In the online game Glory, Ye Xiu is regarded as a textbook and a top-tier pro-player. However, due to a myriad reasons, he is kicked from the team. After leaving the professional scene, he finds work in an Internet Cafe as a manager. When Glory launches its tenth server, he who possesses ten years of gaming experience once again throws himself into the game. Bringing with him the memories of his past and an incomplete, self-made weapon, his return along the road to the summit begins! After fighting and scheming, who snatched away my glory? Under the tossing of the wind and rain, my dreams shall still appear as though they had never been shattered. In all its splendor, the path shall never be lost. Before the gazes of millions, this is where I return!
Losing face alone isn’t as good as everyone losing face
The Internet cafe kept its silenced status. It was a persistent effect, starting from day one, when Team Demeter was attacked on all sides by the crowd, to Easy Bro being launched into the air by Soft Mist's Sky Strike.
The projector screen displayed a giant "Glory!" It looked repulsive in everyone's eyes. Easy Bro felt ashamed.
But he refused to accept the result. He felt like he had the ability, but he somehow wasn't able to fully display it. He thought it was most likely because his hands weren't warmed up yet or perhaps because he had underestimated the opponent.
"Oh? Not bad. It looks like I'll need to be serious." Easy Bro hastily said, propping himself up.
There were no cheers of support from the crowd.
The crowd didn't know what Easy Bro was thinking right now, but from what they saw, Easy Bro had been on the losing side the entire time. He was led around the nose up until his death. That should be because of a wide gap in skill, not an issue of being serious, no?
