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

Perhaps it was an obsession with victory, or perhaps it was an alarmist claim about the potential for a golden victory.

Or perhaps she didn't have that many thoughts; she simply didn't want to lose to Oguri Hat.

In short, Fujimasa March has launched its operation!

Do you know why you were chasing after her?

"Because only in this way will you have the only chance, when the other side is most relaxed."

"Block her second attempt."

Remembering every word of Golden Victory, from the start of the race to the moment she was overtaken, she remained behind Little Chestnut Hat, constantly accumulating experience.

His mind was already focused like a dagger, waiting to unleash that final blow.

Do not......

not enough!

I can still

It can get even stronger!!!

The effort wasn't about accelerating the legs, but rather preparing to accelerate.

His already sharp eyes were now tinged with bloodshot veins.

As you run, a somewhat blurry, sharp blade hangs in front of you.

At this moment, under the "force" of the Fujimasa March, it was forcibly twisted from a blade into a spear.

This momentum was directed relentlessly at the opponent's Achilles tendon and at the heel about to explode.

"Roaraaaaaah!!!"

I won't allow it!

Get out of my sight!

Accompanied by the roar of the Fujimasa March, which represents projection, and her desperate acceleration as she burned her last bit of strength.

It is not just the sound and the momentum, but more importantly, the spear forged from conviction.

At this moment, it is charging towards the most sensitive spot on the hind leg of the little chestnut hat.

Stab it fiercely!!!

Isn't Chapter Eight pretty good too?

In the final battle on the field, in addition to the clash of speed, physical strength and tactics, mental will also plays an important role.

However, the contest of wills is mostly limited to the subtle interactions between the two female horse-like creatures as rivals.

For the audience and commentators on stage, what they care about most is who will cross the finish line in the end and win.

The moment the commentator saw Oguri's preparatory pose, he had already decided in his heart who the winner of this match would be.

"Little Chestnut Hat, she charged a second time..."

"Wait! Sprint failure! Oguri Hat made a mistake!"

A reversal, a comeback.

What seemed like a predetermined outcome has unexpectedly changed again!

"Whether it's due to insufficient grass acclimatization or excessive tension at the crucial moment, this is a mistake of unknown cause! Oguri has stopped sprinting!"

pain?!

Just as the hind leg was about to be launched and explode, it suddenly felt a tiny, static-like stinging sensation.

Her movements were abruptly halted by this sudden, strange sensation.

Faced with the unexpected, Oguri Hat was at a loss for what to do.

Her trainer did not teach her what to do in this situation.

No matter how intelligent or talented a racehorse girl may be.

It's already quite impressive that you weren't so scared that you lost your bearings or even stopped moving on your own when you encountered this situation for the first time.

As for what they had planned to do, they naturally couldn't continue and had to be forced to stop.

I need to think again about what my next move should be.

And when faced with this kind of stimulation...

The footsteps halted the preparation for the sprint.

However, the steps she had already taken caused her to misjudge her strength, and her steps became somewhat clumsy.

Fortunately, Oguri's reaction was exceptional, and her speed had already been reduced to a safe range. After a brief pause and adjustment, she easily stopped the series of accidents that were about to occur.

Just as Oguri Hat used his talent to instantly control his steps from a low speed to a higher speed within a second and tried to catch up with his opponent.

No one will wait to see her make such a mistake...

A gust of wind, and besides the roar, you could even hear your own heart pounding beneath the wind!

It's the Fujimasa March!

"Oguri Hat has slowed down, but Fujimasa March has already overtaken Oguri Hat!"

Oops......

But just three seconds after Oguri Hat got into a rhythm and was about to accelerate and try to catch up again.

She then realized the distance between them...

It seems there's no need to catch up anymore...

"Fujimasa March has crossed the finish line! They've reached the finish line! Fujimasa March ultimately won by a single horse length! Fujimasa March has won this Chukyo Cup!"

The outcome of the match was already decided at this point.

The difference can be as small as a horse's length, a single thought, or even a single belief.

The outcome of the race between the two female racehorses has changed once again...

"Golden Victory You!"

In the brief period between seeing Oguri Hat's mistake and the end of the match, Rokuhei Ginjiro's expression changed drastically.

"Are you trying to say I lacked tact? Or are you going to say I broke the rules again?"

"You! Using such a move in this place, aren't you afraid of an accident?"

"An accident? Don't worry." Golden Victory shook his head and replied:

"The competition between female race horses reaches a fever pitch in the final stages. Even if you don't understand momentum, as long as you can hold on until the end, the invisible clash of momentum is definitely not weak. Even if similar techniques can have an impact in the final stages, at most they will only cause a loss of speed."

"Furthermore, as the temporary consultant for Fujimasa March, since I was able to help her develop this potential within these ten days, I can naturally confirm her upper limit. I can also obtain Oguri Hat's various data. In my area of ​​expertise, there will naturally be no possibility of any surprises. Otherwise, I wouldn't have taught her this technique."

He was still somewhat indignant when he heard the other party's confident explanation.

"But what you're doing is unfair to Little Chestnut Hat! She's just a child! This must be the first time she's experienced something like this!"

She glanced at the still unconvinced old man and chuckled, "Oh, it's not fair, that's true. But behind your backs, I've done my best to bring both sides back to the starting line."

"I originally intended that the upper limit of Fujimasa's March was not the physical limit she could reach. Under my plan, she would have to perfectly meet various requirements in order to have a blocking effect on the monster Oguri Hat."

"If you launch your momentum too early, the opponent will definitely pause for no more than a second. If you wait until after the sprint to launch your momentum, it will be almost useless. The timing error is so subtle that you have to spend a lot of energy to keep an eye on the opponent's every move and make a perfect prediction."

"She has indeed accomplished both of the two tasks I assigned to March: perfect timing and enhanced momentum."

"In that case, her victory is inevitable."

As he spoke, he ignored the other person.

The pure white horse girl's expression gradually brightened.

"So, racing is really fun. It's also fun to see the racehorse I trained manage to beat the strong opponents she faced."

After saying that, the tall, pure white horse girl stood up, bid farewell to Rokuhei Ginjiro, and prepared to leave the audience.

"Hey, isn't that the way to the athletes' walkway?"

Seeing the direction where Golden Victory had left, Rokuhei Ginjiro asked him in confusion.

"Yeah, I'm not going. I'll leave that place for now. It's almost time for my appointment."

"As for the barn horse girls here, let them deal with them for now."

......

Rudolf and Maru Zensky, who were in the stands, looked slightly serious after seeing Oguri's mistake during his sprint.

"really......"

"Oh dear, this move is very similar to Little Golden's signature move when she first came to the Central Region. Seeing this again now, it's a bit of a nostalgic feeling, but it also makes me a little angry."

Maru Zenki's voice, seemingly sweet with a touch of coquettishness, subtly expresses his inner resentment.

There might not be a chance in official competitions, but there are practice matches or intra-school competitions.

In conclusion, as a "sports car," she certainly has a chance to achieve a golden victory in racing competitions...

Rudolf, on the other hand, is a symbol, although her feelings about him are more direct and practical than those of Maruzensky.

But she remained objective and extinguished her nameless anger after the match.

Rudolf then began to carefully read the data from Fujimasa March and the conclusions regarding the evaluation of Uma Musume herself.

"If this move can be used, then this Fujimasa March is quite capable. There's still room for improvement in his physical attributes. If his grass court suitability doesn't reach the middle level, we could consider him for sand court competitions..."

Finally, Rudolf symbolism draws a conclusion:

"If Fujimasa March is willing to do so, given her current achievements, we have no reason to refuse."

As the president of Tressen Academy, Rudolf's symbolic decisions are almost equivalent to the academy's decisions.

Of course, there is a prerequisite: Fujimasa must submit a transfer application first.

But from Rudolf's symbolic perspective, this is not a problem at all.
