“Wait! We’ll take those people with us~”

It happened all in an instant. As if they had come through a gateway from the sky, they appeared out of nowhere, took Solene and Terry by the hand, and vanished right before Mono’s eyes.

Solene opened her eyes. In this strange, unfamiliar space, all she could see were Terry and… Pluto and… Plu- …huh?

Solene closed her eyes, and opened them again. Her eyes weren’t injured. There were two Plutos. But their genders were different. This was…

“What the… Am I looking at Plutos from Vesta and Skadi?”

“Yep, that’s right!”

“Yeah, exactly.”

Solene was confused. That wasn’t even the problem. They were already destined to accept the approaching planet and face death, but these people had suddenly brought Terry and Solene here.

“What are you doing?”

“What?”

“Why am I here? Why did you suddenly show up, kidnap me, and bring me to this strange place? What are you doing?”

“I can explain that for-”

“We’re all about to DIE, what more do you want from me?!”

Solene’s heart sank. She would rather have died. She felt that if she couldn’t avoid it, she might as well try to enjoy it, just as Mono. No matter how relentlessly she researched or how intently she stared at the monitor screen, nothing came of it. Solene tried her best. She did everything she possibly could. That’s what Solene believed. She urged Terry, who was exhausted, to somehow stay focused and devote himself to the research. That’s how serious she was. After all, the survival of humanity was at stake.
