In the Same Light as You [Esports]

[A friendly warning: sickly, beautiful, powerful seme / lots of romance] [Main story complete, bonus chapters will drop at random] At the World Championships, in front of tens of millions of viewers, Qi Yao was utterly crushed by his lane opponent. The harder he fought back, the faster he got killed. It wasn’t embarrassing, considering his opponent was Lumen, known as the world’s number one blade wielder, the strongest professional player of the Thunderblade style, and the creator of Thunder Fury’s Sixfold Slash. You could practically call him a god. What was embarrassing was that this merciless player was none other than Su Yu, who had stolen Qi Yao’s first kiss half a year ago and then disappeared without a word. Qi Yao thought he’d never make peace with Su Yu in this lifetime. Even when Su Yu retired from the North American league and returned home to become a coach at Qi Yao’s club, Qi Yao only shook his hand coldly without even looking up. “Qi Yao. Don’t bother looking after me.” Qi Yao held a grudge. He considered Su Yu a thorn in his side and went against him at every turn. That was until he saw Su Yu fall ill right in front of him, smashing a mirror with one punch and leaving his hands and arms covered in blood. Qi Yao immediately cursed, “What the hell is wrong with you?!” But Su Yu slid down the wall in despair. He took off the wristband he wore almost year-round, revealing layers of old and new scars. He said bitterly, “I’m sick…” Qi Yao stared at his wrist, unable to breathe. “W-when…” “A long time ago.” “How long?” “Before I met you.” A man who could barely see the light, yet dreamed of leading someone else out of the dark. [Reader’s Guide] 1. Sickly, beautiful seme (Su Yu) × proud, unruly uke (Qi Yao) 2. The seme has severe mental illness, depression, stomach problems, heart problems, and just about everything else. He nearly dies in the ICU. The uke pampers the seme (Maybe my taste has changed. Looking back at this book now, I wouldn’t quite call it pampering; they pretty much dote on each other. 2026.6.15) 3. Romance-focused early on, with more esports later 4. A sweet-and-angsty esports story. The game is made up (a mash-up of games I’ve played); the seme is ill, and his illness is made up too 5.
