Hey, stand up! Or are you giving up just like that?"
"Ohhh, where did all that enthusiasm go? You don't even need me to tell you, but I will tell you. This is the last time you're able to go back. It's not like you're going to change anything or be able to do anything about the Demon Lord. And, I just remembered: seeing your lover and the people you loved die ninety-nine times. I guess you might have gone mad, but you're still okay."
An unknown entity said from the shadows.
"Shut up, you bastard! It's not like you know anything about me!" the hero said, shoving himself up from his lying position.
The surroundings were vast and utterly dark, the only sound the faint slosh of cold water on the floor,
reflecting no light, like a stagnant, endless ocean. A faint, dark entity glided through it.
"Ohh, I've seen enough to know about you. Anyway, this is the last time you'll be able to go back, but this time, at least try not to save the world, but yourself."
"Talking like you know it all again. Do you know what it's like to lose someone over and over again? Do you? So stop talking like a big shot!"
Ding!

"You see, I will save the world this time, and the Demon Lord won't be able to do a thing about it!"
"I see, all the flattery is getting to you. But I doubt you'll be able to save the world, hero. This is a parting gift."
