In this chapter, we are introduced to a new character named "Sizzle" . We learn that he is the administrator of the game, and that he has been waiting for the protagonist for some time. He tells the protagonist that the ten-day doom challenge is over and that the protagonist should not play any more tricks. The protagonist says that he wants to eat, but the voice in his head tells him that the voice is not human, but an advanced spirit. The voice says that the game wants to destroy the protagonist because the protagonist's mother will appear to him as if she were dead, and the game will confirm his identity. This will make the protagonist fall off a cliff, which will destroy him. He says that his credit has been "overdrawn" by the game and that his voice is the "most wonderful voice" he has ever heard.
