Leon stared at the spot where the System screen had just been, a faint tingle running through him. A new feature. He had no idea what it was, but the anticipation was thrilling.
He tried to activate it, to feel for it, but nothing immediately happened. He felt the same as before, his 'sight' still showing 'Potential' and 'Current' ratings. He shrugged, deciding to wait for it to reveal itself. The System usually had its own timing.
He spent the next few days in a whirlwind of post-season activities. There was a team celebration at Villa Park, a joyous affair where they lifted a symbolic "Champions League Qualifiers" trophy. Leon's mom was there, beaming with pride, taking countless photos. He exchanged hugs and laughs with his teammates, the bond between them solidified by their incredible achievement.
