《Phenomena the Basic Witch and the Unwritten Kingdom》Chapter 27: In Her Own Words
Advertisement
A hollow look remained in the princess’ large eyes—a short, grey distance between life and death. As Mena and Maggie waited breathlessly, a sorrow contorted Maggie’s face. An eternity seemed to pass them in the void, and Plumerella wasn’t waking up. “N-n-no,” Maggie stammered, and she floated closer and closer to the lifeless princess.
“Plumy, I..I’m…” Maggie reached out towards the princess’ face to touch it one last time. “I’m…”
“The biggest imbecile in the whole kingdom?”
A white glove reached out and slapped Maggie across the face. Dazed, the former Ghost Writer rubbed her red cheek. Life had returned to the princess’ eyes and now, they were filled with fury.
“Maggie…” Plumerella said with both hands placed firmly on her hips. “You are indeed the most idiotic, stupid, daft, and hardheaded imbecile in the whole kingdom.”
“B-but why?” Maggie asked, shaking her head in disbelief as Mena floated silently watching them. “Is it because I drained the kingdom of all its color?”
“No,” the princess responded and did not elaborate.
“Because I sealed you in a tower away from everyone else?”
“No…” the princess responded again.
“Because…I killed Chad and your father?”
Plumerella covered her eyes with her hand and shook her head. “As hard as that is to move past…no.”
“Then what?” Maggie implored her former friend.
“Because,” Plumerella said in a matter-of-fact tone. “Once you died, you made no effort to reach out to me. Instead, you chose to take revenge upon our world.”
Maggie did a double take and floated backwards. “But you…you went over to Chad almost immediately.”
“He reached out to me while I was grieving,” Plumerella said honestly. “I had no idea he had a hand in your execution.”

Maggie’s head sunk low. “I guess you’re right, Plumy. I am an imbecile. I was a fool to do everything I did. To have my revenge before anything else. To not even send a sign to you or my father that my soul lived on. That is truly foolish of me.”
The princess placed a white glove on Maggie’s shoulder, causing the pigmalian’s daughter to look up in shock. “You are an imbecile, I agree,” Plumerella said, but instead of a scowl, a warm smile adorned her face. “But at least you admitted it. Something the wickedest people in this world would never admit. “
“But…” Maggie stumbled over her words again.
“Maggie,” Plumerella duly responded. “You truly gave me the most splendidful night. And I was hoping it would continue into the morning. I had never met a girl like you before. One who was so shy, but thoughtful all the same.”
“Was I?” Maggie asked, giving the princess her full attention.
“You were,” the princess responded and leaned in close to her ear. “I really liked you and if our time wasn’t so cut short…who knows what could have happened between us.”
Plumerella said and embraced her first friend. "I really liked your company.”
A golden, heavenly light shone from inside of Maggie’s chest. Mena and the princess floated back as a pair of velvet white wings appeared behind Maggie. “W-what’s happening?”
The Good Fairy appeared beside Mena and Plumerella. Maggie, still astounded, floated upwards towards the ether. “You’re moving on,” the Fairy said gently. “It seems that the unfinished business in your heart has closed.”
“I do feel lighter,” Maggie responded with a sigh. “Much lighter.”
Tears ran down the cheeks of all three girls. Even Mena, who had known Plumerella and Maggie briefly was moved to sadness by their tale. But she was glad she could help them all the same.

“Please,” Maggie pleaded. “Tell my dad, thank you for everything, and that I love him deeply.”
“We will,” Mena and Plumerella responded as they looked up at the now ascending ghost of Maggie.
“Thank you,” Maggie said, folding her hands together. “I have so much I want to say, but I think I’ll rest now. Plumy…I love you.”
“I love you too,” the Princess wailed suddenly, dabbing her eyes with a pink hanky.
And with those words, the restless soul of the Ghost Writer finally came to rest.

8 203The True Endgame
What defines endgame content? Is it raiding epic dungeons to take down the strongest bosses there are, or is it facing off against other players to climb the ladder and become the top PvPer? Is endgame content gathering materials and crafting the strongest and most exotic equipment that there is, or is it all about playing the market and amassing more wealth than everybody else? Some people even argue that fashion and minigames are endgame content! Ryouta has already done all of that. Having spent most of his life playing MMO after MMO, he now finds himself wanting to live a virtual life that is far more relaxed and casual than what he is known for. To Ryouta, the true endgame is fishing. Cover illustrated by KoeHaru1!
8 250Dark Seas Leading Demise
Having awakened within a forest with little to no memories of her past and being left with the sole task of surviving…what will Kaltyr do?-----------------------------------If when you're reading this there are only 49 chapters, then for all intents and purposes it's completed. The first 49 chapters are just a prologue, giving a long (135,000+ words) introduction to the main character, the power system, and how she obtained her powers--all within the forest she awoke within. You will not learn why the novel has its name.There are only 5 characters, 1 of which is the MC and only another of which is recurring for a time.I do have plans for future books of the series, but they aren't getting written for a long time because this was just a side project to practice the basics of storytelling and whatnot. I will instead be working on my real projects.This is a slow story that doesn't pander to the audience, but I hope you enjoy it, nonetheless.
8 208Re?digimon? It is Not! Damn it! What the heck is this?!
Fortune (Takara), an overseas transfer student, which life his daily life normally (he's a womanizer), like others student(duh, no way he is), somehow or another got in a different but the same world as before. (confusing right?) in this world, characters from the animes, whjch should be differ in each world converged into one... Albeit not many still had their own power, they still withold some bizarness in their character. Not only the human character... those monsters, named as Digimon too, ehm... er... too much spoiler... let's just say that he's a normal high-schooler, and there's here and there's that... then he became a digimon tamer! (Is he?) done... (is it?) #I'm mostly writing this on my spare time using my phone~ expect less words in this story but more frequent release (like at most a chap a day or a chap a week... :3) #P.S. I'll end my story of course... like the others, althought I'm a moody person I'll end my story once I start it, so expect more in my series... and don't give me a crappy rating just because the note above... Overall... thanks for reading my story~
8 74Dimensional Dissonance
A cataclysm. A new world with many fundimental changes, or perhaps an old world with a new face. New entities that have never before been seen. A young man named Gareth awakens unusual powers in the form of a symbiotic transdimensional entity. These powers can change the world, prevent the extinction of humanity, and perhaps even pave the way for a whole new world. However, where there is power, there will always be those who seek to abuse it. They aren't content with sharing, and will do absolutely anything to stop Gareth from becoming who he was destinied to be. Caveat: While the novel does contain the LitRPG tag, this is not the primary focus of the story. Instead, the LitRPG structure is used as a plot device within this story.
