Football System: Classic Number 10
Episode 13: Life at School (Late Part)

On that day, we all had sports lessons. The lesson we got was about the big ball, and for the first meeting we were all going to play a game of football that included one of the big ball games besides basketball and volleyball.

After warming up with a little body stretching, the teacher who taught sports lessons named Mr. Sutrisno divided the team into 2 teams. Because there were only 14 men in my class, the team was divided into 7 people per team without reserve players.

And this time, Derry and I had to be opponents, I was quite disappointed but also excited in the excited moment. I really want to face Derry and prove myself if it has developed enough, Derry is the wall that I have to climb at this time.

"Your game last week was amazing, buddy, but today I don't want to lose either!" Derry said while acting like a kung fu expert that I often watch movies.

I just smiled, but I actually used the god-eye skill I had to see all the statuses of my friends. As I expected before, only Derry has the outstanding status of all of us. I'm not too dizzy about the other players and in my own team there's nothing flashy, everything is the same as me, people who only know football.

For his position we had a check, because there are those who want to be an attacker and do not want to budge, there are those who do not want to be a defender and some who do not want to play if they are goalkeepers. I didn't know what to do, and in the end I just kept quiet and let it all go, until in the end Mr. Sutrisno was the one who determined their position.

I remain in my position in the middle, who wanted to be a striker was even made a goalkeeper by Mr. Sutrisno, he wanted to refute but did not dare when Mr. Sutrisno's half mustache had already started to twitch. When it's like that, usually Mr. Sutrisno will turn into a more ruthless figure, yes more like-similar a little like the German dictator.

"The father who will be the referee, for the determination of kick off will be determined by throwing a coin. Both team captains advance!"

Derry and Wira come forward, yes Wira is the captain of my team, his body is so big that he has to walk along with his big belly. It was the hero who was determined to want to be a forward, and in the end was changed by Mr. Sutrisno as a goalkeeper.

"Derry you pick a tail what's a head?"

"Head sir!" Derry answered clearly and firmly, automatically the Wira only has a tail choice.

Mr. Sutrisno threw the coin up, the coin spun very quickly freely before finally falling into the handbook of Mr. Sutrisno and he immediately closed with his other hand. Slowly, he opened his hands and finally saw the results of the gambling.

What appears is a picture of the head, and the kick off will be started by his team Derry.

Wira back to the back with his face that still seems like he has no intention of playing if not a striker, even though from his statistics it will be a problem if put him playing in the attacking position, he said, but that does not mean playing in the goalkeeper position will save himself as well.

Kick off begins, Derry's team immediately presses at the beginning of the game. Our team's defense was so bad, there was no harmony at all, everything was chaotic like a brutal underground metal music game.

"Hoi-hoi, take care of the right dong! Rizaldi don't be a joke!" A hero behaves like a captain but it's actually a big zero! All the things he shouted were just an unclear order, did he not see me marking on one enemy player?

Because I was not focused due to the actions of the Hero behind, I finally allowed one player to pass me, instead, he immediately gave a good pass to the forward who only needed to give a little effort to make it as a goal, and sure enough.

Team forward Derry only kicked slowly once and can already pass the ball guard Wira, maybe his weight makes Wira so slow enough to anticipate a kick that is also not less slow with the speed of the ball.

"Can you play what? That kind of ball time alone can pass anyway?" The hero was angry with all of us, even though there was something worse than all of us, namely he himself.

We were all just silent, not even a few of us were just laughing at what the Hero said earlier. We can only see that Derry's team are happy to celebrate their first goal and there will be other goals for sure.

The game continued, it was over 20 minutes we played and the score was 4-0 for the advantage of the Derry team. Me and the others were a little frustrated, especially after conceding the fourth goal earlier. Wira expressed his frustration to all of us and some of us already there are who can not stand the behavior of the Hero.

Actually we are not too pressed until we can not do anything, we had made some golden opportunities but you know for yourself how the quality of Derry who was the former goalkeeper of the Buceros team, not cans let alone cans of sardines.

The situation in our team is already very uncontrollable, there must be someone who is able to control everything. I was eager to make a sound, but there were some past burdens that made me a little depressed and always hesitant to voice aspirations.

But I had to do something, I was reminded of the mission prize I had not opened before. I opened the hologram screen that was only accessible to myself, and opened the system inventory box, there was a random skill card that I had not yet opened.

[Do you want to open a Random Skill Card?]

I chose YES! And as before the card seemed to appear clearly in my eyes and suddenly turned into a glare-white light, until at last another card appeared and began to be clearly seen again.

[Welcome you get the Captaincity skill]

[Making you in control of the team is like a captain who is decisive on and off the pitch]

The skill that I really need for now, I just put it on and started voicing my opinion that had been delayed earlier.

"Hey, stop all that! Can't you just move your legs and keep your mouth shut" that's what I said first and all eyes were on me, even Derry's team also looked at me because the sound I made was quite loud.

"Stop all these silly debates, stay focused and get back into position, make space and keep it up!" I added and somehow all the players immediately nodded, no one protested or did not accept me who suddenly became the captain.

Our game continues, all moving with what I ordered before. Now that our team's movement began to be a little more flexible than the previous one, the circulation of the ball also began smoothly. I continued to manage my team's movements from the middle of the field, while continuing to scan and pass to my colleagues.

Until I finally got a golden opportunity, a rebound ball from a header pushed by Derry pointed at me. I remember the moment when I scored the winner of our team's victory during the selection match in Cananga Mining.

I did it once again, a first-time kick that went straight to Derry's goal.

"The danger!" said Derry and he jumped straight towards the ball. With an inch of his finger, Derry could still pull the ball over and make the ball rebound again. Luckily there was a forward of our team and did a very good job at the end, the ball went into Derry's goal and changed the score to be 4-1.

Our team does not do much celebration, because the time of sports lessons is also up. Mr. Sutrisno finished the last words before we entered the classroom for the upcoming lesson.

I saw Derry walking towards me with a big smile on his face. "Hey buddy, this time you're not lucky huh"

"Let's just, the important thing is that the ball came in even though I didn't put it in" I said casually, but there was actually a feeling of annoyance at not being able to get the ball in the last minutes.

"By the way, your game this time is quite improved by Rizaldi. Especially when your team is again plagued by problems like that, if you don't believe ask Salma who had called you your name just ignored"

I was a little confused at first, but when I turned to the side it was true that there was Salma who apparently had patted my shoulder but I did not realize it.

"Rizaldi, you were so cool. Already look like David Guetta maybe?" he said innocently, even though I don't know who David Guetta is and I'm sure it's not the name of a footballer.

I didn't care much about it, what was clear today was just a game of entertainment and I didn't want to burden my mind about it. The system did not provide the usual sudden mission, so this did not harm me but still I was upset because I lost to Derry.

I am now determined not to lose again because the sense of defeat is very painful, even if it is only lost in ordinary matches like now. That's why I will continue to train hard so that my dreams can be realized.
