After Christmas in 2022, Hikigaya Hachiman of Sobu High School was holding a novice iron sword, and the game system in front of him was floating with a death notice of "Exit Key Disappeared".

[Asuna]: "Hachiman, is this woman the real friend you mentioned?"

[Yukino-chan]: "Hikigaya-kun, you have violated the Service Club by maintaining close relationships with a large number of women in the game."

[Yui]: "Hikigaya's marriage system report... I, I'm not particularly concerned!"

When Asuna took Hachiman's hand and ran into Yukino, Yui, Caiyu, Shizuka, Haruno, Yumiko, and Shiro-san in a cafe, she found that a small hand suddenly twisted towards her waist. Hachiman, who was in pain, looked at the love battlefield filled with invisible gunpowder with tears in his eyes: "So - why am I forced to deal with interpersonal relationships now!"

After many years, he meets Yukino Yukinoshita again, and she is still the same aloof and perfect genius girl in his memory.

But I am no longer the boy who could stand shoulder to shoulder with her.

"Hachiman, your twisted nature remains unchanged."

"Under the snow, you are still the same as before, unchanged."

Ms. Hiratsuka looked at us with satisfaction: "Since you have such a good understanding, the Service Club is now in your hands."

None of us dared to tell the teacher that what we called tacit understanding was actually an unspoken regret from eight years ago.

Just as I decided to escape completely this time, a long-lost voice suddenly rang in my mind—

"A turning point in fate has been detected. [Options] are now activated again."
