This Event takes place in the following locations:
Sensei is awoken the next morning by Ayane, who nervously tells him to get up as things outside have changed. Stepping out from his tent, he finds the previously surrealist scenery has been replaced with the normal sky, clouds, and sun – Despite this supposed return to normalcy though, Kumon-mi is still missing all its people, at least according to Ayane's quick search. Beginning to fear that the world has been improperly reset, or some other unforeseen incident has occurred, Sensei begins to panic, becoming increasingly snappy and pessimistic. Ayane's cautious optimism is enough to help ground him, though, and the two take off into town in hopes that Maya or anyone else will soon appear.
The two walk through the empty halls of Kumon-mi High, both unsettled. Ayane herself finds the empty halls extremely surreal, having grown so used to the expected chaos of the apocalypse that she's uncomfortable with something so normal. Sensei points out how even this is abnormal, a sentiment that makes the exhaustion of being pulled from incident to incident settle in. She quips that perhaps she is the "unluckiest girl in the world", something both of them agree Maya wouldn't snap back to with her trademark cold wit. They reflect on the last words they said to Maya, or at least try to, as Sensei cannot remember what they were.
Now in the streets, Sensei suggests they immediately head for the school dorms, as that is where Maya was last time something like this happened. Ayane instead suggests they look around other places in Kumon-mi, citing the small possibility that other people were trapped as they were last night. While he finds this unlikely, he obliges.
Unfortunately, there is no one in town no matter where they go, and after a stop at Koi Cafe they admit the idea was ridiculous. As Sensei gets ready to head to the dorms, Ayane hesitates, revealing that the "voices" she mentioned hearing last night have repeatedly warned her not to let him go there. He reminds her of her assertion that these voices are nonsense and continues the walk regardless.
The outside of the dorms is empty; Sensei assures himself that Maya will be inside. Upon entering her room and finding nothing, though, he loses hope completely, admitting aloud that Maya's gone. Having sensed he'd break down like this, Ayane immediately tries to calm him down, but he snaps at her, asking if it's wrong for him to freak out when he might never see Maya again. She tells him it is, and that he'll need to fight if he wants to make it out of his safety room for real.
Sensei snaps back to his safety room, but only for a moment, as he soon "wakes up" for real and finds himself atop the roof with Maya. She reveals to him that the process for her being reset has already started, as her memories are beginning to fade away and she's lost all concept of time. Breaking down, Sensei tries to convince himself that all of this is fake, but the reality of the situation dawns on him more and more. Left with no options, he enjoys his final moments with Maya as best he can, promising to fix her memories once the world resets no matter how long it takes.
Maya tells Sensei she loves him one final time before disappearing completely.
