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.**

Mount received the ball wide and his cross-field pass found Demien in the center circle, and Demien received with his back partially to goal while Elmas pressed from behind with the timing that came from playing at Napoli where pressing was systematic rather than just energetic.


The body shape said Elmas expected Demien to either play backward or try to turn right, and reading that expectation was what allowed the skill to work.


Demien planted his right foot and dragged the ball behind his standing leg with the inside of his left foot while his body spun one hundred and eighty degrees, and the full rotation happened in the space of one second while Elmas lunged at where the ball had been and found nothing.


Space created. Defender beaten. Old Trafford appreciated the skill with applause building and "Oooohhh!" from the crowd acknowledging technique.


Grealish's laugh carried from the left wing. "That's filthy!"
