Uma Musume, do I have to tell you that I know how to use the Santa Hat special move?

Beihei and Guangzuan both felt an indescribable sense of oppression, and with it came a severe cold that made them tremble.

The lounge in front of me seemed to have instantly transformed into a world of ice and snow. In the vast world, apart from the heavy snow, there were only three huge icicles towering into the sky...

At this moment, the beating heart was directly grasped by invisible claws, and the right to fear was completely deprived...

Suddenly, in the thickest ice pillar in the center, which required hundreds of people holding hands to hug it, six blood-red eyes as big as truck heads lit up.

The momentary chill disappeared before Beihei and Guangzuan could react, and the world in front of them returned to the state of the lounge just now, as if nothing had happened just now.

However, the malice and murderous aura lingering in the two's hearts... and the overwhelming presence of the Stardust Illusion in front of them that made it almost impossible to look away, told them that the Stardust Illusion in front of them was serious!

"Um, um, Master Stardust Illusion, if Xiaobei has offended you..."

Guang Zuan tried hard to suppress his trembling body, protecting Northern Black Horse behind him, and wanted to appease the Overlord's anger by apologizing.

However, McQueen knew that Stardust was a monster, so once his fighting spirit was ignited, how could it be so easily appeased?

(However, Stardust would not do anything really excessive, so let them just recognize a little bit of the terrifying existence of the [Domain Level] in advance, right?)

Sighing again, McQueen leaned lazily on the sofa and watched the Stardust illusion play out.

"Click..."

The monster opened its mouth slightly, completely ignoring the persuasion of Satomi Mitsuzumi in front of it, and cast its gaze towards the Northern Black Horse behind her:

"You can regard that as a declaration of war against me, right?"

“Yeah… Yeah!!!”

Under the pressure of this terrifying presence, Beihei subconsciously responded in a low voice.

But she immediately realized the weakness of her previous answer, and hurriedly gritted her teeth and said "hmm" again loudly.

Staring at the stardust illusion through the light diamond, cold sweat ran down Bei Hei's cheeks.

She had never thought that just being stared at could cause such a terrifying feeling of oppression.

The alarm bells in her mind were beating like crazy, urging her not to move even a little bit.

If you act recklessly again...

"I will completely defeat you and crush you without mercy."

The Stardust Illusion grinned, revealing those pale teeth that made people feel creepy, and a whimpering laugh came from deep in his throat:

“Hahahahahahaha… That’s true. The Neon Derby will be the second competition between the Emperor and me.”

"but……"

Winter was approaching, and in the blink of an eye the two of them were back in the snowy land.

The whistling cold wind blew up the snowflakes, blowing across Bei Hei and Guang Zuan's cheeks like ice knives.

The ice pillar in the middle, which was like a stabilizing force, suddenly began to show cracks one after another.

The crack seemed small at first, but it quickly spread to the entire icicle and then became more and more severe.

A pitch-black aura of destruction emanated from the cracks. A dragon beast so terrifying that it could shake the entire world was about to awaken—!

I...I...I'm scared...?

Beibu Xuanju suddenly grasped his wrist which had begun to tremble, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

After what happened just now, she knew that the situation was just caused by momentum and other things, but...

I know it's an illusion, so why am I so scared that I'm shaking! ?

Suddenly, a dragon roar that seemed to shatter the entire earth came from the ice pillar. Before Guang Zuan and Bei Hei could cover their ears, they heard this roar that symbolized the destruction of the world.

““Neon Derby…””

That was the sound of Stardust Illusion, but it was also a dragon roar that could destroy everything. Northern Black Pony couldn't even tremble his little fingers under the roar, and could only stand there and listen:

““The Neon Derby…will also be my victory!!!”””

"..."

I wanted to open my mouth to refute, I wanted to shout that only the emperor would be the winner of the derby.

but.

(I can’t do anything…!)

In his heart, Northern Xuanju felt very frustrated about his current weakness.

He clearly supported Emperor Dongha so much, but at this moment he couldn't speak up to support her... He was completely frightened by the aura of the Stardust Illusion.

This is really outrageous!

"Declaring war on me, that's it."

Everything vanished the moment this sentence was spoken, and the stardust illusion completely retracted the terrifying aura just now.

Since they have declared war on me, I must at least be able to deal with momentum of this level. This was what Stardust Illusion had planned from the beginning.

Although Kitaguchi Xuanju and Satomi Kozuna in front of him had revealed trembling expressions of fear under their momentum, they were still standing in front of him.

It’s already very good that you can stick to your own ideas and not give up.

After exchanging a glance with McQueen behind him, Stardust Illusion squatted in front of the two of them, chuckled and said to the black-haired girl:

"If you want to challenge me, then remember this feeling in your heart and work hard to become stronger."

The Stardust Illusion stretched out his hands and touched the heads of the two little girls who had not yet recovered from their shock.

"Whether it's me, Emperor, or McQueen, we all came step by step like this. There is absolutely no shortcut."

"Whether it's a race or a run, as McQueen said, success requires effort, talent, and luck. Of these, the only thing we can control is effort, right? So for the sake of victory... do your best."

"I have made a promise with you... I will be the Overlord who defeated the Emperor and await your challenge."

"North. Department. Xuan. Ju!"

Holding his breath, Bei Hei watched as the Stardust illusion stretched his fist out in front of him.

She had thought of many ways to deal with the Stardust Illusion, but she had never expected it to be something like this.

The Stardust Illusion had been bursting out with such a strong momentum from the very beginning that Bei Hei even thought that she was just treating him as a child and wanted to scare him and get away with it.

but now……

"Are you treating me as a formal challenger?"

The girl raised her head and asked.

"Ah, of course it is."

Stardust Illusion nodded as a matter of course, and moved his fist again to signal the other party to bump fists:

"We've come to this point... there's no way you're treating the agreement as a joke, right?"

"Ugh——!"

After a moment, Northern Xuanju understood the meaning of this sentence.

Stardust Illusion has already won a G1-level prize event, and even the record between her and the Emperor is 1 win and 1 loss... Does he really regard her as an opponent?

This was simply proof that I could become a strong runner like her!

"Well, it's a deal then!"

Suppressing his excitement and pride, Beihei's voice became much higher.

She tried to pretend that she didn't care at all, stretched out her little fist and bumped it with the Stardust Illusion's fist, then continued:

"Whether it's the emperor or me, we will definitely be able to defeat you. Just wait, Great Demon King!"

Chapter 250 I Hate You Like a Block of Wood (

"Xingchen, no matter what, you can't bully little fans, right?"

On the way home, McQueen sat in the back seat of the Mejiro family's special car and gave earnest advice to the girl next to him.

Just now in the lounge, although Northern Black Horse finally seemed to have recovered under heavy pressure, he once again issued a declaration of war to the Stardust Illusion that was threatening him.

But Mitsuru Satomi, who was standing aside, did not perform so well. Even McQueen could see that the little girl was scared to death.

It was purely out of a desire to protect his friend that he insisted on standing still and enduring the monster's pressure without taking a single step back.

McQueen, who knew Stardust Illusion, of course knew that Stardust Illusion actually had no ill intentions - on the contrary, as Northern Xuanju understood, she showed obvious hostility and fighting spirit because Stardust Illusion regarded the child as a real opponent.

Even though they haven't even started to become characters yet, they are still far from the strength that active horse girls should have.

"Northern Xuanju and Satomi Hikari..."

Stardust Illusion sat back in the comfortable leather chair, slightly closing his eyes and smiling:

"They will definitely achieve something in the future. They have left a deep impression on these two children. I'm sure they will meet sooner or later, right?"

"Last time, you treated that kid who liked opera much better, and we even held hands..."

McQueen muttered inwardly, lowered her eyelids slightly, and brought the conversation back to the point:

"Next, Stardust, you will have to prepare well for the Neon Derby, right? That's why you took a day off to watch my game in order to get a chance to have a training match with the players of the Mejiro family..."

For McQueen, today's victory in the Spring Festival Gala is the day she is reborn.

The years that had always seemed dull due to the heavy responsibilities, suddenly became insignificant in the face of the dazzling light after reaching the finish line.

Plus, she witnessed this moment with her own eyes...

Thinking of this, McQueen glanced at the unconscious Stardust Illusion and sighed silently in his heart.

If you are a person with a little emotional intelligence, you will certainly answer like this:

[I came to the scene to support McQueen. ]

[Three generations of consecutive champions have been achieved. This is a moment that must be witnessed with one's own eyes... It has nothing to do with anything else. I just want to see McQueen rush to the finish line with my own eyes...]

Unfortunately, Stardust Vision is not such a sweet-talking character.

Forget about saying nice things that everyone can understand. Once this guy gets involved in competitions, training, and the like, he is too lazy to even use social etiquette and looks completely ignorant of the ways of the world.

For example, if it were a stardust illusion, I would probably only answer myself like this:

"Ah, I would like to ask Ryan and McQueen to run a training race with me. It would be even better if other people could participate."

This was not unexpected at all to McQueen. Even the expression on Stardust Illusion's face was not far from what she expected. He was simply concerned about the part related to training.

(Oh... never mind, that's just her character, right?)

At least in the aspects that Xingchen is interested in, the Mejiro family is naturally gifted and has already surpassed others by a lot.

Cheer up, McQueen!

McQueen gave himself a big boost in his emotions, but he remained calm and kept his elegant smile on his face:

"Then let's arrange it around May 5th? This way the time will be easier to coordinate... As for the specific personnel, I will go back and discuss with everyone before confirming, how do you think?"

"Maybe not on May 5th..."

Hearing McQueen's words, Stardust Illusion suddenly looked embarrassed.

She shook her head, then pulled out a crumpled schedule from her bosom and smoothed it out on her lap:

“5月12日，我将会参加G1级的东京英里赛，所以训练赛时间最好能放在5月5日之前。”

"Because I promised Super Creek that I would not allow myself to become completely exhausted within 7 days before the competition, so as not to affect my performance during the competition..."

"Tokyo Mile?!"

McQueen was so shocked by this sudden mysterious information that he shouted out loudly. The sound was so loud that even the driver in front could hear it clearly. He couldn't help but look up and take a look over here with the help of the rearview mirror.

Noticing the driver's gaze, McQueen quickly readjusted his posture and sat back in the most elegant sitting position:

"What the hell is going on here, Stardust? I never heard that you were going to participate in the Tokyo Mile before the Japan Derby!!!"

"Could it be Toyama? Trainer Toyama arranged another match for you, right? Why don't you just ask grandma to take her away—"
