The only thing standing between a dead-end job and football glory? A holographic interface and a lot of hungover plumbers. Danny Walsh is going nowhere. At twenty-six, his life is a monotonous cycle of night shifts at a Manchester convenience store and escaping into the digital world of Football Manager, where he is a tactical genius building championship-winning teams from nothing. In the real world, he is just another guy with a dead-end job and a dream that feels impossibly far away. A mysterious notebook gives him an impossible edge: the power to see the hidden attributes of football players. It’s a party trick no one else can see, a useless superpower for a man going nowhere. But in the broken, overlooked talent of Manchester's gritty leagues, data is destiny. Danny holds a winning ticket, if he can only learn how to read it. And if this cursed gift doesn't break him first. --- For fans of Player Manager, Football Manager, and system novels, this is a character-driven, tactically rich, and hilariously authentic journey from the bottom of the pyramid to the very top. The beautiful game is about to get a system upgrade. Sports Fiction | System Novel | Football Management | Progression Fantasy ---

The world didn’t end in fire. It tore. A Nexus experiment meant to study dimensional energy instead punched a hole through reality, unleashing Rifts, monsters, and mana into a modern world that had no defenses—and no second chances. Two months later, humanity is still standing. Barely. Quinn was supposed to be ordinary. Quiet. Observant. But exposure to the Nexus explosion changed him. He can feel mana—not as power, but as presence. Flow. Pressure. A language the world itself seems to speak.all thanks to the system he awakened amidst the Apocalypse. Riley survived the same disaster with no such sensitivity. No whispers of energy. No control over mana. Instead, his body adapted—stronger, faster, tougher—refined by pain, momentum, and instinct. Recruited into a Nexus training facility designed to forge weapons rather than heroes, they’re thrown into a brutal two-year training program alongside other survivors—some gifted, some altered, some already ranked far above them. Here, strength is measured. Growth is earned. And failure is fatal. As humanity regroups and fights back against increasingly dangerous Rift beasts, Quinn must learn to integrate a mysterious System that tracks—and judges—his evolution, while Riley is pushed to physical limits that threaten to tear him apart before he can surpass them. Rivals rise. Instructors test them. The gap between survival and supremacy grows razor-thin. As they climb the ranks. By the end of the training, only one thing is certain: The next wave would be filled with a threat greater than the monsters from the Rift and it won’t just test humanity’s resolve. It will decide who stands at the front when the world breaks again.

BLACK TRACE In modern Italy, power does not rely on open violence. It moves through institutions, intermediaries, and systems designed to protect themselves from accountability. Ethan Cole survives by understanding that structure. He does not seek justice or redemption. He studies how influence flows, where pressure fractures, and what it costs to remain unseen. With no superhuman strength or moral certainty, he relies on restraint, calculated aggression, and violence that is fast, deliberate, and permanent. As criminal networks adapt and institutional forces recalibrate, Ethan is pushed into increasingly visible spaces where anonymity disappears and consequences compound. Survival is no longer about hiding—it is about choosing when, and how, to be seen. BLACK TRACE is a dark, realistic crime thriller about systems that erase responsibility, violence that leaves lasting scars, and a man who becomes dangerous not because he wants control, but because he refuses to disappear. In a world built to correct anomalies, Ethan becomes something the system cannot resolve. A trace it must carry.

Alex is an invisible and awkward high school student until one day, a mysterious, game-like system appears in his mind: the "Flower Collection System."

Every success makes him more charismatic and confident, but each "Collection" drags him into more complex and absurd challenges. Alex must learn to balance his real life with his new, secret obsession with the game, or risk losing his identity in the process.

[WSA Entry 2026] In the year 2035, thousands of mysterious white cards suddenly began falling from the sky. No one knew where these cards came from, or what they were exactly.

The world ended without leaving any answers. When fragments of the Otherworld began to merge with reality, existence itself collapsed. Time, memory, and form lost their meaning, and war became nothing more than the final echo of something much greater. Maxinni Isla fought until the end. She saw what no one was meant to see. And then… everything ceased. She wakes up in a hospital room. Twenty years before the end of the world. Haunted by memories of a reality that has yet to happen, Maxinni realizes that the Otherworld wasn't destroyed—merely forgotten. Its vestiges still whisper beneath the surface of the present, waiting for the right moment to return. Not every end can be avoided. Some are just waiting to be remembered.

Ren Wu died once. Two thousand years ago, he was the Imperial Chancellor who governed Hell itself—an Auditor who enforced cosmic law, taxed gods, and sentenced demons with a brushstroke. Then Heaven and Hell cooperated. He was assassinated before he could finish signing a decree meant to fix the cycle of reincarnation. Now, he has awakened in the body of a dying factory owner at the bottom of the modern Underworld. His wealth is his health. His business is survival. His enemies are corporations, gangs, ancient clans—and the government of Hell. While others cultivate to become immortal heroes, Ren Wu cultivates assets. He monopolizes supply chains. He weaponizes contracts. He turns gangs into employees. He turns ancient cultivation manuals into corrected instruction manuals. To Ren Wu, modern cultivators are not warriors. They are illiterate workers using corrupted translations of Hell’s employee handbooks. As Ren rebuilds his corporate empire, fragments of his sealed memories return… Why did his archaeologist parents send him an ancient coffin before vanishing? Why does the Administration desperately want him erased? Why does every ancient family’s sacred art trace back to Hell? To uncover the truth, Ren Wu must do what he does best: Acquire political shields. Build unions. Exploit loopholes. Rewrite laws. Because in this world… You don’t punch judges. You don’t sue gangsters. And you never fight the system. You become the system.

In a world where dreams shape power, those known as Somniarchs manifest reality-warping concepts born from their sleep, visions fueled by desire, fear, and trauma. When a quiet high school student named Rei triggers a catastrophic anomaly without even knowing how, the world takes notice. Branded an unregistered threat, Rei is taken by a secret government division that monitors Somniarch activity. But Rei is different. Unlike others who draw power from dreams, he cannot sleep without reliving a nightmare, one where his sister nearly drowned, his parents died, and a nameless demon first whispered to him. That demon never left. As Rei is pushed toward his limits in a world that classifies people by danger level, he faces a truth far worse than imprisonment: his power does not come from dreams… but from something awake. When survival demands a choice, Rei is offered a pact known as The Covenant, a bond that grants terrifying power at the cost of his mind, his autonomy, and eventually his humanity. Because in this world, dreams don’t save you. They consume you. And some nightmares are never meant to end.

"I am not one person. I am a bridge of broken glass." To the world, Lin Yan is a hollow vessel—the "Idiot" son of a fallen dynasty, sold in marriage to the ruthless CEO Lu Jingho. For twenty years, he hasn't uttered a word, his skin recoiling from every touch as if it were a brand of fire. But inside the silent tomb of his mind, a war is screaming. When a fatal accident at age six tore his soul in two, one half stayed to rot in a world of shadows, while the other was cast into a neon-hell of the future. There, he was "The Architect," a legendary hacker forged in the fires of 21st-century torture and digital isolation. Now, the two souls have been slammed back together.Lin Yan has returned with the power to rewrite reality, but his mind is a jagged landscape of psychological trauma, where the ghosts of his future agony haunt his every breath. He thinks he is suffering in secret. He believes he is a ghost protecting his family from the shadows. He is wrong. Unbeknownst to him, the "Origin Code" in his blood is broadcasting his every heartbeat, every traumatic flashback, and every silent plea for help directly into the minds of the Lu family. As Lin Yan wages a cynical, invisible war against the "Ravens" who stole his father, Lu Jingho is forced to listen to the soul-shattering symphony of his husband's pain. In a world where his only comfort is the "Refrigerator"—the cold, steady presence of a husband he thinks he’s fooling—Lin Yan must face the ultimate terror: What happens when the man who cannot be touched finds out his whole world can hear his heart breaking?

Five years ago, Blackmask - the hero and hope of humanity who vanished 5 years ago without a trace. Now, he has returned, but he cannot remember what happened during those lost years, nor why he disappeared. As he struggles to regain his memories and powers, he discovers that the world is still in danger, and the threats he once fought have grown stronger.

This man began as a completely unremarkable defensive midfielder. Then, by chance, he learned a bit about organizing play... then a bit about carrying the ball forward... and then free kicks too. And just like that, the football world got lively. Kaká and Cristiano Ronaldo loved playing with him—handsome, eloquent, and most importantly, the guy who covered their backs so they could focus on attacking up front. Messi had a love-hate relationship with him. Every time he played against Barcelona, he got fired up—and somehow always dragged Messi into playing brotherly football. All number 8s loved playing alongside him—his coverage was everywhere, his pressure resistance was second to none. He was the ultimate shield in front of center-backs, the perfect partner to midfielders, and the strongest wall behind the forwards. Xabi Alonso was his mentor, Mourinho his boss, and Pogba? Just his junior. Whenever a reporter asked him how he got so good, he'd always reply: “Train like hell. Give it everything you’ve got!” Thank you for the support, friends.
