LIFE IN DIAMOND NO ACE WORLd

4 friends progress and koshien

We were on our way to our inn assigned to us by sponsors of the koshien tournament in our bus . Everybody was quiet but their minds were filled with excitement to play with strong teams at such a sacred place.  I was naturally excited too .

I even arranged that sakura chan , kids from orphanage,  my kind neighborhood and my friends from middle school could stay for full tournament and watch me beat the shit out of opponent teams . Well I had the money so it was not that difficult.  There was a large church near the koshien stadium , so I just buy it dirt cheap and sent some people to remodel it into a large mansion. 

Nobody realised this loophole including the government for so many years . The church was out of town near the large roadway and had a large courtyard.  Well to sum the size up it would be larger than our school and training facilities added . I bought it only for a million YEN from government.  The only explanation was that there was no real estate value to the place so nobody bothered to check the price .

I already checked the completed mansion with sakura chan a month before . It was beautiful and if now the whole land could be sold for at least 5 billion yen according to the real estate agent who already asked me to register it for sale which I declined as it was a beautiful place .

The match was more than enough for everybody to live there.  I even assigned pro butlers,  chefs and gardeners to take care of them.  Gardeners so that the children could play in the huge garden safely. 

It took huge money for all the arrangements.  Including the 1 million to purchase the land deed , I spent 20 million YEN.  I even hired a housekeeper to stay there all day for the full year . His name was mr inui coachs friend from school days . Coach introduced him to me when I asked him to introduce a perfect man for the job because of his wise connections in different fields. 

There were more than 100 rooms that could best the 5 star hotels now . So I decided to hire mr inui who was a hotel manager before and told him to stay there with his family and make it a five star hotel with his experience.  I liked his character the same as coach humble and serious so I gave him full access to an account which was newly made  for the hotel . It contained 100 million yen for expenses that could be required for the procees and capital to start the hotel as the rooms and garden was already completed. 

I looked at my 4 friends who were now in the bench players list submitted to tournament committee and reviewed their progress inside my mind .

Eijun was now a top national  class pitcher with his control and numbers . Way better than mei as he was not a narcissist and only somewhat loudmouth and loyal man .

Kominato was now a more amazing batter than his brother.  It was so because he had more amazing bat control,  better meet point skill as he used a wooden bat from way before.  He knew instantly the meet point for most of the balls so his rate was way higher than his brother  . For fielding ,he was not even close to his brother yet because it required more practice time and experience in close games. 

Furuya was a way better pitcher now from the jingu tournament but not even close to my level yet.  His stamina reserves improved greatly and he could pitch a full game heck even some extra innings if he controlled the power of his pitches correctly . His fastball , slider control improved greatly now and would improve more after the tournament as he would experience during the matches with  strong batters .

Kanemaru was more of a all rounder now . He had bat control as good as ryouke stamina,  swing speed as good as masuko senpai and character more like yuki senpai.  It means that he was a very reliable batter for the coach . In short his skills improved way more than anybody during the off training period.  I told him when he was in slump due to lack of talent in a particular field that he should ask personal guidance from yuki senpai , ryosuke senpai while he trains and I would give him pointers at night to improve more quickly with solid basics . Because of the training , he was now a irreparable member of the team .

While I was thinking this , we arrived at the inn and got our rooms . At night I secretly went to meet sakura chan because I was missing her and swung my bat before sleeping .

In the morning we saw the match ups where teams evaluation was written properly by the committee. Like komadai fujimaki and all over evaluation of  A . While our team had fielding B , pitching A and batting B . This made our members mad and I explained that it was based on our previous tournament matches not our actual strength. 

I went to the mansion where everyone had already arrived and were settling in their rooms. I greeted the old people from my old neighborhood,  and saw that their grandchildren were playing with the kids from various orphanages and sakura chan was watching them with a cute expression.  I stole a kiss from her secretly and she started chasing me in the garden furiously . The children laughed cutely at this scene. 

I spent my whole day there and went to the inn at 5 PM as it was the start of our meeting for our first match tomorrow.
