The locker room at Tsukinomiya Secondary hummed with electric tension, charged by the impending Frontier Football qualifier. While the team warmed up, Ichihoshi slipped inside to grab his uniform.

The unspoken sync between him and Ichihoshi, so potent it even drew Nishikage’s envy, was about to be tested on the real stage. Nosaka looked up, interrupting his pre‑match ritual with a faint, knowing smile and a voice soft with certainty.
