"Thanks for the food," Aoi, Shinsuke, and Sayuri said.
"It was really good," Aoi added.
"Come again sometime, you three," Aki replied. "It's fun eating with a big group of people."
"It sure is, ma'am," Sayuri replied.
"Alright! We'll win next match so Aki can make us another feast!" Tenma perked up with determination. "Shinsuke, Sayuri, let's do our best."
"Yeah!" Sayuri and Shinsuke replied while nodding.
"Then, we'll see you tomorrow," Shinsuke said as he head back home.
"Bye-bye," Aoi added.
"Later," Sayuri piped in as she headed back to her relatives' house.

Meanwhile, Tsurugi had been called to the Fifth Sector's headquarters where he spoke with The Holy Emperor.
"Tsurugi Kyousuke, Are you turning your back against us?"
Tsurugi frowned and looked down at the floor.
"You assisted in Raimon's victory. It was inappropriate behavior as a Seed," a man with green hair said.
"My apologies," Tsurugi said still keeping his gaze on the floor.
"If you disobey our orders again, your brother will lose his one and only hope."
At those words Tsurugi froze in shock.
"Are you okay with that? I have faith in you. Prove to me your true intentions in the next match," the Holy Emperor spoke.
"I understand," Tsurugi said.
"Then enjoy your soccer, Tsurugi," the Holy Emperor said. Tsurugi bowed and left the room.
"It seems a wind has begun to stir within Raimon."
"They are belittling that which must be utmost revered in the youth soccer World, the Fifth Law," another man said.
"Shouldn't we be taking down their soccer club as an example to the others?" another man said.
"No. The Raimon name is a point of admiration for young soccer players. Its power of influence is unfathomable. It would be more beneficial to us if we use this to our advantage instead of destroying it," the Holy Emperor said. The man bowed and gave his word.
"As the Holy Emperor wishes," and the other man bowed to.

The next day...
Sayuri and Tenma were heading to school when they notice Shinsuke practicing by riverside soccer field.
"What're you up to?" Tenma asked, interrupting Shinsuke, who fell to the ground in surprise.
"Sorry," Tenma apologized as he and Sayuri went down to help him.
"Are you okay?" Sayuri asked as she and Tenma helped him get up.
"What's that for?" Tenma pointed to the ball inside a net hanging from the tree branch.
"I'm practicing... a hissatsu technique," Shinsuke said. "I've been thinking about developing my own hissatsu technique."
"Really?" Sayuri was awed at this.
"I need to work harder, like you two. In yesterday's match, I couldn't stop Mannouzaka's attacks. If I get a hissatsu technique, I'll be more useful to the team."
