I'm Standing on a Million Lives (100万の命の上に俺は立っている)

I prefer to be alone.

I really did hate that city.

The truth is, I hate everyone living in that city.

Even when my life's in danger,

This place is a million times

more exciting than that shithole Tokyo.

I can't handle first period PE.

Oh yeah, for real.

Did you catch Miko Live yesterday?

I tried, but I fell asleep.

Really? I kinda thought it was all right.

-Yuta Nomura. -Here.

Kusue Hakozaki.

Oh, right. She's sick again.

So she's out for the day.

Kusue sure is absent a lot.

This is the third time in two weeks.

She's got some condition that tires her out.

You both hear the latest?

Shinnomiya got asked out by that boy Nakata in class one.

-Really? -That's crazy.

What an asshole.

If you haven't turned in your future plans form,

you have until tomorrow.

-I found this online. -Whoa, that's Yu Shindou!

So I guess it's true she was scouted to do some modeling

for Petite Lemon.

She's cute, she gets good grades.

-She's like, perfect. -Yeah.

FAMILIARMART

All right, everything's still good.

Yeah, streaming outdoors is always weird.

You never know who might be watching.

-Yes! -

Yeah!

Oh man, that was really a close one.

ON DUTY YOTSUYA YUUSUKE

Yotsuya.

Hi. How are you?

Nice photo.

I'M SO HAPPY I MADE A WEIRD FACE!

PETIT MODEL

She's definitely impressive.

Wow, the complete package.

We live in such different worlds.

I'm probably invisible to her.

-Today's the day, huh? -Yeah.

To tell the truth, I'm kind of nervous.

I know just what you mean.

Doesn't Kusue always skip PE?

Since when did those two hang out together?

What in the world was that about?

Mr. Yotsuya.

You're the only one who hasn't turned in his future plans...

...form yet.

You're a fast runner.

If you had joined the track team,

you could have gotten into an athletic high school.

Yeah. Huh?

Why are they just hanging around?

They must have friends who are waiting for them somewhere.

Isn't there anything you really want to do?

I want to get home and play more of that video game.

I've been thinking about it, but nothing really comes to mind.

I don't care about this stupid school.

I'm guessing that's not close to what you really want to say, is it?

You won't make it through high school...

...if you don't have some friends you can really talk to.

What? He sees right through me. I'm impressed.

Yeah, you may be right, sir.

I'll find an academic high school in the area that I can list as my first pick.

Just make sure you get it in by tomorrow.

-Yes, sir. -

I've got to get home to my game.

Hey guys, I'll lock the place up. I'm on duty, so...

Where the... When did they leave?

Huh?

What the hell is this?!

What... What just happened?

Where the hell am I?!

Shit, I'm out of here!

Hey, Yuusuke!

Huh? Excuse me?

Terrific! We finally have a guy.

Iu.

You?

And... uh...

I'm Kusue.

What the hell's going on?

Am I dreaming all of this? What's happening?

Okay, so a weirdo with only half a face...

...is about to show up here.

Don't panic, just listen to him.

Who?

Nice to meet you, Yotsuya.

Greetings to you two.

Call me Game Master, if you please.

Glad to make your acquaintance.

This is a nightmare! What happened to your head?

-Please listen for the rules explanation. -Huh?

Pay close attention as these instructions will apply...

...to the new member of the...

You will all three be doing these actions together.

-What? Hang on a minute. -Yusuke, just listen.

Your quest is as follows.

You must fulfill the village chief's request...

...within the 14-day time limit.

I haven't agreed to do any of this stuff!

I told you to just listen, didn't I?

A warning to you and yours.

The monsters in this world will be ready and eager...

...to kill all of--

Whoa, wait a sec! What?

Aren't you hearing me?

This is nuts!

Ow!

That was weird. That didn't even hurt.

QUEST WALKTHROUGH CHART There are eight steps left...

...until the quest is comp--

Upon completing each step, one new member will join your party...

...until you reach the last step, which you must complete...

...with 10 members.

What do you mean, complete what steps?

Ask your two companions about the rewards you earn...

...after each step is complete.

Also known as the Wizard of the Wind.

That brings us to our third player.

What occupation shall we give him, hmm?

OCCUPATION ROULETTE Is this a TV show?

Oh, please, be a warrior!

What? Are the results that important?

FARMER A farmer!

Huh?

Goodbye for now, until we meet again.

YOTSUYA YUUSUKE FARMER - RANK 1

-That means I have to be... -A farmer?

Well, I guess it was too much to hope for.

Hey! Will someone explain to me what's going on here?!

HOE FARMER LV.1 -50%

So, tell me...

...were you two brought here without warning as well?

Just me at first.

I managed to complete the first quest...

...and was able to return to our world,

At which point the Game Master instructed me that I had...

...to do another quest.

You're still getting quests even after completing your assignments?

It wasn't too long after that that Iu sought me out.

-Kusue! -Huh?

Tell me something. Will you be my friend?

Excuse me?

Your friend?

The Game Master specifically instructed me

to become friends with Kusue.

And then the next time I came to this world,
