Chapter 107: Let the Tennis Match Begin

"Is your hand okay?"

Rinne asked worriedly, ignoring the question just now.

"Don't worry, it's fine."

Shido said comfortingly. Just like what he said just now, a mere tennis ball couldn't hurt him at all.

"Yeah, Shido-kun's hand is harder than iron!"

Yoshinon suddenly exclaimed, waving its paws.

"Hehe, how cute~"

Rinne giggled, not surprised by the talking puppet at all.

"Hey, have I seen you somewhere in our school?"

Shido couldn't help but ask. Usually, people would be surprised by Yoshinon's behaviors, but this girl was totally different.

"I feel like I have seen you before, and you feel the same." Rinne put a finger on her pink lips, smiling. "Is this a feeling of Déjà vu?"

"I wonder…"

Shido gave a wry smile, clearly not getting any answer at all. When he was about to ask more questions, someone interrupted them…

"Who are you? It's a little unruly to intervene in a tennis match like that."

The tall girl said in a dissatisfied tone. What upsetted her more was that these people ignored her and flirted with each other in front of her.

"What do you mean? This girl has already lost just now, and you still hit her with a serve. What kind of rule is that?"

Shido sneered and retorted.

"This...is my rule!"

The tall girl said weakly.

"Then it's my rule to save her."

Shido said confidently. Talk no jutsu? He was an expert at this! Think about it, he managed to convince more than 10 Spirits to be sealed by him.

"You... So you're going to play the next game? Against a girl like me? Not that I mind!"

The tall girl said contemptuously. In general, tennis matches were divided into male and female competitions; after all, boys and girls were inherently different in terms of physical fitness and strength. Boys would have a major advantage in this regard, so if Shido played against her, it would be like bullying girls.

But even so, the tall girl still seemed to be very confident. Although she didn't even see the movement of Shido saving that weak girl just now, she just pretended that she didn't notice. She thought Shido should only have the skills of an amateur, but she was the Varsity player of her school team. Naturally, she would have an noticeable advantage.

"This..."

Shido was a little hesitant. Putting aside the matter of potentially bullying a girl, it was really too much for him to play tennis with others when he was full of reiryoku powers.

"Are you scared?"

The tall girl sneered.

"Let me handle it!"

The person who spoke was Yotsuba. Although she knew that Shido was good at sports, she didn't know the exact extent. She was worried that he might lose to the opponent, and was then labeled as a weakling who could not even defeat a girl.

Naturally, she didn't want to see the boy she liked being targeted, so she stood up immediately. She was a girl, so it would be a fair game.

"Yotsuba..."

Rinne ran over a little worried. The two of them knew each other, so naturally she would care about her.

"It's alright, don't worry."

Yotsuba smiled softly.

"Be careful..."

Rinne reminded her; after all, this tall girl was really powerful, and her tricks were very insidious...

"Um."

Yotsuba nodded, and she noticed that Rinne was blushing a little bit approaching Shido, and sighed helplessly. It seemed that another girl had fallen for Shido's charm.

In fact, the scene where Shido rescued Rinne just now reminded Yotsuba of what happened at the soccer field last year. At that time, Shido also rescued a girl in the same way, and the way he did it was so gentle. But now, it seemed to be more gentle, and such people were indeed attractive to girls.

Seeing Yotsuba coming to the field, the tall girl frowned. She had heard about how athletically inclined Yotsuba Nakano was, knowing that she would make a very tough opponent.

"Yotsuba Nakano!"

The tall girl gritted her teeth and said.

"You know me?"

Yotsuba looked at her curiously, she did not know the other party at all.

"Certainly!"

The tall girl nodded nervously. In fact, she was constantly hearing rumors about a certain talented girl named Yotsuba in Raizen High School, who had excellent athletic ability and could play any sport with ease.

More importantly, Yotsuba was very cute and had a very good figure. In terms of sports girls, such a person beat her in every aspect.

"Then let's get started!"

Yotsuba didn't want to waste too much time talking. Although she was kind, she would still be very angry when she saw the other side bullying her friend just now. Also, she loved playing sports very much. Seeing someone using sports to hurt others, she couldn't stand it no matter what.

Of course, what was more important was that what the tall girl said to Shido just now made her want to teach her a lesson, so Yotsuba decided to go all out from the very beginning!

With a coin toss, Yotsuba won the right to serve first, while the opponent got the right to pick a side of the court. Of course, picking the court didn't really matter. It was the serve that counted.

Yotsuba got three fresh new tennis balls for the match, put two in her pocket, and held the remaining one in her left hand. It would be important to keep additional tennis balls in the pocket during serve; after all, if you missed the first serve, you could get the second ball ready in no time.

In fact, Yotsuba only played tennis a few times, and earlier, she didn't know the necessity to keep handy tennis balls. She used to just grab one and serve, then run all the way to the corner and pick up another one.

But now, she had learned her lesson, so she seemed more professional than before.

When she threw the tennis ball up, she jumped lightly, and hit the tennis ball toward the opponent's court like an arrow. The tall girl hadn't reacted yet, and the ball had already flown behind her. Sure enough, there was a certain gap in strengths between the two players.

"Service Point, 15-0."

A boy who seemed to be the referee shouted loudly. The boy had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but for some reason, Shido's intuition told him that this boy was not a good person.

And because of absorbing the reiryoku power of many Spirits, Shido's intuition was often very accurate!
