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.
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.

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.
His eyes sparkling with elation while his tone sounding extremely excited gave away his emotions which he was feeling at the moment.
Maintaining his composure, Hiro however calmly answered, "Yes, I can hear them completely fine. But you should calm yourself down first or else you might faint due to excitement"
Immediately upon hearing Hiro's response Shun made faces as he frowned his brows while muttering with somewhat dejected tone, "Tch... You're as stiff as ever"
lightsnοvεl Hiro however didn't mind his comments as he shrugged his answer while turning towards Yutaka who unlike others was looking a bit bothered at the moment.
"I'm really sorry Hiro... Sob! I nearly blew the game away and spilled water on your efforts.... sob!" Yutaka apologized in his crying voice while shedding tears.
While looking at Yutaka, Hiro couldn't help but reminisce the moment after the match when Yutaka came to him and apologized to him while shedding tears. That moment unlike other times, Yutaka seemed really miserable and pitiful.
It was true that at the final moment when the team counted on him, he nearly costed them their victory because of his inability to make accurate decision. But it was also true that he had prevented a threatening attack by making timely interception.
However even he himself overlooked that fact and only focused at his mistake. Like who doesn't mistakes? No matter how skilled a player is, when he's on the field mistakes are inevitable.
It's just that more skilled players minimize the mistake to some extent.
However even though Yutaka felt guilty about his mistake, Hiro wouldn't have put the blame on him even if they had lost the game. If anything, he would have blamed himself for not bring able to do better.
Finally after a short while the motion of the plane came to an halt and the air-hostesses stood by the door and instructed the players that they board off the plane one by one in a queue.
As she said those words, players started taking out their luggage and started boarding off the plane in a queue.The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to /n/o/vel/b/in.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"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.
