There was one person he really wanted to see one last time.
He still has a lot to do.
I was not able to spend a peaceful time with that person during the Fuyuan Festival.
I didn't get to hear that person's complete piano solo.
I never heard that person say words of surrender like “Please don’t call me grandpa anymore”.
He failed to...walk into the spring he longed for the most.
He didn't want to accept this cold ending.
"Noah, how can you be so selfish? How can you be afraid of death?"
This was the sound he heard coming out of his own mouth, but the desire to survive was like overgrown weeds. He didn't want to die here alone. It was too cold and too lonely.
"grandfather."
His crazy desire to survive kept him sane. He suddenly started to shout.
Although he knew that even if he kept calling, his grandfather would not come, as it was too dangerous here. Moreover, he had sealed the iron door with his own hands.
He just...didn't want to give up on love.
When people have "love", they can burst out with infinite power. In the news, a thin woman was able to lift a heavy truck to save her child.
Because he sensed the emotion called "love" in his heart, he miraculously maintained a certain amount of thinking even though his sanity was collapsing.
He opened his eyes and reached out towards the sealed iron door.
"Master, Master." He opened his mouth and called out.
But there was no one in the room except him, and no one could reply to him.
The iron gate was cold, and outside there was nothing but the sound of the mechanical army banging on metal.
Like a worm without legs, Noah crawled forward bit by bit, his blood becoming the secreted fluid for movement. As he crawled, he left a long bloody trail on the icy white ground.
The scattered white feathers were like a thick bloody carpet, and blood gushed out of his mouth.
…
[If I had known that calling you grandpa would bring you back, I would have called you grandpa every day. Grandpa grandpa grandpa——]
"grandfather."
He crawled, his own voice echoing in the room.
I could hear the God sighing softly, and He didn't seem to say anything sarcastic anymore.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandpa..." His voice was mixed with tears.
[I’m afraid that if I don’t call you grandpa one day, you will disappear! ]
[Grandpa, don't jump off the edge of the world, let's go together, okay? ]
…
It's reached its limit.
Whether it was his brain, physical strength, blood loss, or resonance, he had already reached his limit. He had accomplished the impossible task, and under the precise calculation of the gods, he had reached a level "above his own limit".
Before his eyes was a dreamlike light and shadow of recollection.
"grandfather."
[Grandpa, can we go to the bird show, Grandpa...]
[Grandpa, if you don't know how to play a musical instrument, I can teach you, as long as you talk to me, Grandpa...]
【grandfather,】
【grandfather……】
…
At this moment, the flapping sound of wings in his ears suddenly disappeared.
A white bird covered in blood suddenly fell in front of his eyes with a bang, and its blood splashed on his nose with a warm touch. It was the last surviving white bird.
It called hoarsely at him and flapped its red wings, scraping his blood-stained golden hair, as if it wanted to caress him, but the intimate light in its eyes quickly faded, and before he could reach out his hand, it was silent.
The white birds were all dead, the scarlet hose had killed them all.
Under the dome, the blazing white light flickered. It was very quiet around me.
The scarlet hoses did not pierce Noah's body, but stayed where they were, allowing him to crawl towards the iron gate, as if the gods were respecting his last effort.
“…”
In fact, he didn't know where he wanted to climb to. Outside the iron gate was a cold mechanical army; further away was eternal night; further away was nothing but eternal night.
Even if they get out of one cage, people in the two-dimensional world are still trapped in another cage, and the sunshine and rain are extremely far away from them.
However, he didn't want to lie on the cold floor like a corpse. He wanted to try his best to fly forward, even if he just had to drag his heavy body close to the ground.
"grandfather."
He continued to call out intermittently.
Those who are confined to the two-dimensional world will never have a future.
But he thought, if a sunflower sees the sun, how could it not grow in its direction? If a moth sees a light, how could it ignore it?
He never changed the ridiculous name of "Grandpa" because he was afraid of seeing the nightmare coming. He was extremely afraid of losing the people around him, so he was so scared that he chose to ignore his reason and deceived himself with a ridiculous reason, thinking that as long as he called him that, Grandpa would not leave.
——But, God.
He suddenly wanted to pray to God.
——If there really is a god who protects the ruined world, can he be given one last chance?
- Although he has always been an impious believer, can a person who has no past and no future and is extremely short-lived, get even a little favor from the legendary gods?
——If he is destined not to see spring, can he see the person who can bring spring back... on the last night of winter?
…
“Bang!”
Suddenly, there was a loud bang from the iron gate.
Noah fell to the ground, his consciousness blurred.
An S-shaped blood trail was left behind him. He crawled a full thirty meters from the central Dawn System to the edge of the iron gate, with both legs soaked in blood.
