Chapter 172 Ambipedal
Comfortably lying on his bed, Hiro was skimming through the system while his coaches were discussing about the appointment of new team captain in manager Makoto's office.
"If I could draw some amazing talent like before, I would become unstoppable." Mumbling such with a smile on his face, Hiro mused at the thought of obtaining some rare talents.
And while he was musing on such thoughts, the roulette wheel which was spinning infront of his eyes finally stopped as it landed on a platinum coloured card.
Witnessing the colour of the card, Hiro mistook the colour of the card as silver and assumed that he had drawn something insignificant than the previous talent he had drawn which was "Kevin De Bruyne's Passing Sense", a gold coloured card.
His smile faded away as he witnessed the colour of the card. Thus out of disappointment, he clicked his tongue, "Tch- I have probably drawn something insignificant."
Then again he shrugged as he opened the card without much expectations.
[Congratulations host for obtaining talent Ambipedal]
[Talent: Ambipedal (S)]
[As the name suggests you'll be able to use both of your feet equally well. And to top it off, your both legs will be able to execute the same shooting power as your current strong foot]

Upon seeing the text infront of his eyes, Hiro couldn't help but feel flabbergasted. His eyes open wide and his facial expression similar to that of a person who was high on marijuana, Hiro was utterly shocked by the talent he had drawn that he wasn't even being able to reciprocate his inner feelings.
After few seconds, he rapidly blinked his eyes and vigorously rubbed his eyes to test if he was seeing things. But the text in the screen remained the same, no matter how many times he rubbed his eyes.
"Ambipedal" murmured Hiro in a state of daze.
Although there are few Ambipedal players in the footballing world, not every single Ambipedal players could execute the same shooting power in both their legs.
Even Heung Min Son who's one of the famous two-footed player in the world has more goals from his right foot than from his left foot. Infact despite being bipedal, the shooting power in his left foot lacks comparably to the shooting power in his right foot.
And while Ambipedal players were already rare in football world, the talent Hiro drew also enabled him to shoot with the same power regardless of the foot he used, which was a great advantage. Considering that he could already the shoot the ball at a speed of more than 90 km/hr with his right foot which was already on par with few professional players playing in Europe's top five league.
And although Hiro could still relatively use both of his feet well, he still couldn't shoot the ball with the same power from his left foot as he could with his right foot.
Thus, what amused him the most was the fact that by using that talent he could finally get rid of one of his major weakness.
Finally as Hiro accepted the reality that he had drawn such an amazing talent, his face brightened as his brows and corner of mouth lifted up.
Feeling very excited, he laughed maniacally and suddenly yelled in ecstacy forgetting that the sky outside of his room had turned pitch black, "Hahahaha..... Now I'm freaking unstoppable. No one can stop me now. Hahaha...."
In a state of excitement, he completely went crazy for a while. And if anybody happened to be in his room at that moment, they would have probably assumed that Hiro was either mad or got possessed by spirits. In the worst case scenario, they would have phoned mental hospital.
Hiro's excited roars which reverberated all over the hostel building, scared few of the players.
"Yikes!!! Has Hiro gone crazy?"
Few players who were staying in the room next to his spoke out of trepidation.
"Who's laughing and yelling like this at this moment of time?" Questioned Tatsuki as he paused his evening stretches.
Shun who was already asleep and was sleeping like he had sold all his worries, didn't even react.

They were pissed.
"Which idiot is yelling at this time?" Flaring his nostrils, coach Kensuke mumbled furiously as he heard the maniacal laughter which was reverberating all over the hostel building.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUpon realising that he was yelling crazily and it was still dark outside, Hiro immediately shut his mouth out of fear and embarrassment.
'What was I thinking? It's late in the night.' Thought Hiro while covering his mouth with his hands.
But again, he cheered up at the thought that he had drawn such an amazing talent. And as he cheered up, he laughed meekly.
He then immediately activated the talent he had drawn at that moment.
And just as he activated his talent, he felt a wriggling sensation in his legs. As if something was happening inside his legs, he felt like small insects were running inside his leg. Especially his left leg, it felt really hot for some moment. Although it didn't hurt him, he still felt quite weird.
"What's happening? What's this unusual sensation?" Confusedly asked Hiro to himself as he touched his legs.
Finally after a while, the sensation faded away as his leg muscle stopped wriggling further.
He then began to lightly stretch his legs fearing the lingering consequences which he might suffer. But as he began to stretch his legs lightly, nothing happened.
There were no abnormal sensation or pain in his leg. Infact his legs felt a lot lighter than usual. As if he had just taken of about 5kg weight from his legs, he felt a lot lighter.
Hiro then carefully stepped out of his bed to turn on the lights.
Click!!
And just as he turned the lights on, the whole room got illuminated as the darkness faded away. Hiro then began to examine his legs.
His leg muscles were a lot more well defined as compared to before. Especially the calf muscles and thigh muscles, they were a lot more well defined than last time.
