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

Just as he was turning the corner and preparing to sprint, it wasn't a performance of any emotion.

That was the advice given silently by the golden victor:

My foolish and adorable junior—

Don't think that a final sprint at the end of the race will guarantee you victory!

......

Perhaps there is more to say.

Perhaps there are other meanings they want to convey.

However, these things were not so good for the already somewhat chaotic Emperor of the East Sea.

These things seem to have lost their meaning...

"Cross the finish line!"

As the referee, Rudolf symbolically signaled the end of the match the moment the white figure passed by...

"Hoo... Hah!!!"

Just after the deceleration was complete, the Emperor of the East Sea lowered his head.

As the face faces the ground, it continuously secretes youthful sweat to dissipate heat.

At this moment, the Emperor of the East Sea was breathing heavily.

Subconsciously, she wanted to allow her body to adjust optimally after slowing down.

However, she wasn't tired; she was more confused.

More than anything, it was her intense resentment!

Didn't I already break through Senior White Disaster's aura technique?

Even if the other party went easy on me in this regard...

Didn't I crack it myself?!

why!

Why?!

Why did I lose so badly?!

The pale blue eyes, devoid of color, widened in anger, and the blood vessels in them dilated with agitation.

A sinister bloodshot stained his blue eyes.

The East Sea Emperor, feeling utterly defeated, was still recovering his strength even though he hadn't exhausted himself.

She had no intention of immediately going over to meet Rudolf, the symbol of the Golden Victory.

Because of her... she felt she didn't deserve it!

As a loser, the Emperor of the East Sea is desperately trying to figure out why he failed!

However, this intense confusion did not cause the talented horse girl to shed a single tear of resentment.

Because she still wanted to know why she lost the game!

......

On the other hand, Golden Victory, who had already finished the match, was clearly in complete control.

At this moment, she walked off the field with a slightly smug look on her face and started chatting with Rudolf, who was acting as the referee.

"Hey Rudolf, how's our run going?"

As a senior in the same field, someone who has experienced all sorts of people and things, and even someone from a prestigious family who now serves as the student council president.

She is perhaps even more skilled in this regard than Pure White Horse Girl.

What Golden Victory wanted to ask was naturally not just about the game performance.

After all, she had already said that she was running at a relaxed pace.

"The final gap is estimated to be nearly one and a half horse lengths, and the performance is excellent."

"But I still suggest that you, Bai Zai, spend more time explaining things to the Emperor properly. Her behavior has been very abnormal since the deceleration began."

Looking at the resentful Emperor of the East Sea not far away, Rudolf said with a hint of pity on his face:

"Otherwise, I worry that this child will fall into a strong doubt about his own abilities later on."

"Although this is a lesson that Empress, a racehorse girl who has never lost even in practice races, must learn, I think this kind of lesson in failure should be taught in a slightly more lenient way."

"Having the talent of a strong person doesn't mean she was born with the mind of a strong person..."

Upon hearing this, Golden Victory raised an eyebrow slightly.

Oh, so protective of the Emperor-chan?

They won't even give this genius horse girl a little bit of care from her seniors, or even a chance to learn from her failures, huh?

Golden Victory was somewhat surprised by Rudolph's earlier role in helping or nurturing the East Sea Emperor.

However, Golden Victory then stopped overanalyzing these details or personal privacy.

I'm not quite sure what the other party's intentions are.

But now that the Emperor of the East Sea has become her own racehorse girl...

Now that the adorable little pony girl is in his hands, he can pinch, rub, and knead her as he pleases.

Isn't this already a golden victory for the trainer, and only she has the final say?

"Of course, I'm Imperial Treasure's trainer, so post-battle reflections and encouragement are essential parts of the job!"

Her tone carried a hint of the composure of a victor and excitement about the education to come, but her words were also quite sincere.

As a senior player, I don't even need to see the materials in the post-match analysis of defeats. My own experience is enough for Golden Victory to analyze more than 80% of the reasons.

Especially since part of the content of this defeat report was actually fabricated by himself...

That would definitely be even simpler!

For example, the kind of content that describes what the opponent might have done is not entirely persuasive.

As a wicked woman and wicked senior who personally smashed the Imperial Palace into a state of utter stupidity...

Golden Victory must be very clear about what he did!

"Well, I should probably head over now. You can pick up the post-match video recording yourself, Bai Zai... or I'll just forward it to you."

As the applicant for the competition simulation venue and related equipment, the detailed records of the practice matches should, in principle, end up in the hands of Rudolf.

However, she herself does not seem to have any intention of handling these somewhat private competition materials.

Even though the competition was already thoroughly exposed after she witnessed it firsthand, the Empress would still not violate the established principles.

"Hehehe! Thanks! As expected of the president, he's such a kind and generous person! The after-sales service is impeccable! He truly is a professional!"

"Well, never mind, I'll go comfort the Emperor first..."

Faced with such shameless flattery from Golden Victory, Rudolf simply showed a few slightly helpless expressions.

She chose to take the initiative to comfort the East Sea Emperor, who was on the verge of an emotional breakdown from self-reflection.

However, despite Rudolf's seemingly composed answer, her expression actually betrayed a degree of worry as she approached him.

I thought I could handle it, that after a slight pain I would get up and then experience a lesson in failure that would further ignite my fighting spirit.

Judging from the current situation, this is, in a sense, the first time for the emperor of the East Sea.

For her, the pain seemed to be excessive and unbearable...

After finishing the race, Golden Victory chatted briefly with the Emperor before seeing that this caring senior had gone to comfort the East Sea Emperor, who seemed to be having some difficulty accepting the reality.

Therefore, she didn't plan to go over and comfort them immediately.

According to Huang Jinsheng, the effect of comforting and cheering people on will not increase as the number of people increases.

Even if the two had different things to say, it would be difficult for the younger Emperor of the East Sea to fully digest them in a short time.

Besides, they're not really little kids.

The fact that two seniors offered her comfort one after another seemed more like an insult to the genius horse girl, the Emperor of the East Sea.

So, while using the extra time to continue resting, Golden Victory also glanced around at the people around him.

There were about thirty-five spectators at the moment, of whom only twenty were racehorse girls.

I glanced at it briefly.

Although I'm not 100% confident, a golden victory is pretty much certain.

The people in front of us, the professional audience.

These are basically not the teams that can participate in the big prize competition.

To be conservative, even if there were any, they would definitely be the kind of contestants who are at the bottom of the popularity rankings, not favored, and certainly not capable of winning, let alone even making it into the competition.

Second-rate, even third-rate Central Racehorse Girls.

This is a phenomenon of central racehorse girls monopolized by a top-notch team of trainers and prestigious families.

Even if some top-tier racehorse girls with amateur backgrounds and teams formed by rookie trainers emerge during this period, and assuming they can prove themselves by winning race after race...

In the end, it will just be the birth of yet another top-notch team of trainers.

Or perhaps it's simply a matter of prestigious families absorbing and recruiting new blood.

Gathering the images of the people around him into his mind, this group of people ultimately transformed into a soft hum at the corner of Golden Victory's mouth.

"Oh."

Judging from the surprised expressions on their faces after the match, Golden Victory knew that these people were definitely not top-tier players capable of breaking the rules.

Even if she has potential that she can't see, it's unrealistic to expect her to unleash it.

In today's highly competitive professional esports scene, they may ultimately realize far less of their potential due to various reasons.

But Golden Victory didn't say anything that looked down on this group.

On the contrary, this is the kind of people who make up a significant portion of the Central Teresen Academy today.
