Everything started that night when I discovered a terrifying truth about Duke Augustus. Despite his warm and kind appearance, Duke Augustus is a murderer who values no one's life.
My name is Fabian, a middle-class and relatively wealthy person. I was at a big party, feeling a bit unwell from the crowd, so I went to a quiet room to rest.
I was a bit drunk and dizzy, struggling to walk to the nearest room and barely standing on my feet as I opened the door.
That's when I encountered the most horrifying scene of my life. The room was filled with corpses, drenched in blood. I was confused and don't remember much.
A man was sitting at the piano, with an open window behind him, his face hidden in the shadows, holding a glass of wine and looking at me with a creepy grin.
The man in the shadows laughed and said, "Look here, a new victim has come on their own."
Suddenly, I came to my senses, shocked by all the blood, and felt like I was going to be sick. I quickly turned back to open the door and escape.
At that moment, the man in the shadows said angrily, "I didn't give you permission to leave the game!"
The man used a strange force to emit a large wave, and the door slammed shut.
Fabian, surprised and scared, said, "What?! I don't want to stay here!"
Fabian grabbed the door handle to open it, but the door wouldn't budge. Fabian held the door handles tightly with his hands and struggled, but the door wouldn't open.
The man in the shadows slowly approached Fabian. Fabian heard the man's footsteps, and as he sat in front of the door, he turned towards the man and leaned against the door in fear.
Fabian, trembling with fear, reached out with wide eyes and begged the man, "Please don't kill me, please let me live!"
The man sat in front of Fabian with a sneer and said, "It seems you prefer more pain over death."
Fabian, surprised, said, "More pain..."
The man smiled proudly and said,
"You seem entertaining. I'll keep you alive until I get bored of you."
Fabian was extremely numb, his vision blurred from confusion, and his eyes felt heavy.
Fabian thought, "I can't stay awake any longer, is this my end?"
Fabian slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The man smiled and said, "Oh dear, we were just getting to the exciting part."
My name is Fabian, I'm 23 years old, a man from a middle-class family, and I had been invited to a big party.
From what happened in that room that night, it was clear that someone had poisoned my drink to kill me.
I was definitely supposed to be killed in the middle of that big party, but what happened that night changed my life forever.
Fabian woke up, feeling a bit drowsy. He yawned and said, "Where am I?"
Fabian was in a room, seeing that he
was lying on a bed. From the appearance of the room, it was clear it was a noble house, but it was dilapidated and untidy.
The walls and windows were covered in dust, and the wooden floors were worn, making the house look eerie and like a haunted house.
Fabian held his head and said, "I don't remember what happened to me last night at all."
Fabian got up from the bed and went out of the room, heading towards the hallway, holding onto the railing as he went downstairs. The stairs led to a large hall.
All the furniture in the house was old and worn out.
Fabian thought, "I feel like I'm trapped in a strange dream, but I just woke up."
The house was completely empty, not even a single servant was inside. This made it even scarier.
Fabian first tried to leave the house. He went to the main door to open it, but all the doors and windows of the house were locked.
Fabian took a breath and said, "I don't understand, if no one is here, why are all the doors and windows locked?"
Fabian went to check the different rooms, hoping to find a key. He entered a room that looked like an office, with bookshelves full of various books and a desk covered in dusty books and papers.
Fabian said, "This must have been a very important room." Fabian went towards the desk to inspect it, opening the drawers to find something.
Suddenly, Fabian felt the presence of a man behind him, gripping his shoulders tightly.
The man, with a terrifying face and a chilling voice, said, "How dare you steal from me after what happened last night?"
Fabian, shocked, felt his heart skip a beat and shouted, "Please forgive me, I didn't know this was your house!" The man released Fabian and stood
beside him. Fabian turned towards him and looked up to see who he was. Fabian, surprised, said, "Duke
Augustus?!"
Augustus smiled and said, "Interesting, so you knew who I am."
Fabian replied, "Of course, you are so famous that no one doesn't know you."
Augustus grabbed Fabian's shoulder with his hand and said, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
Fabian thought for a moment and said, "Why should I be afraid?"
Augustus leaned closer and
whispered in Fabian's ear, "You discovered my secret last night, and I brought you here to make you suffer!"
Fabian's eyes widened in shock, and trembling, he said, "What do you mean?! What happened between us last night?!"
Augustus stepped away from Fabian and stood by the window, pulling a knife from his pants pocket with a sneer, "Poor victim, you're just an unlucky person who got caught by me!"
Suddenly, Fabian shouted, "You're crazy!"
Fabian quickly ran towards the door to escape, but Augustus pointed at the door, and it slammed shut.
Fabian exclaimed, "Are you kidding me?! What kind of nightmare am I trapped in?!"
Fabian looked behind him, and Augustus was slowly approaching. Fabian, terrified, shouted, "Please let
me live, I'll do anything you want!"
Augustus grinned as he slowly
approached Fabian.
Augustus stood in front of Fabian and said, "No matter how much you beg, it won't help. I want to make you suffer as much as I want!"
Fabian, numb with fear, looked at Augustus and quietly said, "If this is a nightmare, kill me sooner, I won't resist."
Suddenly, Augustus stabbed the knife right next to Fabian's ear into the wall. Fabian came to his senses and said,
"Mr. Augustus, please let me go!" Augustus sat in front of Fabian,
smiling, and slowly unbuttoned his shirt collar.
Fabian said, "Mr. Augustus?"
Augustus grabbed Fabian's mouth with his hand and said, "Shush, be quiet and let me make you suffer." Suddenly, Fabian bit Augustus's hand.
Augustus's face twisted in pain. Fabian looked at Augustus and said,
"Sorry, I didn't mean to—"
Suddenly, Augustus grabbed Fabian's collar and said with a smile, "You're too wild for a victim."
Fabian struggled to say, "Please... let go... of my collar..."
Suddenly, Augustus released Fabian and, shocked, said, "Hugo..."
Fabian woke up, suddenly shouting, "I don't want to die!"
He was panting and saw Augustus sitting on the bed opposite him. Augustus smiled and said, "Don't
worry, I don't want to kill you."
Fabian, surprised, said, "You really
don't want to?"
Suddenly, Augustus's face turned
serious, and he said, "But your life depends on one condition."
Fabian: "What condition?"
Augustus: "You have to play a role for me."
