Uma Musume: From Being Knocked Ten Meters Away

Chapter 142 Dream

That day, Northern Black Horse suddenly found the training very strange.

It all started with a routine horizontal wall run.

1.9 meters, 1.5 meters, and 2.4 meters, the three heights that I have practiced the longest have long been engraved in my bones.

She could control the height even with her eyes closed, and run horizontally on the wall the distance specified by An Jingzhen, and almost never fell off the wall.

But for some reason, when I was practicing at a height of 2.4 meters, the familiar wall suddenly seemed endless.

My physical strength also became inexplicably endless.

An Jingzhen didn't shout to stop, she could still run, she ran along the endless wall involuntarily.

At some point, the wall suddenly turned into a runway.

The runway is covered with lush green grass and also has no end.

Judging from the guardrails and spectator seats that appeared on both sides at some point, this place seemed to have become the Tokyo stadium.

Cheers and shouts suddenly became louder, and the exciting commentary also echoed in the stadium.

"After turning the corner, there's the final straight line from which there's no turning back. The straight line of the Japanese derby is very long, and a fateful duel of victory or defeat is about to unfold!"

Very abruptly and naturally, I heard the rumbling footsteps of pursuit behind me.

Give your all and do your best in every step.

The vibration of each step on the grass resonates with one's heartbeat.

One of the footsteps resonated most strongly with the heartbeat, seeming both familiar and incredibly far away.

Before she could figure out whose footsteps they were, the commentator suddenly raised his voice.

“Entering the straight line…The Emperor of the East Sea sprints!

“The Emperor of the East Sea is here!
“The Emperor of the East Sea is exerting his power in the outer realm!
"Only 400 meters left! The Emperor of the East Sea rushed all the way!
"The other horse girls are also speeding up! But...

"The Emperor of the East Sea... has surpassed him!!"

The horseshoes stepped lightly and gracefully on the track, and the figure passed over one opponent after another like dancing on the grass.

The grass rolled up behind him, revealing the dark brown soil underneath, and the air waves carrying grass clippings and soil particles continued to spread.

Seen from one side, it looked like a knife cutting through silk. The figure broke through the air and moved forward towards the finish line hundreds of meters away.

Beibu Xuanju finally understood. Somehow, she suddenly came to the Japanese derby that she had witnessed with her own eyes.

The last time she saw this scene, she was standing in the audience, so excited that she ignored the safety instructions when entering the venue and leaned most of her body over the guardrail.

At this moment, she was inexplicably running with the idol she admired at that time.

Unable to control herself, she stretched out her hands towards the figure in front of her and pushed her legs against the ground with all her might.

She opened her mouth, wanting to shout out her idol's name, but no sound came out.

As if he knew the burning passion and eagerness in her heart, he shouted out the name for her at the top of his lungs.

"The Emperor of the East Sea has passed! 3 horse lengths... 4 horse lengths!!
"The disadvantages of the outsiders are nothing to worry about! The Emperor of the East Sea rushed over!
"200 meters left... 100 meters! The Emperor of the East Sea is leading the way! The Emperor of the East Sea is walking alone!
"50 meters! The glory of the Japanese derby is just around the corner!
“Cross the finish line!
"The Emperor of the East Sea...achieved his second crown!

"With complete and utter strength, the East Sea Emperor won the Japanese Derby!

"Following the Emperor, once again, I've achieved two undefeated titles!!"

For a moment, looking at the slender and petite figure behind the finish line, looking at the bright red cape fluttering in the wind behind her, looking at her smiling and raising two fingers to the attention of the audience, Beibu Xuanju's heart seemed to be exploding with fireworks, and he was filled with ecstasy that was difficult to restrain.

Win...win!
Did you see that?! Diamond-chan! Emperor Senior won!

The undefeated horse girl who won two championships... Senior did it!!
Then I too...eh?

Wait a minute, I...

Why did you suddenly appear here...?
She was stunned for a moment, and the excitement and joy gradually faded away, and she suddenly heard someone calling her name.

"...Xiaobei? Are you...are you okay? Did you have a nightmare...?" Nightmare...

After another moment of distraction, a soft feeling spread throughout his body, and Beibu Xuanju realized that he seemed to be dreaming.

I quickly opened my eyes, and what I saw was a dizzying scene.

The desk, the bed on the opposite side, the doll next to the pillow, and the bright red lantern light on my side...

This is indeed the familiar dormitory.

However, the ceiling and floor are reversed, and the desk and bed are also hung upside down in the sky.

Also hanging upside down was Satomi Hikari, who was wearing pajamas. She had an eye patch on her forehead and was looking over with concern, her head tilted.

"I...eh? Why am I sleeping on the floor?"

After a moment of confusion, Beibu Xuanju realized that although he was lying well in the quilt before falling asleep, now most of his body was lying on the floor.

Seeing that Beibu Xuanju had woken up, Ri Jianguangzuan hurried over to help her up.

"You... seem to be having a nightmare? I was sleeping, and suddenly I heard a lot of commotion over here, and then you excitedly shouted "Senior Emperor" or something..."

"Is that so... Then I understand."

Standing up and scratching his head embarrassedly, Beibu Xuanju explained:
"I was dreaming, but it wasn't a nightmare.

"Let me tell you, Guang Zuan-chan, this dream is hilarious!
"I don't know what happened, I dreamed I was training, running on the wall.

"As I was running, I suddenly ran into the Japanese Derby.

“It’s that Japanese derby with Emperor Senior!
"Then I ran with my senior, and he was so fast that he won the championship in no time.

"I was just happy for my senior when I heard you calling me."

While Northern Xuanju was chattering excitedly, Satomi Kozuna almost understood what was going on.

Seeing the bedding and pillows on her friend's bed in a mess, she jokingly helped to tidy them up.

"So that's how it is. No wonder the quilt was kicked like this..."

Beibu Xuanju scratched her head again and saw that the doll that was originally placed next to the pillow was now tilted at the end of the bed. She hurried over to pick it up and tidied the bed with Satomi Mitsuzumi.

After helping to tidy up, looking at Northern Xuanju who was about to get back into bed, Satomi Mitsuzumi said thoughtfully:

"But...it's only natural. I mean, Xiaobei would have a dream like that."

“As it should be…?” Northern Xuanju was stunned.

With encouragement in their smiles, Satomi Kozuna and Kitagawa Xuanju looked at each other.

"After all, in two days, it will be that match you dreamed about, Xiaobei...

“It’s called the Japan Derby.

"I've been training every day, working hard for this match, and Emperor is your idol, so it's normal to have that kind of dream.

"I think this is what happens when you think about something during the day and dream about it at night."

"What you think about during the day, you dream about at night..."

After muttering it over again, Beibu Xuanju paused in his movement to get into the bed.

Suddenly her eyes focused, she grabbed the mobile phone that she had placed on the desk before going to bed and took a look at it.

"Okay! It's decided! It's almost time to get up, so I won't sleep anymore!"

She jumped up and unbuttoned her pajamas in front of the surprised look in Li Jianguang's eyes.

"Good morning, Guang Zuan-chan, I'm ready to go to training!"
