Playing Death Games to Put Food on the Table, Vol. 2 (novel)

Three months after the events of Candle Woods, Yuki plunges back into the world of death games. This time, she’s participating in Scrap Building, a race to escape an unstable, abandoned structure. But to make it out with her life, she must contend with Mishiro, a haughty, pretentious player intent on getting in her way.

Time goes by, and Yuki finds herself in a game called Golden Bath, staring down the Wall of Thirty—a curse in the industry where misfortune befalls players around their thirtieth game. Whether the effects of the curse are real, or her awareness of the phenomenon is tripping her up, one thing is for certain—Yuki is in bad shape as she contends with her toughest game yet.
