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.**

Alessandro Moretti sat across from seven Nike executives in a conference room with floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked Milan's financial district, and a tablet on the table displayed a photo of Demien Walter in Atalanta's blue and black.


"We went to San Siro on Sunday to evaluate Walter," Alessandro began. "I'm recommending we move forward."


The senior executive—Giorgio Mancini, Nike Football's Southern Europe Director—leaned back in his chair. "Atalanta lost one-nil. What's the story here?"


"The story," Alessandro said, "is that an eighteen-year-old who Fiorentina released four months ago just played seventy-five minutes at San Siro against the defending champions and looked like he belonged. Not for a second did he shrink."


He swiped to a photo showing Demien exchanging shirts with Tonali after the match.
