[Displaying main mission #2: Two-way Player to the user]

Upon hearing the last message, Shun felt his consciousness being transported to a different place. He then opened his eyes and was surprised by what he saw. He was in a packed baseball stadium, with the crowd making a deafening noise. He looked down and found himself in the batter's box. He then looked at the catcher and the umpire behind him, but for some reason, he couldn't see their faces.

He then looked toward the mound, where he saw a right-handed pitcher starting his windup. He felt a focus he had never felt before. He noticed all the pitcher's movements until the ball left his fingers: the rotation, the speed, the trajectory. He could see everything clearly. Suddenly, he felt his body move to hit the pitch, with a powerful yet precise swing.

He felt the bat make contact with the ball in the best possible spot.

DONG

He saw the ball flying towards center field. It was gone, a home run. Before he started running, he felt his vision change. Now he was on the mound in the windup position, about to pitch. He felt his leg lift, the weight transfer. It felt like every muscle in his body was giving strength to the pitch.

He felt the ball leave his fingers with incredible speed.

WOOSH

STRIKEOUT!

He saw the batter swing and miss. He heard the sound of the catcher's glove perfectly catching the ball and the umpire declaring the strikeout. He was about to celebrate but felt his vision change again.

DONG

He heard the sound of the ball being perfectly hit and started running. With a simple look at the hit, he knew the ball's trajectory. He ran quickly towards the fence, and just as he was about to crash into it, he jumped. He used his leg as a boost and managed to put his hand on top of the fence. He was at the highest possible position, it was perfect. He raised his glove and saw the ball land in it.

He had just robbed a home run. Again, he felt his vision change.

This time he was in an empty stadium. There were no more players or spectators, and he could move his body at will again. It was a strange experience to see a play in the first person, feel everything happening but not be able to control anything. Of course, the sensation of making those plays was wonderful.

Shun couldn't help but imagine if he could ever make such incredible plays as the ones he experienced. But his thoughts were quickly interrupted by a noise in his head.

"Hahahahaha, I knew it. In the end, you're a good system, right? A legendary pitch, a new shoulder, hahaha, that's it.
