Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 7 Being able to stand up and run is a miracle for me

Oguruma did not go home for breakfast that morning. Kitahara took her to Kasamatsu Tresen College and had a buffet meal in the cafeteria.

The industry related to Uma Musume in this world is huge, and although it is strictly forbidden to set up gambling-related projects in this area, other projects can also obtain a lot of funds.

For example, in terms of peripheral industries, products such as Uma Musume’s game highlights and cartoon dolls alone have an industry scale of over hundreds of billions, and there are even more related training facilities, venues, teaching and training assets.

In this context, as one of the core organizations in the Uma Musume industry, Tresen College will not lack funds for either operation or sponsorship, even for a local college.

This is different from another world. In that world, the "colleges" or stadiums are completely self-sufficient, and many of them go bankrupt due to poor management. This is not the case in this world. Part of the finances of local colleges will be supported by the central government.

So even though it is a buffet, the dishes provided in the cafeteria of Kasamatsu Tresen College are very rich.

This can be seen from the surprise of Oguruma when he came to the cafeteria.

"Really, can I really eat for free? Can I eat without restrictions?" She also made an extremely surprised sound, and there was an incredible sense of happiness hidden in her voice.

As a person who teaches horse girls, trainer is a very important job in this world and it is also a respectable one.

Even at the local Trasen Academy, Kitahara had considerable privileges, free cafeteria meals being one of them, and he could even bring other people with him.

"Of course, I'm a trainer of this academy, and buffets are unlimited. As long as you can finish them, you can take as much as you want..."

Kitahara only explained half of it with a smile, and Oguruma didn't listen at all.

After confirming that she could eat for free without any restrictions, the surprise on her face completely turned into excitement and happiness, and she couldn't wait to go to the cafeteria window.

"Hello, please give me this, this, this, and this...ah, can you give me all of this? Don't waste it. Don't worry, I can finish it all."

It was a moment of carelessness. By the time Kitahara reacted, Oguruma was already sitting at the table with a large plate of food. Behind her, the chef behind the cafeteria window had a dazed look on his face.

Kitahara's expression also tended to be a little dazed, because the amount of food that Ogurimao took was indeed more than a hundred million.

Oguruma is about 1.6 meters tall, which is quite tall for a horse girl. When she sits down, her upper body is much higher than the dining table.

However, her plate was filled with potato pancakes and fried noodles, piled higher than her head.

Not only that, after putting down her plate, she went to the cafeteria window and got a large portion of rice. Not only did she fill the small bowl, she also piled it up high.

This further aggravated the dull expression on the cafeteria chef's face.

Bei Yuan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses, because he already knew the setting of Oguruma. He had seen the appetite of this big eater a few days ago, so he was not so surprised anymore.

Fortunately, this body itself is a trainer, and I have the funding from Tresen Academy to back me up. Otherwise, if I want to teach Little Chestnut, I would go bankrupt just from eating so much.

Smiling secretly, Kitahara also went to the cafeteria window to ask for two potato pancakes, and brought them to Ogurumao.

By this time, Little Limao had already finished about eight or nine potato pancakes and also eaten half a bowl of rice.

"You don't have to eat so fast. No one is going to snatch it from you." Seeing Xiaolimao wolfing down the food with biscuit crumbs and rice grains all around his mouth, Kitahara couldn't help but smile and persuade him.

Xiaolimao suddenly stopped eating.

Under Kitahara's surprised gaze, she turned her head, pursed her greasy lips, and spoke seriously.

"My mother told me to eat well, run well, and become a great horse racing girl."

"Becoming a great horse girl..."

After repeating the sentence, Kitahara's tone became much more serious, "So what does Ogurume think makes a great horse girl?" Kitahara had previously thought of many possibilities on how to communicate with Ogurume, and finally thought of Ogurume's somewhat naive setting, so he decided to just let things take their course.

It would be better for you to take over whatever the other party says.

However, he did not expect that Little Chestnut, who had been very serious just now, suddenly became stunned again.

"The Great Uma Musume... I don't know either."

After her expression turned back to silly, she started eating again and her speech became much more unclear, but her meaning could still be roughly understood.

"Mom told me about the trainer, but... I'm sorry, I don't know anything about the game, Tresen or anything like that."

I don’t know... Well, it’s not surprising. Last time she acted like she knew nothing.

Kitahara was thinking to himself, while Ogurumao was eating and talking:
“I just love running, so my mom signed me up for this school.”

"It was also because I really like running. My mother told me that I could run after joining the trainer's team, so I thought there was no problem."

"So if it's about running, I have no problem with that, Trainer."

Oguruma stopped eating for a moment, puffed out his cheeks like a little hamster, clenched his fists towards Kitahara to express his attitude, and then continued eating.

"Do you like running? Then, why does Little Chestnut like running?"

Although he seemed to get a strange answer from the other party just now, Kitahara felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with this way of communication at the moment.

Apart from anything else, the two of them have clearly just met, yet they can communicate without any obstacles, which seems to indicate that Oguruma is suitable for this kind of communication without any special intentions.

Sure enough, without any hesitation, Xiao Limao stopped eating and looked over at him seriously, his eyes full of sincerity.

"Because I can run, so I like running."

If this logic is explained to ordinary people, they will probably be confused. After all, for most people, running is as common as eating and breathing, and there is nothing to like about it.

I have never heard anyone say that if you can eat, you like to eat, and if you can breathe, you like to breathe.

But Kitahara, who knew Ogurume's childhood from another world, immediately knew what Ogurume was talking about.

He was silent for a moment.

Ogumao did not remain silent. After she finished speaking, she started eating again. However, this time she was obviously not eating as voraciously as before. Instead, she picked up the rice grains slowly and put them into her mouth, as if she had some strange emotion in her heart.

Her tone also slowed down.

“To be able to stand up and run… for me, just that, it’s a miracle.”

“My knees were so weak before that I couldn’t even stand up.”

"If my mother hadn't given up, massaged me every day, and thought of many ways to prevent me from going hungry, I might still be lying in bed now."

“Seeing other people standing up, walking, running, but I couldn’t do it myself.”

"So just being able to stand up and run is a miracle for me."

“So I’m just really happy and really enjoying being able to run, that’s all.”
