The mediocre trainer doesn't want to reopen

"It's just that I'm also curious, why did Aldan come back? You graduated a long time ago, didn't you? And you're still with the Emperor."

"Ah, well, I actually accepted a commission to recommend Teio-san on behalf of the Mejiro family."

Ardan smiled slightly upon hearing this and turned his gaze towards Kitano. At this moment, he found that the Emperor of the East China Sea was already standing happily in front of Kitano, even holding one of Kitano's hands in a familiar manner, with his ponytail swaying happily behind him.

On the other side, Mi Yu was like a jealous sister, holding Kitano's other arm coquettishly, looking at the emperor from time to time, and then turning to look at Aldan from time to time... as if she was a little wary of her.

Saint King Halo stood aside as aloofly as ever, seemingly ignoring everyone, but from time to time he would cast his gaze towards the Emperor of the East China Sea, as if he felt that she, an outsider of the team, was a little too close to her trainer.

Miura Bourbon still had no expression on her face. She just approached Kitano silently, sticking to Kitano's back intentionally or unintentionally, but if you didn't look closely, you couldn't feel her little movements at all.

As for her sister Shanxin, she was watching this scene with a subtle expression, and her eyes looking at Kitano were filled with some concern and a helpless expression.

With just a quick glance, the observant Aldan had already grasped everyone's personalities and their feelings towards Kitano. However, she remained calm and said with a smile, "Mr. Emperor seems very interested in joining Trainer Kitano's team. I'm accompanying you this time. I hope you can express what you want to say."

"Hehe, of course!"

Upon hearing this, the East Sea Emperor also hugged one of Kitano's arms, but said in a very serious tone, "Trainer Kitano, although I lost to Bourbon in the finals and was even outplayed by Shanxin, I have not given up."

"I will always do things that prove my ability, and then become Kitano's trainer, the horse girl—no, not just that! I will join the team with abilities that are absolutely no less than the "number one"! I will definitely not lose to Miura-san!"

……

"Ah!"

Not far away, Qingyun Tiankong sneezed without warning, but she paid no attention to it. Instead, Cao Shangfei pulled her hand towards the training ground. With a slightly blushing face and an unnatural smile, she asked, "Xiaocao, don't pull me like this. Xing-chan, I'm not ready yet..."

"Xing-chan, we really have to seize this opportunity. Didn't you say we should slowly build a good relationship with Trainer Kitano? We can't waste this time."

However, when Cao Shangfei saw that her friend looked so unmotivated, she suddenly felt like "the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is"... But she was a kind-hearted horse racing girl, so she grabbed Qingyun Tiankong's hand and kept leading her towards the training ground.

"Trainer Kitano should be at the training ground right now. If we rush over now, they should still be training. Xing-chan, this is a good opportunity to get closer to Trainer Kitano, so don't waste it."

"Hey hey hey, come on, Xing-chan, I'm perfectly safe, but Xiaocao is such a worrywart—"

However, even with Qingyun Tiankong saying this, she was still half-hearted, not knowing whether she wanted to go or not. But deep down, she wished Cao Shangfei would be more resolute and drag her to Beiye's side...

Chapter 137: The Emperor of the East China Sea overtakes on the curve!

"Join the team? If you want to join, Emperor, you can actually be a member of our team right now."

After listening to the words of the East China Sea Emperor, Kitano briefly exchanged glances with several of his members. None of the four horse girls expressed any objection, and even the Holy King Halo just glanced in one direction, which was regarded as tacit consent.

There are many benefits to having the Emperor of the East Sea join the team. First of all, she is a talented person that everyone in Tresen Academy is paying attention to. Her joining can make Kitano famous among the trainers in Tresen Academy - of course, Kitano doesn't really want this. His reputation is a little too big now, and he doesn't want to be envied by others.

Of course, secondly, the Emperor of the East China Sea is also the horse girl that Rudolph values. With the emperor in the team, Rudolph, as the student union president, will also make things convenient for them. Whether it is future competitions or the allocation of team funds, Rudolph will do his best to help.

Of course, the reason why Kitano has never accepted the Emperor of the East China Sea is actually more because he really has no good way to help the emperor safely overcome her fracture crisis... Unless this emperor is the real undefeated three-crown perfect emperor in the mobile game plot, but the probability of this is really too low.

After all, the experience of the previous n rounds has told Kitano that all the hardships and difficulties that Uma Girls have to go through are there, which means that the Emperor will most likely still suffer the fate of fractures under his hands.

Even if all this cannot be saved, strictly speaking it is not Kitano's fault... but he really hopes that at least it is good that he does not witness all this. At least that way, he will not feel so helpless.

But if the emperor really wanted to join, he would certainly not refuse. The worst that could happen would be that he would try to make amends once more with all his strength, and the best outcome would be another complete failure. But in that case, at least he would have an excuse to comfort himself and say that he had tried his best.

But the Emperor was obviously unaware of Kitano's concerns. He shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty, I will not join the team without any preparation. If I do, everyone will look down on me. I want to wash away the shame of my defeat!"

"Just wait and see, Trainer Kitano. When I feel I've achieved what I want, I'll join your team with honor. Before that, please train me well—just like you trained Bourbon and the others before the tryouts!"

"I'll show results soon. For now, I'll just be a figurehead. Trainer Kitano, what do you think?"

The Emperor of the East Sea thought for a long time. She felt that Cao Shangfei was right. She really couldn't join the team just like that. But she also couldn't just keep practicing hard and then contact Beiye after a while. Wouldn't that make it easy for Beiye to forget about her?!

The emperor keenly grasped this point. She would not do something that would make others ignore her, so the emperor thought of a good idea.

Since the four horse girls around trainer Kitano can receive training under Kitano before the selection competition begins, then of course she can too!

First, she would accept Kitano's training, let Kitano recognize her as a member of the team in his heart, and then find an opportunity to avenge her previous shame. In this way, she could not only join Kitano's team naturally and avoid being gossiped about, but also ensure that her attention from Kitano would always be high enough!

As expected of the invincible Emperor, this is a plan I came up with! The Emperor was now feeling elated with his plan. Since this was for a trainer he might fall in love with in the future, the Emperor naturally had to pull out all the stops.

As expected, the emperor's words gave Kitano no reason to refuse. When he cast his eyes on Rudolph, Rudolph smiled and nodded and said, "That depends on your wishes, Trainer Kitano. Of course, if the emperor can train under you, then I will feel much more at ease."

For Rudolph, this was a pleasant surprise. After all, after Emperor's defeat in the finals, Rudolph had assumed that, given Emperor's personality, she would probably not actively seek out Kitano again. Rudolph knew Emperor's pride and arrogance wouldn't allow her to come to Kitano again after her defeat, as that would be embarrassing. Therefore, in Rudolph's mind, Emperor had become the "abandoned pawn" in her plan.

But I didn't expect that the emperor would come up with such an idea... Although this idea didn't seem like something the emperor could come up with, for Rudolph, the fact that the emperor was in Kitano's team didn't have much impact on her next plan.

It would be even better if there was an emperor in Trainer Jun's team, so that she would have more reasons to come to Trainer Jun; if not, it didn't matter, because she would have other excuses anyway.

Of course, Rudolph was relieved to have Emperor on Kitano's team. It wasn't that she didn't love Emperor anymore, but he was no longer important to her "Trainer-kun Capture Plan."

But if you look at it from the perspective of a president and someone who has a close relationship with the emperor, Luduo also symbolically hopes that the emperor can train under Kitano.

——This feeling, as if the Emperor is the child she and Trainer raised together. Thinking of this, Rudolph's smile widened a little unconsciously, and he seemed to have forgotten that the Emperor of the East Sea said that he "liked" Kitano.

"In that case, then fine."

Seeing that no one had any objections, Kitano nodded and approved the joining of Emperor, the "reserve member", and then said to Emperor, "Emperor, welcome to become our team's reserve."

“That’s great!” The emperor’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he almost jumped up with joy. The horse girls next to Kitano also gave congratulatory applause, celebrating that their small team, which had been established for less than two days, suddenly had a fifth member.

Mejiro Zenshin was also looking at the cheerful emperor with a smile, but her eyes were gleaming with a bit of envy, and a little bit of jealousy that even she herself found strange, making it unclear what she was thinking at the moment.

"Well, then! Trainer!" The cheerful Emperor quickly changed his address to Kitano and said with a joyful smile, "What are we training next? Do you want to see me demonstrate my best Emperor dance moves?"

"Our training will be much reduced over the next period of time, and most of the time will be spent resting." Kitano also explained to the newly joined Emperor, "According to my arrangements, the next week is not suitable for high-intensity exercise. Three consecutive days of competitions have put a lot of strain on you. Now, it's time to go to swimming training."

"Ah, swimming?! My Lord Emperor, I won't lose at this!"

The Emperor of the East China Sea said proudly upon hearing this: "Your Majesty, my swimming style is perfect, and as fast as my imperial dance steps!"

"Swimming? Sounds fun." Aldan Mejiro, standing nearby, showed interest and said softly, "I haven't swum in Tresen College for a long time. Please let me come along."

"As for me, I won't be going for now. I still have work to do in the student union."

Rudolph, who had already achieved his goal today, shook his head under the emperor's expectant gaze and said gently, "Emperor, you must listen carefully to Trainer Kitano and practice hard."

"I will, President."

"Okay, let's go to the swimming pool together!" The emperor also agreed to Rudolf, and then ran towards the swimming pool with great fanfare. However, when she ran there, a strange idea came to her mind.

Hehe, did Trainer think she hadn't noticed? She'd only just joined the team, so swimming was a coincidence? He thought the clever Emperor hadn't noticed, but Trainer just wanted to see her swimsuit, didn't he?

Although she is a little shy...but the more times like this, the more she should show her calm side. When the trainer who wants to laugh at her is counterattacked by her, he will definitely show a good expression, right?

The Emperor of the East China Sea couldn't help but think of Sirius - Senior Sirius was very good at flirting with horse girls, and many horse girls were crazy about her. Although the emperor admired the president the most, she also wanted to be a mature woman like Sirius.

Then let's start by imitating Sirius Senior! Trainer, if you want to see someone shy, that's impossible!

……

"Huh, huh..."

"Huh? Why aren't you here? Could it be that Trainer Kitano and the others have finished their training?"

However, on the other side, Cao Shangfei and Qingyun Tiankong hurried to the training ground, but Kitano and his group were no longer there. Cao Shangfei couldn't help but look around in confusion, and immediately asked several horse girls who seemed to have been training for a long time.

"Xiaocao, since Trainer Kitano isn't here, it means they must be very busy. It's not a good time for us to disturb them."

Qingyun Tiankong, who had been growing increasingly nervous as they approached the training ground, he heaved a sigh of relief when he discovered that Kitano was nowhere to be seen. He then said to Cao Shangfei, who was not far away, in a nonchalant manner, "If we disturb the human world, it will make it difficult for me, Xing-chan, to join the team. We'd better go back. Xing-chan, I'm so sleepy... ah?"

However, the next moment, Cao Shangfei, who had gone to question the horse girl, immediately returned, grabbed Qingyun Tiankong's wrist, and pulled him to the other side, saying, "I asked, and I heard from that classmate that Trainer Kitano and the others seemed to have gone to the swimming pool. Xing-chan, let's go there quickly, that might be the best place to see Trainer Kitano."

"Swimming, swimming pool?" Doesn't that mean I have to wear a swimsuit? Wait, it seems the school uses universal swimsuits, so there's no need to worry.

"But, but wearing a swimsuit for our second meeting... isn't that a bad idea?"

However, despite saying so, Qingyun Tiankong's retreating feet still instinctively walked with Cao Shangfei, but Cao Shangfei had to pull her with even greater strength...

Chapter 138: Aldan's Self-Strategy

In fact, Kitano's original idea was to let the horse racing girls go to the swimming pool for training, and let them supervise each other to complete the training targets, and let them play by themselves for the rest of the time.

After all, this wasn't the time for one-on-one training. In the Tresen Academy swimming pool, besides the massive public pool, there were several separate, walled-off lanes, each about three or four meters wide, for individual training. These lanes weren't spacious, and aside from training, they offered no fun at all. However, their advantage was obvious: they were specifically designed for one-on-one use between trainers and horse girls.

All the training facilities at Tresen Academy have taken the feelings of all the horse girls into consideration as much as possible. Most of the horse girls are pure and kind, and they are very safe before they reach puberty and try to force themselves on their trainers. However, safety is safety, and each horse girl has a different personality.

Some horse girls are enthusiastic and outgoing, and many of their winning outfits are quite revealing, sometimes just a short skirt and a tube top, but they have no qualms about it.

However, some horse girls are more introverted, shy and sensitive. They are not used to sharing public places with too many people. The noisy environment may even lead to dangers in training and loss of concentration.

Kitano once heard of a case where a timid horse girl was almost scared to death by a loud thunder during a thunderstorm. She cried and looked for her trainer. Then the next day, she went to find that no matter how much she was comforted, she could not calm down. She was directly judged to have lost her ability to compete and retired.

In any case, Tresen Academy still has to consider a small number of individuals, so there are independent swimming lanes for individual training, which can be used for individual training of trainers and horse girls.

But... I heard that this kind of swimming lane inspired some horse racing girls to be alone with their trainers while wearing swimsuits, and then deliberately create some small accidents, dragging their trainers into the water and making their horses jump just before their trainers try to escape the scene.

Such incidents of horses jumping in water happen frequently. Fortunately, because of the obstruction of water, the force that the horse girl feeds back to her trainer's pelvis is greatly reduced. Therefore, most trainers whose horses jump in the swimming lane will not need to go to the orthopedics department due to pelvic fractures.

Compared to the shattered pelvis, being punished to clean the lane after being hit was considered a lucky thing for the trainers... When Kitano was training his own team in this independent swimming lane, he would occasionally encounter situations where the lanes were full and strange noises could be heard from all over...

But now the situation has changed. Kitano used to be able to train with the horse girls in a separate lane during his one-on-one training, but now with Altan Mejiro, he has six horse girls to guide. They can't just squeeze into one lane, right? They have to go to the swimming pool.

But the swimming pool was basically full of horse girls in swimsuits. Although there was no rule prohibiting male trainers from entering, and it was a public place, it was still awkward for Kitano, a man, to enter...

But in the end Kitano was persuaded, because Aldan's words "It is better for the trainers to personally supervise the training of the horse girls" got the support of all the other horse girls, and Kitano finally came in.

However, he didn't have a swimsuit, so he entered in casual clothes. He didn't plan to go into the water, just sit around the pool and look at it.

While Kitano was waiting, and after being looked at for a long time by the horse racing girls in the swimming pool with curious eyes, as if the residents of a country of women were looking at men, finally, his horse racing girls finally arrived one after another.

"Here he comes! The invincible emperor is here!"

Soon, the East Sea Emperor, wearing the uniform swimsuit issued by Tresen Academy, collectively known as "Shikusui," came to the swimming pool with great momentum. He soon came in front of Kitano, puffed out his chest, put his hands on his hips and said, "How about it, Trainer, my swimsuit is very nice, isn't it?"

"Are you sure you want my evaluation, Emperor?" However, Kitano also found it funny. He didn't want to be rude, but based on his aesthetic sense and Emperor's current level... he could only say that Emperor should try again in a few years.

But he also knew that the Emperor didn't mean that. The Emperor was just a child who didn't even understand love. At that moment, Kitano also glanced at the Emperor's Sukumizu and said softly, "Very good, Emperor, it feels like a good fit."

"What?... This is what Trainer-kun wanted to see, so why is his reaction so indifferent?"

The emperor was also disappointed when she heard this. She had been expecting Kitano to look at her with curiosity, or even lustful eyes. However, Kitano's reaction was so indifferent, as if the person in front of him was not a young and beautiful Uma Musume swimsuit girl. It was so indifferent that the emperor felt that she was being looked down upon.

At this moment, the rest of the members arrived one after another. Miura Bourbon was the first to arrive. He quickly walked in front of Kitano and said calmly, "Master, Miura Bourbon has switched to swimsuit mode. Please give the next command."

"Bourbon." Kitano also agreed. The particularly proud figure of Miura Bourbon did not make Kitano's gaze linger for any longer. Don't ask, if you do, the answer is that he has admired it many times before, and there is no fluctuation in his heart.

Kitano's indifferent reaction also made Bourbon slightly stunned. She still remembered that when she wore a swimsuit for the first time, the master stared at her for a long time with a look of shock on his face - she was actually quite shy at the time, but because her expression was very calm, she did not show it.

But Kitano's reaction this time was so indifferent that Bourbon began to wonder if there was some flaw in his perfect machine... At this moment, behind Bourbon, little Mi Yu also poked his head out and asked timidly, "Brother, Brother-sama...how is it..."

Mi Yu seemed a little shy as she hid behind Bourbon. She was obviously a little unconfident. After all, in this circle, she was even smaller than the emperor. She was shy by nature and did not dare to come out from behind Bourbon at the moment.

"You're so cute, Miyu. Don't be so reserved." Seeing Miyu's lack of confidence, Kitano smiled at her and said, "Look at Shanxin and Shengwang. They're all very confident."

"Hmph, a first-rate king certainly doesn't have any flaws, even his figure is perfect." Upon hearing this, Saint King Halo, who was slowly walking forward, proudly ruffled her hair. Her figure could indeed be described as impressive, without a single flaw on her body, as exquisite as a perfect human sculpture from the Greek era.

"Ahahaha... I don't have as good a figure as the Holy King and Bourbon, but it's no big deal."

Upon hearing this, Shanxin ruffled her hair, revealing a rare expression of uncertainty. However, her figure was in no way inferior to that of the Holy King or Bourbon. Hidden beneath her school uniform and pool noodles was a figure that rivaled anyone else's, its proportions so perfect that they were second only to the Holy King's aura, which boasted a golden ratio.

As several horse girls entered the arena, the initially smug Emperor of the East Sea suddenly froze. He subconsciously glanced at his own flat chest and his buttocks, which were so hard that even against the stool they felt...

No, no, no, Your Majesty, I have always controlled my figure very well. It was just an accident. I will definitely not lose.

However, after taking a quick look around, the emperor was convinced that he could not compare with Bourbon and the Holy King, the two pressure monsters... Wouldn't their shoulders be sore from carrying two such big lumps every day?

As for Shanxin... well, the emperor thought he was not as big as her, nor as tall and slim as Shanxin. In the end, he had to turn his attention to the timid Mi Yu.

When Mi Yu slowly walked out from behind Bourbon with Kitano's encouragement, the emperor's eyes fell on Mi Yu's significant ups and downs, and he almost fell into the swimming pool with his eyes black.

Ugh… What’s the good of having those two things on your head? You can’t run faster. Why don’t we all have an assembly line body like Suzuka-san? Wouldn’t it be good for everyone to run faster?

Oh, if I think about it carefully, McQueen doesn't seem that big after all. Thinking of this, the emperor suddenly regained his confidence, but his chest was still not as high as before.

"Okay, everyone, let's jog around the pool a bit to stretch our bodies before we get in the water."

"Oh!"

……

Although Kitano is the supervisor, he actually just needs to sit beside the swimming pool where the water can't reach him. It's not appropriate for him to stare at the swimming pool all the time, even if he wants to see the five horse girls who are practicing swimming.

Especially since there are other horse girls around. In this environment full of horse girls, he might be more unpopular than a giant panda... Fortunately, this is not Trep's worldview, otherwise, in this situation, he might have been a lamb walking into the tiger's mouth.

"Ah, Trainer Kitano."

At this moment, a gentle voice slowly sounded beside Kitano. Aldan, wearing a sports jacket, slowly sat down next to Kitano and said with a gentle smile, "You're here! That's great! I thought I was the only one who couldn't go in the water."

"Isn't Aldan going to play in the swimming pool?" Kitano replied, then suddenly remembered Aldan's body and said somewhat dejectedly: "Or...your body..."

"It's okay, I'm in good health. But I know that if I go into the water, the horse girl bodyguards might nervously surround me." Ardan smiled and joked when he heard that.

"That's really bad." Kitano nodded solemnly upon hearing this. Although he knew that this was understandable for Aldan, he didn't want to mention Aldan's physical condition at the moment. Instead, he smiled and said, "Sometimes playing in the water can be a good way to relax yourself. If I didn't have a swimsuit and there were so many horse girls here, I would also like to swim."
