As promised to you, Tanaka, I was supposed to participate in a practice match, wearing the uniform I had been given in advance, and coming to the venue.
Naturally, the other baseball players are kid heads like you, Tanaka, and I'm the only one with very floating hair.
I touched my hair unexpectedly and asked Tanaka, who bothered to pick me up.
"Ko, this... boy. Should I have had it in my head?
"No, no! This is the one I'm asking for, and I'm not letting you get that far!
"Oh, yeah? But I'm not the only one floating around?
"Well... but my hair isn't the only cause..."
What a subtle look on your face, Tanaka, as you leaned your neck, I was curious about the other school in today's practice match.
"Speaking of which, this is how they asked me for help, what's the other school like?
"What we're fighting today is" Ming Chuo High School "at Koshien Regular School. Besides, they have a hell of a monster in the same year as us this year, and they're already one of the selected members."
"Heh..."
I'm not familiar with baseball. Even I know just how important Koshien is, and I thought it would be outrageous to be in such a high school that I could always go to Koshien, the same freshman but in that selection member.
When I went to our high school bench with that conversation, my supervisor greeted me with a smile and I stayed scared the whole time.
Instead, when I glanced at the face of the amateur I thought other baseball players thought I was in a valuable game venue, not one person seemed extremely grumpy, and I felt that gaze a lot about identifying me one way or another.
"Sorry, Yu Night. The guys in the same class know how awesome you are, so it's okay, but the ones I've never seen are a little..."
"No, that's perfectly fine... I'd rather be around stronger..."
"Hey, we guessed cancer, and the director agreed with me, so it looks like he won more interest than rejection, huh? Besides, if it's a night out, you can blow this gaze, right?
"That's a lot of pressure!?"
I have trouble being lifted up with my kid so much!?
So, I'll do what I can.
Then a voice was heard from the audience seats on the bench.
"Hey, Yu Night!
"Ah, Shingo Ryo! Ever...... eh!?"
"Yay!
"Something funny. I came to see it."
Oh, my God, I thought Ryo and Shingo were the only ones who would come to see me this time, but the maple and Rin appearance was there too.
"Hey, Yu Night, you look great in uniform too!
"Well, wouldn't he look good in anything?
"Ugh, yeah. As much as I did a model shoot with Miba before..."
"No, you did. Modeling, baseball... you're kind of busy."
He looks at me and talks about it in some fun way... but I wasn't expecting you to come see this much, so I was surprised.
... This is how everyone is watching me, and I have to work hard.
By the way, the place I'm protecting this time is the lights, number nine, and the order of hitting is the last.
I never had a chance to participate in a sports game outside of class, not just baseball, and when I waited softly, I aligned myself with the fact that the game would finally start.
Then, among the opponents, there was this… aura that would make them feel confident if they did it, plus the player was likely to be over 190 cm tall. He's a big player.
Even after the alignment and greeting, Tanaka will teach you to follow the athlete with his eyes.
"That Deceitful is the same monster of the year as us, Takashi Hayakawa."
"That guy..."
The other members said they were third and second graders, but I was impressed with Yasukawa, who was moving without being pressured by such seniors, but I decided to do my job properly.
- Akira Hayakawa was unhappy.
Today's game was also made possible by the fact that the directors were close to each other, but other students as well as Speed River thought that they should practice games with the upper high school more forcefully.
Of course, it doesn't mean 'Wangxing School' is weak.
Neither Wang Xing School nor Koshien Regular School is a powerful school with several experiences in Koshien.
However, for Ming Chuo School this year, a monster named Takashi Hayakawa had entered the department, and his strength jumped dramatically, and he had all the faces he called his best members since Ming Chuo School began.
And Wang Xing School didn't even hear about people entering the club that would be a special topic, and it's even been said that Koshien probably won't be able to do it this year.
Rather than fighting such opponents, Hayagawa wanted to fight stronger people and make it his own.
But... they called for help in this game to see what they were thinking.
Besides, that helper doesn't look like he's playing baseball no matter what he thinks.
... No, I feel like I've seen it on TV before in magazines, but I guess it's my fault.
A helper makes sense because I call him to win that game, and I couldn't understand why he called an amateur on a night out where he didn't look like he was playing baseball no matter how he looked.
If you were a strong person, you'd have a lot of information in there, but not even that would mean you'd never even been in the baseball club in middle school.
We were angry at the fact that we, Koshien Regular High School, could be made to deal with such an amateur, and the Hayakawa men decided to beat the other school thoroughly in this game.
And then the game began, and a single table started with the vanguard of Wang Xing School, but here the speed river, called the monster, showed strength as its name suggests.
Speed River was chosen as a first-year but selected pitcher, and the first Wangxing School changed its offense with the result of three consecutive strikes without ever letting the ball touch the bat.
After that, the game goes pale.
Moreover, during the attack on Ming Chung School, all scores were scored and Wang Xing School did not score a single point.
I was wondering if it would be a complete game as it is...... next time, everything changed with a night of concert standing on the hitting table.
"(Finally... amateur is not in good shape...!)"
Speed River throws a real straight to show off the difference in strength.
Its sphere speed is amazing at 163 km, not as fast as an amateur can hit.
But...
"Huh......!
――――
Yu Night captured exactly the core of the ball and flew straight to the stand.
Yu Night stares at the state of it and mutters quietly.
"Oh, good... I flew too far in class... but thanks to 'demonic power' I'm able to add and subtract well..."
"Kiuuuuuuuuuuu! Saw it!? It was a home run, Yuuki!
"I knew it was awesome, he"
"That other school pitcher's ball, it doesn't look very fast enough to hit,"
In the guest seat, the Maples were thriving heavily when Yu Night hit a home run.
When Speed River stares at such a night, he twists his neck at how relieved he is by what.
However, more than that, Hayagawa changed his perception of the night with a ball of his own full body becoming a home run.
"(It's not a trick... He caught my ball with his eyes...!)"
Would you be able to do that to a baseball amateur?
It was Hayagawa who revamped his perception of Unight, but that next player completely suppressed and the offense would take turns again.
Then, for the first time since coming to this game, the ball hit by a Ming Chung School player flew to the light side.
The sphere grows more and more flight distances and is not very fast enough to catch up.
Yes everyone thought...
"Ha!"
Yu Night running at an unusual rate caught up with the ball lightly and caught the ball as it was.
To that appearance, the facades of Ming Chuan School outside of Speed River finally noticed the anomaly of Yu Night.
On the contrary, even the other players at Wang Xing School, who were somewhere skeptical before the game began, had their eyes round Yu Night's behavior.
But Tanaka, who invited him, and the director, nod satisfactorily all the time saying, 'Yes, this is it'.
I didn't think the beings we were insulting had the ability to be so monstrous, Hayagawa, but the emotions in that mind were... joyful.
"(Wow... wow. He's an athlete I don't know and I can't believe he exists like this...!)"
I guess the fact that we haven't had any information before is the secret of Wang Xing School.
When this happens, we may also be able to aim for Koshien appearances this year.
Of course, it wouldn't be that easy, and it would be difficult without stretching the strengths of the other players, but the presence of Yu Night was very great.
"(to him... how far do I go!?)"
With such curiosity, Hayagawa finally came to his last battle with Yu Night.
And in that battle, Hayagawa started in this game and cut one of his own handbills.
That's......
"Huh!?"
The ball fell right in front of her the moment she tried to hit it just like she did earlier.
For non-Unight humans, it was always straightforward, and when we assumed that Unight would come straight on its own, Hayagawa chose to fork ball.
Its completeness was so high that it was illusory that it was straightforward until just before it fell.
Of course, it was impossible to throw at the highest ball speed in the Speed River, but still quite a ball speed for a fork ball, which was very difficult to discern.
Yu Night, who saw something called a change sphere for the first time, gradually found the change interesting, even when his eyes opened and solidified.
"Shh, Shh! In front of you, Ston! It fell!
Said it was empty, but on a night of innocently laughing, everyone on the spot as well as Speed River was taken aback, but Speed River grinned in the same way.
And when Speed River throws the ball again, Yu Night stares at that ball more vigilantly than at first.
But now it was straightforward, and Yu Night was struck without shaking.
"Ooh..."
And the third ball.
If Unight were empty here, it would be a victory for Speed River, but Unight had unconsciously put into full operation the observation cultivated in the other world.
When dealing with demons from different worlds, you can do it if you don't identify each and every move of it.
Besides, even in the kicking training I learned from rabbits, I trained my eyes from day to day, such as observing the rabbit's movements closely.
That's why Unight identified the rotation of that Speed River sphere, figured it was a fork ball, and dropped it off.
"(You've managed to understand the rotation of the sphere… then…)"
Finally, a settlement was reached for the battle between Unight and Speed River.
Oh, my God, Unight predicted the next ball species because of the motion of the body of the fast river and the pulsation of the muscles at that time before the fast river threw the ball.
And...
"Huh!"
Unight also hit a home run.
Watching Yu Night running through the base, Hayagawa laughs quietly.
"(That's a complete defeat... I didn't know you'd been spotted before you threw it...)"
Speed River had reached such an area that by eliminating the difference in how to throw a fork ball and straight to the extreme, etc., it made him think from the batter that he didn't know what was coming until just before.
Not only that, but also by not sacrificing sphere speed in a fork ball, it continued to aim for higher heights, such as making its discernment even more difficult.
Speed River is even more determined when he is hit with his own sphere at night, which can also be described as its own symbol.
"(more... more weapons, I guess. Besides, I need to invest in batting...)"
In such determination, the game itself ended in a victory for Myeong Chuo School, and after greeting him from the last alignment, Hayagawa spoke to Yu at night.
"Hey."
"Yes? Ah! Uh... Hayagawa, right?
"That's right. You..."
"Oh, I'm Yu Night"
"Night. Today's game, I learned so much. I want to face off in this game, not in a practice match."
"Uh, well... I'm not a baseball player..."
"Yes!?"
I did hear he was a helper, but Hayagawa was surprised he didn't really think he was a baseball player.
"That's all I have talent for..."
"This is... talent, I can't even tell you how torn my mouth is."
"? I don't know, maybe I should take this opportunity to start baseball"
"I'm sorry, but I want to try everything else."
"Right..."
Yu Night gives me a bitter laugh against Hayakawa, who gives me an unfortunate look.
"So I know it's hard to fight again, but I'm here for you, Hayakawa. Good luck."
"! Oh, thanks!
Thus, the encounter between Hayagawa and Yu Night ended.
- By the way, Speed River polished even more to the monster from meeting Yu Night, winning first place in the draft conference, making it to the major after being the most nominated and great player in the contracted club.
He has also demonstrated his monstrosity abroad and has become Japan's most famous baseball player.
In addition, in an interview later in the year, he said he had never seen a hell of a player like Yu Night later or earlier, and it was going to keep the public busy.
