It is said, some people are born with unordinary gifts that a normal human should not or should never possess. One of these gifts is being a medium. A medium who has the ability to see the spirits, ghosts, curses, apparitions or say he is present both in the mortal world and the spirit world. Now, what would a normal person do if he starts seeing beings with unnatural appearances, frightening faces, broken bodies, hovering around? What would a normal person do if he is the only one who can see them? What would a normal person do if nobody believes what he is going through? What would a normal person do when all his nightmares and childhood scares take shape before his eyes? What would a normal person do when he gets pulled and dragged under his bed by an unidentifiable, an unexplainable creature?What would you do? Would you run to your mother, or your father? Would you pray to God to save yourself? Would you give up and let them take you away? Or... Would you fight back??? Those who are lucky, those who are fortunate, those who have the choice to not believe in something they can't see. Just imagine, how lucky you are.

The tortured souls, the evil spirits, the malevolent ghost who enjoy and love tormenting, torturing, cursing alive humans, just imagine how much suffering can they inflict on you, which they want to and love to do. The unfortunate people, with the gift known as medium, born with the ability to live in both worlds, do you believe they survive for long? Some do who fight back. The fight, the battle of living and dead has long been going on. The battle in which one wants to merge the two worlds while the other one who wants to keep their world clean of such impurities so they could live a normal and merry life. The battle field is a globe, the dead has got numbers while the living just got few. But, living are aided by divinity and their beliefs. But, it's about time, for the ultimate entry in the field, a pair of mother and son, one is a mad medium and another is a hyper believer. Are you interested to learn how they made the spirit world fear their name?

In a gritty world where fallen football clubs struggle to rise again, Mystic Dark inherits more than just a name—he awakens a hidden system tied to his bloodline, one that grants him the tools to rebuild his family’s shattered legacy. With a bubbling AI assistant, access to magical currencies, and a mysterious past life’s knowledge of overlooked talents, Mystic sets out not as a player, but as a coach determined to revive the Dark Elites, with knowledge from his past life. Fantasy meets football in a high-stakes race against time, corruption, and forgotten dreams. --- This is just me trying to write about the boys (my friends) I watched play ball—so much raw talent, yet where I come from, it’s hard to get the recognition they deserve. So I’m using this medium to tell their stories, based on everything I’ve witnessed, shaped by my erratic mind, with a touch of fiction, a storyline that never existed but I created—and most importantly, a dash of fantasy. I’m adding magic to soccer. I hope it all comes together and that everyone who reads this enjoys the journey.
