Ryoma Takeda was once a rising star in the ring, an Interhigh champion, a golden boy with fists of promise. But one bitter loss on his pro debut shattered his confidence. A freak accident soon after stole his leg. His career vanished. His fiancée left him. And all he had left were reruns of that one damn fight… and a hundred different regrets. Then, just as he hits rock bottom, fate does the unthinkable. He wakes up ten years in the past, on the very night of his first professional match. But this time, something’s different. [System Initialized: Vision Grid Active] “Your eyes see the truth beneath motion. Use it well.” Armed with the Vision Grid System, a combat-assist module that turns his visual perception into tactical mastery, Ryoma now has a second chance. To fix his mistakes. To chase the career he lost. To protect the mother he failed. To fulfill the hopes of those who refused to give up on him. And to finally become the man they always believed he could be. But boxing isn't just a sport. It's war of bodies, of minds, of hearts. And Ryoma Takeda is done losing.

Vinnie was a thirty-four-year-old financial analyst in Hoboken whose life ended on a rain-slicked Turnpike, only to restart in 1999 at Saint Barnabas Medical Center. He has transmigrated into the body of the heir to a small, fractured crime family, just as Tony Soprano’s era is beginning to bloom. Bound to the Made Man Path System, Vinnie must navigate the deadly politics of the DiMeo crime family using a survival interface that tracks his Respect, Heat, and Sanity. Unlike the impulsive "cowboys" of North Jersey, Vinnie uses his meta-knowledge and Business Acumen to transform waste management and extortion into a data-driven empire. While managing a complicated alliance with a prosecutor and entertaining Christopher Moltisanti’s Hollywood dreams, he must stabilize his Morality Index to avoid the psychological rot that claims men in his position. Somewhere between a sit-down at the Bada Bing and a high-stakes territory expansion, Vinnie realizes the System’s ultimate goal isn't just survival—it’s ensuring that when the screen finally goes black, he’s the one holding the remote.

Synopsis of "Veil of Secrets" In a sprawling metropolis shrouded in ambition and deception, investigative journalist Alex Hayes is on a relentless quest for truth. When a series of mysterious disappearances begins to plague the city, Alex sees an opportunity to expose the dark underbelly of the elite—people who will stop at nothing to protect their secrets. Haunted by a personal tragedy linked to one of the missing, Alex is driven not just by a professional duty but by a deep-seated desire for justice. Teaming up with Maya Chen a passionate activist advocating for the victims and Sarah Hayes who is a skilled hacker with a talent for navigating the shadows of the digital world, Alex plunges into the depths of a hidden society where privilege meets peril. Their investigation reveals a web of corruption that extends to the city’s most powerful figures, including Marco Rossi, the charismatic leader of the elite society, whose charm masks a ruthless ambition. As Alex unravels the tangled threads connecting the disappearances, they encounter Ethan Blake, a mysterious informant with a foot in both worlds—the elite and the marginalized. With his insider knowledge and complicated past, Ethan offers crucial information but harbors secrets of his own. Together, they must navigate a treacherous landscape where trust is a luxury and every revelation could be a deadly game-changer. As the stakes rise and danger lurks at every turn, Alex’s relentless pursuit of the truth puts them at odds with the very forces they seek to expose. Each chapter unfolds a new layer of betrayal, ambition, and moral ambiguity, leading to a final confrontation that will challenge everything Alex believes about justice, loyalty, and the price of uncovering the truth. "Veil of Secrets" is a gripping tale of resilience and revelation, exploring the lengths people will go to protect their secrets—and the devastating consequences of uncovering them.

Charlie Thompson, seventeen, grew up in a poor and remote village and now makes a living as a deliveryman. He has only just recovered from the stab wounds that nearly killed him, and the treatment has drained almost all of his savings. Even so, he can feel his life shifting. When he was in the hospital, his jade pendant stirred and a stream of cultivation and medical knowledge poured into his mind. From that moment on, he knew everything was about to change.

In 2017, on the bench of the Paris Saint-Germain youth training camp, 17-year-old Oliver Thorne clenched the notice of expulsion in his hand. This Sino-British teenager, who was evaluated by the director of Paris Saint-Germain as lacking potential, was kicked out because of his average football talent. -------------------------------------------------- But the turning point of fate was hidden in the small German town of Hoffenheim, a mid-level Bundesliga team that extended an olive branch to him. Under Nagelsmann's coaching, Oliver tore off the label of "mediocrity" with almost self-abuse diligence. From the miracle of the dark horse in the Champions League to Arsenal's Premier League summit, he continued to conquer fans with the attitude of a new king, and staged a real version of the cool article on the football green field: the Champions League lore, the North London Derby single game... -------------------------------------------------- This prodigal teenager who was once abandoned by Paris later became the savior of English football, the only emperor of the Three Lions. England, which is full of superstars, no longer has disputes because of his existence. -------------------------------------------------- When his pre-match speech sounded in the Three Lions' locker room for the first time, and when the voices of 100,000 fans at Wembley Stadium shouting "Captain England" shattered racial prejudice, finally completed the most crazy revenge with England. After the World Cup final, he wore the Three Lions captain's armband and held up the World Cup trophy, announcing to the world that a new legend in the football world had been born. -------------------------------------------------- [Reupload because previous one was taken down] [Upload Schedule= 3 chapters/week= Tu/Th/Sat]

Ryu finds himself transmigrated into the world of Tokyo Ghoul. Granted the ability to devour the souls of those slain by his hands, he has no choice but to accept his new life; the path ahead of him is clear! As for the unification of humans and ghouls? Well.. Kaneki is still here! TL Note: No Harem, Daily Updates. Tl Note 2: After the main story concludes, the MC travels to the world of 'Akame ga Kill!' for a bit, it does not really affect the main plot and one can mostly ignore it if need be.

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. The MC's cheat comes with very real consequences. You don't reach Messi's level without some serious sacrifices. 3. There's romance, single female lead but it's a slow-burn. 4. 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. PS: A little spoiler: While the MC is of Chinese Origin, he won't play for China on the world stage for reasons that will be explained clearly. ***** Cover image generated by my esteemed self, that's the female lead.

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?
