My system allows me to copy talents

Chapter 30: First talent

While the players of Ookami elementary school were cheerfully chanting their victory slogans and celebrating on the pitch, the players of Karasuno elementary school were scattered on the ground with their faces contorted in disappointment.

Most of the spectators in the stand couldn't believe the unexpected turn of events which unfolded before their eyes. The supporters of Karasuno elementary school were still in daze while the supporters of Ookami elementary school were full of laughter.

They were celebrating as if they had already won the tournament.

After a while, the referee gathered both the winning team and losing team for one last handshake. However the players of Karasuno elementary school didn't look one bit happy about shaking hands with the players of Ookami elementary school. More than the pain of losing the match, they were demonstrating emotions of hatred in their face.

Later in that day, Hiro was lying on his bed while scrolling his phone. Due to the live broadcast of several Newtubers, somehow the match had gained even more popularity on the internet. Several articles were published all over social media sites.

As he was scrolling through his Face-book account, several videos of him popped up. Back then when he created his newtube account, he had created a Face-book account to promote his videos. The videos made him curious and he bagan to scroll through his videos.

Since it was still an anonymous account which didn't even consisted a decent profile picture, he hadn't gained any popularity in his Face-book account.

[Soccer Whizard against the mighty Karasuno elementary school]

[Soccer Wizard demonstrates his magic.]

[I can't believe he scored a goal from that distance.]

[Is that kid even a kid?]

[Is it even a kids match?]

[Ace of Karasuno elementary school lashed out at the player of Ookami elementary school]

[Rising tension in the field]

...., and so on.

Several videos with such titles popped up all over his social media account. And almost every video had more than 50k views in it. He began to binge watch every videos related to the match. The overflowing support of the people amused him.

"Damn!! I never thought that a kid's match could gain such a massive response from the people."

Hiro mumbled in awe.

"Right! I still haven't checked my newtube account. Shall we check on it?"

He then logged into his newtube account to check on his account. He hadn't posted a single video after he posted his first video because of his busy schedule.

"Holy shit!! 180k subscriber!! 780k view!! Wtf!! Am I dreaming right now??"

His eyes widened in shock. He couldn't believe the ridiculous amount of subscribers in his newtube channel.

"No wonder those reporters sought after me. Now that we mention about them. Let's check out the video of the interview."

After going through his newtube account, he began to search for the video of his interview.

"I'm sure they called the show 'Neighbourhood Celebrity'."

"Holy shit!! It gained more than a million views already?"

Once again the ridiculous amount of views on the video which he was featured in, shocked him.

He then clicked on the video and began to watch the video. While the video was playing, he couldn't stop himself from smiling. He was constantly smiling while watching the video .

"Damn!! I look so handsome. Hahahaha." He began to praise himself while laughing like a maniac.

"Yeah right!! I still haven't monetised my video. I'll ask dad for his bank details tomorrow and monetise it."

Saying that he turned off his off and put it inside the drawer and headed to sleep.

Even after closing his eyes for more than 5 minutes, he couldn't sleep for some reason. Unable to sleep, he opened his eyes in state of delirium. Something felt amiss.

"Hmmm.... Am I forgetting something?" He wondered.

"Oh yeah that's right! I'm forgetting about the golden ticket." He mumbled.

"System activate."

As he mumbled, the blue panel of the system appeared infront of him. At first page, it showed his description.

He scanned through his attributes but didn't notice any noticeable changes in it.

"At first my attributes increased quite fine. But now I can't seem to improve it." He mumbled in a muffled voice.

The slow increase in his stats started to concern him. Previously his stats were increasing just fine by completing the daily quests. But now even after completing his daily quests consistently, it wasn't increasing as compared to before.

And thus, his stagnant growth started to concern him.

"May be it's because I'm not challenging myself enough. And tbh the daily quests aren't even that challenging these days. But let's worry about that later. For now let's use our golden ticket."

While his stagnant growth concerned him, at the moment he was more interested in his golden ticket. Afterall golden ticket could grant him a random ability of any player. So he was excited to find out the talent he could copy.

[Roulette section]

[You have one golden ticket available.]

[Would you like to use your Golden ticket?]

"Yes"

As he confirmed the use of golden ticket, the roulette wheel began to spin. It spun for a while and landed on a random card.

[Congratulations for the host for obtaining the freekick of Ruberto Carlos.]

[Talent: Freekick of Ruberto Carlos]

[Talent description: Can perform a freekick like Ruberto Carlos and can be used for three times every single day.]

"Holy shit!! Freekick of Ruberto Carlos!!"

Ruberto Carlos was a Brazilian defender who was best known for his speed, shooting power and freekicks. The iconic freekick he scored against France in 1997 was one of the most impressive freekicks humankind had ever witnessed.

It was packed with explosive shot power. While he shot that freekick, the ball went so fast that the keeper of France national team didn't even had a moment to react. Before he could come back to his senses, the ball was already inside the net.

"Damn!! I gotta try it tomorrow against Endo."

"Hahahahaha!!"

He let out an evil grin in his face as he thought of testing his newfound talent against the keeper of Ookami elementary school.

Feeling all excited he went to sleep.

As usual he arrived late for his classes. Thus, while on his way towards his classroom, he couldn't find even a single student outside the hallways.

As he was about to enter his classroom, he found his classroom unusually silent. Just as he opened the door of his classroom, groups of students flocked over him.

"Soccer Wizard!! Hiro!!"

"I watched your match yesterday."

"You played so well."

"You were so amazing."

His classmates rushed towards him while singing his praises. They didn't give him even a moment to breathe. They squeezed him and began to ask ridiculous questions.

Due to his busy schedule, he didn't attend most of the classes after he posted his video. And even the times when he attended classes, the teachers wouldn't let the students do as they wish.

And he had also been skipping the classes due to football training. Thus nobody could have a word with him, even after attending the class.

However today was different, there was no teacher in the classroom. In absence of teacher, the students could talk as much as they wanted.

Thus, the students of his class didn't waste the opportunity and flocked all over him to ask him for his autograph and converse with him.

Without realising, he had turned into Mr.popular of his class.

However he still had trouble with dealing with crowds. Thus, he couldn't answer anything. He started to pray for someone to take him out of that precarious situation and save him.

"All of you get to your seats."

As if the god had answered his prayers, the teacher arrived in the classroom and ordered everyone to be seated.

With the arrival of teacher, everybody scattered and began to run towards their seats, leaving him alone.

"Thank you Sensei"

He took a deep breath and thanked his teacher for taking him out of that precarious situation in a muffled voice.

After taking few classes, the previous situation repeated itself as lunch time arrived. His classmates flocked over him, once again.

Just as he was about to faint, Akashi made his appearance. All of the students began to scatter with his appearance.

Even though he didn't do anything, the students were terrified of his appearance. Thus, nobody dared to make a single noise in presence of Akashi. Once again he was saved.

The classes went smooth afterwards because of the presence of a teacher in the classroom.

Ding!! Dong!!

"Okay students, this much for today."

"Thank you teacher."

The students thanked the teacher in unison. And just as the teacher exited the classroom, he grabbed his bag and stormed towards the pitch before his classmates could flock over him, once again.

As he was tying his laces, he wondered if everyday would be like that. The thoughts of facing that situation everyday sent shiver down his spine and haunted him. He contorted his face while imagining the situation.

"God!! Just save me from those little devils"
