[Mainnet King] It’s not too much to use magic to play ball, right?

Even nine barriers could not completely stop the 'home run' that filled Watanabe with all his strength.

As the barriers were shattered one after another, Yukimura's expression remained unchanged, but there was also a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

"boom!"

Looking at the small ball that broke through the first eight obstacles and hit the last barrier hard, but still seemed to have strong power, Yukimura chose to fight back with a two-handed shot.

After arriving at a suitable position and adjusting his posture, Yukimura clapped with both hands, and then waved hard.

Following Yukimura's actions, the tennis ball was successfully returned. Although this ball seems ordinary, its placement is very tricky.

But Watanabe can still catch the ball. However, due to the angle, Watanabe was unable to exert his power, and it was more difficult for him to fight back. Finally, this ball... is an 'opportunity ball' for Yukimura.

"boom--"

The iris-haired boy swung the racket, and the coat he wore swayed a little with his movements, but it never fell off. As the young man swung his bat, the faceless figure behind him also moved, but the amplitude was small. If they hadn't been watching, not many people would have noticed.

"15-0, Yukimura scores!"

Watanabe was silent when he heard the referee's voice. There was no expression on his face, but the arm holding the racket was indeed covered with veins.

"Senior, continue." Looking at Duck. Watanabe, Yukimura said softly.

Bang, bang, bang...

The sound of a racket hitting a tennis ball against the ground echoed across the court.

The pressure in Watanabe's heart continued to increase. It would not look good if he got zero shutouts in both games.

From being arrogant and complacent at the beginning to hoping for a tie, and now hoping that he won't lose too badly... Duck Watanabe's mental state can be said to have taken a huge step back.

This change was also noticed by the delicate Yukimura opposite. This change is not a good thing for a player!

However, he will help after the game is over, or tell the No. 1 directly, but... Yukimura glanced thoughtfully at Byodoin sitting in the audience, and saw his eyes looking at Watanabe. He was vaguely dissatisfied and frowned, so he guessed that the other party also discovered something 'wrong' with Watanabe.

It seems that this can save trouble ~ Yukimura thought to himself.

……

In the stands, among the high school students, it was not Byodoin who first noticed something was wrong with Watanabe, but Irie Kanata and Tanejima Shuji, who had outstanding mental power and insight.

Among these two guys, Shuji Tanejima likes to watch Byodoin having fun as long as it doesn’t affect the major events, so he plans to talk about Watanabe’s situation after the game. This was Irie's original plan, but the shadow of Tokugawa suddenly flashed in his mind, which made him become a little bit more hesitant to speak.

Looking at Watanabe, who had been given a clean sheet by a junior high school student, Irie laughed mockingly twice, and then said in a seemingly gentle but actually mocking tone, "Byodoin and your people are not good either~ That's the mentality... "

Having said this, he glanced at the other party with some unfinished thoughts.

After hearing what Irie said, Byodo-in, who was a little angry at Irie, looked straight at Watanabe. As time passed, Byodo-in also discovered something was wrong with Watanabe's mentality.

Hence the scene where Yukimura saw Byodoin frowning and looking at Watanabe with dissatisfaction in his eyes.

However, although what happened in the audience did not affect the arena, Watanabe, who was being watched closely by Byodoin, did feel a slight... murderous aura.

When he looked around to find the source of the "murderous aura", he naturally discovered that Byodo-in looked like "it hates iron but cannot become steel".

Duck.Watanabe:……

God wants to kill me! ! !

Watanabe's expression collapsed for a while, but he quickly recovered.

Seeing Watanabe's change of expression, Yukimura suddenly felt that this big man was quite interesting.

……

"boom!"

"boom……"

"boom--"

……

Watanabe, who had experienced the baptism of the eyes of Byodo-in, was even more nervous in his originally a little hopeless mentality.

This also led to his frequent mistakes in serving, and he often failed to hit the position he wanted.

"boom--"

"2-0, Seiichi Yukimura scores on Court No. !"

As another ball fell, Yukimura scored another point.

This won't work! Although I hope to win, it is also fun to compete against strong opponents! He really didn't expect that his mentality would have such a big impact on Watanabe. Yukimura was quite helpless. Did he choose the wrong opponent? He was obviously a member who participated in the expedition...

Although such an opponent is easier to deal with, I hope the second set can be more intense...

Yukimura, who was thinking about how to change this situation, accidentally met the eyes of Byodoin. Yukimura narrowed his eyes slightly and made a decision in his heart.

After signaling to the referee to request an intermission, Yukimura walked to the bench again. This time, Amangong Lan pulled Yanagi and Sanada to the vicinity early.

On the other side, after Yukimura signaled for an intermission, Byodoin also stood up and came to the vicinity of Watanabe.

"Ha--Idiot!" Byodoin, who didn't know how to speak well, started to curse, but this was also because Watanabe's performance was too disappointing.

Watanabe held the water glass and hesitantly called "Boss..."

"As the No. 3 member of the First Army and a former official member of the French U-17 team...is this your mentality?" Byodoin said with a look of 'hating iron but not steel'.

Hearing this, Watanabe didn't know what to say... What could he say? Being beaten by a kid younger than himself... and his powerful 'home run' had no effect at all... Thinking of this, Watanabe lowered his head and became more and more silent.

"It's just two to zero, and you are like this now..."

"You haven't lost yet!"

"As a player, you never give up!"

……

After noticing that Watanabe was becoming more and more silent, Byodoin suppressed his anger and tried to persuade him.

Listening to the voice of Byodoin in his ears, Watanabe slowly returned to his original state.

He quietly wiped the tears from his eyes, looked at Byodoin with a naive smile and said, "I understand, boss~"

"Hmph——" After hearing this, Byodoin understood that Watanabe had already figured out why he had figured it out and had no intention of delving into it. However, the Byodoin was quite concerned that a member of the expeditionary force would have such a problem. He snorted dissatisfiedly.

Seeing Byodoin like this, Duck. Watanabe scratched his head naively. He knew that Byodoin also cared about him.
