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

Is it because of her?

That unfamiliar Central Racecourse girl?

Just as the opponent unleashed their momentum, Fujimasa's anger, which he thought had been extinguished, was reignited.

But in the blink of an eye, this passively generated momentum was completely wiped out by the pure white horse girl in front of him.

The ethereal state of mind she was in at the time surprised her greatly, so much so that when Fujimasa March responded to Oguri Hat, the tone he used was more like that of a loser admiring the winner.

This seems to be the first time in my entire life that I've been this calm...

"Have you calmed down?"

As if everything that had just happened was a farce, Golden Victory has now reverted to the arrogant mode he used when he first spoke to her.

"You lost the second sprint by a hair's breadth, in less than the blink of an eye, and you're already so angry?"

"Oh, no, that's not right either. Her second sprint was actually terrible. It was more like a racehorse girl's survival instinct, a reaction her body made when she had plenty of energy."

"You should be angry about losing to such a poor sprint when you're in the lead."

Watching Oguri Hat leave the arena with her trainer and teammates, Golden Victory shamelessly explained to her the full reason for Fujimasa March's defeat.

"Um, I'm sorry." At this moment, Fujimasa March's trainer spoke up: "I am Fujimasa March's trainer, my surname is Shibasaki. I am very sorry for my rudeness to Ms. Golden Victory just now."

He wasn't quite sure what the other person wanted to do, but the fact that she could directly point out the problems with the Fujimasa March was, in Shibasaki's view, somewhat of a sign of goodwill.

"No need for formalities, Fujimasa March. I'm very satisfied with your current state and manners."

As she spoke, the tall racehorse girl approached Fujimasa March.

With her blood-red eyes and the static smile at the corner of her mouth, Golden Victory's graceful demeanor instantly transformed this pure white horse girl into a beautiful work of art.

He made his assessment and paused briefly.

Then, the horse girl, who is currently a trainer, extended her invitation.

"So, would you like to experience the winner's stage in the center?"

Were you invited to enter the central government?

However, after calmly considering the matter, Fujimasa first raised a question:

"Why me and not Oguri Hat? She is the winner."

“Because she will inevitably go to the central government in the future, it’s just a matter of time. But if it were you…” At this point, Golden Victory paused.

She looked at the trainer next to her, and the gentleness she had just shown vanished instantly. As if changing her expression, Golden Victory's face turned icy cold.

Faced with the intimidating aura of the white-haired, red-eyed horse girl before him, Shibasaki felt as if he had encountered a ferocious beast or something even more terrifying. His body involuntarily and subconsciously took a few steps back.

"Because a third-rate trainer paired with a second-rate horse girl usually doesn't end well."

"And I want to prove that even a second-rate racehorse girl can achieve first-rate results with enough training and skills, and even create a legend and become a legendary racehorse girl."

"In my opinion, you are a perfect candidate to be my experimental subject."

"Central...Legendary Racehorse Girl...Ah..."

Upon hearing Golden Victory's explanation, Fujimasa's eyes glazed over as if he suddenly remembered something, and in the blink of an eye, he reverted to his usual sharp and unapproachable demeanor.

"Thank you for your kind offer, but I choose to decline."

"My target is Tokai Darby, and so is Oguri Hat. I won't go to the central government."

"Tokai Darby, huh... Well, that makes sense, the right answer for a local racehorse girl."

Golden Victory was not surprised to receive such an answer.

She just found it a little funny.

"Then you'll have to step up your game."

"After Oguri's victory, the next competition is the Chukyo Cup. If she wins again... the door to the Central Championship will be open for her."

"By then, you will be in two different worlds, and you will never have the chance to cross paths again."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Shibasaki, the trainer next to her.

"If I'm not mistaken, you, Shibasaki, are probably not planning to let Fujimasa March participate in the Chukyo Cup anymore, right?"

"Huh? Uh, um..."

A few syllables indirectly revealed the answer.

Judging from the timeline, the Chukyo Cup is a competition that Oguri Hat will definitely participate in next.

Even if Fujimasa's team loses this match and finishes second, they still deserve to participate.

"Why!" Fujimasa March became agitated again at this default answer.

"That's because he thinks you'll lose to Oguri Hat again. Rather than suffering consecutive defeats and damaging your confidence, he'd rather avoid strong opponents and choose to win other matches."

"It's realistic and reasonable, but it's also a naive idea that I don't believe in my own horse girl."

The pure white racehorse girl commented on Shibasaki's thoughts.

"Therefore, persuading, or even forcing you, the trainer, to participate in the Zhongjing Cup under the guise of cooperation, is the first thing you must do."

"As for the second matter..."

As he spoke, Golden Victory pointed to himself, a confident smile spreading across his face.

"In order to defeat Oguri Hat and keep her in Kasamatsu Tressen, so that she can continue to pursue your so-called target, Tokai Darby."

"I sincerely beg you to let me teach you how to defeat that monster. That's the second thing you need to do now."

...

Chapter 3 [4K] Kasamatsu Tressen Academy

After the match, Golden Victory returned to Kasamatsu Tresen Academy to the tune of Fujimasa's March.

Looking at the somewhat dilapidated scenery of the local academy, Golden Victory revealed a treasure-discovering look in his eyes, and even excitedly picked up his own camera, taking pictures of the surroundings from time to time.

The school statues appear somewhat dilapidated due to lack of maintenance.

The campus scenery is more of a muddy field landscape than a lush green campus.

A storage room suspected of being occupied by students.

The practice track has almost no grass left.

The teacher focused on introducing the blackboard content about "local competitions" in class.

The student cafeteria was once again overwhelmed by Oguri Hat's performance, which had just ended in the winner's stage.

And not far away, the trainer Kitahara was bowing and apologizing to the cafeteria lady.

......

"Suck......"

"Mmm, Kasamatsu Tresson really does have a lot of abnormalities!"

"Ha! Work done! Now all the rest of the time is my free time!"

"Um... excuse me, Ms. Golden Victory, what was the purpose of taking pictures all over the campus just now?"

After hearing what she said, Shibasaki, who had been accompanying Golden Victory all the way, asked her in confusion.

As for Fujimasa, as a student of Kasamatsu Tresen Academy, he naturally had to attend school according to the schedule during class time.

After putting away his camera, Golden Victory turned to look at Shibasaki directly behind him. Shibasaki stared at him with wide, fierce, bright red eyes, but didn't say anything, which made Golden Victory feel a strange sense of dread.

After holding this terrifying posture for about ten seconds, Golden Victory finally turned his body around and answered Shibasaki:

"Hmm? I guess you could call it a kind of site visit."

"Local inspection?"

"It's just a task that was forced on me during my suspension by some guy who always uses idioms in his conversations. It's okay, it's okay~"

Having said that, Golden Victory glanced at the time on his phone and answered Shibasaki without waiting for a response.

"Well, it's about time. Mr. Shibasaki, could you please give me the relevant information about March? That way, I can make a judgment and arrange the subsequent temporary training content."

"Ah... okay."

Despite relying on his knowledge of horse racing girls and his extensive experience, Golden Victory did not believe that his judgment was likely to be seriously wrong.

Just to be on the safe side, it's best to ask for a little bit of information.

Yes, the previous assessment of Oguri Hat was surprisingly incompetent, even though few people knew about it.

Golden Victory doesn't want to be embarrassed again...

After some time, it was located in the club training space assigned to Shibasaki.

The Fujimasa March, marking the start of club time, has arrived in the spacious classroom.

Facing the pure white horse girl before him, Fujimasa March solemnly bowed at a ninety-degree angle in a sincere manner.

Even Shibasaki had never seen Fujimasa so serious.

That's true...

The last person who made her this serious was Oguri Hat, who won once in her debut competition but refused to admit her victory and kept chasing after it.

This must be the inherent respect that Fujimasa March has for the strong.

In this competition, she lost the victory to Oguri Hat.

In order to catch up with the opponent again, and in order to win the next game.

And also to prevent what this senior racehorse enthusiast said from coming true...

She had to seize this opportunity to ask the Central Racemaid for guidance.

"Senior Golden Victory, please guide me!"
