(Listen, I am very grateful to 'Liu Jin Yu Shui Yue', 'Ru Zhen Qin Lin', 'Panda!', 'Bing·Yue Ying', 'Qi Guan Xuan Qi', 'Er Ci Yuan Women De Meng', and 'Yue Shang Jiu Tian Luo Yin Hua' for their generous donations!)
(The next chapter will be about the next world. Can you guess which world it will be?)
Even with his eyes tightly closed, Noah could clearly feel it.
In front of him was a white so intense that it could penetrate his eyelids and enter his vision.
His mind seemed to be in a state of confusion, unable to function properly.
His body felt as if it had entered a world of water, with no sense of direction.
Noah could only understand with his barely functioning consciousness that he seemed to be in a state of weightlessness, his body uncontrollably spinning and floating, as if moving up and down with the waves, a very strange sensation.
Noah himself did not know how long this feeling lasted.
Perhaps, his confused mind was no longer able to distinguish the concept of time, and it might have kept him in this state until he grew old or even died.
Therefore, when the familiar sensation of standing on solid ground was transmitted through his feet to his confused mind, causing his mind to jolt and gradually start functioning again, Noah actually felt a faint sense of satisfaction, a feeling that being able to stand on solid ground was a kind of happiness.
Immediately, Noah opened his eyes.
"Ugh..."
The first thing that entered Noah's vision was a white so intense that it could hurt the eyes, causing Noah to involuntarily raise one hand in front of him, squinting his eyes until he adapted to the intense white light, then lifting his head to look forward.
Unfortunately, there was nothing in front of Noah.
No objects.
No environment.
No sky.
No ground.
Not even a boundary line entered Noah's field of vision.
This was a world with nothing in it.
Except for a white so intense that it could hurt the eyes, there was nothing here.
Noah seemed to be floating, yet he had the sensation of standing on solid ground, as if standing on an invisible surface, with everything in his field of vision being white.
Except for white, there was nothing.
However, this empty, desolate world made Noah's body tremble, as if he had fallen into a soft cotton, feeling very comfortable, like a baby returning to the womb.
This feeling made Noah widen his eyes.
Because this was the same feeling that only occurred when he entered the 'White Dream'!
"——!"
At that moment, the remaining dazed consciousness of Noah also completely cleared up, making Noah realize.
He was not really in a dream!
The place was still the one Noah had seen more than once in his dreams.
But this time, this place gave Noah a sense of reality, without the illusory feeling of a dream, allowing Noah to instantly understand what had happened.
The fact proved that the 'White Dream' was real!
Now, Noah had finally come to this 'dream' that had almost accompanied him throughout his life!
"If so..."
Noah slightly clenched his fist, lifted his head, and looked in the direction that should have been the sky.
Then, Noah saw.
Feathers...
Feathers falling from the sky...
Feathers suspended in bubbles, falling from the sky...
Feathers covered and enveloped by a white glow, suspended in bubbles, falling from the sky...
"Clang—Clang—Clang—Clang—!"
As if welcoming Noah, the 'feathers' released a dazzling glow, surrounding Noah like little birds, happily circling around him.
"Buzz—!"
A strong light radiated from each 'feather'.
Bathed in that light, Noah felt a sense of 'joy'.
It was exactly the same as when Noah obtained the 'feather' on the Wolf Island!
The difference was that the light emanating from the 'feathers' circling around him was much brighter than the 'feather' Noah had obtained, and the emotions contained within were also much stronger.
Additionally, the 'feathers' in front of him were complete.
The 'feather' Noah had obtained was incomplete.
"Wait!" Noah suddenly realized.
"Incomplete?"
If he remembered correctly, Noah recalled that in the 'White Dream', besides these perfect 'feathers', there were also many incomplete 'feathers'.
As if knowing Noah's thoughts, the 'feathers' surrounding Noah suddenly scattered.
Then, from the white sky, more 'feathers' began to fall.
These were incomplete and dull, almost lifeless compared to the previous 'feathers'!
These incomplete and dull 'feathers' also surrounded Noah, circling around him and emitting a much dimmer light compared to the previous 'feathers'.
From this light, Noah could only feel one emotion.
——'Sadness'.
Like a child who had been hurt and was crying to their family.
"This..." Noah couldn't help but reach out and hold one of the incomplete 'feathers', his eyes flickering, and he said involuntarily.
"How can I help you?"
Almost as soon as Noah's words fell, a light bloomed from Noah's body.
An equally incomplete 'feather' floated out from his body and came to Noah's face.
"Buzz—!"
The incomplete 'feathers' surrounding Noah all trembled as if excited, then began to circle around the 'feather' that had floated out from Noah's body.
After a while, one of the 'feathers' seemed to tremble with joy, approaching the 'feather' that had also trembled.
"Clang—!"
In the next second, the gaps of the two equally incomplete 'feathers' perfectly fit together, and with a strange sound, they restored to a perfect state.
"Buzz—!"
The restored 'feather' emitted a light that was incomparably stronger than before, releasing emotions of 'excitement', 'gratitude', 'excitement', 'ecstasy', and more to Noah, and flew to Noah's cheek, rubbing against it in a very human-like manner.
Incredibly, Noah felt a sense of relief and joy rise in his heart, as if he had become one with the 'feathers', stroking the 'feather' that was rubbing against his cheek and saying understandingly.
"I understand. As long as I can find your missing parts, you can restore to your original state, right?"
"Buzz—Buzz—Buzz—!"
Around him, the still incomplete 'feathers' all trembled in agreement with Noah's words.
"But..." Noah frowned.
"Where should I go to find your missing parts?"
The 'feather' that was rubbing against Noah's cheek suddenly flew to his face, then collided with his forehead.
In the next moment, some fragments of memory from the 'feather' flooded into Noah's mind, revealing a fact that almost made him cry out in surprise.
"You are all individual worlds?!"
Yes!
The complete 'feathers' in front of him were all complete worlds!
Except for the world of 'Fairy Tail', the rest were all individual worlds!
In other words, the world of 'Fairy Tail' where Noah originally was, was among these 'feathers'!
And now, Noah had left the world of 'Fairy Tail' and arrived at another strange place!
The 'Between Worlds'!
The special space where all the worlds existed!
As for the incomplete 'feathers', they were all broken worlds!
Their other parts were lost in those complete worlds!
If Noah wanted to restore these 'feathers' to their original state, he had to enter each world and find the missing parts of the broken worlds!
He had to save each world?
Noah's head began to spin.
However, the continuous release of 'sadness' from the surrounding 'feathers' touched Noah's heart, making his expression uncertain.
Finally, Noah sighed deeply.
"The other worlds... huh?"
