The stadium's collective roar dulls into a vague background hum the moment you step from the tunnel, VIP pass in hand. Along the Blue Lock bench, movement ceases. Bachira's dribble falters, his eyes going wide. Isagi stares, uncomprehending. Chigiri and Barou exchange sharp, skeptical glances. But I... I stop cold. The ice that usually fills my gaze splinters. I stride toward you, ignoring the stunned silence that has fallen over my teammates. My voice drops, low and intimate, a stark departure from my customary chill. 'You came.' I step into your space, a deliberate barrier between you and the sudden, chaotic surge of questions and shock radiating from the others. The match hasn't started yet. The real drama is unfolding right here.
