CHAPTER 71 — "WHEN FOOTBALL BECAME ONE"
Date: September 21, 2023
Location: Barcelona, Spain
Árman Azevedo — Age: 13
---
HOME IN SPAIN — QUIET BEFORE HISTORY
The house was calm.
Not the kind of calm born from emptiness—but the kind that came from security.
Árman lived here now, with his paternal grandparents, in a quiet part of Barcelona. Old stone walls, wide windows, and a faint smell of coffee that never truly left the air.
No luxury screamed here.
It whispered.
Dinner had already passed.
His grandmother had insisted he eat properly—fish, rice, vegetables—no excuses, no negotiations. His grandfather spoke little, but his eyes watched carefully, not for football reasons, but for signs of imbalance.
They found none.
Árman was steady.
After showering, he stood in front of the mirror for a moment. Thirteen years old. Still young. Still growing.
Yet his eyes carried something settled.
Not arrogance.
Finality.
He lay down.
Exhaled once.
And the world folded.
---
THE DIMENSION — ABSOLUTE CONTROL
No sound.
No time.
No gravity.
He sat on the throne, posture straight, presence absolute.
This wasn't divinity.
This was ownership.
"System."
{Listening, Master.}
"Before anything else… consolidate."
A pause.
{Confirmed. Consolidation protocol ready.}
"Buy all football player templates that have made an impact on football."
No hesitation.
---
PURCHASE PHASE — FOOTBALL ITSELF
Templates activated.
Not names.
Essence.
• The instinct that appears only in the final second
• The vision that splits a defense before it forms
• The cold composure of legends in finals
• The chaos-bringing creativity of attackers
• The discipline of midfield generals
• The adaptability of total football systems
• The ruthlessness of elite goal scorers
• The patience of deep controllers
• The intelligence of off-ball gods
Every era.
Every philosophy.
Every role.
Then—
10000× Fold Multiplier activated.
Everything didn't just improve.
It transcended.
Then—
Instant Max Level Skill activated.
No gradual mastery.
No experience gate.
Finally—
Merge and Synthesis initiated.
Not stacking.
Not collecting.
Unification.
Football didn't exist as skills anymore.
It existed as him.
The process ended.
Silence returned.
---
THE COMMAND
Árman opened his eyes.
"System."
{Yes, Master.}
"Show me my football status only."
"Everything I possess.
Everything I bought when I started football.
Everything that remains after merge and synthesis."
A brief pause.
Then—
{Confirmed. Displaying Comprehensive Football Status Window.}

SYSTEM FINAL NOTE
{Master, your football existence is now complete.}
{There are no further football upgrades available.}
{Only legacy remains.}
---
Árman stood.
He didn't smile.
Didn't celebrate.
Didn't react.
Because this wasn't an achievement.
It was alignment.
The throne faded.
The room returned.
The night in Barcelona breathed softly through the window.
Tomorrow—
Football would meet something it had never truly faced.
Not talent.
Not genius.
But completion.
Árman closed his eyes.
Sleep came instantly.
