Capítulo 109: Ascend to the Peak (1)

Coach Hanada stared at Ken like he was some sort of freak, which wasn't far from the truth. He had heard that athletes could sometimes improve their performance by taking well-timed rest periods, but a year was too exaggerated.

Of course he was over the moon about securing such a player, however there was one thing that wasn't sitting right with him.

"Ken, why didn't you apply for any prestigious baseball schools? Surely with your talent you could have easily made a team."

Although he was a little hesitant at first, the coach decided to ask the question in order to clear up some doubts. Since they would be together for the next 3 years, he wanted everything out in the open.

Ken saw the hesitation in the coach's eyes, but softly smiled once he was asked. He was happy to know that Coach Hanada was still the forthright and honest coach that he knew in his previous life.

Therefore in order to be transparent, he told the truth.
