[The King's Avatar] APM 1054

[If you're just passing by, I suggest you keep going. Buy it and you'll lose out, buy it and you'll get ripped off. This story's outline is finished(! My tail (hide, hide (hide it some more)]

[This is a world still being born, not yet pure. Amid the chaos, only a few fleeting fragments can be glimpsed.]

[Glory!]

The words flashed across the screen. Lord Grim fought to the very end, and the Season 10 championship went to Team Happy.

Lord Grim stood alone on the stage, Thousand Creations in hand, staring straight out of the screen. The corners of his mouth slowly curled into a smile.

Ye Xiu's vision had temporarily gone "black," and the final scene of the championship match he saw was Lord Grim smiling on the game screen as he sent out a speech bubble:

[O, OO, OOOO]

The text bubble appeared and drifted slowly above his head.

Then, with a pop, it burst.

[Forum-style]

#818 That Lord Grim smile

--He smiled, but it somehow felt like he didn't smile at all (?)

[Notes]

1. Ye Xiu-centric, no couples.

2. Glory belongs to the original The King's Avatar. The bugs and out-of-character moments are mine.

3. Primarily The King's Avatar, from the Season 10 finals to the World Invitational. The background has a tiny bit of Crossover, Thief, Full-Time Dragon, and Dumbass.

4. The story ends after the Season 10 finals, as the World Invitational begins. It seemed like a good point to wrap things up (or pause them)?

5. Favorites + comments = motivation (and then, maybe one day, I'll come back).

[Notes with slight spoilers?]
