Uma Musume: I am the Card Master

So it turns out we don't need to win.

Suiyuan patted Ennis Wind God's head, "Now it's all good. You've taken down your senior sister. If nothing unexpected happens, it's a sure thing."

Suiyuan couldn't help but laugh again; this was just too outrageous!

An awkward smile appeared on the face of the wind god, Ennis.

At this moment, Azure and the other racehorse girls were also filled with doubt about life, and Azure was slumped in her chair as if she had been burned out.

"Seriously, are all the new recruits these days monsters...?"

…………

"Hello, your racehorse girl has passed the preliminary test and will now proceed with the interview."

If you pass, congratulations on your horse girl joining Treson Academy!

The staff member came to the lounge and announced that, after the test just now, it was obvious that the staff member's attitude towards Ennis was significantly different.

"Okay, I know."

Suiyuan gave a brief response.

Then Suiyuan turned his attention to the wind god Ennis.

"Alright, go with this guy. The interview at Treson Academy emphasizes sincerity; just say what you mean."

There's no need to hide it.

Ennis, the Wind God, nodded nervously. "Sincerity, say what you mean, I understand!"

After she finished speaking, she stood up. Seeing her like this, Suiyuan couldn't help but find it a little funny. She hadn't been this nervous during the most difficult test just now.

I was so nervous during a small interview.

The staff couldn't help but laugh when they saw this; the duo looked really funny.

…………

Ennis followed the staff into a bright room with a chair in the middle.

Several people were sitting in front of them.

Suiyuan wasn't there at the time; if he were, he would have recognized the three people being interviewed at a glance.

The symbols of Rudolf, Tsuna, and Yayoi Akikawa, the chairperson of the board of directors of Treson Academy.

Logically speaking, the interviewers shouldn't have been the three of them.

However, because Toshiyuki had only been a trainer for two months, he had already caused such a big change in Urara and Oguri, in addition to Rudolph's symbol and energy gauge, as well as Tsuna's approval.

All of these factors combined led to the reappearance of Akikawa Yayoi, who had not shown her face for a hundred years.

…………

Ennis, the wind god, sat nervously in the chair, while the three people curiously examined him.

In the end, it was Rudolf who symbolized being the first to speak.

"Hello, Ennis, welcome to Treson Academy for your test. May I ask you a few simple questions?"

"But...it's okay."

"Anis the Wind Goddess said quickly, and you could tell from her constantly fidgeting fingers that she was really nervous."

"Miss Ennis, there's no need to be so nervous. The questions we're asking are all very basic, so please relax."

"I'm so gentle," said Tsuna, her voice gentle and caring towards all the racehorse girls.

Rudolf then produced a piece of paper with the questions to be asked written on it.

"Then, I'll begin."

The first question is, are you willing to join Treson Academy for your studies and life, if someone forces you...?

"No, I'd love to join! The trainer is great, he won't... Sorry, I was rude."

Ennis Wind God realized he was getting a little too excited halfway through his sentence.

"That's alright. Second question: do you like running?"

Ennis, the Wind God, nodded seriously. "I like it very much."

Rudolf looked at the collection of questions and said, "So, the last question, what keeps you running? Is it just because you like it?"

Ennis, the Wind God, recalled Suiyuan's words: "Say what you mean, there's no need to hide anything."

"It's not just about liking it, but also about wanting to bring victory back to the trainers. Seeing their happy smiles during training is what keeps me running!"

A happy smile spread across the face of Aeneas, the god of wind.

Rudolf symbolizes putting down the problems he was dealing with.

"Then, let's make a decision. I agree."

As he spoke, Rudolf symbolically raised the sign that indicated passage.

"What a wonderful child!"

Surugawa Tezuna, passed.

"Approved!"

Akikawa Yayoi, passed.

Rudolf stood up, smiling at Ennis the Wind Goddess. "Welcome to the team, Ennis the Wind Goddess!"

Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Chosen Working Class (Seeking Flowers)

"Wow, that's amazing! Ennis, you're the only person in all these years to beat a debut Uma Musume during the entrance exam!"

Ulala looked at the Wind God of Ennis with excitement.

"It's awesome."

After swallowing the sausage in his mouth, Xiao Limao also gave a thumbs up.

"hey-hey…………"

Ennis, the wind god, laughed sheepishly.

Suiyuan watched this scene from behind with his arms crossed. He wondered what the defeated racehorse girls would think if they knew that Ennis Wind God had exploded due to a misunderstanding.

…………

"Ahem, now our Aurora team has three members..."

Before Suiyuan could finish speaking, Ulala started clapping.

Little Chestnut Hat and Ennis the Wind God also applauded upon seeing this.

Suiyuan was dumbfounded. "Why are you clapping?"

Ulala, perched on the head of the group, said, "But I usually clap when this part comes on TV!"

Suiyuan helplessly pointed a finger at Wulala's head.

“We are not some cold, impersonal company; we are a group, a family.”

A family doesn't need all those fancy things; just do whatever makes you happy.

Suiyuan continued the previous topic.

"Where was I saying? Three members? Oh right, right!"

It was only after Ulala's reminder that Suiyuan remembered, "Now we have three members. Xiaoli Mao, you should focus on getting better while waiting for me to register you for the competition."

"Ok."

Little Chestnut Hat nodded, indicating that he understood.

"As for Ulala, you just need to keep improving your basic skills. I will also help you find suitable competitions so that you can quickly qualify for G-level events."

"Ulala will try her best!"

Ulala became excited when she heard that she could participate in the G-level competition.

"Finally, there's Ennis the Wind God."

Suiyuan looked at the wind god Ennis.

Upon hearing Suiyuan speak of himself, Ennis the Wind God straightened his back.

"Your strength is already quite good, and I've scheduled your debut battle for one month from now."

This month I will guide you through learning professional running techniques such as proper running form and starting techniques. If you progress quickly, you can also practice your basic attributes.

Suiyuan held up one finger, "Although you have a very strong opponent, my requirement for you is... to achieve a great result in your debut battle!"

Ennis the Wind God's eyes lit up. "No problem, Trainer. I will do my best to meet your expectations!"

Suiyuan took out his laptop. "Next, let's talk about the recent event schedule, Oguri Hat."

"I'm here."

"There are no matches scheduled recently, so you can focus on improving your skills. If nothing unexpected happens, your next match will be G1."

"clear."

"Ulala."

"I'm here, trainer!"

"The Green Pine Appreciation Competition, which is in two weeks, is a relatively easy local event. You will participate in that competition."

"Understood, Ulala will definitely win!"

Suiyuan put away the tablet. "That concludes the meeting. To celebrate the addition of Ennis the Wind God, let's go out for a meal!"

"Great!"

Little Chestnut Hat and Ulala excitedly raised their hands.

Only Aeneas, the god of wind, had a hint of worry in his eyes.

Ulala and Little Chestnut Hat might not know, but she knew exactly how much Suiyuan had spent for her.

Although he wanted to say something, Ennis the Wind God did not say it.

She knew that if she told her, her trainer might find out that she already knew the guarantee test required money.

…………

The next day, Toshihiro prepared a nutritious lunch for his three racehorse girls as usual.

Everything else can be disregarded, but a nutritious lunch that provides adequate nutrition cannot be forgotten.

Suiyuan sat in the activity room, looking miserably at the meager balance in his wallet. It seemed unlikely he could make it until next month's paycheck.

"It's a problem, we don't have any other sources of income right now."

The only thing Suiyuan can feel right now is a headache.

"It's so hard to be without money."

Suiyuan slumped onto the table, completely lost in a relaxed, laid-back state.

Among all the trainers, Toshiyuki is quite frugal.

While other trainers went out to play, Suiyuan was working; while other trainers were learning more, Suiyuan was working.

Suiyuan saved all the money he earned. If Suiyuan hadn't been so good at saving money, he probably wouldn't have had enough money to guarantee the test for the Wind God of Ennis, even if he wanted to.

"Should we get them part-time jobs while they're in class...?"

A thought suddenly popped into Suiyuan's mind.

This idea spread rapidly and soon took over Suiyuan's reason.

He pulled out a newspaper from the side and got right to work!

If you can't even overcome the smallest difficulties, what kind of trainer are you!

Soon, Suiyuan found a part-time job, got up, grabbed his coat, and went out—all in one smooth motion!

Let's go, the working class is back online!
