I Became a Supporting Character in an NTR Manga chapter 28

28 – Fan – 2

After arriving at the training ground, we decided to unpack at the dorm and gather for afternoon training. At Suda’s order, I carried his luggage to the lodging, and even ran errands he ordered, so I was a little late getting together.

When we arrived at the training ground, the members were already gathered. It was in the midst of discipline after Suda ordered them to gather. They kept yelling at me, saying that I didn’t come here to play, and saying that if I went to training with a lax mind, I wouldn’t let them go.

Of course, it wasn’t something I couldn’t say as a coach, but I couldn’t help but lose confidence when it came out of his mouth. In other words, he was not a coach who participated properly in training even at school. 3Rd or 2nd year students were responsible for the practice, and Suda would come out every once in a while, shouting threats like now, ordering nonsensical drills.

It was a kind of activity to show that I was working as a coach. Today’s field training as well.

The training was rigorous under the guidance of Suda. On the first day, the schedule was set to the extent of lightly relaxing, but it was because Suda didn’t like it.

Perhaps, the fact that he had arranged all of this without me made me feel sick to my stomach. Prior to that, Suda hadn’t even participated in all the courses necessary to prepare for field training.

On the day of training, only the body came out.

There were no immediate complaints about such an incompetent teacher from the members.

Actually, I knew the incident would happen on the first day.

“Ah~?! Are you rebelling now!?”

“It is not rebellion. It’s just an opinion that there’s something wrong with this way of training.”

As expected, it can’t be avoided.

The training camp and the fight between Takase and Suda there were also fixed stories.

“As a member, listen carefully to what I tell you! I am the coach!”

“You will ruin your body before the competition if you use it this way.”

The members are restless and watch their eyes.

Suda screamed, but Takase didn’t back down either.

“I can’t follow unreasonable instructions. Suda.”

As the conflict between Takase and Suda intensifies, the gap in the upcoming bad ending also widens. It would be a shock to see Takase collapse, who cares for his members and does not give in to unreasonable instructions.

Though this and that happened, does this world eventually follow the established flow?

She scratched her cheek.

“If you’re so proud of yourself, you must be confident in winning the tournament, right, Takase?”

“……… Of course.”

At Suda’s threat, Takase silently nodded his head without a change in expression. Seemingly resentful of that appearance, Suda crossed his arms and looked at his teammates with disapproval.

“The vice-captain is absent on the day, and the captain is a brat who fights against the coach….”

“……… There was a reason Sayoko couldn’t come out.”

“Ha? What is it? Is it greater than the training you guys valued so much?”

“……… ….”

“You said you ate too much. Sayoko That year.”

Oh, that’s dangerous.

Takase’s eyes changed.

When she took a step closer to her and tried to grab Suda by the collar….

“Coach, coach!”

I got in between them.

The surprised look in her eyes widens.

“I… I had a little problem… I think you should go.”

“What? What’s the problem?”

You said that if I hadn’t stopped you, Takase would have grabbed you by the collar and pulled you up.

Not exactly in the middle of her for Suda, though. I whispered in his ear as he glared at me without even knowing how to thank me.

“…… Ha?! Another lodging?”

“Yes. Fifteen minutes from here.”

“Why is this happening! Someone made a reservation!”

Suda’s room was mistakenly booked elsewhere. Thanks to him, he told me that his luggage was lying outside.

“What is that! sh*t!”

Suda stamped his feet and got angry, but soon he left the training ground as if he had no choice.

I followed him and glanced back at the members.

Playfully waved his hand at Takase and his team members who were looking blankly at him.

I meant to stop worrying about this guy and focus on training.

Some members were whispering, as if they hadn’t understood the meaning yet, and Takase was staring at me.

***

Excluding Suda, I was the only male in the track and field team. Naturally, my room became a private room. Suda’s accommodation was taken far away from here, and he hurriedly packed his things and moved there.

Of course, I was the one who made the reservation.

In other words, it was done on purpose.

As a result, the conflict between Suda and Takase was somehow prevented.

If you keep this distance, Suda’s personality is such that he won’t even try to diligently participate in training.

– I just went to bed. After training, eat. –

– It must have been difficult…. Are you alone now? –

– Yes. Is it okay to be with someone? –

– Ahahahaha… That’s right. –

I was in the middle of texting with Haruna and reporting on today’s situation.

As we talked, Suda and Takase talked about a story that raised their voices today.

– Really? So how did it go? –

– Suda huffed and packed his things and left in a taxi –

– Unnie must have had a hard time too. I am a person who always works hard. –

Although they call each other older sister or younger brother, Haruna and Eri Takase aren’t particularly sisters.

Including Yuuki, they were close neighbors when they were young. Although Takasega has moved and moved where he lives. Even so, they still maintained a close relationship like family.

– Right. Even after practice is over, I always stay alone and run. –

– hahahaha… You’re like a sister –

I was flirting while looking at my cell phone, then got up.

I go to the window and draw the curtains just in case.

From the location of my room, I could see the nearby outdoor training ground.

– I’ve always been that kind of person. Run as hard as you can. So I always just look from behind. –

– Looking from behind? –

– It means that she was a great older sister whom I longed for and wanted to become. –

In the dark, I could see the silhouette of a person running on the training ground.

That was Eri Takase without fail.

On her first day, the girl who challenged Suda for ordering excessive training.

I am training alone at this time.

– That’s why I always want to be a great person like you… When I was young, I often thought about it. –

– You really like it. Senior Takase. –

– Yes. –

No… Anyway it is

Please do it in moderation… Senior.

I left the room with a sigh.

I came down to the training ground, touching the shoulders of my jacket in the cold wind.

I saw a senior running from a distance.

I sat on her bench and watched her.

The senior, who had been running for a while, came to a standstill.

I crouched down on her seat and rubbed her left ankle, watching her moaning.

There’s no point in sending Suda away like this.

When she got her body up, she took a deep breath and got back into position to run… As if noticing her gaze, he turned his head and looked this way.

She smiled and waved her hand.

Her shadow came slowly and stood in front of me.

“……… Manager group. What happened?”

“Seniors are. What are you doing alone at a time like this?”

“Because my body is itching.”

The senior’s left ankle.

I didn’t bother talking about it.

Senpai never showed any difficulties or distress. She was always silent, sweating and moving her body with a nonchalant expression.

She never showed weakness to anyone.

That means she wants to hide it.

It won’t give a good impression to seniors if you dare to point out and interfere.

“……… Whoa.”

Exhaling her breath, the senior sat down next to me.

“……… Thank you for the afternoon manager.”

“What is it?”

“Are you pretending not to know?”

“No, I really don’t know.”

“She couldn’t control her emotions and prevented me from rushing at him.”

She shook her head.

“No, I really made a mistake with my accommodation reservation. That’s when I got a text message.”

“Your mistakes only happen at truly coincidental timing.”

“……… ….”

It doesn’t seem to be perfect.

As we were silently and awkwardly evasive, Takase-senpai smiled and said,

“The members also liked it.”

“hahahaha… Glad you liked it….”

It’s windy.

She glanced at her in her thin gym suit.

“…… Aren’t you cold?”

“I moved her body and it got a little hot. It’s just the right temperature.”

I wanted to take off her outerwear, but.

Then I gave up.

After that conversation, there was an awkward silence.

While looking at her playground, senior hesitantly asked.

“By the way… manager.”

“Yes.”

“This morning… Are you serious about what you said on the bus?”

From noble mtl dot com

A fan?

That’s… It was an impromptu response.

I like Takase Eri, but I’ve never been a fan of hers.

In fact, I know that her fan club is active in the shadows. Not only did I not join, I have no interest in such activities.

That was just a response at the moment, but if you think about the meaning of a fan.

“Yes. I mean it.”

In a comprehensive sense, that’s right. I like her and support her. It’s just that she can’t be called a fan of hers at all.

“……… That, then… Since when have you been a fan of mine?”

“Since when… yo. This?”

“Yes. Wouldn’t there be a point where you got to know me?”

I thought about it for a while.

However, I decided to go normal here.

“Takase Eri of 100-person slash.”

“………… Keugh.”

“Yes, since then.”

Biting her lip, she lowered her head.

It was a story I heard from a member of the track and field department. It was unbelievable that when she was in her middle school, she wiped out 100 gangs of bullies in her neighborhood.

It is said that the legend of “Takase Eri of 100 Man Slash” Was given to the fact that at that time she was proud of her majestic dignity like that of a certain famous samurai.

“…… Is that real?”

“How could that be! No matter how strong a person is, there’s no way you can deal with 100 people!”

“That’s right….”

Then what was the story I heard from the members?

The legend made Eri Takase famous, and it is said that her followers were born.

I heard it, but I couldn’t easily believe it.

Watching her subdue her soccer team members as easily as stepping on her ants, she wondered if… I even thought of doing it.

“That’s a wildly inflated story. Not 100 people….”

“Ah… Is this an incident that actually happened?”

Takase-senpai flinched and shook her head.

“This… Stop talking about this.”

“………… “

If you’re that shy.

The senior got up from her seat and took a deep breath.

She seemed to have something to say, but she continued to hesitate.

“That was what I wanted to ask.”

“…… Are you a fan?”

“Yes. If you are really my fan… I will have to show you a better side of me.”

“……… ….”

Looking back at me, the senior said.

“I will definitely win a medal in the upcoming competition.”

She swallowed her breath. That….

“So I want you to watch it from the side as well.”

If the story goes the way I know it, Eri Takase….

“This is Sakuraba Gakuen’s athletics club… As a manager.”

I looked at her as she shyly scratched her cheek and conveyed it to me.
