CH 86

If there are countless worlds in this world, each world is like a room in a hotel, then the worlds in each book are like small rooms in that hotel.

Life is like a journey, and I am just a traveler.

Ren Shuhan forcibly opened the door of one of those small rooms and arrived in the lobby as a guest.

He didn’t remember the details, only recalling that he arrived in the lobby in a rush, and the first and only thing he wanted to do was to find Jiang Qingyue.

Upon discovering that this was the main world controlling the worlds within the books, he didn’t look back at the original plot of his world or return to his room. Instead, he calmly browsed through the prop store.

The development of the reincarnation function was complex, so he first locked onto a breeding vessel—

Since there was no Jiang Qingyue in this world, and the Jiang Qingyue from the previous world couldn’t come out, he decided to create one himself!

The AI of the system kindly reminded him that, like Jiang Qingyue, he was also randomly generated by the system, and there were similar initial data value characters in several rooms. The only difference was that he encountered a little bug and ran out of the door.

Other characters couldn’t come out of the door, so Ren Shuhan discussed with the AI and tried to extract Jiang Qingyue’s data, create a new body for him, and then share memories with the one inside the door.

It was a very complex project.

First, he had to try extracting the data and create a character as consistent as possible. So, the system, named Wen Xin by Ren Shuhan, screened several books to try to replicate the character in those worlds. However, in each world, other forces, namely the protagonist’s halo, mysteriously appeared.

Fortunately, this halo didn’t hinder him, and he succeeded on his first try.

Ren Shuhan was born in a martial arts novel world, accustomed to wearing ancient costumes, tying up long hair, and carrying a sword. However, the first world he crossed into was a space world, making him stand out like a sore thumb. But all of this wasn’t important. What was important was that he finally found his lifelong love.

He pushed open the door and saw Jiang Qingyue standing in front of him, wearing a white coat as if conducting an experiment. He looked up at Ren Shuhan in confusion, his eyes sparkling as if he had transformed from a doll into a real person. Ren Shuhan knew that it was his Jiang Qingyue.

“Qingyue, I finally found you,” Ren Shuhan hugged him tightly and asked, “Do you still remember me?”

Jiang Qingyue: “…Of course, husband.”

Ren Shuhan was dumbfounded: “???”

Jiang Qingyue was also puzzled: “What’s wrong? Why are you wearing this outfit? Why did you suddenly come to my workplace to find me?”

It took Ren Shuhan a long time to read through the original work to realize that in this world, he had already married Jiang Qingyue!

What?! This was completely different from what he had imagined!

Jiang Qingyue was a cute little mermaid from a remote planet, and he was a high-ranking general of the alliance. The two had been childhood sweethearts and had a beautiful story of a little mermaid saving a human. They got married shortly after becoming adults and lived happily ever after…

Ren Shuhan actually liked this script very much, but something wasn’t quite right.

He was just here to test the reconstruction of Jiang Qingyue’s data, so why was he in this world???

The AI Wen Xin analyzed that this might be related to the protagonist’s halo. If this halo was bound to him, just like he had requested Jiang Qingyue, then no matter which world he entered, the protagonist gong would be constructed based on his data, and he could only live as the protagonist gong here.

Fortunately, Wen Xin was more advanced than the counterpart, and his system was also more powerful, so he could live here without being affected. He simply spent some sweet and blissful time with Jiang Qingyue.

The only regret was that Jiang Qingyue called him “husband,” and he dared not respond.

Because in his previous memories, their relationship was just childhood friends!

Suddenly becoming spouses with someone he secretly admired, Ren Shuhan was ecstatic, but at the same time, he was also uncomfortable and guilty. He felt guilty because this wife wasn’t someone he pursued himself, but someone another version of himself, whom he couldn’t remember, had won over…

“Why not synchronize memories?” Jiang Qingyue suggested.

Combining the memories from the book with his own memories would make the two Ren Shuhans from different timelines into one person.

Jiang Qingyue didn’t mind whether his husband had multiple personalities or not; instead, he found it intriguing and loved teasing him. After all, watching his husband blush when called “husband” was much more entertaining than teasing him during his heat period or forcing him to say nonsense on the bed. But he couldn’t help feeling sorry for him, seeing him always looking conflicted.

“Let’s forget about it,” Ren Shuhan didn’t agree, “My mind is a bit of a mess.”

The memories from the original world were always chaotic, like endless snowfall—sweeping it off one’s body only to be covered again. Ren Shuhan couldn’t let go, nor did he want to bury the pain of losing Jiang Qingyue in happy memories, afraid that he would forget the pain of losing Jiang Qingyue in the past.

“I want to forget, but I can’t.” Ren Shuhan rubbed Jiang Qingyue’s head.

Jiang Qingyue couldn’t understand.

“What kind of memories are they?”

When Ren Shuhan looked at him, there was infinite affection in his eyes. “Although I don’t have the right, if I could, I hope you never remember.”

Later, with the help of Wen Xin, after developing a system that could be bound to himself, Jiang Qingyue finally saw this past.

He remained silent for a long time and finally made a decision. He decided to give his beloved a period of happiness, encrypted his past memories, and let him let go of everything, living the life he truly wanted in the world of the book, doing what he wanted to do, loving whom he wanted to love, and never needing to spend the rest of his life trying to make up for anything.

Jiang Qingyue also used Ren Shuhan’s authority to leave such a setting in his system:

“The original intention of this system is to hope that the host can follow his heart and live a happy life.”

So after the second world, Ren Shuhan lost his memory.

Subsequently, as Ren Shuhan continued to go through books, the reincarnation function gradually improved, and Jiang Qingyue’s data had been collected.

Now, returning to the main world, a beautiful man successfully appeared in the breeding vessel and synchronized memories from all worlds.

Ren Shuhan successfully created a wife for himself in a parallel world.

“You really went overboard…”

Jiang Qingyue hugged him, curiously looked at his hands and feet, which were exactly the same as his previous self’s, and felt the wonder of the main world for the first time.

“This thing shouldn’t be cheap, right?” He patted the breeding vessel again, “Where did you get the money from?”

Everyone who came to the main world would automatically be equipped with a set of systems. Jiang Qingyue’s own system was also upgraded, allowing him to see the main world’s mall, indicating that this thing was a customized prop, with a high price tag.

“It’s okay, making money is easy.”

Ren Shuhan let go of him, took out his own shirt, and put it on him. It was two sizes too big, but he didn’t mind, only buttoning two buttons for him.

Jiang Qingyue: “…”

At such a tender moment, you’re still thinking about your boyfriend shirt?

The main world was a holographic game world. Although the characters were real people, they had their own data panels. Only health bars and various abilities would change, without fragile human things like body temperature, so they wouldn’t catch a cold.

Ren Shuhan sat beside him, one arm around him, and the other hand manipulating the electronic screen in front of him. He exited the mall interface and showed him the system homepage.

There were four big characters on it: Sweet Murder, the name of this game.

“This is a game world. You only need to win matches to earn coins. Life and death are up to fate on the battlefield, and the rewards are plentiful. Among them, there is a reward for transmigrating into books, and a card called the Main Character Halo Card, which means as long as you earn enough money, you can freely traverse space wormholes to the worlds in the book, enjoy life with the protagonist’s halo, and completely disregard the lives and deaths of the people in the book.”

This function has been categorized as “anti-humanitarian” by the system and has been controversial because it is truly anti-human for the people in the book world. Even in high-tech worlds like the Main Brain Research Institute, many people are secretly trying to resist it.

Fortunately, this book-traveling function is newly developed and unstable, and the price is very high. Perhaps only the richest person in this world can afford it.

Ren Shuhan squinted slightly and opened the profile of a character named “Yu Xi” in the leaderboard.

The profile showed a picture of a man wearing a mask covering half of his face, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes, slender figure, all data unknown, with only one sentence written beside it:

Ranked second in the server-wide points leaderboard.

“Do you know why he’s second?” Ren Shuhan asked in the ear of the person in his arms.

“Is it because you’re first?” Jiang Qingyue immediately guessed.

The leaderboard is public, but the name of the first place is a bunch of garbled characters, and the photo shows a person wearing all black, wearing a tightly covered black motorcycle helmet, and the figure is different from Ren Shuhan’s, not as tall as him.

“It’s me,” Ren Shuhan nodded, “After winning the first match, I bought a data modifier and a helmet to disguise myself.”

Jiang Qingyue nodded in agreement: “Hmm, well done. Now we can shake off this Yu Xi! It must be him, who has been entangling you with this book-traveling tool and protagonist halo.”

Ren Shuhan stroked his long hair, hugged him tightly, and looked at him attentively. “I only did the reincarnation test earlier to find you back.”

Jiang Qingyue obediently leaned softly in his arms, smiling embarrassedly. “Now that the reincarnation function has been tested, we can go back to our original world.”

“No, darling,” Ren Shuhan said helplessly, “You didn’t understand what I meant.”

He clicked on the ranked match button and pressed the “Ready to Start” button.

“What I meant was, I spared his life before,” Ren Shuhan looked at him gently, “So now that you’re back, you can watch me take revenge for you.”

I really couldn’t have seen any of this coming lol
