I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

"Moreover, sometimes old habits are quite ingrained, so you have to learn them repeatedly and keep pulling them back before they can be firmly established. Then you need a period of familiarization and training before you can put them into actual combat."

"I thought that was too much trouble, so I was thinking of simply finding a way to make you forget or disrupt your original habits, and then directly reshape them. This would not only be faster, but also have immediate results. It's just the process..."

Shinji Kitahara shrugged and looked at Special Zhou before speaking.

"As you can see, it may be even more difficult than the traditional kind."

After hearing Shinji Kitahara's words, Hotsuki trembled and spoke in a shaky voice.

"So... to what extent will it go?"

"Didn't Little Chestnut Hat tell you?"

"...Become a cripple?"

"They're basically the same."

Shinji Kitahara nodded.

"At first it will be running, then walking, and then even your hands and tail will start to change... I suggest you find a friend in advance and tell her to take care of you during this period."

Actually, he should have said this earlier, but after thinking about it, he decided to give Ms. Cao a chance to help her, in order to further reduce the probability that she would target him.

Even though she's called "Yu," it's still better to be on guard. Who knows if she's a hidden dual-wielder?

To Kitahara Shinji's delight, Kusakami Tobi, though probably unaware of his intentions, immediately seized the opportunity.

Before she could even speak, Zhou spoke up first.

"Then I'll ask Suzuka if she has any free time recently."

Suzuka, whose full name is Silent Suzuka, is Special Week's roommate and best friend, and is the last remaining member of the Trason Album trio.

Moreover, while speaking, Zhou Yi directly sent a message to Silent Suzuka via Line.

After Kusakabe expressed his willingness to take care of her, Silent Suzuka also replied.

Unsurprisingly, the answer was affirmative.

"Thanks, Xiaocao, but Suzuka's help is enough, so I won't trouble you."

Zhou was especially happy.

While Grasshopper's facial expression remained normal, his eyes were noticeably dimmed.

Tsk tsk.

Shinji Kitahara, who was watching the drama unfold, smacked his lips twice, thinking to himself that he had done his best, and there was nothing he could do if the opportunity he was given was not to be used.

On the other side, the Emperor of the East Sea was unaware of the relationship between Grasshopper and Special Zhou, and did not think much of it. However, after listening to Kitahara Shinji's words, he became puzzled about another matter.

"Trainer, I have a question for you."

"what is the problem?"

"What if you disrupt your original running habits by following your method, but fail to learn a new running style?"

"Well, about this..."

Shinji Kitahara pondered for a moment.

"It's probably similar to those people in the hospital who have been paralyzed for many years and suddenly regain their mobility."

The Emperor of the East Sea raised an eyebrow: "What if Special Week doesn't learn it?"

"Nothing unexpected."

Shinji Kitahara said earnestly.

“As long as she follows the training plan I gave her, she will definitely recover within two weeks and completely master the new running style.”

Actually, even if Special Week doesn't learn Kitahara Shinji, it's not a big deal. His unlucky system might not be good in other aspects, but it still has plenty of various items.

Moreover, because he is capable enough, he rarely needs to use the contents inside, and the amount of stock inside has reached a terrifying level.

Although the quality of the items inside is not high, and only the stamina recovery items are barely acceptable, there is a saying that quantity leads to quality.

Moreover, even without the system, Treson's medical technology is no joke, and there's even the double-edged sword that is Alice.

With his own abilities, let alone being unable to walk, even if she were injured by a large truck, as long as she still had a breath left, he could bring her back to normal and restore her to her original state within a week.

Not to mention that, in addition to these conventional methods, he also held a card in his hand that even he found a bit outrageous.

Although it may not seem to be of much use in the current situation, it can serve as a last resort.

So Shinji Kitahara really wasn't worried at all.

The Emperor of the East Sea couldn't understand this, but seeing that he didn't continue to answer, he turned his gaze to Special Zhou.

"Aren't you worried about this special week?"

"Huh? What are you worried about?"

After replying to Silent Suzuka's Line message, Zhou looked up, his face filled with confusion.

"I'm not worried that you won't be able to learn it and end up like, well, someone who's been paralyzed for years..."

Zhou's ears twitched slightly, and he hesitated for a moment.

"I am a little worried, but since Mr. Shinji said it's okay, then it's definitely okay."

Special Week is somewhat similar to Little Chestnut Hat; both love to eat and dislike thinking. Moreover, they are notoriously bad at studying, ranking among the worst students in the entire Tresson.

Simply put, she's an idiot.

However, compared to other idiots, Zhou is particularly good at one thing: she knows she's not very bright and she listens to other people's advice.

Especially after meeting Shinji Kitahara a few years ago and going through some things together, her trust in Shinji Kitahara can be said to be at its maximum.

Not to mention training, even in everyday life, if Shinji Kitahara tells her to do something, she will do it without any doubt.

She even managed to adhere to dietary restrictions with great difficulty—which was almost a miracle for her.

Because after that night a few years ago, she became convinced that whatever Kitahara Shinji said was right, and she just had to obey him unconditionally.

The Emperor of the East Sea was unaware of their past and naturally could not understand this relationship of trust.

And it's not just Special Week, Eclipse, Oguri Hat, or even Alice, who just joined the team in the last two days...

Apart from that outsider, Kusakabe, it seems like everyone else is closer to her than she is to Kitahara Shinji.

"I'm clearly the one who should be taking care of you, you idiot trainer. You should take a look at the invincible emperor more often."

She murmured something unconsciously.

Shinji Kitahara looked at him in confusion: "Your Majesty, did you just call me?"

"......No."

She raised her head, her expression as lively as ever, and even smacked her lips twice.

"I've just finished my honey drink. Trainer, could you go buy me a cup? I just finished training and don't want to move."

"No, go buy it yourself."

Shinji Kitahara flatly refused; he dared not try to win this person's favor.

"Hey, stingy."

Shinji Asahihara made a face, and the Emperor of the East Sea walked off the field, his expression gradually turning dejected.

Well, there's nothing we can do about it.

After all, it was an agreement made in the beginning, so he couldn't interfere with her, and he confirmed it several times afterward.

Does she regret it? Definitely a little, but if she had to do it all over again, she would still make the same choice.

Compared to Shinji Kitahara's care, she still wanted the president's approval more, and...

"If I can win, Trainer-san... will definitely pay more attention to me, right?"

As the girl's figure receded into the distance, her faint words dissipated in the wind.

It left no trace.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Pink is a Safe Color

After the initial complex and chaotic training, everything else went much more smoothly and simply.

After receiving the new running method and training plan, Oguri Hat's learning process went very smoothly because of his previous foundation.

Apart from having Shinji Kitahara guide her for half a day at the very beginning, she could basically practice on her own the rest of the time. All I had to do was occasionally point out her mistakes and correct some small movements.

It was a little difficult on that week, especially as her studies progressed, her movements became increasingly inconvenient.

By the third day, not only could he not walk, but even when he ate, his hands were trembling slightly as he held the utensils.

Fortunately, on the second day of her training, a flat-chested horse girl with carrot-colored hair came to help her; this was Silent Suzuka.

They were helping each other walk and feeding each other, they seemed to have a very good relationship.

For some reason, Grasshopper, who was all alone to the side, had a somewhat lonely look in her eyes ever since she arrived.

As for the solar eclipse, it's the same as always.

Moreover, as time went on, it seemed that more and more people thought she was the team's trainer.

Recently, people have even started asking about the trainer's name and wondering why they haven't seen her on the staff roster.

As for the Eastern Sea Emperor, her recent behavior has puzzled Kitahara Shinji. He feels that she seems to be talking to him more often lately, but he can't come up with any concrete evidence.

And thinking about it carefully, although I haven't tried to win her favor, we've known each other for so long and chatted quite a bit. We can be considered friends, so it's not strange that she talks to me a few more times, since she's usually very active in the team.

So Shinji Kitahara didn't pay much attention to this little thing.

But the last one, Alice, has a more complicated problem.

Shinji Kitahara has quite a few items, but the only useful ones are those that restore stamina and heal injuries, and even those injuries that have been recently physically damaged can only be healed.

It's not entirely useless for old injuries and illnesses, but it can only temporarily improve a person's physical condition and alleviate pain to some extent. That's all it can do.

Alice's problems are mostly long-standing issues that have been accumulating for years and are deeply ingrained, which greatly reduces the effectiveness of any items used, making it better not to use them at all.

"Your most important task right now is to find a way to adjust your lifestyle, eat on time, and eat in the cafeteria. Stop with your instant noodles and nutritional supplements, stop staying up late, train according to the plan I gave you, and also..."

Shinji Kitahara rambled on and on, and then Alice shook her head after listening.

"I can not do it."

This is the truth.

Although she appears mysterious, terrifying, and omnipotent to outsiders, Alice is actually quite useless when it comes to daily life.

If it weren't for a friend helping to take care of her, and the student council occasionally lending a hand out of pity, she might have starved to death, let alone her current physical condition.

"Then why don't you take care of me, Guinea Pig?"

She tilted her head, a smile on her face, her red pupils flashing with inexplicable emotions.

"If you think the lab is too far, I can stay in your dorm, okay?"

"It's a beautiful thought."

Shinji Kitahara rolled his eyes at her.

Just kidding, doesn't he know what she's up to?

If he were to actually move into his dormitory, it's likely that every sip of water he drank would contain 100% Elixir, and there wouldn't be a single drop of water in his body during the autopsy.

More importantly, taking care of people, especially in situations where even the smallest details require close attention, makes it much easier to gain their favor than eating or drinking.

It's fine to ignore little kids who don't understand anything, or even gluttonous idiots like Oguri Hat Special Zhou, but it's better to ignore someone like Alice.

He agreed to help Alice with her troubles, but only out of duty as a trainer. He had no intention of sacrificing himself for her, since in some ways this woman was even more troublesome than Rudolf.

Fortunately, he believes he hasn't won over Alice so far, and their relationship remains at the level of a mad scientist and a lab rat targeted by the mad scientist out of curiosity.

As long as you maintain this level of stability and avoid making any rash decisions, things should remain relatively stable.

"Then I'll find someone to help me."

Shinji Kitahara made his decision and immediately thought of a candidate, then strolled around the campus.

It's not here, it's not here either, over there... um?

After searching, Shinji Kitahara found his target in the shadow of a green belt.
