9) I'm sure You'll

A whole another hour of practice? Now that's what I'm talking about.

Since it's PE, there can be exceptions made, like the card that allows me to play daily getting reset.

And allowing me to play the entire hour.

That's why I look forward to the PE Class.

The machines right now are set in such a way that you can play an entire hour and wicket cannot stop you.

I don't have to be timid when playing.

I set the field, since nobody was here right now and everyone is probably focused on the Soccer game.

I can do my thing here.

...

"Hey, where are we going right now?"

A red haired women asked

"I wanna see other sports, it's the same old soccer everyday. I wanna see other sports too."

The purple haired one, Milia the princess of the stelling said in a cheerful tone.

"But... Isn't soccer the only sport everyone plays."

"Nahh... I've seen it a couple of times. There's just 1 person playing another game."

"Seriously?"

"Mm... Maybe we shouldn't disturb him, he must be busy right now."

"Who would have thought that guy, who had no ambition until a year ago now wants to become a Sportsman? Don't you find that suspecious?"

"What's suspecious about that?"

"He chose a secluded game area. It isn't even soccer which is popular everywhere but a game which is semi popular. Like cricket. Like imagine watching a game for 5 days only for it it end in a draw? I hated that as a child. But, it was still thrilling in its own way, a team trying to just survive the day off when their bails are getting knocked over one by one. It was a treat to watch."

"You... Seem quite knowledgeable on the game Milia?"

"Well, my father watches it."

"I see, you wanted to see if he was good at what he was doing... It isn't because you are suspecious."

"Well... What's there to even suspect? He isn't really scheming type except for when he's trying to make women like him."

"Well, that makes sense."

"Well, if he really is a schemer than his abilities might come in handy as a captain. Rather than a womanizing jerk."

"Haa... You still holding a grudge over that? Well I don't blame you. That bastard shouldn't have said that."

"What are you guys talking about?"

"Hmm... It's nothing Stella so come on lets see what he's doing."

...

"What the heck is he doing?"

",he's defending."

"Why?"

"Probably practicing defence? I don't know. Ooh look, it's an attacking fieldset. There are 3 slips, a forward short let and a silly point. A spinner bowling,

The settings appear to be A spinner on a dusty pitch. He needs to survive 50 Balls. That's some task. He's played 15 and survived all. But has still 35 more left."

"I don't know what's going on but let's watch the match. Come on, it looks fun."

"Alright, let me see... Aah here."

...

(3 Spectators have entered.)

Huh?

Aah... This pitch is a real challenge. But, I like it.

Having to survive 50 Balls.

I in all honesty haven't survived a single Ball yet.

These Fielders on my face weren't really helping.

And now 3 people entered? What do they want? Is class over?

Nope, doesn't see to appear so...

There's still 40 Mins left.

Well let's continue.

God damn hell... That spun fiercely.

Is this seriously a Leather ball? It's doing a little too much.

The spin, the Bounce, every damn thing seems to be against me.

Even though I'm reading the bowler's Hands, it isn't helping much since I don't know what hand positions spins which way.

I Might be in deep trouble at this rate, with the exam coming up in 10 days.

...

He was doing everything he possibly could to make sure the ball didn't hut those sticks behind him.

which apparently means you are out once they get hit.

There are also players inside the field, almsot very close to Julius.

And, apparently if they catch a fulltoss bowl after it hits the bat.

a direct catch than it's Out.

So, the fielders are put here to make sure that if there's an edge from the bat, they are able to catch it.

Its pretty interesting.

But the one watching with the most interest was Milia.

She was totally Immersed.

With 10 more balls to go, And for some reason Julius has been trying to hit the balls rather than just defend it.

Milia said that he was too afraid to defend so he's Mindlessly slogging in hopes of some connecting.

"He's doing pretty well."

"Hmm?"

"Well, Even though the pitch is at its hardest... His strikes... They are Clean. Don't get me wrong his defense is pretty good too,

But what's really impressed me is his Hand and eye Coordination. The way he's Lookin at the ball with such focus.

He's taking that split milli second more to predict the trejectary and is hitting the ball.

He was hasty before trying to Just defend the ball but now, The strikes are so clean.

They are clearing the boundaries pretty easily."

She went into a monologue. It appears thatvshe likes the sport quite a bit.

Well, she's been someone who loves her father very much so.

"He's playing like a veteran. Those drives, Those Hooks, Those pulls and the unorthodox shots. He has a lot of shots in his arsenal doesn't he?"

"Hmm... That does seem like it from what I've known about cricket. Players usually specialise in 2-3 shots but this person, He seems to Know what shot to hit where and with precision."

"That... That's exactly it. Speciality, He might not be th3 greatest at some shots but he's equally good in most of the shots he's played. Meaning,

he didn't focus on 1 or 2 shots. The trademark and moderately learning the remaining ones. Instead, He's employed the tactic of Knowing each shot equally."

"Is he good or not?"

"Very good. He will easily pass the test with his batting, but than again you need to Specialise in atleast 2 aspects, i wonder what his other Position is? Bowler? wicketkeeper?"

She Licked her lips as she saw him doing something unbelievable.

He scored an odd 30 runs in 10 balls.

hitting 3 Sixes and 2 Fours.

It's crazy considering a four is pretty much a double or even a triple in baseball and a six is practically a Homerun.

He's hit 3 Homeruns and 2 Clean strikes into the field, In baseball terms.

He Really seems talented.

"I Look forward to how you grow Julius."

Milia finished with her eyes fixated on the retreating Julius.

"I'm sure you'll be someone great."
