Mc and ml both died. Mc was in so much pain he started imagining a happy life, and dragged ml's soul with him. But since ml needed to escape, he gave him the book(which contained everything that happened to them) . Thats how mc got returned into current timeline, in the cage. But ml only got returned after chapter 25? Thats why his attitude changed abit..... Is what i am getting, sorry if im wrong. I already posted smth like this already but it got deleted becoz i forgot to flag it as spoiler ig.
