Danganronpa Test 1

[School – Monokuma's Execution Yard]

The trial had ended.

The atmosphere was heavy. Nobody was talking.

Monokuma appeared laughing as always, breaking the silence.

Monokuma: “Ehehe~! The verdict has been decided!”

Everyone watched tensely.

Makoto Naegi clenched his fists nervously. Kyoko Kirigiri watched silently, analyzing everything. Byakuya Togami just frowned, showing no emotion. Aoi Asahina was trembling. Toko Fukawa murmured in fear. Sakura Ogami maintained a firm, but serious, posture.

Monokuma: “The culprit… the blackened one is…”

Absolute silence.

Monokuma: “Leon Kuwata!”

A second of total shock.

Leon stepped back, shaking his head.

Lion: "Wait, wait! I didn't want it to end like this!"

Monokuma: "Well~ rules are rules. Time for execution!"

The ground opened up beneath Leon, and he was pulled into the school's execution system.

[Execution – “The baseball punishment”]

The whole group watched from afar, unable to intervene.

Baseball machines began to activate, launching balls at impossible speeds as the system put him through a chaotic sequence designed as punishment.

Makoto looked away. Aoi was on the verge of tears. Toko was trembling uncontrollably. Kyoko said nothing, but her gaze was colder than usual.

Monokuma (laughing from a screen): “This is what happens when you break the rules of the game!”

After a few moments… the system stopped.

Silence.

Monokuma: “Ehehe~! First punishment completed.”

The group was devastated by the emotional impact.

Nobody knew what to say.

Only one thing was clear:

The game was just getting started.
