"For millennia, mankind and the djinn have been locked in an endless war of occupation. As a result of this conflict, the number of lives lost is immeasurable as nations rose and fell over time. Various factions and armies rose to face the djinn threat in order to prevent the occupation of the human realm by the hostile djinn invaders. But as of the last five hundred years, there has been a stalemate between the two with no side taking any decisive action over the other. That is until a series of seemingly small encounters would result in a butterfly effect that would change the course of history forever. Whether that was for better or worse was still yet to be decided."

Enzo has lived a hard life. First, when he died on Earth and woke up as a dirt-poor orphan in Kanto, a world where a Trainer License costs more than a life.

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 ---

patreon.com/SleepingHostage for more chapters Takatsuki Sen traveled through time. Good news: He had no attachment to his own world. Bad news: He traveled through a world of collapse. Good news: There was a system. Bad news: The system was written by himself. As an ordinary person, Takatsuki came to Changkong City, where the survival rate of ordinary people was infinitely close to 0. He faced a major choice in life. Should he escape from Changkong City before the third collapse and live his life as an ordinary person, and live in fear, and then wait for the protagonists to solve everything? Or should he personally throw himself into the collapse, interfere with the main storyline, and use his own power to seek a hope of survival? Takatsuki chose the latter. The only reason for the boy who had no worries in this world to survive in this world was to survive itself. World 1: Honkai Impact 3rd World 2: Jojo's World 3: Honkai Impact 3rd World 4: Danmachi
