27.
This moment.
Inoue Mamoru was unable to control the volume of his voice and blurted out the words.
and.
It seemed that at this moment, it was heard by some people around.
"Hyotei's succubus? That's pretty fitting."
"This girl is really good-looking!"
"Rin!! Rin!! Look at me, Rin!!"
"Succubus Rin? That seems appropriate. Ever since he was expelled from Seigaku, my daughter has been clamoring to transfer to Hyotei!"
"My family is the same. I have transferred her to Hyotei. Hiss... Is it better for me to get to know him first? What if it really works out?"
There were discussions going on in the room.
The name "succubus" was inexplicably used by a small group of people.
Not far away.
Among the Ice Emperor crowd.
Matsuoka Rin, who had been smiling before, suddenly froze.
"Hahahahahahahaha I'm dying of laughter, Succubus Rin!"
Beside him, Atobe Keigo was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help laughing.
I can't believe that such a title would be given to a childhood friend of his. I want to laugh just thinking about it.
"puff!"
Mukaito, Shishido Ryo and others tried hard to hold back their laughter.
Even the always stern coach Sakaki Taro could hardly hold back the curve of his mouth.
Only Tezuka Kunimitsu remained expressionless, as if he was still feeling the difference between the atmosphere of Seigaku and Hyotei.
Even if he wasn't feeling it, he didn't seem to get it.
"You're almost there!"
Matsuoka Rin looked speechlessly at Atobe Keigo who couldn't stop laughing.
At the same time, I felt a splitting headache.
Who would have thought that his first title would be the Succubus of Ice Emperor! ?
What the hell is this? !
Let’s not talk about other people, let’s just talk about Atobe Keigo.
The other party's title is the Emperor of Ice, the Emperor of Ice.
At Rikkai University, those people also have their own nicknames, such as Yukimura Seiichi, who means the Son of God.
Genichirō Sanada is the emperor of Rikkai University!
There are many, many more...
But here he is, the succubus of Ice Emperor? ? ?
At that time, Matsuoka Rin looked at the tennis reporter who called out this name with a somewhat itchy look in his eyes.
"…Sorry, I'm Mamoru Inoue, a reporter for Tokyo Tennis Monthly."
Feeling Matsuoka Rin's gaze, Inoue Mamoru approached her somewhat embarrassedly and then apologized.
It's really inappropriate to give this kind of title to a player.
That's why his expression was so strange when he first learned about this title.
But he didn't expect that he would directly say this name out loud in shock.
"Inoue-no-Mori?"
Matsuoka Rin was stunned. He had an impression of this name.
In the memory he inexplicably gained, these were the only two tennis reporters who had a sense of existence.
"I'm sorry. I didn't pay attention and just called out this name I heard."
Inoue Mamoru continued to apologize, he was really a little embarrassed, not only did he call it out, but he was also caught by the real person.
"What's the name I heard?"
Matsuoka Rin narrowed her red eyes.
Soon, Mamoru Inoue explained that he was not the first to call this name.
But it was last week, no one knew who called it out, and it seemed that it started with Yamabuki. At the same time, another name was also called out, which seemed to be... Hyotei's monster!
When he heard this other name, the corners of Matsuoka Rin's mouth twitched again.
Hyotei's monster? Hyotei's succubus?
What the hell is going on!
Don't let him know who called out!
But...from Yamabuki? ?
Matsuoka Rin's expression became a little strange.
How come Yamabuki has such a strange name spread about him?
Even if this came from Hyotei or Seigaku, he would still find it understandable, but, Yamabuki...?
…
However, Matsuoka Rin's thinking did not last long.
Because, Qingxue is here!
Led by Ryuusaki Sumire, Yamato Yuu and a group of Seigaku's regular players followed behind Ryuusaki Sumire.
Almost at the moment when Qingxue arrived, the atmosphere on the scene fell into an eerie silence.
But soon, many viewers cast unhappy glances at the Qingxue group.
"It's Qingxue, how dare they come here?"
"Tsk tsk, I finally got to the national competition by relying on the momentum of Xiao Lin. Now, I guess I'm going to lose soon, right?"
"I don't want them to lose so soon. At least, they have to meet Hyotei!"
"If Seigaku turns the tide and defeats Hyotei, Seigaku will have to make a comeback."
"Don't overthink it. Now that Rin is not here, how can Qingxue win?"
After a burst of discussion.
Ryuuzaki Sumire's face turned pale. Basically no one was optimistic about her and Qingxue!
This made her a little angry and she wanted to go crazy.
She admitted that the reason why Seigaku was able to enter the national competition was due to Matsuoka Rin's efforts.
Otherwise, with their original strength, they might not be able to advance to the next round.
But this cannot deny her hard work. Before Matsuoka Rin arrived, their Qingxue could advance in the regional competition!
How could you ignore her early efforts?
In this atmosphere, Ryuzaki Sumire's eyes fell on Matsuoka Rin.
"Long time no see, Rin."
She took a deep breath and looked at Matsuoka Rin.
"Long time no see, but Coach Ryuuzaki Sumire, please call me Matsuoka-san."
Matsuoka Rin gave Ryuusaki Sumire a cold look.
“…Yes, Matsuoka-san!”
Ryuzaki Sumire's eyelids twitched. She was not given the slightest bit of face, but she quickly changed her words.
On the side, Atobe Keigo raised his eyebrows slightly. Ryuzaki Sumire really didn't understand the scare at all.
Wanting to get close to Rin when she doesn't want to? That's just dreaming. Even he was not easy to approach Rin when he first came into contact with her.
"I didn't expect to meet you in this kind of situation."
She managed a forced smile.
"Nothing is unexpected. I just hope that Qingxue won't be defeated in advance for some reason before meeting Hyotei..."
"Of course not, we finally made it to the national competition!"
Ryuzaki Sumire's eyelids twitched violently, and she said firmly: "We will not let down all the hard work we put in before!"
Matsuoka Rin smiled with an ambiguous tone, "Then I hope Coach Ryusaki Sumire can hold on until then."
"Don't lose before then!"
"Let's go."
Seeing Matsuoka Rin's back, Ryuzaki Sumire looked grim.
She really didn't expect that this day would come.
but……
"Don't ever meet the Ice Emperor, or it would be too embarrassing!"
Someone in the Qingxue team said, "If Lin goes to the other side, we can't win."
"Shut up! Don't encourage others and destroy your own prestige!"
Ryuzaki Sumire felt inexplicably angry and ashamed.
It seems that without Matsuoka Rin, no one is optimistic about Seigaku?
But their Seigaku produced the only living legend currently - Echizen Nanjiro!
When she thought of Echizen Nanjiro, Ryuzaki Sumire felt more confident.
She believes,
Seigaku once produced a man named Nanjiro Echizen.
It is very likely that another player comparable to Nanjiro Echizen will emerge.
Otherwise, how could they make it to the national competition so smoothly! ?
