My Goalkeeping System

What is worse than being the worst team in the world? For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper. He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly. The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence. After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates. He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills. He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box. He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision. [ Welcome Dave ] [ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ] A female voice read out the messages. This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

Last Match Day

'Your ball magnet isn't strong enough to stop those kinds of shots, it's still at level one.'

"But I can enhance it and make it stronger, this is my dream, after all, right?" Dave said with both of his fists on the ground.

'What's the point of enhancing it here when you can do the same in the real match, have you suddenly forgotten why you're doing this?'

"Yeah, you're right." The goalkeeper said as he slowly got up from the floor. "I have to use everything I can use in the real world. Tell me, what will happen if I activate my shot-stopping attribute?"

'Well, since this is your dream and you can easily reverse the effects after it had happened, why don't you activate it and see for yourself?'

"Okay." He said before letting out a deep sigh.

[ Shot stopping attribute activated ]

[ All stats have received (+10) boost ]

"Is that it? Just a boost."
