Starting Over in Solaris

At Star Torch Academy, Mo Bai had once come across a passage in a novel:

Life rarely went your way. Ordinary people weren't the only ones who hit walls; even a "Dragon-Ao" or "Protagonist" born with a silver spoon in their mouth often did.

It was a commonplace truth in every world, one almost everyone knew.

But what if, one day, the world before your eyes changed beyond recognition and everything familiar vanished?

When all the things you used to dismiss returned to you like phantoms, would you miss them, whether they had been good or bad?

Mo Bai didn't like grand, empty questions with no story behind them. He had glanced at the passage once and put the book back on the shelf.

At the time, he had thought the questions were stupid.

What did you do if you were thrown into a new environment?

You worked to adapt. Then you survived.

As for missing the past?

People had feelings. They grew attached to old things. Of course they missed them.

So he had thought that question was stupid, too.

Besides...

In a world with Rover, even if the sky fell, she would find a way to save it.

She was a hero, a great hero whose golden eyes held an undying flame of hope.

That was right. When the time came, an ordinary person like him only needed to stand behind Rover and cheer her on alongside her other fans.

That was how it should have been...

"Do you want to go back?"

"What do you mean?"

The Goddess's sudden question made Mo Bai, who had only just relaxed, tense up at once.

That tiny reaction brought a faint, private smile to her eyes.

"Exactly what I said~ Do you want to go back to Solaris?"
