Leon Kaiju woke up in a dark room, this is weird...
Did he fall asleep at work again?
No..
It can't be that..
His work office doesn't have such rough pillows.
He got up and found himself on a old mini sofa, in fact he saw many mini sofas with many people waking up from their unconscious state..
He noticed his clothes changed, instead of the suit he probably passed out in he was wearing a dark blue hoodie and jeans.
Then he saw his niece.
She was wearing a knee length jeans and a strawberry printed shirt.
He now fully understood that he, along all the people stuck here were kidnapped.
He got up and ran to his niece, checking up on her.
" Hey are you okay ?
Don't worry kid I'll get you out of here. "
Once he looked closer at his niece he noticed that she was near tears.
" Uncle, I..I don't know what is going on ! "
Leon sighed and let her panic.
Everyone else in this room was panicking as well.
And he noticed that people around the globe were kidnapped.
' Heck did I just see some celebrities ?! '
He looked around the room.
A seemingly endless room with no windows, no clocks and no doors.
All he could see are the couches and a big Flat screen T.V in the middle of the room.
The T.V looked...Odd..
Leon sighed and went to his niece.
" No exit found..."
He said and his niece finally was done panicking.
" We're walled in.."
Leon nods and rubs his head.
In all situation they got themselves in this ?!
Soon though a song started to play on the screen .
It was beautiful, yet very eerie.
And then the people, all of them screamed in horror.
There was a woman with no hair, no mouth, her head was like a sphere..
Her skin was like the moon and around her was homogenous eyeballs floating around.
It was as if we were seeing those realistic angels you can find on TikTok but way more terrifying..
At least you knew the angels meant no harm.
The woman of the T.V started to talk, making everyone quiet.
" Good night.
I welcome all of you to the Wishing Star System.
I am the goddess of the Truth, Elise.
I have abandoned my poor subjects for far too long , yet you still wished on the star I sent to you.
As a reward for your loyalty I will present you with the chance to earn such wish. "
On the screen came a picture of a big shape resembling a piece of macaroni standing horizontally.
At one side there was Lobbey/ Start written on it and to the other side was written Finish.
The woman at the T.V started to speak again after somehow everyone got a look at the weird shape.
" This place has 49 floors which each of you must complete to earn your wish.
In the middle will be a portal that will transport you back to Earth.
But if you die your soul will be put to work here for all eternity. "
They didn't even get the chance to react to such news.
Before they could blink the woman was continuing to talk on the screen.
" For example I will show you all your Host, Jester !"
The woman from the T.V called for her and most of the people, including Leon and his niece looked horrified and disgusted at what they saw popping up in the room.
'Is that a corpse ?! '
The corpse was dragging itself at the middle of the room as it's eyes were close to popping out.
' What kind of death did this corpse suffer ?!'
Leon thought as it started to speak.
" Hello to you all !
I am Jester and I will be letting you know about these 49 floors !"
It raised it's hand to look cute but only looked disturbing since it's a freaking corpse.
Leon had to cover his niece's eyes for that, she got traumatised enough as is.
" Every 7 floors you will have to face a Floor Master !
This Master is of course represented by the Seven Deadly sins !
To know who you're going to deal with all you have to do is to find clues around the first 6 floors !"
The corpse said while moving it's hands.
" To clear one floor you must complete a objective in a specific amount of time but be warned !
The more times you repeat the floor, the harder it gets !"
The corpse clapped it's hand and pointed at the T.V Screen.
" To make it fair we have given you each a Special ability of your own !
Please check your phones!"
Leon looked at his phone and looked at his ability.
To see the truth for 2 minutes everyday.
Once activated it will stay active till the 2 minutes are up, you cannot pause this ability.
' What type of ability is this !?'
He thought as he realized he had his phone, he can call the cops !
'Huh ?
The phone isn't changing apps at all..'
Leon surely wasn't the only one that tried calling for outside help as s chain of panicked reactions begins to happen.
The woman at the screen was just...
Happy.
Leon could sense she was enjoying all of this, her pupils was expanding..
They were stuck with no food or water, the only hope is for them to do what the eerie woman asked.
' Goddess...
Yeah right.
That woman...is a demon.'
The woman than snapped her fingers and tilted her head.
" Oh yes...
It seems I forgot to tell you something..
You are what remains of humanity. "
" W-what...?"
Someone said and honestly so would everyone else if they had the composure to even speak.
" They are all dead.
They have refused my gracious offer and therefore must perish."
Panic, Rage..
Sadness..
A deep despair...
These were all emotions that flooded the room.
Someone, in a blind fit of rage tried breaking the T.V..
Yet...
Their hand..
It...was gone.
They screamed in horror and in pain as they started to bleed out in front of all the people in the room.
People with experience in medical care tried to get close to stop the bleeding, but Jester stopped them from getting too close.
All Leon could do was cover his niece's eyes and prevent her from looking.
It was terrible.
And when the person finally bled out the remaining people in this room could see strings, shiny yellow string that looked like the woman's hair.
The string wrapped around the corpse and puppeteered it out of the room.
Jester clapped what was remaining of her hands and joined along...
Wait..
Why am Leon thinking that Jester was acting on her own free will ??
She's dead !
He felt sick, seeing 2 corpses being forced to dance across the room.
The woman seemed entertained and proud.
How sick...
" How lovely isn't it ?
This shall be your fates if you try refuting my wishes ."
The woman spoke, as if a innocent (?) person hasn't died in front of her.
How cruel...
But it left a message.
In this place ....
Passiveness to the Goddess Elise is a must.
