While the players were still getting drowned by sadness, Kumiko was also quite busy. She didn't go straight to Higo for many reasons. One, the boy was stronger than anyone else in the team. She truly believed that while the defeat shook him off right now, he would be able to get over this state soon. As for the second reason… Well, they would meet again later, privately, even, so there was no need to do that right now.
No, instead of doing that, she put more focus on the other players like Kenji and Denji, who looked so dead right now.
"Come on, it is just one game…" Kumiko rubbed Kenji's back soothingly. "No one will blame you here. You have done your best, but not everything ends up in a win, you know? Maybe losing today will be a great lesson for you in the future, right?"
