Uma Musume Girl, I'll tell you about my Santa Hat special move too?

"Everyone has worked so hard, but because of me... the team is going to...!"

White Album clenched his fists tightly, his whole body tense and trembling.

No... I...

"But don't give up..."

Lofty ideals slightly parted their lips, and a hoarse voice escaped from them:

"Don't give up... there's always a chance, there's always a way!"

"Let's try a little harder, White Album, Lava Giant... Let's try a little harder together with the trainer!"

The three of them hugged each other, their foreheads touching, forming a circle, and wept bitterly.

However, as the three were merely the losers, not many viewers even noticed this scene.

Yes, but it was their longing and fervent anticipation of the victors.

"Stardust illusion..."

As the overlord walked up to the three, the white photo album suddenly raised its head and called out.

Her face was already streaked with tears, but her words still made Stardust Illusion look at the girl in front of it.

Stardust Illusion suddenly recalled the scene of the other person talking incessantly to him inside the gate.

That was the determination in the young girl's eyes, no less than anyone else's.

Like herself and other female racehorses, she yearned for victory.

All of this happened just a few minutes ago, yet it feels like a lifetime ago.

"what happened?"

"So is the Stardust Illusion's question."

"You have to... keep winning..."

White Album watched the race winner with her two companions; they harbored no resentment towards the runner.

There's no reason for the other party to accommodate my predicament; they're simply doing their best.

But it is precisely because of this that they want to say these words to this tyrant:

You must win!

Yes, keep winning, Stardust Illusion...

We are merely mortals who serve to highlight your achievements. Only if you keep winning will our failures not be meaningless.

Our running will at least not be completely meaningless...!

"Hey?"

The stardust illusion grinned wildly, its laughter maniacal:

"It's not your place to order me around."

After saying that, she turned around and continued walking forward.

The fierce westerly wind continued to howl, carrying the words of the stardust illusion into the ears of the three:

"I'm not doing this for anyone else; I just absolutely have to win."

"If you three keep dawdling and pinning your hopes on others, you might as well keep running—"

"This game was pretty good... Keep it up!"

------------

Even after the competition, the winners' stage was still exciting.

After so many stage experiences, even without choosing original songs, Stardust Illusion is already able to control the rhythm of the entire performance.

At this moment, she had already stepped off the stage and entered the dressing room, packing her belongings.

"You are very generous, Lord Stardust Illusion, the second generation of Little Chestnut Hat."

Standing beside her, Hikari Toyama spoke in a sarcastic tone, her arms crossed over her chest:

"This is the entire prize money for the G3 level competition champion, and he just gave it all away with a single sentence?"

"That's a bounty of 3800 million! You're really willing to spend that much."

There's a reason why Toyama Scarlet Association said that.

As a trainer for Stardust Illusion, the runner's revenue share for each race is theoretically 4:2:4.

That is, Stardust Illusion accounts for 4%, Crimson Toyama accounts for 2%, and the remaining 4% is used for training resources.

The bounty will first be deposited into the Stardust Illusion account, and the remaining 6 will be kept and used by Scarlet Toyama.

However, after today's race, Stardust Illusion briefly inquired about the situation of the three runners.

Then, without consulting his superiors, he lent all of his prize money from the competition to their trainer.

It could be said that she took away the reward that belonged to Hikari Toyama without authorization.

However, even when questioned like this, Stardust Illusion didn't seem to care much.

She took off the wristband, carefully put it away, and then turned her head, tilting it slightly.

"You don't care about this anyway, right? You can earn it back in the next competition."

Seeing her assigned racehorse girl's stubborn and uncooperative behavior, even Hikari Toyama couldn't help but roll her eyes.

At first, when it was interacting with itself, Stardust Illusion showed considerable respect.

But now, in their daily lives, the two of them are practically inseparable, like best friends who are always at odds with each other.

And just as Stardust Illusion said, Scarlet Toyama isn't the type who particularly cares about money.

For madmen like her and Stardust Illusion, money is something that only needs to be enough to meet their needs.

"Well... never mind."

Thinking of this, Hikari Toyama could only wave her hand.

Since Stardust Illusion thinks those three racehorse girls need it, let's consider it a charity donation.

"Zhuo Fu and the others from the prestigious family are already getting ready to board the plane. It's too late to rush over now."

As Stardust Illusion packed her things and prepared to leave, Toyama Scarlet followed behind her and casually remarked.

This guy looks like he's in a hurry, is he trying to get to the airport?

"It's a real shame we didn't go and deliver it directly..."

"Isn't it all your fault for secretly signing me up for the competition? Are you trying to shift the blame?"

Chapter 149 Running with Stardust for a Lifetime

Salala, salala—

This is the sound of a pen tip rubbing against the pages of a book.

Under the lamplight, Mi Yu, a racehorse girl with long black hair, sat at the table, engrossed in her work.

She was barefoot, waiting for the medicine that had just been applied to her ankles to cool down for a while.

At this moment, Mi Yu is holding a pen and writing on a somewhat worn notebook.

This notebook appears to be her diary, and it had already contained quite a bit of writing before today:

[Since childhood, rice baths have always caused trouble and annoyance.]

Even relatives will begin to suffer misfortune as soon as they get close to the rice bath.

So gradually, no one wanted to be with him anymore. Even at school, teachers had to make him sit alone in a corner to avoid disturbing others.

At that time, Mi Yu also thought that this approach was correct. Since it would cause trouble for others, then she should restrain herself and not get close to anyone anymore...

I'll bear this misfortune alone; that's enough.

However, even so... Mi Yu doesn't want things to continue like this. She wants to make others smile for her and bring happiness to the audience. Mi Yu wants to become that kind of racehorse girl.

It's like... "The Blue Rose of Happiness".

Then, Mi Yu encountered the Stardust Illusion...

This line was crossed out by Mi Yu, and then the text was continued below:

However, Mi Yu met her brother, and he kept taking the initiative to reach out to her. Even in the face of this misfortune, he did not back down. He treated her as gently as a younger sister, and he did not give up on her even when she refused.

On the field, my brother is as powerful as a monster...

No, even if he really is a monster, my brother is definitely a kind monster. Even if he really is a monster, Mi Yu is willing to accept him!

As she wrote this, Mi Yu blushed and crossed out the sentence again.

She carefully revised the sentence again and again to prevent anyone from seeing her feelings:

Later, the older brother even treated Mi Yu's wounds and took her to the hospital...

Even though she was injured again due to Mi Yu's misfortune, she didn't blame Mi Yu. Instead, she kept trying to cheer Mi Yu up.

Miyu is a racehorse girl who loves writing in her diary.

She often encounters many things that she can't tell anyone, and even though she keeps them bottled up inside, she still wants to confide in others.

Therefore, she chose this method to record her feelings.

Just like my favorite picture book since childhood: "The Blue Rose of Happiness".

Mi Yu believes that the words in books contain boundless power, and the words she records can also bring her greater courage.

Moreover, even in the future...

So, if someone had found her diary back then, they might have remembered that there was once an ordinary, even unsuccessful, racehorse girl named Mi Yu in this world.

Thinking of this, Mi Yu turned to the next blank page, picked up her pen, and continued writing:

[I really want to make my brother happy... He really does like strong racehorse girls, doesn't he?]
