The Sleeping Assassin's Return

The Sleeping Assassin's Return
Four years ago, Team X and their masked captain, Frost, shocked the esports world by defeating the reigning champions FFS. But just months later, the team disbanded, and Frost disappeared. Now, as his former teammates rise to global fame, the world wonders: will the legendary 'Sleeping God' ever return to the arena he once dominated?

The echoes of the 2019 Valley of Light World Championship still reverberate through the esports world four years later. Millions watch as the announcers on a live stream reminisce about the legendary Team X and their masked captain, Frost, who disappeared after their historic win. Xiao Yi, the former Frost, lies on the couch, feigning sleep but listening intently as the announcers drag his name through the mud, criticizing his retirement and abandonment of his teammates.

His older brother, Xiao Qiu, known online as 'Q Shen,' rushes in and closes the stream window, sighing in relief to find Xiao Yi still 'asleep.' As Xiao Qiu prepares for his own stream, his viewers barrage him with requests to commentate on the current World Championship – a championship featuring Xiao Yi's former teammate, Moon. Against his usual practice of avoiding such content for his brother's sake, Xiao Qiu is put on the spot. Xiao Yi, sensing his brother's predicament, makes a quiet decision from his feigned sleep.
