In my last life, I could run really fast. But I turned down an offer from the track team because I wanted to play ball. Soccer had no future in this country, though. My family said, "As long as it's a ball sport, that's fine, right?" So I joined the women's volleyball team.
In this life, I was reborn as a boy named Chigiri Hyoma. I love soccer, but I'm a first-year middle blocker on Inarizaki's volleyball team. Thanks to my volleyball experience from my past life, I managed to win the national championship alongside my teammates. They called me a genius, but I knew I was just a despicable cheat, lucky enough to sneak into a feast of monsters with the extra decades I'd lived.
On the night we won the championship, a System suddenly appeared before me.
"So, if I become the tragic, beautiful, and strong person you described, I can gain a talent related to soccer?"
[Breaking news: This afternoon, a criminal attacked people in Chinatown. A young man stepped in and subdued the assailant, but suffered severe injuries to his hand. We understand he is also a first-year starter on Inarizaki's volleyball team...]
"You don't have to feel sad for me. Even without a hand, I can still play soccer." The pink-haired boy waved to his teammates and resolutely walked through the gates of Blue Lock.
