"Let's play baseball!

When I opened the door, I was there... who?

No, I know who it is, and I know it.

I'm always with you.

But somehow, it's strange. This other guy can't do this, and he won't say this.

I'm sure you're tired.

There was a lot going on at the Magics Chevalier tournament.

I want to calm down for now, so I close the door gently.

"What's up, Ray? You're not going for a run?

"No... it could be a hallucination... maybe a magical attack... an illusion? No way Carol's reign" Hellshaft "......? Could it be that very cute (Carol) my (in) strange world (Wonderland) is activated? But such signs..."

"What? What are you talking about?

"No. It must be my fault"

And I opened the door again.

"Let's play baseball!

Yes. There he was, undoubtedly, Amelia.

But things are not right.

He wears his uniform as usual, but he says that with his baseball cap on and his thumb up all the way.

I guess I'm still tired.

Trying to close the door again with that in mind, Gah Amelia has stopped it.

"Hey! Wait a minute. Great!

"Hmm. I see. Is it real... apparently not Carol's fault"

"Genuine!

"So, what's up with that outfit?"

"Let's play baseball! Everybody!"

"No, wait. I want you to talk to me in an orderly manner."

"Neither is that!

So Amelia, whose tension is unusually high, starts telling the details of why she's inviting her to play baseball.

"Actually, Senior Rebecca asked me to."

"To seniors?

"Yeah. As a matter of fact, the baseball club is now pushing for more time to use the ground, and Senior Rebecca went to pay attention as student chairman."

"I see."

"So Senior Serra, who was accompanying Senior Rebecca, got angry because some baseball club had a more awesome and unwieldy attitude"

"Hmm."

"So, for some reason, they're talking about settling in baseball. But now that there are so many students returning home, Seniors Rebecca can hardly get people together... so I overheard the story, and I'm inviting them! Of course, Ray and Evie will be joining us! By the way, the game's tomorrow!

"... right, though. Evi, what do we do?"

"I don't mind! I've done it before!

"Huh... baseball? Fine. Me and Evie are in."

"Yay! Then next time, invite Elisa and Clarice!

So we were supposed to play baseball somehow. Of course, when I was a soldier, baseball or sports kind of went through it all, so there's no problem.

There was a time when my master had a crush on throwing change balls, so I was even playing catcher. Of course, I can also do pitchers because my master teaches me all sorts of ball species.

But first, attracting members would be a priority.

So far, it's me, Amelia, Evie, Senior Rebecca, and Senior Serra.

That seems to mean we need four more.

"All right, here's Clarice's room!

The three of us walked forward and came in front of Clarice's room. By the way, I don't have many students right now, so I can't blame them for coming to the girls' dorm that much.

Amelia usually comes to the men's dorm, too. By the way, I hear Senior Serra told me where the room is. Senior Sella must have remembered me once before because I was in my room on an errand at the horticulture department.

And when Amelia in the baseball cap is willing, knocking...... no response.

It's 7: 00 in the morning. It's possible he's still asleep.

That's what I think, there was a noise coming from the indoors... and the door slowly opened.

"Aye... it's Clarice-Cleveland... I'm awake... Aye"

It was Clarice who looked very sleepy coming out of it. Pajamas on the nightcap. He holds a stuffed animal in his arm. Words are a little suspicious, too, and I'm still sneaking around and fluttering my neck.

Now, unlike always, the twin tails are unraveled, with long, beautiful, lustrous hair stretching to near the waist.

I see, you look adorable down there too... the arrowhead you think, Amelia, goes into action.

"Let's play baseball!

"Aye... see you later..."

Though I smile and thumbs up like Amelia did to me, I get kicked in the ass by Clarice's bossy whining words that look like I'm falling asleep. And slowly closed the door.

"Hey! Hey, Clarice, it's me! It's Amelia!

Don't, don't, and when you tap, Clarice comes out again.

"Huh...? What! Amelia!?

"Yes! It's me!"

"Ray's got Evie, too. Come on! I'm gonna get dressed, so wait!

Bang, and the door closed with momentum and I heard a doorbell coming from the indoors... five minutes have passed.

From inside, ha, ha, and Clarice came out roughing her breath. The gorgeous twin tails, as always, look great. Consciousness seems to have awakened completely, and she begins to speak as usual.

"So, what can I do for you?

"Let's play baseball!

"Hey Ray and Evie. Is this Amelia? Not a different character?

Without worrying about Amelia, Clarice asks this way.

"He wants to play baseball with everyone. That's all."

"... it is. Nothing good, but come on...... So, me, inexperienced, okay?

"It's okay! Because I'll teach!

"Amelia is experienced?

"Wall-to-wall and bareback were amazing! So that one day I can be friends with you!

"Ah...... yeah"

"It's okay, Clarice. We're experienced."

"Oh well. I don't know..."

So she also joined the members and headed over to Elisa as she told Clarice the details of her history.

"Is that it? What's wrong with all of us?

"Let's play baseball!

"Oh, Amelia...?

And Elisa, who reacted exactly the same as everyone else, normally accepted.

So there are seven members now. It's just the two of us, but the arrow tip I'm thinking about doing, I flashed.

"The rest of you know me."

With that said, it was the gym on campus that we headed to. There were just two of you there.

"Albert. And the general manager. Good morning."

"Ray. Hey, what's up?

"Actually..."

And when I give the details, the department manager agrees.

"I see. Fine. Baseball has experience."

By the way, Albert has no memory of when he was kidnapped, and this is how he is now working out his body safely. Says he lost the semifinals because he didn't have enough muscle, and now he's been taught a lot by the general manager at this gym.

"It's baseball... that's good"

"Does Albert have experience?

"There are outdoors."

"I see, that's dependable"

Albert decides to go out in the field. By the way, the department manager means he has catcher experience, and this is also a decision.

And then he's in the student council room, rendezvous with Seniors Rebecca and Serra.

That's how all nine of us go to the baseball club!

"Ah, already! That baseball club, I'll definitely push you to scrap! I feel bad if I don't mess it up!

"Well, well, Mr. Deena. Please calm down."

"Can this calm you down! I made a fool of Master Rebecca! This is a felony!

We're all gathered in the ground. By the way, they all wear uniforms and have gloves too.

You're not supposed to expect this, but you're saying that the director of the department, who has uniforms and tools for everyone, is still just a member of this kingdom's intelligence organization...

But I won't listen to you talk about making fun of Senior Rebecca either.

"Senior Serra. What does that mean?"

"Ray, listen to me. Those guys in the baseball club, they told me that this one, unlike you, is getting results. I can't believe you're bringing up Magics Chevalier at the Magic Swordsman Competition... kill him!

"Is that in the sense of Senior Rebecca, who finished the semi-finals in the Magics Chevalier tournament?"

"Yes! Because the baseball club's been doing well lately... kill it!

"I see... that's unforgivable"

"So, guys. What about position and order? By the way, the most important thing is the pitcher, but who does?

"Pitcher, but I'll do it"

"Ray?

"Yes, I hear the catcher has had some experience with the department manager"

"Hmm. Let's just take a look at Ray's ball. Good thing you're really gonna smash that baseball club, huh? You expect a lot of that, don't you?

"Of course it is. I will always get paid for the sin of ridiculing Senior Rebecca."

Senior Serra, and I'll tell Senior Rebecca that, but the person of the day, Senior Rebecca, was staring at me in uniform.

"What's wrong?

"Mr. Ray...... again, that's a good muscle"

"Do you understand?

"Yep. If you're a man here, it's helpful because you have very good muscles. Hmm......"

"Speaking of which, have you done that before... was it indeed the first day of the tournament? Maybe seniors are interested in training too?

"Ah! No, the... haha... nothing. Shh! That's right! Clear my thoughts thoroughly, Mr. Ray!

"My pleasure..."

That's how I get to the mount.

And then everyone holds back behind the net, and the department manager, a catcher with protective gear, comes.

Probably a confirmation of the sphere species.

"Ray. What's the ball species?

"You can also go straight, curve, slider, chute, two-seam, cutball, sinker, change-up, fork, split, palm, knuckle, knuckle curve, and vertical slider"

……

"What's wrong?

"No, can you really go all the way?

"Yes, because my master knocked me in. Mage, I told you to keep these balls."

"I see... sounds like Mr. Lydia. Here's your signature, then."

and share the impromptu decided signatures with each other, the department manager sets up a big catcher mitt behind the base.

Because of the general manager's musculoskeletal body, I was feeling the ease of throwing again.

And then I swing... the manager's set up, throwing straight in the middle.

'... Huh?

It fits inside the director's mitt, my full ball. That's paaaaaaah! and sounded, shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

─ I see, that's the manager.

It completely kills the ball's momentum and captures it perfectly. Plus its huge body makes it pretty easy to throw. I can really count on this.

"Hey!? Hey, time!

"Huh? Something wrong?

When Senior Sella says so, she runs by me. And then she comes at me with a shout.

"Ray! How many kilometers is it now?!?

"Come on...... I think it's over 150 km. If you warm your shoulders a little more, I think you can go 160."

"You didn't use the internal Inside code, did you?

"Yes. Certainly no magical physical enhancement, right?

"Yeah, I do. Heh heh... I can do this! In the meantime, throw all the change balls you have!

Copy that, sir.

Then I threw in all the ball species I had.

The general manager caught all that well for me. Some of the controls went crazy and shortbound along the way, but the department manager dropped the ball firmly in front of me with that body.

Especially since forks and splits are falling change balls, there are a lot of pass balls (to be distracted behind them), but this looks okay.

"All right! All right! Ray, it's perfect! You're the best!

"Thank you. Senior Serra."

When I bow my head to the dust, the usual members come around. Among other things, Clarice comes forward and shouts out loud.

"Ray! Hey!

"What's up, Clarice?"

"Are you a pro!? So much so that my amateur can tell, it sucked!

"Well... because you're being planted by your master"

"Seriously, it's out of standard..."

So we then encouraged practice.

I can never forgive the baseball club for saying I disparaged that Senior Rebecca, either. I'm sorry, but let me be serious.

This is how we challenge ourselves to tomorrow's game.

Senior Rebecca's thoughtlessness must be clear.
