I'm Ornn, and I'm about to be beaten to my knees by the Man-eating Horse Girl!

"Plop! Plop! Plop!"

With a few splashes of water, the fine coffee brewed at the Manchester tea house had turned into brown sugar water.

Only then did Alice look up. She smelled the liquid in the glass and frowned slightly.

Then she stuck out her tongue and gently licked it, and her furrowed brows finally relaxed.

"Hmm, it seems a little lacking. I'll add some more sugar; that will make it taste better!"

As she spoke, she reached out and pulled out a few more sugar cubes, preparing to toss them into the brown sugar water.

This time, Manchester Tea House didn't indulge her friend. She reached out and grabbed Alice's wrist, her grip so strong it startled the other woman.

The golden eyes, never extinguished, shone brightly in the dimly lit laboratory. Along with that golden glow came an unseen pressure.

The messenger of the night said, word by word, "No, you are not allowed to add, sugar."

"Okay, okay, I won't add it, I won't add it!"

Under pressure from her best friend, Alice finally gave in.

She reluctantly picked up the coffee, and drank it with a pained expression.

After she finished drinking, Manchester Tea House took the cup and instructed her, "I'll bring over some food from the cafeteria later tonight. Make sure the door is closed during the experiment, okay?"

"If you let a spark fly out and ignite those things, I can't guarantee I'll come and clean it up for you every time, understand?"

"Alright, alright, I'll remember that, Master Tea House~~"

Alice waved her hand, then turned around and began fiddling with the white stone in her hand.

Shaking his head, Manchester Tea House rinsed his coffee cup and left the laboratory.

This morning, she even called her mother, who lives abroad, to ask if there were any prominent families with the surname "Ornn," but the result was somewhat disappointing.

Even with her mother's extensive knowledge and connections, no one could find a name similar to "Auen," let alone a family with a long and distinguished history in the horse racing industry.

However, this mastermind, who once had extensive connections in Japan, uncovered some insider information, such as the fact that the identity of this person named Orn seems to have been fabricated through multiple channels.

Specifically, the institutions that issued him passports, driver's licenses, and other documents that could prove his identity were all related to Japanese horse racing families.

But this alone won't yield any valuable information. It's not uncommon for large families to secretly train trainers and give them new identities.

As you can see, every graduation season, many trainers at the central level change their names and leave their posts, disappearing from public view as if they've vanished into thin air.

Creating a fake identity is really no big deal. It's as serious as Oguri Hat eating an extra bite of rice today. It's not a big deal at all.

'Alright, since even your mother can't find out your background, I'll investigate it myself.'

'How mysterious! Appearing in this world so suddenly, casually producing national treasures, and despite being a rookie trainer, so easily forming a team and gaining the trust of its members—this is something many veteran trainers can't do.'

"Although I can be so blunt that it can be annoying, and I often say things like 'out of sight, out of mind,' I'll help someone without hesitation if I really see them in need."

"What a hypocrite! You're like a celestial being descended from the heavens... Let me see what your background really is!"

Central Tresen, South Playground

Ornn frowned, realizing that things were not so simple.

He didn't spend much time in the student council president's office, only about two hours.

But when he returned to the playground, he saw a scene that was completely unexpected.

Four corpses lay scattered across the playground. Fujimasa lay peacefully on the track, while Oguri Hat lay prone on the track, his right hand outstretched forward—a posture that looked strangely familiar.

Aldan, on the other hand, lay down in a more ladylike manner. She leaned against a large tree beside the playground, her eyes glazed over as she shook her head, looking like she was experiencing motion sickness.

Qingyun Tiankong, who had just joined the team, collapsed in the place furthest from the main group. She lay sprawled on the ground, as if she had been thrown away by something at great speed.

One, two, three, four... wait, where did the missing person go?

Orn looked around and then spotted a piece of deer mane tail in the grass beside the track.

He hesitated for a moment, then shouted at the tail, "Radiance? Are you still alive? If you are, answer me!"

The tail immediately began to wag excitedly from side to side: "Brother Step, I am Stark!"

"My savior! Please help me, I can't get out!"

Orn quickly grabbed her struggling legs and pulled her out with a sharp tug.

Looking at the fawn's face covered in dust and leaves, he asked, "Radiant, how did you get in? What happened here? Why is everyone..."

Shining Radiance shook her head, then reached out and grabbed Orn's hands, interrupting, "My benefactor! Something terrible has happened!! Someone's come to cause trouble!"

Orn frowned and asked, "A challenge?"

"Yes, our benefactor! Someone's come looking for trouble with us!"

The newly radiant figure quickly complained to Orn, "She said she's a senior at the school, and that the training tasks you assigned are like child's play. Why don't you just run with her?"

"The march immediately refuted her, and as a result, we started the simulation competition in a confused state!"

Orn glanced at the group of people lying on the playground, raised an eyebrow, and said, "So, you mean that even if all five of you went together, you couldn't beat that guy, and instead, she took care of him all by herself?"

"Yes! Our benefactor!! It's not that we didn't try hard enough, it's just that the enemy was too strong!"

The newly radiant figure cried out, "My skills, instead of slowing her down, actually made her even faster! She could even use my moves to suppress me!"

"During her final sprint, the sky above the march was directly blasted away by the aura of her domain, and Aldan, unable to resist her power, was blown off the track to the trees."

"Only Oguri lasted a little longer, but her explosive power in the final sprint was too terrifying. Even though Oguri used all her strength, she couldn't defeat her!"

Ornn nodded solemnly, then looked at the newly formed radiance: "And what about you?"

"Me... well..."

The newly radiant light glanced furtively at the ground, and said in a voice barely audible, "Before she activated her domain, I was already blown away into the bushes by the wind pressure from her acceleration..."

Ornn's lips twitched, but before he could speak, a hand touched the newly radiant head and gently patted it.

"Hehe, you did quite well too. This is the first time I've seen a horse girl combine so many disgusting... uh, disruptive skills together,"

"The last time I encountered this situation was when I was fighting Rudolf. Her [Possessiveness] was terrifyingly strong, it was as if I was actually chained up."

"Don't worry, the kids in your team are all fine. They're just a little exhausted from fighting someone like me for the first time."

"They should be fine after resting for a while."

Orn looked in the direction the sound came from and saw a horse girl with the same hair color as New Radiance standing behind her.

Perhaps because she had just run at full speed, her long hair was disheveled and draped over her shoulders, and the small white hat charm on her right ear was blown inside out by the wind.

Her emerald green eyes were fixed on the bewildered Orn. ​​She asked with a smile, "What? Weren't you just fawning over Rudolf like that? How come you don't recognize me now?"

Looking at the dashing horsewoman in front of him, Orn racked his brains for a long time, but couldn't find a name that matched his memory.

The horse-woman looked at the trainer in front of her who seemed clueless and said sarcastically, "Didn't you just tell Rudolf that the student council under my rule was a stagnant pool, rife with resentment?!"

"Wow, look at how Chairman Rudolf governs! It's a vibrant and thriving place, much better than mine!"

Reminded by the other party, Orn nodded in sudden realization, then cupped his hands and said, "So you are Representative Qianming, senior. My apologies for not recognizing you. I have long admired your name!"

Qianming's lips twitched. What do you mean, "I've heard so much about you"? That blank look on your face when we first met—how could you possibly know what I look like?

And what's with the ***? You little brat, are you trying to make fun of your auntie?

Just as she was about to lash out, the person in front of her changed the subject, looking aggrieved, and said, "Alas! Senior Qianming, you don't understand. I was forced into this situation!"

"If I hadn't needed her help, and if that emperor hadn't been so autocratic, only listening to good advice and not bad, why would I have resorted to such a desperate measure?!"

Representative Qianming frowned and asked, "Explain in detail?"

Chapter 244 Exploiting Bugs to Quickly Farm Skill Books

Representative Qianming's early return to school was originally intended to prepare a surprise for Rudolf.

After all, the other members of their senior citizen group were busy with their own things at the moment. Maru Zenki apparently went to Europe to further his racing skills.

For some unknown reason, Narita Shirajin, on the recommendation of trainer Miyazaki Hidetoshi, went to train at a dojo that had recently gained fame.

Qishao took leave to rest before the summer training camp and is probably still enjoying the sun and sea breeze on Hawaii Island.

It seems that Katsuragi Ace is farming in her hometown, saying she's going to bring back some vegetables and fruits grown by herself, and won't be back for a while.

Megumi no Mine hasn't been to school for a long time. I heard she's recently become obsessed with making her own winning outfit and even asked her friend, [Tianyu the Magician], for tips on making clothes.

Throughout the entire school, only Representative Qianming could help Rudolf with his paperwork.

Although she was also inefficient at handling documents, at least someone came to help Rudolf. The emperor would probably be very grateful and thank her profusely.

With this thought in mind, Representative Qianming quietly arrived at the tightly closed student council gate, preparing to break in.

"Alas! Chairman, think about it. Under your wise rule, the entire Central Teresen is a vibrant place where everything is thriving. This is all thanks to you!"

"And look at your predecessor, that absurdly acting president. Under her rule, the entire central government was basically paralyzed. Public resentment was boiling over, and the people were living in misery!"

"I have also listed her ten major crimes, which I will tell you slowly. First, Representative Qianming committed the crime of arrogance. She broke the rules, went out without permission, disturbed public order, and cut in line."

"Next up is Representative Chiaki, who committed the sin of gluttony. She demanded that the cafeteria provide her with special nighttime desserts, and just to satisfy her own selfish desires, she wantonly ordered the staff around!"

"Then there's Representative Chiaki, who committed the sin of jealousy... she..."

The male voice inside finished reciting the so-called ten major crimes in a rather loud voice, which made Qianming, the representative outside the door, harden his resolve—in fact, his fists hardened.

Just as she was about to break down the door again, Rudolf coughed twice, interrupting the man.

"Trainer Ornn, isn't that a bit too much?"

Ah~~~ Rudolf, you really are my best friend. You must have been unable to stand by and watch this person slander me, so you took action, right?

Hurry up and use your unparalleled power in the central government to dismiss this rumor-monger! Hey! If it were you, you would definitely do that, right?

A smile appeared on Qianming's face as she pressed her ear tightly against the door, eager to hear the emperor's furious rebuke.

"Well, although what you said was a bit harsh, it was still a fairly objective assessment, so I won't punish you."

"Thank you Lord for your grace!"

"Hehe, no need to be so reserved, my dear minister Aoen. Your courage to speak frankly and impartially, and your fair dealings, are truly commendable and worthy of being promoted!"

"Good! Great good!"

Representative Qianming could hardly believe her ears; she couldn't help but slap her left cheek hard.

After feeling the burning sensation on her face, she finally realized that she had not misheard and that it was Rudolf himself who had said those words!

"You local tyrant! I knew he had ulterior motives when he ousted me from power!"

"Hmph! Now that you have power, you've gotten carried away and even brought in a male concubine as your secretary, huh?!"

"How can the school maintain a good atmosphere when surrounded by such scoundrels?!"

"On the surface, they seem like a loving family, but behind each other's backs, they're talking badly about their sisters! They deserve to be punished!!"

That being said, Qianming, who had already been ostracized from the center of power, had no way to retaliate.

If they were to break down the door now and confront Emperor Rudolf, the only one who would end up being the powerless former student council president would be kicked out.

But this anger couldn't be kept bottled up; keeping it inside would only make him angrier.

Representative Qianming stroked her chin and recalled, "Orn... I feel like I've heard that name before. He's the trainer for Dolan's team, right?"

"I never expected this. Back at the academy, all the trainers praised him so highly; he's truly a handsome and talented man, my idol!"

"Hmph, I never expected him to be such a despicable sycophant who fawns over his superiors!"

"Rudolf, since you're so close to him, I'll go get the knife first!"

"Yes, first find Dolan's team, then I'll nitpick and make some unreasonable demands, and appeal to the chairperson so she can severely punish this scoundrel!"

Without hesitation, Representative Qianming immediately left the student council building, which was filled with evil. Relying on her accumulated reputation within the school, she quickly learned the location of Dolan's team's training from the surrounding pony girls.

At this moment, Dolan's team was still jogging leisurely, at a pace slower than an old lady in a wheelchair, which made Representative Qianming frown.

She casually stopped the sharp-looking silver-haired girl among the five and asked, "You're members of Dolan's team? Where's your trainer?"

Representative Qianming originally thought that, given his prestige in the central government, the girl in front of him should be able to recognize him immediately.

Therefore, instead of introducing herself, she chose to directly verify the other party's identity.

But to everyone's surprise, the girl bluntly asked, "Are you a student at the school? What do you need from our trainers?"

Qianming asked in confusion, "You don't recognize me?"

"I don't know her, Oguri. Do you know her?"
