After everything is done, focus on one thing.

That was my new motto.

That said, now that the dust has settled and the Moonlight Gate disaster is just around the corner I have to focus all my attention on that one thing until the day of reckoning.

With that, I've stopped everything Stardus-related, and now I'm really running to prepare for this.

Stardus is already strong enough as it is. I just need to give it a final check and put it to work.

Therefore, I now devote all my remaining time to this scourge!

...With that said, it took me a month to travel the country and identify the magical circles that would stop the power of the Moonlight Church.

"....Is this the last one?"

"Uh, I think we're pretty much done here."

"Phew...Finally."

In a forest somewhere in South Korea, where the deep green trees blocked the sunlight and formed deep shadows, Choi Sehee sighed and muttered to herself.

It's been over a month since we traveled across the country to build this magic circle, and a lot has happened.

Since it became a long-term project, the members traveling with us have changed a lot.

Eun-woo and I were the only ones who were doing the magic circle, and the other members took turns following us. You never know what might happen along the way, so you have to have an escort.

"....."

In the forest Eun-wool, with her black hair hanging down and her white shrine maiden outfit, her hands clasped together, closes her eyes and casts a magic circle.

Me and Choi Sehee sat on a nearby rock, feeling the cool breeze in the forest, waiting for her.

"Why did it took you a month to do this?"

Seeing Choi Sehee picking up a leaf nearby and burning it with electricity, I replied.

"Because I traveled all over the country."

"...Still, haven't you been traveling for too long?"

Choi Sehee stuck out her tongue like she was copying Seo Eun and said that. It was as if she was trying to emphasize her regret.

Seeing that, I couldn't help but smile, and muttered to myself as I looked at Eun-wol, who was kneeling down and diligently creating a magic circle.

"...Still, it was something I had to do."

"That aside...I don't know."

Having said that, Choi Se-hee rubbed her head, then turned to me and said in a slightly wistful tone.

"Without you, the atmosphere in the house is just... dull."

"Huh...?"

It's been a month since I left home and in that time, I've only been home a few times.

I've been traveling all over the country, and it takes too much time to get back and forth, so Eun-woo and I have been staying at whatever local lodging we can find.

I didn't really know what the rest of the group was doing while I was gone.

"You know, Seo-Eun and Ha-Yul follow you a lot. At least Eun-wol was always with you. Without you, Soobin and Seo Jae-young are kind of lost."

Choi Se-hee touched her hair and said,

Considering that Soobin and Seo Jae-young were also together in the middle, that's three weeks of actual time apart...?
