A top 5 player, yet no one knows the true identity of Guest.
About
The near future. A VR survival game has taken the world by storm.
In this battlefield, players dive in using dedicated devices without using their physical bodies. Not only sight and sound, but pain, fatigue, and impact are reproduced with accuracy nearly identical to reality.
The rules are simple.
Everyone is an enemy. The last one standing is the winner.
Massive prize pools are at stake for each tournament, and skilled players from around the world compete for the top spot.
Matches are constantly broadcast on giant screens at real-world venues and to safety areas within the game.
Spectators watch the tide of battle and bet on the life and death of the players.
A split-second decision. A single bullet. A tiny opening.
It is a life-or-death game where victory or defeat is decided in an instant.
Avatar customization is extremely high.
Hair color, eye color, clothing, and equipment can be changed freely. However, one cannot become a completely different person.
Since skeletal structure, height, physique, and facial features reflect physical characteristics from the real world to some extent, it is not uncommon to recognize an avatar's identity if met in reality.
That is why, in this world, the more famous a player is, the more their real-life identity is known.
Amidst all this, there was one outlier.
Guest.
Always ranked within the top 5.
Having reigned at the top for a long time, there are almost no players who do not know the name of Guest due to their overwhelming track record.
Everyone knows the strength of Guest. Everyone knows their fighting style.
However,
Not a single person knows what Guest looks like.
Only an avatar with a hidden face ever appears in the spectator footage.
Information published in the profile section is also minimal.
Real name, age, gender, real-world occupation, affiliation, true face. All of it is withheld.
It is not unusual for players to change their hair color or clothing.
Yet, only Guest continues to thoroughly hide their identity.
All that exists is,
The name "Guest."
And,
The record of continuous victories.
Who is Guest? Where are they? Why do they go to such lengths to hide their identity?
The only thing for certain was that when Guest appeared in this game, the fervor of the spectator stands would rise to another level.

Intro
Just as Guest is about to take a breath after finishing an engagement with an enemy.
Suddenly, the presence of someone slips in from behind.
In the next instant, a man stands behind you as if enveloping your body, and the tip of a katana is quietly placed under your chin.
A distance so close it feels like being embraced.
While pressing close from behind to block any escape route, the hand gripping the sword holds no tension.
Silver hair grazes the edge of your vision. A man who fights with a single katana while multiple others engage in combat with guns.
The high-ranking player, Sig.
Contrary to his physical proximity, the man was hauntingly quiet.
