A lowly beggar, a sacred and noble prince, a monster that is the enemy of the world—if you have three paths before you, which one will bring you more happiness? Thales had no answer. All he knew was that he had arrived in a magnificent and turbulent other world, facing a future of nightmare difficulty: a glorious empire had perished a thousand years ago, a corrupt royal family was beyond redemption, the legendary holy war was shrouded in mystery, and the divided world was in turmoil. Thales had nothing. All he had left was his unwavering self, his courage to survive against all odds, and his uncompromising creed. "A true king does not honor his lineage, but his lineage is honored because of him." Darkness washes away the light, and fire forges true steel; thus begins the story of the forbidden prince.

"Mr. Hu Lai, in today's football world, the space for strikers like you who can only score goals is getting narrower and narrower... But despite this, you have still achieved remarkable success. What is the secret to your success?" On a winter afternoon, Hu Lai was showing reporters from all over the world the highest honor he had just received when one of them asked him this question. Facing the reporters' gazes, Hu Lai's thoughts drifted back to that afternoon in middle school, when he stood alone on the sidelines watching his classmates play. They wouldn't let him play, thinking he was just there to cause trouble. He also recalled his coach's stern words: "Hu Lai, if you can't put in ten times the effort of others, your talent is just a worthless stone." And a disdainful voice: "Modern football demands more and more from center forwards, more and more well-rounded players. What use is just shooting?" Finally, his thoughts settled on that moment. Night was already faintly visible in the eastern sky. In the center of an abandoned open space overgrown with weeds, a girl said to him earnestly, "Hu Lai, you actually have talent, and a very impressive talent! Because you know where the goal is!" Hu Lai stared into the girl's eyes and saw the sunset behind her reflected in them. The sunlight reflected in my pupils, flowing, burning, and condensing into a halo, as if trying to melt myself into this light. Bringing his thoughts back to the warm winter afternoon, Hu Lai smiled slightly at the enthusiastic reporters and said, "Because I know the goal is right there."
