Their romance storyline only begins on the second playthrough

After assisting the goddess Lilith in eliminating the twelve gods and unifying the fragmented human divine kingdom, Rhodes watched her ascend to godhood and then uninstalled the game.
"That's not how dating games work! The reason I chose the path of helping her ascend to godhood was to nurture her, max out her affection level, and then be together properly."
"But the problem is that, in the end, even if we forget about becoming a god, she not only won't let me be with her, but she also won't let me find anyone else. What exactly does she want?"
When Rhodes, unable to comprehend the proud and aloof girl, actually transmigrated to the game's alternate world, [Elchia], returning to the moment when they were initially imprisoned by the villainous demon witch, he realized he had to make a better choice to change the future—
[Outer God Seed]: As an extraterrestrial being, you can devour the divine seeds of all gods and hide among believers.
Looking at his awakened abilities, Rhodes declared:
"Strive to become a god on your own! Slay everything in your path!"
---
The proud and reserved girl never managed to say "I'll definitely say I love you next time" until her beloved died.
Therefore, when she returned to the moment she first met the boy, her heart seemed to stop.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... This time, I can't let you down again because I'm too cowardly. Well, it's my turn to stand up straight..."
“Wait, something’s not right. Rhodes, Rhodes… he’s so calm. What’s going on?” Lilith asked absentmindedly.
Everything was rewritten. Even Lilith, who was not favored, and those "cats who were once turned away" all went to the battlefield with memories in their hearts.
