[Proceed with caution: melodramatic angst!! The main world is a sweet happy ending, but the side stories are extremely angsty]
After Jiang Wuyi died, he entered a quick transmigration world and was transferred to the "This Person Must Die" department.
In short, the "Must Die Department."
Here, Jiang Wuyi had to make sure his character died for a good reason within the allotted time.
And thanks to Little Green River's positive-energy rules, suicide was strictly forbidden.
Jiang Wuyi figured it out soon enough.
The protagonist was young and reckless, and also the chosen one of Heaven. If he just kept picking fights with the protagonist, couldn't he die any way he wanted?
So he erased his memories and entered the small worlds, only to become the protagonist's most heart-wrenching white moonlight.
[The Young Genius and the Terminally Ill Failure]
An outer-sect disciple with little talent got the chance of a lifetime.
He had the nerve to trick a young genius with amnesia and steal a few days of blissful romance with him.
When the truth came to light, he was driven away in disgrace. But no one knew that by then, he was already terminally ill.
[The Little Fool and the Third Prince]
The young master of the Jiang family was precocious and famous throughout the capital by the age of eight. He fell into the water while saving the Third Prince, then burned with fever for three days and nights, leaving him a fool.
The Third Prince devoted himself to caring for him for many years, until he finally lost patience after the other man's latest blunder left him humiliated.
"A Yi, you were eight when I was eight. But I'm almost twenty-eight now, and you're still eight. I've waited for you so, so long. I can't wait anymore."
The Third Prince never imagined those would be the last words he ever said to the little fool.
In the depths of winter that year, the little fool fell into the raging river while trying to retrieve the jade pendant the Third Prince had given him.
The Third Prince, who cared more than anyone about his dignity, burst into tears in front of the coffin.
[The Clan Leader from a Broken Engagement Story and the Dragon-Proud Protagonist]
When he was young, the Dragon-Proud Protagonist's engagement was broken off after his cultivation vanished overnight. He never forgot the look on the young clan leader's face.
The young leader had a little girl by his side. He tore out the protagonist's spiritual roots and said, "A good-for-nothing like you dares to covet my sister?"
Years later, the protagonist became a Demon Lord who ruled over a vast territory. His first order of business was revenge.
He forced his enemy to swallow the most sinister Ice-and-Fire Parasite. When its poison took effect, its victim would be plunged alternately into icy wastelands and a blazing inferno, while their mind was slowly eroded.
He meant to laugh at the arrogant man's suffering. But he never expected that the amnesiac would be so sweet and irresistible.
By the time he came to his senses, he was already racing around in search of an antidote for him.
But a parasite born in defiance of the laws of nature had no antidote to be found.
All he could do was watch the other man grow weaker, paler, and more withered by the day.
Perhaps it was a final flicker of life, but the other man eventually regained his memories.
The Dragon-Proud Protagonist thought he would be angry, or heartbroken.
Instead, the other man only said through trembling lips, "It was all my fault. Let me atone with my life. Please don't hurt my clansmen."
After that day, the Dragon-Proud Protagonist's hair turned white overnight.
[The Little Deer Whose Soul Was Taken]
The little deer had been cherished all his life and had never known hardship. Then, on his eighteenth birthday, his beloved older brother, parents, and master all pinned him down with cruel expressions. They skinned him, broke his bones, and extracted his soul.
All to bring someone else back to life: his older brother, who had died young.
"After all the kindness we've shown you, you should give your body back to our son," his parents said.
The little deer closed his eyes and shed a single tear.
Fine. I'll die, so the person you love can come back.
[The Arrogant Jerk Everyone Hated at Military Academy]
No one expected that the most arrogant guy at the military academy would pilot a spacecraft straight into an asteroid to keep it from hitting a passenger ship.
"So what if I die? It's no big deal. Don't forget, I'm the military academy's record holder for spacecraft piloting speed."
[The Obsessive and His Mute Nightingale]
Gu Zichong was both the best and the worst singer. He had a naturally beautiful voice, and his little nightingale, who had unexpectedly lost his own, gave him one brilliant score and set of lyrics after another, sending him to the heights of fame.
At the very moment he reached the top, his little nightingale died quietly in the hospital.
He didn't attend the funeral.
He drank a glass of wine, took the ring he'd bought for his little nightingale, put on his most formal clothes, and lay down beside the grave.
When people found him the next day, he was smiling.
No one knew he'd actually gone mad many years ago.
[The Hated Side Character in an Infinite-Flow Story]
He was the most hated character in the infinite-flow world, a liar through and through.
But his final lie was:
"Leave. I can handle this. I'll survive."
[The Guide Who Held His Rescue Over Him]
A Dark Sentinel was rescued during a mental breakdown. His rescuer demanded repayment by becoming his Guide.
But Dark Sentinels couldn't accept Guides.
After spending a short time together, he fell for the other man, but stubbornly refused to admit it. He left for a mission on another planet and didn't come home for three years.
When he finally returned, all he found was a lonely grave.
People told him his Guide had always been frail, and saving him had taken everything he had. He hadn't had long to live.
Someone handed him an apology letter.
"He said he was sorry. And... he seemed to miss you a lot."
[Back in the Small World After a Bad Ending]
"Look carefully. I'm not that short-lived guy who died young."
1. The protagonist doesn't follow the love-scammer route. His memories are erased in the side stories, and his love is genuine.
2. The last world is:
[The protagonist has his memories erased, but the love interest knows he's the lover who died. The protagonist doesn't know and thinks the other man sees him as a replacement.]
