Fifty Seventh Burn

At the Momobami estate the following morning, the atmosphere at breakfast was tense, weighed down by the events of the previous night. Ririka and Kirari exchanged concerned glances as they noticed Y/N's demeanor. Her usually warm eyes were now cold and distant, her usual lively presence replaced by an unsettling silence.

As they sat down to eat, Y/N's gaze remained fixed on her plate, her mind clearly elsewhere. The usual banter and laughter that filled the room during breakfast were conspicuously absent, replaced by a heavy silence that hung over the table like a dark cloud.

"Y/N, dear, are you feeling alright?" Ririka asked gently, reaching out to place a reassuring hand on Y/N's arm.

Y/N looked up briefly, offering a weak smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. "I'm fine, Riri," she replied, her voice lacking its usual warmth.

When Kirari suggested their plans for the day, Y/N's response was unexpected. With a steely resolve in her voice, she announced that she would be gambling later. Kirari, taken aback by the sudden declaration, couldn't hide her surprise.

"Gambling?" Kirari echoed, furrowing her brow in confusion. "But Y/N, you've always been against it."

Y/N's expression hardened, her jaw set in determination. "I know, but things have changed," she said cryptically, pushing her chair back and standing up from the table. "Excuse me, I have things to attend to."

Kirari exchanged a worried glance with Ririka as Y/N left the room, her departure leaving behind an uneasy silence. Something was definitely amiss, and Kirari couldn't shake the feeling that they were only just scratching the surface of whatever was troubling Y/N.

As Y/N left the table, Ririka leaned in, playfully elbowing Kirari with a mischievous grin. "Looks like someone's a little scared of her darling buin," she teased in a hushed tone, hoping to lighten the somber mood that had settled over them.

Kirari chuckled softly, though there was a hint of concern in her eyes. "Can you blame me?" she replied, her voice barely above a whisper. "She's always been unpredictable, but lately, she's been... different."

Ririka nodded in understanding, her expression mirroring Kirari's concern. "I've noticed it too," she admitted, her playful demeanor fading into one of genuine worry. "I just hope she's okay. She's been through so much already."

Kirari reached out, gently squeezing Ririka's hand in silent reassurance. "We'll keep an eye on her," she promised, her gaze lingering on the doorway through which Y/N had disappeared. "Whatever she's going through, she doesn't have to face it alone."

——-

As Y/N waited for her opponent in the haunting game, she couldn't help but notice a handsome young man approaching her. Horo Jomaru, with his tan skin and swept-back black hair, exuded an air of confidence as he flirtatiously engaged Y/N in conversation.

"Ah, what a lovely sight to behold," Horo said with a charming grin, his dark eyes twinkling mischievously. "A rose among thorns, if I may say so myself."

Y/N couldn't suppress a roll of her eyes at his theatricality, unimpressed by his attempts at flattery. "Save your poetry for someone who's available," she retorted, her tone sharp and dismissive.

Undeterred, Horo continued to flirt shamelessly, his words dripping with exaggerated charm. "Ah, but my dear, you wound me with your indifference. Surely a beauty like you deserves to be admired."

Y/N sighed inwardly, growing increasingly annoyed by Horo's persistent advances. She focused her attention on the game ahead, eager to distract herself from his unwelcome attention.

As Y/N waited for her opponent in the haunting game, she reviewed the rules in her mind, steeling herself for the challenge ahead. Runa Yomozuki, with her usual whimsical flair, began to explain the intricacies of the game to the assembled players.

"In the haunting game," Runa began, her voice carrying over the hushed murmurs of the crowd, "each player selects a combination of two dice, which becomes theirs for the duration of the game."

Y/N listened intently as Runa continued to elucidate the rules, her mind racing to grasp the complexities of the game. She knew that understanding the rules would be crucial to her success, and she paid close attention as Runa outlined the gameplay.

"Players take turns rolling two dice in clockwise order," Runa continued, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "If a player rolls a combination that no one selected, the game continues. But if they roll a combination that someone has already chosen, the player with that combination is 'killed' and is out of the game."

Y/N nodded, committing the rules to memory as she prepared herself for the challenge ahead. She knew that the haunting game was as much about strategy as it was about luck, and she resolved to play her hand wisely.

As the game began, the tension in the room soared, each roll of the dice sending a ripple of anticipation through the crowd. Y/N's heart pounded in her chest as she waited for her turn, her mind racing with possibilities.

When her moment finally arrived, she picked her combination with careful deliberation, her eyes scanning the faces of her opponents for any sign of weakness. With a steady hand, she rolled the dice, her heart skipping a beat as they tumbled across the table.

As the dice came to a stop, Y/N held her breath, her gaze fixed on the numbers that stared back at her. And when she saw that she had avoided the dreaded combination, a surge of relief washed over her, fueling her determination to emerge victorious.

The game continued to unfold with each passing round, the tension mounting with each roll of the dice. But Y/N remained focused and composed, her resolve unshakeable as she navigated the treacherous waters of the haunting game.

And when the final dice fell, it was not just a victory for Y/N, but a testament to her skill, cunning, and unwavering determination in the face of adversity.

As Ririka and Kirari observed Y/N's participation in the haunting game, they couldn't help but notice the subtle transformation taking place before their eyes. Y/N, usually reserved and cautious, now exuded a newfound sense of determination and confidence that caught both of them off guard. Her eyes, once filled with uncertainty, now sparkled with an unwavering resolve as she navigated the complexities of the game.

The haunting game itself was a spectacle to behold, its rules shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Runa Yomozuki, with her usual flair for the dramatic, served as the dealer, orchestrating the proceedings with a mischievous twinkle in her eye. The game began with a sense of anticipation hanging in the air, each participant eagerly selecting their combination of two dice, hoping for a stroke of luck in the impending rounds.

The rules were explained with meticulous detail, each nuance adding to the suspense of the game. Players took turns rolling two dice in clockwise order, the tension mounting with each roll as they vied for dominance over their opponents. If a player rolled a combination that no one had selected, the game continued, but if they happened upon a combination already claimed by another player, the consequences were dire—the unfortunate victim was "killed" and eliminated from the game.

As the rounds progressed, the stakes grew higher, and the atmosphere became increasingly charged with anticipation. Ririka and Kirari watched intently from the sidelines, their concern mingling with a sense of awe at Y/N's newfound determination. It was evident that something had shifted within her, a transformation fueled by a desire to prove herself in the face of adversity.

Once the game concluded and the victor was declared, Ririka and Kirari made their way back to the student council room, their thoughts consumed by the events they had witnessed. As they walked, Ririka couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered in the air, a silent reminder of the dangers that lurked beneath the surface.

"Did you let Y/N know about your plans?" Ririka asked quietly, her voice laced with concern.

Kirari shook her head, her expression grave. "No, I haven't. It's too dangerous to involve her any further."

Ririka nodded in understanding, though the worry etched into her features remained. She knew that Kirari's plans were risky, and she feared the consequences if they were to go awry. But she also trusted in her twin's judgment, knowing that Kirari always had a plan, even in the face of uncertainty.
