A cute girl’s heart is capable of anything

She raised her head and looked at the starry sky, which was covered by thick clouds and only a few stars were still shining.

"……not enough."

She lowered her head, looked at her legs, and murmured to herself.

Only to this extent is far from enough.

If she wants to fulfill the agreement with her, she must become faster.

"Fight alone...and win alone!"

"Oops? Do you like someone?"

The voice that I thought would not be heard by anyone got a response at this moment.

"Who?!"

The brown-haired horse girl was startled by the sudden sound behind her, trembled, and then turned around to look.

"Sorry, did I scare you?"

She saw a black-haired horse girl walking towards her with a smile.

"You are……"

The brown-haired horse girl felt that the horse girl in front of her looked strangely familiar and spoke hesitantly.

"My name is 'Qingzhu Fengya'~?"

The black-haired horse girl pointed at herself and introduced herself with a smile: "What about you? Beautiful girl?"

"I love Orihime."

The brown-haired horse girl finished her self-introduction in a short sentence and turned around with a cold face, intending to continue her previous training.

"No more words to say?"

Seeing his admiration for Orihime turn around, Qingzhu Fengya smiled and caught up with her.

"I think that's enough."

He admired Orihime and didn't want to talk to her anymore, so he quickened his pace: "...You and I don't know each other deeply, so this self-introduction is enough."

"Wow... what a cold girl."

After hearing these words spoken by his admirer Orihime, Qingzhu Fengya paused.

Then, she looked at the other person's back, and the smile on her face grew stronger.

"...I'm becoming more and more interested in you~?"

Please save this school that is about to be abandoned! : Chapter 242: You are a blessed child

"...why are you still here?"

Admiring Orihime looked impatiently at the black-haired horse girl standing side by side: "Aren't you going back?"

"Of course~?"

Qingzhu Fengya replied with a smile: "...How can I let a girl stand here alone?"

"I don't need your company."

Admiring Orihime without hesitation: "I want to be alone."

"Even if you say so, I won't leave."

The black-haired horse girl replied with a smile.

...Why does this guy look like a piece of candy?

Admiring Orihime, who was dissatisfied with Qingzhu Fengya's entanglement and the answer just now, frowned.

Is this guy too thick-skinned?

"Can I run with you?"

"No."

After refusing in a concise manner, Admiring Orihime paused, and then asked: "...when will you leave?"

"Ugh-"

After hearing these words spoken by his admirer Orihime, Qingzhu Fengya covered his face and let out a mournful cry.

"Is that why you don't want to see me?"

"Ah."

Admiring Orihime nodded without hesitation: "You have affected my training."

"Huh? With a beautiful girl like me beside you, do you actually value 'training' more?"

"of course."

Adoring Orihime nodded indifferently.

"Woooooooo..."

Hearing those words spoken by his admirer Orihime, Qingzhu Fuya let out an obvious fake cry.

However, his love for Orihime remained unmoved.

...Can you please leave quickly?I still need to train.

Looking at the black-haired horse girl who was pretending to cry, she admired Orihime and said this wordlessly.

"Okay, okay, since you don't want to see me so much, let's just say goodbye."

Qingzhu Fengya, who was being stared at closely, had a regretful expression on his face.

"But...I won't give up~"

Just when Admiring Orihime thought she was finally going back, the black-haired horse girl in front of her changed the topic.

She took a few steps forward, closing the distance between herself and the brown-haired horse girl to the last ten centimeters.

She looked at Orihime, who had an uncomfortable expression on her face due to the sudden distance, and said with a smile.

"I want to be friends with you."

“I prefer to be alone than in a group of people.”

Admiring Orihime, she refused.

"Even if you say so, I won't give up~"

The black-haired horse girl straightened her back quite proudly.

"Maybe if you persist, you will agree to me?"

"I don't think this should be described by the word 'persistence'."

Admiring Orihime's tone was still lukewarm.

"is it?"

However, the black-haired horse girl in front of her seemed not to hear what she was saying, and was still smiling: "I think... she is such a beautiful girl, it would be a pity not to smile more. ?"

"..."

He admired Orihime and said nothing more, just looked at her quietly.

"Okay, okay, I know, stop looking at me like that."

Qingzhu Fengya smiled and took a step back: "Since you don't want to see me... then I'll leave for now."

"I look forward to our meeting again in the future~"

After saying this, the black-haired horse girl waved her hand, then hummed and walked away.

Admiring Orihime, she watched her walk away, finally stopping somewhere in the training ground.

...This guy also came for 'morning exercise'?

Looking at the black-haired horse girl who had already started to do warm-up exercises, Admiring Orihime thought in her heart.

...Forget it, what to do with so many thoughts.

Keep training for the vow you once made!

"Oh... what a serious and good boy."

Standing in the distance, watching the admiring Orihime start running again, Qingzhu Fuga looked up at the still dark sky.

...It's still some time before dawn.

After muttering something quietly, Qingzhu Fengya looked at the still dark track in front of her and took a deep breath.

Then run first!

Thinking of this, Qingzhu Fengya moved his center of gravity forward and assumed a starting posture.

Get ready—run—!

Before the word 'run' came to mind, Qingzhu's elegant body flew out like an arrow from a string.

Steady on your feet.

"……what?"

But just after taking the first step, she noticed something was wrong with her body and let out a soft sigh subconsciously.

...My body seems to have become lighter?

"Oh!"

But before her doubts were over, her body had already taken the second step forward.

It’s not an illusion, my body has really become so light!

It feels... like I can fly!

Feeling the wind blowing in front of her, Qingzhu Fengya, who was excited about this change in her body, used the soles of her feet to speed up.

Now I...can run faster!

In this way, I can get closer and closer to my mother!

In order to become a strong racing girl like my mother!

"..."

Since there were only two of them on the training ground, Qingzhu's elegant movements and admiration for Orihime could still be seen to some extent.

Is this the racing girl who maintains a perfect winning record today?

Undefeated...the dark phantom on the field...

Admiring Orihime clenched her fists.

If I meet her on the field in the future, no matter what, I will beat her!

...Because, I swore to you.

She looked up at the sky that was already turning fish belly white and murmured silently.

……

"sister!"

When the sky turned white and a small part of the sun showed up, the petite horse girl came to the training ground.

When she saw Qingzhu Fengya running on the training ground just like yesterday, she had a surprised expression on her face.

"Oops? Mi Yu, you're here."

Qingzhu Fengya, who stopped when he heard the call, turned towards the petite black-haired Ma Niang: "Good morning, Mi Yu."

"...Sister-sama, did you have another strange dream?"

Looking at the black-haired horse girl standing in front of her, the petite horse girl asked worriedly.

"Isn't it really a nightmare?"

"Well, it's more of a ridiculous dream than a nightmare."
