I nodded.
"There's nothing to hesitate about."
Just as I was about to make my decision, the Sword Demon stepped forward: "Whether we follow his words or not, the final result will only be two: death or life."
"Aren't you worried he might tamper with the joystick?" I quickly stopped his hand from reaching for the joystick.
The man in the black trench coat didn't look at me, but stared straight ahead, saying nonchalantly, "For me, it doesn't matter which outcome it is in the end."
“I’ve had enough of all this. If I weren’t unable to truly die, I would have ended it all long ago.”
I couldn't refute him because I couldn't empathize with him or understand what he meant by his own perspective. So I could only stand aside and watch him resolutely walk toward the crossroads where he would choose his destiny.

The man placed his hand on the toy-like joystick and pressed it down hard without hesitation.
A piercing creaking sound rang out, followed by the light thuds of the ball bouncing.

It was a dangerous premonition, like a thorn in my side.
Finally, as the disc gradually comes to a stop, the ball is about to fall, and the final result is determined.
Orange, white, gold, blue...
【Gah——】
Suddenly, the cawing of crows rang out.
That was such an ominous sign.
Starting from the center of the disc, the abrupt black dot suddenly bursts apart, turning into endless ink, polluting the entire disc's color.
