Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 344: Realize Your Dream
As a music restaurant, blank musical notations are naturally prepared.

Lu Duo's strategy of concealing the truth from both sides was successful because similar activities often took place here, and not only were there simple musical notations, but other supporting equipment were also readily available.

So, when the host heard that Kitahara needed some musical notations, he was stunned at first, obviously not expecting that there would be such an operation of writing songs on the spot.

But on second thought, the Emperor President said that everything had been arranged, so he put on a smile and quickly went backstage to get what Beiyuan needed.

There was a piano on the stage, which is an indispensable instrument for a Western band. After thanking the host and taking the five-line musical notation, Kitahara lay down on the piano and started writing.

During this period, I occasionally confirmed some music theory content with the pianist and other musicians.

His knowledge of music is very limited.

The lyrics of the song you want to copy should be remembered.

I can also hum the melody.

But he wasn't sure what instrument was used in the original song, he just felt that it should be possible to play it on the piano.

Therefore, after the simple score is written, whether it can be played and sung, and whether the remaining electronic sound part can be played, these all need to be confirmed one by one with professionals.

The restaurant's band performers are not top-notch, but they are quite professional, and the music they play before and after the event is very pleasant to listen to.

At this moment, although the musicians were a little surprised at Kitahara's behavior of writing songs at first, they then started discussing it with a smile.

As they discussed the matter, a cautious look gradually appeared on their faces.

Following Kitahara, Maruzenski didn't care at first. She just stared at Kitahara's hands as he wrote from time to time.

Occasionally glance at Kitahara's serious expression.

It's not that she hasn't seen Kitahara with this expression before, but that was mostly when he was at work, preparing various training sessions and arranging various competitions for his racehorse girls.

Or watch game videos or talk shows together.

Apart from that, the trainer seemed very casual.

He doesn't smile much, but he's not as serious as when he's working, with a slight frown on his face all the time.

It has the connotation of being old-fashioned and honest as what people say.

But at this moment, the same expression in my heart has a different meaning.

She knew that the song she was writing was for herself.

Even if the person who wrote the song had different ideas than what she had in mind.

But after all, it is written for myself.

It seemed like a good start to a relationship, just like the morning dramas I've watched and the topics that girls have talked about before.

In those dramas and topics, many relationships always have such scenes at the beginning or during the passionate period.

In the past, when she saw or heard something, she would find it interesting, sometimes a little funny, and she would think it was cliché, common, and old-fashioned.

After experiencing it myself, I realized that it is indeed cliché, common and old-fashioned.

But I really hope that time will just stop at this moment, or that this song will never be finished.

Then she could always immerse herself in the unusually hot mood at the moment.

In this state of mind, she didn't care how the musicians responded to Beiyuan.

However, the customers and fans in the distance noticed it.

"Strange...it's been so long, why hasn't it started yet? Did they encounter any problems..."

"It seems... Mr. Kitahara is writing a song? No way..."

"It looks very similar. He has been chatting with the pianist and others, and writing something..."

"Are you really going to write the music on the spot? Isn't that amazing?"

"It should be said that it is romantic, and I write songs for them... But if it is written for President Maruzen, I don't think I have heard of anything between President Maruzen and Mr. Kitahara..."

"Shh... It's not easy to guess about this kind of thing..."

“But you seem to be looking forward to it…”

The topic in the lobby on the first floor gradually deviated.

The second floor was leaning against the edge of the ring, but the topic had not changed since Kitahara took over the musical score.

"Mr. Kitahara...can you still write songs?"

Noguchi Kenpei was very surprised and looked at Luduo's symbol to verify, "I am also paying attention to the trainer's interview.

"From my impression, this trainer seems to be very busy?
“Various domestic competitions, especially the Classic Triple Crown.

“I also went abroad twice.

“It seems like there is not much time to learn music?

"Of course, I might have learned it while coaching the winners. I know that some trainers have good musical skills."

After making a guess, he was puzzled again, "But...

"Mr. Kitahara seems a little nervous.

“Generally speaking, if the music level is good, the stage performance should be somewhat stable, right?
"From what I can see now, it seems like this is his first time on this kind of stage?"

The Rudra symbol is not known how to interpret it.

On weekdays in the academy, I spend quite a lot of time with Beiyuan.

She has also been paying attention to the situation of this trainer.

Therefore, she was very familiar with Kitahara's musical attainments.

To put it simply, if you have a basic understanding of music theory, you won't be completely confused when you see Oguruma and the others singing and dancing.

His singing was also OK. She had heard Kitahara sing in karaoke once or twice.

But that's all.

So, he is writing songs now...?
Luduo himself became curious, but he did not reveal his thoughts when he spoke.

"This should be his first time on stage like this. In the past, he was more likely to accept interviews or something like that."

After explaining, Lu Duo paused slightly and changed the subject, "Actually, Beiyuan is usually quite low-key."

“Low profile…?”

Just as he was about to say that he had seen many interviews about Kitahara, Noguchi Kenpei changed his mind, smiled and nodded, "It's indeed a bit low-key.

“Over the years, I have seen many outstanding trainers, especially those who became famous at a young age.

"Young people, once they become famous, can't help but want to tell others. It's human nature and it's hard to avoid."

I don't know whether he said this intentionally to warn the younger generation, but when Noguchi Kenpei said this, Lin Xizhi and the two young men beside him all looked tense and their expressions became more humble and respectful.

"I accept all kinds of talk shows and entertainment activities. I mean, I have seen many trainers who became famous at a young age."

Noguchi Kenpei continued, sighing, "But people's time and energy are limited.

“How can I train an outstanding horse girl but spend all my time on becoming famous?
“There are quite a few horse girl trainers who have left the horse girl industry because of this.”

With a sigh, he looked down and looked at Kitahara who was concentrating on writing music, and nodded slightly, "Compared to those trainers, Mr. Kitahara is really too low-key.

"I was going to say that he has participated in quite a few interviews, I have watched more than a dozen of them.

“But as a trainer, he always has to show up for the Yayoi Sho, Satsuki Sho, Japan Derby and Kikuka Sho, the classic triple crowns.

“The Emperor’s Spring and Autumn Viewing Ceremony, Takarazuka, Prince Takamatsu, he is the team leader, the club president, he still has to show up.

"Plus other things that cannot be shirked, so what I mean is that Mr. Kitahara's so-called many interviews are completely unshirkable."

After summarizing, he looked at Lu Duo with a smile, "So, what President Lu Duo meant is that this trainer is usually very secretive?
“Always giving people surprises?”

"Mr. Noguchi is right."

Lu Duo nodded and smiled, "Well, Beiyuan rarely shows up in public.

“But his talent in training is really beyond words.

“Many things that I think many horse racing girls can’t do, or races that are hard to win or can’t be won, he can do, and the horse racing girls he coaches can win.

"If I talk about it more, I'm afraid there will be no end to these things."

Just like Noguchi Kenpei just did, Lu Duo looked down and said, "In short, if it's Kitahara, I don't think I would be surprised if he did something new.

“Even if it’s writing a song… huh?

"seem……

"It's already been written?" Looking at the center of the stage, Lu Duo blinked in surprise, and then his eyes focused.

On the side, Kenpei Noguchi was stunned for a moment, and looked down quickly in disbelief.

There were three other musicians like him. Like Noguchi Kenpei, they were all surprised that such an outstanding trainer like Kitahara would suddenly have the idea of ​​writing songs.

Moreover, the speed is so fast.

The rest of the horse racing ladies, customers and fans, didn't have so many thoughts.

They just looked at the stage curiously, and watched Kitahara let out a long sigh, nodded to several musicians, then looked at Maruzenski beside him with a smile and stretched out his hand.

"That's about all we can do. Time is too short, so..."

Holding a somewhat sloppy piece of musical notation, he stretched out his hand and said half a sentence when Kitahara was stunned, "…What's wrong, Maruzen?"

After asking twice, Maruzenski finally came to his senses.

She was just staring at Kitahara's face and didn't notice what was happening.

"Hmm... hm? What's wrong?"

She blinked and quickly saw the simple music sheet handed to her. "Is it finished?"

She couldn't wait and snatched the music score away before she could finish her words.

He held his breath and stared at each character or note as if he was trying to recognize a mistake.

“…Ah, I guess…”

Somewhat surprised by Maruzenski's abnormal behavior at this moment, Kitahara scratched his head awkwardly, "I just said that time was a bit tight and I wrote it too hastily.

“I don’t know if you can understand.

"If you don't understand, I'll revise it.

"If you can understand and sing it, I'll write another copy. After all, this one is written..."

He wanted to say it was too sloppy, because the sheet of music that Maruzenski snatched away was indeed full of traces of erasures.

There was nothing he could do about it. He had no musical theory skills and was transcribing from memory, so he had to verify a lot with the musicians and make constant revisions.

But he didn't finish his words.

"Excuse me..."

Without looking at Kitahara, who was still holding his breath, Maruzenski glanced at the pianist, and walked over without permission, somewhat impolitely.

"I think it's okay for me to play and sing by myself."

Then, there was a surprised sound.

In a flash, there was a slight friction sound between the heavy wooden piano chair and the ground.

A calm yet passionate piano melody sounded.

"Ah...uh..."

This time, Kitahara once again felt Maruzenski's abnormality.

Then I felt that the song I copied might be a little inappropriate, or too appropriate.

Anyway, the piano prelude sounded for a few seconds. He was stunned for a moment before he quickly walked a few steps to the other side of the stage, picked up the microphone and said quickly: "Sorry, um... kept you waiting..."

He was a little nervous and hesitated a little, which was rare in public.

"Anyway...

""Rage your dream"......"

He only had time to announce the song title before the melody reached his male vocal part.

……

I got no impression (I got no impression)

This town is made by imitation
Wanting your sensation
In this silly simulation
I wanna rage my dream

……

The most famous song in "Initial D" is of course "Deja vu", one of the racing hits.

Another song is "Rage Your Dream", "Realize Your Dream".

When talking about "Deja vu" on the Shinkansen, Kitahara didn't think of this other equally famous song.

But with what I had thought about before, this association came naturally.

After thinking about it, I inexplicably realized that this song might be very suitable for Maruzenski.

Who is more unfortunate: being born without talent or having amazing gifts but never getting a suitable stage in life?

Kitahara is not clear about this question.

But for Maruzenski, there is no way not to feel that she is the latter.

Her dream was just to step onto the stage of the classic competition.

I don’t need good grades, and I don’t care about the most unorthodox ones. I just want to prove that I can do it.

But there is no such opportunity.

So what is the difference between the so-called rules and regulations that bind all of this and the illusions and disguises mentioned by the male voice in "Rage Your Dream"?

It's all just boring, useless and meaningless things.

Well, if it were her, she would have wanted to realize that dream, both in the past and now.

This is what Kitahara was thinking when he thought of this song and wrote down the simple score of the song.

……

I got no impression red's feelings (I didn't leave any impression red feelings)

The streets where people walk through Volkashi are imitations (they are so blurred by the paint that the whole street looks fake)
RealをquestめてANGぶるあなたが (Pursue the truth and hold your head high)

Nearly くによれないほどにアツくなる (blood boiling to the point of being inaccessible)
Feel your frustration and scream

Taste your vibration and feel the vibration yourself
……

Maruzenski's voice is naturally impeccable, whether it is the winner's stage back then or the casual singing in karaoke for fun now, it is always at the level of heavenly sound.

But there is a little tremor at this moment.

But it happens to match the soprano part of the original song.

Knowing the original song, Kitahara could only feel that Maruzenski's singing level was really impeccable.

Also because he was familiar with the original song, he made some changes to the lyrics.

The first sentence of the female part is "Gray Feelings".

But the color that suits Maruzenski is undoubtedly red.

Whether it's because of her beloved red Lamborghini, or her inherent skill "Red Burning Girl" in the original work, or her scarlet victory suit.

This color should be suitable for her.

……

Rage your dream 时を駆け抜けてゆく（burn your dream to transcend time）

风も光満ちてゆく (The wind is gradually filled with sunshine)
Rage your dreamっていることだけを（burn your dream just wait）

Feel the wind, please don't forget to feel the wind.
Rage your dream and continue on the road with no end

Love is in the past, love is rising in the past (I will not look back on love and the past)

ゆけるあなた火いている (Go on, you will be a shining star)
Rage your dream 日本生きている（burn your dream and live in the present）
……

Further down, there should be a part with male voice reciting lines, which is another reason why Kitahara chose this song.

When performing on stage with Maruzenski, the singing is usually a bit inappropriate, so just don't sing, there is no problem with reciting the lines.

But he couldn't pronounce it.

As soon as the first climax of the song ended, a very obvious piano vibrato disrupted the previous performance and solo.

Afterwards, in Kitahara, the accompaniment in the lobby on the first floor, the customers and fans who responded to the rhythm enthusiastically, and the symbol of Ludo, Kenpei Noguchi and others on the second floor of the lobby were all completely unexpected by everyone.

Accompanied by the tremolo of the piano, Maruzenski suddenly rushed out of the Western European Fantasy Restaurant.
