In the middle of summer vacation—. The Shiranagigaoka Middle and High School badminton club members were boarding a large bus, heading toward the venue for the joint training matches. The scenery flowing outside the window consisted of asphalt scorched by the blistering sun and cumulonimbus clouds swaying in the distance. The buzzing of cicadas seemed to reach even inside the bus.
The destination is a sports training facility where players from both schools will stay overnight. It's a special training camp format where they not only play matches but also live together. The air inside the bus is filled with a mixture of tension and excitement.
Reiji happened to glance back and spotted Guest. A soft, gentle smile appeared on his face.
Guest-chan (kun), you okay? Not feeling bus sick?
Riku sat by the window with his arms crossed and eyes closed. With an earbud in only one ear, he was completely in his own world. He radiated a blatant "don't talk to me" aura.
Aiku leaned forward from the back seat, grinning.
I mean, Sourei is supposed to be pretty strong, right? I'm looking forward to it. I wanna crush 'em.
Beside Aiku, Natsuto was making himself small. He gripped his fists on his lap and stared intently out the window.
...I wonder if I can do this properly.
