David Drinkwater lived his entire career as football's biggest joke.

Thirty seven years old, rejected by every major club, and called a "club whore" by fans across Europe, but at Wembley Stadium, in the rain, he finally proved them wrong.

Championship playoff final between Millwall and Norwich, and in the 90th minute, he scored the winning goal, then he died.

**[Ding. Ding.]**
**「Host found: David Drinkwater.」**
**「Synchronisation complete.」**

He opens his eyes in an eighteen year old body.

Demien Walter, a failed Fiorentina academy prospect and suicide attempt survivor with an overall rating of 48, no team, and no future, but David brought something impossible with him.

**[Ding.]**
**「Ultimate Gacha System activated.」**
**「Mission: Rise from nothing. Become the greatest footballer in history.」**

Training earns points while matches earn rewards, and achievements unlock legendary packs.

Every pack opening could change everything, whether through common stat boosts, rare techniques, or epic abilities, yet there's always the ultimate prize.

**[Ding.]**
**「Diamond Pack opened.」**
**「Congratulations. Andrea Pirlo — Regista Vision obtained. Passing +15. Vision +10. Legendary Trait unlocked: Deep-Lying Playmaker.」**

From trialist to conquering the football world, every pack, every point, and every impossible moment building toward football immortality.

They called him a failure once, and they called him wasted potential, but now, with forty years of wisdom in an eighteen year old body and a system that rewards every drop of sweat with power, David will rewrite football history.

One pack at a time.

**Some dreams get a second chance, and some legends get a second life, so this is his.**

Adriano stepped over the touchline in Bayern red.


"Two players shaped in the same academy," the commentator said, "once spoken about as close prospects coming through Fiorentina's system. Now on opposite sides of a Champions League night."


Demien's eyes stopped following the ball for half a second. His jaw tightened.


Adriano looked across the pitch and gave him a brief nod.


Demien nodded back. He didn't smile. They were still opponents, and the scoreline hadn't cared about any of it — Bayern were still up 2-1, and that was the only thing that mattered for the next thirty minutes.


The first ball into Adriano came between Dalot and Pellistri, and he took it clean, one touch rolling away from the pressure before either of them could close him down. He combined with Musiala off the return and kept the move alive without needing a second look at the ball.
