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

This is not the heatwave that should exist under the scorching summer sun, but a strong wind that truly brings coolness to everyone, sweeping away the exhaustion of the Stardust Illusion, a symbol of victory!

The sudden, strange touch on her back made Alice, who had been staring wide-eyed, squint.

In her hazy vision, the track beneath her feet gradually began to emit speckled light.

These lights, individually, are not particularly dazzling, but they converge at an extremely high speed toward the surrounding points of light, and then are drawn by something to fly backward.

The three shackles that gathered here have all been shattered, opening a new gate of evolution and transforming into a path of radiant light beneath your feet!

[Unique skill... Miracle Run of Holy Night, activated.]

The accelerated stance that Stardust Illusion was now fully displaying was familiar to everyone; it was the final running technique she had used countless times on the track, the reason why this runner was truly revered as a monster.

Her goal is now very clear: to unleash the power called "Domain" in this final showdown!

(But how could such a thing possibly happen!)

The moment Stardust Illusion changed its running posture, Megumi McQueen's eyes widened as he stared intently at his friend's back.

In the first half of the competition, Stardust had already activated his domain. Both he and his opponent should still be enduring the pain of the backlash.

In that state, it would be impossible for him to step into the realm of domains again!

(I don't understand what they mean by "it's impossible".)

(?!)

The voice of the Stardust Illusion rang in Megumi McQueen's heart at that moment. Was it just a coincidence that the Stardust Illusion in her imagination answered her question?

Or perhaps a strange resonance occurred on this field, allowing Stardust to truly connect with him?

McQueen couldn't tell the difference between what was real and what wasn't, because at the very moment she was stunned, the tall, brown-haired girl in front of her suddenly stopped.

As a fierce wind howled and a deafening roar followed, the powerful force of Stardust Illusion's legs ripped the ground apart, and its figure instantly tore through the arena!

The white shockwave generated by breaking the sound barrier swirled around him. At this moment, the Stardust Phantom was like a divine wind, instantly creating a huge gap between itself and Metsubou McQueen behind it, and then completely separating!

Countless particles that existed only in fantasy emerged from all directions, surrounding the racehorse girl named Stardust Illusion and pushing her back into the Realm of Domains.

"—?!"

The astonished expression wasn't just on Megumi McQueen's face, but also on every runner chasing behind him, and even on every spectator watching the race unfold.

Above the endless blue sky, even ordinary humans could vaguely see the dreamlike, semi-transparent silhouette of the meteor dragon!

Those miraculous runners who ride the wind and thunder can be described as unstoppable.

This propelled the entire match to its climax—

--no.

Unaware that the wind and thunder monster shining at the front of the racetrack was causing a disturbance to quietly spread among the racehorse girls behind it.

The pitch-black demon king has fully awakened!

Chapter 323 Blackhole...evoltion!

The second realm?!

The sheer power emanating from the Stardust Illusion made Megumi Ardan almost doubt his own eyes.

Could it be that during the six months she was recovering from her injury, the entire world of female horse racers had undergone earth-shattering changes?

This allows everyone to engage in two domains within a single match, which is why they all started domain-level battles early in the game.

No, that can't be.

Even looking at Ryan beside her and the noblewoman a little ahead, the surprised expressions on their faces were unmistakable.

There is only one abnormal being, and that is Stardust Illusion itself.

(Is this a miracle... like the healing miracle she performed on herself in that hospital room?)

The daze lasted only a moment before Meguro Ardan completely dispelled the images in his mind.

Now is not the time to focus on these things...

From the very beginning of the match, the people in front of him were constantly breaking out of their own domains and fighting each other, but Aldan was never able to keep up with their pace.

That's because she knows that even though her legs are no longer made of glass, the amount of training she had to reduce because of them is a real thing.

Compared to his two younger sisters and the noblewoman, Aldan's physical condition was simply insufficient to fully withstand the backlash from the domain.

Her only chance of victory lies in the final moments when she can unleash her power here and fight to the death with everyone.

This way, even after the field ends, there's no need to carry a heavy burden to complete the remaining races.

(Therefore, this position is now essential for me.)

Meguro Ardan looked down at the third bend. Once he finished this section, he would reach the final moment, where he had no choice but to give it his all.

Now, this is the final battle in this Takarazuka Memorial.

You must give it your all, unleash a final sprint that surpasses all other runners, and give it your all to become the champion.

I want to prove to everyone, and even more so to Stardust Illusion, that the miracle these legs are carrying is not in vain, and that I too can become the brightest star on the field!

All the forbearance we've endured has been for this moment; now is the time to reach the summit!

"Haaaaaaah—!"

Ardan's gaze suddenly changed, and the girl with the azure-colored hair rushed towards the figure in front of her, transforming into a comet with an unstoppable force and exploding with a deafening roar!

Aldan is no longer the same as before. She was once as fragile as glass, but now she has no weaknesses or flaws. All she has is this desperate and relentless power!

[Golden Skill: Full Body Spirit, Now Activated!]

(I will win, even if it costs me my life!)

That exceptionally strong posture, honed through countless trials, is the result of her unwavering desire accumulated since her debut, despite her fragile legs.

A thirst for victory, a thirst for glory!

Aldan, now completely ignoring all distractions on the field, was completely oblivious to everything else.

Unstoppable, her final sprint, unleashing all her power, transformed into her supreme glory right here!

"Now I've shed my glass shell and transformed into crystal!!!"

The momentum reached its peak when this declaration of defiance was roared out.

The heavily armored vehicles on the track fully deployed their main cannons, focusing their fire upon all the runners—

If anyone wants to experience her devastating kick, then come and try it!

(Then let her...give it a try.)

"...?!"

However, just as the girl leaned forward and took her final step, a soft chuckle suddenly echoed in Aldan's mind.

Those were thoughts that were absolutely not one's own; they were feelings conveyed by a second person who could never exist in one's heart.

It's just like……

It's like something is communicating with her directly through telepathy!

"Varied--"

Startled, I unconsciously cried out. I could feel something running beside me at the exact same speed as me, but I couldn't see anything in my sight.

Da da da da da!

The hurried footsteps were clearly coming from behind, but what was that thing beside me?!

The indescribable, terrifying presence made it impossible for Aldan to look away.

I want to see clearly, I want to see!

What exactly is the thing in front of me, the thing that is speaking to me?

A ghost? A demon? Or just a lingering memory residing on this field?

No, I shouldn't be thinking about these things... My hard-won concentration has been completely disrupted!

The footsteps beside him grew clearer and clearer, undoubtedly a sign that the other person was approaching.

Just as Megumi Ardan came to his senses, he turned his head slightly, wanting to see clearly who the newcomer was.

What met my eyes was a deep, unfathomable darkness!

The pitch-black aura suddenly spread out from the runner with long black hair in front of him, turning into a monster-like phantom in the sky above the track and then disappearing without a trace, turning into a sky full of black shadows that completely swallowed everything!

The runners behind him, their competitive spirit, even the shouts and footsteps on the field were completely swallowed up. Witnessing this scene, Meguro Ardan trembled all over, and his steps faltered instantly.

(What is this? I'm... scared?)

Aldan knew very well that this was not a reaction stemming from cowardice or fear, but rather a natural warning from her biological instincts, urging her to flee from the dark girl before her.

But how could that be?!

I was once a runner who had also entered the field, so even if I'm not as good as the other powerful racehorse girls, I should be close enough.

Even so, after witnessing the terrifying darkness emanating from the racehorse girl behind her, she instinctively felt the urge to submit—at a time when the race wasn't over yet?!

How could this be? It shouldn't be like this!

Aldan gritted his teeth again, trying to calm himself down.

However, the darkness had no intention of paying attention to her thoughts.

The black-clad runner ignored what lay ahead, fixing his gaze on another black and gold figure speeding ahead on the track.

Those were her "friends," friends who existed but could not be seen by others.

Manchester City Tea House pondered for a moment, then lowered his body and stomped his legs hard on the ground.

With a loud "bang!"

That wasn't a forward stride; it was as if the foot had completely shoveled up all the dirt on the ground, leaving only deep furrows for runners behind.

Her special talent, which was originally meant to be used on long-distance tracks, was displayed by Manchester City Tea House at this moment in the game, which is a symbol that she has mastered this skill to the extreme.
