Chapter 14: Chapter 13: You’re only at this level?

Judging by his expression, the tennis club captain’s intentions were obvious.

Seiji had never expected that one day he would receive enmity from other males due to his handsome appearance. He just didn’t know what to make of it.

Alright, he was already mentally prepared for it after seeing the boys’ attitudes earlier in class.

He should probably reject the invitation to play… but judging from the captain’s expression, as well as the hostility being emitted by all the other boys, Seiji felt like it wouldn’t be that simple to reject his invitation.

On the other hand, it was true that he wasn’t playing seriously with Mika. He was only having some light exercise with Mika. Since his physical ability stat had already surpassed 60, he was slightly curious to see the full extent of his ability if he played seriously, and he wanted to compare himself to the captain that had "almost made it to nationals."

After mulling over it for a few seconds, he nodded his head in agreement.

"I don’t know if I’m really all that talented… but I can’t go all out against a girl, so if the captain is willing to teach me some tennis, I’d be more than happy."

Aizawa was surprised that he had accepted his invitation so willingly.

The other boys watching this felt their enmity increasing even further!

"You should ‘teach’ him to the best of your abilities, Captain!"

"Show him what tennis is truly about, Captain!"

"It’s time to show him your real power, Captain!"

Many people got agitated to the point of shouting out loud before they immediately felt the hostile glares of the surrounding girls upon them.

"What are you saying to a first-year student that’s only a beginner?"

"Are you guys just jealous? How awful…"

"That’s why the boys in our club are…"

The girls made numerous negative remarks, which caused the boys to suffer yet another critical hit on their already injured hearts as well as rubbing salt into their wounds.

As Aizawa regained his senses, he looked at the other male members that had never been so energized as a team before, and he smiled faintly at them, giving a huge thumbs-up.

"Captain!!!"

The boys all felt like they were crying inside.

‘…It seems like I’m the bad guy here?’ Witnessing this spectacle, Seiji was speechless.

"Seigo, are you really going to play against the captain?" Mika was slightly concerned about him.

"Mm, it’s a rare chance for me… Don’t worry, I’m just trying this sport out—this isn’t a competition or anything." Seiji smiled at her confidently.

"But… I’ve never seen the captain looking so serious before…"

Upon hearing this, Seiji coughed awkwardly and remained silent.

Mika exited the practice field, while Aizawa entered the field, and they faced off against each other.

"You can serve first." Aizawa posed in a way that he felt was quite gentlemanly as he tossed the ball to his opponent.

Seiji had an average serve.

Aizawa chased down the ball, and as if he was performing, he swung his arm grandly, and his racket made a booming sound as he returned the serve!

The tennis ball arced upwards in the air, landing about three or four meters to Seiji’s side, instantly bouncing away.

"Perfect!" All the boy students were sighing in praise.

"Heh, Harano-san, how was that ball just now? If you think it’s a bit too difficult, I can go a bit easier on you." Aizawa tried his best to not sound pretentious.

"It was alright." Seiji said faintly as he caught the ball that Mika tossed back to him, "You don’t need to go easy on me, Captain—feel free to play however you like."

As he said this, he served again.

Aizawa returned it once more, and this time the ball landed even farther away from Seiji!

And then, just as everyone thought the ball would bounce unanswered again, Seiji suddenly increased his speed and accurately returned the ball before it flew out of bounds!

‘Ha, although he increased his speed, but… it’s still useless!’ Aizawa triumphantly shouted in his heart as he returned the ball beautifully yet again.

This time, Seiji wasn’t able to catch up to the ball, so Aizawa scored again.

"Ah, I apologize. I thought you would be able to keep up—it seems like I overestimated you. From now on, I’ll be careful to go easier on you." Aizawa’s eyes glinted with a mocking light as he spoke.
