Synopsis

The Metabius tower is revealed to be a facility designed to produce 'truth-seekers' through brutal trials, where individuals are made to grapple with and discard human emotions. The protagonist learns that his actions are being closely monitored by the gods, and if he continues his disruptive behavior, he will be deemed a threat and eliminated. Despite the warnings, the protagonist refuses to compromise his goals, leading to a fight against the tower's floor guardians. He also uncovers the tragic backstories of the puppets, who harbor deep anger and hatred towards the gods and the tower.
