C4 : Unknown state (2)
Yes, even though we were approving them to rear an abandoned child. We never once see him as our blood related, and adorable grandson. By no means were we, accepting him as a part of our Saber’s family.
Contempt is always being hidden in our eyes.
It is true that he is a genius, at the age of 3 he could already talk fluently. He is a smart child, and whenever he look at us, he never let loose his curious eyes. Until he reaches the age of 5… his eyes… become more adult, and intelligent than our eldest child.
A 5 years old kid that outstandingly smart and perspicacious (sharp witted). With that eyes of his, that already understood about the truth of his origin, but ignore it and keep acting as if he is my daughter child…
How abominable!

“What?! Are you joking?! Don’t talk nonsense!”
“I… I didn’t Duke, I won’t dare to…”
“Then? Do you even realize that word of yours? It’s a damn 7 years old kid! He’s able kill several assassin from the Black hood organization?! Not even you could do it! Even if you battle again one of them 1 on 1! Even the weakest of them is stronger than you!”
“…”
That’s preposterous! What kind of entity is the Black Hood is? It’s the famed assassin from the Xierz Empire! It’s a sure kill royal assassin, that once they done their mission their success rate is 90%! It’s by no means an organization that could be looked at one eyed closed!
That child… no that grandson of mine… is not a genius… he is a monster that could even kill a ghost from the Black hood… how intriguing…
“Dismiss”
“I shall take my leave!”
Hmm, what should I do now?

“Lucie! Let’s visit our Grandson! He’s in a coma right now!”
“Ah! Is that true! Then let’s go! What did you wait! Let’s go fast!”
Unlike me, Lucie my wife already being in love with that child when the child call her Grandma in his 2 year of age… even though I myself need 4 years to marry her… He just need 4 time of meeting with her to get her fall in love to him. How abominable!
At the age of 3, I am being caught up surprised by Lynn…
“Grandpa… am I not father and mother’s son?”
How… did he know?
“You are their son you know…”
Then he look at me, with an eye filled with sadness.
“Am I your Grandson?”
“You are… my 1st Grandson”
Those eyes that look more sadder, the more I answered the more sad he is.
“Thank you Grandpa… Then… Let me change my question…”
“…”
“Am I someone from the Zhield’s Lineage?”
That question… it’s not something 3 years old could think of… what should I say? I am confused… there’s a pain in my heart…
“It’s okay Grandpa…”
“HA… what’s wrong with you Lynn? Did you sick or something?”
“a…. no I’m fine… I just want to solve the puzzle. That’s all…”
“What puzzle?...”
“The puzzle of why did father and mothers friend always asking about is my mother already healed, and my mother answer of ‘it’s not. he is my son.’ And mother’s father eyes…”
That damn weasel!
“… it’s alright Grandpa, I’m not a child anymore…”
You are still a child! Damn it!
“ha… Lynn, you are still a 3 year old brat… cry, when you want to cry. Laugh when you want to laugh, and… just play as you wish to…”

“no, grandpa. Why should I cry… I think I am blessed… that I’m being picked by mother and father…. To be able, to be their child… to be your grandson… I am blessed…”
With that… I hug him, and pat his head. But, even then… I didn’t hear nor see his crying face… instead of that… what I see is his happy face. There’s no longer sadness in it…
“Grandpa… can I ask you for a something?....”
“Just tell me”
“Teach me swordsmanship…”
“The training will be hard you know…”
“I will overcome it.”
Not even once at that time, that I thought he will be able to kill several assassin after only 4 year of training. But, in accordance to that… the price he must to pay, is… he stay in a state of coma for more than 2 weeks by now…
I could only sit beside my child and his wife, seeing the pale face of Lynn… that getting thinner day by day…
Ah… never could I think that just for training 4 year… he’s able to kill Black hood Organization’s assassin just with 2 short swords… how amazing will he become in his adulthood…
No… even if he’s not be able to be something big… for at least he need to be alive more than I could… even if he became a crippled… just by he being alive is enough for me…
Ah… Lynn, my dear Grandson… please… wake up… play with this Grandpa of yours… You should not come with your Grandma and uncles, you should just stay here with me for now…
“.he’s twitching! Rey! He’s twitching!”
“HAHA! My son! He’s awake!”
At last! Dear god! I really thank you for your grace! Thank you!
“Ugh… Grandpa? Father? Mother? Why were you all here?”

my first story ^U^
author note: yaaa hurray it’s my first story ^U^ i hope you all like it! all characters belong to my special friends who submitted them!!ok heres the first chapter enjoy ^U^ TL note: Some of you may be wondering why I am translating a story written originally in English, to English. I remember reading this story many years ago, as a teen, and had since dismissed it as a bizarre fever dream. Only recently, through much Googling, did I manage to rediscover it, and as such decided to not only read it again, but fix the author’s many typing issues and share the context of what I remember from its original happening. I believe the story underneath to hold deeper meanings than its strange happenings, but at minimum I hope you will appreciate it for the sheer weirdness of it all. For the best experience, skim it for your first reading and, if you are interested, read more deeply the second time.Some typing is left as-is to preserve what I believe to be authorial intent, or at least necessary effect. If you notice any typing issues I managed to miss, please email them to me at [email protected]

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.
