Chapter 33

"If I can adjust properly, I should still be able to win!"

Atobe Keigo remained unconvinced, speaking only faintly.

"Don't beg me; it wasn't my decision."

"This is what Coach Sakaki asked me to tell you."

Hearing this, Shishido Ryo dropped to his knees.

A trace of despair also arose within him.

"Why!? I only lost one point!?"

Hearing his shout, Atobe Keigo spoke faintly.

"You look terrible, to have produced such a result."

"And you didn't even lose to the opposing captain; you lost far too disgracefully."

"You know that Coach Sakaki will not give another chance to someone who loses."

"Stop talking."

After saying this, Shishido Ryo, in a rage, walked away directly.

Watching his departing back, Atobe Keigo sighed.

Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki spoke quietly.

"Captain Atobe, Coach Sakaki didn't actually pass any message to you, did he?"

Atobe Keigo took a sip of his drink to ease his mood and said.

"Coach Sakaki won't abandon Shishido Ryo's regular player status just because he lost one point."

"These were words I spoke on my own initiative."

"If Shishido Ryo cannot awaken, then his tennis path is effectively over."

Hearing these words, Kamishiro Aki nodded.

I see; there was indeed a hidden reason.

In that case, Coach Sakaki often takes the blame!

Feeling sorrow for Sakaki Taro for one second.

But this is for the best; Shishido Ryo will mature sooner.

Afterwards, Atobe Keigo sighed again.

"It seems we cannot underestimate Fudomine."

"Although Shishido's state of mind was unstable, he shouldn't have lost so disgracefully."

"It shows that Fudomine still has strength."

"And Ootori is too easily influenced by Shishido."

These words were spoken for Kamishiro Aki to hear.

As if intentionally or unintentionally passing on insights as club president.

Kamishiro Aki merely listened without speaking.

Soon, the break time ended.

The first doubles match began.

This match was won.

Because of the presence of Inui Yukito, the score was 6:1 for victory.

The next match was the singles three match.

In other words, Kamishiro Aki was about to take the court.

Seeing this, Atobe Keigo smiled.

"Go! Let me see your true strength!"
