Chapter 2: A Second Life Filled with Regrets

The era known as the Western Calendar was said to have ended in the year 2348. The Earth Calendar marked that year as its first. Around that time, Earth plunged into civil war, dragging its colonies—other colonized planets—into the conflict.
 
Pollution from the wars rendered Earth uninhabitable, forcing humanity to terraform Mars, the Moon, and other colonies to survive. While waiting for Earth’s purification, they fought over hegemony, and the wars continued.
 
Records from that period are severely fragmented and ambiguous. Many scholars believe civilization temporarily regressed, with interstellar communication … Read the rest

What happened to the Earth Empire after she died? Was it destroyed as she feared?
 
Or did that [Genius Strategist] somehow manage to save it? That was something she could no longer know.

When Lilian woke up as if it were part of her usual routine, she found herself in the body of her eighteen-year-old self. A nostalgic, plush, luxurious bed. Fancy dolls lined up around her.
 
And a photo of her first love, Weltall Gandemann, conspicuously displayed in an eye-catching spot.
 
“Surely not…”
 
This was her room from when she was eighteen. Her rich blond-pink hair cascaded down to her waist, and the supple, youthful skin she prided herself on was unmistakably her own from those … Read the rest

Prologue: Admiral Lillian Luzor – Age 79

 

 

The Earth Empire’s 109th Patrol Fleet was, as its name suggested, composed of nothing but flimsy patrol boats—vessels so pitiful they couldn’t even compare to the smallest destroyers. They were little more than glorified sailboats in space, each barely 100 meters long at best. Their armaments were equally pathetic: a few small, single-barreled heavy-particle cannons (three at most, but even one was considered sufficient), and their primary weapons—three torpedo launchers at the bow—had ammunition reserves so meager they might as well have been tears from a sparrow.

These patrol boats were … Read the rest

Cars zoomed on the streets. Life continued its dance. Seasons changed.sChallenges were faced. Lessons were learned. Memories created. And amidst it all, a simple truth remained: life is a beautiful … Read the rest
