Name: [Football] A Youngster’s Sign-In Days at the Bernabeu
Author: A Lifetime of Holding White

Synopsis

An Ke got a sign-in System, but he has to choose his sign-in location at random.

He gets three refreshes, each generating nine random locations.

To maximize his benefits, An Ke knows exactly what he wants:

No ancient buildings.

No interstellar settings.

And definitely none of the other weird stuff.

He just wants to stay on modern-day Earth as a permanent resident, enjoying the luxurious life of internet access, air conditioning, and food delivery.

It isn't until his third refresh that he spots a familiar building.

The sacred place in his heart: Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

Not only can he have internet, air conditioning, and food delivery at the touch of a button, he can also go watch a match at the Bernabeu!

What football fan could turn down a life this wonderful?

He confirmed without a second thought.

The System's prompt sounded immediately:

[You have chosen to travel to Bernabeu Stadium to complete your sign-in. This choice cannot be changed.

Please note: As your chosen location is on a low-level intelligent planet, we will comply with the Convention on the Protection of Low-Level Intelligent Planets and abide by this planet's laws. Please use legal means to travel to Bernabeu Stadium and complete your sign-in.]

An Ke was dumbfounded. What did it mean, “legal means”?

Did it expect him to buy a ticket and go in on every match day?

The next second, he understood what “legal means” meant:

He had turned into a little kid!

A pale-skinned little kid!

A six-year-old born in 1976, visiting the old Real Madrid training complex and trying out for the team!

An Ke: “...”

So he had to pass the tryout among a bunch of six-year-olds and get accepted, huh?

But before that, he had one tiny complaint:

System, he could understand turning him into a kid, but he could not accept becoming a pale-skinned kid!

*

A few things to know before reading:

This is a story about a little kid!

A youth academy story!

It starts in the 1980s and 1990s, and he is teammates with Guti in the academy.

It may be a very, very long time before the protagonist starts in a match at the Bernabeu.

In a sense, this is the story of the protagonist going straight from Real Madrid's kindergarten to its first team.

Important: The kid grows up, and there will be romance!!! Readers who only want a simple child-rearing story, please take note!

Theme: Youth training systems are an important foundation for the development of competitive sports.
