Chapter 520: Offers keep on flying!
The soft glow of the moonlight bathed his face in a silvery hue, casting delicate shadows across his features. His eyes, calm and reflective, gazed out into the night as if searching for something beyond the horizon.
The cool breeze whispered through the open window, gently tousling his hair. He seemed to be lost in thought, the tranquility of the night wrapping around him like a comforting embrace.
His posture was relaxed, yet there was a quiet intensity in the way he observed the world outside as if the serenity of the night mirrored the calm before a storm within him.
At that moment, beneath the luminescent glow of the moon, Hiro appeared almost ethereal —a solitary figure deep in contemplation, harmonizing with the stillness of the night. "Finally, we\'re heading home," he muttered as he withdrew his gaze from the night sky. Their international campaign had finally come to an end. During this period, he had experienced a lot. Be it the setbacks he faced against Marquinhos or the acquisition of his newly acquired talent, he had gained a lot from this encounter.
Yet, he couldn\'t help but feel somewhat upset.
Though he had displayed a performance worthy of praise, he couldn\'t help but feel bothered by the recent setback he faced against Marquinhos.
Frowning, as he recalled the events of the day, he sighed, "It seems like I still have much to learn"
For a while, after his performance against Georgia, he had started believing that he was more than ready to compete against the world.
But it seemed like he still had much to learn.
Luckily, he still had more than a year to develop before he could set foot in Europe. So, he could fix his weakness during that period.
However, it wasn\'t the time to think about leaving for Europe. After all, he still had to prove himself in the national team. Also, he couldn\'t neglect the league either.
After returning, he had to devote himself fully to the league.
Even though they were comfortably sitting at the top of the table, who knows what will happen if they lower their guard?
Hiro\'s thoughts ran wild as he sat there pondering about different things.
Then he walked to his phone as he recalled something.
As he switched on his phone, the harsh light coming from the phone made him squinch his eyes for a moment. Since his eyes had been adapted to the darkness, the sudden light from the phone irritated his eyes.
It took a moment for him to adapt to the brightness.
Then as his eyes adapted to the light, he started browsing through his phone.
He had received a fairly good amount of messages.
But as he started skimming through the messages, he couldn\'t help but frown, "Why hasn\'t Ayumi contacted me yet?"
Before leaving for international duty, he had tasked Ayumi to reach out to his parents to check on his father\'s condition. But it had been more than a week already since he left, yet he hadn\'t heard any response from her regarding his parents.
Unable to find any response from her, he couldn\'t help but feel agitated. He hadn\'t asked a lot from her. So, what was the meaning behind this lack of response?
All she had to do was inform him about the well-being of his father.
Was it too much to ask?
Furrowing his brows, he said, "What\'s taking her so long to respond?"
On normal days, she was one of the most efficient and reliable people. But just when he needed her, suddenly she lost all of her flares.
He even thought of reaching her. But refrained from doing so. After all, he was returning home tomorrow. So, was there any need to contact her?
Exhaling deeply, he tried to calm himself.
As he calmed down, he again started skimming through the messages. Seems like he had recently received a message from Eric his agent.
So, it made him slightly curious.
"Congratulations on your performance. You\'ve displayed a performance worthy of your reputation. I do want to speak more about your performance but I\'m not texting you to praise your performance today. Recently, I\'ve got a few offers for you from several European clubs" Hiro\'s eyes perked up as he read. At the same time, his heart started thumping.
Has he finally caught the eye of European scouts?
He couldn\'t help but ponder upon going through the message.
A rush of euphoria washed over him as he thought about it. So, he hurried to read the remaining message.
"At first, I thought to keep it to myself since you still have a season to play. So, I didn\'t want to distract you by bringing the offers. But if I did that, I\'d be keeping you in the dark. So, I\'m going to reveal to you a few of the exciting offers in hopes of motivating you to push further."
What\'s with this unnecessary suspense? Just reveal it already.
As he went through his text, Hiro couldn\'t help but feel annoyed. Eric was talking in circles which was keeping him at bay.
"I know, you are already starting to get annoyed, hahaha..."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Seems like he was intentionally provoking him. Well, Eric often liked teasing him. So, it wasn\'t anything new. However, he couldn\'t help but acknowledge the fact that since his regression he was the only person who was able to annoy him.
"So, I won\'t test your patience any further. But let me clear just one final thing before getting to the main topic. Some of these clubs are the clubs I\'ve reached out to while some have willingly reached out to us first."
Even though he could say all that stuff in one single text, he had sent him several incomplete texts to add to the suspense. Based on his text, it was clear that he had done it deliberately to
annoy him.
And for some reason, it was working as well.
"Real Sociedad, Brighton, RB Salzburg, Eintracht Frankfurt, Celtic, Bologna FC, also for some reason I\'ve received a last-minute inquiry from Manchester United"
