Cecilia wasn't amused, you'd think going back in time over and over again would be fun, but no. For Cecilia, who is just an NPC nothing can be worse than this. It is the same interaction over and over again for god knows how long. When she wakes up, it's the same thing, nothing ever changes. She gets up, walks to the bathroom, washes her face, gets some bread, and then walks to the Potion store where she works part-time. And when she's there. The first customer will always be a mustard-haired guy with glasses, at first. Cecilia didn't even notice that she was in a time loop. That was how boring her life was. Or well is.

The guy would order a 200HP Potion and would give her the same exact fragments of coins, at first Cecilia thought this was normal because the guy would do this for 5 times a week, once a day, Cecilia finally realized that she was in a time loop after the 30th day the guy ordered a 200HP Potion, It's insane. This only happens to Main Characters right? Or if we follow the new trends in the novel world, the Villainess as well. But no, Cecilia, an NPC, stuck in a time loop? She sighed in despair, maybe bad karma had hit her? This has been the 268th day that she's been stuck in a time loop, she's so close to punching the guy in the jaw, but no. And she can't quit either. What if the time loop stops after she quits her job? She'll be jobless then. But I guess being a little bit more daring won't hurt either? Or at least that's what Cecilia thought when she eyed the fresh Croissant glistening with its buttery coat through a bakery's window, maybe it's ok to stray away from her usual routine. And not in the sense that she'll buy the pastry but like, steal it. But that would be close to impossible wouldn't it? There's a glass wall dividing Cecilia from the deliciousness of the butter Croissant and all of the other breads, the only bread that is within reachable distance is a stick of Baguette. Cecilia shook her head, It's not worth it, she thought as she hurried back to her humble home.

When night fell, Cecilia lay in her bed restless, I can't, I can't, I can't go through the same day again. She thought to herself, she was crazy enough to withstand 268 days, there's no way she will go through another day. But where will it end? Of course, at first, Cecilia had her doubts about whether or not this was a time loop, in fact, she thought she was simply going crazy from the mundane, so she wrote a note in her journal, and turns out, the writing was gone the next morning, at that point she was sure that she's stuck in a time loop. Either way, Cecilia fell asleep thinking about what to do in the morning, whether it would be a new day or another time loop.
