[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

Their hollow voices whispered again, overlapping and incoherent:

[If you can't take revenge for us, then accompany us, Big Brother...]

A sharp pain shot through my chest as if they were sucking the life out of me. My legs buckled, and I dropped to my knees, gasping for air. My body felt like lead, and my lungs burned with every shallow breath.

"Stop..." I groaned, clutching my ears. "Just stop!"

'Damn it! Why did Spectral Vision activate on its own?' I cursed inwardly, trying to block out the chaos.

My mind felt like it was being dragged into a bottomless pit, a hallucination spiraling out of control.

'Lukas... Focus. Don't lose yourself. Pull it together.'

I bit down hard on my tongue, the sharp pain jolting me back for a moment. Blood filled my mouth, but it dulled the other sensations. Gritting my teeth, I forced myself to focus.
