'Hey, I'm bored. How long is this transfer deal going to take?' Harry asked Maria in his head.
"I see that you are still as impatient as ever." Maria criticised Harry.
'What's that got to do with my boredom?' Harry immediately questioned with annoyance.
"Very funny. Haha.. Just so you know, for me, your personality is a great conversation topic. Just take a look at your growing ego these days."
'That is so not true. I don't have an ego.'
"You know, I have a list of your egoistical actions."
'Wait a second there, you have a list?'
"Yeah. I am an A.I. I am organized and stuff."
'That's still rude of you. I don't want to hear it, but right now I am curious and bored.'
"Well, here goes nothing. First, you decided to become the king of football. It was only because you couldn't accept an image of yourself failing to show the Bazz Spirit of your family."
'That's not true... I mean, okay, it is, but this is the right mentality to aim higher.'
"That was my guidance that got you to think correctly."
'Alright, you won this time.'
"Second, you were expecting to win 5-a-side matches in your first month of training because of a system. You lost badly and you couldn't deal with it. I can't believe that you competed against your friends regarding who trains more, just to feel better."
'Hey, in the end, I fell into a habit of training with an aim to break my limits, which is the correct way.'
"Well, you lucked out because your injury got recovered by a potion and you had my guidance."
'Whatever you say...'
"Third, you couldn't accept your failure at the tryouts, and you wish to join those same clubs for big money. I don't think I need to say that you are doing this to make yourself feel better by having the clubs regret their choice."
'Hey, that's a system quest.'
"Well, it was generated after you bragged to Alizey."
'I knew it. You were going to bring her up, one way or another. Do you have something else to add?'
"Actually, I do. How about you getting jealous of Ronaldo, your 2nd favourite player, just because his posters were on the wall of Alizey's room?"
'You are so evil. How can you come up with such a theory? I Love Cristiano Ronaldo.'
"Really? Then why did you want to become a superstar? Oh right, just to be on the poster of that girl's room."
'Hey, you are weirding me out. You sound like a jealous ex-girlfriend. Oh, my God! You, an Artificial Intelligence, is jealous of a real girl.'
"I'm not. I am just fed up of visualising a girl with only a round face, black eyes and black hair."
'Ahahaha, you made my day. I wish I could tell people, "Hey, I'm Harry and I have an A.I. that is jealous of a girl I barely know."'
"Whatever, at least I'm not a person who joins a club to prove a point to his system. Despite that, he lies to people. Hey! I'm joining the club for the fans I have in the city. Or Hey! I'm joining the club to help it in this difficult period, as they have given me excellent training at the academy."
'What point could I prove to the system?'
"That you don't need charity from the system and you can get your own high level contract?"
'Hey, don't make up things.'
"You have forgotten in two years, I live inside your brain. I thought you would remember that I can kind of see through your thoughts."
'Well, yeah. Two years is a long time. On another note, all these instances of my egoistical behaviour you have listed, ended up with positive results. So, my ego is not a problem at all.'
"That is only true when it comes to football. However, you haven't let your grandfather come to meet you because you were playing for an amateur team. If you ask me, that is kind of dumb."
'I was planning to call him this summer, after the season ends.'
"Oh, is that because you wanted to convince him to let you keep on playing as an amateur, for a while longer?."
'You..'
"There is also the fact that you have barely called your friends within these 2 years. You try not to think of it. Nonetheless, you can't accept the fact that they have had more success than you have."
'... I...'
"You haven't tried to become friends with anyone in this city. You didn't bother to learn the N country's language. Do you even know any famous place in this city?"
'This club treated me unjustly. I never thought I would stay here for longer than the graduation period.'
"Yes, they treated you unfairly, but don't blame the country, or the city, or the people who live here for that. You should not become antisocial to protect your pride."
'Oh my God! Right when I thought that I was turning into a better person. I'm actually turning into an egoistical loner.'
"It's good that you realised."
'How should I address this issue?'
"Just give your friends, coaches and grandfather a call after the deal is announced to the media. Don't forget to call them at least once a month."
'Hmm, what about my future teammates at the Peasants? How should I deal with them?'
"You don't need to be chummy with them, but you can't have that unapproachable vibe coming off you."
'Okay. I will do as you say. Umm, I'm getting bored again.'
"Why don't I show you some houses nearby the Peasant's Stadium? You can't live in the dormitory anymore."
'How are you going to do that?'
"I can connect to the internet. Remember? Do you think your friends didn't get more skills and training videos from me only because you and I couldn't talk?"
'Right, how could I not realise that?'
"You are as dumb as ever."
'Ahem, I want to look at the cars first. I cannot be without a car anymore.'
"You don't have a driving license."
'I'm not going to drive myself. I'm thinking of calling grandpa to live with me. I'll get a house and a few cars. I will have grandpa stay with me for a month or two. Plus, I will ask him to send me a small number of maids, one or two chefs, two or three bodyguards and a couple of drivers.'
"Come on, maids and drivers? You need to grow up and be independent."
'In case you forgot, my grandfather has enemies. It's better for me to have personal that he groomed around me. I will be famous soon. We should be careful from early on. Besides, the one paying them will be me anyway.'
''18,000 fans and you are not famous?"
'That's just the people of this country. I might be on the breaking news back in our country after my transfer.'
"I know, I was trying to make a conversation."
