Some exist with pride, others struggle with pride, some compete with pride, and there are those who fail with pride, but very few can walk away with pride.
Congratulations, for as you read these lines, you have witnessed the whole lives of many great basketball players.
This pronunciation was embodied when Stephen Curry, after facing defeat in 2021, claimed that no one would want to face them the following season; When Tim Duncan was convinced before the start of the 2014 Finals that they would not mess up; When Kobe Bryant promised at Old Buss's memorial to take the Lakers to the playoffs; When Nowitzki, shedding his label as a soft player, retreated to the locker room in tears at night; When Kevin Garnett let out a skyward howl after holding the championship trophy; When the 2004 Detroit Pistons won and the F4 Lakers lost…
Our story begins in an era when pride still mattered.

Dungeon of Pride, Laplace
Darkness reigned before the dawn of light...
Who would have thought that his mundane life would take a chilling turn one day? Trapped in the monotony of his office existence, Simon suddenly finds himself thrust into an extraordinary realm beyond imagination.
Death was merely the beginning...
When Simon opened his eyes next, a fantastical landscape vastly different from his familiar office cubicle awaited him. A marvellous sight, a different world.
The cruel life...
Althaea, a realm of merciless brutality where the law of survival dictates: eat or be eaten, kill or be killed.
Born not as a human...
Simon emerges as a demon, a being shunned by humanity and embroiled in a relentless war between humans and demons. The Seraphims, protector of humanity, and the Demon lords who rule across all demonkind. Amidst all the chaos, he must navigate the treacherous hierarchy of demonkind as one of the lowest-ranking Demon Nobles.
The unique power...
The art of dungeon creation—a golden opportunity to ascend above the chaos and establish his dominion.
With power comes adversaries...
Now he must delve deeper, unveil its hidden powers and forge alliances that will dictate his fate. Fight rival demons, vengeful seraphims, and ancient evils who were up to no good.
.
Join Simon on his odyssey through a world teetering on the edge of destruction, where every step forward is fraught with danger and every decision could mean life or death.
Will he rise to the challenge and defy the odds, or will he succumb to the unforgiving darkness that threatens to consume him?

Pride Online
Although Wisana was the son of a developer of “Pride Online”, the most popular game of this time, he had never shown any interest in the gaming world. However, when his crush mentioned she was playing the game, he immediately joined in!
He began his journey as a clueless new player, so inexperienced that even a two-year-old could defeat him!
His misfortune was endless from the start…
First, he landed in front of a Boss-level monster!
Then, he accidentally kicked the boss and had to run for his life…
And when he tried to sell his items for some money, he almost got tricked by a cunning seller!
Yet, there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
Just as he was about to fall for the seller's trick, a girl named Maysa suddenly appeared and saved him.
She taught him everything about this virtual world and even invited him to join her party.
Who would have known… that their lives would change forever…
The system would like to announce an event from the GM, hunting the Boss “Lord Inferno” at the abandoned dungeon with a Mini Event “Get the shot if you dare!”
“This is definitely our event,” Maysa said, looking up at Wisana with sparkling eyes. Wisana turned to look at the pretty face that was made up with a smile as always. But he somehow felt anxious.
“I changed my mind. We’re not going to Tristan tomorrow. We’re going to the abandoned dungeon!”
“Huh!!”
And so, the legendary adventure of the duo began!

The younger lions might be excited. They could see the upcoming cubs as new playmates. They might start preparing little dens or areas for the cubs to play in once they are born, using things like leaves and small branches.
One of the main events is Kopa's birth, which brings new hope to the Pridelands as he is the heir. Another event could be his early experiences in the pride, learning from his father and the other lions. Also, any potential threats or challenges that he faces during his upbringing are important events in his story.
Well, in Kopa's story within Disney The Lion King 2 Simba's Pride, he is a key part of the Pridelands' future. He's Simba's son, and that comes with a lot of responsibilities. Kopa has to learn the ways of the pride, understand leadership, and also deal with any rivalries that might emerge. His story is about growing up, learning about his place in the world, and preparing to one day take over from his father, all while living in a world full of different animals with their own personalities and motives.
Since 'lemon' content is inappropriate, let's consider their general characteristics. Kovu is often depicted as a strong and determined character. He has to deal with his past and his place in the Pride Lands. Simba is the noble king, with a sense of responsibility. In proper fanfiction, their interactions might show Kovu learning from Simba's wisdom and Simba coming to accept Kovu as part of the pride.
Simba Technology was a technology company focused on artificial intelligence. It was founded in 2014 and was based in Beijing, China. Simba Technology's main businesses included artificial intelligence chips, artificial intelligence algorithms, and artificial intelligence applications. I didn't find any information regarding the valuation of Simba Technologies.
If you want to know more about Simba Technologies, you can check the relevant news or reports.
While waiting for the anime, you can also click on the link below to read the classic original work of " Full-time Expert "!
In some lemon fanfictions, their relationship might develop more quickly. For example, Simba could have a series of adventures where he discovers more about his father's past in a very short time. This new knowledge could make him idolize Mufasa even more and strive to be like him sooner.
