Chapter 315 Back to Japan

As the airplane which was carrying the players of Japan after their victorious campaign at the Asian qualifiers descended through the clouds, players of Japan who a moment ago were totally fine became extremely tensed. A sense of excitement and anticipation permeated the cabin.

Anxiously some players peered out of the window. Immediately upon seeing this picturesque landscape and familiar scene which they had not seen for a long time, their eyes were filled with pure elation.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Some of them felt so relieved and happy that they couldn't stop themselves from shedding tears upon seeing this familiar scene which they missed so much during their stay at foreign land.

Well why wouldn't they feel elated? Afterall, after a grueling journey, they were finally returning their home country as victors. And just by the looks on their face, one could tell that many of them were etching to celebrate their triumph with their fans.

And the closer the plane descended to the runway, the more excited and anxious players started to feel. They knew that their match was broadcasted all over Japan. And they also knew it beforehand that many supporters would be present at the airport to welcome them.

Thus, because of such reasons, right now many players were both anxious and excited.

And Hiro who was seated at one of the window seat was the same as well. Although he wasn't showcasing this feeling on his face but it would be lying if Hiro said that he wasn't excited about this moment.

Would there be a feeling better for a player than celebrating their triumph with their supporters?

Sure enough they hadn't won the world cup yet. But still becoming the champion of Asia was a huge deal as well. Not as much as winning world cup. But at finals after a compelling battle, they had defeated one of their neighborhood rivals.

Finally the plane touched down on the tarmac and immediately the roar of the engines was replaced by the deafening roar of a waiting crowd. Many supporters were gathered around the airport to show their support to their valiant hero's who had returned home after a successful campaign, spreading the name of their country around the world.

"Can you hear them" Shun who was seated alongside Hiro, excitedly asked him.

"How many people would there be to welcome us?"

"Hehe... I just hope that I could numbers of some girls"

With joyous smile etched on their faces, they boarded off the plane while joking and conversing with each other. Right now, most of the players were quite loquacious. And Hiro who was standing at the rear of the queue could hear their loud chatter even at the place where he was standing.

"Hmph..... they sure look spirited for someone who didn't do much in the game" Hearing their idle chatters, Shun couldn't help himself from scoffing.

As mentioned by Shun, right now the players who hadn't had much impact in the game were being the most loudest while those who had made great impact on the game such as Hiro, Shun, Nijichi and few others were mostly silent.

Although Hiro himself found such loud chatters annoying but today he didn't mind any of those chatters— he knew that they were just excited because of their triumph.

Indeed he didn't like celebrating minor victories because of his belief to look at the bigger picture instead of indulging with minor victories but today, he didn't feel like holding himself back either. Like the rest of his teammates, he wanted to celebrate this moment.

After facing the Korean team led by Park Seung-Gyu, he didn't feel like it was a minor victory. Coming out victories in that neck and neck battle was a huge feat.

Thus today, he didn't bicker about the goofy attitude of his teammate, "Let them enjoy, player in the limelight aren't the only player who should get to enjoy the moment, they have all played their part equally well. So let them enjoy"

Hearing Hiro's answer, an unsettling feeling started taking shape in Shun as he found Hiro's words extremely perplexing.

Wasn't he the same person who lectured me about celebrating our first victory in the tournament?

Shun thought to himself while giving a "are you for real bro" look.
