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

After Oguri Hat finished explaining things to Kitahara and making a training plan, it was Fujimasa's turn.

"Little March, your training method is much simpler. It is to learn to be extremely focused, to be able to enter a state of concentration in a short time, and to master the basic use of momentum."

"Another key point is to push the limits of physical fitness and leg strength. If the body's physical fitness has reached its limit, then try to discover more abilities in other areas and find further possibilities for your future."

He didn't voice the idea of ​​a second sprint.

After all, it was still unknown whether the other party could achieve it, and Golden Victory even thought that Fujimasa March might give him other surprises.

In her view, directly limiting the target beforehand was somewhat inappropriate.

"Okay, Golden Victory, boss."

Unlike Oguri Hat, who would ask questions with a hint of confusion.

Fujimasa has no doubts about the senior he respects.

Even though she and Oguri Hat were fierce rivals in this match, and the Golden Victory clearly favored Oguri Hat, the same applies.

After all, Fujimasa's March was able to defeat Oguri Hat thanks to the techniques taught by this senior, so it didn't matter if the other party had some selfish motives or was biased towards her.

Trust your seniors, and then put in even more effort to defeat your enemies. That's all you need to do.

"Oh, you're quite well-behaved. I'll leave it to you, Shibasaki. I actually have high hopes for you guys. Good luck!"

After patting Trainer Shibasaki on the shoulder, the pure white horse girl quickly ran towards the Kasamatsu Tressen dormitory building...

"So, in the end, it's you left, Glorious."

"Kitahara and Shibasaki are in charge of Oguri Hat and Little March, so I don't need to go into too much detail or give them personal guidance. This way, I can spend more time helping you on your side."

With a grin, Golden Victory and New Radiance were in the storage room of Kasamatsu Tresen's dormitory.

There wasn't much extra space available in Kasamatsu Tressen's room, so Golden Victory and New Radiance could only do what they needed to do in this small space.

Holding the newly gleaming body data in her hand, the pure white horse girl analyzed it.

"Because you entered Kasamatsu Tressen through an exam, there was no so-called racing training before that, so your physical fitness is naturally not as good as those racehorse girls who were prepared before entering the school."

"The school probably intends to train you to be a logistics staff member responsible for assisting in the races of Uma Musume, so the recruitment standards have been relaxed indirectly."

After all, racehorse girls who are admitted to school solely based on their athletic talents are a rare breed in the region.

After all, it is a school educational institution. Apart from competition-related content, students still need to learn other things they are supposed to learn.

"So your qualities do need improvement, and there is a lot of room for improvement. In the coming period, you must accept grueling training that may not be rewarding. You must be aware of this."

As she spoke, the pure white horse girl revealed a terrifying aura, causing the already somewhat timid New Radiance to tremble.

"So, as a mortal racehorse girl who wants to break the rules, what do you have to offer besides guidance from me, a top racehorse girl? Shining New Brilliance."

“I…I know very well what supplies racehorse girls need.”

"Correct answer!"

With a snap, Golden Victory snapped his fingers.

“I’ve seen the shoes you selected for Oguri Hat. They’re quite good by local standards, no, you could even call them professional.”

"Your knowledge is somewhat limited, but you have a broad enough understanding. If you work hard based on that, it's not impossible for you to become a trainee in the logistics department of Central Tressen. No, I would say there's an 80% chance."

For professional horse racers to move from the local to the central level, they need to have convincingly outstanding results, but for the logistics department, it's more about so-called...

"Um, Golden Victory-senpai, is the logistics department of Central Teresen Academy... really that impressive?"

Originally, Shining Glory was already mentally prepared that this was not an advantage worth mentioning.

Surprisingly, the gold medal provided a different answer.

"It's alright, no, strictly speaking, it's not very good."

"Things might get better in the future, but that'll have to wait until some guys retire. Until then, the logistics department shouldn't expect to make any significant contributions. Even if they do, they'll just be ignored or even written into the rules."

"So you have two tasks: one is yourself, and the other is the team."

"The team's task is simple: to tailor the best running shoes for Oguri Hat and Little March. I believe you can do that."

"Tailor-made...the best?"

"After all, every female racehorse is different in terms of her physical structure and the details of her feet touching the ground. Under these circumstances, measuring and making the most suitable racing shoes can definitely help in the race."

"Hmm... I should be able to get the tools I have from my hometown over soon, but the experimental materials..."

"It's alright, I can cover your material costs first, and it can be deducted from their bounty later."

Shrugging her shoulders, the pure white horse girl replied indifferently.

"As for personal tasks..."

"If you don't have enough talent, you make up for it with other things." Have you ever heard this saying?

Faced with a racehorse girl who has a clear understanding of racehorse equipment, Golden Victory has a bold idea.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Hot Springs!

Once the training plan is decided, all that's left is to work hard every day to achieve the goal.

Time slowly passed as Kasamatsu and the others trained diligently...

November has arrived in the blink of an eye, and the weather is gradually transitioning from late autumn to winter.

Recently, a strange legend has begun to spread at Kasamatsu Tresen Academy.

It is said that a beautiful pure white horse girl would wander around the school late at night, attracting a few passersby who noticed her presence to stop and secretly observe her.

However, she would occasionally lie on the ground and make strange sniffing motions, or pull out a shovel and dig into the ground.

However, the timing of her appearances was very strange; some of the female horse riders who didn't return home late at night had encountered her several times in the middle of the night.

The sight of the bright red eyes in the corner of their eye, coupled with the clanging sound of the shovel digging into the ground, terrified everyone who saw it, including the horse. Their hearts would skip a beat, especially when they passed by the pit in the ground.

It's as if the white-haired, red-eyed horse demon in front of you will pounce on you at any moment, knock you unconscious with her shovel, and then bury you alive!

The dampness with a metallic smell that some people found when they stepped into those pits further supports this horror story.

In just five days, she almost became one of the eight mysteries of Kasamatsu Tresen Academy!

It wasn't until the sixth day, when Golden Victory appeared in broad daylight, that everyone realized this white-haired, red-eyed horse demon was actually real...

If her actions hadn't occurred in an area that was largely uninhabited and only frequented by a few people, it might have caused widespread panic and endless protests.

However, to be fair, in bright daylight, Golden Victory is a wild-type beauty, a little more energetic than other racehorse girls.

So the pure white horse girl's very strange behavior made passersby who observed her sigh:

She's very good-looking, it's just a pity she has hands and feet.

Sniff...

Sniff sniff sniff...

Hmm... the flavor isn't quite there.

As always, he embraced his individuality and continued to focus on what he considered important.

"Um... what exactly have you been up to lately, Miss Golden Victory?"

"The principal is so curious about your behavior that he's sent me, someone who knows you on campus, to inquire about it..."

Kitahara was quite helpless in the face of this pure white horse girl with a peculiar way of thinking.

How should we evaluate this...?

He is very strong and powerful, and has a very good physique and appearance.

But this person's brain is probably neither human nor horse-like, but rather heading at full speed toward extraterrestrial life?

Because of her background as a Central Horse Girl and a Central Trainer, even the principal of Kasamatsu Tressen Academy dared not directly question her actions.

Furthermore, judging from her current actions, Golden Victory has not actually infringed upon the interests of the academy itself.

The school could only use the word "curiosity" to euphemistically express its dissatisfaction with Kim Jong-un's behavior.

However, after hearing this answer, Golden Victory paused thoughtfully for a moment.

The beautiful woman's furrowed brows and professional pose, like that of a model on location, instantly caught Kitahara's eye.

The sunlight gently fell on the pure white horse girl's white hair, and the bright red in her eyes was no longer piercing, but became like the top-grade ruby, bright red and translucent, with a deep depth that could be seen. The entire horse girl was elevated to the level of a work of art.

Unfortunately, all of this beauty vanished in the next moment.

"Oh! That's so true! How come I didn't think of that?!"

"what?"

After being jolted awake by the other party's words, Kitahara became even more confused.

"This is it! Rosemary! Since we haven't found it on the outside, it must be inside the campus, right!"

"Wh...what, what are you looking for?"

"Looking for what?" After a pause, the pure white horse girl answered in a matter-of-fact tone, "Hot springs! Hot springs!"

"Kitahara, look, you train so hard every day, you definitely need the help of the hot springs, you understand!"

Kitahara: "???"

If only I could spend a little more time with this pure white horse girl, even just one more minute...

Kitahara always felt that he would be corrupted by the other person's bizarre way of thinking, and then become another bizarre person who would continue to harm others...

“Hot springs…” Kitahara stroked his chin after hearing Golden Victory’s answer, thought for a moment, and then continued to ask his question.

Yeah, I just wanted to ask, I was just curious, I felt uncomfortable if I didn't ask.

"But if you really want to soak in hot springs, why not go to a place where there are already hot springs instead of digging them yourself?"

"Even if we're trying to save money and still want to relax, the money we spend on a trip to a hot spring hotel might not even cover Oguri's meal expenses, right?"

Thinking about this, and considering the financial strain caused by the lack of recent matches, Kitahara couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

When it comes to food, Oguri Hat caused Kitahara no less headache than this Golden Victory Lady in front of him...

However, after hearing the response from the pure white horse girl in front of him, he realized that Oguri Hat's eating habits weren't actually as outrageous as he had thought.
