Flag Game Chapter 2

**Chapter 1** (第一章) is the second chapter of the Darwin's Game ~Flag Game~ novel.

## Summary

On the roof of the building, Rein spent one point to search the area, with the app telling her that there were no enemy players within a 500 meter radius. She wiped the rain off of her sniper rifle and put it away, noting that she needed to overhaul it when she returned home. Checking that her Skorpion vz. 61 was in her coat, she hurried down the emergency staircase on the outside of the building.

Down below, Rein met up with Shuka, who was standing in the rain at the spot she killed the enemy player, and pointed out that Shuka had killed too many people as they had decided on letting some of them escape. In response, Shuka told her that the man who Rein shot was enough, and upon learning that there weren't any enemies around, she stated that she'd go home. As Shuka left into the sky, Rein noted that she was strong because humans weren't used to tracking fast upward movements with their eyes. Once the alarm for the end of the game sounded, Rein sighed, feeling like she'd been sighing a lot more ever since she'd been partnered with Shuka.

On her way back to the Sunset Ravens base, Rein recalled why she was partnered with Shuka. To improve coordination within their clan, they had experimented with shuffling individual roles around. She then began thinking about herself, about how her job as an information broker allowed her to survive, and how she still kept her information network up using the clan's abundant money. Upon reaching a hill, she noticed the people hypnotized by the Darwin's Game app returning to what they were originally doing. She knew that the people who were hypnotized had no memories while they were under its effects, and even didn't realize that they'd been hypnotized at all. At that point, she felt her phone vibrate, and saw that Kotori was calling her.

Rein headed to the location specified, which was a fast food restaurant near Shibuya station. Kotori energetically called her over to her table, causing Rein to complain, as a Darwin's Game player announcing their presence was only a risk, though Kotori simply told her that there weren't any players that would risk picking a fight with the Sunset Ravens. Seeing that Kotori was acting the same as usual, Rein pretended to leave so that she'd get to the point. Kotori told her that she thought she'd gained information on someone Rein had asked her to look into a long time ago, asking for half of the reward until she was able to confirm it, however Rein agreed to give her the full amount for the information.

Flag Game Chapter 12

The twelfth chapter of the Darwin's Game ~Flag Game~ novel.

## Summary

In a Flag Game, players vied for control of an area by placing and then defending their flag from other clans. If a clan already controlled an area, other clans would attempt to destroy it and place their own. In order to have a better chance of keeping their territory, clans made sure to place their flag in an easily defendable position. The reason the Sunset Ravens hadn't taken control of the southeastern Shibuya area was because they hadn't found a suitable building to place their flag in, though recently Ryuuji had managed to obtain a small building with an underground floor, and construction to fortify said building had finally finished a day before the next Flag Game.

At the Twin Head Shark clan building, Ryuuji and Kaname were finishing negotiations for a one month long non aggression pact with the clan leader Wadatsumi. Both sides agreed to the pact and set the penalty for breaking the agreement at 200 points. After they sealed the deal, Wadatsumi offered to treat them to a drink to celebrate their alliance, though the Ravens refused since they needed to prepare for the Flag Game the next day.

On their way out of the building, Ryuuji thought about how the Darwin's Game didn't necessarily advocate killing, as there was even a sentence in the FAQ that stated that the staff didn't recommend murder. A player could run until time ran out, or they could surrender; however, being able to take the other player's points if you killed them and fear of retaliation turned it into a death game. Ryuuji recalled that Rein had referred to it as the prisoner's dilemma and had also used the Nash equilibrium to explain her point. He felt that the creator of the Darwin's Game was laughing at them while urging them to be brave and try to trust others, and decided that whoever the creator was had a terrible personality. As they set out for the Ravens' base, Ryuuji thought of Wadatsumi and how he didn't trust him completely.

	+ In the anime, Fuli notices Shuka, while the manga doesn't mention it.
* Because Tagonaka Yukimasa's manga scenes up to this point in the anime were cut, the diamond ring spawns in the hotel instead and is claimed by Rein and Ichirou.

Flag Game Chapter 11

The eleventh chapter of the Darwin's Game ~Flag Game~ novel.

## Summary

After resolving herself, Rein went to the recreation room and found Kaname and Ryuuji there with grim looks on their faces. They had apparently been playing nine ball but couldn't get into it because of what they were worrying about. She asked them what they were concerned about, prompting them to ask her if she was okay and thanking her for using her sigil to help them during the fight at the warehouse, though their train of thought soon returned to "Kaji". Kaname and Ryuuji were unsure if the dead Kaji was the real Kaji, as they had received a message from the dead Kaji the day before, which they showed to Rein.

The message criticized Kaname and the Sunset Ravens for betraying him and stealing the goods, ending with Black Lotus declaring war on clan. In addition, there were two problems that arose because of this; the first was that they had no idea how a dead Kaji sent said message, especially since players were unable to use other players' Darwin's Game apps, and second, a copy of the message had been posted on the public channel for everyone to see. Although other players were currently doubtful of the message, it was still beginning to affect the Raven's negotiations with other clans. While Kaname and Ryuuji discussed their strategy for the next Flag Game, Rein thought about the dead Kaji.

Due to the message, they no longer knew if the dead Kaji was the real Kaji, though the fact that there was a dead body still remained. As she thought about it, she connected the stab wounds on the body to Shuka's request to find an elderly man with a sigil that could transform his fingers into blades, causing her to unconsciously mention Fuli's name.

She then thought about her clan, going over each of the members and their abilities, but wondered if she was worthy of being part of said clan. She blamed herself for the predicament during the battle three days ago since it'd been her plan. Although she had Laplace, she wouldn't be able to gain that much information, not to mention the concept of Laplace's Demon had been scientifically disproven. Her weapon was Laplace, an imitation of Laplace's Demon, and the one fighting was a cowardly girl that prioritized running away. She knew that their chance of winning was slim, nevertheless she resolved to fight her own battle of analyzing data and finding a way for the Ravens to win.

## Information

To form a clan, the clan leader must be at least rank B2. There is no member count requirement, as Kanehira Hideaki was in his own clan by himself. A clan can either be a place for like minded individuals to gather, like Sunset Ravens, or a group that exists for people to take advantage of, like the clan Olive Tree, which solo players could join simply to use clan services.

Clans have special versions of shelters known as clan shelters which they can release to non members. Clan shelter function the same way as normal shelters but are limited to the corresponding clan's territory.

Flag Game Chapter 5

The fifth chapter of the Darwin's Game ~Flag Game~ novel.

## Summary

At the beginning of the meeting, Rein displayed a map on the screen, along with markers that showed where the Sunset Ravens and Black Lotus bases were. Although Black Lotus had only taken over half of the Meguro area's four areas, they were planning on coming over to the Shibuya area, which Rein confirmed based on what she had heard and the information on weapons deals she had gathered. She then displayed that list on the screen, with Ryuuji commenting that they had even bought RPGs, causing him to suggest that they needed to think of an idea to deal with the invasion.

Xuelan offered to go over to the Meguro area and massacre the members of Black Lotus, though Kaname rejected her idea, pointing out that the base was beyond the Shibuya area. Three weeks earlier, around the same time the clan was formed, the Sunset Ravens had fought Eighth. On the night of their victory, they had sent a message to all players, also translated into English and Chinese, that the Shibuya area was now theirs and that any players participating in unauthorized Darwin's Games in said area would be punished in the name of the Raven's leader Kaname.

The Ravens would have a steady income by controlling the Shibuya area, and Rein suggested setting a border in order to prevent themselves from making too many enemies. Defeating Eighth gave legitimacy to their claim of taking over the Shibuya area, and their message would show others that they didn't have any interest in taking more territory. According to Rein's plan, the Ravens would quickly finish taking control over the Shibuya area and at the same time form non-aggression pacts with the clans in the surrounding areas.

Because of this, the Ravens couldn't risk all of their efforts being wasted by invading outside of the Shibuya area, which Rein pointed out to Xuelan. Ryuuji agreed, bringing up the fact that they were almost finished negotiating with the clan Twin Head Shark located in the Minato area. At that point, Kaname asked if there was any information on the Black Lotus leader, though Rein could only tell him that he was named Kaji and that he was a womanizer as there wasn't that much information about him. Upon hearing her reply, Kaname decided that they'd stick to their original plan and take the last area in the Shibuya area instead of defending their base, pointing out that they could still potentially make a deal with Black Lotus because they hadn't invaded yet.

Ryuuji agreed with the idea, telling him that he was ready to go at any time, but before Kaname could open the Darwin's Game app, he received a message from Kaji about a potential alliance between their clans. Soon after, they heard the sound of the intercom, and saw a smiling young man waving at them on the monitor.

Hiiragi Suzune

* Manga (Timeskip)
* Anime
* Manga (Pre Timeskip)

**Hiiragi Suzune** (ヒイラギ 鈴音) is Hiiragi Ichirou's daughter and a member of Danjou Boxing Club.

## Appearance

Suzune has amber eyes and long black hair. She usually wears a white shirt, a black undershirt, black tights, and a flower shaped hair accessory.

## Personality

Suzune is friendly to anyone she comes across. Originally, she knew nothing about the Darwin's Game, and her trying to look into her father's death almost resulted in her death. Despite facing an experienced opponent, she didn't back down, stating that she was already resolved to die. She is good friends with Kashiwagi Rein due to both being close in age and the fact that their names are spelled the same way.

After the timeskip, Suzune has gotten more assertive and confident in her abilities, asking Danjou to allow her to return to Out of Range Village on her own. She is observant, noting that the Greed were attacking as a coordinated force, though she is shown to potentially make poor decision such as considering attacking a human Greed.

## Abilities

**Mag Mell** (常若の国(マグ・メル)): Mag Mell is a metamorphic sigil that allows Suzune to change various body parts into that of a beast. She has been shown to transform her arms, such as creating bear arms, and used a horn on her head to sense where her opponent was. Using the sigil gives her immense speed and power, and for an unknown reason, her obtaining the sigil cured her heart problem. It is shown that Suzune suffers recoil depending on what she transforms her body parts into, becoming unable to move after creating and attacking with bear arms, though she had already been using her sigil to fight the Greed D so it is unknown what her actual limit is. She was unable to properly control her sigil at first, resulting in beast ears and a tail showing, but later becomes able to manage it.

After the timeskip, Suzune has become much more skilled at using her sigil, easily dealing with a group of Greed that attempted to attack her. She is more assertive and confident in her abilities as well, asking Danjou to allow her to head back on her own since she could be of help the most. She is also able to see in the dark, though it is unknown if it is due to her sigil.
Kukuri

**Hi Watari Himeookami Kukurinomikoto** (氷 亙 姫大神 菊理命), more commonly known as **Kukuri** (ククリ), is a Kouu's younger sister. Originally thought to be a princess, she is later revealed to be the current emperor and Guardian of the World Branch of World Line O.

Flag Game Chapter 17

The seventeenth chapter of the Darwin's Game ~Flag Game~ novel.

## Summary

Due to the Sunset Ravens' initial response going well, Rein almost relaxed but quickly focused herself since the fight wasn't over. She knew that Sui and Souta's ice walls wouldn't hold up forever, and she was especially worried about the fake Kaji, who she hadn't seen on any of the security cameras. Turning her attention back to the map, she saw Yayaren retreating after being surrounded by Kaname and the others, causing her to order Shuka to go after them while having the rest of the group defend point B which was the northeastern flag.

Kaname and the others reached the enemies near the northeastern flag 20% faster than Rein expected and began dealing with them. Once they finished, she asked what clan they were from, to which Ryuuji answered that they were Black Lotus members. Rein then asked about "Kaji", prompting Ryuuji to tell her that he wasn't there, however there wasn't any way to know for sure since he could change his appearance. Just as she was about to make her decision on what to have Kaname's group do next, she saw a shadow on a camera and noticed four people hiding in the shadow of the building across the street from the Ravens main base.

The four players were using the hide cloak item to remove themselves from searches, and upon using Laplace to analyze the data from the camera on the roof, she realized that they were Wadatsumi and three other members of Twin Head Shark. Knowing that she wouldn't be able to deal with them, she asked Shuka to come back to help her, and transferred command to Kaname since she would have to deal with the four invaders until Shuka arrived. As she descended using the elevator, Rein checked over her equipment, which included the Skorpion vz. 61 she was holding in her right hand, three magazines, three flash grenades, and the frag grenade in her coat pocket, and a dagger in the holder strapped to her right thigh.

Rein checked the security camera footage again, watching as Wadatsumi's group broke through the security shutter and entered the building. She got off the elevator on the 2nd floor, locked it using the master key to prevent the enemies from using it, used the hide cloak item, and removed the safety from her submachine gun.

Flag Game Chapter 13

The thirteenth chapter of the Darwin's Game ~Flag Game~ novel.

## Summary

After gathering her resolve, Rein used Laplace on herself, letting herself sink all the way to the bottom of the sea. Although she could fully analyze all sorts of information when she was in her current state, staying too long that far deep into Laplace would make her lose her sense of self, potentially leading to her becoming mentally disabled for life. Nevertheless, it was worth taking the risk to use Laplace on herself, as being in this state allowed her to shut out outside noise, ignore physical limits, and potentially transcend her own knowledge and thought process.

Knowing that she couldn't waste any more time, she reaffirmed her goal, which was to win tomorrow's Flag Game with the other members of the Sunset Ravens and finish taking over the entire Shibuya area. She'd come up with and shared a basic plan with the others the day before, though "Kaji" worried her, and she knew that he'd be their worst opponent in the Flag Game. As she analyzed the existence of the two Kajis, she wondered why she was desperate to come up with an answer, noting that it was unlike her. She then realized that she didn't want to lose the other Ravens members, who she considered to be her valuable companions, and while it was unlike her, she didn't consider it to be a bad feeling.

In the dining room, Shuka hugged Kaname from behind and invited him on a date. Kaname, who'd been drinking his after lunch coffee with Ryuuji, turned around in surprise, mentioning that tomorrow was the day of the next Flag Game. Ryuuji gave her a reproachful look for interrupting their discussion about the Flag Game plan, nevertheless he averted his gaze when she glared back at him. Lately, she felt like she was stressed, and decided that letting the man she loved spoil her was the thing to do in times like these. Since they had already decided on a plan for the Flag Game, Kaname agreed to her date request, which was to watch a movie that she wanted to see. While Kaname left to prepare for the date, Shuka began looking up movies at their local theater. She talked to herself while she reviewed the movies, prompting Ryuuji to comment on the movies she was looking at, though she ignored his "advice", considering him to be annoying. A short while later, Kaname returned with a coat and asked her what movie they were going to see, which she told him, and said movie was a movie Ryuuji considered to be bad.

Flag Game Chapter 1

**Prologue** (プロローグ) is the first chapter of the Darwin's Game ~Flag Game~ novel.

## Summary

At dusk, Kashiwagi Rein waited on a rooftop with her sniper rifle and a raincoat, ready to shoot at their opponents who Karino Shuka was herding toward Shibuya Station's southern exit. Although it was raining, she was more concerned about the chill rather than her view, as she could use Laplace for support. The Sunset Ravens were currently in the middle of a clan match using the flag game rule, which involved defending a flag bought from the store to claim an area as clan territory. The Ravens had already claimed 3 of the 4 Shibuya areas and were fighting the clan Hate Bears over the fourth.

Soon after, Rein saw two men running out from the station and readied her rifle. During the 20 minutes that had already passed, their opponents had apparently been reduced from 10 to 2, and the two men that were running were frequently looking back over their shoulder to check for Shuka. Using Laplace, Rein shot the first man in the shin, causing him to fall. The second man tried to help him up, though his hand was impaled by Shuka's chain. He tried to shoot Shuka but was finished off before he could do so by the other half of the chain which went through his mouth.

After getting injured during the Shibuya Treasure Hunting game, he has scars on his face and wears an eye patch over his right eye, along with a shirt, a dark jacket, and dark pants.

## Personality

Originally, Keiichi had a more normal view on death, feeling guilty for accidentally killing his semi final opponent during a national karate tournament. However, he later became influenced by Wang, who advised him to feel better about killing by killing even more, and came to believe that humans were built to die the moment they were born.

## Abilities

**Tempest** (豪風拳(テンペスト)): Tempest allowed Keiichi to control air, making him able to add it onto his strikes for extra damage, use it to travel through the air by kicking, or create a barrier to protect himself and others. He could also hit people indirectly with his sigil.

During Sunset Ravens and Inukai's attack on Eighth, he was the only member that the alliance couldn't defeat, easily dealing with Inukai, and he only lost because he lost all of his points due to the clan battle.

## Trivia

* According to the author, Keiichi uses his mother's maiden name of **Katsura** (カツラ) instead of Kamizaki as a part of his Darwin's Game player name.
