May 9th
Nothing else had happen the rest of the day, after (Y/N)'s dream. So after they woke up the next day they came up with a plan.
Everyone starts doing things that make them really happy, hoping that it will get the spirit's attention. (Y/N) is to watch for him and talk to him, before he freezes anyone.
As they are all doing their different things, they start smiling and laughing. (Y/N) is watching for the spirit, but she doesn't see him, before she starts getting cold. So she starts to talk, "Why don't you like it when others are happy? Please, talk to me, I can help you." She looks at everyone and notices that those who are happy haven't felt the cold yet. She is feeling the cold the most, and Naru and Lin, who aren't smiling and laughing, are getting visibly cold too.
"Please talk to me. We want to help you." she waits a couple minutes but she doesn't see or hear anything. "Naru, Lin, you both need to do something, or at least think of something, that makes you happy. If you are happy he has to work more to make you cold."

(Y/N) feels someone standing by her and looks to see the old man looking at her angrily. "Talk to me, use your words." As she is staring at him, she feels her feet start to get even colder. She looks down to see ice enveloping her feet, just like in her dream.
When (Y/N) tells Lin and I to think of things that make us happy, I think of the times I have spent with her. Like when she woke up from the coma and I was so happy to see her awake.
I look at her to notice she is staring at the empty space next to her, which means the spirit is standing there. She then looks down at her feet and so do I.
Her feet are being encircled by ice. I tell her, "Think of happy thoughts, (Y/N)." I cringe at my saying that. But she doesn't seem to hear me. I quickly walk over to her as the room starts getting colder, and the ice starts going up her legs. "Just talk to me." She keeps saying to the spirit.
I get up to her and tell her the same thing I said a minute ago, cringing again, but she still doesn't hear me. I try to think of something that could make her happy, but only one thing pops up.
"(Y/N)... I... Love you."
She turns and looks at me, as the room starts warming up again. Then we all see something amazing.
Two spirits show up in front of us, an old man and a young lady. The young lady walks up to him. "I get it now. That is what you wanted to tell me before I died in the crash." She pats his cheek and looks to us.

"Thank you. We were friends in our last year of school, but he couldn't talk, he was born without the ability to speak. He had written me a letter saying he wanted me to know something. so he asked me to meet him. That way he could see my reaction to his next letter. On my way to meet him, I got in a crash and died. He died in this hotel, many years later, but he still couldn't speak. He didn't want others to be happy until I knew what he had wanted to say. Turns out he just needed a guy to tell a girl that he loves her, that way he could let me know that is what he had wanted to say." Then the two of them wave goodbye, holding each other close.
I turn to look at (Y/N). "I know you love me Naru." Then she kisses my cheek and says, "Let's all go home now."

Second Wind, legend of Pandemonium (Finished/Incomplete)
The developers of the worlds leading VRMMORPG Edge Online have decided to shut down its servers after over a decade. Shugireth Darkstar, the leader of Pandemonium, Edge Online's top guild, suffers from a deadly disease and his end is near. He hasn't left his VR pod for 5 years, as the medical nanodroids at the hospital takes care of him. Without Edge, he will die, because his physical body has already been all but destroyed by the sickness. Seeing no light at the end of the tunnel, Shugireth Darkstar, the Master of Pandemonium, stubbornly stays behind as the servers shut down... If that was all, we could end this story right here. However, that was only the beginning of the legend of pandemonium. The prelude to the movement, if you will. Shall we see what happens next? -------------- Some notes from Me (The author, gasp surprise): I first wrote this (100k) as an experiment. I saw the advice about having foils for overpowered MCs, and I watched quite a few lectures on writing. I wanted to test things out for myself and see if I could carry a story through other ways than only relying on physical conflict like some thrillers do. Thus this might lean a bit towards slice of life with a romance subplot, but I don't want to give my story away so read it if u want to know more. This was basically never intended for anyone else's eyes but my own, and written to explore writing as a process. This wasn't my attempt at writing a good book, but it turned into something that I think might interest some people, so I decided to pop it up here. It is slightly old so my style and writing skills have advanced considerably since I first started this thing. Having said that, I think it's pretty readable, but I am very interested in how other people will receive this. Please feel free to criticize it and just in general shoot me some feedback on what you think. It contains light Litrpg elements, not heavy table spam, it's just the basis of the world. Although I like that sort of thing, this was written before I even knew of Royalroad and hadn't considered litrpg much. Some of you may recognize that it was slightly inspired by Overlord. Also, the Tags for sexual content and traumatizing content are there as a precaution on all of my stories pretty much, even if my story does not contain any of that at the moment. I can't really know what the future will bring, but in the case of this story I do know a little bit, since I wrote 100k words before posting it here. And I just posted it on a whim because I figured some readers on Royalroad might enjoy this story.
