Originally, this was normal. He thought that being with her was natural as he was together with her for a long time, but an angel such as Rita coming into contact with an ordinary person like Yu IlHan was, in the first place, an extremely rare case.
An existence that can never be connected to even in the same space. Didn’t Rita herself name herself a higher existence?
“A higher existence, eh……”
Yu IlHan softly muttered to himself and tightened his fists.
Pile up techniques and knowledge to not lose behind other humans when the Great Cataclysm occurs. This was Yu IlHan’s objective until now.
However, now, he had a grand, but a firm objective.
Higher existence, if I become one, then I’ll be able to meet and talk to her again. I will finally be able to stand on the same level as her.
So I’ll become one. There was nothing that didn’t work out after I put in effort so won’t I be able to become one if I work hard as if I’m about to die? – Yu IlHan resolved himself as such.
Of course, Yu IlHan didn’t know that forget the same level, he had completely caught her heart to the point that he couldn’t catch any more. It was because he was a virgin who didn’t even hold hands with a woman for more than 1000 years.
Regardless of whether Yu IlHan resolved or not, the world was returning to its original state. The exploded cars were restored and returned to their original positions, and everything in the world, which was damaged when coming in to contact with Yu IlHan, returned to its former state.
And that moment was approaching.
Yu IlHan calmly closed his eyes and waited, like he did in the distant past.
And when a few hours passed, he felt the world, and himself changing. He knew about his physical body more than anyone else. And a small but a clear changed had occurred to his body.
A cool, luminous, wondrous, strong energy. When his heart beat, that energy also beat along with his heart as if it was originally like that.
He didn’t even need to ponder about it. This was mana. A new energy that Earth had come in contact with. The energy that humans adapted to in the 10 years they stayed in other worlds. The energy that Yu IlHan had to adapt to in the future.
‘Well, I’ll probably be able to do it.’
He was different to his past self who was a childish college freshman. No, well, the two were on the same point in the time axis, but didn’t he have a history of the countless years of effort, and its achievements?
He opened his eyes. There were a lot of people inside the campus which was cramped. While making expressions that they were surprised, but nervous as if they were waiting for this.
People. There were really a lot of people. Due to being too happy, he wanted to scream, but he suppressed it.
“We really came back after 10 years.”
“According to their words, we can finally……”
“Uu, I’m scared.”
“Hey, I can open the status here too!”
“Kek, Everything really reset!”
Screams and exclamations happened here and there. It was at this moment that Yu IlHan felt that something was off.
The fact that they said that they came back in 10 years was something that Rita said and it was nothing strange. However, weren’t they too familiar with each other? Normally, when people lived separately in other worlds, it was normal to be awkward with each other.
If not, then what. Doesn’t that mean that everyone here was in the same world!? No, wait, thinking about it, there was no reason to separate the people who were in the same place. And if that’s true…… Wouldn’t they find out that Yu IlHan was left behind!?
Yu IlHan became nervous and he turned his head even though the ‘people’ he had missed for such a long time were in front of him. However, it was impossible. He was in the center of the square. He could only be found o……
‘……Eh?’
Yu IlHan raised his head. However, the people around him only talked to themselves and didn’t spare a glance towards Yu IlHan. No, it seemed like they hadn’t even noticed him.
Of course, the special situation of just being returned played a role, but they had a good reason to find out about him but as if they had planned beforehand, they were all ignoring him. How was this possible!?
‘Oh. It was like that wasn’t it?”
However, after pondering for a bit, Yu IlHan had no choice but to accept the impossible situation.
He had forgotten due to talking with Rita for so many years, but he had a legendary achievement of being left out during elementary school picnic, middle school training camp, and high school trip.
Was it only that? Being missed out even if he raised his hand at the very front seat while registration in college happened very often. It was no exaggeration to call him the Phantom Sixth Man.
And so, there was no way the excited Earthlings could recognize Yu IlHan. Once a loner was forever a loner.
“Great, I say. Great, you Earthlings……!”
He even spoke out loud but the people surrounding him didn’t look like they had noticed him at all. For some reason, the returnees he had
