Bab 149: Set piece taker...

The crowd erupted into a chorus of cheers, heralding the arrival of the supersub, Wick and Kan beside him.

A chant of "All hail the supersub!" echoed through the air as the injured player, supported on a stretcher, and Emily made their way out of the pitch. Wick and Kan stood in anticipation, waiting for the official exit of the departing players before they could make their entrance. The unspoken rule of not invading the pitch mid-game was to be respected.

"Still some similarities, I see," Kan noted the semblance of the rule of the game with how it was played his past life.

As Emily approached, her gaze avoided Kan, a subtle gesture he noted but decided to overlook. His focus was fixed on winning her favor to advance his quest and ascend to the next level.
