[You have inherited The Class Huntsman Of Death.]
......
Deathborne.

A game that I couldn’t stop playing in my free time.  A game that hooked me to the core. A game that I was determined to finish and achieve the true happy ending by hook or crook.

You might be wondering why.

It's because no matter what choices I made, no matter how much I tried, it always ended with a bad ending.

An ending with the protagonist winning at the cost of innumerable sacrifices and being left alone as the last surviving human.

Would you enjoy a movie, novel, or game that ends with only the hero surviving?

Would you like such an ending?

Of course not.

Neither could I.

That's why I tried my hardest and kept trying. Alas, despite all my efforts, I have yet to reach the true happy good ending.

That's why I kept on grinding to achieve a good ending until I got that message.

[Congratulations, player Mr. Per781, for clearing all hidden conditions. You are now eligible to access the hidden route, as deemed by the game developer.] 

[Do you want to proceed?] 

[Yes] [No] 

In the next moment, I felt my soul getting dragged by and my consciousness getting detached from the main body.

Being a hardcore otaku, I knew what was going on. I almost showed a middle finger and screamed, "I will commit suicide in another world if you drag me."

Just then hand emerged from the screen and pulled me into the monitor leaving the room empty which resonated with my last words.

"FUCKING HELLLL!"

The Huntsman Of Death:A Gamer's POV As Side Character

"What?" Ashton stumbled back, startled by the accusation. "I… I don't know what you're talking about."

"You don't need to make excuses." My voice was firm yet composed, my gaze steady as I stepped closer to him. "Your face betrays you, Ashton. I can see everything you're feeling."

His eyes widened in panic. "Stop lying! You don't know anything about me!" His voice rose, cracking under the pressure.

I didn't flinch. I stood my ground, meeting his defiance with a cool, unyielding stare. "I know enough. I've seen it before. The guilt, the nightmares... they're etched into you."

Ashton's chest heaved as he tried to formulate a rebuttal, but the words wouldn't come.
