.

Oh, so that's what you call it.

H-He's not imaginary!

Sota is really inside of me!

He died in an accident, but his spirit came back,

just like I wished for in D-Game!

Just like you wished for in D-Game?

What does that mean?

E-Everyone at school says it.

That in D-Game,

you'll get the Sigil you wished for!

That's a new one to me.

B-But it really happened

I've decided.

You're interesting, so join our clan.

That's okay with you, isn't it, Kaname?

Is that what we were talking about?

Well, it's fine with me.

U-Um, I appreciate your kindness,

but I'm really not cut out for fighting.

Then it's settled.

Nobody says you have to fight.

Um, then what should I do?

Cleaning and laundry and stuff.

I'm pretty good at that, I guess

You're just gonna let that go?

It's fine. We did intend

to form a real clan eventually anyway.

Well, it doesn't matter to me who you recruit.

As long as I get to snuff Wang

of the Eighth Clan in this event, I'm good.

I don't know the details, but I get

that you've got a grudge for this Wang guy.

Just don't forget.

We didn't form this coalition to m*rder Wang.

We did it to survive this game.

I guess we have a difference of opinion then.

Well, for now, I'll do what you say.

I owe you that much.

They started without us.

Can't see from here though

I guess when the diamond ring appeared,

everyone on break got back into it all at once.

Should I take the rings and run decoy?

The idea is to hole up in the hotel, right?

No, you're not at full strength yet.

Besides, that hotel's about to be a b*ttlefield,

with the diamond ring as the spoils.

And then there's the code that Rein found.

If my hunch is right

There it is! Rein's reply!

Kaname?

Shuka, toss all the rings you've got.

We're done with them.

We're gonna obtain the true treasure

and end this friggin' event!

What does Kaname say?

Apparently we're ditching the rings

in a bid to clear the game.

I'm going to move on that.

It's a bold decision, as expected from Kaname.

What will you do, Mr. Hiiragi?

Even if all five of us were here,

would we stand a chance against their numbers?

Hey, attack squad, you ready?!

Let's burst through their barricade!

Just from here, I see almost 20 of them.

No matter how you look at it,

we're outnumbered.

You should go.

Give Kaname my apology

for not helping in the end.

Then you mean to stay?

My daughter has a bad heart,

so I need a lot of money.

Rather than an obscure "clearing" of the game,

I want the rings, which are certainly worth points.

I was even lucky enough to get the diamond ring.

Come to think of it,

my daughter's twelve now.

She's about as big as you.

I'm thirteen.

Oh, pardon me.

My daughter is certainly

much less mature than you

Mr. Hiiragi, if I were in your daughter's shoes,

and I found out my father died in a strange place,

and that I'd never see him again,

that would be sadder than any disease I had.

That's it from me. Good luck.

I'm aware

But the only thing I can offer is my own life.

We're through!

Attack squad, advance!

The hotel squatters aren't retaliating.

They probably laid traps and hid.

I'll go take a peek.

Hey, Sig. You're in charge of the front.

I won't let you down.

Like we figured,

they planted expl*sives here and there.

Then all we gotta do is set 'em off from here.

Yeah, let's mow right through this joint.

We can buy all the grenades we need.

Still, what's with these plants?

It's frickin' creepy.

Probably the Sigil of one of the squatters.

Actually, I've heard rumors

about a guy who controls plants.

I think he goes by the "Florist."

What do we do, Sig?

To go upstairs, we either gotta

take an elevator or emergency stairs.

If we were gonna be cautious,

we'd take the stairs,

but if our opponent controls plants,

that's a different story.

The perfect match for my Sigil!

Doesn't look like a trap.

In that case, I'll do recon.

Sig, shouldn't we send some people with you?

Nah, no need.

I'll call you guys up once I'm sure it's safe.

Guess I'll try the top floor

Here we go. Definitely has plant control.

But then this

is a walk in the park!

Bonus stage in the bag!

Hey, where's the welcome party?

How anticlimactic.

My guess was right.

All the rings are on the top floor.

Scattered all over the floor.

But only traps and no ambush?

Don't tell me they dumped all 20 rings and fled?

TAKE THE SAME ELEVATOR UP, YOU GUYS.

I TOOK OUT THE PLANT MASTER'S TRAPS.

All right! I knew we could count on Sig!

Good, I didn't wanna have

to walk up 40 flights of stairs.

We can't all fit in one elevator at the same time.

We'll take two trips.

The enemy hasn't

rolled out the red carpet for us yet,

but they likely won't be as shy upstairs!

So keep your eyes peeled!

Apologies for not greeting you earlier.

I welcome you, my Eighth friends.

Move back!

He doesn't have any ranged weapons!

Where is your boss, Wang?

Even scum like you

isn't enough to take me down.

Who are you talkin' about?

Don't underestimate the Eighth.

We're both dead!

You'll learn to fear us!

What's taking those guys so long?

Here we go, finally

Hey, took you–

Your friends aren't coming.

I won't let you have a single ring.

I'll k*ll you!

Looks like I safely slipped past Eighth's siege.

TIME REMAINING

CURRENTLY 98 PLAYERS SEARCHING FOR TREASURE.

There were 300 players when this event started.

It's as if the objective was to cull the herd.

To begin with,

this is the game's first major event.

By using teleportation to dispose of corpses

and mind control through cell phones,

it became a foregone conclusion that this event,

which occupies an entire town, would come to light.

I figured the D-Game admin was trying

to avoid intervention by the authorities,

but has their objective changed?

Or has it become less necessary to hide?

Well, just thinking about it

won't give me any answers.

Right now, I have to focus on

the problem at hand.

I identified all of the numbers

hidden on the rings.

The question is, what do they mean?

Even after ranking them by point value,

the meaning of the numbers isn't clear.

I thought maybe they could be ranked

by the value of the corresponding gem,

but determining the value of the gems

by type and weight alone is no simple matter.

Then what could be some objective standard

I could use to rank the gems?

Hardness!

Arranging them by hardness is the right answer!

The hint was ruby and sapphire

having the same number.

Both of them have a Mohs hardness of 9.

They're the same mineral,

both being crystalline forms of aluminum oxide.

If I arrange the numbers

according to their Mohs hardness,

the display of coordinates becomes clear.

And the location of these coordinates

is the center of this event, Shibuya Station.

The true treasure

must be hidden somewhere in the station!
