Hyperdimension Neptunia: Legend of the Male CPU (HDN x Male Reader)

Subplot: Blanc's Smile

(Y/N)'s P.O.V.

June 12, 20XX

Location: Lowee's Basilicom

Time: Morning

So it's been a couple of days ever since Blanc and I saved Lowee's Shares from the Virus Empire and over the last few days, I have actually been able to deepen my bond more with the others as I would sometimes read some books with Blanc when she wasn't busy, Rom and Ram would get into some mischief, but I loved to play with them too. I have actually taken a liking to C-Sha as a good friend due to her personality and she even told me a little more about Gold Third that I didn't know.

Hanging out in Lowee, a fairy tale type of nation, has actually made things quite peaceful for me lately. However, I was in the guest room bed that Blanc provided for me and for some reason. . . I've haven't been able to sleep properly last night as I'm squirming a bit while laying in bed. I groan a bit not really feeling comfortable, but what I don't notice is that my watch started to glow the symbol of the Sharicite, but in a golden color.

Once I wake up. . . I look around to see that I was in a forest at night. I don't know where, but I can already tell that it isn't Lowee or Lastation. I must be having some kind of lucid dream. . . it seems a little real. I look around confused before I notice that there was a purple ghostly figure in the distance.

(Y/N): Um, hello?

The ghost figure hears my voice and by the looks it was alarmed to see me as it then just took off out of nowhere which surprised me.

(Y/N): H-Huh?? Hey! Come back!

I start to pursue after this weird looking figure as I run as fast as I can trying my best not to even lose any sight of it at all. As I kept chasing it, I noticed that it phased right through some branches that were blocking my path which surprised me greatly. I look at my wrist to see that I was still wearing the watch and I gain a serious look before I activate it to put some energy inside of my body and I did a massive jump over the branch before sprinting off after the ghost again. What confused me though was that I was still wearing the watch in this dream. . .

(Y/N): Wait?? What the hell? How is this thing on me and I'm dreaming? At least I think I am. . .

I then a wall of stones just ahead of me and to my shock, the ghost flew up and over the wall to elude me again as I growl in frustration and I levitated myself up over the wall before landing on the top. I then decide to increase my speed as my aura glowed around me and I dashed to try and catch up with the ghost which was only working a little.

(Y/N): You there! Wait up! I don't want to hurt you or anything! I just want to know where I am!

The ghost turned around to me while still flying away and it actually giggled at me which confused me greatly.

(Y/N): What's so funny?

The ghost then spoke in an older female voice.

Purple Ghost: Do you really want to know where you are? You'll have to catch me first~

(Y/N): (Oh, you've got to be kidding me. . . This thing wants to play a game with me in a dream? Despite whether or not this is a dream, I have to catch her for some answers. . .)

I think of that, but I can barely even keep up with her as I can only still see just a faint outline of her. If this ghost really is responsible for bringing me here then I can't let her out of my sight. I keep chasing her as much as I can through this forest trying my best to avoid running into a tree by accident. I then noticed some vines blocking my path as I summoned my sword out of my inventory and cut them apart easily with a couple of slices.
