บท 439: Preparation (1)

Ken and Daichi made their way down to the meeting room, arriving a little early. Seeing as how the door was still closed, they decided to wait in the lobby, only for more and more of their teammates to join up.

Masayuki looked as if he'd just been woken up from a nap as he fell back into one of the couch's. It wasn't just him, many of the players looked fatigued, which was understandable.

They had now been in America for 11 days, if they counted the day that they arrived.

Over this span, they had played 10 baseball games against the best U18 players in the world. The fact that they had been able to hold on this long and remain undefeated was a testament to both their skill and drive.

The group sat in silence as the team started to congregate in the lobby. While they would usually be chatting or messing around, everyone seemed to have hit a wall.

"It all ends tomorrow huh?" Daichi spoke up, his tone laced with hidden emotion.
