I have a friend, he races a Bugatti on the sidelines, dances a swan dance on the defense line!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They sang more and more passionately, eventually wrapping arms around each other and jumping along with the rhythm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a magnificent scene; all the fans sang the Song of Ma’el together, praising the young star for today’s top performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>David, who rarely participated in such activities, today yet overcame a psychological barrier, unexpectedly opened his arms, joining the crowd, jumping enthusiastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy’s parents also embraced each other, holding their child in the middle in their hands, making him sway in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elderly man in the wheelchair watched them with some envy; he really couldn’t join such a celebration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a few young Arsenal lads came over, refusing to leave him out... After Ma’el’s visit, the four had become the main characters here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s wrong with your legs?\" an Arsenal fan asked, looking ’mischievously’ at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Neck injury, no sensation.\" The elderly man in the wheelchair explained, not realizing the seriousness of the question, \"But nothing else, can’t feel even boiling water.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Untouchable?\" An Arsenal fan smiled, recalling a recently released movie featuring a wealthy French man with the same issue, though more severe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elderly man didn’t know the movie, shaking his head in incomprehension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, the fans understood, and several young, strong guys lifted the wheelchair directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh!\" The elderly man exclaimed, instinctively fearing he would fall to the ground, but it was fine; someone swiftly supported him ensuring his safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Da-da-da-da.....!\" As the next wave of melody started, the lads began swaying the wheelchair along with the rhythm, not as fast as the others’ jumping, but still giving the elderly man a sense of participation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey! Ah....!\" Initially surprised, the elderly man eventually adapted, smiling and enjoying the long-lost feeling, \"He’s on the sideline.....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He started singing along, becoming more and more excited, more and more involved, his eyes and nose turning red quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm... Ah....\" Chloe stood by, her face no longer worried or concealed, she instead openly smiled during this celebration, clapping along with the rhythm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on....!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Girl!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few fans quickly invited her to join the wave celebration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe stopped clapping, looking at them curiously yet hesitantly—this was the opportunity she once longed for but never could attain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, someone came up to take her hand, pulling her into the celebration lineup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a brand-new experience again; Chloe felt two arms wrapping around her shoulders, and the people beside her smiled at her, raising their eyebrows and nodding, inviting her to jump along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dum dum dum.....\" She no longer worried, jumped madly, sharing the joy of match victory with everyone, \"Ah.....!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She smiled blissfully, feeling nothing could be better than this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the field, Ma’el walked several steps forward, couldn’t resist turning back, seeing the scene he hoped to witness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe and David integrated into the celebrating crowd, no different from anyone else, achieving what they desired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elderly man in the wheelchair was lifted by a few lads, going wild... that little boy kept waving his shoes, seemingly unable to part with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma’el sighed, speaking to himself as much as to the four people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The feeling of fame was quite nice in all aspects... To those fans who liked you, sometimes just a little effort from you could change them a lot, even impacting their entire life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This feeling was intriguing, making one crave greater success, and cherish their feathers more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His feathers now were not just his body, but those fans who liked him, those fans who had him as their support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma’el turned around and continued walking forward, undoubtedly, he too was inspired today, gaining new motivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He loved soccer.\u003C\u002Fp>",1202,"2026-06-03T06:44:03.644Z","2026-06-03T06:44:07.339Z",1,"novelbin.me","d00e4bed3b838862de4ecc4f116293cea0b69d1dc8647c8840f41b6787940347","from-arsenal-to-the-ball-god-chapter-299","from-arsenal-to-the-ball-god-chapter-297",391,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-arsenal-to-the-ball-god-cover.jpg"]
