August 20th.

It will be the day after the German war.

The day after the game, Japanese delegates are also off practice.

I slept well and had refreshment time in the morning.

I was practicing lightly and voluntarily with you in leopard this afternoon and in good physical condition.

The next game is the night of the 22nd the day after tomorrow.

We need to get rid of the German war fatigue by then, and get back on track.

It will be that evening, and I will have dinner with you, Hyoma.

There are many restaurants in the athlete's village.

But tonight I felt like I wanted to make it a store I'd never been to before.

For that reason, I decided to go out of the athlete's village today.

Olympians can even go out of the athletic village as long as they apply.

As long as we keep the curfew set by each country, we'll be out for dinner.

But I don't want to go too far.

That's why I decided to make it a shopping mall next to Athletes Village.

"Ah, this store looks delicious! Shall we make it here, Mr. Leopard?

I don't care where you are.

Hyoma, you're basically not into food.

They say it's nutritious and if it tastes good, it's fine anywhere.

That's why I always chose the store.

"I'm sorry, two of you, are you okay? What... was that, renting out?

When I walked inside the restaurant, there was sticky paper.

"Open for rent tonight," he said.

Now that the Olympics are underway, every store is crowded.

So there are occasional cases like this.

"Rent it out, Mr. Hyoma. Let's go to the next store…"

That's when I almost said it.

"Hmm? Coata?

'Hey, guys, there's Coata!

Someone at the party calls me by my name.

Maybe there are people who know about me?

What country are they from?

Or should I think of his words... German.

I know a bunch of people who speak German…

"Hi, Mr. Coata. Why don't you join me?

"Mr. Lillian ⁉ and everyone in Germany ⁉"

What a rent-out banquet it was for a member of the German football representative.

That's how me and Leopard were forced to join the party.

The restaurant was a German restaurant.

Buffet style for a standing meal tonight.

Cuisine from all parts of Germany was alongside the dishes.

"Yeah, yummy! I knew German food was delicious!

I'm thrilled with the German food I haven't had in a long time.

This restaurant says it has a German chef.

That's why you can taste the same dishes as the real ones.

I'm going to cook with you, Leopard.

'Ha ha ha... you've come a lot, Coata!

"Are you having fun?

Everyone in Germany was already drunk in a good way.

He's tangled up in me with a big German beer jock in his hand.

'Yes, it's delicious. But, folks, are you okay with drinking so much?

Olympians often refrain from drinking during games.

I have data that it's better to encourage abstinence than to have a good outcome in a match.

"Ha-ha-ha... we lost yesterday's semifinals!

"With that pain, it's the first booze I've had in days!

'Whatever, German beer has a bad flow to cut! Ha ha!

I've never heard of such a tragedy, even when I was in Germany.

But I think I need a little alcohol to change my mood.

In any case, the Germans consume more than 100 liters of beer per capita per year.

Ranked among the top three in the world.

These are some of the world's leading drinkers.

By the way, the Olympic Association prohibits drinking in athlete villages.

But if you step outside, the rest will be judged by each country.

Athletes can drink in this mall.

"Speaking of which, Coata must have turned seventeen, too, right?

'Then join us and toast to German beer!

"I'm 17 years old, but this is Japan..."

Drinking alcohol such as beer and wine is permitted in Germany from the age of 16 and distilled liquor from the age of 18.

But this is a restaurant in Osaka's shopping mall.

If I'm a Japanese minor and I'm an Olympian and I drink alcohol, I'm in trouble.

"What? ⁉ If you're not over twenty in Japan, you can't have a beer. ⁉"

"So what are you drinking and living ⁉ '

"Oh my God, Japan is such a lonely country!

'Play in Germany again and have a drink with us!

Everyone in Germany was thrilled to make such a story into a liquor dish.

Usually disciplined, serious Germans.

But this is how they shudder in the field.

When you're drinking beer and watching a football game... serious Germans make a fuss too.

'Speaking of which, I'm sorry I mixed things up. To the party of the German representations because of it......'

I'm suddenly feeling sorry for myself.

Yesterday at the game, we Japanese dropped the German two to one.

The press across Europe said, 'The Great Failure of German Representation!' And they're making a scene.

One way or another, the number one king in the world has lost to Japan, which ranks dozens.

'Mm, what is it, Coata? You care about that?

'If you were in the opposite position, what would you think?

'What, are you in the opposite position... I think it doesn't matter because yesterday's game was really fun and the funniest...'

'Right! Same goes for us!

"In yesterday's war in Japan, I gave it all away!

"No regrets! That's why we're making so much noise!

The Germans answered with a smile.

They love football just like me.

After a squarely grand battle, I don't drag.

They're really nice people.

"Besides, we're in the third place game the day after tomorrow, and we're sure to win and bring the bronze medal back to Germany!

"So the Coaters and the Japanese will win instead of us!

Germany, which lost in the semifinals, advanced to the third-place final.

If you win there, you can manage to get the medal.

They were making a fuss about beer, but they were switching their minds to the next game.

"But I didn't know the third place match was going to be that Brazil..."

"Oh, this is just a turbulent tournament......"

Everyone's story moves on to another game yesterday.

Yesterday we had another semifinals in a different venue from the Japanese German match.

So Brazil, the winning candidate, had a big wave to lose to Spain.

(I can't believe Brazil can be torn...)

Listening to that, I make my heart sound faster.

Because history was actually changing.

This is a fact that only I know.

In previous life, the final game of football for the Osaka Olympics was Germany vs. Brazil.

In the end, Brazil was supposed to win and win the gold medal.

But history changed, and Brazil, which was supposed to win, was defeated.

(I guess the factor Brazil lost in the semifinals is still your presence Serbio...)

In previous life history, Serbio Garcia was not represented in Spain at the Osaka Olympics.

But this time he's represented.

(Besides, yesterday in the Brazilian War...)

Serbio, you were deciding on a hat-trick against the world champion, Brazil.

With four to three thanks to it, Spain wins.

In the previous life, Spain had lost one-on-three to Brazil.

I mean, Garcia, your presence alone has changed the history of Spain.

(I don't know how, Serbio, your history has changed so much... but the day after tomorrow the final is going to be an unprecedented death fight...)

Spain, albeit the Olympic generation, is bringing down Brazil, the king of South America.

We Japanese representatives will have to prepare and try the finals.

'All right, let's go to Sawamura's next!

'Oh yeah!

Soon all the Germans will leave me.

I would have made you the target of the next pinch of liquor.

It will be just me and Mr. Julian.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Coata. Have you heard from Elena?

"I haven't heard from you yet. Are you all right, Elena..."

Talk to Mr. Julian in a whisper about Elena.

She is going to Germany to take the special effects of Ceyllane's disease.

I would have planned to be back already.

But so far, Elena hasn't come back to the athlete village yet.

I haven't been able to get in touch with her a few times a day yet.

(Maybe something happened to Elena...)

She calls herself out and does a tough job on this one.

First a trainer of special effects who is in Germany.

Ask them to confirm all five candidates.

Then explain the situation to the person.

Take the special effects and ask them to return to Japan.

Even though she named me after herself, so did I, originally, involve Elena.

I can only thank you for this.

(Elena, are you okay? Was there trouble in Germany? Or is there a problem with the plane?

The candidate laboratories in Germany were fragmented.

Some places are quite remote, and it's hard to just travel.

Plus the Olympic Games are now underway.

I can't imagine any trouble.

"Anyway, trust Elena, now we'll wait to hear from you, Mr. Courta"

"Yes, Mr. Lillian..."

Mr. Julian is right.

We can't leave the game yet.

We just have to wait and believe her.

"Hmm?"

That is the time.

My phone in my pocket shivers.

I don't have a cell phone, but it was brought only during the Olympics.

(Maybe from Elena ⁉)

Only those involved are giving this number.

Hurry up and answer the phone without even looking at the number.

"Yes hello!

"Mr. Coata. It's me."

But it was a man who called.

"Ah... the school director? What's the matter, sir?

It was the school director who called me.

I was teaching for urgent business.

"I apologize for holding off on the finals and being busy. But Maya's condition..."

"What, Maya says ⁉ Yes, we're on our way now!

The school director over the phone was more upset than ever.

That was all I felt was an emergency.

"Thank you, Yulian, ladies and gentlemen! Now that we have an emergency, we're going back!

Mayan hospitals are about twenty minutes away from here.

This is how I ran to Mayan's hospital room, where my condition changed.
