In third grade, Uchinai got lost while running in the mountains for morning exercise. Deep in the forests of Miyagi, his hometown, he ran into a white-haired child who seemed like some kind of mountain spirit.
In the deep green woods, the child stared at him with cold, dark blue eyes, utterly detached from the world.
As if under a spell, Uchinai took an unconscious step forward, reached out, and brought him home.
Even years later, he still thought it was one of the best choices he had ever made. They grew up together, made it through their darkest times, and fell in love with volleyball side by side.
Shiraizumi is the cutest, best-behaved kid in the world.
The Karasuno team nodded emphatically in agreement.
But all their opponents fell silent.
Off the court, Shiraizumi obediently lowered his head so his teammates and coach could ruffle his hair. He really was a huge, fluffy dog, always smiling with his eyes narrowed and little flowers seeming to bloom all around him. But...
On the court, Shiraizumi's slightly long white hair swayed with his movements. Beneath its shadow, the warmth had vanished from those brilliant blue eyes at some point, and his smile had faded, leaving behind only a razor-sharp chill.
You're saying this is your harmless Samoyed?
The difference between his court-side and off-court demeanor is way too huge!
And also...
Natori, passing by from the neighboring Natsume's Book of Friends set, let out a shrill scream: Why is a spirit hanging around humans, and playing volleyball like a good little boy?!
Shiraizumi flashed a huge smile.
I'm just a Samoyed who wants to win the national championship!
1. The blurb is subject to revision.
2. The story does not involve any supernatural powers. In human form, Shiraizumi is just an ordinary person.
