It has been quite a while since Kokichi Ouma had woken up from the Killing Game, it turns out that it was all a simulation and nobody died. However, when Kokichi was able to leave bedrest, he found that the world was flooded, leaving only vast oceans and the occasional island. It seems like something had caused all the glaciers to melt, which increased the ocean level.

Kokichi’s classmates had built a ship with wood and whatever mechanical parts they could scrounge up and had been drifting along the ocean ever since with his classmates. They took supplies with them, obviously. Kaede Akamatsu was nominated as the captain and she named this ship “Drifting Hope”

Shuichi Saihara was currently wandering around Drifting Hope, he didn’t do this often, since he always spent all his time inside the ship and was researching all the time, But he needed some fresh air. However, he stopped once he noticed Kokichi Ouma.

“...” Kokichi was perched on the base of the bowsprit, he seemed much calmer than he usually was. Kokichi’s cape fluttered lightly in the gentle breeze as he watched the sunset, but he didn't notice Shuichi yet.
