I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

"What I mean is, what do you think of me?"

Looking at the dazed Shinji Kitahara in front of him, Rudolf licked his lips, absorbing the remaining taste, his eyes seemingly burning with fire.

“My dear Kitahara, trainer.”

Chapter 274: The Emperor of the East Sea Jumps on His Horse

Strange, where are the president and trainer-san...?

After the race, the East Sea Emperor, who had won without any suspense, stood at the finish line, constantly turning her little head, trying to find the two figures.

Strangely, in the past, when she competed, although the president wouldn't be in the audience due to her own fame, he would usually find a place where she could easily see her after the competition, and then give her some affirmation after her victory.

But today, not only was the president nowhere to be found, but even the trainer Sang was nowhere to be seen. She searched everywhere, from the stands to the trainers' stands to some more secluded corners, but still couldn't find the two of them.

Was she watching the broadcast in her room to avoid being discovered...?

Although the absence of the two slightly dampened the joy of victory, it was not a big deal after all. After searching for a while without finding them, the Emperor of the East Sea stopped searching—maybe she simply hadn't found them yet?

However, just as the Emperor of the East Sea gave up the search and wanted to prepare for the next stage of the victor's contest.

The other contestants, who had inexplicably huddled together after the competition and were watching the East Sea Emperor whisper among themselves, seemed to have reached some kind of consensus after a while. They slowly walked over to her and tentatively spoke.

"Your Highness, hello..."

"Ah, hello."

The Emperor of the East Sea responded with a smile.

"can I help you?"

"Um, that..."

The horse girl hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking.

"I heard your trainer is that Kitahara trainer, so I wanted to ask about him..."

Hmm? I wanted to ask about Trainer-san? Could it be the horse girl that Trainer-san used to take care of?

Because Shinji Kitahara doesn't shy away from his past, the younger members of his team know that he used to take care of many horse girls and that he has many potential rivals.

So when the horse girl in front of him stopped asking about the trainer, the East Sea Emperor's eyes immediately became wary, but he did not refuse.

"What do you want to ask?"

Upon seeing the wary expression on the Emperor of the East Sea's face, the horse girls, for reasons unknown, began to whisper amongst themselves again, which only intensified the Emperor's vigilance.

"It's just some training-related stuff..."

The horse girl who asked the question paused for a moment, then slowly spoke.

"I've read some articles about Kitahara trainers before, and I noticed that the horse girls in your team seem to be very strong. So I wanted to ask how you usually train them, and if you have any tips or tricks..."

"Of course, if this involves your team's secrets, or if it's inconvenient for you to share, you can just pretend I didn't ask..."

Hmm? Is it just about training?

Upon hearing that it was just a training issue, the Emperor of the East Sea breathed a sigh of relief.

"There's nothing wrong with talking about this. Trainer Sang often helps other trainers and frequently shares his training insights with others..."

She paused for a moment, then continued.

"However, although there's nothing I can't say, I'm not sure how to express it to you, because I feel that Trainer-san is no different from other trainers during training..."

"If I had to nitpick, it would be that trainer Sang does a better job on the details, such as correcting certain movements, and when developing training plans, he tries his best to adjust the intensity of the training according to our situation in order to maximize the effectiveness of the training..."

"Is this so..."

The woman who asked the question nodded and then spoke.

"I heard that your team's training intensity is higher than that of ordinary teams. Is that true?"

"That is indeed true."

The Emperor of the East China Sea nodded.

"As I just mentioned, our trainer, Mr. Sang, adjusts the training intensity according to our situation to maximize its effectiveness. Therefore, the training intensity has been continuously increasing. Currently, compared to other teams, our team's training intensity is about two to three times that of theirs..."

The Emperor of the East Sea didn't think there was anything wrong with this, after all, although the training intensity had increased, Shinji Kitahara had done a good job with the remaining supporting measures.

In addition to specialized running techniques, there is also regular care and a combination of folk remedies to restore physical strength and energy.

With so many items in place, although the intensity of the training increased, their experience did not decline; in fact, they felt even more relaxed than before.

However, when these words were heard by others, especially by Ma Niang who did not attend school at the Treson headquarters, they sounded rather strange.

Chapter 275: Heavy

The winners' stage is over.

After happily finishing his dance and chatting with the other horse girls for a while, the East Sea Emperor hummed a little tune and skipped back to the lounge.

That was a beautiful victory! Although we're still a long way from an undefeated triple crown, and I can't thank the trainer yet, how about trying to get some 'reward' from this win...?

Thinking this, the Emperor of the East Sea pushed open the door to the lounge, but before he could say anything, her nose twitched and she blinked.

Strange, there's a weird smell in this room, and it feels kind of familiar...

Although she found the sudden smell a bit strange, she was in high spirits after winning the game, so she didn't dwell on it. She then looked at the two people inside the room, intending to take the opportunity to go over and act cute.

But it would have been better if she hadn't looked. Once she did, the Emperor of the East Sea noticed that the two people opposite her were in different positions than before she left. Not only were they farther apart, but the atmosphere between them also seemed somewhat subtle.

Shinji Kitahara seemed to be in a bad mood. He had been keeping his head down before she came in, and after she came in, he only looked up at her, without glancing at Rudolf even once.

As for Rudolph, although she managed to keep her expression normal and looked no different from usual, the East Sea Emperor, who had been following her around like a shadow for years, still noticed something was off about her.

For example, her movements would sometimes be slightly stiff, her eyes would occasionally flicker and look away, and at certain times, a blush would flash across her face that she had never seen before, and her gaze would always avoid Kitahara Shinji.

"Um, Trainer, what happened while I was leaving...?"

The Emperor of the East Sea asked quietly, but Rudolf, who was standing nearby, still heard her question and his ears perked up instantly.

When asked by the Emperor of the East Sea, Kitahara Shinji remained silent for a moment, then sighed and reached out to rub her head.

"It's nothing. I was just chatting with the president earlier, and I told her about some problems I'm currently facing. She helped me solve them, and we also had some disagreements on certain issues..."

A disagreement? Did they have an argument?

The Emperor of the East Sea looked at Kitahara Shinji with some worry, sniffing the faint scent of Rudolf on his body, as well as some exposed, shallow but not yet faded marks. He couldn't help but suspect that the two of them had probably not just been arguing, but might have even come to blows.

Seeing that her gaze was focused on those marks, Shinji Kitahara sighed softly and pinched her little cheek.

"Alright, don't worry, the matter has been resolved. The president and I only had a slight disagreement, it won't affect anything... But for you, having won the Yayoi Prize, have you decided what kind of reward you want?"

award......

Upon hearing Kitahara Shinji mention this, the Emperor of the East Sea's eyes lit up, as he was looking forward to taking this opportunity to make some requests that would allow him to get closer to his lover.

But at that moment, the subtle atmosphere between Kitahara Shinji and Rudolf after entering the back room suddenly flashed through her mind. She swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue, and after a moment of silence, she slowly snuggled into Kitahara Shinji's arms and whispered.

"I want you to reconcile with the president, trainer-san, is that okay...?"

What a wonderful boy!

Upon hearing the Emperor of the East Sea's speech, Kitahara Shinji was so moved that he almost burst into tears.

He's been incredibly busy lately, but even under these circumstances, his former devoted girlfriends have all "betrayed" him.

Although the usual help hasn't decreased, and they've even become more proactive in helping him after noticing how busy he is, the regular 'physical check-ups' alone are enough to give him a headache.

In this situation, Rudolf, whom he had always regarded as a "good brother," had just "betrayed" him, causing him to momentarily question the meaning of life.

But at this moment, the emperor stepped forward and proved with his actions that there are still pure and caring women in the world, which immediately made him feel better.

It wasn't for nothing that I spoiled her...

Thinking this, Kitahara Shinji reached out and pulled the Emperor of the East Sea into his arms, speaking softly.

"Your Majesty, it's alright. Didn't I just tell you? There's no conflict between me and the guild leader, so you don't need to worry..."

"But......."

"Nothing to worry about."

Shinji Kitahara rubbed the East Sea Emperor's ears affectionately.

"These marks on my body are just from when we were dealing with the problem. The chairman and I only had some minor disagreements, at most a little tiff, but we didn't argue. You don't need to worry."

After a pause, Shinji Kitahara continued.

"By the way, I remember you mentioned before that a pretty good arcade just opened near Treson, and you really wanted to go, but you haven't been able to because of training... How about we go there for a day?"

After a pause, Shinji Kitahara turned to look at Rudolf beside him and spoke with a smile.

"How about the three of us go together?"

Although it was still a little awkward, Rudolf did not refuse Shinji Kitahara's invitation.

As for the Emperor of the East Sea, seeing that the three of them could go out together and he could also take the opportunity to get close to Shinji Kitahara, he certainly couldn't refuse, so the matter was quickly settled.

However, just as the three of them made their decision and were about to leave the stadium, Donghai Emperor, who had barely sat down in the car, suddenly changed his expression.

"Um, Trainer, President, wait a minute, I think I left my dorm key at the competition venue..."

Perhaps because she was too happy after winning the game, she kept skipping and jumping while walking, and she didn't realize that her dormitory key had fallen out of her pocket at some point.

"Shall we go with you to look for it?"

Rudolf asked.

"No need, I can find it myself and I'll be right back."

After saying that, the Emperor of the East Sea jumped out of the car and ran into the arena.

However, after entering the arena, the East Sea Emperor did not directly search along the path he had taken. Instead, he first went to the organizers to ask if anyone had seen a silver-white key. After confirming that no one had, he asked to see the surveillance footage.

The Emperor of the East Sea had a simple idea: a simple search would be too time-consuming and could easily be overlooked. It would be better to check the surveillance footage of her jumping around, since it wouldn't take long and would be more efficient.

After discussing it, the organizers did not refuse the request from the Emperor of the East Sea.

Although the venue doesn't have much surveillance footage to protect the guests' privacy, and theoretically it's not open to the public, Donghai Emperor is a star player who just won the match, and he's just looking for a key. So, if he only needs to look through a few minutes of footage, there shouldn't be any problem.

Then, led by the organizer's staff, Donghai Diwang quickly arrived at the monitoring room. He then fast-forwarded through the video of himself jumping back after his victory and quickly located the location of his lost key.

But if the key's location is only locked, the next development will probably be that the East Sea Emperor gets the key, goes back happily, and then goes to the arcade with the two of them to have a great time. After having a good time, they will return to the academy.

The problem is, while watching the surveillance footage and searching for her keys, she also noticed something else.

Hmm? So the trainer and the president were watching her match from this spot?

Because that corner was relatively remote and difficult for people to notice, the venue organizers were worried that someone might encounter an accident there, such as a sudden heart attack, and because it was difficult to call for help due to its remote location, so they set up a separate camera. Although it wasn't very clear, it still captured the figures of Shinji Kitahara and Rudolph.

Although the image was somewhat blurry, and the two were on the edge, with Rudolf even disguised, most people shouldn't have been able to tell them apart.

However, as someone who was always by their side, even though the image was a bit blurry, the Emperor of the East Sea still easily recognized the two people's identities.

Although he recognized the two people, the Emperor of the East Sea did not pay much attention to the scene at first. After all, it was not the first or second time that the two people had secretly watched her competition from the corner. There was nothing strange about this.

The problem is that just after the Emperor of the East Sea locked the time of his lost key and pressed the pause button...

As she confirmed the location of the key and prepared to leave to retrieve it, she took one last look at the footage from the secluded security camera, and then her steps faltered instantly.

That is...

The Emperor of the East Sea widened his eyes, then immediately turned around, adjusted the recording time slightly forward, and stared intently at the footage from the secluded camera, watching the movements of the two people frame by frame.

They chatted casually, turned around, and then slowly approached...

Holding hands, a wall slam, and finally they all overlapped...

Once, twice, three times...

The Emperor of the East Sea repeatedly watched the blurry image, trying hard to discern something from it, as if he were trying to prove something, and the pressure on the buttons in his hand unconsciously increased.

Unfortunately, she was too familiar with those two people. Even when faced with scenes that were difficult for ordinary people to recognize, and no matter how much she tried to deceive herself, she couldn't.

President, Trainer Sang...

Just as the East Sea Emperor was watching the scene over and over again, her eyes beginning to grow numb, her cell phone rang.

"Your Majesty, haven't you found the key yet? Why don't we go and help you look for it?"

silence.
