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.**

Note to Readers: This is an LGBTQ+ story about ManXMan love. If that isn’t your space, this is your polite warning ,proceed no further. SaraswatiChandra Bhattacharya has always lived under the shadow of superstition. Born into a world where fate is measured by loss and misfortune, he has been marked as different since childhood. Betrothed twice, only to lose both to tragedy, he has learned that joy comes at a distance and that the color white can be both armor and exile. Confined within the walls of his grand family estate, SaraswatiChandra finds freedom only in the strokes of his pencil, creating fabrics and designs that dance with life, colors forbidden, patterns untamed ,a silent rebellion against a life that demands restraint. Far away, in the towering steel and glass of the city, Ashish commands empires with precision. Brilliant, calculating, and magnetic, he moves through the world untouched by superstition yet bound by expectation. His life is meticulous, his desires controlled, until subtle currents hint that the universe has more in store than boardrooms and contracts. Two men, separated by distance, culture, and circumstance, move through parallel lives ,one defined by constraint, the other by authority. Yet fate has begun to weave invisible threads between them, threads that will test tradition, defy expectation, and ignite a passion neither could anticipate. Love Beyond Convention is a story of courage, creation, and defiance. It is about the quiet power of resilience, the rebellion of the heart against rules it cannot accept, and the transformative magic of love that refuses to be contained by society’s narrow definitions. In a world of whispers, judgment, and old beliefs, two souls will discover that the heart is far bolder than any superstition and far freer than anyone dares to imagine.

If i knew that ruling a universe would be this tiring, I would have preferred to retire in my original world…sigh… .

Years later, when he would finally hold the “Lifetime Achievement Award” in his hands, Makoto Yasui would recall one very specific afternoon—the afternoon he was sent flying ten whole meters… By a horse girl. At the time, he had only recently gotten his Central Trainer’s license. Unfortunately, his lack of experience was obvious, and many horse girls turned him down without a second thought. And so, after being rejected yet again, maybe his mind wandered a bit too much. While waiting to cross at a red light, he spotted a child nearly step into oncoming traffic. His body moved before his brain could catch up. The kid was fine. He was not. Because he got hit. Not by a car, but by a horse girl. She had black hair, red eyes, and a matching black tail. And she slammed into him at full sprint. Thanks to years of quiet self-training—secretly guided by memories from a past life—he managed to twist midair and land without too much damage. Still, getting launched like that wasn’t exactly part of his daily routine. The horse girl, on the other hand, was completely panicking. “I-I’m so sorry! Are you hurt?! A-are you okay?!” “I-I'm Kitasan Black! A first-year at Tracen Academy! Pleased to meet you—wait, no, that’s not what I should say right now!” “I—I mean—I’ll take responsibility! I’ll take full responsibility for this!!” That’s how it all began. The girl’s name was Kitasan Black. And this was the start of everything. = = = = Note: Some character backgrounds and settings have been reworked for narrative purposes. This version expands the world while staying faithful to the spirit of the original. New readers can enjoy it as a mix of sports drama and school life.
