Every time midnight passes, the name 4URmn_x or Midnight always haunts the Japanese gaming world. Known as the number one gamer, their skill across various genres – MMORPGs, gacha, and even platformers – has made them a mysterious and feared figure. No one knows their real identity. They always use the same username, avatar, and bio: "My name is Midnight. And this account is served for your midnight's nightmare with me as an x." For years, Midnight has only ever lost once in each game, sparking various theories. Some say they did it on purpose, others believe their opponent was just lucky, and there are even rumors about a self-made intelligent automation program. Each of their victories always ends with the legendary message: "Too easy. Victory is mine." However, everything changes when they are challenged to enter a mysterious survival game after getting humiliated by their rival, where every weekend, players must kill or manipulate each other to survive. Midnight arrives empty-handed, underestimated, and given the title "Mid Gamer" due to their weak physique and meager equipment. But with their intelligence and survival instincts, Midnight is determined to prove that victory is not always determined by weapons or status, but rather by brains, courage, and precise timing. Can Midnight change the game and carve their name into this survival world?
