Bab 164: You'll Still Need It

<Focus is a very useful skill but if I were you, I would avoid using it in the middle of a match unless you can deal with the pain and the energy drain>

'Okay, but if I can't use it in the middle, when am I supposed to use it then?' The goalkeeper inquired.

<During penalty shootouts although that would still be a problem>

'How?'

<The skill would have already worn out by the time you are called up for the second kick>

'It's that short?'

<Why don't you check and see for yourself?>

[ Focus ]

[ Skill duration: 4 minutes ]

'That's too short.'

<You need to level up the skill and increase its duration if you're going to turn it into a useful asset for penalty shootouts> Catherine explained before he could ask the question.

'Thinking about how I felt a few minutes ago, I don't think I can ever convince myself to use that skill again.'

<You can't get used to the pain by running away from it>

'Wait, I'm supposed to get used to the pain.'

<Yeah, that's how….>

'How what?'
