Chapter 87 – 87. A Day Without Regrets

One morning, a few days before the promotion.

Ryu Seo-yoon, who was sleeping in her dorm, woke up from her seat rubbing his eyes at Ji-hye’s call her.

“Why… “

It was Ryu Seo-yoon who was tired from being severely punished today.
I wanted to get a good night’s sleep and prepare for tomorrow.

But when I looked at Jihye Lee with her bolmen sound of her, I could see her making a serious expression on her puck of her.

“What’s up?”
“… There is nothing special… “

Since they were friends of the same age and had seen each other for a long time, there was no fault in treating each other.

Silence lasted a long time.
When her Ryu Seo-yoon made her look dissatisfied, Lee Ji-hye, who was hesitant to count, told her the purpose of calling her.

“Have you ever been educated with her leader sister?”
“…Yes?”

By her leader sister her, she meant Kang Yul, and by education, she meant being bullied by her coach her.

As she said, while preparing for her promotion, she went through a lot of training with Kang Yul.
She even had 2-on-1 bottom line battles, and was even subjected to corporal punishment.

Ryu Seo-yoon recalled those memories and bowed his head in silence.

That alone was enough to answer.
Jihye Lee said as if nothing happened.

“I was also educated. With the leader.”
“!!!”

In fact, Ryu Seo-yoon also guessed to some extent.
Recently, the coach and Kang Yul spent more time together, and the subtle atmosphere has changed.
If I had noticed, I couldn’t have known.

“Why are you telling me that all of a sudden?”

Ryu Seo-yoon looks at Lee Ji-hye with a questionable face.

To that, Lee Ji-hye slowly spoke her own thoughts.

“Perhaps the white sister also received education with the leader.”
“… I guess so.”
“That’s probably why the leader has improved a lot like us.”
“Yes… So? Are you going to be jealous?”

Jealousy.
No woman likes her her boyfriend her dating multiple women at the same time.

If the relationship between them and her coach was a normal lover, there would be nothing to say even if they broke up right away.
Not even both legs, but after putting on three legs, I was aiming for the fourth leg.

However, their relationship is never normal.
It is not a relationship that is bonded with each other and dating equally, but a relationship that obeys the coach for various reasons.

That is why it is ambiguous to mention jealousy.
We’ve never been in a relationship in the first place, so what pretext would you block the coach’s wishes?

“I’m not jealous.”
“…Then?”
“I just want to know why.”
“Reason?”

Jihye Lee shook her head and continued her explanation.

“As you know, lately, the leader has been practicing without even sleeping properly.”
“Yes… To the point of concern.”
“It’s definitely not because I suddenly want to be good at the game. It’s most likely because of the leader’s former team, which we will meet in the promotion match.”
“Ah. I think I know.”

Seoyoon Ryu also nodded her head as if he understood.

“The leader has a reason to beat the original scene, and the coach is helping. You want to know why.”
“Yes. And if I can help, I will.”
“Good idea.”

Hearing all of Lee Ji-hye’s plan, Ryu Seo-yoon smiled brightly.

Ryu Seo-yoon could not imagine his daily life without a coach, but he had a reason for putting up with his coach meeting many women.

Because all the women the coach touched were members of her team her.

Lee Ji-hye, who is now in front of her eyes, and Baek Ha-yeon, her her own bottom duo, are her comrades her who went through all kinds of things and went up together until she was promoted.

They were thinking that it would be okay for them to share a coach who was like their everything.

That’s why if Kang Yul is suffering because of the original scene, he can’t be left alone either.

First, listen to Kang Yul about the situation, then risk your life before this promotion.

“Um… What are you all doing there?”

At that moment, the door to the room opened and white white appeared.
He was staggering, rubbing his eyes as if he hadn’t woken up, but his face was full of curiosity.

At dawn, Lee Ji-hye, from another dorm, came and whispered to her as if conspiring against her, which made her wonder.

Ryu Seo-yoon thought it was okay.

“Sister! That’s what I mean…”

She told Lee Ji-hye about all of her circumstances.

A story telling Kang Yul to listen to all the facts and help him if he can.

Baek Ha-yeon nodded her head even in the midst of dozing off.

“Great… But leader unnie still hasn’t come?”
“Uh. Go, she’s still practicing.”

And the tiger would come if I said it.
Just then, the sound of the key being pressed on the front door was heard.

Soon after, the door opened and Kang Yul appeared.
Her face was full of fatigue because she had been working on her practice her until late lately.

Kang Yul looked surprised at the three women gathered in the living room.

“…What are you all doing here?”

Lee Ji-hye, Ryu Seo-yoon, and Baek Ha-yan, who looked at each other at the question, opened their mouths on behalf of Ryu Seo-yoon, as they had put together.

“Leader sister! I have a question for you.”
“Yes?”
“What happened to the original scene?”
“……”

Kang Yul, who was asked an unexpected question, made her stiff.
It was her past her that only her coach knew about yet, but she seemed to notice her teammates as well.

Yul Kang began to ponder whether she should tell her teammates the story, which she might be a bit ashamed of.

However, she continued to say that she could no longer be troubled by the words of Hak-Ha-Yan.

“I… I even showed her naked body to her leader sister…”
“……Uh…”

A woman whose face turns red at the blatantly white words.

It was.
Their relationship has become too close to hide the past for one reason or another.

“Okay.”

In the end, Kang Yul said in a tone as if she had made up her mind her.

“I will tell you everything.”

And after a while
When Yul Kang opened up about her original scene and her own relationship her, her teammates who heard her story her were naturally furious.

“Could it be that there are still directors like that?”

After talking about it, why does their coach Kim Jung-soo come to mind?

Seoyoon Ryu glanced at Kang Yul.

“Then… Leader unnie, do you think our coach is okay?”

Whether it’s making them practice until late in the evening, or giving them the role of humiliating their teammates.
In a way, it is bullying that is not very different from Angry Park.

No, in terms of sexuality, it is much more advanced than Angry Park.
At least he had never touched Angry Park sexually.

“……”

Kang Yul thought for a moment and thought about her coaching her.
The first thing that came to her mind was the taurine drink and chicken breast snack she had received the other day.

The food that was placed on the table when I came out of the capsule after a hard practice until late in the evening.
It was a warm attention that he had never received from Angry Park.

“It’s different from our coach… “

After such thoughts, Kang Yul slowly brought out the conclusion.

“This time, I received education because I wanted it. If so, you can endure it.”

After hearing Kang Yul’s answer, the girls looked at each other and nodded.
Now that she got clear answers to even the parts that made her feel uncomfortable, their work was decided.

“Sister!”
“Yes?”

Kang Yul, who was ashamed of the fact that she had revealed all of her past her, replied with her awkward tone.

Then, her Ryu Seo-yoon continued her words with an attitude that seemed to eat her at any moment.

“Can we play more games now?”
“…That’s true.”
“Then let’s practice!”
“Now?”

Soon it was time for the sun to rise.
If you don’t sleep now, your condition will be affected tomorrow.

But they were reckless.

“I have to do it now.”
“Yes. I want to practice now too.”

It was because the story of Kang Yul ignited a fire in their hearts.
And soon after, Lee Ji-hye took out her cell phone her and called Han Yu-na, who was sleeping for a while.

“Grunt… What’s going on at this hour?”
“Unni, can we go to the PC room right now?”
“…Now? What’s going on?”
“You have to practice.”
“…Uh?”
“I will explain later. Go to the PC room first!”
“Ah Okay.”

Even Han Yuna was sent to the PC room, so now I can’t even take it off and practice all night.
As Kang Yul stood with her trembling expression on her face her, Seoyoon Ryu approached her with a smile on her face.

“Leader sister. Let’s drop the original scene and promote it!”
“Yes…”

My body was more tired than ever, but my mind was sober.
It’s probably because of her teammates running alongside her.

So the angels spent a never-ending day talking about strategy all night long.

The next day, I was very scolded by coach Kim Jung-soo who entered the practice room, but the team members got along better than ever, so it was a day with no regrets.

###

The day of the promotion match had dawned.

Inside the car heading to Arena Park, a stadium dedicated to arena competitions in Seoul.
The atmosphere of our team was as spleen as a soldier going to war.

In fact, the competition was no different from war.
Due to the nature of e-sports, it is not physically demanding, so many people think it is easy, but it is never as easy as it seems.
It is a fight that requires great patience and concentration.

I turned on my cell phone and looked for the first game of the promotion match that was being relayed in real time.

The Daejin is the Neo Trans team, who fought like us in the 3rd division,
A shooting star team that needs to defend against relegation from the second division.

It didn’t matter which of the two teams came up, but personally, my heart went to Neo-Trance.
It seems like they’ve become attached to each other knowingly or unknowingly because they’ve matched a lot in scrims and met in tournaments.

And the game was going the way I wanted.

The current score for both teams is 2-1.
The Neo Trans team was leading by one point on match points.

As expected, it is not a team that is away from the 2nd division and fighting for relegation, so the 3rd division team was also struggling quite a bit.

‘A Neo-Trance team deserves to be in the second division.’

But as soon as I thought about it, the Neo Trance team started to fall behind.
The starting point was when Neto, the one-hander of the Neo Trans team, was cut off.

‘Looks like he’s been running out of stamina.’

It looked familiar to me.
If you play long-term or multiple games, your stamina and concentration will drop.
This happened often to our players, and because of that, I used an item called ‘Quality Stamina Pill’ the other day.

‘If this is the case… It must be hard to win.’

In the end, the score would go to 2-2 for both teams.
A great battle that filled 5 sets!

In the meantime, we arrived at Arena Park and followed the guide staff into the players’ waiting room.

“Waaaaa!!”

The shouts of the audience that reached the waiting room of the players.
It was so loud that the ground trembled as if an earthquake had occurred.

I couldn’t hold back my curiosity and turned on my phone to check the game results.

“Who won?”

Ryu Seo-yoon stuck out his head and asked.

“I hope the Neo-Trance team wins.”

She also seems to have a crush on the Neo-Trance team, which has seen her face her for a long time.
But unfortunately, her wish her did not come true.

“Shooting Star won.”
“Ah…”

The first match of the promotion match, Neo Trance VS Shooting Star.
In the end, after a close match that went to the 5th set, Shooting Star succeeded in defending against relegation.

Turning off my cell phone, I looked at the players gathered around me before I knew it.

After 2 weeks of rigorous training, Kang Yul has a clear look in his eyes.
Lee Ji-hye, who has grown even more with a new engraving this time,
Even after realizing that our team is far from an ordinary team, Han Yu-na sticks together.
Ryu Seo-yoon, who has to do it today.
Even though he lost weight, Baek Ha-yan has improved his skills as much as a big midfielder.

The moment has finally come to put the achievements so far to the test.

“Gather here.”

I gathered the five players together and looked at them.
It felt like a bouquet of flowers and made me feel better.

“This promotion match is definitely not going to be easy.”

Our players have also achieved noticeable growth, but there is still a long way to go.
It hurts to talk about the lack of individual physicals, and there are many things that are lacking in terms of management.

“Honestly, I don’t care if I lose.”

It was a lie.
Until now, I have not spared myself in selling even the day before the tournament in order to develop my players even a little bit more.

However, with only a few hours left before the promotion match, I can’t sell it for fear of ruining the players’ condition.

Because the time I worked hard with my children to come this far was so precious.
I didn’t want to be rash.

I continued talking.

“You guys are my players even if you stay in the 3rd division for the rest of your life. Even if you lose badly and come back as a miserable and pitiful little girl, I will accept you guys.”

Yeah, who would use guys like you if it wasn’t me?

The players nodded their heads with brighter faces.

So what should I do today?

Looking at her lecture her, she said, stunned.

“That, that’s only in-game.”
“So you’re not going to do it with me?”
“……”

Finally, closing her eyes, she held out her hand.
We stacked her own hands on top of hers.

“Bae, Battle Angels!”
“Ascension!”
