Aftermath

*Huff* *Huff*

Nash and Jason slumped to the ground as they received their first loss in a tryouts game. Akihiko stood over the two as he looked down at them.

"How, how are you so good?" Nash asked Akihiko as he stared at him, Nash's previous arrogance was no longer there. What replaced it was respect for Akihiko's abilities.

Akihiko's right eye returned to normal as his demeanor finally changed as well.

Akihiko then replied in a straightforward tone

"Practice."

He then walked away as the crowd was amazed by the game that they had witness. They felt like they were watching a final's game for a basketball tournament rather than a tryouts game. But there's one thing that they had concluded; that their school now had an additional monster in the form of Akihiko.

While Akihiko walked away from the court, he was immediately tackled by his teammates as they celebrated. For them, this felt more than a regular tryouts game.

"I'm not even joking, you may be just the best middle school player I've ever seen" William said as he stared in disbelief towards his friend.

Akihiko just gave him a smile while his team just barraged him with questions on how to get better at the game. Alexandra stared at the celebrating team, she also spared a glance at Nash.

"Belial's eye and The Eye of Ra in the same team, this feels like a dream." Alexandra didn't expect two awakenings at the same game. Not only that, it happened during the tryouts; increasing her surprise to another level.

"Like his father, Nash had awakened his Belial's eye. But in Akihiko's case; the last sighting of the Eye of Ra was when Mr. Clutch was still playing, Jerry West." Alexandra mumbled to herself.

"But at the same time, he's different from Jerry West. There's someone else I see in him" As she looked at Akihiko's back, a reflection of an NBA legend showed up while at the legend's back was the number 23.

She quickly summarized everything that had happened and immediately blew her whistle to make an announcement.

"This is the end of the tryouts, the people I will call are the ones who have passed. Do not fret if you're not called, there's always next year."

She then called the ones who passed the tryouts as the ones who passed were filled with joy while the ones who failed just walked out of the gym with sadness written all over their faces.

Alexandra then said

"For the final announcement, the first team practice will begin tomorrow after classes."

While walking out of the gym with William at his side, there were a lot of females students waiting for. Akihiko immediately predicted as he ran away for his dear life, leaving William behind who was tackled to the ground by Akihiko's newly formed fan girls.

Akihiko reached the school's exit as he looked outside. He immediately saw his car as he ran towards the car door and opened it. After opening it, Charles was surprised as he then asked

"What seems to be the matter, Young Master?

Akihiko who wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible said

"Floor it, let's get out of this place"

Charles looked at the rearview mirror and saw numerous amounts of girls about to approach their car. Charles immediately stepped on the pedal as the car drove away, leaving the girls in distraught.

Akihiko sighed in relief as disaster was averted.

....

The next day, after class

The girls were reprimanded by the Dean as Akihiko told him about his problems. Akihiko was walking to the gym alone, William had something to do and it was still very early because their class had ended first in their batch. Akihiko arrived at the spacious gym. He was carrying his gym bag as he planned to change in the locker room.

When he opened the door. He immediately covered his eyes as he was blushing. A voice immediately said and teased

"Oh, well if it isn't Akihiko. You should take responsibility for seeing your coach's body."

Akihiko was greeted by the seductive body of his coach. He was now trying his best to act calm.

He did what he can do as he immediately did a thumbs up and said

"I like the view!"

Mind you, Akihiko was a virgin at his mental age of 30+. He has no experience with women, but what kind of idiot would refuse this majestic and glorious view. Along with his hormones acting up, Akihiko would not refuse anything. In fact, it is a sin to refuse.

Alexandra just laughed at him as she said

"Now, can you leave? I'm still changing"

Akihiko who was still surprised said

"Y-yes."

He immediately closed the door as he imprinted what he had seen in his mind.

....

Minutes later

A question popped out of Akihiko's mind as he thought

'Is it immoral for someone who is actually 30 years old and inside of a child's body to fall in love with a person who has the same age as them physically, and a person who has the same age as them mentally?'

After seeing his Coach leave the restroom while giving him a teasing glance, Akihiko got into the room and got changed.

After leaving the locker room, Alexandra's coach asked him a question,

"Would it be possible for you to accompany me later? I would like to introduce some little guys to you"

Akihiko then realized that the two little guys that Alexandra was mentioning were Kagami and Himuro.

Akihiko then replied

"Sure."

What Alexandra wanted was to expand her two little students' views. She wanted them to realize that there is always a bigger picture. And with Akihiko's sheer skills and talent, it should work.

She didn't want her students to become arrogant so this will help them by a lot.

...

Nothing really eventful happened during practice.

Alexandra and Akihiko were the only ones left in the gym as the rest of the people immediately left.

Akihiko had already changed into his school uniform as Alexandra also got changed, in the females locker room this time. Apparently, she liked using the male locker room if she was alone at the gym.

Alexandra then approached Akihiko and said

"Let's go."
