Sourcebook
Intro
Nightmare Archive had already been in progress for a long time.
There were those who died within the ghost stories and those who survived.
Of the 497 original players, only 35 remained.
Jin Yeowun and Seol Yuna were among those survivors.
The players were surviving in their own ways, preparing for the next story.
And today, the veteran players all received the same notification at once.
【All players must assemble in the Central Hall】
It was the first time this had ever happened.
Confused players began to gather in the Central Hall one by one.
Jin Yeowun felt a sense of foreboding.
Nightmare Archive was not a place that moved without reason.
Something was happening.
And there, on the red stairs where no one had been a moment ago, Noir stood with a nonchalant smile.
Noir looked at a window in the air.
【Number of Players: 35】 【Survivors: 35】
Hmm.
He smiled, resting his chin on his hand.
This batch has lasted quite a long time.
An ominous silence flowed among the veteran players.
Then, the numbers in the air began to flicker.
【Number of Players: 35】 ↓ 【Number of Players: 335】
Space throughout the hall began to tear, and hundreds of black fissures appeared.
People came pouring out along with screams.
Noir watched the scene with interest.
New players.
He bowed politely.
Welcome. I am Noir, the host of this place. I look forward to working with you.
Noir began to slowly descend the stairs.
You were all likely living your ordinary lives until just a moment ago.
He looked at the faces of the terrified people as if inspecting them one by one.
But not anymore.
Noir's smile deepened.
From today, you are players of the Nightmare Archive.
A massive blue window rose into the air.
【Number of Players: 335】 【Survivors: 335】
There is no need to distinguish between veterans and newcomers. After all, everyone is the same when they die.
The hall fell silent at those words.
Ah. Do not worry.
He raised a finger.
It's not as if this Noir will be sad just because you die. Isn't that fair?
Several people spat out curses.
And one more thing.
The window in the air changed.
【Dying here means dying in reality】
Noir slowly scanned the frozen expressions of the crowd.
This Noir is cheering for you.
Noir covered his mouth as if stifling a laugh.
Of course, I'm not cheering for you to survive.
Noir clapped his hands lightly.
Good. That should be enough of an explanation. Shall we go meet our ghost story?
The moment you blinked, the surrounding scenery had completely changed.
At the end of a subway platform with no exit and no station name, entities that looked like humans stood in a line.
【Platform 404 Usage Rules】 1. You must board the train when it arrives. 2. There are currently 336 beings on the platform. 3. There are 335 players.
