Why did I go through all this trouble of turning back time to get here?

The answer is simple: to change the premise of the story itself. To obtain the future I want, not the one the goddess or the emperor wants, I had to completely destroy the plans they had made from the very beginning.

The problem, though, is that I couldn’t just pick a side—either the goddess’s or the emperor’s. If I went along with the emperor’s desires, he would eventually rise to the position of a new god. On the other hand, if I sided with the goddess, the world would turn into a monotonous place devoid of any fun or excitement.

Moreover, the worst part about the goddess's world is that I wouldn’t even be in it. The goddess plans to take all the power I possess and use it for herself. In other words, my very existence would be erased from this world.@@novelbin@@

I wouldn’t disappear completely—at least, my soul or memories wouldn’t vanish, as it seems my past remains intact—but what I really want right now is a happy ending in this world, with everyone around me.

Time is of the essence in this world. I can already feel it rushing by. Of course, if time truly rewound as much as I made it, that would break my mental state.

Even so, I don’t like the idea of time moving on without my control. Especially when I lose focus—when I “wake up,” and there’s this weird sensation where my memories are forcibly pieced together, like they don’t quite fit. That feeling is the worst.

The issue is that I’m the only one who feels this way.

Claire, who has inherited some of my abilities, and Alice, who retains her memories because of the fake Alice, feel time moving naturally.

Even when I reverse time, I can only go back to the parts of it that I’m sure are “my memories.” I can’t access the parts where memories are fuzzy or feel artificially inserted.

On the other hand, Claire, who remembers things “properly,” can reverse time in areas that I can't.
