『 CHAPTER 11 』

"So, remember how when we revealed to you about our over revolution group [Name]?" Miyabino turned to you while the group walked down the pavement.

You started shaking your head to rake your brain in search of the memory. Once you found it, you nodded at Miyabino.

Miyabino smiled. "Great! It just so happened after that event, Coach Kidou expanded the underground base⸺"

"Teikoku has an underground base?" everyone but you and Ryuuzaki chimed.

"Yeah. Coach Kidou was the one who⸺"

"Miyabino, back to the point," Ryuuzaki said.

"Fine fine. So anywho, yeah, we have a base, and Coach Kidou just added in a secret field for us to train in after the soccer ban was first announced."

"Unfortunately," Ryuuzaki added, "it's not fully complete, but the current progress on it should be safe enough for us to use."

"Safe enough, huh..?" Nishinosora pretty much voiced out everyone's concern.

When you all finally reached Teikoku, everyone entered the grounds. The group made way to the soccer field. There, you were faced with the familiar faces of Teikoku's soccer team and ⸺

"Hakuryuu?!" Namikawa and Ryuuzaki chimed.

"Oh, we meet again." Hakuryuu waved.

"What are you doing here?" Ryuuzaki asked.

"I had some business to discuss with your coach, and your captain over here," replied Hakuryuu.

"Really?" Miyabino narrowed his eyes. "Cap, what was it about?"

Mikado waved back at you when he noticed you waving, before answering, "It's in regards to the soccer ban. Emperor ⸺ ah, pardon ⸺ Gouenji-san had send Hakuryuu here to scout out the progress of our underground training facility."

"Haku!" You cheered out loud. You ran up to him with a hug.

He stumbled in surprised. Balancing himself, he chuckled and hugged you back. "Good to see you again [Surname]. How have you been?"

"Ok!" you signed him. It was then you noticed the wristband he had on and screeched, scaring everyone around you. You pointed nonstop at the wristband in question.

"Oh, you know what this is [Surname]?" Hakuryuu held up the bracelet.

"Isn't that just a ... regular bracelet?" Kishibe scratched his cheek.

"Hm, the design is rather sleek," Minamisawa commented. "Other than that, it does indeed look like a regular bracelet."

You shook your head. Whipping out your phone, you typed down something and sent a message. Your group received the notification, checked it out, read it, and their eyes widened as they gasped.

"What?! How come you have that?" Namikawa turned to Hakuryuu.

"Oh, are you guys aware of what's going on?"

"Yeah, cause [Surname] told us. So why do you have that?" Sousuke crossed his arms.

"Just to show that Gouenji-san trusts me. I was a part of an all-powerful team, after all."

Ryuuzaki and Namikawa rolled their eyes.

"May I ask what you all are discussing?" Mikado piped up.

"Sorry, but it's only a matter that them and I are privy too," Hakuryuu replied to him. Then, he turned to you guys again. "So, what brings you all here?"

"We were going to look for Coach Kidou to ask permission to use the underground training," Ryuuzaki answered.

"When it's still under construction?" Mikado asked.
