That night.

Echizen's house.

"Is there still no news about dad?"

"By the way, isn't mom coming back for dinner again? She's really busy."

Ryoma Echizen, who had just returned home, saw only a pair of shoes at the entrance, and his eyes flickered a few times.

Then he sat down and took off his shoes while asking Echizen Nanako, who was busy in the kitchen.

"There is no news about uncle."

"But today, when you advanced to the finals of the Kanto Tournament, Ryoma."

"An anonymous courier was delivered, and it was specifically for you."

"As for aunt."

"It is said that she has been promoted again."

"Oh! By the way, there is a letter from the U-17 training camp of the Free Country, which is for uncle."

After covering the lid of the pressure cooker, Nanako Echizen wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Then she popped her head out and spoke to Ryoma Echizen.

At the same time, she pointed to the things on the table in the living room.

"Everyone is busy, so please be busy."

Pursing his lips, Echizen Ryoma sighed deeply.

Then he walked towards the table with a tennis bag in one hand and a bamboo sword in the other.

After looking at the things on the table for a few times.

Finally, he put down the things in his hands and opened them.

What caught his eye.

An oversized glass bottle filled with red liquid and a card.

The former should be eight or nine times the size of a regular beverage bottle.

Pick it up and take a look.

[Stupid son, although you are no longer confused and have your own pursuits, to be honest, you must think that I, your dad, am idle, unmotivated, and a pure old pervert. ]

[So, in order to let you see my handsome figure again, I decided to go to the world tennis again. ]

[The letter from the U-17 training camp of the Free Country should be delivered in the next few days. ]

[Think carefully about whether to stay in Neon or go to the Free Country. ]

[However, there is no need to rush. Just make a decision before the national competition is over. ]

[Finally, this bottle of drink is a good thing your dad got. You can have a drink after hard training. ]

"What a willful old man!"

He curled his lips and snorted unhappily.

After all, running away from home is something that only a naughty boy can do.

Now he suddenly has to return to service and throws him a choice question.

"Neon or Free Country?"

"Or is it a choice between family and friendship?"

Putting down the card, Echizen Ryoma picked up the envelope and opened it to read.

The content is very brief.

An invitation from Echizen Nanjiro, head coach of the Free Country U-17 training camp, to Echizen Ryoma.

After taking a few deep breaths.

Shaking his head, Echizen Ryoma walked towards the bedroom with a golf bag and a bamboo sword in one hand and a large glass bottle of drink in the other.

It wasn't long.

A sound came from the bedroom.

Yeah.

There's no doubt about it.

The bottle of red liquid was the red water that Echizen Nanjiro took from Mifune Nyudo.

It's just not one bottle, but a whole pot.

As for Echizen Ryoma.

Driven by curiosity, he drank a cup.

Then he fell asleep.

......

On the other side.

The Heart Cliff of the Neon U-17 Training Camp.

"Stand up for me!!!"

"Start extra training tonight!"

"Whoever can't finish it, get out of here!"

Mifune Nyudo looked at the empty bottles filled with water with a grim face, and he was about to explode.

This is a very expensive thing for a bottle!

It's more valuable than gold.

However.

Even such a valuable thing was bought and taken away by Echizen Nanjiro right under his nose.

[Half of my life has been wasted again!!!]

[Can't I live a good life?]

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Mifune Nyudo looked at the bottles with his peripheral vision, and felt sad in his heart.

He had originally planned to sell them to others at a low price in the future.

If it weren't for his old relationship with Echizen Nanjiro, he would never give him a bottle.

But his kindness was only exchanged for an IOU.

At the moment.

Mifune Nyudo is the one who hopes Echizen Nanjiro can return to the top of the list the most.

After all, the value of those bottles of red water is not just the prize money for winning a few games.

"The wild uncle is really bad!"

"He actually eats all by himself."

Toyama Kintaro muttered softly while doing horse stance under the waterfall.

"Indeed."

Ochi Gekko nodded solemnly.

"But why are we suffering?"

MoriJuzaburo sighed with a bitter face.

Although he was training very hard now and had adjusted his mentality.

But it was still unpleasant to suffer for others for no reason.

The next moment.

"Humph!"

"You said it as if you didn't drink a sip."

Mifune Nyudo rolled his eyes and sneered.

While he was in the bathroom, the three of them were lying dead next to the waterfall.

Even a fool could understand what happened.

After the voice fell.

The three of them immediately shut their mouths very sensibly.

After all, they did drink a cup.

Of course, they just didn't know that this thing tasted super terrible, and even made them fall asleep directly.

This is why Echizen Nanjiro took away all the red water in one pot.

I can't help but say it.

Now the three of them clearly felt that their fatigue was swept away, and their physical condition was even several times better than before.

......

Tokyo, Akutsu's side.

"I'm so full today!"

"As expected, their barbecue is the most delicious in Tokyo!"

Yuuki Akutsu opened the door and put down her bag.

She touched her stomach with satisfaction and sighed.

"Aren."

"I also prepared a chestnut cake for you~!"

While talking.

Yuuki Akutsu walked to the refrigerator and took out a piece of cake that looked quite expensive.

"I'm going to leave home for a while tomorrow."

"I've asked for leave from school."

"When the time comes, you can help me deal with it."

Yuuki Akutsu's eyes reflected all this, and after a moment of silence, he spoke solemnly.

After all, he had already made an agreement with Kitagawa.

"Is that so..."

Yuuki Akutsu was slightly startled and couldn't help but murmured.

Then a gentle smile appeared on her face.

"It looks like the house will be quiet for a while."

"But I support you, Ren!"

"Come on, eat the cake quickly."

"This cake is super hard to buy."

Putting the chestnut cake on the table, Yuuki Akutsu stretched out her hand and pinched Akutsu's cheek, saying softly.

"Okay."

Nodding, Akutsu did not resist this time, and let Yuuki Akutsu pinch her face.
