Sports channels around the world were announcing that Helder Xerxes had woken up from a coma.
Many journalists had gone to the hospital where Helder was staying.
They wanted an interview to get information from Helder's family.
His family had only one thing to say to reporters who wanted to be interviewed.
"It only took days for you to forget about Helder while he lay in a coma. Did you remember when Helder woke up? All you want is news that will set the agenda…"
So they refused the interview outright.
[ARE YOU PROUD OF YOUR FAMILY, HELDER?]
[ONLY YOUR FAMILY WAS ALWAYS WITH YOU...]
"Yes I know." said Helder.
"But I want to ask you a question." he continued.
"What happened in the world while I was in a coma?"
Again there was silence.
"Why do not you answer?"
There was silence again.
"Understood. So it was a lie that you said you were my friend?"
The silence was broken.
[NO HELDER XERXES...]
[SYSTEM WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR FRIEND AND PROTECTOR...]
[BUT THE QUESTION YOU ASKED IS POINTLESS…]
"Why is it pointless?"
[BECAUSE YOU MUST FOCUS MORE ON YOUR STRENGTH FIRST…]
[HAPPY WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SYSTEM IN THE LAST FEW DAYS…]
[BUT STILL NOT ENOUGH…]
"What else do you want me to do? I've been working on the strengthening exercises you mentioned for days."
"Am I still not strong?"
[YOU HAVE STRENGTHENED…]
[BUT THE SYSTEM WANTS YOU TO BE STRONGER…]
[HELDER XERXES IN SLOW STEPS…]
[IF YOU WANT TO CLOSE TO THE HIGHEST TOP ASAP, YOU ALWAYS MAKE WRONG…]
[NEVER FORGET THIS…]

1 week had passed.
Doctors were still baffled.
Helder Xerxes was now in a condition to be discharged.
He could stand up on his own.
He could even run at a slow pace.
This was truly a miracle for the medical world.
All examinations were clean.
There were no marks of impact on his skull.
There was no suspicion of internal bleeding.
"Can we discharge it?" ' one of the doctors asked.
Others thought.
"I have never seen a patient recovering so fast and getting stronger." said a doctor among them.
They also discussed the risks of this at length.
However, by a majority of the votes, they finally decided to be discharged.
Helder and his family were happy with this decision.
But his family was uneasy.
Helder had recovered, but what he would do in the future was uncertain.
Would he return to football again?
Or will he choose another profession?
That's why his family decided to talk to him.
The mother asked sadly, looking into her son's eyes.
"What do you intend to do, Helder?"
Helder immediately replied.
"I'll be back."
"But how are you going to do it? You've been in a coma for years. No one even cared about you. While you were in a coma, it was as if the world football had forgotten you." said his father angrily.
"Better…" Helder said.
"What good is that?" her father asked.
"Revenge…" Helder simply said.
One word was enough.
[SYSTEM IS SURPRISE BY HELDER XERXES' ANSWER…]
[SO YOU WANT REVENGE HELDER XERXES?]
[SYSTEM STARTS TO SMILE…]

About 2 weeks had passed.
Helder was at home.
Just as he thought, no one from the football world called him.
A forgotten football player is doomed to perish.
No one helps the person below the abyss…
"I did what you told me and I became stronger. Am I still more incompetent?"
[MORE PATIENCE HELDER XERXES…]
"How much longer should I be patient?"
"You asked me to trust you and I do too…"
"You've had me do hundreds or even thousands of push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, squats for days."
"Even I forgot their number."
"Not to mention the way you got inside my brain and gave me orders."
"I am in the dark doing all those power-ups."
"As if I was not in the world."
"But now I'm tired."
[SYSTEM NEVER ORDERED YOU HELDER XERXES…]
[SYSTEM IS YOUR ONLY FRIEND…]
[YOU WILL RELY ON ME FOR YOUR FUTURE…]
[NEVER FEAR…]
[YOU WILL BE THE BEST WHILE I'M WITH YOU…]
"Let's say I got stronger as you said, so which team will want me?"
Once again there was silence.
"Why would anyone want someone like me who has been in a coma for years and hasn't played football for years?"
Helder was upset when he asked them.
[CALCULATING PROBABILITIES…]
"What are you doing again?"
[CALCULATING PROBABILITIES...]
"I'm telling you. Hey!"
[CALCULATING PROBABILITIES...]
[POSSIBILITIES HAVE BEEN CALCULATED…]
[SYSTEM FOUND THE MOST SUITABLE FOOTBALL AGENT FOR HELDER XERXES…]
[SYSTEM REQUESTS HELDER XERXES TO CONTACT HIM…]
"Football agent?"
"Oh right…"
"In my football career before my coma, I didn't make a deal with anyone. I just trusted my ability and did everything myself."
"So where is that person?" ' Helder asked eagerly.
[SYSTEM SMILE…]
[IN THE PUB…]
"What?"
The system found a football agent for Helder Xerxes! But what is that person like? Helder's adventures will continue without slowing down! Thank you for reading and commenting^^
