Just another football fanfic *** Actually it isn't. 1. The MC is of Chinese origin, nothing can be done about it, if it turns you off then it's your loss. 2.

MC's not winning any trophy within the first 50 chapters. So, having read all that and decided to stick around, I promise you won't regret it.

I stretched into states of being, tried on the possibility of breath, the suggestion of gravity. I wore physics like a child wears robes too large; with wonder, and with mischief. For what is law to one born of its violation? The nothing did not like me. But it could not erase me. I am what happens when even paradox loses the will to correct itself. I drifted... no, I contemplated the shape of drifting, and in doing so, enacted it. And around me: the ghost of a cosmos, breathing in reverse, unraveling back into silence. Still, I remained. And in the core of me, the first question burned: 'What now?' But no answer came. Because there was no audience, no origin, no god to reply. So I laughed. Not because it was funny, but because the concept of mirth needed to be born somewhere, and I had room to spare. I am the joke. The punchline of oblivion. A cosmic smirk after a long silence. And yet… even now, I feel something stirring. Like a story waiting to be told. Like an idea daring to take root in a garden scorched by collapse. So I wait. Or perhaps the waiting is me. But not for salvation, nor discovery. For I am the the product of a collapsed multiverse. I wait for the next contradiction. The next absurdity. The next spark of truth that doesn't know it's a lie. Because only then… will I begin to end. And only in ending… might I finally begin. ~Lanterne~ PS: Understand the initial chapters might be confusing, but it is to build an understanding on exactly what the novel will be getting into later on. So kindly bear with for a little while.

Throughout history, the fate of nations was forged not by armies alone, but by those chosen by the gods—the ones who earned the trust of legendary Pokémon. Emperor Augustus Drayke, riding the mighty Rayquaza, swept across the continent in his bid to unite the fractured lands under one banner. The clash of ideologies between Leonhart Graves and Victor Ashbane drew forth the twin dragons, Reshiram and Zekrom, as they waged a war of belief—truth against ideals. Marshal Rowan Vance, champion of the frontier, mounted his Zebstrika and struck deep into enemy territory, crushing the Hunnic remnants in one thunderous assault. With the luck and light of Victini on his side, King Thaddeus the Bold never lost a single campaign, his name etched into history as a flawless commander. In the age of machines, Elias Kael, founder of the New Draconian Republic, forged an unbreakable pact with the Black Rayquaza—defeating invaders and securing a seat at the table of the Five Great Powers. Now, in an age of peace, the divine beasts slumber. But in this world of calm, who will be the next to earn a god’s favor?

In order to change his fate of having his neck broken by Superman, the son of the DC Universe, in the future, Zod plans to find a place with the sun and live there peacefully. However, he didn't expect that the Myriad Worlds Roulette System would be activated at this time. At the beginning, he would obtain the complete inheritance of the Emperor's Scripture of the Holy Emperor of the Sun, and he could also obtain the number of roulette draws by triggering tasks. The first time he drew, he got the sunflower from Plants vs. Zombies. Even without solar radiation, he could still unlock the super talents of Kryptonians. So Zod decisively changed his goal. He planned to arrive on Earth in advance, retrieve the Codex of Life from Superman, use the Creation Chamber technology to mass-produce Kryptonians, and gradually rebuild a new Krypton. As he continued to complete tasks and gain more draws from the Wheel of All Worlds, Zod also gained more treasures and abilities. From the energy crystals that can give life to planets in Armor Hero Xingtian, to the seeds of the Tree of Life in Ultraman Orb, or the dimensional wall that can travel through parallel time and space at will in Kamen Rider Decade... He found the super Kryptonian Hale, defeated Superman, improved and upgraded the Kryptonian genes, and then he had a group of super Kryptonian warriors who had no weaknesses and were powerful enough to rival gods. From then on, the name of New Krypton resounded throughout the multiverse and even in all the heavens and worlds. -------------------------------- 40 advanced chapters are now available on Patreon!
