Monster of Blue Lock

Chapter 1: "Tag" Game

•••

“In order for Japan to win a world cup.... We will create the best striker in the world. Which is why 300 of the best high-school forwards.... Have been gathered for this project.”

Ego's words transcended to those said 300 forwards. Currently, we are headed towards a lodging deep in the mountains.... We arrived, shortly after.

So this is the so called 'Blue Lock' building....

The program had very strict rules. One being where we aren't allowed to leave the place until further notice. Secondly, things like wallets and phones were confiscated.

One by one, they gave us all uniforms....

Except for me.

“Uhm, may I ask for your name please?” a beautiful woman ask for my name. In turns out, my name wasn't on the list of forwards.

“Ayanokouji, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka,” I answered.

“Uhm.... Ayanokouji... Aya.... No no. Ah, hold on a sec!” she panic, searching for my name.

“Ah— Mr Ego, there's one participant. His name is Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, but his name doesn't seem to be on the name list..... Okay.... Okay.... WHAT!? You forget to tell me of last minute arrivals!? Okay.... Okay.... I'll let him in,” she sigh.

Here's your uniform. I'm very sorry that you have to see that. It's just things are a bit rush. It's embarrassing....”

guess it's hard, working for Ego.

It's fine, things like this happens anytime,” I reassured her.

“Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, huh.... It's a beautiful name. Something like pure or noble, it has a nice ring to it,” she said.

Well, for starters. I'm not exactly pure, something down there might come out uninvited. This happens when I look at the woman right Infront of me. And noble huh.... Yeah it definitely has a nice ring to it.

“Well, since you know my name. Why not you introduce yourself,” I propose.

“Wah, but I ask you—well since I am a supervisor that will interact with the members here. And because you ask for it.... It's Anri Teieri. Ms Anri averted her eyes, shyly.

“Ahem! Anyway, here's your uniform,” she handed me a uniform with a 3 digit code number mix with a letter.

“Alright, now each of you will go to the room matching your uniform's letter. We'll notify you when to change into uniform,” she informed.

Upon entering, the place is built as a facility. It reminds me of home.

Waking through this labyrinth of concrete. I found a door which had the letter Z. Guess this is the spot. Glancing towards my shoulder.

I entered, glancing around the room. 9 people are inside. I noticed Kunigami, changing his cloth that the rest are wearing.

“Uhm, may I get through.”

I look towards my side, a lone boy with black hair stood still with the uniform we've received.

“Oh, sorry. I space out a lot when I analyst something,” I said. This is the second time I have block an entrance.

“That's fine. Uhm?” The lone boy probably wanted my name.

“Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, best we go in, so others don't look at us,” I replied, pointing the room.

Things were already awkward with the blocking entrance. Better not make a fool of yourself even more.

“Ah— sure. By the way, I'm Isagi Yoichi.” he bowed.
