Football Lord - Chapter 3

After Tony had fully calmed down, the system continued to explain ” I’d advise you to start moving for the trials, as time is not on our side. Since we can mind communicate you don’t have to use your mouth in talking to me”. After hearing that, Tony then went on to prepare his clothes and his necessary kits which he would be needing for the trials while he and the system continued to communicate in his mind.

“Since I am a Football system, most of my abilities are related to football and general athleticism needed for football. I believe you time jumped to August of the year 2015, just when the last trials are about to kick off and the 2015/2016 of the premier league is about to begin” Tony checked his phone’s calendar just to be sure and was finally certain that he had time jumped as he saw the date as Saturday, 22nd August 2015.

After Tony went down stairs and saw his parents and his brother having breakfast an unexplainable feeling welled up in his chest. After trying to act normal, he greeted them and then quickly joined them for breakfast.

Tony’s father Mathew was a mechanical engineer, with the standard Monday to Friday job in a private firm. While Tony’s Mom Lucy was a full time housewife who took care of the family and the house. So both of them where basically free on the weekends and where free to take him to the trials including his junior brother George, who was still in high school and had no interest in playing football professionally at least.

On there way to the trials in his family’s Suv car, Tony had nothing to do except to try and understand the system better. “So how do we do this” he asked her in his mind, “From my understanding of the system window, once you are on a pitch, the various skills that are compatible with your body’s constitution and are higher that your present ability will immediately come up on the system window with there different conditions for you to achieve in other to gain those abilities.”

After considering what she said for some minutes, Tony then remembered “What is a system window, and how can I see it?” The system then replied ” Good question, the system window is like your profile. Where all your basic stats can be seen. The stats grade include S, A, B, C and D. With S being the best and D being the worst”. She then Continued ” For you to see your status window, all you need to do is think of seeing it or asking me to open it for you, You can give it a try now”.

Before giving it a try, Tony was really excited and almost began to drool as he began to think of all the hardwork he put into his football training when he was younger, and how awesome his stats should be.

After readying his mind, he then thought of the system window and the grades his eyes immediately saw nearly made him want to puke.
