Chapter 44: Heading to Seirin

Soon, Kira managed to get a nearby taxi and headed to Seirin High School. The distance between the two places wasn't too far, so it wouldn't take much time.

While in the car, Kira opened his system interface.

He currently had 160 points.

[Thunder Breath - Thunder Swarm (Locked, Unlock: 150 Competitiveness Points, and Rice Spirit already unlocked)]

Kira immediately chose to upgrade this skill, and new memories flooded his mind.

[Thunder Breath - Thunder Swarm LV1 Proficiency: 0% ]

With 10 points remaining, he could enter the practice space one more time.

In that training space, Kira was not bound by any time or location restrictions.

The surrounding scenery shifted, and in the blink of an eye, Kira, who was just in a taxi moments ago, found himself in a football field.

Without any hesitation, Kira, realizing the value of time, immediately used the Thunder Swarm.

The ball shot forward, But unlike the Thunderclap Flash, the ball didn't travel in a straight line. Instead, it drew a distinct curve in the air.

A curved ball!

This technique involves striking the ball at different positions on its surface to make it spin in the direction the player desires. The high-speed rotation of the ball also affects its trajectory in the air, often creating miraculous shots and passes, especially during free kicks.

However, being able to effectively use a curved ball on the field is incredibly difficult and requires the player to possess exceptional ball skills.

With Thunder Swarm, Kira could proficiently execute curved shots.

"This skill is very useful and can create impressive effects in matches, but the speed and power are lacking maybe combining Thunder Swarm with Thunderclap Flash can produce a special effect."

Thinking this, Kira proceeded to attempt a combination of Thunder Swarm with his previous skill.

.....

Soon, an hour had passed, and Kira's consciousness returned to the real world, back in the car once again.

In the reality of the world, Kira hadn't actually left.

After about an hour, Kira finally arrived at his destination, Seirin High School. As a newly established high school this year, its educational facilities were considered decent.

Kira took out his phone and informed Riko that he had arrived. She replied, saying she had some matters to attend to in the basketball club and asked him to wait for a while.

With nothing else to do, Kira stood at the school's entrance, idly playing with his phone.

The passing students around him couldn't help but cast their gazes upon him.

"Wait, I know him! He seems to be a football star from the neighboring school! His name is Kira!"

"So, that's Kira! I've heard his name before!"

While Kira was playing with his phone, he suddenly realized that he had unwittingly been surrounded by a group of girls.

"Excuse me, are you Kira?"

"Kira, I'm your fan! Let's take a photo together!"

"Kira, what brings you to Seirin? Can I have your contact information?"

In just a few minutes, Kira found himself completely surrounded by girls, leaving him no room to move. He could only maintain an awkward yet polite smile.

On the other side of the school, Riko had just finished arranging the training content for her team members. She hurriedly made her way towards the school entrance, afraid of keeping Kira waiting for too long.

However, as soon as she arrived at the school entrance, she was shocked by the situation before her.

"What's going on?"

In that instant, Riko momentarily thought something had happened at the school entrance for so many people to gather.

After a few seconds, she spotted Kira, surrounded by the crowd, and suddenly realized what had happened.

Kira had become the center of attention for others.

Without hesitation, Riko charged into the crowd.

"Excuse me, pardon me!"

Riko struggled to squeeze her way out of the crowd and grabbed hold of Kira's hand.

"Riko?"

Only then did Kira notice Riko's presence. Meanwhile, she firmly held onto his hand and swiftly led him away from the crowd, heading towards the basketball club's venue.

"Who is that person?"

"I've seen her before. Isn't she a first-year?"

"The one from the basketball club?"

The onlookers' gazes were directed towards the two of them, while Riko kept her head low, avoiding eye contact with anyone.

Finally, several minutes later, they arrived at the basketball gymnasium.

"Thank goodness they didn't catch up with us."

Riko glanced warily behind her, then focused her attention on Kira.

"Thanks, Riko. You saved me."

Kira smiled and expressed his gratitude to Riko. If she hadn't appeared in time, he would have been trapped at the school entrance for a long time.

"It's my fault. I should have come earlier!"

Riko spoke, looking at Kira. It had been almost half a month since they last saw each other, but Riko felt like it had been even longer. And for some reason, upon reuniting with Kira, she felt a slight sense of happiness.

However, when she saw Kira being surrounded by a group of people earlier, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

But Riko didn't dwell on it too much. She simply looked at Kira, wanting to say something but struggling to find the right words. After a while, she could only manage to ask:

"How have you been?"

After asking this question, Riko wanted to knock her own head. Ever since Kira got his phone back and they could contact each other, she had asked him this question almost every day. However, there was a noticeable difference between asking over the phone and asking face-to-face.

"Well, things have been okay," Kira replied with a smile, nodding his head.

"Then, let's go in first. The others are training, and you can come and watch!" Riko said.

"After training, let's go home and have dinner together... I mean, go to the gym. I already told my dad in advance, and he prepared a lot of delicious and nutritious ingredients! I heard the food at that Blue lock place was quite plain every day! So, I specifically prepared a lot of tasty and nutritious ingredients yesterday!"

"Sounds good!"

"Well, let's go in first. You can take a rest on the side or watch their training. I wonder if it'll be helpful for you!"
