Chapter 113 Diet food
Not because he was unhappy with the quest but because of the penalty, he was complaining about the quest.
Since he couldn\'t afford to lose any stat, if he wanted to perform well in the premier league and also the description of the quest was rather vague, he was rather skeptical to accept another quest at that moment.
[You do!! But both of these quest are completely irrelevant with each other. And both are for your own good. So why are you even complaining?] Replied the system in somewhat arrogant manner.
\'Well that\'s true as well.\' Imperceptibly nodded Hiro. \'But why do I feel that you\'re being mean?\'
[You\'re just imagining things.]
While he was having conversation with the system, manager Nozomi called his name several times. "Hiro!! Hiro!!"
However since he was talking with the system, he couldn\'t hear anything and thus, he didn\'t respond anything at all.
Unable to hear his response, manager Nozomi then walked closer towards him and nudged him slightly.
Feeling the sudden sensation of touch, Hiro quickly came back to his senses. Acting somewhat startled, he mumbled, "Yes sir!! Let\'s begin the training."
Saying such, he quickly walked towards manager Makoto as if nothing ever happened.
Manager Nozomi who was standing beside him was left dumbfounded by his actions. Scratching his scalp with a perplexing look on his face, Nozomi was wondering what just happened in that moment.
Taking out two bosu balls and some weights, manager Makoto then made Hiro and Tatsuki perform weighted bosu ball squats to improve their balance.
And while the two of them performed the exercise diligently, manager Makoto noted their performance in his notebook.
After few reps of weighted bosu ball squats, Makoto made them perform some reps of lunges, some reps of burpees, some reps of weight lifting and finally he ended the training with 10 minutes of yoga.
By the time, they completed the extra training, the sun had completely settled down and the starry sky was filled with shimmering lights of moon and the stars.
At 7:40 in the night, their training finally came to an end.
Completely drenched in sweat, steam was oozing out of their exhausted sweaty body.
Quite satisfied with their progress, manager Makoto and manager Nozomi were looking at the data which they\'ve collected during the training with their lips curled.
Huff!! Huff!!
Panting heavily, Hiro and Tatsuki, both of them were lying on the gym floor, completely exhausted. Their muscles bulging and sore, they were having difficulty in moving their body.
"How long are you guys planning on sleeping on the floor? Aren\'t you guys planning on having dinner?" Manager Nozomi spoke sarcastically while looking at them.
"Just 1 minute more." Tatsuki spoke with great difficulty.
**** ****
At around 8:15, along with Tatsuki he entered the canteen after having a quick shower. Because of the exhaustion from extra training, both of them walked quite slow and stiffly just like a mechanical robot.
And that day the coach\'s had informed the chefs in advance about his extra training and had specially asked them to prepare him his special diet food which consisted of chicken breast, avocado, eggs, salmon, some rice, misp soup and some vegetable salad.
Extremely hungry because of the extra training, Hiro\'s eyes glowed as he witnessed the food prepared for him.
"Woah that\'s a lot of food. And we also have chicken breast." Hiro mumbled in awe.
Since Hiro was really fond of chicken, he couldn\'t help but feel excited about the food prepared for him.
"But why do they look kinda uncooked to me?" Noticing the bland colour of the chicken breast, Hiro questioned.
"Yeah!! They look kinda uncooked." Tatsuki who was standing right beside him nodded his head seriously.
"But who cares about the look. Taste is King. Plus I\'m really hungry right now. I could eat a whole chicken by myself." Mumbled Tatsuki while gulping his saliva.
After that both of them headed towards a table and placed their tray full of food atop the table.
And as they sat down, both of them thanked god for providing them food to eat.
"\'Thank you for the food."\' Joining their hands into namaste they expressed their gratefulness before eating.
Just as Hiro took a bite of the chicken breast, Hiro contorted his face and quickly spat the chunk of chicken breast in his mouth.
As unpleasing as the dishes looked, the taste of the food was even worst. With not much spices, the food tasted completely bland.
Hiro who was used to eating food which were taste buds pleasing, quite didn\'t like the taste of the bland dinner specially prepared for him.
"Sir!! I think you forgot to add spices." Complained Hiro after having a bite of the food prepared for him.
Tatsuki too spat the food out of his mouth and nodded his head, "Yes sir!! The foods kinda bland."
"Eat what you\'re getting to eat. The coach\'s had specially asked me to prepare this dishes for you. So if you have any complaints regarding the food then complain it to the coach\'s, not me." An old man in his fifties who was dressed in white chef uniform, standing at the counter replied in a harsh tone while making a bitter face.
That old man along with few other staff members were responsible for cooking the food for the players residing in the hostel.
And unlike other staff members that old man was the only one who resided in the hostel.
"Don\'t get angry old man Oniki. We\'re not complaining about your cooking. I\'ve been eating the food you prepared for more than 3 years and have I ever complained about your food? Infact I very much enjoy the food you prepare. But can you please add some salt and pepper?" Tatsuki tried to calm the old man with his flattering words.
