Blue Lock Chapter 242 Spoilers:
The upcoming chapter of Blue Lock will be titled “The Magician and The Blue Rose” (Part 1)” and begins with Ness’s backstory.
Ness is a boy, alone in his world, searching for magic. He was born into a family of scientists who could explain everything in the world. One time, young Ness returned him while his arm was bleeding.
Not knowing how the world worked, young Ness asked his father if he could heal his wounds with magic. His father told him to wash and disinfect the wound so that bacteria would not enter his body. If not washed, he can die from bacteria.
Kid Ness, so confused, went to his mother to ask if he was going to die. His mother told him that the wound was not deep enough to kill him and that the probability of Ness dying was 0.01%. Ness’s siblings were also there and mocked his concern about the superficial wound.
A few days later, Ness was reading a book and asked his siblings if they could summon a demon with magic. His brother and sister again taunt him about ‘magic’ because Ness cannot accept that it is just an aspect of fiction.
One day, Ness was playing with a snowman he made and chanting some strange words. His sister told him to be quiet because she couldn’t concentrate on her research, but Ness told her he was practicing his magical powers.
Ness’s brother broke his’magic’stick and his sister knocked down the snowman. His siblings told their parents about Ness talking about magic again, and his parents responded coldly. “We don’t need people who believe in unexplainable things in our house.”
Ness begins to cry as he holds his stick, book, and broken snowman in the field. We see Ness’s imagination of what magic can do. After Ness weighed his decisions, he was standing in front of the stadium entrance.
Young Ness believes that football cannot be explained because it is a kind of magic that can make people stand up and cheer just when someone scores a goal. He started practicing soccer while his family kept trying to lose his interest.
While playing a local match, Ness scored a goal and all members of his team were lost in ecstasy by his technique. His coach told him to go ahead and try out for the German team nicknamed “Bastard Munchen”.
This is his chance to become a professional player for Germany’s best team and his test match begins. Initially, the match was quite interesting for Ness himself. Then he started losing his temper and people started stealing the ball from him.
His teammates started yelling at him for being so stupid and letting people take the ball away from him. Ness fell to the ground and remembered his family’s words. At the end of the chapter, Kaiser comes in and asks if he believes in something “impossible.”
No break next week; the series will return in the next issue of Weekly Shonen Magazine. Blue Lock chapter 242 will be released on November 24, 2023.
You can read the series for free on Kodansha’s US website.
