Chris's eyes danced with amusement as he saw his son standing at attention. He was about to adjourn the gathering to give Ken some respite, however a peel of laughter came out in the next moment.
"HAHAHA, Good!"
For the first time, the players heard Coach Takashi laugh out loud with a giant smile on his face. He seemed to really enjoy Ken's response.
"At ease soldier."
With that he turned around and walked off, yet they could still hear his chuckles.
Suddenly, everyone who had been staring at Ken like he was an idiot, wished they had responded in kind. However, what person in their right mind would respond in such a way?
Hiroki and Daichi let out a sigh of relief seeing as how Ken wasn't singled out or reprimanded in anyway. One wouldn't want to get on the bad side of the Head Coach, particularly before the team was selected.
