The mediocre trainer doesn't want to reopen

"But, but... Elu, I still lost to Xiaocao..."

It was not known whether Kitano's consolation had any effect, or whether Shenying was crying just to gain Kitano's comfort. Shenying seemed very easy to talk to this time, but he said unwillingly, "Elu, I was very confident this time...Elu, I even found Xiaocao and told her that if Ailu won, we could still be good friends..."

"What is this... Elu, I'm like an idiot, Trainer-san, Elu, Elu... wuwuwu..."

As she spoke, Shenying couldn't help but burst into tears. As she cried, she hugged Kitano beside her and buried her head in Kitano's arms and cried. Seeing this, Kitano kept stroking Shenying's back to make her feel a little better.

Cao Shangfei, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she saw this. She had just vented her emotions because of her "revenge" on the Condor, and now her kind nature took over again. Facing the crying Condor, she didn't know whether to advance or retreat, and didn't know how to comfort her.

Fortunately, Kitano used his eyes to indicate that he should leave this to him and not let Cao Shangfei go up to provoke the Condor again. After feeling the Condor's sobbing subside a little, Kitano immediately smiled and said soothingly, "Alright, Elu, don't cry. You are the Condor who is going to conquer the world. It's not like you to be so discouraged because of this failure."

"You didn't gain nothing from this match, did you? You're very talented. Even if you suffered a loss this time, you'll definitely come up with a better solution next time. Suffering a loss this time is much easier to accept than suffering a loss in a bigger arena next time, isn't it?"

"But... a bigger arena..." Shenying felt a little better after hearing this, but her attention was attracted by Kitano's words. She couldn't help but look up and ask, "But, isn't the Arima Kinen? The largest arena in Japan? There are even bigger ones..."

"It will happen, Elu." Kitano patted Condor's shoulder and promised softly, "In the future, there will definitely be a bigger arena for you to challenge."

"So now, dry your tears and let's go home for Christmas, okay?"

"it is good."

The Condor was silent for a while, as if he had figured something out. Soon, he took off his mask and wiped away his tears.

Before Kitano could see clearly what Condor looked like without the mask, Condor had already put it back on and stood in front of Kitano with a smile on his face again. He put his hands on his hips and said, "Elu, I will work harder! I lost this time, but I must win next time!"

"That's it." Seeing that Condor had recovered, Kitano nodded in satisfaction. However, he didn't notice that Condor's bright eyes were gleaming with excitement and curiosity.

Because of what Kitano said, the promised "bigger arena", Shenying seemed to realize something. She was a little bit incredulous, but also a little excited, because she felt that Kitano would not lie to her.

So, what exactly is this so-called larger arena? If it's not in Japan, then could it be...

When Shenying thought of this, her heart began to pound. She was a little bit unconvinced that the person would be herself. After all, Xiaocao was more powerful than her now. If she had to choose, she should choose Xiaocao, right?

But wouldn't Trainer Sang just lie to her? Shenying was a little unsure, but just such a simple promise made Shenying very excited at the moment.

In the future... does Trainer Sang want her to represent the team and go on an expedition?

Chapter 380: The upcoming wedding date?

This year's Christmas was a little more intense than last year. The specific manifestation was that at this time last year, Tokai Zhou and Shenying had not yet joined the team, and there were not so many active Uma Musume in the team at that time.

Although only a year has passed, Kitano's situation this year is very different from last year. If he could be considered relaxed at last year's Christmas, then this year's Christmas, Kitano's situation can only be described as tense.

The reason is... because next year is the time for Donghai Emperor and Shanxin to debut, so the Emperor and Shanxin who returned to their own homes to celebrate Christmas last year chose to stay in the team room for Christmas this year.

Since Shanxin didn't go home, Ardan naturally didn't go back to the Mejiro family. This year, they celebrated Christmas together in the team room. With several more mouths to feed, Kitano naturally had to put more effort into the ingredients.

The more important reason is that Shenying and Special Week also joined Kitano's team! Although they are just two mouths, the presence of Special Week is very different.

Because she is such a big eater!

Before Kitano traveled through time, he was actually very interested in the actual food intake of several horse girls who were very gluttonous both in anime and in the secondary creation. After coming to this world and becoming a trainer at Tresen Academy, Kitano of course verified this.

Kitano had once been the trainer for Oguruma, the renowned glutton at Tresen Academy. Back then, Kitano clearly understood that the title of Tresen Academy's biggest eater was well-earned. Neither the anime nor the comics exaggerated Oguruma's appetite, and in fact, their estimates were somewhat conservative.

As a horse girl who can even eat and digest weeds when hungry, Kitano has really witnessed the scene of Oguruma chewing on the grass because of hunger. If Kitano had not arrived in time, the training ground of Tresen Academy would probably have become all mud the next day.

As for Te Bie Zhou, her appetite is not as exaggerated as that of Oguruma, but as a student in Tresen Academy, only second to Oguruma in terms of appetite, Te Bie Zhou's appetite is still astonishingly terrifying.

Especially, this Christmas, she can really feel at ease. As a "hero", she seriously asked Kitano for a "Christmas gift", which was to meet all her needs on Christmas Day, including letting Teki Zhou eat and drink to her heart's content on Christmas.

Kitano had no choice. After all, Tokaisu really won the Japan Cup, and she was one of the few horse girls in the team with two GI victories, and both of them were very valuable GIs. The reward she wanted at the time was promised by Kitano himself.

Therefore, this scene appeared... On Christmas Eve, everyone was enjoying the Christmas night happily, only Kitano was busy in the kitchen, making one dish after another, and finally fed all the horse racing girls present before he collapsed from exhaustion.

Yes, it's not just Special Week. In fact, most horse girls have an astonishing appetite, because their physical energy consumption is much higher than that of ordinary people. The presence of all members of the team this time has also increased Kitano's pressure a lot.

However, for Kitano, there might not only be bad news. For example, after enduring a difficult Christmas, Kitano was called into Rudolph's office to discuss something very important to them...

"The wedding has been arranged?"

"Well, everything has been prepared. Even the date has been chosen. It will be the night after the Arima Kinen next year."

In front of Kitano, Luduo's face was full of happiness and impatience. She was playing with her fingers nervously with her hands, and there was even a blush on her face that had not faded, but she still told Kitano the news.

"This time next year, Trainer-kun, we'll be husband and wife. I'm really looking forward to it."

"Indeed...it's worth looking forward to."

Kitano himself had no objection to the fact that his wedding with Rudolph had already been scheduled. He knew that if he were to do all this, it would probably give him a headache. Before he traveled through time, he had not learned from his parents how to determine which day was a good day.

Moreover, if Kitano were to plan the process of getting married, then Kitano would have to do even more. And now, the debut of the horse racing girls in the team and various things in the classic year are enough to give Kitano a headache.

Therefore, Kitano certainly had no objection to the fact that the symbolist family and Rudolf arranged the wedding date and took full responsibility for it. It was just right that he didn't need to worry about these things.

"Huh?! Trainer-san and the president—are they getting married next year?!"

However, at this moment, the Emperor of the East China Sea, who was also called to the Student Union by Rudolph, was also extremely surprised by this sudden news. Fortunately, Qi Cao and Bai Ren were arranged to other places by Rudolph, otherwise the emperor's voice would definitely attract the two women.

Under the gaze of Rudolph and Kitano, the initially astonished Emperor of the East Sea's expression visibly changed from shock at first to increasing delight. He even stretched out his hands and shouted, "Great! The President and Trainer-san are finally getting married! Great! Great!"

"But, on the wedding day, what should I do?! President? Should I be a bridesmaid? Should I send invitations to everyone's family? And where should I sit? Should I sit with everyone, or at the table with Trainer-san and the president's children?"

"Calm down, Emperor. Of course you'll be sitting at the same table with me and Trainer-kun. We're family."

When she saw the East China Sea Emperor's ecstatic reaction to the news, for some reason, Lu Duo's symbolic heart was relieved. The thing she had been most worried about did not happen between him and Trainer Jun after all.

But on second thought, Rudolf himself found it quite amusing. When did he need to be so wary of the emperor's feelings? Clearly, the people he was most wary of at the time were either good opera or Aldan Mejiro. Now, he was about to marry Trainer-kun, and yet he was still being paranoid.

Calm down, Rudolph. There's no point in being suspicious now. You and Trainer are only one step away from success. There's nothing to worry about.

With this thought, Rudolf took a deep breath, put aside all his worries and anxieties, and said to the Emperor of the East China Sea with a smile, "On the day of the wedding, Your Majesty, I may need you to help me scatter the flowers. At that time, I will also specially choose a dress for you."

"Hehe, then I'm really looking forward to it!"

The joy of the East Sea Emperor was beyond words, because for her, although she also liked Kitano, she had made up her mind that she would never take action against her trainer Sang before the president.

And now, the president and trainer Sang are about to get married. Does this mean that my time is coming soon?

The Emperor of the East Sea was also very excited. He would be making his debut next year, and the president would be marrying Trainer-san next year! And the year after that would be his signature year – didn’t that mean he could also marry Trainer-san the year after that?

Okay! It's decided! The day I win the Undefeated Triple Crown, I'll propose to Trainer-san! This time, when the president and Trainer-san propose, I'm going to watch carefully and learn how the president proposes!

But...the year after next, will I be an adult?

For a moment, the East China Sea Emperor's mind was full of thoughts. She did not consider what her feelings towards Kitano were now. She only knew that she liked her trainer Sang very much and her trainer Sang also cared about her very much.

And, most importantly! The person he admired most, the president, liked was Trainer-san! And the Emperor of the East Sea, who had always wanted to possess the same symbol as Luduo since childhood, was still the same when it came to his marriage partner.

There are a few factors at play. The Emperor of the East China Sea, whose temperament has not changed much from the past, has long regarded Kitano as his marriage partner - at least, she feels that she likes Kitano.

It's a pity that this idea has not yet been known to Luduo and Kitano. Otherwise, the "marriage plan" of the Emperor of the East China Sea may have to die prematurely, and he will also be dragged by his trainer Sang and the president to undergo various ideological education.

"Getting married...it feels like time has passed so quickly."

Kitano also rubbed the little head of the emperor beside him, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional for a moment. If it were him in the past, he would never have thought that he would actually be able to symbolically marry Luduo now.

"It's just... I haven't prepared anything yet, Rudolph. Now that it's decided, I don't know what to do."

"It's okay, Trainer-kun. I've already arranged everything."

Lu Duo, who was now ready to tell Kitano the news, had naturally made all the necessary preparations. He chuckled softly and said, "Grandmother has already made all the necessary preparations. This wedding is a family wedding, so the news will be public to the outside world. Therefore, we are a truly legal couple, both in private and in public."

"Of course, I will make other arrangements regarding Sirius's affairs. Although her wedding will not be public, don't worry, every family member who should be there will be there. This matter will also be kept strictly confidential and will not be made public."

"No... I mean..."

However, Kitano didn't want to talk about the details of the wedding. He wanted to say that he hadn't yet prepared a diamond ring to symbolize Luduo. This was at least what he should do. He couldn't just give a wedding diamond ring for free, a symbol of family, right? Although he felt that if he asked, this small request would definitely be met.

But some things are only meaningful if you accomplish them yourself... Fortunately, it's not too late to start preparing now.

It’s just… getting married, I really never thought that this day would come.

And... what should we do about Aldan? Has Rudolph discussed this with Aldan and the others?

However, looking at Rudolph's smiling face, Kitano had a vague feeling that some danger was approaching him... After this news slowly spread to the members of the team, he might face some danger.

But... Kitano didn't know what the danger was, and who would do something bad to him because of this news?

Chapter 381: Aldan and Rudolph's wedding?

"Getting married? I never thought that this day would come. But what's going on with this inexplicable uneasiness?"

"If I get married... and the news gets to the team, who will be the most opposed?"

After receiving the news that he would symbolically marry Luduo at the end of next year, Kitano, after a burst of wonderful joy, was immediately stumped by a sharp question - how should he convey this message to everyone in the team?

Indeed, if Kitano's interpersonal relationships are still the same as he thought when he first joined Tresen Academy this week, and he maintains a healthy relationship with all his responsibilities, then he thinks there will be no problem in passing this news to the horse racing girls in his team.

However, Kitano now knows that, not to mention that he has not maintained any healthy interpersonal relationships with his horse racing girls in this round - even in the previous rounds, when they were still teaching one-on-one, his horse racing girls had actually "plotted against him".

Based on this, Kitano now has more or less an understanding of what he has done in the past, and his impression of himself as having no charm has also improved to some extent.

But, it is precisely because of this that Kitano is so worried about how to tell this news to everyone in the team. Kitano feels in particular that if this news spreads within the team, his personal safety will be threatened by his own responsibility, just like those seniors whom he once laughed at.

Then, Kitano had to think about this question - if he told everyone in the team the news that he was going to get married, who would react more strongly?

Well... Mi Yu and Bourbon will definitely react strongly. The trustworthiness of Mi Yu and his pitiful "brother-sister relationship" is already pitifully low. If he wants to get married, Mi Yu will definitely be the first to stand up and oppose it.

As for Bourbon, her reaction to Miyu will only be more intense, and she might even get upset to the point of crying. At that time, Kitano will not only have to comfort the crying Miyu, but Bourbon may also need his comfort.

Moreover, based on Kitano's understanding of Bourbon, once Bourbon was stimulated too much, the results that her brain, which might "crash", came up with would often be drastic and unexpected...

Therefore, this news... Kitano felt that it would be better not to let them know, otherwise, Xingjiang and Shengwang are about to start their classic year, and Diwang and Shanxin are also about to debut. If such a big commotion is caused, it may affect their condition.

Ah... Speaking of believers, that's also a problem. Then there's the matter of the two Mejiro sisters. Rudolph certainly doesn't seem to have spoken to the Mejiro family about this. Whether Aldan and Shaanxi knew about this is another matter.

If I tell Ardan and the believers about my symbolic marriage to Rudo by the end of next year... they'll probably get anxious, right? And then, if they tell the Mejiro clan head about this, the two heads of the Umamusume clan will start arguing over this issue again.

Kitano wasn't sure what would happen then... Maybe there would be a lot of unpleasantness over the wedding date? There might even be a lot of trouble over who gets married first...

There is also Good Opera. Good Opera has a very good temper, but I don’t know if her acceptance and good temper can continue on this issue. However, Kitano thinks it is better not to have any expectations in this regard...

As for the others... the emperor has already made his attitude clear, so there is no need to worry at all. Xiao Te and Ailu have just joined not long ago. No matter how magical I am, I can't make them react drastically to this matter. At most, they will be shocked by the fact that Kitano's marriage partner is Luduo, right?

Well, as for Xiaocao and Xingchan...it might be a little troublesome, but Kitano felt that he should be able to deal with it.

Then the only remaining problem... is the Holy King.

When he thought of the Holy King's halo, Kitano couldn't help but feel a little toothache. He still hadn't figured out how to deal with this person. It seemed that every time he was only one step away from getting married, but this step could never be taken.

Does Kitano have feelings for the Holy King? Of course he does, and Kitano has to admit that. Whether it was last week or this week, Kitano has always maintained a distance between himself and the Holy King, and he has actually tried to break it several times.

He and the Holy King had even consciously tried to cross this step, but every experiment and test ended in failure without exception.

The two of them seemed to be separated by a thousand-foot abyss, unable to cross it no matter what. Kitano himself had actually reluctantly chosen to give up on this. After all, becoming a close confidant of the Saint King was already a huge leap for Kitano.

After all... When Kitano met the Holy King in the past, he never thought that he and this difficult young lady would one day really be able to communicate with each other spiritually.

For Kitano, being able to reach this point was already an extremely unexpected result. Moreover, he should not be short of people around him now. Let alone Rudolf, Sirius, Aldan and Shanxin, they were enough to make Kitano feel terrified.

But... I still feel a little bit unwilling, because of my bad nature...

However, Kitano was more concerned about how the people would react to the news. Would they accept it calmly? Or would they react violently?

Honestly, Kitano couldn't guess how the Holy King would react. Although he and the Holy King had made a promise long ago that they would never get angry because of their personal relationships, in other words, they wouldn't let the other's love for someone else affect their feelings for each other.

This promise was made by Kitano and Shengwang when they knew that their relationship could not go any further and they did not want to tie each other down for life because of themselves.

But now... Kitano can indeed like other people, but the Holy King, from beginning to end, has never been polite to any man other than Kitano.

Moreover, the Holy King had actually broken this promise more than once. Back when Kitano and Aldan were getting close, the Holy King had kicked down the door to the team room in anger. Although she had calmed down afterward, this was still inconsistent with the promise she had made.

Moreover, the Holy King later made her own request to Kitano, that is, before she thought clearly about their relationship, Kitano's virginity must not be lost...

Therefore, Kitano is now curious about what the relationship between him and the Holy King is like. Have they taken another step forward, or are they still the same as before?

"Ah, Trainer-san? What's wrong with you?"

Just when Kitano was still worried, a gentle voice called Kitano back to his senses. Aldan had come to Kitano without him noticing. He looked at him with a worried look on his face and asked, "You look a little worried. What's going on? Can I help you?"

"Aldan..."

When facing Aldan, Kitano's defenses were subconsciously relaxed a lot. At the moment, he was full of worries, but he didn't know how to tell Aldan about his own problems.

After all... this news could cause panic and turmoil within the team if it wasn't careful. But Kitano knew that he couldn't keep it a secret. After all, the wedding date had been set, and everyone would know about it when the time came. The longer he concealed it, the greater the shock everyone would suffer.

But... should I tell Aldan? Aldan's health isn't very good. If she were to be stimulated by this, no one knows how she would react...

"Nothing, Aldan. Some troubles can only be thought about by myself. It's better not to ask."

In the end, Kitano still couldn't reveal his troubles. Then, looking at Aldan's slightly helpless but somewhat worried eyes, he couldn't help but ask, "It's just that, Aldan, you seem to be troubled by something too. There are other thoughts in your eyes."

"Oh... is it that obvious?"
