บท 138: System Upgrade

Sweaty, exhausted and out of breath, players of Maebashi looked completely devastated. Losing 7:0 in their own home ground, Maebashi's players couldn't even bring themselves to lift their heads up to face their fans.

Just like a withering flower, they looked dull and lifeless. Even so, their captain Naoya was still trying his best to cheer his teammates.

"It's alright. They turned out to be a little too strong for us to handle. But what matters most right now is to learn from our defeat." Faking a smile on his face, Naoya tried to cheer his teammates who were strolling in the pitch like zombies.

Although, Naoya himself was devastated by the loss, he continued to maintain his composure outwardly. Being the captain of his team, he couldn't allow himself to act devastated.

Meanwhile opposite to Maebashi's players, players of Kawasaki were celebrating their victory along with their reserve teammates.
