Chapter 41-2
As a result of this incident, Edna was certain of one thing.
"Baek Yu-Seol definitely underwent regression for Eisels sake."
In the original novel, Eisel and Mayuseong shared their feelings, leading to the destruction of the world and a sad ending.
However, what if there was an unknown extra story?
Maybe, it would be something like this.
Baek Yu-Seol, an unnamed character, loved Eisel all his life, but never received affection in return until the moment when the world was about to end.
Then, he chose to regress to change everything...
"Is it too far-fetched?"
Having watched too many romance stories, strange thoughts kept coming to her mind.
However, in this incident, Baek Yu-Seol created a stage solely for Eisel, something that no one else could do.
How much time had Baek Yu-Seol spent preparing for this day?
In truth, Edna would be horrified to learn that the content might have been made up on the spot through Sentient Spec, but since there was no way for her to know this, her strange misunderstanding only grew deeper.
"It's unrequited love."
Regression for the sake of fulfilling love, and for creating a world where the loved one could live happily ever after.
At the end of the regression, even if one's existence was completely forgotten by the loved one.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">Ahh, that's too much
For some reason, she felt a foreign emotion and tightness in her chest. She couldn't believe that she was witnessing a story with a sad ending in real life, rather than in a drama or novel.
Baek Yu-Seol said he wanted to live, which probably meant he didn't want to be forgotten.
So, she made a decision.
She would find a way to prevent Baek Yu-Seol from disappearing from everyone's memories in his final moments.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">I must find a way.
Then, all of a sudden, something came to her mind.
It was the "Divine Spirit Gate Key."
This item might not have been an ancient artifact like the equipment of his original character, but it was one of the rarest items that only high-level players could obtain.
The key could open the portal to the realm of "Divine Spirits," but its sole function was limited to unlocking a specific dungeon.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">Will its function be downgraded?
He waited in anticipation.
[System review complete.]
[Reward issued.]
"Great!" He exclaimed with delight.
The item was granted in its entirety, with no signs of being downgraded or altered. While someone attempting to exploit a System loophole might have been disappointed, the item was rare to come by regardless.
Reflecting on his purchase, he realized that the Divine Spirit Gate Key was better known among players as a secondary character training item.
It was a ticket to a dungeon that only became available after reaching the highest level, and its usefulness declined as players progressed.
However, it was also a dungeon that provided an abundance of EXP without much difficulty, earning it the nickname Bounty hunting ground for lower-level characters.
Baek Yu-Seol had obtained this item for his secondary character training, but had never used it before.
Little did he knew that one day, he would have the opportunity to use it in real life.
But first, he had to find a way to get there...
"How am I going to go out?"
He pondered, but soon realized that the incident had led to stricter conditions for leaving the academy, making it harder to go out whenever he wanted.
"Sigh..."
Baek Yu-Seol ran his hand through the hair, feeling helpless.
Suddenly, he remembered how he used to go out in the video game where there were similar constraints.
"What did I do then?"
The answer was simple, and didn't require much thought.
"Club."
Yes, he had joined a club that allowed him to teleport in front of the magic academy.
He smiled as the memory came flooding back.
