Parade of smiles au (Were-clown au)
"There once was a king who dreamt he was a clown..."
Basic premise is an mysterious circus appearing in the tyrant kings kingdom, the bored Smilk goes to investigate to satisfy his own curiosity not knowing (or remembering) that this specific carnival is one of legends and tales, here to play a game with the king as the target.
The only thing for the test to start was the king to take something, like others before him.
Some took jewelry or treasures if they were greedy.
Others took weapons or beasts if they coveted power.
Even the lovely performers were no exception.
Each with their own secrets to be discovered.
What did Shadow milk take?
An accident happened that ruined the king's enjoyment of the show, he called for the death of the performer responsible but a clown intervened, laying down his life to spare one of his own. This intrigued the king and he took him as his fool.
However little clown Pure Vanilla has a few conditions to spice up this game~
Which inevitably leads to the fall of the king.
"... Then the jester woke up and thought it was a hilarious dream."
