Become a Star - Chapter 167

Eric Maddox, a 70-year-old American retired football coach once hailed for his tactical brilliance, now forgotten by time—closes his eyes for what he believes is a normal nap in his quiet Florida retirement home.But when he opens them, he's not staring at ceiling tiles, instead, he's on a touchline.Wearing boots in the rain.With players running on the pitch, fans jeering behind barriers, and the smell of cheap turf pellets in the air.“What the hell is this?”He’s twenty-five again, but it’s not Earth. It’s a world where football reigns supreme. A world where the sport is religion, its practitioners, deities in cleats. Coaches are revered, players are worshipped, and even the kit man gets treated like royalty.But there's one catch: none of it is familiar. The clubs, the players, the leagues, the competitions, and even the currency—they're all different. Alien. Like waking up in a dream where the rules are the same, but the language is foreign.As if that wasn’t enough, the body he’s now in? A youth coach with a laughable win record, a looming divorce, and a measly fifty thousand in the bank that his ex-wife is fighting tooth and nail to take. All of it.Just when the spiral seems inevitable, a monotone chime pierces the noise.[Initiating Golden Finger…][…45%… 75%… 100%][System Integration Complete.][Welcome, host. You are now bound to the Pro Manager System. Objective: Dominate the Football World. A new era begins]From washed-up has-been to chosen one of destiny, Eric Maddox is about to trade arthritis pills for tactical boards, and shuffleboard for Prestigious Cup glory.Because in this world, tactics are power.And on this touchline, he’s about to become a god.

Zhang Ze travels to a parallel world, where people rely on the magic domain to fight monsters and become stronger to resist the invasion of monsters in the magic cave.

She entered the Demon Realm for her younger sister Zhang Ze, named Luo Sha, but accidentally activated the strongest SSS-level talent summoning technique!

Killing monsters can be summoned, the higher the level of summoning, the more monsters can be summoned, and they can be upgraded, it is simply against the sky!

In the Demon Realm, when other adventurers form a team of hundreds or even thousands of people to attack the boss, Zhang Ze has already led his army of summoned monsters to crush them all the way!

In reality, when countries were still worrying about dealing with high-level monsters, Zhang Ze singled out hundreds of high-level monsters, shocking the whole world!

“Who the hell is Rakshasa? Breaking the record of human beings exploring the Demon Realm all the way, it’s about to break through a hundred floors!”

“Big Xia Kingdom has Zhang Ze, and has already become the most powerful country in the world! If this person cannot be won over, he must be eliminated!”

“What? Zhang Ze single-handedly picked out ten fifth-level Demon Realm powerhouses? It’s over… Sooner or later, the Great Xia Kingdom will dominate the world!”

‘The moment I faced its enormous eye, an unbearable headache struck me. Just by facing it, the amount of information exceeded what my brain could handle.’

Excerpt from ‘Things I Encountered in Space’ by Terra race space adventurer ‘Con Arche’.

…No, I was just looking out of curiosity…?

In the Solarian Empire, people were divided by their blood. The nobles enjoyed their life in wealth, with fine wine and amazing food. They reigned supreme over the commoners. The only reason they were able to do this was that they had knowledge of the most powerful force in the world - magic. The nobles controlled their knowledge from easily going to commoners, making it harder for them to learn magic.

Leo, a young orphan in Solaria, had an incredibly powerful affinity for magic. He didn't even know about it because he could never learn magic- he was too poor to try and learn from any magic academies. He was just trying to survive the streets of Solhaven until he found the lost tome of the Arcane Emperor.

"I can beat a 7th Circle Mage."

"Wow! You must have trained for many decades. How old are you?"

"17."

"..."

The world was going to be turned upside down.
