Rewriting the Finale Because the Author was Incompetent

Lee Ji-Hoon was just another college student pretending to live the “normal” life that campus zombies call routine… but that act only fooled his parents. Inside the dorms, the truth was a whole different horror show: physical abuse, daily humiliation, psychological bullying on nightmare difficulty — and Ji-Hoon was so broken on the inside that even his soul needed a vacation. With no strength to fight back, he basically became a ghost. Gray days. Even darker nights. And the only thing that actually kept him breathing? Novels. Reading stories where the protagonist always wins, because in his real life he couldn’t get a victory even by accident. One day, after finishing his entire reading list, a strange recommendation pops up: “THE BATTLEFIELDS WHERE THE STRONGEST RULE!” stylish cover, catchy title, insane vibe. Ji-Hoon clicks. And bro… he gets HOOKED. The story was brilliant, inspiring, filled with motivational lines that could make even a depressed person attempt a squat. For two weeks, he read it while hiding between tears, despair, and being ignored in the hallways. Then he reaches the final chapter. The last one. The grand finale. He reads it. And realizes that… THE ENDING IS COMPLETE TRASH. Like: The protagonist spends 500 chapters getting stronger, defeating empires, breaking the system… and dies by tripping on a rock. The end. Author: “I thought it was poetic (⁠✷⁠‿⁠✷⁠)” Ji-Hoon wanted to yeet his phone out the window, but remembered he was way too poor for that. So he did what any emotionally-destroyed young adult would do: Got wasted. Drank everything in sight. Mixed alcohol, anger, and literary disappointment. On his way back to the dorms… Completely drunk… Wondering how such a garbage ending could exist… He did NOT hear the classic, legendary, traditional, cliché ISEKAI TRUCK coming right at him. And then… BOOOOOOM!!! End of Lee Ji-Hoon’s life. Beginning of the legend of Theodor Umbralis.

WIMB (Who Isekai'd My Body???)

Note: (Disclaimer at end of abstract). Synopsis: "In the heart of the boundless Phantom Continent, rests a cursed region smack in the centre of all that is known, aptly named as the Central Region. A domain shrouded in perpetual gloom, despair clings to every shadow and its sole purpose seems to be crushing the souls and dreams of the unfortunate souls that take shelter upon its land. Life is a fight for Existence and Reality however cruel, is alas never what it seems to be. Whispers of precious ore, ancient artefacts and ruins of ancient civilisations only lead to ruin - factions descend to lay claim to these scraps like vultures, blades quench the thirst of the land with rivers of fire, which mirror the stars from afar that flicker in isolation with an insatiable desire. Amongst the chaotic lands, a tale starts. An adventure, a mistake, a ghost, a foreigner, a world, many worlds, alliances, betrayals, intertwined fates and dangers fraught at every corner. A protagonist that isekai's into a still living being in an earnest bid to grow stronger and a pitiful soul that longs for what was once share a mysterious bond. Destiny is calling, the line between the living and dead is blurred, the powerful shape Reality, however amongst this rollercoaster of events, the shadows vie for their own nefarious purposes, for the shadows are always watching. As if life wasn't a misery as it were, it hit Zuck Borris with the roll of a die - the odds were never in his favour. Firstly, a stranger gave him the old boot - throwing his soul out to the dogs in the streets. Then a mysterious voice started talking to him. Yet it didn't seem to be doing him any favours in reclaiming his flesh and bones. Meanwhile that backstabbing fiend didn't even notice his existence and already seemed to be bringing trouble to his body. Roland, however, was as calm as the ocean bed. Some ignorant fools seemed to be scheming against him. Ever since he answered that damn call, his life seemed to become more troublesome. However, perhaps there was some part of him that smirked at this opportunity, to gain control over his life with enough strength to face all that may come his way. Who protects this Reality, that Reality and everything in between? Can a mortal man spit upon the immortal obstacle that tightens its grasp to crush all beneath it? Can the rivers burn what they touch as the worlds collide and the sun is all but lost? Are answers always to be sought? Turn that chapter if you so dare..." Disclaimers: There will be content in this webnovel that covers potential sensitive areas to some, including - violence (fighting), abusive language (swearing / cussing), concepts of self-harm (some bullied characters may consider self-harm), divide in society (different factions/ power levels) & other similar concepts that usually apply to any cultivation/ sci-fi webnovel. Also, the start is more world-building focused, so do saddle in your seatbelts and work through the first 20 chapters to get a feel of what we have in store. :)

THE SILENT SYMPHONY

In a world that only hears shouts, his silence is a weapon. Orphaned and mute, Mateo Álvarez communicates through the beautiful game. After a tragic accident steals his voice, it grants him something else: an extraordinary ability to see the flow of play before it happens, a gift he calls The System. On the pitch, he is a prodigy, a conductor of silent symphonies, reading the game with a genius that leaves scouts and legends in awe. His talent earns him a destiny at FC Barcelona’s famed La Masia academy. Under the wing of mentors like Pep Guardiola and Lionel Messi, Mateo flourishes, his dream of one day representing Spain on the world stage feeling closer than ever. He becomes their golden boy, a symbol of pure footballing intellect, and the heart of a new generation. But when the club’s soul is traded for corporate interests, Mateo’s greatest strength is recast as a liability. To the new board, a star who cannot speak is a star who cannot sell. Betrayed by the institution he called home, the boy who dreamed in goals is cast out at sixteen, his future shattered. Now, Mateo must journey beyond the only home he’s ever known. Armed only with his preternatural gift and a resilience forged in silence, he must find a new team willing to listen not to his voice, but to his vision. His quest is no longer just for club glory, but to prove a devastating truth to those who discarded him: that the most powerful language in football isn’t spoken at all. The Silent Symphony is an unforgettable underdog story about the corruption of dreams, the beauty of resilience, and the unspoken bonds that define us. It's a journey across the fierce landscapes of European football to reclaim a stolen destiny, one perfect pass at a time. **** DISCLAIMER: The contents of 'THE SILENT SYMPHONY' is entirely a work of fiction.

Lifespan Gacha: I Trade My Life for Legendary Soccer Skills

Rio Valdes died on the pitch. Then, a blue screen offered him a devil’s bargain. Born in the slums of Jakarta, Rio possessed the vision of a hawk but the heart of a dying patient. Diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), his football career ended the moment his heart stopped beating during the most important selection of his life. But for Rio, death was merely the kickoff. Visited by a spectral mentor named Specter, Rio is resurrected with a curse disguised as a gift: The Lifespan Gacha System. The rules are simple, brutal, and absolute: Win a Match: +7 Days of Life. Score a Goal: +2 Days of Life. Lose a Match: -30 Days of Life. With a broken engine in his chest and a countdown timer hovering in his vision, Rio must force his way into the U-20 National Team. He isn't playing for trophies, fame, or patriotism. He is playing to buy his next sunrise. Armed with purchased skills like [Lightning Stride] and [Vulture's Eye], Rio must navigate corrupt scouts, hostile captains, and the crumbling limits of his F-Rank body. Can he conquer the World Cup and find the legendary cure? Or will the final whistle blow on his life before he even reaches the top? "You have 89 days left, kid," the ghost whispered, smoke curling from his spectral cigar. Rio looked at the floating blue screen. The numbers were ticking down, second by second. "And if I lose the next match?" Rio asked, his voice trembling. "Then the System takes the penalty," Specter grinned, revealing gold teeth. "You drop dead on the grass. Game over." Rio clenched his fists, feeling the weak, irregular flutter of his heart. "I don't care about the pain. Just give me the contract."
