(Yugi's POV)
"Hi, Teá! What do you wanna shop for first?" I asked.
"How about the, um, Game Shop over there?" Teá asked.
"Sure!" I said happily.
When we got inside, I saw Joey waiting there. I realized that Joey must've wanted to apologize and asked Teá to help him. "Yugi, I, uh...I'm sorry about all the times I bullied you...do you think you can forgive me?" Joey asked.
"Sure...if you buy me a lunch!" I said jokingly.
*Two days later, at school...*
Me and Joey were walking to school when we spotted a news van. "Hey, Yugi! There might be an idol at our school!" Joey yelled, excited. "Go look inside!" Joey said.
"Okay," I said, and tried to look inside via the driver's side window. I sadly couldn't see anything because of the glass being two-way. "I don't see anything, Joey. Let's just go to class," I said, defeated.
*After class...*
"Hey, Yugi!" yelled a boy in a headband.
"W-Who are you?" I asked.
"I'm Fujita and I know the idol that's in this school! I've told her a lot about you and she wants to meet you! She'll be behind the gym! Be sure to come alone!" Fujita shouted and ran away.
*Behind gym...*
"Hey, Fujita, where's the idol?" I asked.
Fujita punched me in the stomach and said, "There never was one!"
He continued to punch and kick me until my noes started bleeding. "W-Why?" I asked.
"Because the director told me to," Fujita whispered and kicked me in the face.
Befire I blacked out, I saw the director. "Cut! Good job!" the director said to Fujita.
(Yami's POV)
*Garage, midnight...*
"Director-san! You harmed my master's body! I will never forgive you! I challenge you to a game!" I shouted.

"It's the middle of the night! If I agree to play this game will you leave me alone?" Director-san asked.
"Yes, if you win...we will play this game using this die. If you role a lower number than me, you win. If the numbers are the same, yoy still win. Ready? Let's play. I'll role first," I said and rolled a six.
"Ha! You roled a six! I don't even need to role!" Director-san said, triumphantly.
"If you don't role, I automatically win," I said, smiling.
"Fine, you brat!" Director-san said and he threw it at my face. When it hit me, it broke in half.
"You lose!" I said.
"What?! I rolled a seven!" Director-san said in shock.
"ILLUSION OF INSOMNIA!" I yelled and cursed Director-san with eternal insomnia.
*Yugi's house...*
"Ahem...Grandfather? Can...you...help...me?" I said and stopped controlling my master's body and it fell.
(Yugi's POV)
"Grandfather...what happened?" I asked after waking up in my bed with a wet towel on my forehead.
"You asked for my help and collapsed! I'm glad that you're okay...you should get some rest." Grandpa said, a terrifying sadness settling in his eyes.
"Okay, Granfather," I said and fell asleep.
*Later...*
"Yugi, Yugi, wake up," Grandpa said, lightly shaking me.
"What, Grandfather?" I asked.
"I got you a gift. It's a pack of Duel Monster cards," Grandpa replied.
"Thanks, Grandfather!" I said and hug him.
"Your welcome. Now, back to bed! You've got school tomorrow!" Granpa says, smiling
"Goodnight!" I said.
"Goodnight, Yugi," Grandpa replied.

Getting Hard (Journey of a Tank)
Herald Stone always built tank characters in every MMORPG he played. To be immortal—that was his first Goal, a simple childhood dream. However, the turbulent realities of life put an end to his gaming days. Years passed, and Herald Stone, now having attained success and stability, was presented with the opportunity to redeem himself...to fulfill his first Goal. Trivial? Childish? Others might think so. But Herald Stone always fulfilled his Goals—every single one. No matter what. Immortality beckoned in Mother Core Online, and this time Herald Stone would answer. Choosing a long-forgotten race, hidden away in an unknown region, the journey of an immortal tank begins. This is the tale of Herald Stone...getting hard. Schedule: Mon-Wed-Fri ~1.8k-2.3k words per chapter. Also published on Scribblehub. My other ongoing story: REND | Royal Road Expect a focus on building a true tank in MMORPGs. Heavy game elements and numbers are present. But actual math will take a backseat to strategies involving skill builds and synergies that steadily become more complex while remaining understandable. The main character is atypical in LitRPGs or web novels as a whole. He might take some getting used to. Character arcs will develop over a long period. What you see now will be different as the main character changes. The start of Getting Hard is slow-paced (more so than others of the genre) and includes world-building and character development before focusing on the LitRPG.
