August 13th.

It will be the morning after successfully breaking through the qualifying league.

"Ugh, it's a beautiful day this morning!

I wake up and watch the morning sun from the balcony in my room.

Today is Olympic Day 8.

It's going to be brilliant sunshine.

"Hey, Coata. If you get too far, you're going to fall again."

"Ah, Mr. Hyoma, good morning! Right, we have to be careful not to fall!

The leopard in my room woke up, too.

Say hello and get ready for the morning.

"It's time to go mornin ', Courta"

"Yeah, right, Mr. Hyoma. Looking forward to the menu this morning!

"Don't eat too much today because this athlete's village is all-you-can-eat, Courta"

Leave the Athletes' Village private room and head to the breakfast venue.

(Athlete village... it feels like the Olympics!

Yes... we have been staying in the Olympic athlete village for a few days now.

Let me briefly describe the athlete village here.

"What is the Olympian Village"

Where players, officers, etc. sleep during the Olympic Games.

There are many entertainment facilities as well as living and training centers to stay in.

They recreate the cities they usually live in, including banks, restaurants, convenience stores, fast food stores, hairdressers, hospitals, internet cafes, discos, game centers, karaokes, and parks.

The number of guests during this period exceeds 10,000, combined with athletes and team officers.

It's more of a small city than a village.

At the Osaka Olympics, a player village was built on the tip of a landfill.

We also stayed in such a player village as a Japanese soccer player.

"I'll have it!

I arrived at the restaurant at the breakfast venue.

I say hello well.

Morning meals are basically buffet style.

It's a way to get your favorite dish and eat it on a large plate.

"Yeah, yummy! It's delicious today! That's Athlete Village Restaurant!

Officials from around the world stay in athlete villages.

For this reason, there were chefs in the restaurant who catered to the world's cuisine.

For the sake of Japanese authority, superior chefs are waving their arms.

"All right, let's try African food next! Aim around the world!

I'm on my way to get a replacement.

All Athlete Village restaurants are all-you-can-eat.

No matter how many guests eat, it's free.

For me to be a foodie, it's just a dream world.

"Hey, Coata. You eat too much again."

"Ah, Elena! Morning!"

I was eating food from all over Africa, and a blonde girl came.

It is Elena Vasmeyer, accompanying the German football representative.

Good morning, Coata.

Good morning, kittens.

Shortly afterwards, Mr. Julian and Mr. Leonardo also came.

"Ah, good morning, Julian!

'Good morning, too, Mr. Leonardo!

I use Japanese and Italian separately to greet him well in the morning.

Take extra food and go back to your seat.

"No, this way, it's really fun for everyone to have breakfast!

It's me and Leopard at the same table right now, the Japanese team.

Elena and Mr. Julian. German representative group of brothers and sisters.

Plus the Italian Leonardo, a total of five.

It is a group of three nationalities.

Since the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, this member of the Athletes' Village has always had breakfast.

By the way, the conversation is based on Japanese.

Except for Mr. Leonardo, Japanese is perky, so it did.

Besides, Mr. Leonardo can't speak well of Japan, but he can almost hear the hearing.

He learned to hear Japanese at some point.

"When we're all dining together like this, you remind me of Christmas party time!

When I was studying in Germany, Christmas was always an invitation to Elena's house Christmas parties.

The last year, the five of us had a great time partying.

Precisely six of my sister's sunflowers.

"Actually, some sunflowers, I could reproduce them."

"Athletes' villages are tightly secured, so you can't do that, Courta."

"That's right, Elena."

The Athletes' Village, as a counter-terrorist, is laid with fairly strict security.

Only athletes and officials can enter, not even family members.

Failure to present the relevant person ID is so severe that even officers cannot be admitted.

"But if Aoi is in the Olympics in four years, the Japanese women's soccer rep is confirmed, right, Kota?

"Is Aoi the representative of Japan, Mr. Yulian? No, that's right, I don't think I can do that!

Exactly to Mr. Julian's prophecy, I answer with my neck swept aside.

Sunflower is indeed a good football player.

But I can't imagine being in the Olympics, as my brother.

"Oh, that little sister has more natural talent than Kitten thinks. If I had been born a boy, I'd be scouting for the Uvetos FC right now." '

"What, to Mr. Leonardo ⁉ and to Uvetos ⁉"

Oh, my God, he even praised my sister for that young command tower of the Uvetos FC under heaven.

If that's what they say, I'm gonna change my mind somehow.

Maybe my sister was such a great football girl by then.

'It was a treat. Then Atashi will return to the Italian leader. "'

There's only one Mr. Leonardo, take a seat first.

I feel like I'm leaving my seat a little earlier than usual.

There's not supposed to be a game today, but what the hell is wrong with you?

'Unfortunately, today is the last day we can have a friendly breakfast in the athlete's village, kitten. The day after tomorrow, the enemies will be with each other. "

"Ah..."

I see.

Is that what you mean?

The Italian representative, like Japan, was breaking through the qualifying league.

And the first game of the tournament by the eight teams was Japan vs. Italy.

I mean, me and Mr. Leonardo suddenly compete.

"As one who also bears the blue (azuri) of the Italian leader, I will let you win, kitten, child tiger"

Mr. Leonardo's tone feels light, as usual.

Behind those eyes, however, was a raging light of readiness.

It is a firm and strong will, as the historic Italian representative of football.

"Neither I nor... neither we nor the Japanese representatives are going to lose. Let's do everything we can for each other in the game the day after tomorrow!

"I'm just like Kota. I'll show the Italian representative the bottom line of Japan."

But me and Leopard didn't lose either.

Face Leonardo's hegemony directly from the front.

It doesn't matter if your opponent is six years older and an ace at Uvetos FC.

We also fight as bearers of the Samurai blue sun circle.

'Nice eye, both of you. I'll look forward to the day after tomorrow. "

Leaving it at that, Mr. Leonardo walks away.

"That was a brilliant proclamation, Mr. Courta."

"Thank you, Mr. Julian"

"But this time the Italian representative is doing quite well. Do you have a chance?

"Is this a winning opportunity..."

Objectively speaking, the Italian representative is overwhelmingly above it in terms of overall strength.

Besides Leonardo Ricci, the Italian representative also needs active Celier A players and future superstars.

To be clear, Japan at Asian level may only have a few percent chance of winning.

"But until the last second, I won't give up and chase the ball!

I don't know the football game until it's over.

That is borne out by the long history of football.

How powerful a team that doesn't give up until the end is a world with the greatest madness (Giant Killing).

"Well, Coata has accomplished such a great deal of madness many times... you know, perverted bastard (Leonardo), too!

"Thank you, Elena. But the pervert says a little too much..."

"Oh, does Coata prefer that guy to me? It's terrible..."

"Oh, no, Elena..."

Thanks to Elena, I was able to relax without the stiff strength of my shoulders.

We can break through the qualifying league, but Olympic football is going to be the real deal.

If you win the final tournament, you won't be able to reach the tri-color medal.

"Welcome! I'm going to volunteer too!

If I had imagined playing against Mr. Leonardo, my body would have nodded.

Eat the dish in front of you all at once, and I'll take a seat.

"You're as busy as ever, Coata. But today is the day after the game, so don't forget to take care of yourself."

"Yeah, okay, Elena. I'll keep it that much!

The Olympic football schedule is pretty hard.

Today, the day after the game, Japanese practice was off.

You can practice light autonomy, but it's forbidden to be intense.

"Well, you're going first, Mr. Hyoma!

"Oh. And don't get lost in the athlete village, Courta"

"Yeah, okay!

The Athletes' Village is home to a wide range of facilities.

Having been lost several times before, I decided to go home with great care.

After breakfast this day, gently self-practice.

After that, he focused on caring for his body.

Watch recorded footage of Olympic football in your room this afternoon with Hyoma.

I really wanted to watch a live game at the stadium, but my representative, Ole, has a tight schedule.

But I, a football geek, enjoyed just the footage I recorded.

I'm so excited about all sorts of athletes' supa plays.

After watching football, he practiced again lightly and voluntarily.

Now you and Hyoma, practicing against Italy.

We both simulated over and over again how to seal Leonardo Ricci.

Like that, time goes by in no time.

Time was at seven o'clock at night.

"No, it's been a full day."

I felt happy when I was hungry, eating all I could for dinner.

Dinner was also served with four of you, Hyoma, Elena and Yulian.

"Well, let's take a light after-dinner walk and go home."

I was walking alone in the athlete's village.

Hyoma, you have shopping to do, so I decided to go back to my room alone.

Take a relaxing walk on the path of the Athlete's Village, which became quiet at night.

"Coata......"

"Hmm?"

That is the time.

I was called out by a girl.

"Maya ⁉ Why are you here?

It was my classmate Maya who had spoken up.

Why is Maya in the Olympic athlete village?

"I need to talk to Coata about some bullshit. That's why I came."

Maya had a strange face.

I've never seen her look like this, not putting too much emotion on the table.

"Tell me something important...?

Thus his classmate Maya… talked to MaYA (Maya), the world's singing princess, alone in a quiet evening athlete village.
