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

Seeing the other person burst out of the large beech tree with perfect grace, he felt as if he had escaped a calamity.

"come on……"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, the man with the binoculars disregarded everything else and immediately leaned closer to listen.

"I said... Go for it! Stardust Illusion!!!"

Having shed his previous reserve and concerns, and fully unleashing his fan instincts, the bespectacled man finally rediscovered the passion he had when he first watched the game a few years ago, and shouted with all his might.

He, who was just feeling uneasy because of various signs, is now finally feeling the heat wave coming from the arena.

It was as if the suppressed emotions were swept away by the running of the stardust illusion.

This feeling of relief, this feeling of fulfillment.

Without a doubt, this is the happiness that racehorses bring him!

--------

(Concentrate!)

The stardust illusion blinked suddenly.

Just as I stepped out of the shadow of the large beech tree, a phantom seemed to flash before my eyes.

As if someone had given him a push from behind, Stardust Illusion felt a new power suddenly appear in his body.

Before he could even think about what was going on, Stardust Illusion refocused his attention on the game.

The body acts before the brain, as if driven by instinct, breaking free from the stardust illusion in the shadows and readjusting its running style.

Although this may seem abrupt, let me explain something here.

Even in Uma Musume Pretty Derby, Stardust Mirage's height is something very few can match.

Her height of nearly 180cm has the most direct impact on her running ability, which is her long and powerful legs.

It's understandable that this matter will be overlooked by others, because Stardust Illusions have almost always used explosive acceleration methods in the past.

By bombarding the ground with overwhelming force, they irrationally increase their speed.

However, at this moment, her movements were completely different from before.

As if emphasizing those long legs, Stardust Illusion now fully extends the arc of its legs with every run.

Using the advantage of its long stride, Stardust Illusion leaps lightly forward, its rapidly moving form seemingly traversing different dimensions.

Her posture, her movements... left all the spectators who saw her steps speechless for a moment.

That is……

That running style is...!

"Silent... Suzuka?"

As the Stardust Phantom sped past the third bend, a spectator murmured to himself.

What he said wasn't entirely wrong; this running style was exactly the special stride that Silent Suzuka used back then.

it's known……

[The colorful skill of the escapee from another dimension has been activated.]

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

Chapter 225 (6k) (plus 29.5) Ta-ta-gai, ta-ta-gai!

This is really... too chaotic.

(Stardust made a promise with me not to do anything reckless and to protect my legs, but she didn't care about any of that at all!!!)

The Emperor of the East Sea thought to himself.

To avoid being left behind by Stardust Illusion, she was forced to speed up and is still in third place. Ahead of her is a blonde runner named Ibuki Maikaku, and behind her are Tosho Reform and Narita Shirahito, who are almost neck and neck.

Whoever it is, the runners in this race are going through a lot of suffering.

On the one hand, they see that the leading Stardust Illusion is getting further and further away from them, and if they don't catch up, they may face the situation where they don't have enough time to close the gap in the final game.

On the other hand, this treacherous downhill terrain requires one to use every trick in the book to control their speed in order to prevent loss of balance or even slipping.

Ibuki Maikaku, who had just unleashed a burst of white lightning speed with great vigor, was clearly in a tough fight, and the two behind her had to concentrate on controlling their footwork.

"Is this your purpose, Master Ryan...?"

The Emperor of the East Sea muttered to himself.

Although she was also affected by the terrain, she could feel with every step she took that her legs seemed to know where to step.

She didn't need to expend much strength or energy; her body naturally adjusted its movements, making it almost impossible for her to feel the impact transmitted from the horseshoes beneath her feet...

It's as if she was born knowing how to run downhill.

(Senior Ryan... So this is why you insisted that I live on Mount Fuji and go up and down the mountain every day?)

The Emperor of the East Sea took a deep breath, feeling a mixture of gratitude and slight pride.

Indeed, Stardust Illusion is definitely not the only one who has been able to improve in this competition.

The girl's gaze passed over Ibuki Maikaku in front of her and landed on the silhouette of Stardust Illusion.

At the same moment, the Stardust Illusion, which had slightly shifted its position from the others due to the curve, also turned its head and, using the curve, made eye contact with the Emperor who was looking at it.

The smell of gunpowder in the air suddenly intensified, as if a major battle was about to break out.

Then, as if they had agreed beforehand, they both looked away at the same time.

Although it is very subtle, it is also difficult to detect.

However, the Emperor of the East Sea was able to perceive the meaning contained in that gaze:

【Catch up, Your Majesty! I've been waiting for you for so long!】

At this moment, the emperor raised her head and looked down the slope ahead, her azure eyes, brimming with fighting spirit.

The invisible battle aura emanating from his body vaporized in the air, and the phantom gradually condensed above the emperor's head, resembling a mythical creature descending upon this place—

His eyes were almost burning, and his expression was one of extreme confidence.

(Even emperors...)

This undefeated genius has come to understand the meaning of this moment.

This downhill slope is not only a stage for Stardust Illusion to distance itself from others, but also the best place for it to shine!

The Emperor of the East Sea smiled with some pleasure.

The Stardust Illusion, running at the forefront, seemed to sense her emperor's eager excitement and unconsciously grinned wildly.

Ah, the one I've been waiting for is finally here.

Right now, at this very moment—

"Come forth, Emperor of the East Sea!"

"Even an emperor like me knows what progress means!"

The two voices rang out almost simultaneously on the field.

He suddenly crouched down, then instantly changed his stance, unleashing the power he had accumulated from this massive movement.

Above the head of the Emperor of the East Sea, the phantom formed from crimson battle aura finally materialized into its true form—

Grit your teeth and concentrate.

This movement delivers a tremendous impact to the knee, sending a tearing pain directly into the nerve.

However, if it's just once... I can still handle it!

On the field, the phantom of the phoenix suddenly flapped its wings.

That was the brilliance of flames burning fiercely after obscuring everyone's glory, soaring through the sky and guiding the Emperor of the East Sea forward!

Originally, this was the highest level of downhill technique that Megumi Ryan possessed.

Over the past month, this senior member of the Mejiro family has been subtly and quietly imparting all the theories and training to the Emperor of the East Sea.

A month of training, the experience gained from his predecessors, coupled with the already extraordinary talent of the East Sea Emperor—

To this day, these elements remain within the body of the East Sea Emperor, and have blossomed and borne fruit, transforming into her most powerful weapon!

[The golden skill, Determined Descent, has been activated.]

[The golden skill, Supreme Descendant, has been activated.]

With nimble steps like a dancer, the runner strides forward with an intense passion that ignites everything, the moment the horseshoes pound the ground.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

As if venting the pain born from a vigorous run, the Emperor of the East Sea roared.

The phoenix, reborn from the ashes, soars forth with new power!

Immediately afterwards, the announcer's voice echoed in everyone's ears:

The race continues intensely, with all the drivers having passed the second corner and now sprinting towards the second straight.

As you can see, the pace of the entire race is extremely fast, led by Stardust Illusion, who is currently in first place, especially with the downhill track.

If the runners can't catch their breath and adjust their condition, the next stretch will be extremely difficult!

[The stardust illusion continues to accelerate! The runner bursts forth from behind the beech tree, seemingly born for this race; no one can get close to her from behind.]

The host, gripping the microphone, quickly introduced the current race situation, but just as she was about to continue introducing the runners in order, she began to describe the race progress.

However, a figure suddenly appeared in her field of vision from the track!

【Huh?!】

The racehorse girl who suddenly appeared from the runners' group at some point instantly attracted her attention;
