[ The Kid At The Back Day 1: The Beloved - Complete Story Guide ]

Demo Notice: This page covers Day 1 content from the free demo. Day 1 is titled "The Beloved" and serves as the introduction to the game's story and characters.

Day 1 Overview

Day 1, titled "The Beloved", introduces you to the mysterious world of The Kid At The Back. You'll meet the main characters, establish initial relationships, and make choices that will affect your journey through the story.

The day is structured around several key scenes: the morning, classroom introduction, lunch, and the crucial stargazing event.

Character Introductions

Sol

The mysterious transfer student who sits at the back of the classroom. Sol wears black attire, has heterochromia eyes (different colored eyes), and sports piercings that add to their enigmatic aura. Their quiet demeanor hides a complex personality that players will discover throughout the game.

First Impressions: Sol appears distant and mysterious. They don't seem interested in making friends with the other students, preferring to sit alone and observe.

First Impressions: Crowe is warm and inviting. Their smile is described as charming, and they seem genuinely friendly to new students.

Understanding the Consequences

If You Choose "Hug him":

• Relationship building continues in Day 2
• This is the recommended choice for a full experience

If You Choose "Kiss him":

• You will immediately trigger the Bad Ending: "No Witnesses"
• This ending concludes Day 1 (and Day 2) with a dark conclusion

Bad Ending: No Witnesses

Triggered by choosing "Kiss him" during stargazing

Story Summary

The Player and Crowe are stargazing together. The atmosphere is romantic and intimate. When given the choice, the Player decides to kiss Crowe.

The Kiss: The Player feels butterflies rattling in their stomach, their heart beating fast. Crowe freezes at first, making the Player want to apologize. But then, something unexpected happens. Crowe presses the Player closer to him, returns the kiss, and uses his hands to hold the Player's waist gently, not wanting to let go.

This tender moment ends Day 1 on what seems like a romantic note, but the consequences will unfold in Day 2...
