章節 524: Reflection (2)

***

"Daichi, you've done well these past few weeks." Coach Narukami said, his expression unreadable.

While he did his best to keep a neutral face, inwardly he was rather pleased. It seemed that his actions of moving Daichi to the 2nd team had done its job, as much as it was a pain to play without him on the field.

"Thanks coach." Daichi responded respectfully.

"Mmm. I'm putting you back on the 1st team for the Jingu Tournament." He said, a smile finally breaching his iron features.

Daichi's eyes lit up, his expression not hiding his happiness.

"Thank you Coach! I won't let you down." He said, bowing respectfully.

"Alright, now go back and get some food."

After being waved off, Daichi made his way back to his dorm, his footsteps light.

BUZZ BUZZ

"Hmm?"

"We just qualified for the Jingu Tournament. Will you be playing?"
