Uneasy daily life

Yukino Yukinoshita silently made a calculation.

I'm almost out of fuel... cough cough, Sakurajima is almost unable to run anymore.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Mai's Miraculous Resurrection!

Hoo, ha...

Is there something not quite right?

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) sprinted down the track, with no one ahead of her. The wind, however, suddenly became heavy, constantly slapping against her face, forcing her to squint.

Upon reaching a bend, Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) slowed down slightly to prepare for the turn, when she suddenly heard someone's loud commentary.

"Second bend! Yukino Yukinoshita is preparing to slow down for the bend, but the slowdown seems too much! Yumiko Miura is rushing up from the side! Is she going to overtake?! Is she going to overtake?!"

Yumiko Miura strode after her, gradually catching up and passing Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) bit by bit. She glanced sideways at Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) beside her, whose forehead was sweating, and smiled slightly, revealing a victor's smile.

Disappear from your own sight, you loser!

"Oh my god! She's overtaken! Yumiko Miura has passed Yukino Yukinoshita to take first place! Was she really that fast? No! Yukino Yukinoshita has slowed down, and the crowd behind her is closing the gap little by little! The track and field team's amateur 9th dan peak master is in third place and is rapidly closing the gap!" The white figure loudly commented, "The race isn't even halfway over! Yukino Yukinoshita is already in a serious crisis of losing speed!"

A member of a track and field team: "..."

His explosive bursts were decent, but his stamina was lacking, which was definitely his own fault.

Yukino's expression was subtle. Did puberty syndrome really cause a body swap, or did it simply turn her into a different person in appearance?

Winning first place in the sprint shouldn't be a problem, but in the long-distance race... girls who are willing to sign up for the long-distance race are generally confident in their physical strength and won't want to suffer. Based on their physical strength, they would probably come in last place.

"Third, fourth, fifth... Is it over? Is it over?! Is Yukino Yukinoshita's journey coming to an end?!" The white figure cried out in anguish, holding up a paper megaphone. "Will this reckless escape and exhaustion bring Yukino Yukinoshita to her end?!"

Yukino's father couldn't help but shout, "Yukino! Do your best!"

Bai Ying changed the subject: "Alright, now let's focus on the current number one, Yumiko Miura. After successfully overtaking Yukino Yukinoshita, Yumiko Miura has maintained her lead steadily. Behind her are strong athletes from the track and field team who are almost professional level. Can she maintain her lead to the finish line? Can she fulfill the tragic wish of the Miura family? The G1 event, the Women's Darby at Soubu High School, is in full swing!"

Yukino's father glared at her: "Aren't you going to cheer for Yukino?!"

"I'm a professional commentator. A professional commentator needs three qualities: to seize on trending topics, to ride the wave of trending topics, and to create trending topics!"

Bai Ying excitedly ran towards the track, continuing to commentate loudly: "Miura Yumiko, who successfully overtook Yukino Yukinoshita, seems to lack fighting spirit. Could it be that her only goal is Yukino Yukinoshita, and she doesn't care about the sacred race? She's about to be overtaken. Is Miura Yumiko going to follow in Yukino Yukinoshita's footsteps?!"

On the track, Miura Yumiko's fighting spirit increased, and she quickened her pace, trying her best to maintain her first place.

What a blunder! Was Yukinoshita just a silver spear and a candlestick? I felt so strong, but I ran out of energy before even reaching the halfway point of the race.

It's not that others have gotten faster, but that my own speed has slowed down considerably...

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) adjusted her breathing and tried to move her increasingly heavy legs. If only she had known this would happen, she would have started slowly instead of sprinting to widen the gap and take the lead from the starting line to the finish line... Forget about winning the race in a cool and stylish way, she was already in last place at the finish line.

"Is Yukino Yukinoshita, on whom everyone has placed such high hopes, going to fall here?!"

A familiar voice came from the side.

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) glanced sideways and saw a white figure running alongside her on the grass in the inner circle of the playground, muttering words to herself.

"You must be exhausted?" Bai Ying sighed softly, talking to herself. "A burning weariness has been injected into my chest. I'm giving up on my lingering pain and clutching my ankles. Every part of my body is saying that this is enough... Nothing in this world is difficult if you're willing to give up. But have you thought about what you'll face if you choose to give up?"

"..."

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) didn't reply, of course. She was in a long-distance race! There were still several hundred meters to go, and she was about to run out of energy. If she spoke again, she was afraid she would fall!

The haters are ridiculous; they didn't even use Killer Queen.

Bai Ying vividly described, "You'll face Yang Nai's teasing, but she won't go too far; she'll mostly take it for granted. You'll receive enthusiastic comfort from your older brother. Maybe, to take care of your feelings, he'll run around buying you drinks, saying some words of praise, and maybe he'll even act like a clown, pointing fingers at the other contestants to get you to complain, afraid that you'll be immersed in the feeling of failure—isn't that amazing? Even though it's a failure, you get Dad's love... Sigh? Thinking about it this way, giving up is totally fine; it's all a good thing."

Good for your size!

The father in the snow isn't my father. Just thinking about that scene makes me want to die!

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) tried to speed up and pull ahead to shake off the white figure.

The white figure darted up again, sighing deeply.

"Do I still have enough stamina? Can I overcome my own body? Is this enough? Have I done enough? In any competition, someone always loses, why can't it be me?" Yukino Yukinoshita thought to herself, and her speed gradually decreased...

Yukinoshita Yukino (Mai): #!

accelerate!

Incidentally, it exceeded one person.

"Oh my! Yukino Yukinoshita has unleashed her competitive spirit! Her stubborn personality is showing, and she's successfully overtaken the leader. Can she reclaim her number one spot?!"

The runner who was overtaken was a little confused. She looked at the two runners who were neck and neck, full of questions. What kind of new way of cheering was this?

……

Ha...ha...uh...

Miura Yumiko couldn't help but gasp for breath, even though she knew it would make her even more tired, but breathing through her nose was too difficult... This situation felt strangely familiar? A pool is two-thirds full of water. A pipe fills the empty pool in five minutes, and a pipe empties the full pool in three minutes. Will a person drown?

Huh? Is that the problem?

Yumiko Miura just wants two more nostrils, wishing her lungs could breathe on their own.

What a blunder! If I'd known Yukino was such a loser, I shouldn't have tried to take first place at the start. It's not so easy to slow down and then pick up speed again. The girl in front of me is from the track and field team; she might not be a professional, but I'm not even an amateur...

"The snow beneath the snow has caught up with the force of a raging storm!"

ha?

Yumiko Miura glanced back subconsciously and first saw a white figure running and explaining on the grassy path, then she saw Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) covered in sweat and with a murderous expression.

"Closer! Against the direction of the sun, Yukino Yukinoshita's shadow closes in on Yumiko Miura's footsteps! What a powerful final sprint! The distance is closing, closing rapidly! Five meters! Four meters—she accelerates again! Her shadow has already passed Yumiko Miura, how far can she be from surpassing her?! Unyielding, never giving up, truly the lone wolf of Soubu High! Sprint! Only the summit is the resting place of the soul!"

His speech was fast and clear, full of emotion, and his content was argumentative and full of points to criticize, clearly indicating that he was a professional commentator.

The murderous aura intensified.

Yumiko Miura quickly turned around and indeed found that Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai)'s shadow had surpassed hers. Damn it... what a load of rubbish! Is she out of her mind?! She's clearly exhausted, how could she possibly catch up?!

The footsteps behind her grew closer and closer. Miura Yumiko felt quite helpless. She couldn't compare to him in terms of relationships, since he and Hayato were childhood friends. She couldn't compare to him in terms of academics either. She had already tried her best, but she still couldn't reach the top three. Now she couldn't even beat him in a race.

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) moved slightly to the side, gradually catching up with Yukino and advancing side by side.

Yumiko Miura gritted her teeth slightly, but her legs betrayed her and went weak; she was about to collapse...

Bai Ying also caught up from the inside of the grass and loudly explained next to Miura Yumiko.

"Here it comes! Just like the protagonist in the story, she was first knocked down by the villain, then mocked by the villain, and then, with love and courage, she unleashed an even stronger force, turning defeat into victory in one fell swoop. The villain shouted that it was impossible, and was defeated again! Yumiko Miura, who had lost her fighting spirit, was surpassed by Yukino Yukinoshita. Is she going to have an oyster (can't she)?!"

Who said it's going to fail!

Yumiko Miura's face was filled with murderous intent. She stomped her foot hard on the ground and tried her best to turn the corner. At the same time, she stubbornly blocked the distance that had already been opened up by half a body length. Not only did this prevent Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) from opening up the distance and turning to the inside, but it also made her seem to be closing the gap and overtaking!

"Oh! Oh! Oh! Miura Yumiko used her determination to win and didn't get overtaken in one fell swoop! She's up! She's up! As expected of the Tiger of Soubu High! The majesty of the overlord cannot be challenged. True victory belongs to me. Anyone who disobeys will face defeat! Miura Yumiko, declare the victor!"

The murderous aura intensified.

The two were locked in a fierce battle, advancing side by side without giving an inch, their expressions hardening and contorting to varying degrees!

Thanks to the extensive promotion by the commentators, the ongoing sports festival has garnered significant attention from many students.

Running is so much fun for girls! Let's run! Let's run!

"Will it be Miura Yumiko, who embodies the way of the conqueror and is unparalleled, or Yukino Yukinoshita, who, despite a defeat, still strives for the top?! The final 100-meter straight track!"

Bai Ying also excitedly provided commentary on the final sprint, while also acting as a commentator to keep up with the two.

"Miura Yuko! Yukinoshita Yukino! Miura Yuko! Yukinoshita Yukino! Miura Yuko! Yukinoshita Yukino!"

The intense repetition, the quickened pace, the swirling wind on their faces, the running faster and faster, the opponent closing in closer and closer, both Miura Yumiko and Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) were lacking oxygen and distracted, and before they knew it, they were locked in a head-on confrontation, neither willing to give an inch.

There's no real reason to win, but if someone has to lose, why not you?

Who isn't a proud and arrogant young woman?

Most of their murderous intent was directed at the commentators outside the track, while a smaller portion was directed at their relentless opponent.

The story of "Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors" and "The Battle of the Golden Apple" illustrates that sophisticated strategies often require only simple ideas.

As expected of me, the Great Demon King of Soubu High School.

As Bai Ying sighed, she chased after the two people, one in black and one in gold, whose hair was flying everywhere, and rushed towards the finish line.

"Crossing the finish line—!! It's Yukino Yukinoshita, the lone wolf of Soubu High!"

"Yukino under the snow has miraculously come back to life!"

The two crossed the finish line, slowly stopped, panting heavily, the pounding of their hearts drowning out the noise around them.

Bai Ying shouted at the top of her lungs, then looked at the girl next to the finish line and clapped to congratulate her: "Let's congratulate this amateur player who can compete with professional level for first place!"

"..."

The person who came in first place felt a bit superfluous; it was better to lose than to win.

Miraculously revived, turning defeat into victory, Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) defeated Yumiko Miura and won second place.

"Ha... Huff, cough cough..."

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) gasped for breath, supporting her limp body, her head slightly bowed, her bangs obscuring her face, as she slowly walked towards the white figure.

Miura Yumiko was quite angry before she realized that she had fallen for someone's provocation. However, her friends surrounded her and offered her water and towels. In addition, she was too tired to cause trouble for Bai Ying.

Beneath the snow, give the white shadow a good thrashing!

Unbeknownst to her, Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai), who was being given high hopes, had only taken a few steps closer when she exhaled a breath and her legs suddenly went weak and she staggered forward, on the verge of collapsing.

The white figure swiftly reached out and grabbed the other person's left arm, then braced it against his arm to support his body.

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai)'s right hand moved with lightning speed, precisely pinching the white figure's cheek and pulling it out slightly with a bit of force. Her smile was unfriendly, and she lowered her voice, which was filled with murderous intent: "Black Fan!"

"Let go! Let go now!" The white-faced figure tensed her facial muscles, twisting her neck in an attempt to break free from the merciless two-finger strike. "My face is going to fall off!"

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai), panting and gritting her teeth, said, "Perfect, cough cough, let's see how many faces you still have!"

Yukinoshita's father, who was approaching with a glare, held water and a towel in his hand: "Traitor! Let go of your face!"

The white figure replied with a lisp, "I... I'm not advanced enough to evolve my face to have this kind of function."

Even with tongue ulcers, professional actors can still speak clearly.

Congratulations on getting second place.

Yukino Yukinoshita (Yukino), who had quickly come up, pushed past the white figure with a tense face and supported Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai): "I'll take you to the infirmary to rest for a bit. Shiro-kun is going to run the 3,000 meters soon, right? Hurry up and get ready."

Can my body really run 1500 meters like this? Am I that strong?

Yukino's feelings are a mix of subtle emotions.

"Here, Yukino, wipe your sweat quickly, there's water here."

When Yukinoshita's father had a sudden stomachache, he glanced at the white figure and handed him water and a towel. Before he could even reach out to help, Yukinoshita Yukino (Mai) took the towel, wiped her face, and tried to stay hydrated despite her exhaustion.

"What are you waiting for, Father? Help me take her to the infirmary."

Yukino Yukinoshita and her father helped Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai), who was exhausted and somewhat dazed, away.

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) felt that something was wrong, but she was too tired to figure it out.

"Get some rest! We're waiting for you!"

The white figure waved vigorously, bidding farewell with a beaming smile.

Great! The troublesome executive committee chairman has disappeared...

Now it's the Vice Chairman's turn!

Bai Ying strolled back to the information desk, picked up the microphone, and chuckled.

He grasped power and authority.

Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Commentator Takes to the Track!

The health care room where the school nurse is never there.

Under the snow, the father was showing concern and preparing to find the school nurse, whose whereabouts were unknown.

The staffing at Zongwu High School is still not perfect. There should be at least three health care teachers: one on duty, one off duty, and one as a substitute!

"Don't be so nervous, I'm just a little tired."

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) was forcibly put on the bed and said speechlessly, "Excessive concern can make people uncomfortable."
