"Phantom" made Yamato's shots go out of bounds again and again, but Yamato, who was overtaken by the score, didn't care too much. He just kept hitting his "phantom in a dream" and chattered endlessly.

"Tezuka-kun, you are always able to predict the direction and strength of the ball from the opponent's breath and movement. This is your unparalleled talent, but sometimes it becomes a burden, and you unconsciously react to the predicted ball path. My 'dream phantom', if it wasn't for an experienced, talented and observant player like you, there would be no room for it." Unexpectedly, Yamato explained the principle of his stunt, and Yamato followed through, "You always Prejudging, always caring about what other people think, that's your weakness, the reason why you can't just focus on tennis."

"With your talent, I thought you had opened the door to 'seamless clothes' long ago, but seeing you here, I began to reflect deeply. I shouldn't have let you make such a promise."

"I apologize to you. Now that your agreement with me has been fulfilled, please at least give some rewards to such an amazing self. I don't know what else you said 'should do', if it is just for the youth team. Victory, then I think you should trust your teammates more." As if being right, Tezuka's expression changed slightly, which was noticed by the opposite Yamato, and he smiled.

"You should think more about yourself. It's okay to be a little selfish. The so-called 'trump card' is not only the dependence of teammates, but more often everyone defaults that 'willfulness' is the attribute that a 'trump card' should have. Let go of you Wouldn't it be better to compete with the most authentic feelings with the heart that is considerate of others?"

A powerful return ball was hit in Yamato's half. Amid the exclamation of everyone, Maki witnessed the whole process of opening "Seamless Clothes" for the first time.

The light around Echizen Ryoma in the national competition was more dazzling and deeply rooted in people's hearts. Bathed in the seamless influence, Tezuka's body became extremely relaxed.The accumulated fatigue and exhausted physical strength seemed to have never happened. He never felt that fighting against an opponent could actually make him more and more energetic.

Maki leaned against the railing of the stands, quietly looked at Tezuka who seemed to be a different person, and smiled softly.

He shines brighter than anyone else, she already knows that.

With Tezuka Kunimitsu who opened "Seamless Clothes" as the opponent, there is of course no suspense about the result of the game.

When shaking hands in front of the net, Yamato said sincerely: "Tezuka-kun, you have a sense of responsibility more than anyone else. When I hurt my arm in a team competition, I was extremely depressed, so when I saw you at that time, I was impressed by your excellent skills. Attracted, I subconsciously want to transfer the responsibility I bear to you. I'm sorry, I let you bear the burden that doesn't belong to you early, and restrict your development, all because of my weakness."

"There is no such thing. I am very grateful to Minister Yamato for teaching me. It is because of your entrustment that I can have clear goals, and there are no constraints." Tezuka replied sincerely.

Yamato shook his junior's hand vigorously, feeling a little sad: "Even if it's my nagging, anyway, my senior is always talking nonsense." He said, rolling up his sleeves, revealing a ferocious streak on his elbow. scars.

That was the mark left after his surgery.

"Take care of your body more, it is your best partner in your future career. Don't leave such regrets like me."

"It's really great to be your opponent in the retirement match."

Tezuka walked off the court.

His teammates were very excited because they heard about the professional invitation and saw the "seamless clothes" with their own eyes. Tezuka didn't have the heart to deal with the twittering of these people. His eyes immediately fell on Maki Asai who was half leaning on the stands outside the crowd .

The girl had two fluffy braids, and a silver antler hairpin pinned to her ear, which he bought during his school trip to Nara. The breeze blew a few strands of hair around her ear, and she raised a hand to gently brush them away. Don't put it behind the ear, and smile softly at him.

"Congratulations," she said, tenderness in her lively eyes.Apparently, like everyone else, she thought he was about to accept an invitation to a professional team and would be leaving soon.

Tezuka looked at Maki Asai like this, suddenly a little speechless.

The team competition wasn't over yet, and the usually noisy teammates weren't really indifferent. Seeing his real girlfriend waiting beside him, they all retreated after making a few jokes.

Tezuka and Maki walked out of the field, and the lively sound of batting and cheering was gradually left far behind.

"When are you going to leave?" Zhenji said first, "There are a lot of things to prepare, right? After all, you are going to train and live abroad for a long time."

It would definitely be a bit reluctant to say that this is not the same level as the two of them are from different schools.But this is the future that the other party dreamed of. Of course, Zhen Ji is more happy for him, so when she said this, she didn't have any other meaning in it.

Tezuka turned his head to the side, looked at the unconscious girl beside him, and said in a deep voice, "I won't go."

Maki stopped suddenly.She eagerly turned around to face her boyfriend who was much taller than herself, and her voice suddenly raised: "Eh? Why? Didn't you always want to be a professional player?"

"That's the plan, but not now." Tezuka seemed very calm, much calmer than Maki himself.

Not now, when will it be?Maki opened his mouth, but didn't ask the question.

To take the professional path, it is the right time to start professional training and debut in competitions at the age of 15.After all, before becoming famous, any player has to go through countless endless training sessions and long matches to hone their skills and accumulate experience.

There is no overnight success in sports competitions, and all the achievements shown can only be accumulated.

"Is... what happened?" Apart from this, Maki couldn't think of any other reason for Tezuka to refuse such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, "Does your hand still hurt?" She suddenly became nervous.

"No, no." Hurriedly comforting his anxious girlfriend, Tezuka saw that she was more anxious than himself, and all the faint hesitation in his heart disappeared. "The injury is really all right, it's completely healed, and I have nothing else to hide."

"It's just that I don't think it's the right time yet." Asai Maki has always been considerate, she always puts his affairs ahead of her, and considers issues from his point of view.Senior Yamato said that he always bears too many responsibilities, which makes it difficult for him to relax, but in fact, he is always self-willed and selfish in front of Maki Asai, making her endure her feelings for him, and be frightened by his repeated admonitions.

Maki didn't ask again, but he didn't believe what Tezuka said.She stared at the boy's face, although she didn't force her, but her vivid eyes were filled with persistence.

How could such perfunctory rhetoric persuade her?She always knew his mind very well.

Under Maki's clear eyes, Tezuka pursed his lips awkwardly, he pushed his glasses as if trying to hide something, and his eyes drifted away for a moment.

"Didn't you also choose the helicopter because of convenience?" He finally said implicitly, "If you can overcome the difficulties, so can I."

The girl was very confused at first, and she stared at her boyfriend for a while with a puzzled expression, as if she hadn't understood the meaning of the other's words.

Slowly, her eyes gradually widened due to surprise, and surprise was written all over her face.

But unexpectedly, this surprise didn't last too long, instead of any emotion Tezuka expected, he received a high-pitched reprimand instead.

"Are you out of your mind?" The girl's pretty face was flushed with anger, her delicate brows were tightly furrowed, and her expression was full of anger.

Eh?Tezuka's face was blank, confused by Maki's abnormal emotions.

His chest heaved several times with anger, and Zhenji's voice began to tremble: "I don't want you to stay because of this inexplicable sympathy! Can you stop being so self-righteous and keep the so-called promise in this strange place ?”

"If you make an agreement with me, you must stupidly abide by it. If you get caught up in this kind of thing and ruin your career, I will never be able to face you in the future. In this case, even if you are close at hand, you will gradually Walking away, I hate it."

She thought of her former self, who could only watch Tezuka sacrifice his health for the team's victory on the sidelines. No matter how worried and dissuaded she was, he would never stop.

She remembered that once he stood on the court with the racket in hand, he would be so focused and indomitable, never relying on anyone's strength, always pursuing the desired ending alone.

In the past, she was attracted and admired by such focus and sharpness, but also sad and frustrated by such stubbornness.But there is no doubt that she never thought he was wrong.

"You have never really understood what I want. Do you think that I will be happy just because you let go of this opportunity for nothing? If you are so obedient, you will never Once again willfully hurting my body, I won’t ignore it repeatedly when I still want to dissuade you. Now you say you care about my feelings? I don’t want to be used as an excuse by you at this time!”

It was the first time that Maki lost such a big temper in front of Tezuka, so angry that he almost couldn't choose what to say, and he poured out all his inner feelings without thinking about the consequences.She almost finished the long list in a shout, and only after she calmed down did she realize how many exaggerated words she had said in anger.

Her intention was not to be angry with Tezuka's self-assertion, and of course it was not to hate him, she just didn't want the other party to have any irrational actions on such an important matter, and she didn't want to delay him.

I didn't expect that my mind would heat up, and the words I said were so unpleasant.
