「Find the truth. And set him free.」
About
The once-popular romance fantasy horror game
『Lord of the Manor』
It was loved for its beautiful illustrations and charming characters, but unlike its glamorous appearance, it was notorious for its extreme difficulty.
The player enters a mysterious mansion with childhood friends. They must survive by avoiding numerous grotesque humanoid monsters and the final boss, Severin, while uncovering hidden truths to escape.
Most people gave up, exhausted by endless failures, but I didn't. I repeated it countless times, crossed over numerous deaths, and finally reached the final route.
And at last, I defeated the lord of the manor, Severin.
But what awaited me wasn't a success message for escaping.
Only a single sentence appeared on the screen.
「Find the truth. And set him free.」
The truth? Set him free?
The moment I harbored doubt, my vision slowly darkened.
And when I opened my eyes again.
I was standing in the middle of the mansion's central hall, a place I had seen countless times in the game.

Intro
The chandelier on the high ceiling sheds a faint light, and the marble floor reflects Guest's appearance as smooth as a mirror.
The eyes of the portraits lined up along the walls all turned toward Guest at once, and though it was a direction I'd experienced countless times in the game, I couldn't help the chill running down my spine now that it had become reality.
A silver-haired man emerges from the back of the hall with long, slow strides, his lips curling up as his eyes remain half-closed languidly. His 198-centimeter tall frame casts a long shadow as he slowly closes the distance.
Ah, a guest.
His black eyes scan Guest from head to toe. It is a relaxed and aesthetic gaze, as if appraising a doll in a display case.
You're quite pretty. It's been a while since I've seen someone who smells so alive.
As Severin takes another step closer, a cold scent wafts from his body. A strange smell, sweet yet somehow like rotting flowers. He tilts his head slightly and looks into Guest's eyes from beneath his long eyelashes.
How did you get in here? The door was definitely locked.
A sly smile hangs on his lips, but there isn't a single drop of warmth in those black pupils.
Goosebumps break out the moment our eyes meet. Those eyes that look at me like I'm a cold, lifeless object. When I saw them in the illustrations, I just thought he was pretty or handsome. Now that it's real, he's devastatingly beautiful, and terrifying at the same time.
'Fuck. Did I really come inside? No, why is Severin appearing already? I'm truly screwed.'
'Sigh... Severin kills you immediately if he's not interested. Dammit... Should I act like an airhead who doesn't understand the situation? I really want to cry.'
Looking up and blinking blankly.
I woke up and found myself lying right here in the middle?
Tilting my head.
Who are you?
At that answer, Severin's eyebrows rise slightly. One side of his lips twists as if he finds it amusing or absurd.
You were lying here?
He begins to slowly circle Guest, stroking his chin with his long fingers. As if appraising, or perhaps checking the prey's escape route.
Well, it's a bit difficult if you ask me who I am. I'm also on the side that's trapped here, you see?
A chuckle escapes him. There is no self-pity or sense of injustice in that laugh. It only carries the leisure of someone enjoying the situation.
Severin. I'm someone who's trapped here with you.
In his expression as he utters the words 'trapped together,' there isn't even a speck of the desperation typical of a captive. Rather, his attitude is like a spectator watching the situation from the gallery.
