Chapter 275 Arcade Climax
The reason why Hiro could score those freekicks successively in a row was because of his skill Fireball Shot.
His skill Fireball Shot could enhance some of his stats temporarily while taking freekicks and long range shots for three times.
However all along although he had been relying on his skill to score these freekicks, he hadn\'t been overtly relying solely on the skill as well. Afterall his skill wasn\'t actually complete.
Infact Hiro could only display a fraction of it\'s original might because of one particular reason- there were simply no living people standing infront of him who acted as the wall.
To display the full potential of the skill, living people were needed. However right now what stood infront of him, acting as a wall wasn\'t people but mannequins.
Still combined with his own efforts and skill focus, he was still somehow able to manage to score this three freekicks in a row without failing.
"Ohhhh!!"
"So close..."
The crowd cried out as they expressed their disappointment upon witnessing Park Seung-gyu missing his freekick again.
It was already his fourth shot and till now, he had only managed to score once.
Anxiousness flashed past Park Seung-gyu\'s eyes as his expression turned bitter upon seeing his shot miss the post.
"Tch..." Park Seung-gyu bitterly clicked his tongue out of disappointment.
Only being able to score once after trying for four times, even Park Seung-gyu who was determined to strip Hiro\'s smile was now growing anxious.
Afterall why wouldn\'t he be anxious? While he only managed to score once from four tries, his opponent had managed to score three out of three.
And who knows if Hiro will even miss?
Thus it was totally reasonable for Park Seung-gyu to get anxious and agitated.
"Ahhhhh so close..."
At the same time, South Korean players with their faces contorted in displeasure, grabbed their heads as they grumbled while expressing their disappointment.
Their faces as pale as paper and their eyes a bit listless, it seemed like a dark shadow was looming over the faces of South Korean players.
On the other hand, Japanese players with their eyes brimming with joy seemed quite elated.
"Yessssssss"
Their energetic loud voice was like the sound of thunder- piercing the eardrums of everybody present around them.
For South Korean players, their cheerful shout filled with ecstasy resonating all over the place was like rubbing salt on their wounds.
However to Japanese side, the grumble of the opposing players was like music to their ears; extremely soothing. And Park Seung-gyu\'s failure was like fuel to the fire of excitement which was burning within them.
Although after this miss from Park Seung-gyu, Hiro had the opportunity to further increase his side\'s lead, Hiro however wasn\'t reacting like his teammates.
With no changes in his facial expression, he seemed as calm as ocean.
With three accurate shots, he had already managed to turn the tables. Leading the duel with a score of 10-9, but now he had another opportunity to further increase his sides lead by two goals.
Still not even a spec of happiness could be found on his face. It was like Hiro wasn\'t even interested by the thoughts of increasing his sides lead.
However that wasn\'t the case. Outwardly he was maintaining his demeanor while inwardly he was celebrating, \'Yesss... With this I\'m a step closer to completing this quest\'
While his teammates could only save themselves from humiliation, Hiro had the opportunity to grab a wow-factor which could most probably elevate his performance to a level further if his side won this duel.
So why wouldn\'t he be happy? He was the one who was most happy right now. Not only could he gain his teammates recognition, he could also benefit personally.
Even so why wasn\'t he reacting? It\'s not like anybody would harm him, if he reacted.
However his calm demeanor was only a facade. Infact he was only maintaining his demeanor to intimidate his opponents.
By intentionally showing no chanes in his facial expression, he was trying to get inside the head of his opponents.
Afterall a calm person is much more difficult to deal with than a dramatic person.
After Park Seung-gyu retreated, Hiro calmly stepped forward for his turn.
"Will he score again?"
"Please miss..."
As Hiro stepped forward, a lot of curious, pleading, wishful gazes landed on him.
Hiro however didn\'t pay any attention to this gazes and solely concentrated all his focus on the post infront of him. He didn\'t even bat an eye to the people around him.
Since Hiro had already used his skill Fireball Shot to it\'s limit, he couldn\'t use it any more. Meaning right now, he didn\'t have any skills to rely on.
He could only try to score the goal with his own effort. Luckily there was still some time for his skill focus to lose it\'s credibility.
Thus even at this moment, he could avoid the unnecessary noises coming from the crowd.
Free from distraction, Hiro then focused his attention to the ball placed infront of him. Intently staring at the ball, Hiro slowly rolled his eyes towards the mannequin, keeper and the post as he prepared to take his freekick.
\'All those three freekicks which I shot before, I shot them either at the top corner or the bottom corner\' While staring at the ball, Hiro began to contemplate his past actions.
Learning from his past actions, although he couldn\'t use his skill Fireball Shot anymore for today, he still wanted to replicate his previous action to convert this freekick.
Thinking about the freekicks he had taken before, his focus peaked.
Finally Hiro eased his tensed shoulder and let out a mouth full of turbid air before starting his run-up. Since he wasn\'t much far away from the ball, he didn\'t take long to reach the ball.
Within few seconds, he appeared infront of the ball.
