E-Book Bonus Newly Written Short Story
"The Three Major Stories: Sephirot's Tree/TRPG/Map"


Since we are students at a school where we study a wide range of entertainment-related subjects, we are willing to try anything related to so-called “fun,” whether we like it or not.

So, when Saikawa, looking strangely excited, invited us to join a TRPG, we accepted without any particular resistance. 

"Well, I'll be the game master, and you all will be players!"

The map was unfolded, the dice were prepared, and the living room of the share house was instantly transformed into a stage for adventure. 

"This is my first time playing it, how do I create a character?"

Naturally, Nanako looked confused.

"Ah, I do it regularly so I can teach you. First, let's start with the ability values."

Let Nanako roll the dice and write down the STR and other values. 

"Minori-chan, what kind of job do we have here?"

"Anything is fine, since this rule is not limited to fantasy. But it would be nice if Aki-san dressed as a White Mage...... No, no, I can't give up on the Bard either."

The conversation had changed a bit, but in any case, it seemed that the job had been decided without any problems.

"Saikawa, have you been playing TRPG before?"

"Yes, because that's part of my club in high school."

I agree. In high school, anime, games, computers, and art-related clubs almost always play TRPGs. Board games too. 

"In the past, my seniors taught me how to write replay novels, and I used to read those a lot, too. But the one that had the greatest influence on me was “E”."

"Wait, wait a second, wait a second."

That is something you shouldn't say.

"But now my hobby has shifted to cosplay, so I've given all the goods I had back then to my friends and juniors."

"Eh, but you still have all the dice and stuff."

Today's tools were all prepared by Saikawa.

"No, it's natural for an otaku to have these things."

I guess I'm an otaku myself, but Saikawa seemed quite exceptional.

"There was also a special bed sheet. It was a red cloth with a large Sephiroth tree painted on it, and it was quite something."

"That's pretty good......"

I've only seen that in the opening of Air. (Note: Maybe anime Air)

Once again, I was surprised at how much of an otaku Saikawa is.
