The book is deep red in color, and the huge title "Noel Akinni" is clearly visible. The cursive characters are sharp and the tails are curled, like layers of golden lace.
There is a sunflower carving on the spine of the book, with pure white feathers surrounded by yellow pearls that look like a small sun.
This book is not thick, compared to Yueyue's book which is extremely thin. Noel's life was too short. He died in April at the age of 26, which was spring.
Su Mingan opened the book.
The text was concise, and most of it was things he already knew.
Noel was abandoned in his childhood and sent to a laboratory. After escaping, he was isolated because he was too smart and outstanding. Later, he was adopted by kind foster parents. When the Ferris wheel reached the bottom, he saw the bodies of his foster parents with his own eyes, and was caught again and thrown into the extremely painful hell of his childhood...
Being whipped, cut, bled...
This is what Noel said to him, "Did I have a happy childhood?"
Su Mingan flipped through the pages quickly; the pain that Noel had experienced could almost overflow from the text.
…
[“When I was a child, I often saw lavender all over the mountains. Every time I saw them, my heart felt very peaceful and my mood became better.” Noel said: “You must also see the beauty I saw in my childhood. You must also feel the warmth I felt in my childhood. I hope you can get everything you missed in your childhood.”]
[“If you are missing, I want to make you complete.”]
…
Was Noel's state of mind genuine at the time? Did he really mean what he said?
The answer should be "true".
But it was meaningless. Now, Noor Ajini was just a sunk cost for him.
Su Mingan decided not to dwell on these things anymore. It had wasted a lot of his time, and thinking about them further would only add to his troubles.
"Noel Ajinni." Su Ming'an stepped on the bright red blood and looked down with his head down.
The boy's golden hair settled in the pool of blood, wet and heavy, with each strand of hair dyed dark red, like the feathers of a dead bird.
Su Mingan squatted down and said softly:
"Noor Akinni."
In a trance, he seemed to hear Noel's reply.
……Um.
"I really want to live." said Su Mingan.
The cold corpse seemed to be responding to him.
……I know.
"I've always... really wanted to live." Su Ming'an said.
The bloodless blond head seemed to have opened its mouth and was speaking.
...Yeah. I know...I know...
"So." Su Ming'an stood up and let the boy's body drift away with the ripples of the black water, getting farther and farther away from him...
"Bye now."
A crisp farewell.
The black water was surging, splashing against his legs and feet. He stood there, gazing into the distance.
The golden hair went farther and farther away, and gradually disappeared between the layers of bookshelves.
Until Noel's figure completely disappeared, a thought suddenly popped up in Su Mingan's mind -
——"Is this still a river that never stops flowing?"
The golden tributaries drifted away into the distance, and finally they no longer intersected.
Su Mingan quickly brushed aside these thoughts about Noel, lowered his head and quickly flipped through the book, skimming through Noel's life experience. In the past, he would definitely put himself in his friend's shoes and feel the pain he had experienced. But now, Noel's past pain, torture, and nightmares... had nothing to do with him.
He could no longer empathize with an… "enemy".
After turning to the end of "Noel Ajinni", Su Mingan saw the beginning of the eleventh world:
…
[The first moment he entered the dungeon, Noel felt an extremely obvious sense of rejection—the original owner of this body was rejecting him.]
[“My name is Phoenix, and I am an ancient mythical beast that is about to be born. You, the invader from another world, leave my body immediately!” the original owner said proudly.]
[“Ancient mythical beast?” Noel looked at the nutrient solution soaking his body: “…Aren’t you just an egg? How dare you threaten me?”]
[Noel sighed inwardly, how could he be possessed by such an identity? Even his limbs are not fully developed. His situation is really miserable. If I had known this, I might as well choose a strawberry tribe. I wonder if Su Mingan is the queen of the insect tribe or something like that. I really want to see.]
[The two sides argued for a while, and finally reached an agreement: both sides share this body. Whoever is tired will take a rest. ]
[Phoenix suggested that he could introduce the Lord of the End of All Things to Noel.]
[In the dream, Noel met the Lord of the End of All Things, and the two ate French fries together. The Lord of the End of All Things gave Noel a red blade, which was called the "IP Modification Blade". As long as he stabbed Su Mingan with this blade, Su Mingan would lose his player identity and Noel could take his place.]
[The Lord of the End of All Things tempted: "In the past, you were second. Others saw Su Mingan and rarely saw you, as if you were just a supporting role to Su Mingan. Don't you want to be the 'protagonist' for once?"]
[Noel shook his head firmly: "Although I long for a new world, I don't want to stab my best friend. I don't want this sharp blade."]
[The Lord of the End of All Things said meaningfully: "Well, this is the first time after all, so it's normal for you to refuse. However, as the number of times increases, as you understand more and more that your ideal is far away, as you become more and more desperate... you will do this sooner or later. I'm waiting for the time when you are willing to take the blade."]
