### Summary
After enduring a multi-decade time loop that has left him psychologically shattered, office worker Cheolsu has abandoned his cynical "villain arc" and a failed attempt to save only his companion, Yumi. Now armed with the grim understanding that he must save everyone or no one, his mission has been fundamentally re-contextualized by a paradigm-shifting discovery. Alongside his team of gifted classmates on the asteroid "Rama," he has learned it is not a natural celestial body but a hollow, artificial weapon, implying Earth is the target of a deliberate attack. This revelation explains the disproportionate destruction of his past failures and pivots the story from a natural disaster scenario to a confrontation with an unknown intelligent force. Reader speculation is now rampant, with theories ranging from an alien invasion to an attack orchestrated by future humans or even a future version of Cheolsu himself. As the plot delves deeper into science fiction, fans express both excitement for the new direction and lingering distrust for certain team members like Taekhu, all while acknowledging the immense PTSD Cheolsu carries from experiencing over a century of repeated apocalypses.
