I only have one year to live, so I must become a legendary horse girl!

"Nothing, it's just been a while, right?"

As Gotham Carol said this, she put on her running shoes barefoot, and without even washing or changing clothes, she dragged the Emperor of the East China Sea towards the staircase without any refusal.

The Emperor of the East China Sea was speechless and at a loss. Honestly, if she wanted to, she could have directly held back the Gotham Carol. She had the power to do so, or rather—

In other words, the Emperor of the East China Sea was well aware of how much weaker Gotham Carol was than Ponygirl in terms of power, but she just couldn't do such a thing, and even faced the strange gaze of the dormitory manager without recovering from her shock.

The Emperor of the East China Sea was just in a daze. She looked at the petite yet tall figure in front of her and whispered to herself.

"Okay, what's been going on for a while?"

"It's not like this, we're on the runway, right? Emperor, do you remember how we first met?"

Who was their first identity? The Emperor of the East China Sea was no fool, but she was a little hesitant to speak.

After all, she is now a horse girl who resists even such things, as if she has lost her nature.

In other words, can she, the Emperor of the East China Sea, really say calmly that she is a horse girl?

"Our original identity was... friends?"

"Are you mistaken or am I mistaken? It's an old enemy."

There were actually a few people doing morning exercises on the grassland. After all, this was the area closest to the dormitory building. However, after seeing the Emperor of the East China Sea, who was only wearing a water skirt and Gotham Anthem and was being led without any resistance, most people clearly realized what was going to happen.

Even the few who didn't quite understand were aware of what happened next through the whispers of those around them, so what was so surprising?

Within just a few minutes, the entire grassland was completely cleared, leaving only two people standing at the starting point of the runway.

The Emperor of the East Sea was still in a state of shock. She had never expected things to develop to this stage.

She just wanted to get some advice and help from Gotham Carol, why did it turn out like this?

Anyway...

Trasen College training field, 1,600 meters, left turn, two contestants, cloudy weather.

Confusedly, at least from the perspective of the East China Sea Emperor, she stood on the "arena" she had been away from for a long time.

"But Carol, now I..."

I have no way to run now!

How can we describe what the Emperor of the East China Sea encountered?

In fact, the reason is very simple. For horse girls, being unable to run due to a broken bone will even make the body subconsciously afraid, which is almost the same as death.

After the Emperor of the East China Sea was unable to step onto the field due to a fracture, even though his body has recovered, he is still afraid of one thing.

What if there is no way to run?

When he was still in rehabilitation training, due to the progress and aspirations, the Emperor of the East China Sea was completely unaware of this matter. It was only when he was able to step on the grass again that this problem became sharply highlighted.

The Emperor of the East Sea ran in fear without her being able to restrain herself.

Or rather, they are afraid of the possibility of breaking a bone again as a result of running.

"Now, the Emperor is the only one who can't run, right?"

How could Gotham Carol not know about this? She knew about this, so she acted like this.

But what could be done to restore the East Sea Emperor's courage to run? Well, Gotham Carol didn't have any particularly good ideas, but after being a horse girl for so long, she did understand one thing clearly.

All horse girls were passionate about running, and no one was unlike her. In other words… if they could find a way to get the Emperor of the East Sea to run, the joy in their body would always be enough to overwhelm their fear, right? The Emperor of the East Sea wasn't some wimpy horse girl, so, ah, Gotham Carol only had one thing to do now.

A very simple thing.

"So, even if the emperor can't run, I'm still here, right?"

Gotham Carol showed a bright smile to the Emperor of the East China Sea. At this moment, the hesitant Ma Niang felt the gradually increasing grip on her wrist.

From the moment he went downstairs until now, Gotham Carol has not let go of my hand, even now that he is about to start running... he is about to start running.

Wait, could it be...?

There was a voice in the heart of the East China Sea Emperor telling him what was going to happen next, but when Ma Niang came to her senses, she was filled with disbelief.

"So, it doesn't matter if the emperor can't run alone now. I'm here, so..."

"Shall we go and harness the wind on the field together?"

Gotham Carol's nightgown was flowing, but the hem was long enough to fall above her knees, revealing two long, smooth legs.

only…

However, the edges of the running shoes were the same color as her skin. Gotham Carol let the skin of her feet touch the running shoes and took firm steps at this moment. She could even be said to be pulling the Emperor of the East China Sea forward on the track.

Firm, domineering, unquestionable, or rather, not giving such an opportunity at all, he used a hammer to try to break down the barrier of fear in the heart of the Emperor of the East China Sea.

"If the Emperor's legs are resisting running, then I can replace them and make the Emperor run, right?"

Gotham Carol clearly did not actually say this, but the Emperor of the East China Sea was now extremely convinced that she had clearly heard such a thing.

Honestly speaking, the Emperor of the East China Sea didn't know how to describe her feelings at this moment. She could only see the black and white headband with moon and star ornaments fluttering in front of her, the back figure that filled her sight, and the arena that seemed to have accepted her again and was approaching from a distance.

The whole world is rushing towards the Emperor of the East China Sea, or rather, she is rushing towards the whole world.

With the guidance and help of another person.

It would be nice if the carols could be my legs or something when I can't run...

The Emperor of the East China Sea had this thought for no reason, but it was only a fleeting thought, and she began to respond with gritted teeth.

To be honest, she has been enduring inner pain and torment, because her past as the Emperor of the East China Sea and her past as an undefeated genius made her unable to accept the present where she did not run, could not run, and was afraid to run.

but now…

But now her enemies are trying so hard to help her overcome obstacles, and if she doesn't make any effort herself, wouldn't that be a bit too disgusting?

She is the emperor of the East China Sea!

Isn't it just a matter of not being able to run?

Isn't it just the body being afraid?!

If it was to return to the track and run, if it was to be able to respond to the hearts of all those who waited for her...

If it's for you...

Even if my body doesn't want to, I have to conquer it! Body, move! Don't be afraid! Just keep running! Even if it means death, I will do my best to crush it under my feet!

The Emperor of the East China Sea took a step forward, roaring wantonly and arrogantly, as if she wanted to completely melt herself into another thing without leaving any effort, as if she didn't care at all, and even happily looked forward to the next fracture at all costs.

A wild smile appeared on the face of the East China Sea Emperor, and his steps gradually became lighter. The position he had originally lagged behind because he was being carried was gradually disappearing.

For the first time, the Emperor of the East China Sea caught up with Gotham Carol, and then the two walked hand in hand all the way until they slowed down at the end of the runway.

"Speaking of which, Emperor, this is only the first minute since you were officially discharged from the hospital, right?"

It's not about walking out of the hospital, but a complete and thorough recovery in the full sense of the word.

"It seems that's indeed the case. The Emperor will not lose after this time!"

The Emperor of the East China Sea was actually quite tired. It was hard to say whether it was because of physical problems or because her emotions had been completely expressed. In short, she was looking at Gotham Anthem with eyes as fierce and wild as a wild beast.

However, Gotham Carol gave a mysterious smile to this.

She said this for something else. Even though she forgot to give the gift she had been giving away, there were other options for replacement.

Besides, the emperor wouldn't be unhappy, right? Uh... probably not?

Gotham Carol took off her two hairbands and gestured to the East China Sea Emperor to lower his head.

"If that's the case, then it doesn't count as me forgetting to send you off to congratulate you. Can I bring it to you personally, Emperor?"

"Of course..."

The Emperor of the East China Sea didn't know what to say at this moment, but whenever she recalled this moment, she could only give one description.

She received what could be considered the most precious thing, given to her by the Gotham Carol herself...

Always with the warm moon and stars.

Chapter 99, fly over here!

"You mean, you went running without even washing up in the morning?"

"Ah."

Rudolph was both angry and amused. She looked at Gotham Carol who was standing in front of her with his head down and unable to say a word, and recalled everything she had just seen.

As the president of the entire Japan Central Teresin Student Union, Rudolph Yuzhi was always the first one to arrive at his office. Perhaps it was because he adhered to the style of leading by example. In short, since Rudolph Yuzhi took up this position, except for a few occasions, he had never slacked off for even a minute.

So even though she saw a somewhat surprising scene when she came to the student union room today—that is, there seemed to be more children heading to a certain running field than usual—Rudolph did not join in the fun.

She subconsciously tried to come up with an explanation. Maybe he was there to witness the two tough and unreasonable legends who had just arrived at the school?

If it were the Brave Dancer and the Secretariat, they would indeed be so well-known that all the children would rush to take a look at them.

As for what terrible accident happened?

This should be unlikely. If there was an accident, someone would have called her long ago, and they would all be horse girls, so there wouldn't be any bad situation.

So with this mentality, Rudolph symbolizes arriving at work on time as always.

Then something happened that she didn't expect.

How could there be no accidents?

Of course, the accident happened, and it happened in front of almost the entire school! And then…then the accident came knocking.

Rudolph could not forget the moment just over ten seconds ago when she had just sat down, accompanied by the sound of nervous footsteps and the rare moment when the Emperor of the East China Sea appeared in her sight by hurriedly kicking open the door.

And, uh… the Gotham Carol that she held in her princess arms.

What's going on? Why would the emperor be so nervous, and Gotham Carol just look so helpless? And... why was she only wearing a nightgown when you carried her like a princess? Did you drag her out of bed?

I don't remember teaching you such a thing, Emperor.

Before Rudolph could say anything, he saw the Emperor of the East China Sea quickly put Gotham Carol on the sofa, then grabbed her hand and dragged her hard.

How come this child is so strong!

"President, President! Please save Carol. Don't let her be unable to run the race!"

Huh? Is this really such a serious matter?

Rudolph symbol could no longer sit still, she stood up and began to check what was going on.

If you think about it carefully, the Emperor of the East Sea is a steady child. Even if there is something trivial, he would not immediately find the student union, right? There is only one situation that would make her act so anxiously.

That means she was so panicked that she couldn't think at the first moment, and could only find the person who made her feel most capable of relying on him.

Therefore, even if it is for the determination and trust of the Emperor of the East China Sea, the Rudolf symbol must be taken seriously.

As his vision progressed, Rudolf became more aware of the reason behind the East Sea Emperor's urgency. It wasn't because of something wrong with the Emperor's observation, but...

Gotham Carol, wearing only a nightgown and with her long hair loose, took off her shoes, and blood dripped down her shoes.

Is it a foot problem? This is no small matter! Wait, why are you wearing running shoes? I guess you're running, but why aren't you wearing socks?

Rudolph symbol leaned down and she carefully observed the Gotham Carol's small feet.

Delicate, round, fair, and with skin as smooth as if it contained water droplets, even Rudolph, who is also a horse girl, would actually want to touch it, and the reason is actually very simple.

Generally speaking, Uma Musume's feet are not as perfect as people generally imagine, nor as beautiful as they are. Because of a lot of running, strenuous exercise and wear and tear, it is normal to have some inevitable calluses.

Even with the blessing of the three goddesses, it is rare to be able to maintain a perfect posture like Gotham Carol.

Although it has nothing to do with the current scene, the symbol of Rudolf is that there is a feeling playing tricks on my heart at this moment.

That is…

Even if there are beads of sweat on them, it wouldn't be annoying if Gotham Carol's little feet were this cute, right?

However, this was an emergency after all, and Rudolph the Symbol did not have any particularly strange habits. With the help of strong self-control, Miss Emperor pinched Gotham Carol's ankle with her fingers without any difficulty, and then relied on her experience as a legend to check what had happened.

However, Rudolf sighed symbolically, fortunately he was the only one here. If someone else saw such a thing, it might really induce some strange thoughts.

"Actually, I'm fine..."

"Then you should let me take a look and confirm it, right?"

Rudolph symbolically met Gotham Carol's eyes, and then conveyed his concern and care with his own emotions that contained passionate care.

For Uma Musume, nothing can be considered a trivial matter when it comes to her feet. Therefore, when facing the people in front of her, Rudolph really showed his utmost seriousness. But what can Gotham Carol say when facing such an emperor lady?
