How could the protagonist possibly die... It was fake... This had to be fake!
Although Lingmeng wanted to say that, she immediately realized something else.
This world was not the anime world she remembered.
If Shido had followed the original plot, perhaps he really would not have died.
But there was one enormous difference between this world and the original Date A Live.
