I returned to our palace with flowers in my hands. Taking a fresh air is good, I finally feel better after talking with Hendrix and smell the flowers. I opened the door to my room and see Ethan was lying on the couch, covering his upper face with his arm.

I placed the flowers on the table and crouch down beside his couch. I wonder what did he talk about when he was with Calliope?

Both of them seem to have a deep connection together. I have to admit I was jealous of her. I shouldn't be a selfish person.

I stood up and kiss his head with a small smile spreading across my face. Whatever they were talking about, I only wished to stay by his side...not wanting to separate from each others.

Soon, I felt asleep while watching him sleep.

Moonlight slowly creep it way down inside their room, her hair was glittering in the darkness thanks to the moon. Ethan twirled her hair which shine brighter than a star. Because of her star magic, Stella's hair always shine whenever a light of the full moon met her hair.

'How long has it been since I got to saw her hair shine like this...?'

Ethan lifts her up and place her on the bed. Ethan sighed, watching the moon from the window.

Calliope was right, if he doesn't do anything, his wife will die...but...how? He's the crown prince of a whole empire, but yet...he can't even save his own wife.

"That's why I told you to be careful...you were also the one who declared you won't fall in love because she's just a creation..."

"Shut up...I don't care..." Ethan growled and the voice inside head.

"Player, remember, if you fail to save her, you only have two options from now on. Move to another land or log out. When you returned back into time, it wasn't a bug but it was because of Stella Sapphire's magic herself. To think that you were affected by her magic too, I'm surprised. The boss were also surprised."

He remembered clearly after he died, he was supposed to log out and play another character but when he heard her faint laughter and saw her blurry smile, it was like the time was stopped. He likes her but he knew she wasn't real, all he did was gave a game character a false hope of love.

He couldn't summon the guide, after hearing her faint cry and laughter, all he could see after he was trapped inside the game world, was his previous room of his time when he was Ethan Winchester.

He thought it was a bug and had told the guide to fix but they couldn't. He tried to be natural as possible but when he saw her again, alive, he unconsciously reached out for her, abandoned the rules he made.

The events changed, it doesn't go the same way as before. His wife was changing. His little brother, Edgar was still the same.

The war was still happening, everything was still the same to Ethan. But everything which was happened on Stella were different.

It was clear that Stella was also from the past. She must have noticed some changes inside him. It's ironic how the self-proclaimed game said they're the number at detecting bug and any changes inside the game just realised Stella was the one who reversed the time.

She reversed the time, but she brought consequences with her. Every path that she took have consequences and changes.

"Leave me alone, I'll save her, even if it cost my life..."

"Even if she's just a program? I hope you won't become just like you from the last time..."

"I don't care if she's a program, I love her, even if she wanted to part from me, I'll let her go...I won't be selfish from before."

The voice inside his head went silent, Ethan knew it has already logged out. He went to the bed and lay down beside Stella and hug her tight.

"Even if this is a fake world, you're my only reality..."
