Locked down. Isolated. Hunted. Such is the predicament in which Souta Narumi-Piggy-finds himself as the Holy Empire's bold attack on Japanese soil rages on. In this so-called "game of death," the unwitting guests at a swanky clan gala must rush to escape a Tokyo skyscraper before explosive magic goes off and reduces it to rubble at precisely eight o'clock. This won't be an easy task, however, as swarms of sadistic, battle-hardened Holy Empire fighters await them at every turn. And with the building magically sealed off, there's no help on the horizon. But, as luck would have it, Piggy applies his trusty insider knowledge of DEC in a bid to get to the bottom of what's really going on here, and just maybe put a stop to it. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and he is forced to form unlikely alliances. . . as well as lose a lot of weight. And with an ingenious way of bypassing the lockdown, perhaps Kano will be able to call in the cavalry after all. . .
