In a world where reality is rewritten by an unknown system, Ryo, an ordinary man, finds himself trapped in a deadly survival game that follows the rules of a novel only he has finished reading. As Hunters and Beasts roam the ruined city, slaughtering anyone in their path, Ryo must navigate alliances, betrayals, and the unseen forces controlling the game.

But when he discovers the brutal massacre of the people he once sought to protect, he realizes that the rules he thought he understood are beginning to change. With no clear enemies or allies, and a lurking presence more terrifying than the Hunters themselves, Ryo must decipher the truth before he becomes the next victim.

The only thing keeping him alive? The knowledge that he alone knows how this story ends.

The Last Reader

Lucien twisted the knife deeper, his sadistic grin never fading.

Blood dripped from Ryo's wound, staining the ground beneath him.

"You know, I don't usually take my time with people," Lucien murmured. "But you… you're special."

He leaned in, whispering in Ryo's ear.

"I wonder how much more you can take before you break."

Ryo's fingers tightened around his sword.

His vision blurred. His body screamed in pain.

Not before he found out the truth about this world.

Not before he survived the second scenario.

Lucien grinned, raising his knife for the final strike.

Before Lucien could react, Ryo grabbed his wrist.

Lucien's eyes flickered with surprise. "Huh?"

With all his strength, he wrenched the knife out of his own side.

Blood sprayed, but Ryo ignored the pain.

Lucien barely had time to react before—

Ryo's forehead slammed into his face.

He swung his sword upward, slashing across Lucien's chest.

Lucien hissed in pain, his grin finally faltering.

Ryo breathed heavily, his body trembling from blood loss.

"Not so fun when your opponent fights back, huh?" he spat.

Lucien looked down at his wound—then touched his bleeding nose.

"You…" His eyes glowed with excitement. "You're really something."

He grinned wider, despite the blood dripping from his face.

"But I wonder—how much longer can you last?"

Ryo tightened his grip on his sword.

But he sure as hell wasn't going to back down now.

Kael and Shiori rushed toward Ryo's battle.

Shiori gasped when she saw the blood covering him. "He's hurt!"

Ryo had been fighting him alone—and still standing.

Kael clenched his fists. I can't let him fight alone anymore.

Lucien saw them coming and laughed.

"Oh? More entertainment?" He licked his lips. "Good. I was getting bored."

And Ryo—despite his injuries—stood beside them.
