Chapter 500: Congratulations on your debut
Knock! Knock!
Just when he was about to explore his rewards, he heard a sudden knock on the door. Upon hearing the knock, his expression turned bitter.
The smile on his face waned away while at the same time, his eyes became dull.
Just who the hell was knocking on his door?
Finally, when he could explore his rewards, someone had to come and interrupt him.
All he wanted was to be left alone to explore his rewards. Was it too much for him to ask? The system panel was right in front of him.
'A moment of peace... Is it too much to ask for?' He cried out inwardly while turning to look at the door.
"Hiro..., Are you inside?"
Someone spoke from the other end of the door. The voice sounded rather familiar to Hiro. Upon hearing the voice, he reckoned who it was- Tatsuki.
Recognizing the owner of the voice, he gritted his teeth as he muttered, "Yes...,"
"Great... Then can you open the door? Or are you playing with your little brother?" Tatsuki joked.
His voice sounded rather jolly. If only he knew how irritated Hiro was, perhaps he wouldn't be speaking such cheerfully.
Hearing him, Hiro's nerves twitched. Just what did he want at this hour? Though they had agreed to celebrate their victory together there was still some time left for the banquet.
Normally, he wouldn't have thought much about his jokes. But as he was onto something important at the moment, he couldn't help but feel irked by his jokes.
Yet still, Hiro kept himself composed.
Tucking his fury, he inhaled deeply to calm himself. But there'd better be something important or else he would suffer his fury.
Getting up, he trudged to the door and hastily unlocked the door.
Just as he opened the door, several people jumped on him, chanting loudly.
"Congratulations Hiro!"
Hiro subconsciously took a step back while his eyes widened in bewilderment. Just what was going on? He was startled.
Dazedly, he swept his glance as he tried to figure out his situation.
Almost the entirety of the squad had shown up before him and they were congratulating him for some strange reasons.
At first, he was confused and startled by their happy faces.
But when his gaze landed on the cake Naoto held in his hand, understanding dawned on him. They were here to congratulate him on his debut.
Something that should be done before the start of the match.
Yet still when he found out the reason for their approach, a sensation of warmth rose in his heart. At the same time, moisture began to form in his eyes.
Hiro was touched by their display.
"Congratulations Kid, you've played a great game," Kenji said with a smile.
"You were really great today," Kaoru added.
Previously after the end of the game despite his marvelous performance, they hadn't said a lot about his performance which was rather weird.
At that time, though he felt a little strange, he didn't think much about their attitude. It seemed that the attitude of the national players was quite different.
But now, upon receiving such a warm gesture, he couldn't help but feel moved.
For a while, he remained still at his place, unable to speak anything. Overwhelmed by emotion, it was simply too much for him to speak.
"Why aren't saying anything?" Tatsuki asked revealing a grin on his face.
Hearing him, Hiro looked at him deeply, his eyes glistening with elation. Then he said while stammering a little, "Than... Thank you, everyone"
"Huh? We didn't hear you? Can you talk a bit louder?"
Someone from the crowd said.
They could vividly see that he was touched by their gesture, so much so that he was having trouble speaking. Yet still they didn't spare any mercy on him as they insisted him to speak.
Well, he was the hero of today's match.
So, it was only natural to hear some words from him. After all, he was the center of the attention.
Increasing his voice, he once again thanked everybody who showed up, "Thank you, everyone. I'll continue to work hard so that we can bring the trophy home"
This time, he had already calmed himself. So, he was able to speak his heart.
"I hope you will bring us the trophy"
"Yeah, we're counting on you"
The crowd responded to his commitment. They weren't expecting such a bold statement from him. But now that he mentioned it how could they let him go easily?
Everybody was already fully aware of his ability to remain calm under pressure. So they didn't think much when pinning their hopes on him.
"Now, shall we cut the cake?" Naoto asked as the mood lightened.
"Who has the knife?" Tatsuki raised his voice. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
"What about the plates?"
"I snuck some from the dining hall hahaha...,"
"I swear if you didn't play football, you'd make for a great robber..., hahaha"
Joking they got inside to cut the cake. Celebrating in the hall would be a little too much after
all.
"You deserve it, Hiro."
"Looks like they'll be having fun all night today."
"I don't see Kubo anywhere?"
"Now that you mention it, I don't see Ryo either"
"Perhaps they are exhausted. So they didn't show up."
Some of the players were live-streaming the whole celebration. In the comment section, many viewers were expressing themselves, talking among themselves, and being part of the
celebration.
Most of the live-streams had already amassed more than a couple thousand viewers among which many were home supporters while some were foreigners.
"What are they celebrating for?" Someone asked in English.
"You see that guy with the knife? They're celebrating his debut." another responded to their
comment.
"But who is he? I entered the chat since Kenji was live-streaming."

"Remember his name, he's Takahashi Hiro. Someday, he'll become the best player in the
world"
"You jest! First, tell him to become the best player in Asia then we'll talk"
Though most of the comments from the home fans were positive still not every comment was
positive. There were many negative comments as well.
But one thing was certain, Hiro's popularity had begun to rise.
