Chapter 1: A New Life, A New Goal
The first thing Istieak Ahmed Tonmoy noticed when he opened his eyes was the disorienting mix of familiarity and alienation. The room was small, a typical teenager's space in Manchester. Posters of football legends adorned the walls—Cristiano Ronaldo in his prime Real Madrid kit, Lionel Messi holding the Ballon d'Or, and a younger Kevin De Bruyne in a Wolfsburg jersey.
The second thing he noticed was the voice.
> [System Activated: Welcome, Host! Template System initializing… Loading Newbie Gift Package…]
Tonmoy blinked rapidly, trying to make sense of the strange sensation in his head. Was he dreaming? The last thing he remembered was being a 28-year-old football analyst in 2024, stuck in a dead-end job and endlessly lamenting his missed chances as a player. He had always been obsessed with football, but life had dealt him a cruel hand. Injuries, lack of resources, and bad decisions had crushed his dreams of playing professionally.
But now…
> **[Newbie Gift Package Unlocked! Congratulations, Host! You have received:

Tonmoy's heart raced. This wasn't just a dream. Somehow, he had been transported back in time and reborn in the body of a 16-year-old Bangladeshi boy living in Manchester. A boy with untapped potential and a chance to rewrite his future.
He got up and walked to the mirror, staring at his reflection. The face looking back at him was youthful and unfamiliar, yet it was his now.
"Alright, System," he said aloud, testing the waters. "What can you do?"
> [The Template System allows you to unlock and integrate skills, attributes, and traits from the templates you possess. Each template represents the peak abilities of legendary players. Would you like to activate a template?]
Tonmoy grinned. "Activate Prime Kevin De Bruyne."
> [Activating Prime Kevin De Bruyne Template… Integration Level: 10%]
A rush of knowledge and muscle memory flooded his mind. Suddenly, he could see the pitch differently. Passing angles, spaces to exploit, and the perfect weight for a through ball—all of it felt natural.
He clenched his fists. "This… this is insane."
But he didn't stop there.
"Activate Prime Cristiano Ronaldo and Prime Lionel Messi."
> [Warning: Activating multiple templates simultaneously may cause physical strain. Proceed?]
"Proceed," Tonmoy said without hesitation.
The flood of abilities was overwhelming. Ronaldo's explosiveness, Messi's agility, and De Bruyne's vision intertwined within him. His body tingled with newfound power, though it was clear his current physical state couldn't handle everything yet.
> [Integration Level for Messi and Ronaldo: 5%. Physical training required to unlock full potential.]
Tonmoy took a deep breath. He had a long way to go, but he was ready.

Later that Day
At school, football was the great equalizer. During lunch breaks, the students gathered on the field, splitting into teams for a quick match. Tonmoy had always been an average player, more of a benchwarmer than a game-changer. But today, he was determined to make an impression.
As the game began, he felt the templates guiding him. A loose ball came his way, and he instinctively controlled it with Ronaldo's finesse. He dribbled past two defenders with Messi's close control, then sent a pinpoint cross into the box with De Bruyne's precision.
His classmates stared in disbelief.
"Oi, Tonmoy! Since when could you play like that?" one of them shouted.
He just smiled.
This was only the beginning. He would work harder than ever, train relentlessly, and make his way into Manchester City's academy. With the templates backing him, Tonmoy wasn't just chasing his dream anymore—he was determined to become one of the greatest footballers the world had ever seen.
And this time, nothing would stand in his way.
