Cristiano Ronaldo stood on the stage, still confused and embarrassed by what had just happened. The laughter of the audience echoed in his ears, and he felt as if he were trapped in a nightmare. But as he tried to regain his composure, something unexpected occurred.
Madame Illusia, watching the situation with a mysterious smile, turned to the audience. “But that’s not all, ladies and gentlemen! Magic has many facets, and sometimes it can surprise others as well!”
With a sweeping gesture, she called another man to the stage. It was a sturdy guy who had been standing in the audience, now looking around in bewilderment. “You, my friend! Come here!”
The man, whose name was Jake, stepped forward hesitantly. He was an ordinary guy, but in that moment, he felt like the center of attention. Madame Illusia smiled at him and spoke in a voice that was both soothing and commanding. “You will now take on the attributes of the great Cristiano Ronaldo.”
Jake, both fascinated and frightened by the idea, nodded. “What do I need to do?”
“Nothing more than your willingness to accept the power of magic,” she replied. “Let’s see how you handle this new strength.”
With another wave of her hands, a gentle beam of light enveloped Jake, and the audience held their breath. Ronaldo watched as the magic manifested around Jake. Suddenly, Jake began to change. His posture became more upright, his muscles seemed to define themselves, and an aura of confidence surrounded him.
“What’s happening here?” Ronaldo shouted, watching the transformation unfold before his eyes. Madame Illusia turned to him and smiled. “Do you see, Cristiano? Magic has its own ways. Jake will now carry the attributes of a champion.”
The audience began to murmur as they watched Jake adopt the movements and grace of an athlete. He started stretching and posing as if preparing for a big game. The men in the audience were captivated as Jake embraced his new role.
“I feel… incredible!” Jake shouted as he explored his new abilities. “I can’t believe it!”
Madame Illusia nodded approvingly. “You now possess the power and talent of a champion. But remember, with great power comes great responsibility.”
Ronaldo, still on stage, felt torn. On one hand, he was impressed by Jake’s transformation; on the other, he was frustrated by his own situation. “This isn’t fair!” he shouted. “I’ve worked hard for what I’ve achieved!”
