When I casually turned on the TV after my bath, I found that all the channels were broadcasting the same content.

　The same dialogue repeated through the TV speakers.

　The constant stream of tickers that changed words into letters.

'All citizens are hereby informed. Please conduct an aptitude survey as soon as possible.'

　He then repeats that if you have family members or people you know who haven't seen the broadcast, tell them to take the aptitude survey.

　What has happened in the last few hours?　Didn't I just advise you not to take the aptitude test?

　Is this actually a surprise show with amateur participation, and is there a camera somewhere filming me?

　Would a TV station even plant a spam message on your smartphone?

　An unsolicited email went off at the university all at once. It wasn't an extra, but certainly a familiar face, a student from the same university, who was receiving it.

　Mobilizing that many people and fooling me, an amateur and, to top it all off, a bloke?

　It's impossible.

　Most importantly, it's impossible to involve the news and summary sites I was looking at earlier.

　I picked up my smartphone with a hint of anxiety.

　I control my smartphone and display the junk mail - 'World Salvation Project'.

　Then, I gathered my courage and clicked on the word "Start".

'Please answer the following questions. You may give false answers. In that case, we will recognize you as having chosen a false answer.'

　Modern smartphones are full of health care related apps. Pulse rate, blood pressure, and even the distance you walked that day and the speed. Even the distance and speed you walked that day can be measured on its own.
　Perhaps they can even be used as a simple lie detector if you use them. In fact, there are many such apps available.

　Q1 Is there anyone in the world you want to protect?

　1. more than 10 people 2. more than 5 people 3. more than 3 people 4. more than 1 person 5. no one

　Hmm?　If there were 12 of them, wouldn't all of them fit in 1, 2, 3, 4?　

　By the way, I have parents and a sister. My family is very important to me. However, if you say that they are people I want to protect, it's a little different. I'm still a student, so I'd rather be protected by them, wouldn't I?　My sister is in high school too. It's a little strange that I, as the older brother, am protecting her.

　So, she?　No.　Kids?　There's no way he's here.

　Huh?　Would the answer be five in my case?

　Somehow, I hate to choose that.

　That said ... in the end I chose 5--not even one.

　Then the vague questions followed.

'Are you happy with your life now?' Do you like this world? Are you full of dreams and hopes? "Is there anyone you hate so much you want to kill? ........etc.

　Some of them are, "Is it necessary to lie? Do you think lying is inexcusable? Etc. etc., don't they mean the same thing?　There were many similar questions that seemed to be asked. Incidentally, the answers were all a choice of five.

　After answering 500 questions, the tendency shifted to questions like a psychological test.

　Which of the five people, A, B, C, D and E, do you empathize with in various situations?　Which person do you find hardest to forgive?　The questions continued to be asked, such as.

　Finally, after five hours, far more than the announced three hours, all the questions - a thousand questions - were answered.

''Thank you for your hard work. Mr. Shion Kurosaki. Your aptitude is 【Chaos】. I will now guide Kurosaki-sama, who desires freedom and chaos, to the [Awakening Room].''

　....What?

　And I lost consciousness.
