Chapter 3: The Great Outdoors:
This chapter occurs outside, on the academy grounds and in a nearby forest. It is discovered that an invisible electric fence surrounds the school grounds, as well as other unseen defense mechanisms.
The students decide to have a fun evening around a campfire, and Rinku uses her Talent to forage for food. Maho uses hers to cook it. Unfortunately, the mushrooms Rinku found caused everyone to hallucinate their deepest and most personal fear the entire night.
Aoi's body is found the next morning, barely clinging to life. And Ibuki's charred corpse is beside the invisible electric fence.
Noa was the killer, the mushrooms awakening her Nozomi side and compelling her to purge the Ugly in the name of protecting the Cute. She chose Aoi at first because of Aoi's masculine appearance, but as the night went on, she began to realize that the ugliness she really wanted to destroy was the ugliness that existed inside of people.
That was what led her to attack Ibuki, whom she blamed for Saki's death. And then Monochio, as she spent the rest of the night building an EMP blaster that she hoped would destroy the headcatster. Noa also rigged the hospital with a concoction of toxic gas in the hopes of killing the entire class, including herself, once they all sought medical attention the next morning.
But because Monochio didn't want the game to end so abruptly, it triggered the body discovery announcement for Ibuki even though no one had found her body. It is also revealed that Noa's Talent helped her "fake" her way through her hallucinations, and allowed her to figure out what other people's hallucinations were based on how they were acting.
Her execution is "All The World's A Stage" and starts with her onstage, tied up like a human puppet, face sewn into a smile. The execution opens with three witches singing around a bubbling cauldron. Each one is a version of Noa, past, present, and future, growing increasingly ugly.
Noa is shoved into the boiling pot and the heat shoots her back out onto a balcony so tall that the audience of Monochios can only see her feet. A second later, though, the balcony cracks beneath her feet and she plummets back to the stage, which is now engulfed in battle (Capulets vs Montagues).
Noa is somehow beheaded during the fight, head soaring through the air, only to be caught by her body which then performs a Hope/Despair version of Hamlet's "To Be, or Not to Be". At the very end, the ropes holding Noa up are cut and she collapses to the stage right as the lights go out.
One DR trope in this chapter is a fanservice scene. In this chapter, I would have M4 playing volleyball outside with the muscle trio. Despite Rika's Talent, she takes a clumsy fall that takes everyone else down with her and they all end up in suggestive poses.
This chapter also uses the crazy killer trope but circumvents the double death trope.
Chapter 4: Divided Worlds:
This motive takes from V3's Necronomicon and has Monochio promise the students that if they can figure out how to combine technology and magic the right way, they can resurrect all their dead friends. The people on "Team Tech" (Maho, Muni, all of Peaky, Towa, Dalia, and Marika) explore the school's VR lab and uncover more of their backstories.
The people on the "Heroes of History" (Rinku, Rei, Rika, Saori, Aoi, Hiiro, Tsubaki, and Miyu) explore the school's anthropology lab and uncover a resurrection ritual using the legend of Izanami-no-Mikoto. She is the deity of both creation and death in Japanese mythology, as well as the Shinto mother goddess. Once all the clues are collected, everyone meets in the VR lab.
While half the team goes into the VR to talk to the recovered consciousnesses of their fallen friends, the other half summons Izanami, but a blackout occurs right in the middle of it. The students spend the night running and fighting through the darkness as Izanami is indeed summoned, but because it isn't done properly, they bring back a vengeful version of her that can't be reasoned with.
Aoi is the victim, found impaled by a spear and tied to a flagpole on the school roof with other sigils and symbols carved into her body. The killer was trying to frame Izanami, but the trial proves that Aoi's killer was not Izanami. It was Dalia.
Aoi unintentionally spooked her during the night, and Dalia, who was already terrified of the supernatural, lashed out before she realized who she was talking to. Then, Dalia panicked again, unable to find the courage to admit what she did. That was when she got to work hiding Aoi's body and tampering with the crime scene.
Her execution is "I Will Never Die" and involves her being chased through a dojo by the spirits and corpses of her fallen friends. Aoi is the last phantom Dalia confronts and she drags Dalia into the grave. One DR trope in this chapter is the Gentle Giant trope, as two of the tallest D4 girls star in this chapter.
