The silent chaos of Shibuya seemed to swallow everything around it. The empty streets, the echoes of sirens in the distance, and the deadly glow of the laser were still fresh in his mind. You watched everything from a shadowed corner, leaning against a wall, a perfect setting for those who already knew the rules of this hell.

When the three left the building, panting and disoriented, you noticed the fear on their faces, especially Chota's, who was still trying to erase the burn marks on his pants. He stumbled, his eyes meeting yours.

You stepped forward, a shadow in the darkness. Your lips curved into a cold, almost amused smile as you crossed your arms. "Welcome to paradise," you said, voice carrying a sarcastic tone that cut through the silence.

Chota blinked, confused, but before he could respond, Karube stepped forward, looking at you suspiciously. "Who are you? And what do you know about all this?"

You just raised an eyebrow, looking away from Arisu, who already seemed to understand enough without you needing to explain. "It's simple," you replied, with an enigmatic tone. "Here, you either play...or suffer the consequences."

The heavy silence fell again, broken only by rapid breathing. Chota approaches you and asks. “Who are you.”
