Chapter 573: Astronomical Prices



Golden rays of the setting sun crept through the window and fell on Hiro's face as he sat cross-legged in a meditative position with his eyes closed.

With a bed, a wardrobe, a table, and a trophy cabinet, there wasn't much furniture in the room and most of the room remained mostly vacant.

The room was dimly lit in golden hue and it was mostly quiet.

The only sound that could be heard was the sound of Hiro's breathing. Taking a final deep breath, Hiro slowly opened his eyes.

Unbothered by the light falling on his face, he gazed at the window.

He felt clearer than ever and he felt rejuvenated now that he had completed his meditation. After letting the feeling of tranquility sink in, he stood and walked to the bed.

Then he grabbed his phone and contacted Eric. The phone buzzed while he patiently awaited Eric's response.

"Hello, Hiro," Eric answered.

Without even sparing time to greet him, Hiro dived straight into the topic he wanted to converse about, "Eric, I've made my decision."

Eric who at that time was about to head to bed felt intrigued by his enthusiasm. He could tell that he had made up his mind. However, the decision he had made remained a mystery to him. Even so, he was delighted to hear the news.

It had been more than a week since he last talked to him about the matter.

"Yeah, I've been waiting," he said with a smirk.

Hiro's eyes lit with resolution as he said, "Let's take the risk."

Eric's heart thumped and his eyes glistened with excitement as he heard Hiro's response. It was the answer he had been awaiting.

"You've made the correct decision. I won't let you down, Hiro," Eric said in a firm tone full of confidence. "Leave the rest to me and wait for the good news. You're gonna make history."

Hiro nodded, "Then I'll be waiting for the news."

With that two ended the call. Hiro had made his decision clear. So, now he could only put his faith in Eric. Eric, after hanging up the call couldn't bring himself to sleep out of excitement.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"You've made the right decision, Hiro. I won't let you down," he mumbled to himself.

Then he immediately started to prepare right away.

As for Hiro, he threw himself on the bed. Then he willed the activation of the system, "System Activate."

The blue panel floated before his eyes, showcasing his attributes.

[Host: Takahashi Hiro]

[Age: 16 years 361 days]

[Position: Attacking midfielder/Winger/Forward]

[Club: Kawasaki Frontale]

[System Shop: Open]

[Overall: 86]

[Possessed Talents: Tactical Awareness (S), Clinical Finishing (S), Knight in the Area (S) Bipedal (S), Equilibrium (S)]

[Possessed Skills: Focus, Lightning Steps, Magic Vision, Fireball Shot,.....]

Attribute points: 1340

Due to the recent injury, he had dropped a few points. If it wasn't for the injury halting his progress he would have a lot better stat.

Even so, his stats were ridiculous nonetheless.

With the few boosts he'd receive from the talents, he could even perform at a higher level than the stat displayed on the screen.

For a little while, Hiro frowned looking at the screen. Even though he had recovered from the injury, he couldn't help but feel sad about the stagnant growth resulting from the injury.

Although the scar from the injury was unperishable, he couldn't bother about the time that had already passed.

So, he tried to cheer himself, "It's only a minor setback."

"Now, let's put these points to use."

Then he skimmed to the system shop. This time his objective was to use the points he had gathered. Due to the penalty from the last quest, he hadn't been able to use the feature of the system shop.

But now that the penalty had been lifted, he couldn't wait any longer.

Just as he opened the system shop, three items with varying prices were displayed on the screen.

[Bone Strengthening Pill]

[Potion of Recovery]

[Phantom Boots]

The items were each miraculous yet still failed to impress him mainly because he didn't have any need for the two items. Potion of Recovery could have been useful when he was injured. But now that he had been healed, it wasn't of any use to him.

As for the Phantom boots that gave a whopping 10% boost in his agility couldn't be worn by

him since he had already signed a deal with Mizuno.

So, the bone-strengthening pill was the only useful item.

Hiro wanted to refresh the shop but the cost made him hesitant.

Frowning, he muttered, "What's with my rotten luck? How could I draw such bad results? Is

heaven really disowning me?"

He threw his arm as he complained.

"Might as well go with the bone-strengthening pill," he muttered, resigning to his fate.

The Bone Strengthening Pill costs 10 points. Compared to the Potion of Recovery which cost 300 points and Phantom Boots which cost 500 points, it was much cheaper. However, once he opened the tab, his eyes widened in disbelief, "WTF? 10 points each? And to have full effect you need to buy 206 of them? Are you kidding with me?"

Seeing the actual cost required to equip the pill, Hiro couldn't help but exasperate.

"I know that it helps strengthen my bones and ultimately helps in the prevention of injuries. But still, isn't it too much? It's fricking daylight robbery. Even after spending the points that I have gathered until now, I can barely afford to strengthen half of my bones."

The cost of the item left him gasping for his breath.

Hiro felt his scalp turn numb upon calculating the actual cost, "10 for each bone then we have 206 bones. That'd make 2060 points and once I buy it that slot will be jammed until I purchase

all."

"Should I just give up?" After going through the cost of purchasing, Hiro even thought of

giving up on the item.

Then he pondered before adding, "Or should I invest in my future?"

He wanted immediate results. But investing in that item was a long-term investment.
