Now with death’s cold hands grasping him, he hoped for a short peace before the fiery rings of hell. But that was not the end of his journey. ******* “Hold up.” “What is that infernal noise?” “Oh my goodness! It's driving me crazy! And it's not stopping!” Mordred sprang awake, slamming his fist on the digital alarm clock on the nightstand. 'What in Merlin's Beard is happening!?', he thought when he realized something. Well, a lot of things. First of all. How the heck is he alive? Second. What is a digital alarm? That's when memories that didn't belong to him flooded his head. They felt familiar but everything was wrong. How the heck is Morgan Le Fay his sister? She was his aunt! And how is the wizard Merlin so young! “Oh. I get it now”. He, Sir Mordred has been reborn in the body of a different version of himself, in a modern and futuristic world where he is the youngest son of Arthur Pendragon. But even in this world, He is the hated son of the High King. "Now what?", Mordred realized that the world he is in now is different from his previous one, with the only familiar details being the names of the people he knew. “Oh? Are you still reading?” Mordred smiled, looking at the readers. “Well, how about you join me on this new crazy journey in a crazy new world of heroes, villains, monsters, and even gods?” “Are you ready?” "Let's go!" ********************************************** The story is loosely based on the Arthurian legend. I am only using the popular names but the plot is different. The story is purely fictional with a few things from the actual legend being incorporated along with some stuff from other popular works. The characters may have different personalities from the original ones from the legend. There will also be names that may seem quite familiar as well. The cover image doesn't belong to me.

Takumi Usui, a naturally gifted yet self-doubting midfielder, has just joined Skyline FC Academy, a world-renowned institution known for producing football legends. Though his passing range and tactical vision set him apart, Takumi struggles to find his place among the country’s brightest young football talents. On his first day, he’s immediately thrown into intense competition, facing the brutal reality of a system that demands not just skill, but heart, mental toughness, and relentless perseverance. In Skyline FC, the bar is set impossibly high. The academy’s legendary coach, Sora, pushes every player to their limits. The players are talented, but Takumi quickly learns that talent alone won’t make him a starter—he has to command the game, control the tempo, and become the midfield general his team needs. But it’s not just the football field that challenges him. Off the pitch, he navigates the complexities of friendships, rivalries, and a blossoming romance with Saki Hoshino, a kind-hearted girl from his school who offers him emotional support even when he feels like giving up. Surrounded by fierce competition from rivals like the hot-headed striker Shinji Tanaka and the cocky midfielder Kai Kuroda, Takumi’s journey is one of personal growth, grit, and relentless training. He will need to master advanced football strategies—like the "Triangle Passing System," "Quick-Tempo Transitions," and "Counter-Pressing"—to rise through the ranks. But it’s not just about winning on the field; it’s about transforming his mindset, overcoming self-doubt, and discovering what it truly means to lead from the heart. From the first whistle to the final goal, Takumi must learn that being a hero doesn’t always mean scoring the winning goal—it’s about creating the opportunities, setting the pace, and most importantly, never giving up. Will Takumi become the midfield maestro he dreams of? Or will he falter in the face of overwhelming odds? The beautiful game isn’t just about skill—it’s about heart.

"He will be the greatest player to ever grace the field," declared the coach of Maximus Orion to the media, his voice brimming with certainty. It was Maximus' first time in the public spotlight—a young prodigy whose raw talent and undeniable skill were already the talk of the city. The brilliance in his game was visible to anyone watching.

There will be romance and the novel will be a little combination between my first and second football novels. MC will be the cousin of Jamal Musiala if anyone is interested. This is my third football novel. The first was trash, the second was okay, and I hope the third will become great. I am not the best author, but I will try my best.

Her life is simple, predictable, and occasionally interrupted by bus conductors yelling, “Oru ticket thara ma!” But even in her sea of struggles, she holds on to one secret: a hopeless crush on her classmate Aadav since first standard.

On the border of a kingdom named Caradel in a deep and great forest a man could be seen running, being chased by a group of men wearing armor as arrows flew in the air. One striking true to its target striking the man in the shoulder nevertheless the man continued running. The man named Baranor, a young man who had orange eyes black hair and tanned skin with a slight scruffy beard was running for his life while thinking to himself. 'How did this happen?!' Baranor running out of air feeling exhausted, and the blood flowing from his shoulder running down his back mixing with his sweat, Baranor stared in front of him only to see a drop off nearly 100 meters in front of him. The men behind him also seemed to notice that Baranor was running out of time, as nearly every single one of them let out a grin, as they approached the edge Baranor slowed to a halt, as did the men behind him. "Give up prince! Just accept what's to come, after all the throne is no longer yours to inherit!" Said the man leading the soldiers "I will never! Not after what you did to my men, not after what he did to my father!" Baranor replied "Hmph! So be it, I offer you life just for you to accept death" The man stated "Life? Life! you offer me death now or later, do you really think i'd be stupid enough to hand over the throne after witnessing your coupe against my father!" Baranor replied "Hmm, it seems your unwilling even till the end, Very well, Archer's! Fire!" The man commanded Baranor was now stuck between a rock and a hard place either jump off the cliff to a seemingly doomed fate or accept the fate that the man in front of him was offering. As he thought what he should do he heard the command the man spouted feeling the stress of the situation and his adrenalin nearly running out he decided. He'd rather die by his own hands than give the man in front of him that satisfaction! As he thought this he immediately took a step back falling to his doom. The man not expecting this looked rather confused only for his face to twist into a grin. 'Finally! Good riddance my dear prince!' The man said as he looked as the boy fell through the tough branches of the trees below Baranor looking up at one of the men that betrayed him thought to himself 'Is this how i really die? Well what can i say, i tried, i gave it my all.......' As Baranor was accepting his fate he thought back on his life only to be filled with rage 'No! I refuse to accept this laying down! Quintin I will come for you! I will come for all those who dare raise their sword to their king! No matter what! even if i have to accept a deal from the devi-' that was the last thought Baranor had before he hit the ground When Baranor hit the ground he didn't even feel the pain, just the shock, as it traveled through his body as his eyes slowly blurred he built up all his will to not pass out 'I refuse! I have to keep moving!' Baranor thought as he turned his body over back up When Baranor was starting to lose hope he started to hear faint whispers as he looked at the direction the whispers came he saw a cave, almost as if the whispers were drawing him in he forced himself to crawl and keep crawling, no matter what Baranor refused to stop crawling. Finally when Baranor arrived to where he heard the faint whispers they became louder almost screaming in his head as he saw it, a ring, resting on what looked to be an ancient place holder for it. Baranor grabbed the ring and lay on his back as he gathered his strength and said "My Fate! Is my own!" As he slid the ring on his finger. -------------------- -Author here Just a quick disclaimer! This novel is heavily inspired by lord of the rings if you couldn't tell also it's because i only ever saw one other story on a ring.
