Episode 1

"To the left!" The libero of the team shouted.

Karl swiftly approached the position where the volleyball was supposed to land. Before the volleyball could touch the ground, Karl got on his position and set the volleyball towards their outside hitter alias Spiker.

However, the outside hitter couldn't match the speed of Karl setting the volleyball or the speed of the volleyball.

Temporarily, the volleyball touched the ground and it was a defeat for them.

"What in the **** were you doing? It was such an easy task to spike the volleyball towards our opponent! We could at least get another match to play!" Karl let out his anger.

"You little brat! You were the one who settled the volleyball too fast! You could have waited or passed the volleyball in another direction!" Debated their OH(outside hitter).

"Huh?! After losing this badly you wanna argue with me now?" Karl responded in unbelief.

Karl is a short-tempered person. Karl can't stand the urge to fight back or insult the other players for their weak points. Karl is a person who will praise you for your skills while badmouthing and taunting you for your worst skills.

"Shut up, you both! The coach is looking for us. Let's go." Said their team captain.

All of them approached their coach.

"You all played well. Even if you guys lost. Remember to learn from your loss and win next time. And, Karl. I know you're better at being a setter. But, you should also look if the person you're gonna set your Volleyball to is free to spike or receive the volleyball." Explained the coach.

The coach knows how good, Karl is at setting if not for his short-temper and speed setting.

Karl doesn't care about his teammates and the coach knows that pretty well. 

It's difficult for Karl to at least praise his teammates even for the team's good skills or improvement in worst skills.

"Coach. He was the one who couldn't spike the volleyball. Why am I being scolded then? We clearly know if not for our OH worst skills in hitting the Volleyball we could have got another match to play." Karl said calmly pointing still, at their team's OH.

Though it was only a friendly match between their "COV" team and "BOAT" team. This match not only meant professionalism but teamwork and skills as well.

The BOAT team was doing good in teamwork and strategies. Because of their teamwork, they won eventually.

Both of the teams faced each other with a 'I'm gonna beat you next time' Look.

All of them shake hands.

The BOAT team's S (Setter) shake his hands with Karl grabbing them tightly, "I've never seen a dumbass little brat like you being the worst Setter of all time. Work harder next time if you wanna lose another time."

Karl wasn't a person who could let go of someone if they insulted Karl before Karl himself.

Karl didn't hold back looking at the BOAT team's S, "Actually, if you would've played well, your team wouldn't have lost so many points while playing with us or when you guys went to face the pro team. Oh! I recall, you also missed the volleyball twice and missed the position of the volleyball a bunch of times. Wait, there's still more I can even write a whole book out of it."

Karl grabbed tightly on the BOAT team's S before giving a big bright smile that could piss anyone off even if they've won.

"Y- You brat-- "

Karl quickly let go of S's hand before he headed towards his team.

The BOAT team's OH looked at their team's S, "What are you waiting for? We're leaving now. Let's go."

"Hey, did I not play well?" Asked S.

"Oh... Well... That's quite difficult to answer-- "

"What are you both waiting for? Shut up, we're leaving now. And, Louis you. You better watch your mouth and skills before ranting about them to someone more skilled than you." The BOAT team's captain is good at observing players' skills.

It was a piece of cake to know whether the opponent team's players were good enough to beat them up to a pulp.

And surprisingly the BOAT team's captain also thinks if it wasn't for the COV team's OH missing that perfect settled volleyball it could've been another draw. And, the next thing to happen could be the BOAT team's defeat.

Originally, the COV team's name stood for, 'Champion Of Volleyball'. But, because they lost the National Qualifiers tournament against the TBC team. The internet bullied the whole team.

Karl also didn't hold back as he replied to every single person who insulted his team. He didn't bother to defend himself as he was used to it.

Despite that, Karl worked harder and maintained his setting skills. But, it's just that his team couldn't keep up with Karl. And, thus the coach and team have already decided to kick out Karl from the team.

Karl knows about it.

Only a few months to go on. After the next National Qualifiers Tournament will occur. This will be his last match before leaving the COV team.

Karl didn't care much as he thought he could still join another team if not this one. Karl didn't have a good relationship with his team as well. Therefore, Karl had no other alternative to stay in the team.

A few months left before the National Qualifiers tournament. Will Karl be able to go on Nationals? Or will Karl be held back?

This one remains a mystery.
