Uma Musume no Nama no Nichijou (Horse Girl), First and foremost

Strive to create a groundbreaking, all-purpose racing shoe that allows you to compete alongside other racehorse girls!

Chapter 82 Terminator

Time passed slowly.

However, this period was an unforgettable nightmare for Mi Yu.

She was being touched like that, and with those strange gloves on, he touched her from her thighs to her toes, repeatedly checking the details, from the skin of her knees to her calves.

Fortunately, the new brilliance did not require too much intrusion when testing data with the instrument, and in the end, the black-haired pony girl was blushing.

Ugh... this is so embarrassing, sob sob sob...

If it weren't for the fact that Golden Victory was standing nearby, Mi Yu probably would have kicked the opponent first and then run away.

Even so, Mi Yu still felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

However, seeing the serious look on Shining Radiance's face, she could only barely hold back and force herself to face the chestnut-haired horse girl with the same trust in her team members and professionalism.

Just like her trust in Golden Victory.

"Okay, that's all. The contact surface data for both legs has been saved for now. Thank you for your hard work."

With a whoosh, he moved his hands away from the other person's calves, and the brand-new, radiant figure responded while operating the instrument to record data:

"I just helped Mi Yu build the leg model that will be needed for your custom-made racing shoes, so I had to touch them all carefully to make sure they were complete."

Seemingly aware of the other party's feelings, the newly radiant light immediately offered an explanation.

"Because of limited funds and the need to ensure accuracy, we have no choice but to use additional manpower to achieve our goal at this stage. We can only ask you to make do for now."

"If we can purchase imported or domestically developed professional instruments that are not yet in mass production, in addition to the increase in accuracy, it will also give testers a better testing experience. Sorry."

Hearing this, Golden Victory patted Mi Yu's head to offer some comfort.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mi Yu. We don't have that kind of money right now, otherwise I would definitely choose a way to make things better for you."

"Right now, we can't contribute much money, and the money has to be used wisely. So we'll just have to make do for now, and then we'll have to work together to raise the funds later."

As a poor racehorse girl who is frequently disqualified or even banned, Golden Victory doesn't have much extra money on hand.

At most, the prize money from the high-reward competitions won during that period, before the Uma Musume Association deliberately targeted them, can be used.

However, her daily expenses and additional costs (such as paying fines) were not small, so over time, she naturally had very little money left...

In this regard, Golden Victory could even boast about it.

If we're talking about losing money in a competition, I'm undoubtedly number one!

Mi Yu didn't notice the complex inner thoughts of the pure white horse girl at that moment. After fidgeting with her legs, she finally expressed her gratitude to the newly radiant woman.

"Um... thank you for your help, Mr. New Radiance."

After putting away the gloves, he also made a backup of the data on a USB drive. Then, with a smile, he replied:

"Just call me Glorious or Little Glorious. We'll all be teammates from now on, so there's no need to be so formal."

Although we are about the same height, calling him "Little Glorious" feels a little strange.

However, the new brilliance does indeed want to get along well with Mi Yu.

During the short period that Golden Victory spent at Central Teresen Academy, the two of them did not meet, and were even unaware of each other's existence.

Oh no, she knows about the new radiance; she has the data from the first version of the Rice Bath that Golden Victory gave her.

In short, even now, despite Golden Victory's initiative to meet, there is still a somewhat inexplicable distance between the two.

Even someone with her personality is like this...

If Oguri or even March came over, wouldn't everyone's relationship be even more strained?

This marks a new chapter of glory for the team that joined Golden Victory during Kasamatsu's time.

She suddenly realized that perhaps she should shoulder the great responsibility of improving team relations!

Who can blame her when these racehorse girls will definitely wear the racing shoes she specially made for them!

"Uh, um, okay, okay, Hikari-chan."

Unaware of the sense of responsibility that had arisen in the other person at that moment, Mi Yu responded to the new radiance with a sense of unfamiliarity.

"By the way, Miyu-chan, do you want to take a break today? I remember the selection competition is going to be held at Treson Academy in a while."

"After you rest today, I will start arranging pre-match training for you."

After briefly recalling the various schedules at Treson Academy, Golden Victory shared what he remembered with the other person.

As for the pre-match training, it was quite different from what she had previously instructed Mi Yu to do.

Previously, Golden Victory's guidance to Mi Yu focused more on recovery training.

Although she hasn't had a full physical examination yet to confirm her physical details, based on Golden Victory's own experience, it's time to increase the intensity of her training.

"Ah! Mi Yu could actually start training today!"

"I soaked in the hot springs and had a big meal yesterday, and I feel great now!"

As she spoke, Mi Yu even clenched her little fist in front of Golden Victory, making a cheering gesture, as if to express that she was in a very good state.

"But... it's almost evening now. If you're like this, then training... well, to be honest, it's not impossible."

She smirked, originally intending to tell the other person that she had to go to the mascot club that night or something.

Seeing the pitiful look flickering beneath Mi Yu's purple eyes, Golden Victory later thought about it carefully...

Ugh, playing games with people is such a hassle!

I touched it!

The main reason is that those people are basically the type who won't be satisfied if you give them something, but will be very grateful if you give them something only once in a while.

So, if we delay a little longer, or postpone it a bit more, the effect might be even better?

They decisively abandoned the mascot trainers under their own club.

The "bad woman" Golden Victory immediately responded in a very positive way, taking on the role of a responsible trainer:

"Alright, I'll personally supervise your training today. I'll find time in the next few days to arrange special training tests for you, Mi Yu."

The testing program mentioned here is the same as the operation that Golden Victory did to Oguri Hat and Fujimasa March before. It is to confirm the opponent's momentum-related development direction through competition with the tester.

Although Golden Victory had already made some plans regarding the characteristics that Rice Bath had previously exhibited.

But...

Try it yourself, and you'll see there are definitely only benefits and no drawbacks.

"Okay...yes!"

Although she couldn't fully understand what her older sister had said, for Mi Yu, all she needed to do was show unconditional trust in Golden Victory...

Rice Bath aims to bring happiness to people.

Golden Victory's sister believes that Rice Bath is the racehorse girl who can bring happiness to everyone.

So that's fine. Mi Yu believes that her older sister will definitely take good care of her.

Even if mistakes happen along the way... it's because I didn't try hard enough, it's because I'm not good enough.

Ah, but my older sister said that Mi Yu can't practice secretly anymore.

Some complex emotions subtly emerged under self-motivation.

Perhaps this deep-seated sense of inferiority and lack of self-confidence will have to wait until winning the selection competition, the debut competition, or even when Mi Yu receives a hefty reward.

Only then will this lack of self-confidence disappear...

But that evening, just as Golden Victory and her teammates were about to set off for training, an old friend appeared outside her dormitory.

Oh, to be precise, there should also be an old friend's daughter.

"Congratulations, White Disaster."

The person who came to visit was wearing a cowboy hat, and his sunglasses had been replaced with regular glasses because it was evening.

He wasn't tall, but he was quite muscular. If anyone else saw him, they would probably think he was a handsome older man exuding the unique charm of a middle-aged man.

However, at his current age, Kuronuma is not only considered a middle-aged man or a father, but he could even be considered a young grandfather.

"Greetings, Senior Baizai. Please forgive us for disturbing you at this late hour with my father."

Just after Kuronuma greeted everyone in a somewhat puzzling way, the chestnut-haired horse girl, Miura Haruno, respectfully greeted Golden Victory directly.

"Hey, hey, hey? What's wrong with you, Lao Hei? You suddenly figured out how to teach your daughter this?"

But when Kuronuma heard the other person's slightly surprised and teasing tone, he felt a little embarrassed.

"Well... Bourbon, you can explain it to the White Disaster yourself."

“Master said this is the kind of response we must prepare when others visit us after the competition, so it is meaningful information that we must learn.”

Sure enough, after greeting everyone, Miura Bourbon immediately reverted to her previous strange state of personality flaws.

Like a robot, she seems to have some emotional ups and downs in her responses, but it always gives people the feeling that she is actually responding to others with a cold and indifferent attitude.

"Hey, not bad. It's true that if anyone continues to visit the contestants after the winners' stage, they're mostly big shots who you can't afford to mess with."

Most of the time, out of respect for the racehorse girls, no one would choose to disturb them after the race, especially after the winner's performance.

However, for some people, this is the perfect time to visit them.

For example, liaisons for large businesses or television reporters.

In order to save every second and prevent others from getting the contract or first-hand information first, they will seize the opportunity to visit even if it makes the participating horse girls feel slightly bad.

Well, in this regard, the merchants naturally have their own procedures, such as offering expensive gifts as condolences depending on the situation, as well as some contractual profit sharing.

As for entertainment reporters, they don't get as many benefits. At most, they'll be informed before the interview that they'll be given rare exposure opportunities as a racehorse girl during certain important periods.

At this point, the person usually dealing with the situation is not the agent or trainer, but the horse girl herself.

Since every move a female horse makes can potentially affect her popularity and the implicit valuation of her own value, it is indeed necessary to learn proper etiquette and manners.

"It seems that Old Hei really thinks highly of his daughter, but we still suggest that she only learn this kind of thing a little bit."
