His Legacy (Blue Lock)

Chapter 9

Kira bit his bottom lip harshly, eyes exuding anger. "This is wrong... this is so wrong..." his lip bleeds as he speaks before he walks away and out of the door, no longer being Ryosuke Kira Japan's "National Treasure."

Everyone stares at his back before he closes the door. Everything stops as I sigh and sit down on the floor, tired of the emotional rollercoaster everyone had gone through already. I wipe the sweat off my head and chin as I listen to Isagi speaking to Bachira. Ego starts speaking but I only tune back in when I hear "the first time you felt true danger."

No, it wasn't, though I kept my mouth shut. "Were you scared? Shocked? That was just a taste of Blue Lock's essence." I closed my eyes, furrowing my eyebrows as he kept talking. "That is the feeling of victory, SO SHOVE IT IN THOSE BRAINS OF YOURS."

You could hear his smirk even from the screen. "Congratulations. You have passed Blue Lock's entrance test!"

Your room was designed for no more than 11 people, so from now on you'll cohabitate together. You fated eleven. You may cooperate with each other, and betray each other... you and the rivals you'll have to trample, are Blue Lock's Team Z."

I open my eyes, looking up at Ego before the screen turns black.

Three days after we arrived at Blue Lock, we had to take some tests.

A running test, where we ran on treadmills and got yelled at by Raichi Jingo to be faster. Even if I was running faster than both of them, I still got yelled at by him. Breathing heavily, I stared at Isagi who looked just about to throw up.

I went to grab my water bottle, grabbing Isagi's as I went by. I crouched down to his height before handing him his water, though when he reached out to grab his bottle, I noticed that his hand kept shaking.

"Here, Isagi, tilt your head back. I'll help you." I make him lean on me before placing his bottle to his lips, helping him drink it. It seemed a little weird, but it was for the best. "I recommend you relax for a while, don't want to injure yourself now do you?" I have him lean on the wall behind him and stand up to do my next test. The Jumping test was quite simple, just jump as high as you can. I crouch low, before springing up, knees popping loudly as I do so.

65 cm.

I land on the ground and crumble into myself, silently laughing at the pain that I felt. "Are you... okay, Victor?" Kuon Wataru raises a brow, looking at me and lending out a hand towards me, leading me to grab it. "Yeah, I'm all good, it just took me off guard," I chuckled, before sitting down and stretching out my legs on a bench.

That was a few seconds before the bell rang and it was classified as lunchtime.

I sigh as I got my serving of pickled radish, not the worst thing to get though. Isagi sighs, making a face when he sees that he got natto. The food seemed to change by rank, and my rank is the lowly 300. I sweat dropped before sitting down and eating my fill with Isagi and Gagamaru before Naruhaya Asahi sneaks up and takes one of Gagamaru's gyozas. "Hey squirt, give it back," I felt slightly sorry for Gagamaru, he might look slightly menacing, but he's such a sweetheart.

I chuckle, before looking back at my almost-done meal, feeling a pair of eyes boring into the top of my head. "Yes, Isagi?" I look up through my hair as I take the last bite of pickled radish.

"Oh, uh... I was just wondering why you took the ball from me during the entrance exam..." he said, "...and why you helped me drink my water today." He mumbled. 'Such a sweet boy...' I closed my eyes and leaned my head on my hand, pushing away my dish. "To answer your first question, I just felt like stealing it," I opened my eyes as I shrugged, huffing out a laugh as I looked at Isagi's expression. "For the second question, because I could. I wasn't going to let you faint from lack of oxygen or dehydration."

He nodded, a small blush on his face as I yawned. "It's time for bed now, I'll get going. I'll see you later." I say as I get up and take my dish away.

Before the other guys got into our room, I quickly washed myself up, changed, and laid down on my futon. I closed my eyes and went to sleep early before the ruckus of boys would come in. That also meant waking up earlier than everyone. I quickly washed, changed, and walked towards the gym to start a bit early, only to encounter a wild Bachira.

"Hey hey! Victour!" He says my name with a slight English accent, making me huff and cross my arms. "Hey hey, Bachira," I repeat to him before Isagi knocks into my back.

"S-sorry!"

"Oooo, are you going to train Isagi, Victour?? May I join you??"

"mmh, sure I guess." I nod, and before I notice, we are in team Z's training ground.

Isagi asks some questions about the Tag game to Bachira, only to have the answers made weird as he starts talking about a monster inside him, telling us that this monster guided him through his win and that Isagi has one too.

Bachira stares at me, before smirking. "' And he does too' the monster told me."

'Does he mean my selfish desire? My....'

'Ego?'

'Is my ego my monster?'
