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

Chapter 258 The Finale of the Competition Will Eventually Arrive

Game start!

In the very instant the gates opened, many of the female horses on the field had already begun to respond to the situation!

The Emperor of the East Sea must be dealt with!

We have to deal with Oguri Hat!

In addition to these two types of information, there may also be some chaotic battle information that is misleading but will immediately lead to failure.

It's as if a racehorse girl has become the attack commander, causing the racehorses to instantly reach a consensus and directly attack the target!

With everyone working together so closely, the Emperor of the East Sea immediately guessed who had done it.

Tsk, it must be Megumi Ardan...

However, even if the other racehorse girls are inferior to the top three popular racehorse girls, they are actually not much different and will not give the other party a chance to think or react.

Immediately, a massive and powerful barrage of techniques, seemingly conceived over a long period, rained down on the two of them without mercy, like a hail of bullets with an aimbot activated.

Moreover, the commander, in the imagination of the East Sea Emperor, was Megumi Ardan's horse girl.

She was still the kind of person who didn't give her opponent a chance to neutralize her force, and she managed the timing of all her power deployments to an almost terrifying degree.

As the torrential rain struck, the two racehorse girls were instantly subjected to an unreasonable violence built from momentum and skill!

As for this deliberately crafted grandeur, Golden Victory, who was sitting by the railing, naturally noticed something was amiss immediately.

"...That's a bit much, isn't it?"

She knew this was someone's deliberate act, and what she had worried about had finally come to pass.

Fortunately, or perhaps unfortunately, both horse girls managed to weather the initial wave of pressure and skill by harnessing the energy of the audience, and immediately adjusted themselves to their weakest point.

However, to other racehorse girls who knew about or mastered the techniques of using momentum, it looked as if the two racehorses had been beaten up by various momentum techniques.

"Victory Sister..."

"It's alright, the person is fine. It's just that this kind of attack was a bit too extreme in a certain sense."

"Seriously, how come someone always pulls this kind of thing in the most crucial final match? White Disaster."

Even though he doesn't have much presence in his position, Rokuhei Ginjiro relies more on his experience and intuition as a trainer to sense that something is wrong.

Golden Victory: "Hey, you know what, it's only just begun. But what you said, Liuping, makes a lot of sense..."

"I had already considered the possibility that my opponents might gradually improve in this area, but I never expected to encounter such an outrageous thing in the final stage of the competition for newcomers."

"I'll destroy it myself when the time comes, so you won't have to complain."

Destroying a momentum technique is not actually that difficult for a gold-winning team.

No need for suppression, no need for restrictions, no need for power.

All she needs to do is find the problem and crack it, that's all...

"However... even in the future, I think there won't be many horse girls who can do this."

As if by intuition, after calming down from her initial anger, Pure White Horse Girl, faced with the scene of being scolded by insiders at the beginning, expressed her thoughts with some emotion.

Unlike the female horse trainers and a few other trainers who noticed something amiss, this appearance produced a completely different kind of charm in the eyes of the audience.

"Alright! The race has started smoothly. All the female racehorses have started running smoothly according to their respective racing strategies and are gradually adjusting their speed."

"It seems that everyone is tacitly agreeing not to use any aggressive techniques at the first moment. Let's wait and see what kind of race the race girls will bring us!"

......

It seems that because the sounds from outside the track were still audible to those inside, or perhaps because after the first wave of attacks, no other racehorse girls wanted to do something similar again.

It must be said that for those horse girls who lack the aura, skills, and strength, their current actions are more of a subconscious choice to actively cooperate in attacking either the East Sea Emperor or Oguri Hat as their target.

However, among them, Super Cove is one of only two racehorse girls who did not choose to use momentum techniques to attack their targets. The other one is naturally Megumi Ardan, who focuses on directing the timing of other people's momentum techniques.

Was the speed not noticeably affected...?

When he immediately unleashed a terrifying, powerful, and dramatic series of attacks that could be described as tragic and heroic, it was indeed a test of his heart and conscience that Megumi Ardan was too much of a challenge.

But... such emotions are indeed a test.

After passing the test, one's heart becomes more resilient, and one's will is tempered into greater strength.

However, all these efforts were merely counteracted by the opponent's extra aura.

I was shocked, but also glad I made that decision.

If he hadn't done it, Megumi Ardan really couldn't have figured out how the winner of this competition would appear as a possible third person.

As he continued running, his thoughts raced, but he soon noticed a wry smile creeping across his face as he ran.

Oh dear... is it really necessary to treat me like this?

Two very distinct senses were constantly capturing him, and once these senses were established, they had formed a kind of marker-like content.

She, Megumi Ardan, has been targeted by the other two popular horse girls on the field.

Drip, drip, as I run, I shake off the sweat produced by the pressure.

It was locked, but it didn't react at all.

It's like branding or marking someone who is destined to be punished, or giving people a sense of warning.

Megumi Ardan had no idea what was going on.

But she was quite certain that these two horse spirits definitely didn't want to have any more opportunities to act like demons.

However... even without the aura and techniques, it's actually a pretty good situation for me.

It's not two thousand, it's not two thousand four.

This is the chrysanthemum viewing area, which is for long-distance races, the 3000-meter track...

Hmm, it feels even better now.

Others might not be aware of the situation, but Oguri Hat knew it very well.

Wearing that armor might seem like a terrifying threat, but in reality, it was a last resort.

It can be utilized in essence, but it is basically impossible to control. Even the off-field gold victory is hard to imagine, so it is naturally not a god-like riding action that a small chestnut hat can do, even if it is a sudden inspiration.

These are shackles, but they are shackles that can protect oneself.

Without it, those consecutive attacks would have definitely pushed me to the very back.

but......

But why, why did Megumi Ardan use this move right from the start?

This might be the only problem with the chestnut hat.

Being as straightforward as she is, she believes that if this tactic had been used from the very beginning, everyone would have been on guard, and as they are now, they would have simply kept a close eye on the opponent and not given her any chance to make a move.

So, why?

Because these are long-distance races, they have now become crucial for each horse girl to conserve energy and adjust the pace of the race.

But... Oguri isn't too happy with his current position.

The speed increased, and even though it was in the middle of the group, the horse girl with the tuft of hair quickly found a track between the inner and outer lanes that she could overtake.

Let's get used to the conditions of running shoes during the race first.

Wearing specially made racing shoes, Oguri Hat sprinted forward at an accelerated pace, immediately attracting the attention of the audience and commentators!

"Ah! Oguri Hat is accelerating! She seems to be trying to get to the best position to showcase her skills before entering the first corner!"

"Oguri Hat is moving forward and is starting to show signs of breaking away from the main group! Meguro Ardan and Super Little Bay have also broken away from the group, while the East Blue Emperor's player seems to be still in the group without making any further moves."

The commentators' tone clearly revealed some subjective emotions in their commentary, but these emotions didn't seem to pose a problem, especially for the female riders on the field.

Because they are now trying to adapt to the new rhythm they are in.

The actions of a racehorse girl can affect the overall course of the race to some extent, and Oguri's actions are a case in point.

Therefore, many top female racehorses or current star female racehorses are starting to actively use or learn how to stabilize or even control the rhythm of the entire race.

However, Oguri Hat herself didn't have much of an opinion on this move. She was more focused on the advice her friend, Shining Radiance, had given her, telling her to take advantage of the opportunity to get her shoes used to the track.

Well, after all, the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Competition venue is a track that's more than one lap long...

"The competition...it was alright, I guess."

"Little Glorious, is your secret weapon reliable?"

Golden Victory suddenly became curious and asked the newly emerged radiance that had come to his side.

"Everyone has adjustable running shoes, it's just that the ones Oguri is wearing now are the more finely adjusted kind, so Golden Victory senior, you don't need to think too much about it."

She seemed quite relaxed, showing no signs of tension despite the casual questions from the pure white horse girl.

"Yeah, don't be nervous. I'm just a little bored because the pace of the game has slowed down and I need to find someone to chat with."

At the first bend, the top three are Mejiro Ardan, Oguri Hat, and Super Bay, followed by Yae Musou at the front of the group and Tokai Emperor at the back.

"Hmm, so what you just said, Golden Victory-senpai..."

"Yeah, the start was indeed chaotic, but not terribly chaotic. It was just tough on our two popular horse girls, hehe."

Shrugging, since New Glory has questions and speculations, Golden Victory has no reason to hide what happened at the start of the game.

"Hmm...is that so?"

The response was somewhat unexpected, prompting Pure White Horse Girl to glance at the newly radiant light while simultaneously checking the race venue for any scenes that required close attention.

Hmm, no, we're going through the first bend, nothing interesting here.

"What's wrong, Little Glorious? Are you worried about Little Chestnut Hat? I don't think you'd be like that, so it should be..."

"Hmm, Golden Victory-senpai, I feel like I should give it a try."

Well, the shoemaker who initially joined the logistics team did so not only because she wanted to help Oguri Hat, who had come to the central government.

Shining Radiance's dream is to become a racehorse girl and debut as one.
