8. Broken, Yet Burning

 He finished the season with 87 goals and 21 assists across all competitions in Spain, breaking Cristiano Ronaldo's debut season goal tally (33 goals in 2009–10) and becoming the youngest player to win the Pichichi Trophy. This remarkable achievement not only solidified his place in the history of Spanish football but also set the stage for what many expect to be a legendary career. Fans and analysts alike eagerly anticipate his future performances as he continues to develop his skills and break more records.

 

Caos comes back home, leaving shoes at the porch. Before getting back to training, he checks out his social media, finding the following quote by Proust: "Now there is one thing I can tell you: you will enjoy certain pleasures you would not fathom now. When you still had your mother, you often thought of the days when you would have her no longer. Now you will often think of days past when you had her. When you are used to this horrible thing that they will forever be cast into the past, then you will gently feel her revive, returning to take her place, her entire place, beside you. At the present time, this is not yet possible. Let yourself be inert; wait till the incomprehensible power... that has broken you restores you a little, I say a little, for henceforth you will always keep something broken about you. Tell yourself this, too, for it is a kind of pleasure to know that you will never love less, that you will never be consoled, that you will constantly remember more and more."

 

Caos deeply breathes in, bringing his hands to his eyes to say, "The more a man suffers, the more chaos he creates in his life. My only pain when I am really sad is to love and to be loved back." As he spoke those words, a heavy silence enveloped the room, filled only by the sound of his own heartbeat. "It's a paradox," he continued, "to crave connection yet feel burdened by its weight, but perhaps that is the true essence of being human."

 

Caos searches for his training place, in which he usually trains to become a Deus Strenia sum, and then he gets into the room where he usually checks his muscles to make his body speedy, dominant, feathery, and defined. As he gazed at his reflection, the determination in his eyes intensified, reminding him of the sacrifices he had made. Each drop of sweat that fell was a testament to his commitment, fueling his desire to harness both strength and grace in his pursuit of becoming a true Deus Strenia. In his sadness, he trains forthwith, diligently, to overcome his last state. His resolve solidified with every repetition, pushing him beyond the boundaries of pain and doubt. He envisioned the moment he would stand victorious, embodying the essence of a true champion, and he refused to let anything stand in his way.
