Here it was, the morning of the 4th day. [Name] couldn't get any sleep so they already felt terrible from the start. The person yawned, opening a lollipop and putting it in their mouth before double checking how they looked in the mirror. They looked fine, surprisingly not tired even after doing 4 attractions with Shin.

[Name] walked into the lobby, looking at the group.

"The loner's a loner, but still stubborn, woof! What a world, meow!... But [Name]-"

"Morning, am I late?" [Name] walked over to the group, cutting Gin off with a soft smile.

"Everyone...!!" Sara smiled widely as most of the group looked in her direction. [Name] just expectantly glanced in the opposite way, knowing Ranger would appear in a few seconds.

"Huh, didn't count on this... Y'all bastards are cockroach-level stubborn!" Ranger walked in, his steps heavy as he exclaimed as everyone turned their attention to him.

"Don't make light of us!! We're MORE stubborn than roaches!!" Alice chuckled as Ranger changed his card to an annoyed one.

"Yeah, yeah. Guess I underestimated that. Honestly, figured at least one of y'all'd die. Well, whatever. There's a place I wantcha all to come to." Ranger shrugged as everyone fell into an awful silence.

"What?! Don't tell me... The Main Game already?!" Q-taro yelled as [Name] shook their head slowly, sighing.

"Not just yet... Gotta save the most fun for last... C'mon, just look behind ya!" Ranger pointed behind the group as a door appeared from thin air.

'...Will this play out the same way? I only gave coins to Gin so we should've switched places, that's it...'

"Great design, right? I want you to go through there. Scratch that - you ARE gonna come through if you don't wanna get killed!" Ranger smirked as [Name] opened their mouth to speak. "You too. Don't you dare try dying now."

"Oh Come on- I wasn't even gonna say anything about that!" [Name] frowned, to which Ranger rolled his eyes.

"Just go through the door" Ranger said as everyone slowly started walking in. Eventually they all gathered in the blank room.

"The game ended, wha-"

"The Sub-Game's not over yet." Ranger cut Reko off before switching his card to a smile. "Let's announce the results! Y'all haven't forgotten this was a game of buying and selling tokens, right?"

"I see..." Shin muttered, red flags immediately being set off in his mind.

"The number of tokens we've gotten by trading...?" Keiji asked, a feeling of unease filling him slowly.

"Specifically, we're counting up the totals of other people's tokens you've touched at least once. That means even tokens you lost after getting 'em count toward the total." Ranger explained as [Name] nodded along, listening.

"So we don't have to have them currently?" Alice asked, still slightly confused.

"That's right! I told you this game switched out "trust" for "tokens," yeah? The amount you were handed... That's what matters. So naturally, however many of your own tokens you got, they wooon't be counted! Now to announce the standings! Line up! The superb person who earned the most trust will be awarded a special privilege!" Ranger explained while Q-taro sweat dropped.

"Privilege...?" He echoed, slightly terrified. This couldn't possibly be good..

"Let's get to it! The glorious title of first place goes to...!" Ranger begun.
