A crossover anime, where people are in Classroom of the Imaginary Era, and behind the scenes, the ki

"If you really don't want to believe this is true, there's nothing I can do to force you."

"But in the days to come, there are a few bottom lines for survival that you must remember! You must keep them firmly in mind!"

Yosuke Hirata held up three fingers, his expression stern:

"First of all, absolutely do not have any intention of communicating with anyone outside the school or revealing the existence of the Black Ball! Not even a hint! The school's network is monitored around the clock. Once you violate the rules, the life points that the Black Ball gave you as a life-saving trump card will be directly deducted!"

"Secondly, although the school now has a 'preliminary test' as a buffer, and there are no assessments every day, you still have a very small chance of being randomly selected by the black ball, or being dragged into the examination room full of monsters because of failing the exam!"

"If you unfortunately end up in the exam room without any preparation... for your safety, absolutely do not run around! Find a secluded corner to hide in and wait for the main students taking the exam to rescue you."

"Finally..." Hirata Yosuke's voice softened a bit, "Once everyone has calmed down, girls please register with Karuizawa-san, and boys please come to me to register your special skills. We need to pool all our resources to prepare for the Black Ball exam that may break out at any time."

Upon hearing this, many newcomers still couldn't accept the premise and, with tears in their eyes, pressed Hirata Yosuke for answers:

"Class President Hirata! Is there really no way to escape this school?!"

"I don't want any guaranteed admission spot anymore! I want to drop out! Let me go home!"

"I'd rather go back to a life of poverty than die!"

Hirata Yosuke remained silent for a moment.

It offered a hope that wasn't exactly hopeful:

"The regular withdrawal application has expired."

"But Black Ball said that one hundred S points can create miracles and resurrect a person."

"Perhaps... if you can gather these 100 points as a price, the Black Ball can 'redeem' you and let you return to the lives of ordinary people."

"One hundred points..."

The boy who asked the question clutched his head in despair and let out a wail:

"One hundred points... How many points do you think you get for killing a monster?! Even if you kill me, I still won't have enough points for one hundred!"

Regarding the newcomer's breakdown.

The classroom was unusually quiet.

No one in the class made fun of it.

There is no sense of superiority that veteran players feel when facing newbies.

Having personally experienced the test on the deserted island, they knew all too well.

One hundred points? Are you kidding me!

That's an astronomical number that would take stepping over the corpses of countless parasitic beasts, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and even top-tier cursed spirits to accumulate.

Even if you were to risk your life, you still wouldn't feel like you have enough time.

Too extravagant.

However, Hirata Yosuke's comforting words, when they reached Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, who was sitting in the corner by the window, had a good practical application.

'Freedom in exchange for 100 points...'

Ayanokouji rested her chin on her hand, her eyes flickering slightly.

Based on his observations of the black ball system, while GANTZ had a wicked sense of humor, it didn't really need to deceive them in terms of the rules.

It says that once the anomalies in this area are cleared up, then the clearing up is truly complete.

If it's truly possible to sever all ties with the black ball and return to a normal life by paying a perfect score, then this trade... isn't actually that expensive.

But the only thing he wasn't sure about was...

Would a black ball be willing to easily let go of a high-quality sample that performs well in this confined "experimental field"?

'Since that's the case... I'll find an opportunity later to test this line myself.'

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji made this decision in his heart.

Just then, a vibration suddenly came from the all-purpose capsule he had placed in his uniform pocket.

That was the voice of the parasite contained within the capsule, linked to his mind:

"Ayanokoji, do you want to leave here?"

"If you leave... what will I do?"

Ling Xiaolu remained unfazed and replied via the mental link:

"Let's see if we can take you with us."

"After all, based on the price, you're only worth 1000 item points, which translates to just 2 S-points. You're a very cheap consumable. If I spend a few more points as the price for 'buying' you, I don't think GANTZ will make things too difficult for such a small matter."

The parasite seemed to think for two seconds inside the capsule:

"That makes sense. From the perspective of equivalent value exchange, this is feasible."

"Then... should I go with you then? Leave this place that provides plenty of food and combat data?"

Ayanokouji did not reject this symbiotic relationship:

"If possible, having another convenient tool wouldn't be a bad thing for me."
