Jalak Harupat Stadium

Far in the west horizon, as the sun drew closer to its slumber, the sky transformed into an ever-shifting portrait.

What had been a brilliant blue canvas just an hour earlier, was now awash in vivid streaks of fiery oranges, deep reds, and blazing pinks.

Wispy clouds, floating above the west horizon seemed to be set alight from within, glowing like hot embers against the deepening background of indigo and violet hues that crept in from the east.

Down on the pitch, the lush green grass seemed to shine an almost electric emerald under the bright stadium lights that had just flickered to life. The freshly painted lines and crisp markings stood out in stark whiteness, ready to form the boundaries of an impending battle.

In the stands, the crowd was a rolling murmur of excitement and anticipation while more and more fans were flocking into the stadium.

Few people dressed in guard uniforms were showing the seats to those who had come to seek help. And while some had already made themselves comfortable, some were still trying to find their seats.

Though, compared to the capacity the stadium could house, the stadium appeared mostly empty with only a specific portion of the stand being filled with people.

As impressive as the lively sound coming from the stadium appeared, the attendance was rather lacking. Well, this much was to be expected, after all, it wasn't the match of the home team.

Inside the dimly lit tunnel, the atmosphere was rather complicated to explain.

A Crescendo of cheers kept on bombarding from the mouth of the tunnel, yet players dressed in blue appeared rather tensed while the players dressed in white seemed unbothered and carefree.

It's almost as if an invisible wall was separating these two sides from one another.

Compared to the looks on the eyes of the Polish side which were brimming with confidence, the defeated looks on the eyes of the Japanese side were like a gloomy day.

But even so, not every eye appeared lifeless. There was also the presence of eyes which was raring to step foot in the field in front and emerge victorious.

One such eye was of the person leading this gloomy side.

2) Provide an assist

3) Achieve an 8.5 rating

[Rewards; Copy one talent of any one player of the opposing team]

[Failure; Random two skills you possessed will be suppressed in the next game]

Such a quest which required satisfying multiple objectives had never occurred to him before and that to on random.

Thus, for a brief moment as it caught him by surprise, it caused him to halt his movement midway while marching towards the field.

Yutaka who was walking right beside him, given his absent-

mindedness because of the pressure from the match, bumped into him.

"Ahh..." Losing his balance after bumping into Hiro, he let out a soft cry.

Hiro however didn't budge even an inch. Well if Yutaka had meant to push him, he'd have lost his footing in the least. But right now since Yutaka himself was walking absent-mindedly like a zombie, even if he was not prepared it could hardly cause him any damage.

"Why are you stopping so suddenly?"

The players from behind complained as many of them bumped into each other because of Hiro's actions.

Well just like Yutaka, many players were anxious right now and thus, had lost their focus which caused this incident to take place in the field.

But still, the core person responsible for this incident was Hiro.

Most of the people in the crowd upon witnessing this comedic scene taking place on the field burst into laughter while some became extremely anxious.

Just from this incident alone, they could vividly spot the nervousness in the players they supported.

Traveling to such a faraway land, just to show support to their team, how could they rest at ease upon seeing such miserable condition of the players they were going to support?
