Episode 664: The Game Begins

"... the game has begun."

Lil, who finally did the act of kissing Sho's cheek to everyone's eyes, was staring at our high school and its opposing school game booth to eat in.

By the way, I've done enough at school to hold you lightly.

When I shook up, I went to the game with a surprised look on my face, but are you okay? Well, you'll be fine.

By the way, part of the crew... no, most of them looked at Sho with envy. I don't have a choice.

The five selected went to the left of the venue, where they waited. Eventually the opposing school came and stood in the same line, and, for one thing, thanked him.

When I think it's about to start, the area around my chest is ravenous. I guess it's because I want Sho to win. Or maybe I simply enjoy this as much as watching some kind of game.

"It's the same as the prefectural tournament, and the vanguard is Hoshino."

"Wow, I knew he'd be the most active guy there at this stage," Golissen and Shaw said.

"Heh."

Looks like they're from a high school in Kinki Prefecture.

Hoshino, you and your opponent's vanguard... a sophomore with thick eyebrows stood on the mound. The game format is a winner. Sometimes it's a point system, but at least it seems to be a win out and unified this year.

I can't afford to be wiped out by one enemy.

Time appeared on the electro-optical bulletin board.

And it comes all the way to judgment. The two males meet, and stand up with grandeur and posture.

... the referee signaled the start of the game along with a buzzer sound that was light but made me remember something in my mind.

"Oh! Oh! No. Yes!

One of our Judo agents yelled yes, to the point that it would not be annoying.

It would be a very fortunate thing to win here. It should also improve the vitality and morale of future games.

Hoshino combines you with a sophomore eyebrow.

I'm desperate to roll my opponent over with a well-respected voice. There's supposed to be a one-year difference, Hoshino. You look more advantageous.

I can't say anything because I don't have any experience in judo, but at least that's what it looks like.

And an indication.

"Valid!"

"Whoa!"

Hoshino was able to take effect.

Um, 'valid' is something that is appreciated over time, and more wins. But if you take "moves" twice or take "one" completely, is that the end of the game?

Whatever it is, I think it's huge that we got ahead of ourselves.

"Wahoohoo, at this rate...!

But that hasn't happened since.

"Valid!"

"Ahhh...!

They take effect once after that 20 seconds...

"Valid!"

They take it again after a few more decades of it.

And.

"There's moves!

Finally, one move was taken by the enemy.

As it stands, the opponent has 1 move in 2 for 1 active.

"Hmm, is it the difference between first and second graders after all?

"It doesn't matter. In the first place, Hoshino has been judo since elementary school, winning competitions and so on."

"It is. But you're at a disadvantage now, aren't you?

Is it still a disadvantage in the circumstances, and my fellow enemy schools are grinning like a relief?

"Well, sure, but... Golissen's way of mentoring me isn't disadvantageous at all. Instead, this is the real deal."

Well, I don't think you're going to lose here because Hoshino seems to be the fierce one who pulled out two of the group's next and middle ranks and went all over the country in a personal battle with Sho and his deputy director.

"... Yikes!

Hoshino looked like you laughed... no, I laughed.

I also heard voices like I was in the mood.

And the game resumes.

Hoshino moved a few steps faster than you did earlier.

And the next moment, put on a sleeping move.

It took.

Sleeping moves are certain… if you can take 20 seconds, will you get one? With 15 seconds, it's a move.

Early in the beginning, the opponent tries to escape, but you are immovable as a rock, Hoshino. I'm holding it down.

"... 15 seconds... 16... 17... 18... 19... 20, wow, that's one."

The referee also has his hands up. That seems to be one signal.

... Oh my goodness, I suddenly knocked him out after he looked like he was in real mode.

"I won!

"Wow, that kid seems to be planning on being an ace and manager after the show's gone! Golissen said you shouldn't lose here!

"That's right."

Win Game 1 of Game 1.

A sure step. I'm holding a sweat in my hand by accident. I never thought I'd be so hot!

It was light for the prefectural tournament.

That's the whole country.

"At this rate, we can take down the next sharp, too, right?

"If Lil says so, I'm sure she will."

That Lil's predictions are medium.

Most of them have moves. Take two, Hoshino. You won the opponent's next stroke without difficulty.

But after that, they even took it to the effective judgment in a sticky way, and I lost by a single point.

But you're pretty good at it!

I just saw it from here, and I know the enemy's in quite a hurry. Well, I hope you keep winning!
