Out of all the people that had died after helping him, Ivor was the last one that he had yet to avenge. He even held a peculiar place in his mind compared to the other important figures in his life.
Ivor had taught him the inscription method on which Noah still based most of his creations. It wouldn't be wrong to say that his teachings had been what had allowed Noah to reach his current level.
The two of them had never been too close. Noah could barely think about anything but himself back then, and Ivor only wanted to keep his inscription method alive.
Their relationship wasn't about affection. Noah and Ivor had their plans, and they had never let their feelings hinder them. Also, both their situation and their mental state weren't ideal for that.
However, even if Ivor was practically a walking corpse, he had unlocked Noah's potential and was worthy of a good end.
