Take a look at Chapter 538 of "Welcome to Rewind World Game": Chapter 538: Chapter 535 - "Hello, Xiao Ai.Hearing this unique nickname, Su Mingâan paused for... See what happens next!
Chapter 538: Chapter 535 - "Hello, Xiao Ai.Hearing this unique nickname, Su Mingâan paused for a moment.
He took another look at the purple-haired girlâs appearance; she was indeed Yuan Shuangshuang who should have been in a coma in the basement.
"Yuan Shuangshuang?"
"I donât like the name Yuan Shuangshuang," the purple-haired girl said. "You can call me Xiao Ai."
Su Mingâan climbed the stone steps and saw her pair of violet eyes more clearly.
He saw the black crow mark on her arm.
She was definitely the First Guide, Yuan Shuangshuang.
Since Xiber has the nickname Cici, and Yuan Shuangshuang did not like her name, he would call her Xiao Ai then.
He communicated with Xiao Ai and learned that her most unique feature was â adventurers died, but as a guide, she would not lose her divine wisdom.
The last nine days, she said she was actually asleep, not truly bereft of divine wisdom. If someone attempted to kill her, she would wake up immediately, and that was why Noel died.
...Although Su Mingâan did not understand how Xiao Aiâs appearance of lying in the basement with open eyes for the past few days could be called "sleep."
After the baptism of Xiber, he had learned to half-believe the words of NPCs, treating them all as liars unless their favorability was full.
Whether Xiao Aiâs words were true or false wasnât important â what mattered was that she was the First Guide and possessed the Black Crow Authority, and she was standing before him.
"...If you have been asleep all this time, how did you know my name has âAnâ in it?" Su Mingâan asked.
"I can still hear the outside world even when Iâm asleep," Xiao Ai smiled. "Anjiang, I heard you negotiating with Cici earlier, saying that youâd wait for me to die before taking the Black Crow Authority. Looks like your plan didnât work out."
"Do you want to make a pact with me?" Su Mingâan asked. "I still have one last Silver Star Book."
He was very blunt because he felt that this girl wasnât a normal character; the usual methods of communication wouldnât work with her.
Cici was currently staying with the First Tribe and surely couldnât join him for the Silver Star instance at dawn, so finding a guide on the spot was a good choice.
"Hmm..." Xiao Ai said, "Sure, if youâre not scared of the curse radiation I give off."
Su Mingâan was slightly stunned.
...That easy?
This was the legendary First Guide, who should be stronger than Fengchang. Had he succeeded just like that?
Although she was indeed emitting a curse and her previous adventurer had died because of not being able to bear the curse, compared to other players, his Mentality Points were on a whole different level. The faint curse aura around them might kill other players, but it wouldnât kill him.
He spent 100 Emotion Value to overlay a thin membrane-like barrier around himself, which clung to his body like protective clothing.
This should be completely foolproof now.
Xiao Ai took the initiative to grab his hand, and with a flash of light, the guide pact was signed.
"By the way, Anjiang, do you need me to teach you any abilities?" she asked again.
"...I do," Su Mingâan immediately responded. "If possible, please also change the nickname."
"Okay," Xiao Ai smiled. "Mingâanjiang."
"..." Su Mingâan: "Letâs stick with the previous one."

After Spacer Kael Nashe, Su Mingâan received skill tutoring from a second guide.
The Seed of Curse was a skill similar to Corpse Explosion and likely to have high explosive damage, potentially bringing negative effects such as corruption and erosion, which could enhance his group attack and control abilities.
However, he hadnât expected that upon his first meeting with Xiao Ai, she would not only sign a contract but also gift a skill. Her attitude, compared with Xiberâs initial demeanor, was enough to move one to tears.
If only Xiber had been so compliant from the beginning, his journey wouldnât have been so arduous...
"Oh right, this is something I picked up before." He took out an item.
Seeing this number, Su Mingâanâs eyes momentarily lingered.
"Xiao Ai student, did you know me before?" he asked.
"As for you, I probably donât," Xiao Ai replied, taking the bracelet, "Okay, letâs not waste time. Youâre after the Black Crow Authority, right? I canât give it to you just yet, but when the timing is right, Iâll make sure to hand it over to you..."
She said, walking away into the night, unfazed by the black mist that enveloped her. Her own concentration of the curse was higher than the mist itself, making her fearless in her nighttime ventures.
Su Mingâan felt the urge to forcefully seize the Black Crow Authority from her since it was the only thing keeping him from a Perfect Pass.
But seeing the purple-haired girlâs light steps, and recalling Noelâs death, he refrained from acting.
A favorability of 96 points... and yet she claims not to know him...
Surrounded by dark thorns, a seemingly ancient castle stood erect.
Like white roses, the flowers bloomed in abundance around the castle. They were all paper-made faux flowers, merely a false beauty, like a dream in this tainted world.
Lu was the first player to arrive; he pushed open the heavy door of the ancient castle and looked upon a grand hall.
In the very center of the hall stood a long white table, with ten golden chairs placed five on each side, facing each other.
Golden candlesticks and silver-shining dinnerware were arrayed on the table, while the slight "pop" of the fireplace could be heard, mixing with the smell of fruit and roast turkey in the air.
This was the battlefield of Silver Star Replicaâs final instance, the point of decision.
Lu took his seat on a chair on the left side.
His guide, Mocha, stood next to him, the remote toy in her hand clicking "clack" loudly in the quiet nighttime.
"...Qiongdi certainly has a unique artistic style," Lu interacted with the comments in his live stream, their atmosphere always friendly: "Indeed, the Steam Engine Workshop is one thing, but even a Middle Ages castle is created, where eras blend together in quite an interesting way... Judging by the number of chairs, there should be ten remaining players? Yesterdayâs system notification mentioned thirteen, so three have died? Must be the handiwork of the elders sent by the Number One Player...
...Hmm. Su Rin, itâs possible, too; he seems to have been missing in action. Iâm looking forward to his showdown with the Number One Player.
...The first guide? To this point, still no news; if only we could see her..."
Suddenly, Lu heard a noise from outside the door.
"Seems Iâm the second to arrive," Noel squeezed through the door gap.
He was covered in bloodstains, his white robes dyed crimson.
"What happened?" Lu asked: "Cross-dressing looks good on you, New World President."
"Almost got killed in retaliation," Noel replied: "Truly terrifying... that purple-haired guy. I hope Su Mingâan doesnât get entangled with her."
