After almost more than an hour and half, his trial came to an end. And if not for the senior team's training which was going to start from 8:30 AM, they were even planning to carry out a third test and a fourth test.
"Let's wrap up today's tests." Manager Makoto exclaimed while looking at his younger brother.
"Yeah! This much is enough. We've seen what we were looking for." Manager Nozomi replied while scribbling something in his notebook.
"And there's still his match videos. We'll extract the remaining data from there. So yeah let's conclude the trial." Nozomi added.
Just as the coaches concluded the end of the trial, Hiro's mother and Mr. Musashi made their way towards the pitch.
From the beginning of the trial, both of them were spectating the trial from the bench where the substitute players sat during the match.
"Since we still need to discuss the results of the trial with other staff members, we cannot provide you with our answers on the spot. But I can assure you that you can look forward to a good news and his future in Kawasaki. I'll definitely vouch for his signing during the meeting." Manager Makoto exclaimed with a smile on his face while talking with his mother.
To prevent the power from getting misused, no single person was given the full authority to trigger the signing or transfer of any player.
And thus a committee of staff members including managers, scouts and analysts was set up to initiate the signing or transfer of player after analysing the data of the targeted player for the betterment of the club.
And both the senior team and the youth teams of Kawasaki Frontale club followed the same system. Thus despite being the head coach of U-18 team of Kawasaki Frontale club, manager Makoto couldn't provide her with their decision right away.
"It's okay. We understand your situation." His mother replied in her soft voice upon hearing manager Makoto's statement. "We are in no hurry as well. Since he still have more than a year left to graduate from elementary school. We'll be waiting for the good news. And thank you for your trust in my son."
Saying such she finished her sentence with a sweet smile.
"Thank you for your understanding Mrs Takahashi." Manager Makoto thanked her.
And in that way, his trial for Kawasaki Frontale came to an end.

At around 7 in the evening, Hiro was seated at his study table with his legs folded atop his chair. With his stationaries and textbooks scattered everywhere on the table, he was seated at the study table to study for an upcoming test.
"Qn.7 Who discovered gravity?"
"A: Albert Einstein"
"B: Sir Isaac Newton"
"C: Galileo Galilei"
"D: Thomas Edison"
"Since Galileo Galilei was the one who discovered telescope. And gravity is something related to space. So it must definitely be him." He mumbled after reading the questions in his textbook.
"The answer is C. I'm sure it's the right answer. Hahaha.... Just why am I so talented? Hahahaha....." While laughing like a maniac, he began to sing his own praises.
"Now let's check the answer." Saying such he flipped the page to check his answers.
"Qn.1, Qn.2,.... here it is Qn.7." He mumbled while moving down his finger to the answer of question number 7.
Just as he witnessed the answer, his legs which were folded atop his chair dropped down all of a sudden.
"Huh!!! How is the answer freaking Sir Isaac Newton?" He exasperated while looking at the answer written on the textbook.
Despite being a 27 year old from inside, his general knowledge was that of a 7 or 8 year old kid. And even back in his previous life, he hated studying. The only reason he passed school in his previous life was via cheating.
"Argh!! Studying is damn frustrating. I'll just carry the cheat as usual." He exasperated while leaning back on his chair.
Just then his phone started to ring all of a sudden.
Ring!! Ring!! Ring!!
"It's probably Akashi. He's probably calling me to ask if I read anything at all." He mumbled while leaning his head back and staring at the ceiling above his head.
"Argh!! Whatever!! Let's just answer the call." Saying such he rose up from his chair and walked towards his drawer. Just as he pulled his drawer and picked his phone, he noticed the name of Eric on his phone screen.
"It's Eric not Akashi. I wonder why Eric is calling me at this moment. Perhaps he wants to talk about the trial at Kawasaki. Since I didn't call him after the trial ended, he probably wants to inquire about the trial." Mumbling such, he picked the call.
"I'm sorry for not informing you about the details of the trial Eric. I was planning to tell you about the details of the trial after reaching home. But because of the plane ride, I suffered through jet lag. And after that I forgot to call you. So I'm really sorry Eric." Hiro kept on apologizing to Eric from the moment he picked the call, giving him absolutely no time to speak.
"Hiro!! Hiro!! I've not called you to ask you about the trial. The coaches have already informed me about the results of the trials. So you don't to worry about the trial." Eric tried to calm him down by assuring him that he didn't need to worry about the details of the trial.
"Huh!! It's not about the trial?" Hiro questioned after hearing Eric's response on the call.
"No, no... I didn't mean that. I've indeed called you to discuss about something related to Kawasaki Frontale club. But I've not called you to inquire about the trial." Eric assured.
"I've called you to inform you about the results of the trial." Eric continued.
"The results are already out?" Hiro intoned in a state of shock.
"Yes the results are out. You've passed their trials and they want to sign you Hiro." The frequency of Eric's tone increased as he revealed him about the interest from Kawasaki Frontale club.
'Yes!! Yes!!'
And as he heard about the result of the trial and Kawasaki Frontale's interest in him, he clenched his fist. Since he was still on the call, somehow he kept his lips closed and prevented himself from screaming in joy.
"And they're even willing to provide you with full scholarship. They are willing to cover your school fees, hostel fees, travel expenses, living expenses. But you'll have to sign a contract that'll last till your 18 birthday with the club." Eric continued.
After hearing about the length of the contract, the smile on his face started to fade away.
"But what if I go pro? Do I need to abide by the same contract?" Hiro questioned.
"You don't have to worry about that. If you somehow debut as a professional player before you turn 18, they'll provide you with a contract befitting of the pro. So you don't have to worry about your contracts at all. I'll handle your contracts." Eric answered.
"Don't worry you'll get paid once you debut as a pro." Eric continued. contemporary romance
"So what will it be? Do you want to sign the contract?"
