As I woke up, I began to feel my head hurting.
This confused .
'Haven't I rested enough not to get sick?
Looking around, everything was still dark, completely dark...
'Don't tell I slept until the next day?
Picking up my cell phone to check, the ti read 04:00 am...
'Gee, is my headache because I overslept?!'
At least I was sure that I was completely rested, my body was light, my mind, despite the headache, was still working nimbly.
'Maybe the reason for the headache is the position I slept in? Or the pillow isn't very good?
Putting that aside, knowing that I wasn't sleepy enough to keep sleeping, I got up and went to the bathroom to take a hot shower.
Although it was sumr, at four in the morning the weather was still a bit chilly.
The hot water hitting my head was relaxing, and when I got out of the shower my headache completely disappeared, leaving feeling energized and ready to do anything.
Curious to know how much the ga had grown since I went to sleep, I turned on the computer and looked at the stats screen.

'Wow... 440 new Players downloaded the ga?! The invitation code is really paying for itself! Not to ntion that the average number of Players over the last 24 hours has remained above 700 people, just having 500 people online now at four in the morning is shocking!'
This made curious about the college's rankings.
Normally having 500 Players online during the day would an that my ga would be halfway down the first page, but considering the current ti I was curious about my position in the Rankings.
Opening the college's website that I had already bookmarked in my browser, I didn't even have to scroll down to see my ga!
1st - 983 Players Online [Knife Throwing Training in the Dark!]
2nd - 777 Players Online [Ice Shield Defense Training!]
3rd - 566 Players Online [Moving Archery Training!]
4th - 511 Players Online [ Runestone]
5th - 489 Players Online [Footwork Training for Spears]
...
Coming in fourth place with four days since the ga's release was incredible!
Considering that today was Wednesday and the day hadn't even started yet while the test would only end on Saturday at 23:59, I still had four more full days to get more Players and pass first place.
Thinking from this point of view, the developnt of my ga was going very well, although first place was practically guaranteed, I wasn't going to relax and take the risk of not finishing in first place.
Not having much to do and not wanting to go and develop the ga straight after waking up, I made myself a simple breakfast while creating social dia pages for my company.
Frankly, because I'm terrible with nas, it was becoming more complicated than it should have been.
In this world there were a lot of Ga Creators who just posted gas under their own nas, earning a lot of fa, fortune, glamor, and everything that cos with the popularity of millions of people following you.
But I didn't want sothing like that.
Would it be interesting to be famous and have people trying to please you all the ti? Of course, but that's a path of no return... once you beco famous there's no button to lose the fa.
The only way out of fa is to beco irrelevant, but with the gas I had in my mind from the other world I'm sure I wouldn't fall into irrelevance, so I'd have to deal with increasing fa over ti.
Sure, even if I created a studio and released gas under the company na, at so point my na would beco known to the point where I would beco famous, but that fa would still be much less than if I used my own na.
So the decision to use a company na to develop the ga was essential.
I didn't just want a generic na, I wanted sothing that would spark sothing in the players whenever it was said.
To that end, I started jotting down so na ideas.
Reviewing the ideas I'd jotted down, there was one I liked the most...
Thinking about how the current gaming scene was frozen, with Ga Creators just developing the sa things, Players playing gas just to practice without feeling any fun in it, and in my view this should be the main point in a ga, my gas should be like Haven safe for them.
'A Haven to protect Players from the cold... maybe... FrostHaven Studios?!'
I liked that na! To confirm that it was the na I wanted, I said it out loud.
“FrostHaven Studios...?”
When I said it out loud, the na sounded weak, weaker than I had imagined... it was as if sothing was missing.
Studios doesn't give much confidence. Sure, I'm going to make a gas studio, but is that going to be my focus forever...?
I think what bothered most about Studios was that it felt like a limiter.
“Since my focus is going to be on entertaining people, it's best to change FrostHaven Studios to FrostHaven Entertainnt! Yes, that's an imposing na!” I said out loud, excited as I walked around the dormitory.
Looking again at the list of nas I'd made, none of them captivated as much as FrostHaven Entertainnt, so that was the na I was going to use!
Sure, I still had to check sothing out before I could be sure... if there wasn't already another company with that na.
Searching through social dia and the search engine, I only found companies that used Frost or Haven in their nas, but none that were the combination of these nas, so it was decided.
After sending a ssage to an accountant to help set up a company with this na and asking how much he would charge, I started to create the social dia profiles.
For the image of the company logo, I logged into Ga Core and used so Mana, my imagination and the help of System to put what I envisioned on paper.
Looking at the image of a frozen mountain, snow covering everywhere, but a beautiful path of snow-free green grass leading to a cozy wooden hut illuminated by golden lights with 'FrostHaven' written above it, a smile ca over my face.
This was exactly what I envisioned for the future of the company, a frozen world where only my company with my gas were the warm and cozy place where Players could enjoy this beautiful landscape.
'What can I post to attract an audience to follow my accounts?'
I know that if I only posted boring things or things about myself, no one would be interested, since they're only interested in the gas, so what could I post about the gas that would interest them?
'I think posting about future updates and a teaser of what's new for the ga could be interesting, fans love it when the company shows sothing that's coming in the future, especially considering that in this world Ga Creators don't usually add many things after the ga is ready, posting sothing like this could be very positive for my image and for players to understand that the ga will last a long ti!'
Thinking about it, I've already started to formulate a vision in my mind.
The normal card packs that players opened to get new cards for their decks in the ga were just simple brown leather packages.
By slightly changing the design on the leather and adding a few different colored lines, I stacked a bunch of these card packs on a table and took a picture in Ga Core.
Using this image, I smiled as I wrote the ssage I was going to post with it.

- Nathan POV -
I never believed that I would wake up at 7 a.m. to play a ga...
Thinking about how much fun Runestone was, I began to envy the F Rank players for being able to get stronger with a ga like this while I would have to play E Rank gas in order not to waste my potential on sothing only half as efficient...
As my Mana total was already around 20 units, I was taking advantage of my week off by playing Runestone every day from 7 in the morning until midnight, totaling 17 hours of play!
The advantage of playing for so long is that even though F Rank gas only give half the improvent that E Rank gas do, I was still able to get a significant improvent after 17 hours of this training.
Honestly, if my body didn't need at least 6 hours of sleep, I'd probably try to use my 20 MP to play the ga for 20 hours every day.
With 17 hours of gaplay a day, I had already raised my Rank from the initial Bronze 4 to the current Gold 2!
In today's 17 hours of play I'm sure I could reach Platinum, or maybe even Diamond!
I knew that my brother was the current Rank 1 in the ga, even with less daily playing ti than other Players AND Ranks who knew the ga, but with his mind he was holding his own.
'It would be funny to et him in a ga haha, considering he doesn't even know I'm playing, the look of shock on his face would be very funny.' I laughed as I picked up my Player Core and entered Runestone.
Surprisingly, when I entered the ga, instead of going directly to the Tavern where the Players stayed, what I saw was an image of a snowy mountain with a cozy wooden hut and the na 'FrostHaven' in the sky.
'Has any company hired this Ga Creator yet?!' I asked myself in surprise. 'Or is this a company he created?
Thinking about how quick this company had been to hire him, or how quick he had been to make a company, I was finally able to enter the tavern after three seconds.
But when I reached the board there was a notification flashing red.
Reminding myself that this could an a new feature, I quickly clicked on it and a window appeared in front of .
[FrostHaven posted a spoiler on Whisper about new features that might be coming to the ga, would you like the link to that post to open on your computer?]
Seeing this made curious.
'A spoiler of news for the ga? Isn't this ga already complete?
Thinking about BlackJack, which always had the sa number of cards without any rule changes or anything like that, I assud that Runestone would also be like that, so I was curious.
[Yes]
I clicked Yes and quickly disconnected from Player Core, rushing to the PC, curious to know what this post was about.
[Hello Heroes, while our pretty waitress was cleaning the tavern, a strange packet of cards was found hidden away. Although these packets are very similar to normal packets, so small details have led us to believe that the cards in these packets are completely different from traditional packets... so we're wondering if we should sell these cards for gold coins as well...]
Below the ssage was an image of a stack of card packets.
These packs were exactly as the ssage said, very similar to the packs that were already available in the ga, but after opening so many packs in the ga, I quickly noticed the differences and got excited.
'Are these really new cards? Bliy, I'm going to have to adapt my deck even more!'
