Stop being a trainer!

"Although everyone in the training match said they were convinced and seemed to be afraid of me, I know that they actually have a trick up their sleeves and still have some strength left. What I hope is to run with all my might. I hope to have a brilliant duel with everyone, a scene that will dazzle everyone. It's like the one in the comics!"

"The kind where they fall to the ground exhausted and then praise each other?"

"That's it, uncle! He is indeed my trainer. We are so in tune with each other!"

"It's better to say that you have always had this attitude..."

"Yeah! Because Orphie and I have been training all the time, so I'm not sure how it's a real competition, but no matter what, you can't be more listless than Orphie when he's training, right?"

Looking at the other teams across the field training shuttle runs and fast-paced steps, Deep Impact's expression became a little profound.

"What I hope is that everyone can ignite their will and fighting spirit, and run without giving in in a real fight, rather than running in a training match, shouting that they can't do it when they see the other side has an advantage, and then taking a breath. There is no fun in running like this."

"I want to be a hero among horse racing girls, so I have to make my debut. I want to show people what the hero of my dreams looks like."

"So here I am. I'm going to have my debut match. That's it."

"..."

It is my responsibility. This is how it should be.

Looking at the serious deep impact, Kato Akiya couldn't help but smile and reached out to rub her little head.

Chapter 87: New Horse Class Debut Competition, Deep Impact (8th Update!)

On Friday, the debut race of the new horse class.

There are a total of five horse girls participating in the competition, which is neither too many nor too few for a rookie-level debut competition.

However, because this was the debut match of the first batch of Umamusume of the new era, some media and spectators came to watch. They claimed that they were collecting first-hand information, but in fact everyone knew exactly what they were doing.

If we talk about the debut competition of the first batch of horse girls, it actually started as early as June. Those are the real first batch of horse girls of the new era. Now some of them have already graced the OP-level competitions and various competitions of the new horse class. Although it is true that they have performed quite well compared with the previous era, they have not yet reached the level of surpassing.

The people who seemed to be chatting around, the spectators holding umbrellas in the rain who looked like passers-by, and even the trainers who seemed to be watching without paying any attention, actually knew who they were looking at. That was the legend of the new horse class in the Tresen campus, a real strong man who once even approached the tour horse girl in the internal training match. It can be said that he is the rising star of this country.

Tianxiang’s hero, great shock.

Even though it was just a debut competition, some people had already specially made various cheering slogans and signs, making it look very lively.

It was completely different from the usual training matches and internal open matches. The concentration and abilities contained were also different. The hostility and fighting spirit flashed like lightning, causing Da Zhen in the lounge to tremble all over.

"Hmm~~~ That's it! It's this feeling of electricity running through my body! This is fighting spirit! I can even feel my physical strength growing. It feels so good~"

"You say you just like running, but aren't you happier than anyone else when you see the battle?"

"Mmm, fighting is running, running is fighting, uncle is really a bad guy pretending not to understand?"

Stretching her legs in the lounge, she was trembling all over. She looked at the smiling man behind her with some dissatisfaction, and bumped her head towards him as if she was unwilling to do so.

It was a collision with great impact, the whole body was knocked forward, and Kato Akira groaned, with a bright smile on his face, and his little head drilled into the body like a small electric drill, and his ears hit the chest and abdomen with a snap.

Finally, he gently rested his head on Kato Akira's chest, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

"...Uncle stinks."

"Can't you say something touching right now?!"

"Because the current enemy is really unimpressive, I feel like I can win by just taking a walk."

He placed his head against Kato Akira's chest, and the deep impact on his ears gradually calmed down and rested on Kato Akira's chest.

No matter how confident they are, no matter how capable they are, in the first race, all horse girls will show a side that is different from usual.

Trainers may send off one horse girl after another, supporting one horse girl after another to step onto their own stage. But for horse girls, the beginning of every competition is unknown. They only have their own destiny to face.

Therefore, even the most unique horse girls, the most unimaginable horse girls, will become a little nervous in the real debut match. This is their first step, the first step of their steps into this world. The horse girls who can win in the debut match have already obtained the admission ticket to this cruel world.

And the Uma Girl whose goal is to become the whole world will also regard perfection in her debut match as the first step to becoming invincible.

So at this time, the horse girl who steps onto the racing field for the first time will always release the most authentic part of herself to the trainer.

There were similar scenes in other lounges, and now in front of Kato Akira, Deep Impact had the same feeling.

"Although I was confident, the feeling of a formal match was completely different from that of a training match. My hands and legs seemed to be shaking, my whole body was jumping, and I couldn't even control my strength."

She reached out and gently embraced Kato Akira, as if she was hugging her own treasure. She continued with the deep thrusts and took a deep breath in the man's arms, then her whole body relaxed.

"Uncle, I want to become a legend in this world. I want to be a horse girl who is faster than anyone else. I want to be a horse girl who can bring hope to everyone."

"Ah."

"Now is my first glorious step. Even though it doesn't make sense, I can feel that I will be stronger and more powerful than anyone else. I will become a truly strong man and win everything for this uncle."

"It's not for me, it's for yourself. You're a horse girl, right? Running is in your nature, and these are just the inevitable things you get on the way to victory. There's no need to be afraid or hesitant about this, you just need to move forward. I'll take all the responsibility, you just need to keep winning."

Touching the head that had been deeply struck, releasing the feeling of security, Kato Akira looked at the ceiling, as if he could see that moment filled with glory.

"So, you have to win. Only with strength can you realize your dreams, and only with ability can you make your voice heard by everyone. Even if you have to use a method that everyone fears, even if you have to use the method that you are best at, win."

"Well, I want to win everything. Even if it means crushing everyone's dignity, even if it means trampling on everyone's self-confidence, I will do it."

"Show the world that you are invincible."

"Well, I see."

He slowly loosened his hands that were holding Kato Akira, looked up at Kato Akira, and a spiral red light seemed to be burning in his pupils.

"I will crush the will of all the audience, and I will defeat all my enemies. I will use my own strength to prove that this world is an era where speed is supreme. So uncle, you just wait here for my good news."

"Then go ahead."

"I'm going."

After giving Kato Akira a thumbs up, Deep Impact closed the door, took a deep breath, and walked along the deep passage towards the competition venue.

In the drizzling rain, hundreds of people gathered together to look straight at the horse girl who walked out of the passage, constantly examining her form and steps, as if trying to find the answer to defeat her.

'But this is impossible, this is destined to be my time.'

After bowing slightly to the audience, Deep Impact walked towards the gate.

Chapter 88: Frozen Time (9th update!)

"The debut race for the new horse, 1,200 meters left on the grass, light rain. Now all the horse girls have entered the gate - let's start!"

“Great shock! A very beautiful exit! Although she was the horse girl behind, she gained a three-length advantage at the moment of exiting the gate, forcing the horse girls who were running away and ahead to waste their energy to adjust their positions and chase after her. But was this the right choice?”

"The 1,200-meter race is very short, but it is enough to support all the horse girls to burst out and clash with the domain. Now leading is number one, Dusk Sky. As a runaway horse girl, she is rapidly bursting out all her strength and moving forward. And the assistant said that traces of the domain have appeared on her body! Is this the new era? They are indeed excellent horse girls!"

"Stop making sarcastic remarks at this time, commentator! I didn't mean to open this!"

Using a field that consumes a lot of physical energy, when encountering the devil, Dusk Sky looked at the key county not far in front of him and gasped, feeling that the strength in his body was rapidly decreasing like a funnel.

The short distance of 1,200 meters gave her the confidence to use her unconventional domain. Compared with other people's domains, her domain was also extremely special among all the horse girls. She could increase her speed and burst for a long time at the cost of several times the physical consumption.

The longer it lasts, the faster the energy is consumed. Although many people often regard his domain as a deeply twisted bond with the trainer, for Dusk Sky, the relationship between her and the trainer has not yet reached the level of life and death. Her domain, the Demon Time, is more like using physical energy to distort her own time.

Consume all your physical strength, turn it into speed and infuse it into your feet and mind, expanding your whole body's perception to the limit. If the distance is even more than 2,000 meters, using this field is equivalent to suicide.

But now, the distance is only 1,200 meters! And the enemy is still a terrifying monster! Even if it's just once, I might be able to win with such a broken field!

She gritted her teeth and looked at the turning point. Her specially trained arc technique allowed her to instantly grab the best position. She glared at the short straight road ahead.

"It's coming! It's coming soon! It's coming—"

……Eh?

Feeling his physical energy being expended dramatically, he suddenly sensed a strange abnormality in the dusk sky.

Thoughts, actions, and everything around seemed to be covered with a layer of gray water waves, gradually dimming and slowing down, covering everything in the world with an incomprehensible layer of dull gray.

When I was running, the fences around me and my own thoughts were all covered in the same gray. But there was also an indescribable strange feeling. It seemed like I had stopped, but it also seemed like nothing had changed, making me so irritated that I wanted to vomit blood.

What is that? What happened? What happened? If it is a field, how can there be such a field?

If this is the field, then wouldn't it mean that even I am dragged down by this thing?

"Is time...frozen...?"

It was not a chill, nor was it so-called solidification, nor was it even any state of feeling.

Thoughts also slowed down, steps also slowed down, everyone was the same. It was as if time itself was gradually slowing down.

The cheers from the stands were stretched into ridiculous and bizarre sounds. The air around them seemed to have stagnated into solidified mercury. One could even clearly see the drizzle sliding down and dripping onto the grassland in front of them.

Time was slowed down.

Everyone, everything in this world, all senses were slowed down.

No matter what it is, even the domain initiator himself will be slowed down to the synchronized speed by this thing.

It can even be said that, to a certain extent, this field does not exist at all, because its ability is simply to slow down all time, including that of the field initiator himself.

Because if it weren't for the uniqueness of her field, even her thinking wouldn't feel anything unusual.

But precisely because of this, precisely because of being able to feel that abnormality, one can experience the true horror that comes from the torrent of time.

The meaning of that field is simple.

She just wanted to enjoy the joy of running longer, that's all.

'Boom boom boom——'

Coming from behind was a series of footsteps that sounded like drumbeats.

It was more like a rainstorm than a drumbeat. Although the pace was slowing down, the pace was even more intense than expected.

He didn't even have time to think more. He just turned his head desperately, wanting to see how terrifying and powerful the person who came was. However, in just a moment of this action, the fine rainstorm instantly roared to his side.

"Oh yeah? Can you feel it?"

Amid the long pulling sounds and cries, and under her bloodshot gaze, the monster called the hero Tianxiang ran side by side with her, smiling.

"As expected, everyone is hiding something during training. If you could see my domain, you would have said it earlier. Wouldn't it be boring like this? Ah, it seems like you can only sense it, but there is no way to communicate, right? What a pity, I have to train more in the future. I'll leave first, bye~"

"—!"

After saying a bunch of words to itself, the monster just ran forward in the cold, stagnant time.

She couldn't catch up, couldn't feel anything, and didn't even have the courage to chase. Just by looking at the hero's pace that was far beyond that of an ordinary person, she felt what true despair was.

There are two ways for Uma Musume to run: one is to take long strides, which covers a longer distance and has a stronger explosive force, and the other is to take short strides, which uses quick leg exchanges to gain an advantage. She herself is a practitioner of the short stride method.

But even without this layer of time interference, she had no way of reaching the pace of the monster in front of her. In real time, on the field now, how terrifying and fast was her figure?

That is light.

Only light can chase time.

Even in the blink of an eye, the light was projected from the sky and instantly penetrated the finish line.

'One move across the finish line! Big shock! The deep impact on the world has begun! Refreshing the field record by about four seconds! Unimaginable explosive power and last-minute kick, this is Tianxiang's heroic shock! World, look! The real legend has begun! ! '

Chapter 89: Now that things have come to this, let’s eat first! (The tenth update!)

"That thing... is a domain? Didn't Rudolf know about it for so long?"

"Perhaps. Because in my impression, the previous big shock was not such a field, but the acceleration of the field itself."

"Dual mode?... Uma Musume is getting more and more terrifying these days. I feel a lot of pressure, sis. I was very nervous the last time I faced the Mejiro family."

"Isn't it because it's not fully bloomed?"

"Well, I won't do anything self-destructive like Mankai, you know? What I pursue is running freely, you know."

Putting down the monocular in his hand, Maruzenski smiled and made an unusual V-sign that was popular in the 1960s and 1970s to Rudolph, who was wearing black stockings and had a cautious look on his face.

There were few participants in the new horse race, and there was one race almost every day, so there weren't many horse racing girls to watch. Apart from professional practitioners and people who were bored, there were rarely any other so-called fans.

Moreover, the new horse races don’t even have an on-site system. After all, the only ones who can enter the field are the horse girls who have applied for it themselves. It costs a lot of money to open an on-site system, which is not worth the effort in the new horse races. Therefore, only the big prizes above G3 level will open the on-site system to experience the live situation and the scene.

Ordinary humans cannot sense the domain, so they have no idea of ​​the weird hysteresis that seems to have split time and space. But Uma Musume can sense how terrifying it is that the domain indiscriminately delays everyone, including herself. In a sense, this domain is meaningless because it literally stretches time.

If everyone's time is stretched equally, whether it's the enemy's or your own, then it means that no one's time is stretched.

However, from a competition perspective, there is no area more terrifying than this.
