God of Tennis

Leonard's second encounter with the slug, which still remains a nightmare in the corner of the brain, was simple. The heavy weight transmitted through the opposing racket and the pressure on the finger give the opposing Pokémon a hunch as to the strength of the horses' stamina.

"Heavy!"

The nightmares of the past come back to life from the senses of your fingertips. The pain on my wrists, the lightening of my racket, and the emptiness in my empty hands. After two years, I couldn't forget it.

However, it was not just Han Woo-jin who was different from then.

Leonard's thick right hand, holding the handle of the racket, rests another hand underneath. It was his way of preparing for the fire, just in case. Obviously, there was no chance of the racket getting out of hand like before. Be there in a minute.

A faint smile spreads from Leonard's mouth.

‘No matter how hard you try, you can't push a racket you catch with a two-hand. ’

You were right. Specialty skills are great, but they don't transcend the laws of physics at all. It was never possible to break a person's bones, pierce a string, or do anything like the exaggerated techniques in the cartoon.

Bounce off a racket holding it tight with both hands? If I wanted to try it, I would have to use a ball of iron instead of a soft tennis ball to argue with a potential contender.

“Suck!”

However, a young breath came out from between Leonard's lips. He was successful in obtaining the ball, but the strength of the slug was rarely diminished.

A special technique with a designation as well. It does not change as much as it exerts a force beyond common sense. The string and frame of the racket and the ball that hit the boundary were pushed against Leonard's racket, ignorantly advancing. Move the ball out of the suite spot.

The penalties have returned to excessive weight.

‘I expected the trajectory in its own way · ·! ’

Surprisingly, Leonard was able to almost perfectly understand the principles of the slug. I couldn't understand how to use it, but I could see the rationality of the weight. His talents were nothing short of difficult.

Disruption of the dot. The ball's orbit is slightly twisted just before it hits the racket. A slight deviation from the sweet spot would have taken advantage of the increasing burden of returning to the player's wrist.

So I adjusted the angle of the racket I was getting, but the ball was much more intense than I expected. It was unknown to Leonard, but it was because Han Woojin was stronger than two years ago.

Soon, the battle between the ball and the racket reached a threshold.

· · · Ang!

It was only a moment, and then it was over. The amount of time that increased due to concentration has been restored to its original pace.

Where's the ball? ’

Leonard turns his rigid gaze to chase the bounced ball's position. At the last moment, he felt a slight push in the racket. I did not like the feeling. I barely handed over the net, but it was not a situation I could even consider.

Later, everyone's eyes, from the referee, the audience, and Han Woo-jin, were busy moving after the moment of the upheaval. Their gaze was not that difficult to catch up with the ball. Looks like you used all your strength to push Leonard's racket away, bounced ball hollow.

The job was not so fast.

The ball crashed to a point far away from the coat.

“ “ “ · · · · · ·. ” ” ”

A brief silence envelops the intestine. Leonard lets out a sigh of relief. Other than that, the first person to overcome a situation where no one could make a sound was an unforgettable judge who ended his work. Him.

stood up and declared the end of two sets.

“Han Test Game! Set won by Ujin Han, 64! ”

One set followed by two sets was also the moment that Hanwoojin fell into his hands.

One, two sets followed by three sets of membranes quickly lowered. Leonard's successive loss of motivation was one reason, but there was a fundamental cause. When Leonard's pure Han Woojin's ability had surpassed him greatly,

It was a door. One set of superiority represented the difference in power between the two.

After finishing the set with a score of 63, Han Woo-jin looked across the room curiously. It was because I felt curious before joy about the game that ended too vain than I thought. That's just a little bit better than he was two years ago.

Yes, it was a good level, considering it had hardly grown.

Was the season off that fatal? ’

It didn't sound unfounded at all. The term off, break, was often more real than beneficial to a player's skill. For your information, rest here is a harsh exercise or friendly game.

This is assumed to be the following story.

The season off for tennis players is generally short. Instead of taking a long break, it's more basic to split it several times. It was a break for professional tennis players that was rare on a short weekly basis, no matter how long it was, more than two months.

And Hanwoojin, who recalled Leonard Sweets' profile, had no choice but to shake his head.

‘Well, it's hard to say you've been resting since about June last year. ’

Leonard said the return of the season was around the beginning of April. Then he spent almost a year away from tennis. Even a year away from systematic training, friendly games instead of real games, the players are capable.

It was a period of time that could be severely degraded and still remain extra. Rather, it was even more amazing to spend that time and go to Grand Slam Headquarters.

“· · · It's a lot different from the old days. How you feelin '? ”

“Well, that's not bad. ”

Leonard speaks with a stiff tone. When Han Woo-jin realized that his voice was not expressing anything particularly offensive, he replied without hesitation. It was easier to win than I thought, but losing the other day

The feeling of accomplishment of swearing was never a bad feeling.

When Leonard heard Han Woo-jin's answer, he frowned for a moment, but not long after that, he turned his face back. The bowl was not small enough to lose peace over one defeat. Rather, white teeth on a rough face.

I showed my face.

“He is definitely a different person from then. To be honest with you, my friend, it looks a lot better now than it used to. ”

“ I think so too. ”

I wasn't talking about your skills. He openly accepted Leonard's words. At the Mets Open, Han Woo-jin was still lacking in his consciousness and ability as a world ranker. Compared to what we're seeing today,

There was a difference.

The story of the two could not have lasted that long. Earlier, to start the match, now was the time to leave for the next race. I plan to reserve a seat for Hanwoojin or Leonard or for those who have already won or lost.

There is no. The first thing you leave behind is a loser, Leonard.

“23rd place, no. Is it 19th now?"

“Perhaps. ”

It was about ranking Han Woo-jin, plus the points he scored at the Halle Open. He doesn't have much to hide, so he doesn't hesitate and confirms Leonard's words. And a black man with an eye for attitude, a fist the size of a child's head.

I grabbed it out.

“I'll be right with you. Go ahead and wait. ”

Everywhere I look, I see an attitude that doesn't look like a loser, which is why it was even more Leonard. Hanwoojin punched him in the face with his bird-like gaze. A winner can never show his back on the challenge of a loser.

“Let's not just cry about leaving. ”

That was how the two rounds ended.

* * *

Hanwoojin returned to the waiting room and looked at the message that came to his mind, and he was amazed at something damp that touched his cheek. There, I turned my head and looked at Shin Se-yeon with a big smile.

“Thank you so much. ”

“Oh · · Thank you. ”

Hanwoojin shook his head and received a towel from her. Maybe it's because it's the first victory on a big stage called Grand Slam. She was more vigorous than usual. A marble-white face with a reddish color.

My fingers felt trembling as well.

But there was no time to get a closer look at her. It's because Kim Sang-pil came near a bird and laughed. He was dropping a chunky jaw, whether he was excited about winning the first round of Han Woojin.

“Hey, this is the best I've ever done! Hanwoojin to the Rolangos 2 Rounds! I'm going to give the editor a little bit of a garden tax. ”

It was a playful tone, but the chief was not mixed at all. South Korean competitor Rolandros' run-in was not a lightweight story. If there's a place to talk about when you go to Grand Slam, if you win there.

Nothing to say. It was really a news story worth gardening.

The three of them left immediately, considering the fatigue of the three sets of Hanwoojin, to avoid getting attention from exotic journalists and other journalists for no reason.

And the three who walked out of the stadium walked past those who were arguing near the entrance.

“What's going on with him? ”

I could not understand Han Woojin and Shin Se-yeon because they were speaking in Spanish. However, Sang-pil Kim was different. When he saw the end of the day, he smiled maliciously and gave a vague answer.

“Well, it looks like your friend gave you some inaccurate information, and then he lost it. It wasn't a big deal. ”

“I see.”

They just nodded. If it's a foreign language I don't know, I should trust the interpreter. Can it be any worse? It was not even that interesting anyway. That's how the two nagging reporters lived among the three.

Lost.

At that moment, Han Woojin's knees fluttered and shook.

“Ah!”

“Woojin, are you okay? ”

Fortunately, Shin Se-yeon was next to me, so I could have fallen apart if I was alone. The sound of Shin Se-yeon's good voice, who thought he might have gained something, woke me up.

Han Woo-jin, who was leaning on her for a moment, quickly regained his balance. It seemed to have been a temporary phenomenon. He quickly realized the cause of the crooked phenomenon. The HP in the status window was significantly reduced

It was.

‘Did you use more power than you thought · · Grandslam is also not easy. ’

Whether it's the psychological burden or the rally with Leonard Sweets. It was clearly too much stamina for a typical ATP league round one. I never thought I'd experience a knee drop after my first game.

“It's okay now. He must have blinked for a second. ”

“Really?"

The two eyes that were opened in a circle seemed pathetic. It was a white lie, but I even felt like my conscience was aching. But our Hanwoojin was not such an absurd man to show such a trivial guilt on his face. Smile, Dory.

I even noticed her worries.

“Yes, can you tell me more about the outcome of the game? First of all, about Pedro or Radar. ”

“· · · Hold on. ”

They had been to Hanwoojin's games, but there were many other means of seeing the results besides the naked eye. Shin Se-yeon was one of those skilled in such means.

On the other hand, she started touching her phone and found out everything she wanted before 5 minutes had passed. Shin Se-yeon, who put her phone in the back pocket, looked back at Han Woo-jin with a slightly bored face.

“Both athletes went through a three-to-zero lap. Both times were a little over two hours. ”

“Indeed.”

It's not even hot, but a piece of cold sweat flowed down my spine. Hanwoojin also won a three-to-zero score, but the game lasted about three hours. Pedro and Radar, they decided to battle faster than an hour ago.

“· · · Yeah, one hour. ”

One hour. That was the proof of a skilled car that existed between Roger Pedro, Napa El Radal, and Hanwoojin.

End of Rolangos # 3
