Rudolf, of course, would inquire about the reason for this matter. Rudolf always took matters related to the emperor very seriously.

However… Jinlang felt that Rudolph seemed unusually serious today? Jinlang thought to himself, but he didn’t suspect anything. He just assumed that it was a critical time and Rudolph would not relax his vigilance regarding the affairs of the East Sea Emperor.

Seeing Jin Lang's relaxed attitude, Rudolph's expression softened slightly. She found a place to sit down, composed herself, and then asked:

"Trainer Jinlang... there's more to this match than meets the eye, isn't there?"

"This time, the Emperor was able to fight the Golden Ship to a perfect draw. Did something happen?"

“Yes.” Jin Lang readily admitted this, replying softly, “Just before the Emperor and the Golden Ship were about to cross the finish line, I heard Godorphin’s voice, the voice of the goddess who had met with me and the Emperor.”

"She has given me the choice of this game, and even the future of the Golden Ship and the Emperor. Obviously, if I choose either one, the future of the Golden Ship or the Emperor will change."

"...Who did you choose?" Rudolf was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then asked.

In fact, judging from the result of this match, Rudolph already knew the answer, but she still wanted to hear Jinlang say it out loud, otherwise her anxiety would not dissipate.

"I chose both of them, leaving neither of them out."

Now, Lang's natural and unhesitating answer finally put Rudolf's mind at ease. However, as she relaxed, her gaze softened, becoming gentle and tender as she looked at the open and honest man before her.

A person who can make the most dangerous, yet best choice for their two children, without hesitation in front of a goddess, is definitely a reliable person. He would take a huge risk for the two children he cares about, no matter who the person in front of him is.

Back when Jinlang was still in his old age, he had already fallen out with Old Lady Megumi over Megumi McQueen. If that was an accident, then the choice the three goddesses made for Jinlang this time completely proved Jinlang's character.

He now has the mindset of a young man. Although his judgment has certainly been influenced by his experience in old age, he has already withstood the test of both old and young mindsets and delivered a perfect answer.

...You can't blame the emperor for that, Rudolph thought to herself, but at the same time, she felt a kind of frustration that she herself didn't know she was experiencing.

"Today's trainer."

"Ok?"

"May I ask... what is your current view on emperors?"

"An emperor?" Faced with Rudolf's sudden question, Jinlang was slightly taken aback. However, his male nature made him think about why Rudolf had suddenly asked this question.

But now Lang noticed Rudolph's tender gaze, a gaze that seemed somewhat familiar, reminiscent of the way Old Lady Megumi had looked at him. A strange thought immediately arose in his mind...

If the former Jinlang with an old mindset might not have realized it, then the Jinlang who has regained a youthful mindset is somewhat aware of his "popularity." After all, he was young and impetuous, and Jinlang is not the kind of person who didn't enjoy life when he was young. And people who have enjoyed life are more confident than ordinary people. Such a mindset still remains in Jinlang today.

Rudolf's expression gave Jin Lang a strange feeling. He couldn't help but picture the emperor's small but majestic figure in his mind, but he quickly put the thought out of his mind.

I'm sorry... Although he, like any ordinary man, only asks for "pretty women, no problem" when it comes to women, McQueen is really the limit he can accept right now. Any younger emperor would be too much of a problem, to the point that the US military stationed in Japan would immediately raid his house and shoot him.

Jinlang can accept McQueen because although she is still a high school student, she has a mature and steady personality. She will definitely grow up in the next few years. Based on what he has seen of the Mejiro family members so far, Jinlang thinks that McQueen will definitely grow into a beautiful young woman.

But the East Sea Emperor... I have to say, her adorable face, which can only be described as childish now, makes it impossible for Jin Lang to think of her as a woman—she's just a child, a proud and pure child who evokes no feelings other than a desire to protect her.

This idea will likely remain deeply ingrained for years to come. Even if the Empress truly grows into a mature woman, for Jin Lang, whenever he sees her, he will likely remember her petite figure, full of vigor and spirit on the field…

No interest, really no interest... This is Jinlang's true feeling right now.

"Don't overthink it, Rudolph. I've always treated the Empress like a younger sister, or even like a daughter or granddaughter. And most of the other people on our team feel the same way."

As for Rudolf's nascent speculation, Jin Lang immediately said, "I prefer more mature women. The probability of you being with me is higher than with an emperor."

"Wh-no, excuse me."

However, Jin Lang's analogy was clearly not quite appropriate, and Rudolf, who had made all the preparations, was taken aback by Jin Lang's words, coughing dryly and turning his head away, his cheeks slightly flushed with embarrassment.

Upon seeing Rudolf's expression, Jin Lang immediately narrowed his eyes. He sensed that Rudolf's reaction was somewhat unnatural, especially when he noticed Rudolf's slightly flushed face. He almost cursed under his breath.

—What's wrong with you two, father and son? Forget about emperors, but I don't recall ever really provoking you, have I? Why are you reacting like a textbook character?

Jin Lang, of course, was unaware that his image in Rudolf's mind was changing time and again, even becoming increasingly noble with each passing moment. He was also unaware of the Symbol Family's plans for him, because when Sirius came to warn him last time, Jin Lang happened to be in a state of emotional instability, and he forgot to ask Sirius's purpose for coming.

What made Rudolf even more embarrassed was that Jinlang's words were, to her, practically equivalent to saying "I prefer you to the emperor," which was what made Rudolf awkward.

Admittedly, she doesn't dislike Jin Lang; in fact, she respects him immensely. If it were Rudolf in the past, as the "Emperor," she might have genuinely pursued Jin Lang as her ideal partner—even though she is equally clueless about romance.

But the situation is different now. Rudolph can see that the Emperor, who is now experiencing his first love, has some affection for his trainer. But if Jinlang likes her more than the Emperor... then her relationship with the Emperor will be awkward.

"I'm sorry... Your Majesty," Rudolf murmured to himself, finally managing to calm his racing heart.

After Rudolf looked at Jinlang again, she herself couldn't help but slightly turn her head away and whispered:

"...Let's go together, Trainer Jinlang. Also, please don't tell the Emperor about what happened today."

"We still have the Autumn Emperor's Gift to attend to." Upon hearing this, Jinlang breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that he was lucky to have discovered it in time and nipped it in the bud; otherwise, who knows what the future would have turned out like.

The matter of the Autumn Emperor's Prize did not put too much pressure on Jinlang. He was more worried about the other side, Ikezoe and the Gold Master in Paris... how were they doing?

Chapter 559: Wada's Decreasing Family Status

The end of the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Festival not only signifies that the Autumn Emperor's Appreciation Festival will follow as scheduled, but also represents that the annual Arc de Triomphe Grand Prix will soon begin in Paris, France.

No matter how steadily the Golden Ship, the Emperor of the East Sea, or Megumi McQueen take their next steps, they cannot provide much encouragement to the team on the other side of the ocean. The only way to do this is to transmit the message from here to them through electronic devices.

"...Really? You've already won the Chrysanthemum Prize. That's good."

While it was nighttime in France, the sun shone brightly on everyone at Tracey Academy in Japan. On the other side of the screen, Ikezoe, dressed in pajamas, was in her dormitory. Under everyone's gaze, Ikezoe and her group seemed to have just finished washing up, as if they were about to go to sleep. Behind Ikezoe, Makoto and Tosho were still drying their hair with towels. When they saw that Ikezoe had made contact with everyone at Tracey Academy, they immediately surrounded her.

"Kenichi? Are you video chatting with everyone in Treson? Ah! Big Sister Empress! I heard you and Golden Ship tied for first place and won the Chrysanthemum Award! You're really strong!"

"Hehe, of course~" The East Sea Emperor nodded with great satisfaction, his tail held high as he replied. As the leader of the East Sea Business Reform, the Emperor was naturally pleased to hear the East Sea Business Reform's admiration for him.

At this moment, Makoto leaned against Ikezoe and said to everyone, "Congratulations to you all, Emperor, Golden Ship, Master and Onii-chan, and everyone in Paris. We are all very happy to hear this news."

"Golden Ship, the senior members of Golden Journey specifically asked us to tell you that you are their pride."

"Hehe, I already know. I just received a message from Big Sister." Upon hearing this, Golden Ship naturally nodded with a big smile. Receiving praise from Golden Journey was one of the very few things that could make Golden Ship smile for so long. Even now, her mouth is still wide open in a grin.

However, the Golden Ship soon noticed that a key figure was missing and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, where's the Master Craftswoman? Why isn't she here?"

"The competition is coming up soon, and the Grandmaster said she wants to be with her family." Chi Tian responded gently to the question, saying to the Golden Ship, "She's with the Golden Journey team right now. Don't worry, the Grandmaster is fine. If nothing unexpected happens, she's probably dozing off in the arms of the Lady of Oriental Art, right?"

This scene is truly unimaginable… Golden Ship thought to herself, but she didn’t say anything, because she knew very well that Oriental Art did this to leave a good impression on Chi Tian—although she felt that the old lady would eventually reveal her true nature, she dared not let A-Ship take the initiative to expose her.

It's not that she can't beat Oriental Art... it's that she really doesn't dare to fight back. Most of the Golden Family's racehorse girls are like this with Oriental Art; it's not that they can't beat them, it's just that they don't dare.

After a brief chat and some discussion, Zhen Jiling and Dong Shang also went to bed, while Chi Tian moved outside from his room—these trainers had some private things to say that they could only do so at this time.

"How is it, Ikezoe-kun? Did you... see Nase and Suzuka?"

"Don't worry, they knew we were here on an expedition and met with us immediately." In response to Wada's question, Ikezoe gave a knowing smile and said:

"Nase seems to be in good spirits and is doing very well here. Suzuka is also doing very well. I heard that she is now quite familiar with the venues in Europe and plans to participate in her first local competition since coming to France."

"I mentioned to Nase that you and the opera and the raging waves were together, and she seemed pretty indifferent. Wada, you're really lucky, aren't you? All the good women you like don't fight over you. Ah—I'm so envious."

"Haha..." However, facing Ikezoe's envious look, Wada chuckled a few times. He didn't want to pay attention to the issue. Ikezoe probably didn't notice that in just that short period of time, Wada had actually lost a lot of weight.

And the reason... is, of course, related to the fact that his two are becoming increasingly open about their roles as racehorse girls. During this time, Wada Kazuyoshi has been busy with the planning of the URA series at the Opera, and they have been spending a lot of time together—although they had spent a lot of time together when they were still active, training and everyday life are different.

Making plans, revising schemes, and starting over—everything was incredibly tedious and boring. As the student council president, Hao Geju had only been in office for less than a year, and now she often felt back pain and frequently needed Wada to massage her.

Then, as you all know, some massages will inevitably move to strange places, accompanied by a few soft moans and the need to release pent-up pressure. Before long, Wada would often be half-forced and half-forced into the office by his ultimate tyrant, and only after an hour or two, with the tyrant's satisfaction, could the two finally get a short rest.

And it's unclear whether it's just Wada's imagination... but in the past, both Good Opera and Raging Waves were his horse girls, and they were completely obedient to his orders.

However, since Good Opera decided to retire, his personal status among the two main female horse trainers has plummeted, gradually shifting from trainer to walking carrot juice machine.

Even the timid Nu Tao can now drag him into the room and start dancing without saying a word. It's unclear whether it's because of another "famous general Nu Tao" in Nu Tao's mind, but Nu Tao's desires are getting bigger and bigger each time, and the intensity is getting stronger and stronger.

The most recent incident felt like it was about to crack Wada's pelvis, making Wada wonder if the raging waves were possessed by another version of her... Fortunately, Treson Academy took good care of Wada's situation and gave him a special subsidy... to buy supplements.

When Wada tearfully pleaded for a way to curb the horse girl's jumping urges, the chairman and the Green Devil exchanged a glance, and finally, it was Surugawa Tesuna who awkwardly spoke up:

“Trainer Wada… First of all, the desire of racehorse girls to jump is exactly the same as that of humans. You should know very well that humans are creatures that are in a state of… desire 24 hours a day. However, because racehorse girls are much stronger than humans, their desires and needs are often greater and harder to satisfy than those of ordinary people.”

"Moreover, the amount of exercise that racehorses do means they secrete too much hormone. You should also know that horses raised by people who work out tend to have a stronger desire to jump, right?"

"Because once the demand of Uma Musume (Horse Girls) is generated, it is very difficult to satisfy. And in your case... as far as I know, Good Opera and Raging Waves have had a strong demand for you in this regard for a long time, but it has been suppressed for a long time."

"Therefore... when it's released now, it will be even more intense—of course, you're a superman in a sense for managing to hold on until today. Every year, we have many trainers who are drained of energy or hospitalized with pelvic injuries after being jumped on by their racehorses..."

"We have special subsidies and medical insurance for this, but... apart from that, we have no ability to stop any of the horse girls' actions, and we do not allow the use of violence to stop the horse girls' actions that are not intended to cause harm."

So—good luck to you.

And so, He Tian has been exploited all along, and now he feels like his body has been hollowed out. But strangely, if this were the world before, he would probably be in the hospital by now, but here, every time he feels exhausted, he sleeps for a few hours and wakes up the next day feeling perfectly fine and full of energy.

Considering that Ikezoe's body was enhanced after the transmigration, Wada now has a strong reason to suspect that his own body was also enhanced by the three goddesses with their perverse sense of humor.

However, something was somewhat off about the areas he reinforced.

"These are only two racehorse girls. If more and more kids join my team in the future... I don't know if I can keep up."

Whenever Wada thought about this, he couldn't help but light a cigarette and look into the distance with a sense of melancholy. He felt that although he had achieved the happy life he had been pursuing, he didn't feel happy at all; instead, he felt somewhat miserable.

Chapter 560: Maruzensky's Last Act of Help

"Alright, let's stop talking about me. My life is miserable enough as it is, so let's not bring up such hurtful topics."

Wada changed the subject, then looked back at Ikezoe on the screen and asked, "Ikezoe, how's the progress in Paris? So far, have there been any unexpected events?"

"Yes, everything is very peaceful. We don't have much contact with the staff at the TV station. They usually don't come over unless we call them." Chi Tian nodded. The initial fear in Paris over the past few months has gradually subsided, and he has gradually relaxed his vigilance. After all, no one can guarantee that they will be on high alert for several months in a row.

"However, in order to prevent something like the Great Shock from happening again, we cook for ourselves no matter what we eat, and the Golden Journey team is here to take care of us. I'm sure that even if the Shetai team is bold enough, they wouldn't dare to pull such a trick in front of the master's guardian."

"Hmm, it seems that the shatai has definitely toned down its efforts recently, but don't let your guard down too much, Ikezoe-kun." Upon hearing this, Jinlang also judged that the shatai would definitely not dare to make any small moves during this period, but he still did not stop being wary of the shatai.

“Be very careful, Mr. Ikezoe. Although you are both Japanese, to the Shetai, you are not on the same side as them.”

“I understand.” Chi Tian nodded as well. Of course he knew this. Although in name, both Da Shenhan and Golden Master were racehorse girls representing Japan on this expedition, they were clearly not part of the same group as Shedai. Neither side ever regarded the other as a partner.

This is likely why Japan has never been able to win at the Arc de Triomphe before – after all, even as a team, they can't let go of their differences and maintain such a wary attitude on the road to victory.

But there really is no other way. Do you believe that Chi Tian and his team can shake hands and make peace with Shetai at this crucial moment? Chi Tian certainly doesn't.

This time, Da Zhenhan and Jin Juren were not only teammates, but also each other's greatest rivals. They both aimed to defeat each other and reach a higher level, thus achieving victory. Therefore, neither side held back in this match.

Shetai has staked his entire fortune on this high-stakes gamble, betting on this massive shock that he will absolutely go all out for. So it's even less likely that he would cooperate with Chitian and the Golden Master – who would cooperate with someone who would completely ruin their business?

Therefore, Ikezoe and his team must be wary of Shedai's scheme, and they must not let their guard down, especially as the final stage approaches.

Now, Nami Ikezoe, with a reassuring calmness, nodded slightly and said, "I'm sorry, Ikezoe-kun, about what you said before, about the second [domain] of the Great Shock... Wada-kun and I were unable to help you."

"If only my relationship with Madam Meguro hadn't deteriorated to this point, then perhaps Madam Meguro could still have found some clues..."

"I haven't found any information either... I'm so sorry, Ikezoe-kun." Wada shook his head, his face full of regret.

"Don't say that, Imai-senpai, Wada." Ikezoe was a little disappointed when he heard this, but he also understood that he was just grasping at straws in his desperation. In Japan, he had already used various methods to investigate the news of the Great Shock. The Golden Family had also made efforts, but all to no avail.
