Chapter 2

In a room in a Dong-ha University hospital, Su-hyeun was changing his clothes as he was listening to his doctor.

“Please make sure to avoid any intensive exercise and come back if you feel sick again.”

“Thank you so much, doctor.”

Su-hyeun kept on buttoning his clothes. Beside Su-hyeun, Shin Su-yeong, his mother, thanked the doctor.

While they were talking, Su-hyeun looked out the window at the sight of the city beneath the hospital building and the blue sky above. With a flock of cumulus clouds slowly flying over the sky, the whole world seemed placid and peaceful.

“It’s rather awkward everytime I see it.”

It had been a month since he was hospitalized. For four weeks of recovery, he had looked out the window like this every day as he enjoyed the peaceful sight.

“This sight — it will be all gone by 2030. All that will remain is pictures and paintings.”

2018.

Everytime he checked his smartphone, he was surprised by the year and date.

Back in the past, in a different person’s body.

His death from the battle with Fafnir would occur more than 20 years later.

Now, there was only news of a monster and dungeon. The outbreak and the initial invasion of monsters had yet to happen.

“I’ve come back to the past.” However, not in Sung-in’s body, but Su-hyeun’s.
