Stop being a trainer!

"Why don't you turn it around and give it a try?"

"Oh, thank you."

The chestnut-haired girl squatted on the ground and thanked him, then successfully stuck the door frame into the gap. Then, as if she realized something, her tail and ears instantly stretched straight, and the whole horse girl trembled.

"Well, I heard from my seniors that this wooden door frame can be opened directly, but after I opened it, I couldn't put it back..."

"...For the horse girl, it can be opened, but if you want to put it back, you need to consider the position."

Looking at the shivering figure, Kato Akira rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.

"Also, what are you doing here so late at night?"

"Eh? Ah, I just wanted to celebrate Uncle's birthday as the first one here at night. No, is that not okay?"

The goldsmith who was still squatting in the corner looked at Kato Akira nervously and asked in a low voice without confidence.

Chapter 60: Can I Stay Overnight? (First Update!)

It was already twelve o'clock in the evening, but the lights in Kato Akira's trainer dormitory were brightly on.

"Here, drink some water and calm down."

"Ah, yes..."

Seeing Kato Akira showing a simple and honest smile, the goldsmith held the glass of water obediently, his ears and tail wagging constantly, and it seemed that he had calmed down.

To be honest, Kato Akira felt very sleepy and wanted to sleep. However, facing this little girl who came to celebrate his birthday in the middle of the night, Kato Akira still felt a little sleepless. After all, even though he knew that the horse girls were a group of innocent and simple elves, he was still a little scared by their current appearance.

I sneaked into the trainer's dormitory in the middle of the night, wanting to be the first to celebrate with him. This was indeed a good thought, and Kato Akira felt warm in his heart, and there was nothing wrong with it. But when he directly opened the door and came in, he found that the door frame was stuck. He poked at the door frame for a long time, but it didn't work in the end. Kato Akira still felt a little bit stuck.

Looking at Kato Akira's half-smile, the goldsmith blushed with embarrassment, and his tail swept back and forth below.

Although it is very dangerous to call a junior high school girl into the room, Kato Akira used to pay attention to these things, but now, how should we put it? Should we say that he has let it go, or is this just Treson, even Kato Akira himself doesn't care much about it.

Life at Tresen College is like this. Either you adapt to the special rules here, or you become a rule yourself. So Kato Akira didn't say anything. He just sat next to the goldsmith in his pajamas, quietly looking at the wall clock, waiting for time to pass.

In fact, when sitting with people, the feeling of time passing quietly is not as uncomfortable as imagined. You can feel the body temperature of the people around you and hear the subtle breathing. And on this night, there are no unique sounds or collisions coming from all directions. It is a very quiet night for Kato Akira.

The goldsmith did not say much, but just sat there quietly, wagging his tail from time to time, and seemed quite happy.

"So, how did you come up with the idea of ​​coming to my place in the middle of the night to give me a birthday?"

Sitting on the sofa, Kato Akira looked at the gradually moving hour and minute hands, sighed softly, took a sip of tea, and asked in a low voice:

"Besides, you're making too much noise like this. It might disturb the neighbors and the people around you. You're not my responsibility yet. If someone reports you, it won't be good for you."

"Because my sister used to celebrate my birthday like this, just like now, suddenly barging in at night and so on, my sister said this is a normal birthday celebration. So I also want to celebrate this way for uncle."

"..."

Dream Journey, it turns out that this is what you did.

Looking at the somewhat embarrassed goldsmith, Kato Akira thought of the image of a dwarf laughing arrogantly.

Then I thought of a poor man who looked very unlucky, with no visible scars on the surface, but was probably bleeding inside.

However, the goldsmith did not notice Kato Akira's thoughts, but nodded naturally.

"Besides, uncle didn't celebrate my birthday a while ago, so I was thinking if I could give uncle a birthday surprise... or something... It looks like I messed it up again, hehehe."

"..."

It is difficult to describe what kind of mood a beautiful and incredibly girl feels when she smiles so simply.

It was hard for Kato Akira to describe his feelings. Although he was touched by Zhou Ningjing, who was the first to give him a birthday present, he was also shocked and touched by the goldsmith who came over in the middle of the night and secretly dismantled the door frame to make him happy.

In the past, Kato Akira had always lived a rather formal life. Although he had bought a house, now after considering his life trajectory and normal career planning, the house became the special residence of the kid Day and Night. Although Day and Night cried and even knelt on the ground begging not to leave, Kato Akira still chose to stay in this trainer dormitory.

Why? He always felt a strange, uneasy feeling in his heart. So he could only use continuous work and continuous actions to convince himself that all his actions were meaningful. His intuition was very good, so he could help others and make them feel warm in such a world. This behavior was meaningful.

And now, this action also constantly returns the warmth back to him. Just like the silly goldsmith smiling in front of him. And looking at the smiling horse girl, Kato Akira couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pinch her smooth face.

The goldsmith looked at Kato Akira who was pinching his cheeks and twitched his ears in surprise.

"? Uncle? What's wrong?"

"No, I just thought you had a really good personality... With such a soft personality, what would you do if someone robbed you of the lead in the competition?"

"It's okay. If someone comes to snatch it from me, I will just knock them all away in one swoop!"

As if to show off his abilities, the chestnut-haired ball waved his hands happily, as if he was beating up his imaginary enemies.

But no matter how you look at it, the goldsmiths are the short ones among the horse girls. Although they seem to be cold and fierce, in fact, they will probably suffer a great loss in a real collision on the arena.

But, let's not say such depressing words at this moment.

Kato Akira was very clear about this.

"Anyway, thank you for your concern, goldsmith. I am very happy."

"Eh? I, I haven't given uncle a real birthday present yet."

"Birthday gift? There's no need to rush for that. I understand your feelings very well, but it's not the right thing to stay like this forever. You should go back first. We can talk about anything after you wake up."

"But, but I heard that it only counts as a birthday gift if you sleep together..."

The two hands were entangled together somewhat nervously. The goldsmith looked up at Kato Akira in front of him with pity and whispered:

"I don't want to go back tonight. I want to spend the night with uncle. Is this idea... not allowed...?"

Chapter 61: My elder brother is not at home (Second update!)

When the lights in Kato Akira's trainer's office were on, it seemed that a house far away also had lights on.

Day and night are equally divided, a horse girl who was born with the memory of another world, a horse girl who was born with infinite power, a natural horse girl who sees herself as an indispensable part of saving the current horse girl world.

Day and Night Equals never doubted her own abilities and judgments, and never worried about her own behavior and actions. For her, as long as she could improve the abilities of the horse girls, then anything was fine. As long as she could make all the horse girls stronger and make all the horse girls become a footnote to greatness, then she didn't care at all.

Even if it was her beloved brother, she could dedicate it to other horse girls. Even if it was the technology she developed herself or others developed, she could offer it with both hands, just to witness the birth of the strongest horse girl. But now, in the empty boudoir, feeling the cold air around her, she felt an unprecedented, even terrifying sense of loneliness.

There were no people within a few kilometers. Even with Uma Musume's hearing, she couldn't hear any ordinary conversations or voices around her. Only the sounds of mosquitoes, insects, rats and ants were constantly echoing, constantly forming one lonely note after another in her mind.

I had never felt such loneliness and coldness before in Xiaoxue's Umamusume dormitory, but now, even though I have entered junior high school and live in my brother's house, I feel this loneliness.

I stared blankly at the ceiling, not knowing what to say or do. I just looked up at the sky, with a numb blank in my mind.

"Why did it turn out like this? Three goddesses, shouldn't everything be done according to my ideas...?"

Looking at the unshakable light bulb, Day and Night felt an inexplicable sense of panic.

Things seemed to be going from bad to worse since she started taking action.

Defeating those horse girls who had lost their will to run was the right thing to do, but after that, Emperor Rudolf simply stopped running and devoted himself to the right work.

What about the Emperor of the East Sea? She did not give up and was still fighting hard on the real battlefield, but the madness and strength that could burn herself were completely gone, and she had become a second-rate thing. Even her running posture could only be described as a wreckage.

As for that inexplicable human, Day and Night Equal Division was very clear about Kato Akira's bland views on horse racing girls, and also knew what humans thought. So she wanted to stop this from happening, and even won over other horse racing girls. But now look, what is the final result? That human is just a junior trainer, and Kato Akira still has a trainer friend, but she can only stay here because of the leak.

It was great, a big house with a total area of ​​several hundred square meters, plenty of decoration and food, and all kinds of good things. Except for the absence of my elder brother, everything was great.

Even if she knelt down and cried to her brother not to leave her, it was meaningless. Her brother, who had been very obedient to her, showed unprecedented indifference and toughness, and told her to study hard here and not to think about those unnecessary things.

But what did she do wrong? It was everyone's common wish to make all the horse girls happy and run and gallop in this world together. Everyone thought so. The world should start to move according to their own ideas. She was the chosen one. But why?

Why? Why? Why did she feel so much pain and reluctance when she was the one who sincerely wanted all the horse girls to run together and improve their strength? Why did she feel so lonely and cold? Why did her brother, who had always believed in her and even doted on her, treat her so coldly? Why? Why?

My dear brother, I have always respected you and loved you very much, but why did you treat me like this?

Looking at the incandescent light shining above my head, I could only feel boundless grievances and pain lingering in my heart like darkness day and night.

Even if she became the first, even if she was the representative of the new students and gave a speech on stage, even if all her peers feared and admired her, Day and Night found that she no longer felt happy.

Because her brother abandoned her.

Although he didn't give up in the true sense, his actions truly put her in this lonely environment.

And looking at the blazing white light bulb hanging from the ceiling, she began to think about it in equal parts day and night. She looked at the huge bright object, and her mind began to swirl and wander, integrating a series of concepts into her thoughts.

She thought about everything about Kato Akira, the changes brought about by her actions, and the strange situation after she tried to stop them. Then she thought about the consequences and influence caused by Kato Akira's step-by-step approach, and looked at the light on the ceiling, which was divided equally between day and night, and vaguely came to a conclusion that might be the truth.

"Haste makes waste... Did I do something wrong? Should I not have intervened in such an environment, but let them change and innovate themselves in a closed environment? Is this the right answer?"

'Because of my arrogance and actions, many evolutions that should have continued were stopped. It was my fault. My recklessness and underestimation of the enemy led to a series of events. It was because of my existence and my promotion that the Emperor of the East Sea and the Symbol of Rudolph were unable to fight a father-son battle, and they ended up in the current state of neither up nor down.'

'It is also because of my existence that the current Tresen Academy has begun to see this world. The original path of internal cycle growth has gradually stopped. Although there are signs of another path, it has seen the overseas situation halfway through and has gradually become the state of the outside world, instead of developing and innovating on its own and reforming into a state that no one knows about... Am I the root of the problem? '

Looking at the ceiling, the eyes that were divided equally between day and night gradually became unclear.

Chapter 62: Uneasy, beginning to gather (3rd update!)

Night often means anxiety and terror.

Whether for humans or horse girls, the night means a kind of weird and absurd horror.

No one can explain clearly where this feeling of fear and terror comes from, just as no one knows why humans and horse girls feel such strong fear when they see creatures that look like humans and horse girls but are not at all human or horse girls.

It was just that at night, everything seemed to become extremely fragile. Even Day and Night, who claimed to be the favorite of the three goddesses and believed that she was the savior of the world, now felt the coldness and pain of the night. She began to have a real feeling about the night and suffering for the first time.

At first, she didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, Kato Akira was the other half of her, a part of her soul. What was wrong with her seeing him? It was more like hiding information from the other part of her. This was really excessive. If you still hide information from yourself, you can't even think about what you want to do in the future.

But what she didn't expect was that after the news was spread, Kato Akira didn't scold her or slowly complain about her like before, but looked at the Equal Day and Night with a very strange look.

"You know that trust between people is something that must be observed, right?"

'Well, of course I do.'

'Then why do you do this?'

"Because you are a part of me, brother. I want all the horse girls to run freely and happily. What if you suddenly break the chain at this time? I will never allow such a thing. Brother, you must forget about humans and become the savior of horse girls."

"So that's what you think... It seems that there is indeed a contradiction between our perceptions."

From that day on, Kato Akira always had a thoughtful expression on his face.

But at that time, Day and Night were Equal and she didn't know what this expression meant, nor did she know what its meaning was. She still looked at her mobile phone naturally every day, and then continued to pass messages to other horse racing girls, trying to make Kato Akira wake up, become the savior of horse racing girls, and bring a unique feast to the world.

Then one day, he suddenly informed Day and Night on his mobile phone that he would not be living there anymore, but would be living with the trainers in the dormitory of the Tresen Academy. At first, Day and Night were excited about this.

Doesn't this prove that Kato Akira has completely come to his senses? This is a good thing, sisters, my brother has finally decided to move into Tresen College at this time.

Then I realized that the equal division of day and night did not seem to be a good thing for me.

Because she had to go back home to live every day, although she saved some boarding fees, she had to cook and do everything else by herself.

In the past, Kato Akira would prepare some food, and then Day and Night would come up and eat directly. But now she needs to buy food and cook for herself. Especially as a horse girl, Day and Night gradually feel a little lonely when there is no one in front of her.

Then, in the middle of the night, she could no longer run into Kato Akira's room and babble about a bunch of theories and behaviors about horse racing girls, nor could she watch him do things as normal.

This is not a big deal. After all, Kato Akira can do it in the trainer's office and the trainer's lounge. It is a very natural thing.

But, how should I put it, I feel a little lonely with the day and night being equally divided.

So the last time Kato Akira came back, she was a little hesitant and hoped that Kato Akira could come back to live with them.

However, the figure who had always seemed to dote on him looked at her with a very strange look, and then said as a matter of course:

"No need, I just came back to get something. And you seem very mature, more independent than I thought. So for the safety of both of us, it's better to separate from each other."

"…Huh?"

"Because if you think about it carefully, I am not your real brother, and you are not my real sister. We are both clear about this, right? So this house will belong to you from now on, and I will just live in Tresen College for a while. After all, you are also a middle school student, and it may not be right for me to continue living together like this."

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Brother! I have never thought of this! You are my brother, I have never thought of anything else!"

"But I have thought about it carefully. I have thought about it since I met Uma Musume. It seems that it is not good to always treat you as an ordinary sister, and after that day I also realized that we are not really connected in spirit."

"What are you going to say? Brother, please don't do this, I really beg you!"

"I'm sorry, day and night are equal. I've been very happy in the past six months, but you're already in the first grade, so it's time to give up this game and become a good horse girl, right? I'm still waiting for the day when you'll make a big splash in two years. If you have any questions, just call or text me, I'll be watching at all times."

"Brother, why! Why is this happening?!"

"..."

Obviously knowing all the hints.
