Chapter 17

Good, and now... I've been challenged by a 'bear' for an unknown reason. He said about the forbidden fruit... but what could it be? did I eat something that I shouldn't in front of him?

It can't be helped, sooner or later I'll know the answer eventually. I've to accept his challenge or I might be in trouble later. But to play soccer... I don't have any experience in it, kicking the ball is out of the question. At least I know the rules and the formation so it might help me even a little.

He's already making his team now, and four of them is the sportsman who raises the hand earlier. In fact, Berges's group is all the sportsman... talk about unfair. And what about mine?

No need to say... even I can clearly announce my surrender after seeing the remaining guys. They look unreliable... same as me.

"H-hey, let me join your team too!" one of the guys look panic on his face as he says with quick

"No, me! I can play better than him!"

Those who remain are desperate to enter Berges's team. When I thinking of it, our guys are only 20 in number, and the soccer rules are each team requires eleven people to play. This is bad... if this keep continues... I will be a disadvantage in the game... a large handicap for me to hurdle

"Come, Klar. Join me" Berges now taking the most called prodigy guy, Klar. I cannot do anything for as I don't have the authority to keep him on my team

"Thanks for the invite, Berges. But it seems that I'll join Aiza's side after all."

"What do you mean by that? if you join me, we will easily destroy that guy"

"That's the more reason that I've to join him"

"What the?"

"Your business with him is none of my concern, but as a sportsman... I find it unfair just about looking at your team. You already took the advantage... knowing that Aiza can't play any sport, am I right?" he said it out loud until reaching the girl's place as I notice some of them are looking at us.

"Well..."

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

"So, without a doubt, I will join him to fight against you. And for that, we will fight 10 vs 10 in order to fight fair and square"

"Heh, no matters. Adding one true player doesn't change anything. The outcome of our result is already decided the moment you choose the wrong side, Klar"

He approaches his team and walks to the other side of the field.

Now I confuse here. Deg said he's the worst person but why did Klar even join me? I can't think of anything other than he is kind and reliable.

"Hey, Aiza. I already ask the teacher and he said he'll permit it. In addition, he asks the third year to be the assistant referee... so it will be like a real soccer game. Do you know the rules?"

"Yeah... I kinda know since I watching the game with my father"

"Good, so what position you'll be?"

Most of my teammates choose the position hurridly. The remaining position is midfielder and goalkeeper. My instinct tells me that they do not want to be a goalkeeper since that position frequently being hit by the shots... especially at the face and the 'sword'.

"Okay... so the position that still empty is... midfielder and goalkeeper. But I'm sorry Aiza... I can't create the flow of our game if I remain at back, so I must ask you to be the goalkeeper"

I can't ask more of his kindness. He's already agreed to join me despite the odd, so I can't turn down his wish.

"Sure! leave the position to me. I'll try my best to keep the ball out from past over me!"

"And leave the scoring to me, Lyod. I may not have a pure talent, but as the experienced player... at least I can harm our opponent by scoring" a glasses guy came to me while making a cool posing.

We wore the blue singlet with a number on its back... on the top of our clothes since we look like a secondary team to them. And I wearing the goalkeeper glove for the first time. It's quite big and kinda look strong.

And the view from my eyes. I can see all of my teammates' back from here. The heaviest job in this game is passed down to me, a total beginner and I'm the last line of a defence who will prevent or denied our enemy's victory. So the pressure is big.

Before I know it, some of the students who have the same PE time with us, are already showing on the sideline. Crap, now I'm nervous. It's not like this is the official game, this is just our PE class... so why do I feel so frightened.

For my team... Klar has become our captain and the opponent, of course, is Berges. From his standing... I'm quite sure that's the striker position. But my mind can't comprehend it. Can he run with his tall and big body? I mean... my father's favourite team has the speedy type of striker. So I thought that having a speed type player could make things easier.

No no no, throw away that kind of thinking. Soccer doesn't solely focus on speed alone, so I'm sure he must have a trick on his sleeves. Maybe he's special in destructive power alone... who knows.

Rule of conquering #3: always cautious and keep thinking forward to avoid any silly doom.

The referee now is already blowing the whistle, sign the game starts. Good, my mental is in the good condition. Genzo Wakabayashi.... lend me your skill!

"Now, come at me!!"
