[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

The fog had crept in so slowly that no one had noticed at first. It curled around their feet like pale tendrils, damp and chilling, rising to obscure the dense forest ahead.

The air felt heavier, the faint rustle of leaves replaced by an unnatural silence. Even their footsteps seem muffled. The faint outlines of trees looked distorted, their silhouettes merging with the swirling mist, making it hard to distinguish where one began and the other ended.

"Hey, watch where you are walking."

The team fought off a bit before pausing.

"Why is there so much fog?" Gerald asked, using his large shield to wave some of it away.

The reddish fog shook a bit exposing faint outlines.

"It's strange... feels suspicious.I don't think it's natural at all," Anit agreed, his spear at the ready as his eyes darted around the shrouded surroundings.
