Inazuma Eleven Orion: Mischievous Winter Angel

二 {02}

"Good morning!!" The coach greeted. "Allow me to introduce you to a special guest today."

"This is the captain of Spain's team, Mr. Clario Orvan!"

Beside him was a huge bulky guy who's face was oval-shaped and his chocolate brown hair was spiked up in the middle. His face showed a grimace, his sclera was black while his pupils were blue.

"Nice to meet you." The male nodded gruffly.

"Clario Orvan!" Yuuto Kidou exclaimed in shock.

"A world player!"

"Our wish has been granted."

"But what is he doing here?"

Zhao Jinyun clapped to earn all the players' attention. "Minna-san, I'd like you all to have a little contest with Mr. Clario."

This surprised everyone.

"Oh?" Reina hummed, an amused smile on her face as she gripped the handle of her walking stick tightly.

Clario's gaze slowly went to the silver haired girl. His eyes narrowed at her form but he didn't speak a word.

"A contest?" Kidou asked.

"Now?" Asuto continued.

"Wait, Coach. There's nineteen of us here." Mansaku explained.

"I don't mind." Clario spoke.

Reina chuckled. "You haven't changed a bit, Clario-kun."

Clario smiled. "I can't wait to face you again, Princess Ana--"

This made Reina visibly frown. "Please refrain from calling me that, Clario."

The male flinched. "My apologies, Princess Reina."

"Wait. Reina-senpai, do you know Clario-san?" Asuto asked.

Reina's attention went towards the direction of Asuto's voice. "When I was still in England, my team would have a few matches against him and his teammates. We go way back." She smirked.

Clario nodded. "When I heard that you left England to join Japan's team, I wanted to face you immediately. Show me how much you've improved since the last time we've played against each other."

"Coach Zhao Jinyun, if I may make a request. I wish to have a one-on-one with Princess Reina." Clario told the coach.

Zhao Jinyun laughed. "Well, Reina-chan?"

"I'm ready any time." Reina smiled.

With that, Clario walked to the locker room to change into his uniform.

Reina walked to the middle of the field. Kobun then ran towards her, taking her walking stick from her.

"Why did Clario call Reina-san, 'Princess?'" Endou asked.

"I guess there are some things that only the two of them know." Kidou replied, crossing his arms. He stared at Reina's form through his dark-tinted goggles.

"I still don't believe that the blind girl can play." Hiroto huffed.

"With her condition? No way." Haizaki agreed to the God Striker.

"Lack of eyesight had never chained Princess Reina down. Don't judge her when you don't know anything."

"Huh?"

Everyone turned aroumd in surprise to see Clario standing behind them wearing his uniform. "You don't know the full story behind Princess Reina's blindness."
