I don't really remember all the details bcs i read the novel some time ago, but the manhwa didn't really tell all the details. At the war, he was hoping that he can come back and bcs he has a family there. It was quite the large reason why he hold on. He didn't really like the girl as their time spend together was not much but it was the thought that after the bloody war he can come back home and have a different life, that kept him going. In the novel, his state of mind was really not good after killing his wife and her family. His wife told him that she waited for him, but he never sent anything back to her, so she just can't wait around for him and die. She lashes out and MC didn't really believe it as he send the money back all those years, so he deleted from earth anyway. Then MC went to the village head and found out that the money was taken by him, none of the money ever reach MC wife, so he deleted the village head family. Cmiiw, MC come back not after 3 or 5 years, it was way more than that. So people just assumed he's dead. Even if the wife received the money then what? She have no children from MC and no man to protect herself. The choice of marrying another man was still there even if MC money did end up in her hands. The reason for his madness massacre seem to make a lot of sense when we understand that MC felt betrayed that all this time he actually didn't have to war. That his reason to kept going in hellish times was all a joke. It felt like none of it matter anymore. So yeah, manhwa didn't really depict his distraught after coming back home. All we see is, he saw his wife married another man, he got angry, then killed the entire village.
