Having trained real horses, why are we now training racehorse girls after time-traveling?

"Listen to me, listen to me! I can actually unleash my [aura] now! It feels so amazing! The president said I've broken through to a higher level! He said some kind of 'knot' in my heart has been untied with your help!"

"Thank you so much! Thanks to you, I finally have the strength to compete with Golden Ship-san!"

"...That would be wonderful."

After wiping away the lingering scent of the emperor from his face, Jin Lang offered his congratulations with a smile. However, at this moment, he was also starting to have a headache because of the emperor's affairs.

It wasn't because the emperor was now affected again, but because after that day, Jinlang discovered that the emperor's attitude towards him had undergone a huge 180-degree change, and one could even say... he was becoming a little too clingy.

Chapter 482: Rudolf's Hellish Jokes

It must be said that after that day of opening his heart, the Emperor of the East Sea recovered from his disappointment very quickly. The next day, everyone saw the Emperor of the East Sea smiling again, and he was more intimate and unrestrained in expressing his views than before.

Simply put, she is now a true East Sea Emperor without any barriers or boundaries. This time, the Emperor truly treats everyone in the team as her friends, instead of the previous feeling of "torturing her teammates during races." Besides training alongside Lu Duo, the Emperor also trains with the rest of the team regularly, and she is now more accepting of these interactions.

Of course, the emperor had no interest in seeking to be tortured, but she could clearly feel her progress now, especially after miraculously breaking through her own realm and mastering [aura], as she said.

"Your Majesty, have you also learned to project an imposing aura? That's truly impressive." Upon hearing this, McQueen's eyes lit up, and he sincerely praised the Emperor, feeling delighted for him.

"Hehe, I still can't compare to McQueen and everyone else. Although I've mastered it now, the compatibility doesn't seem to be very high." The Empress rubbed her head a little embarrassedly. She was still in the beginner stage of learning [Aura], so naturally she couldn't compare to the rest of the team, let alone someone like Golden Ship who was born with a 100% compatibility. However, she still felt that mastering this ability had improved her own abilities.

"But I'll work really hard! I specifically consulted with Trainer Ikezoe and asked the Master Boss to improve my [Aura] ability! The Master Boss has also agreed to train with me!"

"Well done, Your Majesty. You seem to have a clear understanding of the strengths of each of our three trainers." Jin Lang was not angry when he heard that the Emperor had gone to see Chi Tian. Instead, he praised the Emperor's wisdom in finding the most suitable way for him to improve himself.

“Actually, you can ask me and Golden Ship for help with this kind of thing…” McQueen said with a helpless smile, but since Jin Lang had already agreed, she had nothing to say in rebuttal.

"Don't worry, I've already made all the arrangements for training your aura."

At that moment, Rudolf and the Golden Ship slowly walked over from not far away. Both women had a layer of fine sweat on their foreheads and were wearing sportswear. Obviously, they had accompanied the Emperor in training. The Emperor's breakthrough was largely due to their efforts.

"The most imposing force in the entire team, besides me, is Golden Master. Although Good Opera and Raging Waves have strong momentum, they are not as imposing."

"I will work with the Gold Master to train the Emperor every day. I believe that in time, even if he can't match everyone's level immediately, he will make rapid progress."

Rudolf still solely oversees the training of the East Sea Emperor, and prefers to let the Emperor learn through practice rather than theory. Under her careful guidance, the Emperor, who has always had excellent comprehension, has also improved rapidly. Of course, a month is a limited time for the Emperor to improve herself, but this will give her a greater advantage in the upcoming match against the Golden Ship.

"Hmph, next time it's the Japanese derby, Your Majesty, I won't lose to you like I did during the Satsuki Sho, you golden ferryman!"

The emperor deliberately provoked the golden ship, saying aggressively, "You'd better watch out! This is the Japanese derby, and I, the emperor, am determined to win!"

"Hehe, Your Majesty, you're probably going to be disappointed~" Golden Ship, who had also resolved her inner conflict, appeared relaxed and carefree. She made no attempt to hide anything from everyone, speaking with an open and honest demeanor:

"You're not the only one who broke through to a higher realm, Your Majesty. Lord Golden Ship, I also felt a breakthrough in my realm. I'm stronger than before, and I've also mastered new abilities."

"Ugh?"

However, as soon as the Golden Ship uttered these words, the other four people present all turned their gazes to it. McQueen, in a tone of both surprise and disbelief, was the first to ask the Golden Ship:

"Golden Ship, you... have you also mastered the [Domain]?"

"Hehe, it's a secret~ Everyone will find out during the Japanese derby~"

Upon hearing this, the Golden Ship did not deny it, but did not reveal the effect of its ability. As soon as the Golden Ship said this, the East Sea Emperor, who was originally very happy, suddenly became serious, but he did not back down.

The East Sea Emperor is no longer afraid to race against the Golden Ship again. She has made up her mind that as long as her legs can still run, no matter how many times she loses or what setbacks and hardships she experiences, she will get up again to run and win until she passes her physical peak and can no longer run as a racehorse girl.

"As expected, it can't compare to the progress of Golden Ship Sang..." The Emperor sighed, but soon, a sly smile appeared on his face. He tilted his head slightly to the side and then grabbed Jin Lang's arm.

"emperor?"

"Hehe, but it's okay! I have the best Tuorna! As long as Tuorna keeps teaching me during this time, Golden Ship-san will definitely not be able to train!"

The emperor was joking, but it also carried a hint of retaliatory provocation towards the Golden Ship. He deliberately smiled and gave the Golden Ship a thumbs up, saying, "Golden Ship, you can give the burden to me, who is weaker! When I become stronger than the Golden Ship, I will return the burden to you!"

"you dare?!"

However, the emperor's words truly offended the Golden Ship. Its horse-like ears suddenly stood on end, as if disappearing completely. It immediately grabbed Jin Lang's other arm and, in a tug-of-war with the emperor, said:

"The old man is mine! I will never give him up to anyone!"

"Wait, Golden Ship, Emperor? I'm still discussing the Spring Emperor's Prize with my trainer. Could you give me the trainer first?"

McQueen was also unsettled by this scene and immediately stepped forward to grab Jinlang's shoulder. The three racehorse girls fought for control of Jinlang's body from three different directions, resulting in a stalemate.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Jin Lang was also wincing in pain. His old bones... well, even if they weren't old bones, even a strong young man couldn't withstand being pulled like that by three racehorse girls!

The three women gradually took their initial joking around more seriously, glaring at each other with an unwillingness to admit defeat, which intensified Jin Lang's pain. However, they all knew their limits—otherwise, Jin Lang's body might have really been torn apart.

"Rudolph! Save me, Rudolph!"

"Hehe, Mr. Jinlang is quite popular~" Rudolph, however, showed no intention of helping. Seeing Jinlang being pulled around by the three racehorse girls, he found it rather amusing and jokingly said to him:

"But it's a bit asymmetrical, isn't it? Hehe, in this kind of atmosphere, shouldn't I join in?"

"..."X4

Suddenly, as soon as Rudolph finished speaking, the air fell silent. Rudolph, somewhat bewildered, looked over and discovered that McQueen, Emperor, and Golden Ship were all staring at him with strange expressions, as if they were witnessing something unbelievable.

Lu Duo, belatedly realizing the hidden meaning in his words, immediately and subtly changed the subject, saying:

"That makes four racehorse girls, only one less than 'dismembered by five horses,' hehe."

"..." This could be considered Rudolf's lame joke, right? But for some reason, Jinlang felt that this should be a kind of hellish joke... especially when he was the victim.

However, although Rudolf changed the subject with his unique dry humor, the Empress beside him stared wide-eyed, as if Rudolf's words had given her some inspiration...

Chapter 483: Isn't being with your two favorite people the happiest thing?

"Ugh... what on earth is going on..."

Back in her dorm, Donghai Diwang seemed to be troubled by a problem. She was deep in thought, as if trying to explore all the knowledge in her little brain, but she couldn't figure it out. This quickly attracted the attention of her roommate, Chongpao.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty? Has something happened?"

"...Maya, tell me, what does it really feel like to be in love?"

However, the first words of the Emperor of the East Sea caused Heavy Cannon's mind to freeze for a moment. After a long while, Heavy Cannon finally took a slight breath...

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch—!!"

"Whoa! You scared me!" The emperor was also startled by the sudden, strange cry of the heavy cannon, and said reproachfully, "So what happened?"

"Because, because Your Majesty, you actually asked such an adult question! You've never been interested in romance before." Heavy Cannon looked at the Emperor with surprise. This Emperor, whom she usually regarded as a "child when it comes to romance," was actually seriously thinking about the issue of love one day.

Has she fallen for someone? But I've never heard of the Emperor having any strange relationships with women before. As a rising star of Treson Academy, if the Emperor had any ambiguous relationships with women, it should have been exposed long ago.

However, this did not stop Heavy Cannon, who claimed to be an "adult who understands love" (but was not), from giving the emperor a proper lesson in this area. She was also very curious about what kind of outstanding man could attract the attention of this famous genius from Treson Academy.

"What?! If I wanted to date, one or two relationships would be easy!" The emperor, however, was unconvinced and, hands on his hips, retorted to the heavy artillery:

"Of course I understand what it feels like to be in love! It's that heart-piercing feeling, that overwhelming excitement, like participating in the most important competition—yes, just like the Japanese derby!"

"...There really hasn't been any progress at all, Your Majesty."

However, when Heavy Cannon heard the Empress speak so confidently about her understanding of love, she immediately felt relieved. She gently patted the Empress's head with the tenderness of an older sister towards her younger sister and smiled warmly:

"The emperor is still just a child."

"What... Everyone treats me like a child, really." Upon hearing this, the Empress realized that her understanding of love wasn't that profound, because she had asked McQueen the same question before, and McQueen had answered her in the same way.

The emperor later did some serious self-study, asking Yamato Akaki for a few romance novels that were said to "make vodka's brain short-circuit on the spot." She seemed to have gained some understanding, but having been protected since childhood, she found it difficult to comprehend some of the plots in these comics and romance novels.

Why do female leads fall for male leads so much after they do certain things? It's practically harassment! If these male leads weren't generally so handsome, they'd be at the level of being arrested by the police.

Therefore, after reading these romance novels, the emperor felt that they had no reference value. Now, she was thinking about love, but it was because of a joke that Rudolf had made that gave her some strange ideas.

The last incident made the Emperor realize that the people who cared about him the most in this world were not only the Chairman, but also his trainers. And facing these two people who had given him so much help, the Emperor had a very simple dream in his heart—that he hoped he would never be separated from them.

But how can she avoid being separated from the two? Because the Empress realized that no matter who she chose to be with, she would have to give up the other. A racehorse girl cannot follow two trainers at the same time. The Empress also knew very well that the President had joined the team now only to take better care of her. Sooner or later, he would have to leave the team and continue to live as an independent trainer. At that time, whose team should the Empress choose to join?

No matter what, the Empress couldn't choose between the two she couldn't sever ties with. Her friendships, bonds, and the trainers who cared about her most were all with Team Miracle; while her favorite president was on the other side. She simply couldn't bear to be separated from either of them.

As the emperor pondered this question, it was precisely Rudolf's symbolic joke, "Should I join in?" that sparked a sudden inspiration in him!

—If she can't be separated from the trainer and the president, then wouldn't it be better to let the president and the trainer stay together?

As long as the president and the trainer are together, they will never be separated, and from then on, I can be with the president and the trainer forever!

The emperor who thought of this couldn't help but boast about her own ingenuity, having come up with a way to achieve the best of both worlds. Truly worthy of being called the Emperor of the East Sea!

Some might wonder why the Empress would come up with such a plan? Didn't she adore Rudolf Symbol? She's clearly a very possessive racehorse girl, so why would she think of bringing together her favorite president and her equally favorite trainer? Isn't that exactly what she wanted to see?

Here, the East Sea Emperor must clarify that she does have a little possessiveness and doesn't like others touching things she likes. But firstly, Rudo Symbol is the person she respects the most. If any Tom, Dick, or Harry tries to approach her because they are attracted to Rudo Symbol's good looks, the Emperor doesn't even need to take action. Rudo Symbol can teach them a lesson all by herself.

However, her trainer is no ordinary person; he is an outstanding individual who has not only gained her approval but also Rudolf's. If they can be together, the Emperor will not only feel at ease about Rudolf's future, but also, their being together will not prevent the Emperor from "possessing" them.

At that time, the racehorse girl they care about most will be the Emperor. Wouldn't the Emperor then completely possess the two people she loves most? Because in this world, besides her, who else can receive the love of the two people they love most at the same time?

This is true and lasting "possession"! Her plan, that of the Eastern Sea Emperor, is flawless! It will absolutely not fail!

However, the Emperor soon faced a second problem. Although the goal had been set, it was difficult to make the student council president like the trainer. First of all, the Emperor knew the student council president well. Rudolph had been the student council president for so many years, and he never showed any interest in women. He was always polite but only showed a hint of affection. The time he spent with women was much shorter than the time he spent with Uma Musume.

In addition, the family education of the Symbol family is really strict. The Emperor of the East Sea, who was born into the East Sea family, a small family that is closely related to the Symbol Ranch, knows this very well. Everything in the Symbol family is very strict, and the requirements for someone like Rudo Symbol are even more demanding.

Although the emperor was confident that his trainer was so outstanding that the old lady of the Meguro family had repeatedly asked him to marry into the family, he was sure that the trainer could win the favor of the symbol of the family. But... how could he make the chairman like the trainer?

Although they seemed to have secretly gone on a date with McQueen behind the Emperor's back, they were both too polite to each other and there was no romantic feeling between them, which made the Emperor somewhat troubled.

His trainer was the reserved type, while the president was not good at interacting with the opposite sex, which gave the emperor a real headache.

"However, Maya, I think people who have been in relationships are more experienced in this area, right?"

At this moment, seeing that the Emperor looked really troubled, Heavy Artillery offered a rather pertinent suggestion: "Why don't you ask your friends who have been in relationships? I remember, Your Majesty, your team should have someone like that, right?"

Have you ever been in a romantic relationship?

Upon hearing this, the emperor thought about it carefully, and immediately the images of the goldsmith and the opera appeared in her mind. Slowly, the emperor's eyes brightened.

"Okay, I'll go to the student council and ask the opera senior! She and Trainer Wada were the first in the group to get together, she'll definitely be able to give me some good advice!"

Chapter 484: The Series of Everyone Being a Romance Idiot

Meanwhile, within the student council, our beloved opera has been in a period of rest since returning from her Paris expedition. Now, it seems that she has different opinions from some of the female mascots regarding whether to retire or continue moving forward.

"So, as the TM Opera King who broke the spell of the Arc de Triomphe for us, do you really intend to just stay in the student council, be a student council president, and spend the rest of your life peacefully until graduation, when you will live an ordinary life with your beloved trainer?"

"You must have higher aspirations, right? Great opera veteran? We haven't even had a single competition yet, and I really want to know, who is stronger, you or me!"

Inside the student council, Good Opera was still busily reviewing documents as usual. With the help of veteran student council members like Qi Cao and Narita Shirahito, Good Opera could finally manage student council affairs on her own, though she was still incredibly busy. Good Opera had so many things to deal with; she was currently leading the reforms at Treson Academy, even exchanging many ideas with the chairman of the board. The effort required for this was immense.

Admittedly, Chairman Akikawa Yasei must admit that Good Opera and Rudolf, both student council presidents, have different views on many things. If it were in the past, Rudolf probably wouldn't have supported some of the proposals. But now, the chairman is quite optimistic about Good Opera's pioneering spirit and has also put forward many of his own ideas.
