From Stable Boy to Soccer God

Alex, once hailed as the “God of Spirit-ball,” lost his younger brother after a rival kidnapped him and forced Alex to throw a match. Believing he could win first and rescue him later, Alex won—but his brother died. Crushed by guilt, he vowed never to play again and became a stable hand.Years later, during a noble tournament, a minor lord chose Alex as an opponent to humiliate him in a one-on-one death match. Alex defeated him with ease. The enraged noble demanded a rematch and used dark magic. Alex could have dodged, but Elysia, the city lord’s daughter, was nearby, so he took the strike to save her.The noble then tried to have Alex killed, but Elysia intervened, freed him, and offered protection on one condition: Alex must help her family win an impossible match. To protect those he cares about, Alex must return to the sport he swore to abandon.
