บท 225: End of Ultimate Showdown

While all of his teammates roared in ecstasy, Hiro stood still at his place, blankly staring at the ball. His lips tightly shut and his eyes reflecting disbelief, Hiro had a complicated look on his face at the moment.

On one side, his teammates were rejoicing. On another side, opposing players were grieving. And then there was Hiro who was neither happy nor sad, frozen at his place with a complicated look on his face.

Alas! He had failed the quest.

After some moments, Hiro then turned his attention towards the side where his teammates were clustered, celebrating joyously.

There in the crowd, the centre of attention was Renji.

Big wide smile on his face and his eyes gleaming with joy, he was letting out euphoric roars while waving his hands at the crowd, celebrating his goal.

Looking at Renji's big wide smile, Hiro started recalling the moment where he witnessed the failure of his quest and aslo the failure of his meticulously crafted plan.
