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

After all, this person... this isn't the first time he's acted as a radical.

"Because I'm very unhappy with them, and because I think I'm a scumbag who needs to atone for my sins."

Kuronuma is a legendary character, appearing in Uma Musume textbooks.

However, his reputation as a trainer is not very good.

His early training methods were too harsh, which caused many female racehorses to be unable to debut because they could not withstand such high-intensity training.

Or some racehorses may appear to have temporarily improved their physical fitness through training, but ultimately collapse on or after the race.

Retiring prematurely for the sake of temporary glory only results in a few prize money and a body full of injuries, and even retirement is not guaranteed.

Spartan trainer, devil trainer, and even more vicious and cursed names.

These are the Kuronuma that Saima Musume knows.

Ironically, his Spartan-style training methods, after being repackaged by the Horse Girls Association, have indirectly become an indispensable part of the "devilish training" in the racehorse training materials at Treson Academy.

However, he, known as the Black Swamp, did not receive the same glory; he was merely regarded as a counterexample to most trainers.

Upon hearing the other party's reply, Golden Victory smiled and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Ha, I can understand that you hate them, but to act like you're scum is just ridiculous."

"All I can say is... it's rare for you to have such a clear self-awareness, which is great."

As they were talking, a waiter came to Golden Victory's table. She ordered a cappuccino and asked the two of them to order drinks from the café.

However, since it was her first time here, she didn't make any sudden recommendations and instead left the task to the waiter.

Surprisingly, both of them ordered espresso.

When the double espresso was served, the smell was somewhat unpleasant to Golden Victory.

Our cappuccino flavor has been stolen!

I should have just given them all cappuccinos!

This made her tail wag slightly in annoyance, but she maintained a ladylike demeanor and continued talking to the other person.

The situation was serious, and the other party was a stubborn guy.

If these negotiations break down, Golden Victory will be missing a strong partner...

"Perhaps becoming a father has made me more caring towards others, or perhaps starting other careers after being ostracized in the industry has made me understand many things I couldn't understand before."

Now, after being ostracized from the circle, Kuronuma has deeply reflected on his immaturity and mistakes over time.

However, those who were responsible for promoting it in the first place should also reflect on their actions, but now they have disassembled the training method and republished it under a different name.

This was something he found intolerable.

This is trampling on his pride and dignity as a trainer.

Even if it's wrong, it should be rejected!

Instead of simply denying his character and then privately accepting such a training program!

"From boycotting me, treating me like trash, and kicking me out of the trainer circle, to now actually taking away all my training results and then putting them there for legitimate use, continuing to cause hidden harm to the new generation of female racehorses, and even allowing them to use those materials for self-training..."

As he said this, the veins on the man's rough fist gradually became visible.

“I admit that I am the source of the problem, so I want to atone for my sins and change everything that is not perfect.”

"White Disaster, I now approve of your training methods and his training methods. I believe these training methods can be applied to the next generation."

Upon hearing the old man admit his mistake, Golden Victory simply shook his head in response:

"Old Black, you didn't really do anything wrong. The ones who are wrong are those stubborn guys who refuse to change."

“Any training method will change with all the factors of the times. You may be optimistic about my training now, but in the future, my training method may also have some undiscovered risks.”

"At least I have already identified some issues that need to be addressed, so unless it is a racehorse girl under my supervision, I will basically not teach them this series of training techniques and exercise methods."

Why does Uma Musume need a trainer?

Racehorse girls have hands and feet, so can't they train themselves?

Isn't this something you can learn simply by reading more books and watching more instructional videos?

The trainer's main role is probably just to regulate the racehorse girls' emotions, right?

The answer is simple.

This is because a single deviation in those training methods can lead to irreversible or even irreversible consequences.

The trainer's responsibility is to observe all the movements of the racehorses he trains during these exercises and to make the best judgment based on the feedback from the physical data after training.

Then, the training plan is fine-tuned to a certain extent in order to achieve the final result of breeding excellent racehorse girls.

To put it more bluntly, trainers are the lifeline of racehorse girls. Without this lifeline, it wouldn't be surprising if they ended their professional careers one day.

After listening to Golden Victory's objective answer, Kuronuma didn't seem to intend to respond to him, but instead steered the conversation to the main topic.

"Alright, I've answered your question. Now, White Disaster, shouldn't you answer mine too?"

"What exactly did you call me here for today?"

"Is it to seek cooperation with me so that I can find an opportunity for revenge?"

"I only lost my job, and I lost the dignity and pride that are equal to my life."

"But you've lost even more than I have, haven't you?"

It should have been Golden Victory inviting Trainer Kurozuma.

Now that he has spoken his true feelings, the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

Now it was his turn to press her for an answer.

Chapter 48 Keep running for victory

When asked this question, Pure White Horse Girl did not respond immediately.

She simply looked at the man with unusually cold eyes.

Close your eyes.

What comes to mind is an image etched into my soul, one I will never forget.

On the hospital bed lay the elderly man who had regained consciousness.

She stretched out her weak, pale, and wrinkled hand, which was wrapped in various life support devices, and touched the tip of her ear that she was leaning towards.

Through the breathing mask, the person managed a weak smile, panting as he asked if he had completed his daily practice and if he had eaten and slept well.

He also said that once he recovers, he'll ask the Uma Musume Association for leniency in the next match...

He hopes to maintain his winning streak and continue winning.

Even if the world doesn't fully accept the winning formula of the Golden Victory...

The audio and video then quickly disappeared.

Open your eyes.

Despite his complex emotions, he still appeared very unhappy.

But Kim Seung-ri still revealed the answer in her heart.

"Whom should we seek revenge against? Whom should we retaliate against?"

"If you can't even get this straight, then you're just another kind of arrogant, self-righteous, reckless guy who's been infected by arrogance."

To confront the other party directly and without mercy, question and reprimand them.

But this was already the friendliest way Golden Victory could treat the person in front of him.

If it were someone from an earlier period...

Even if the trainer can withstand the kicks from a regular racehorse girl...

Her golden fist is not something you can easily withstand.

"Is it......"

"That's good."

Surprisingly, however, he did not seem to be angry at the gold medal victory statement.

Kuronuma simply took off his sunglasses silently.

After taking off his sunglasses, he revealed a somewhat gentle look in his eyes.

The few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, a testament to the passage of time, made him appear somewhat inexplicably vulnerable.

His tone was no longer as tough as before, but rather carried a hint of composure that came with age and experience.

In that instant, Golden Victory confirmed one thing.

Humans... do change.

"A team must have a sufficiently calm mind."

"In terms of ability, I am confident that I am second to none, but when it comes to composure, I am still aware of my limitations."

He had that kind of temper when he was young, and he became a grumpy old man when he got old.

"As for Bourbon, she is too young to take on any great responsibility, and her calmness is more due to my parenting style, which has left her with a lack of understanding of the outside world."

"Following the master's orders, focus all your efforts on training and racing; nothing else is needed for now."

The person next to him, Miura Bourbon, responded, but the sound made Golden Victory a little embarrassed.

"Could you tell me your reasons for remaining calm? Golden Victory."

Perhaps due to some distrust of the other party, Kuronuma was more afraid that this was a sign of Golden Victory's impending frenzy.

The calmer and more composed a person appears, the more terrifying the madness hidden within them becomes.

Just like that terrible match where she single-handedly widened the gap and it wasn't recognized by the association, that match that made the infamous name of "White Disaster" truly deserved.

"Because he told me to keep running for victory."
