On the Sorrowful Planet, inside the Curio toy "Cotton Candy Car," Noah listened to the boy's plea for help after his breakdown, his eyes filled with sorrow as well.
A powerful Sleeper possessed not only the power to put people into peaceful sleep, but also extraordinary empathy.
Noah had originally believed that the Cotton Candy Car he had delivered, with its magical power, could solve this world's problem.
Now, however, it seemed that would not be enough. Sweet cotton candy could gradually help people break free from their sorrow, but the Ghost Images that could not be eradicated spread more sorrow like a virus.
Noah took a deep breath and used his power to soothe the broken-down boy before saying softly,
"Hold on. Sorrow will eventually leave. Let me first..."
Noah intended to ask Tang Qi for help.
Before he had set out, Tang Qi had also instructed him that he could do so if he encountered an accident he could not resolve.
But just then, Noah had only just prepared to pray when he suddenly sensed something.
Noah immediately turned and looked toward the front of the Cotton Candy Car, where a crack suddenly appeared in space.
Grayish-white colors surged out, and a figure that instantly made the area cold emerged.
She appeared to be human as well, except her body was three meters tall. An entire piece of black cloth, seemingly made of some special material—soft and icy—had become intricate clothing draped over her body. Her hands and part of her chest were exposed, revealing skin so pale that every blood vessel showed through.
Her hair was black and frizzy, while her features were exceptionally balanced, ordinary, and tranquil.
Noah was immediately drawn to her eyes. They were as dark and profound as an abyss, cold and silent.
