609 Humanity was slaughtered! (1/2)
It was quite normal for Mika to be delighted about her boyfriend's excellent performance.
The other students in Year 1 Class 5 were delighted as well. Having the dragon on their side was just such a wonderful feeling!
The other classes' girls also had sparkles in their eyes as they enjoyed Seigo's action. Although they all knew that he had a girlfriend now, he was still handsome and easy on the eyes.
As for how good he actually was at football, basketball, or whatever sport, that didn't matter—because he was handsome.
Everyone knew that football was a team sport.
But, everyone who saw his shooting skills just now started to think that 'he really is capable of winning a game all by himself'!
Even Naruki Yamada was shaken in his beliefs.
It was impossible for him not to be shaken. Seigo's outstanding physical abilities were out of this world! It seemed as if the main character of a sports manga had just transmigrated to the opponent's side of the field.
The Magic-Devouring Dragon overturned all the previous doubts that Naruki had about him. This was a complete slap to the face. In fact, even Naruki's way of thinking about football being a team sport was shaken!
Teamwork was supposed to be more important than individual ability in football. No matter how strong an individual was, that person's overall use to the team would still be limited… Was his way of thinking wrong?
'…No!!!'
Naruki grit his teeth and firmed his conviction.
There was nothing wrong with his way of thinking. It was impossible for just one person to play football, no matter how amazing he was!!
”Everyone! We haven't lost yet!” Naruki shouted towards his teammates. ”Didn't we already know beforehand that the Magic-Devouring Dragon is ridiculously strong? Even if he's stronger than we anticipated, it's still nothing much! We're a team, yet he's only one person! We can win as long as we all work together and have teamwork!! The battle is only beginning!!”
Naruki's hot-blooded words were transmitted to his teammates.
Indeed, everyone knew already that the Magic-Devouring Dragon was quite strong.
It was precisely because of his strength that everyone paid attention to him! That was why slaying this dragon would be so worthwhile!
The score was merely tied! They hadn't lost yet! This was only the beginning!!
The heroes got rid of their shaken emotions and stirred their morale up again thanks to their leader's encouragement.
After receiving the ball, they attacked even more fiercely than earlier! After several excellent passes, the striker attacked the goal with full force!!
*Smack!*
Year 1 Class 5's goalkeeper solidly managed to block this ball.
The goalkeeper was Shouhei Watari.
Shouhei swiftly passed the ball to Takashi Kobayashi. Takashi passed to Kazufuru Ooike, and Kazufuru then passed the ball to Seiji.
Football was a team sport. Seiji highly agreed with this as well.
He knew that it would be impossible for him to play football alone. He never had such an arrogant way of thinking where he believed he could win all by himself. Nor did he need to.
Although his classmates viewed him as a super ace, they didn't worship him to the degree of being a god. They didn't intend on leaving everything up to him alone.
Every person on the team would do their own job. He was the same. That was all there was to it.
As several opposing players ran over to fight for the ball, Seiji kicked the ball super high up into the air like last time. He then dashed past everyone else!
”The same tactic again!” Naruki grit his teeth and sprinted at top speed.
He ran as fast as he could to where the ball was falling. He jumped up to fight for the ball!
Seiji jumped up once more and kicked the ball with another cartwheel kick!
However, this time he wasn't aiming for the goal. He passed instead!
Koji Hoshihara received this pass, and aimed for the goal… his kick went inside!!
The score was now 2 to 1. Seiji's class was now in the lead.
Naruki fell silent.
”He's only one person…” This was too arrogant as a way of thinking.
Seigo wasn't by himself at all! While he was ridiculously strong, he still cooperated with his teammates.
