"Mission accomplished."

"Mission rewards are being distributed...... Issued. ”

A small silver card, a small white porcelain bottle, this is the reward of this mission.

"Is this a time rewind card?"

Xiaobai was holding a palm-sized silver-white card in his hand, and there was no decoration on it, it was simple and simple.

"How do you use it?"

"Just inject power, but before I do that, I have one thing to warn you of." A dialog box pops up.

"Once you turn back time, everything will go back to the way it was, that is, even the Dark Monarch will return to your body again."

"Nani? So what did I work so hard to seal it for? ”

"In order not to interrupt him to turn back time."

"Hmm...... You have a point. ”

Your system brother will always be your system brother.

"But once you turn back the clock, everything goes back to the way it was."

"But don't we want everything to go back to the way it was?"

"It's different, if the timeline goes back to the past, but history will still develop according to the original track, which means that what is happening now will still happen even if you go back in time."

The explanation given by the system shocked the two.

"Why is this happening? No, we'll definitely avoid it! ”

"It's useless, you can't fight against the power of time, a little time back, your memories will also flow backwards, and there will be no trace of memories about this time, then history will naturally follow the original trajectory, then the Dark Monarch will still be sent out, understand?"

"So what about that...... You don't have to rewind the time card. Xiaobai said hesitantly.

"That's right, if you don't need it, you don't need it." Ruri didn't understand what was going on, but felt that even if she didn't use it, it was nothing.

"It's up to you, just save the treasure of forgetfulness." The system typed out a line of words to indicate that all the decisions are up to you.

Forget the water? Baby?

Ruri was a little curious.

But a trace of worry flashed in Xiaobai's eyes.

……

－－－－－－

The school is a pure land, like the center of the eye of the storm.

But when Ruri and Xiaobai come out, they find that the whole world seems to have been eroded by the apocalypse.

Collapsed buildings, falling billboards, pierced buildings, weeping people......

The impact of everything caught Ruri off guard.

"What's going on?" Ruri asked incredulously.

Xiaobai was a little embarrassed.

Because he saw these scenes when he was in heaven, and he was half responsible for such scenes.

When he went to seal the Dark Monarch, the battle between the two sides was in the sky, but some of the aftermath that leaked out was enough to cause serious damage to the ground.

And that's what is happening now.

……

When I first saw it, I was a little unprepared, and that kind of miserable scene was difficult for people who had not experienced disaster to accept for a while.

But Ruri also reacted immediately, thinking of the previous battle.

"Is it because of the Dark Lord?"

"Hmm."

……

Walking through the streets that look like disaster movie scenes, Ruri runs quickly in one direction.

Xiaobai followed behind her.

This direction should be the direction of Ruri's house.

“…… Don't have an accident, never have an accident! ”

Running desperately, still muttering something.

Xiaobai's perception was very keen, and he heard Ruri's words.

As soon as the eyes lit up, the entire pupil turned pure white, and the void gaze pierced everything.

"Your family is fine."

Ruri, who was running, suddenly stopped when she heard this, "Really? ”

Xiaobai nodded heavily, "Really." ”

Hearing Xiaobai's assurance, Ruri finally relaxed.

Because of the sudden occurrence of such a scene, she couldn't help but worry about her family.

"Well, let's walk back slowly."

"Hmm."

－－－－－－

The sudden vision was short-lived, but the damage was enormous.

People are not blind, the Dark Monarch does not hide his thoughts in the slightest, everything is exposed to the public eye.

There was all sorts of speculation in the news media, and various versions of the rumors began to circulate among the crowd.

More than thirty hours have passed, the school is on vacation, and the whole city is busy with disaster relief to be precise.

In this short period of time, Ruri has seen more suffering than she has seen in the past ten years.

……

"The wife next door, his husband had an accident on the train."

"This disaster has been very costly."

At the dinner table, Ruri listened to her parents without a match.

Originally, her family had always been taking care of her two younger sisters, but because of this disaster, her parents' company was naturally on holiday, so it was rare for the family to get together for a long time.

But the content of the chats lately has been so dull.

"If you could turn back the clock...... Even if you turn back the clock, what should have happened will still happen. Ruri shook her head, thinking it would be better not to think about it.

Disaster has already happened, and even if you use a timelapse card, it won't help.

According to Xiaobai's system, it is because the two of them have no ability to resist time rewind, so if time is reversed, their memories will also be rewinded, and they will no longer remember everything related to the Dark Monarch.

History will continue to follow the trajectory of the present.

……

After eating, Ruri changed into her shoes and prepared to go out.

"Sister Ruli, didn't everyone say that it was better not to go out now? After all, it's still a mess outside. ”

Sister Joo-hee said as she stood by the wall.

After all, during this time, the outside is busy with disaster relief, and it is not good to go out.

"Mess~"

The youngest sister also popped up and learned to speak.

"Just remember, I have a reason to go out."

"What, double standards."

"Double Standards~"

－－－－－－

There was a delay in communication, but the news was received.

……

Hospitals, wards.

What was originally a three-bed ward now has five beds.

Ruri and Xiaobai came to the hospital together, and they didn't bring anything.

Hospitals and wards are supposed to be quiet, but now they are a bit noisy because of the number of injured people.

Kyosuke Takasaka's face was pale, and his eyes were blank as he lay on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Probably because people are always coming in and out, the door of the ward is not closed.

Xiaobai, whose hearing is much better than that of ordinary people, heard Manami's voice from afar.

“…… It's all because of me, if it weren't for the fact that I was so scared that I couldn't walk, Xiaojing wouldn't have become like this because of saving me......"

The voice was a little choked, and when he approached, Xiaobai also saw Manami's red eyes.
