**[On the screen, a young man gently holds a girl. Both are covered in dark crystalline structures, and the boy is steadily absorbing the dark crystals.]**

**Guilty Crown World**
"Doesn't that guy look like Shu?" **Hanagawa Yashiro** exclaimed in shock.
"That *is* Shu!" **Ayase Shinomiya** insisted through gritted teeth.
"My god, isn't that our classmate?"
"Wait, *Ouma Shu* is a savior?!"
"Am I going crazy, or is the world going crazy?"
Everyone in this world now knew that a savior named **Ouma Shu** had emerged from their midst. Was he the one who ended the "Apocalypse Virus"?
...
**One Piece World**
"It seems another tragedy is unfolding," **Admiral Sengoku** murmured, watching the expressions of the young boy and girl. He recognized the look in their eyes—it was the gaze of those prepared to die.
Was it like last time? Was it destined for a savior to disappear?
...
**Naruto World**
"Kakashi-sensei... are they going to die this time too?" **Naruto** asked, unable to bear the pain visible on their faces.
"I don't know..." **Kakashi** shook his head. The weight of being a "savior" was too heavy—something he couldn't fully comprehend.

**[The scene shifts, and an introduction begins]**
**[Japan fell into chaos due to the sudden outbreak of the "Apocalypse Virus." Ten years later, a high school sophomore named Ouma Shu encounters the girl he has long admired—Yuzuriha Inori...]**
**[The boy arrives at an abandoned factory as usual, but before entering, he hears a song coming from inside. Following the sound, he finds...]**
**[A girl bathed in the setting sun, staring blankly through a skylight opening, singing softly. Half of her body is visible in the light. The boy stares, mesmerized, and slowly approaches.]**
**[He accidentally kicks an empty can, alerting the girl. She tenses up defensively. In her panic, she accidentally activates a computer the boy had been working on.]**
["Um... It's not finished yet. It's a scene from my hometown."]
**[The girl's eyes light up slightly as she calmly says, "It's beautiful."]**
**[The boy introduces himself, but the girl responds by handing him a braided string of flowers, saying words he doesn't understand: "Take it."]**
**[Before he can react, armed men burst in, injuring Inori and taking her away.]**
**[The boy stares helplessly through the wire mesh, watching her being taken away. His eyes are filled with confusion, chaos, and helplessness.]**
["Can I really do this?"]
["Escaping the violence so uselessly... I felt a little relieved."]
**[The boy wrestles internally with his thoughts.]**
...
**Attack on Titan World**
"If you don't stand up and fight, nothing will change!" **Eren Yeager** roared angrily, frustrated by Shu's hesitation.
It was as if he saw a part of himself in Shu, and it infuriated him.
...
**Arifureta World**
"He's just like how I used to be—weak," **Hajime Nagumo** laughed self-deprecatingly.
If he hadn't faced life-and-death situations and been betrayed by his comrades, he would never have become who he was now. Without adversity, he would have remained indecisive and cowardly.
...
**Re:Zero World**
"As a fellow Japanese high school student, I get you," **Subaru Natsuki** said with empathy. If not for his strong will, he would have broken down after dying countless times.
After all, being a Japanese high school student is a dangerous job.
...
**[Shu eventually picks up a robotic dog and follows its tracking signal.]**
**[He arrives at a location only to find a group of thugs.]**
**[A bald thug eyes the device in Shu's arms and tries to snatch it. Shu refuses to let go.]**
**[As expected, Shu is punched and beaten. Just as the thug is about to do more, a sudden light illuminates the area.]**
**[A handsome, long-haired blond man appears effortlessly and deals with the thugs.]**
**[The blond man locks eyes with Shu. Suddenly, someone runs up and shouts, "Gai, GHQ forces have broken into the streets!"]**
**[The scene shifts to men in white uniforms indiscriminately slaughtering people with advanced weapons. Endless flames and ruined buildings turn the area into a living hell.]**
...
People from peaceful worlds felt grateful their nations hadn't experienced such horrors.
**[Gunfire and mecha combat fill the streets. Screams of agony echo everywhere as countless lives are lost.]**
**[Shu, who has never experienced anything like this, is completely paralyzed with fear and confusion.]**
**[Gai turns to Shu and shouts, "Shu, this time you must protect her!"]**
**[Shu doesn't recall ever telling Gai his name, but thoughts of Inori compel him to rush forward.]**
**[Inori steps out of a vehicle and calmly walks toward a robot. Shu, who had initially retreated, stops himself.]**
**[The next moment, he charges forward and embraces Inori. Something seems to shatter between them.]**
**[When Shu opens his eyes again, everything has changed. His crimson eyes widen in shock.]**
["This is...?"]
**[Beams of light wrap around his arm, forming a dark sigil on the back of his hand.]**
**[Inori releases her hands and looks deeply at Shu. "I'm counting on you, Shu. Use my power."]**
**[Shu stares at the glowing light emanating from Inori's chest, vaguely recalling another girl who once said similar words to him.]**
["Shu, you must take it this time."]
["Who...?"]
["This is power—the power of the Guilty Crown, woven from the human heart."]
**[Images from Shu's life flash through his mind—from childhood to the present.]**
**[The fear and panic that once clouded his mind vanish, replaced by calmness and authority. His eyes become cold and imposing.]**
**[The boy extends his glowing right hand toward the girl's chest. Crystals rapidly form into a longsword.]**
**[A blue light pierces the sky. When it fades, the boy finally comes to his senses, bewildered by everything that has happened.]**
**[But now, the once-threatening robots are nothing before him. With a single swing of the sword, a robot explodes into flames.]**
**[The boy who once had no power now possesses immense strength. He effortlessly deflects incoming missiles with a single motion...]**
**[The immediate crisis is temporarily resolved.]**
**[Shu and Inori return to Gai, who explains the "Power of the King" and "Void" abilities to them.]**
**[Afterward, Shu tries to return to a normal life, but witnesses of his actions spread rumors. He begins searching the school based on clues about the form of the "Void"...]**
...
**Guilty Crown World**
"Shu, you bastard! You reached into my chest!" **Souta Tamadate** grabbed Shu by the collar, staring at him intensely.
In the footage, he was shown rolling his eyes in pain—how much must it have hurt?!
"Ouma Shu-kun, I demand an explanation!" **Kanon Kusama** adjusted her glasses, pushing Souta aside with a dark expression. After all, he had touched her *there*.
Everyone whose "Void" had been extracted by Shu was now glaring at him with hostility.
And many others were simply jealous—how did he get such incredible power?
