Although time has returned and the disaster has been averted, after the day we escaped from annihilation, winter has already arrived.

"Look at the heavy snowfall."

I stood on the veranda and murmured. Perhaps due to the house being located in a secluded valley, the snow was falling heavily. I watched as the once green mountains were now covered in a pure white, breathing out white vapor.

...This year is passing by safely too.

As I observed the snow falling outside the window, I thought about the future. I have come a long way so far. The never-ending journey is gradually showing signs of hope. When I conducted the first terror attack, I wondered if I would even survive until the incident at the Wolgwang Bridge Gate. But now, I can see that day approaching.

I managed to hold on until the end of the apocalypse episodes.

"...By the end of this year, I should finish training the PMC and start recruiting for the 2nd and 3rd generation."

I continued my thoughts. It's time to seriously consider the world after the dimensional rift was opened at the Wolgwang Bridge, and the monsters started to rampage. In the original story, it turned into an extreme situation from that point onward. It was already chaotic, to the extent that one couldn't distinguish whether it was an apocalyptic story or a hero story. They said the population decreased by more than half.

Of course, it's impossible to prevent the dimensional rift from opening. It was set to open sooner or later even without the interference of the Wolgwang Bridge incident. However, at least I should make an effort to minimize the damage.

Then, it will be time for the final battle.

"...Phew."

I exhaled a white breath once again. First, I should start preparing for the upcoming Wolgwang Bridge incident. And also, I need to prepare Stardus for the final battle. She is the only one who can prevent the world's destruction.

Thinking briefly about the annihilation, my feelings became complicated. It's only natural that my head starts spinning when I think that the chaotic situation from the latter part of the original story might become reality after the Wolgwang Bridge incident.

"Da-in, are you finally done watching the snow alone? Come in and have some cocoa."

...Having seriously contemplated the future, I returned to the living room, where Seo-eun handed me a cup of cocoa. It was warm and sweet, quite delicious.

"Tastes good."

"It's good, right? I made it."

"Really?"

"Of course! Since I'll be a senior in just a few more days, I can make cocoa even better than Soobin now!"

She proudly declared, seeming more excited than when she explained a gadget to me. It's probably her way of showing her gratitude, and I find it adorable. I'm thankful too.

I continued to admire the snow for a few more minutes, and Seo-eun seemed to be in a good mood as her lips curved up. After spending some time together, she suddenly found something funny on her smartphone.

Meanwhile, I turned on the TV again to watch the news, hoping for something interesting. However, while yawning, I couldn't find anything particularly special in the news.

As Seo-eun giggled and showed me her phone, she handed it over, saying, "Look at this!"
