Transferring to a new school is hard enough, but Nobuaki Kanazawa has no interest in making friends. His antisocial attitude makes sense when his class gets a text from someone calling themselves "The King." The message explains the rules of the "King's Game"-a twisted challenge where every student must follow the King's orders within 24 hours. Refusing to play, giving up, or failing to obey results in a fatal punishment. Nobuaki has seen this game before. He knows how it ends-with people dying around him. Despite his warnings, his classmates dismiss him as paranoid… until the first deaths prove him right. Trapped in a nightmare with no way out, Nobuaki faces a grim decision: save himself at the cost of others, or try to protect his classmates-something he couldn’t do last time.
