Baek Yi-hyeon turned his gaze to the sky, while mine remained fixed on the ground.

“Do you still regret not being able to save those people back then?”

“……That’s ancient history.”

“Ancient? It’s only been 7 years.”

“7 years is a long time. And there’s nothing to regret. I never had the capability to begin with.”

It felt like chewing on grains of sand.

Truthfully, I didn’t always dislike Baek Yi-hyeon. A fellow returnee, the only one of my age, naturally, I would have relied on him. Despite endless comparisons, there was a time when I genuinely liked him.

But that was in the past.

“Shina.”

Baek Yi-hyeon called out in the heavy atmosphere. Turning to him, I was greeted by his clear, bright eyes.

“……Why are you making it so gloomy?”

“Do you want to awaken?”

He brought up the topic he once raised. Time seemed to stand still. I’ve heard these words from someone else recently, but who was it…?

“Do you still want to awaken?”

When I didn’t respond, Baek Yi-hyeon pressed again. His atmosphere, gaze, and emotions suffocated me.

It felt like he was accusing me. Asking if I thought I could have saved those people if I had awakened.

Was this also my inferiority complex?

“……You.”

I forced my immobile mouth to move, and his emotions shifted towards me. My whole being felt like it was standing on edge, directed at Baek Yi-hyeon.

“Why ask such a question? And you know the thing about me disliking you was a joke, right? You’re my only friend.”

“…….”

I tried to lighten the mood, but Baek Yi-hyeon returned silence. In fact, his gaze had already drifted away from me.

That’s when I realized: when had this park become so deserted?

“Shina.”

“Yes?”

“Duck!”

As he pushed me down, something whizzed over my head. Why hadn’t I noticed it before? A foul stench engulfed me.

Baek Yi-hyeon wrapped me in his arms and rolled away. A rough sensation followed by pain enveloped me.

Griek, grieek.

There was…

“Don’t look.”

A giant skeleton wielding a scythe stood there.

Large hands covered my vision. Nausea hit me. The stench was unmistakably of corpses.

The sky reddened, the stench-filled giant skeleton, the deserted park streets.

Why hadn’t I noticed earlier?

“Ugh!”

A sharp headache struck. Baek Yi-hyeon covered my mouth, silencing us both.

“Screams-!”

“Monster!”

Desperate cries echoed around. My breathing quickened.

The scythe of the skeleton dripped with fresh blood.

Where did that blood come from?

“Ugh!”

Again, my head throbbed. Simultaneously, a voice echoed in my mind.

‘Do you really think you could have saved them?’

It wasn’t someone speaking in my head. Rather, a memory I didn’t want to recall resurfaced as a nightmare…

“Shina, wake up!”

Once more, I found myself…

Everything went black.

In an alien space, a chill grazed my skin. A few steps away, harrowing screams filled the air.

Why was I there?

‘Do you really think you could have saved those people?’

A boy with a pale face smiled. Still trapped in a child’s mindset, I wondered why he would say that.

‘Let’s go. This isn’t your place.’

The boy spoke. My mouth moved on its own. Ah, what had I replied? My youthful voice burst out. His face twisted at my response.

The conversation I had with ‘it’ in that alien space…

…was it just a nightmare from childhood, or a forgotten memory forced by becoming an adult?
The view was blood-red. A terrible headache pounded in my head, accompanied by a pungent smell and the unaccustomed scent of blood.

“Are you awake?”

“Where are we…”

“I took you to a place that seemed safe for now. Not sure if there’s anywhere truly safe in an erosion gate, though…”

Looking around at his words, I saw debris scattered everywhere. Among them was an arm with a protruding broken bone.

“Ugh!”

Nausea surged within me. What was once a beautiful park was now a horrifying scene, engulfed in flames.

Someone had said that the gate most resembling the Day of Destruction would be an erosion gate.

Everything I saw was stained red. Was it because of the flames, or the red sky?

My throat felt constricted. A faint cough escaped me, and Baek Yi-hyeon patted my back.

To think we got entangled in an erosion gate, especially on the day we went out. Such misfortune. Was this some kind of retribution?

“Shh.”

Baek Yi-hyeon, who was patting my back, raised his index finger to signal for silence. Beyond his gaze, people were running and screaming…

“No, no, don’t come. Don’t come, don’t come-!”

“……Don’t look at that.”

My vision was obscured again.

But the terrible sounds continued to reach me. Vivid screams, the sound of flesh being torn, and the thud of something falling to the ground.

“Ah, ahh…….”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

Everything around me, bearing faint traces of destruction, seemed to constrict around me. I felt like vomiting. Baek Yi-hyeon wrapped his arms around me.

“On the way here, we briefly encountered a monster……. You got hurt too. I treated the wound immediately, but you lost a lot of blood, so you might feel anemic. ……So, don’t get too agitated.”

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation

One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.

Intro:

To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.

But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.

It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.

This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.

Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.

Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.

“Let’s divorce!”

***

Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.

Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?

But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.

Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.

Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.

In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.

Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”

Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.

He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”

***

Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.

But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.

“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”

Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?

Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
