Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: The Protagonist’s Exclusive Seat

In the afternoon of that day, after the morning class, the four members of TCB came to the team's activity room and prepared to start the afternoon training.

"Good afternoon, Trainer-san."

"Trainer-san is good~"

Kitasan Black and Satono Diamond greeted Sakura Baimu with energetic voices.

These two little Umamusume who had just entered school arrived earlier than Tokai Teio and Mejiro McQueen.

"Hello, have you finished lunch?"

Sakura Baimu also smiled and greeted Kitasan Black and Satono Diamond.

"It's done," Satono Diamond replied.

"The cafeteria at Tracen is really delicious. It has everything in unlimited quantities," Kitasan Black said with a smile.

"Just finishing eating is good. Our training time is very tight. If you don't eat enough, you may not have enough strength to support the two of you training until dinner time."

Sakura Baimu said casually, then took out two printed documents and placed them in front of Kitasan Black and Satono Diamond.

"Take a look, this is the game plan I customized for you two this year. For Dia-chan, it will focus on strengthening training, while for Kita-chan, your training time will be shorter than Dia-chan's. There will be more races."

"Okay."

"Thank you, Trainer-san."

After Satono Diamond and Kitasan Black thanked Sakura Baimu, they both picked up their respective training and game plans and looked through them.

Satono Diamond had no objection to the above arrangement, but Kitasan Black was suddenly stunned after looking through it a few times.

She showed a look of disbelief, flipped the plan to the front, and then read it carefully again.

After watching it for the second time, Kitasan Black's cute and energetic face was already full of surprise.

"Kita-chan, what's wrong?"

Satono Diamond looked around in confusion, and then she was stunned when she saw the plan in Kitasan Black's hand.

Because she saw that the races Sakura Baimu arranged for Kitasan were twice as many as hers.

"Train... Trainer-san, is this 'a little more' you meant?" Kitasan Black looked surprised.

"Dia-chan and I will have our debut match at the end of June, right? Counting the debut match, Trainer-san, you have arranged a total of six matches for me... that's one match a month. Are you serious?"

Satono Diamond was shocked again when she heard Kitasan Black's words.

Sakura Baimu had only arranged three games for her, but she didn't expect that Kitasan Black would actually have twice as many games as her.

"Really, but don't be surprised. It doesn't matter if you don't train enough. What I said is mainly to accumulate competition experience and prepare for the Oka Sho next April. After all, your feet are not suitable for running mile races. If you want to adapt as soon as possible, you can't train leisurely like this." Sakura Baimu explained.

"Okay... let's do it."

Kitasan Black's teeth were chattering a bit.

Competing once a month since her debut? Let alone training, it may be difficult to adapt to the new venue.

She could even predict that when she participated in competitions in the future, she would run an unachievable result due to insufficient training and not adapting to the venue.

"Kita-chan." Sakura Baimu saw Kitasan Black's hesitation, so she called out, "If you have any opinions about the schedule, you can raise them at any time. If you must aim for the undefeated triple crown, then I can help you customize the plan."

When Kitasan Black heard Sakura Baimu's words, her ears suddenly twitched. She was slightly touched.

When she was having lunch today, there was a senior Umamusume sitting at the next table who looked very serious. There was a glowing blue earring at the base of her right ear, and a robot-like signal receiver on the other side.

Kitasan Black recognized her as Mihono Bourbon who had nearly won the Triple Crown before.

During her chat with Mihono Bourbon, she learned that Mihono Bourbon's trainer is very serious, and the training tasks and plans he formulated cannot be changed by Mihono Bourbon.

Although Mihono Bourbon did not have any intention of disobeying her trainer, Kitasan Black felt that if Mihono Bourbon disobeyed the instructions given by her trainer, she would probably be reprimanded by her trainer.

Regarding the schedule and training arrangements, an Umamusume is definitely not as good as a trainer who has received professional training and examinations before entering the Central Tracen Academy.

Therefore, there is absolutely no need for Sakura Baimu to listen to her opinion as a talented trainer who has already trained two of the strongest Umamusume in the previous class.

Kitasan Black certainly had no problem with Sakura Baimu's plan; she was just shocked after seeing so many matches.

But what she didn't expect was that after Sakura Baimu saw her expression, she directly said that she could modify the training and competition plans according to her wishes.

Kitasan Black felt that the distance between her and Sakura Baimu had been shortened for a moment. Sakura Baimu's respect for her made Kitasan Black feel extremely helped and even a little touched.

Sakura Baimu is really much easier to talk to and kinder than other trainers.

Kitasan Black raised her right arm and made a movement like a bodybuilder showing off her biceps. She shook her head slightly, smiled at Sakura Baimu and spoke.

"It's okay, Trainer-san. I'll just follow your arrangements, and I will do my best to respond to your expectations. Even though I have just joined the team, my physical strength and strength are second to none!"

"Okay, let's proceed like this first. If you feel uncomfortable later, please tell me at any time. Don't worry about making me feel dissatisfied. Keeping your thoughts in your heart may cause big problems."

"Okay!" Kitasan Black nodded heavily.

"You two wait a little longer until Teiō and McQueen arrive, and then we'll go training."

Sakura Baimu took out her phone and checked the time. She felt that Tokai Teio and Mejiro McQueen were coming soon, so she continued chatting with the two newcomers.

This is an essential part of fostering the relationship between trainer and Umamusume.

"By the way, you have started your normal classes in the morning, right? How is it? Where are the positions of you two assigned?"

"Dia-chan was assigned to the corner seat in the last row by the window, and I was next to her."

Sitting elegantly on the chair in the activity room, Satono Diamond replied softly.

"Hey, this is the special place for the protagonist and heroine. You're lucky, Kita-chan."

Sakura Baimu smiled and patted Kitasan Black on the shoulder, making her and Satono Diamond a little confused.

"The people who sit in your position are all outstanding Umamusume, Kita-chan. As far as I know, the people who sit in this position include Teiō, Special Week, and Oguri Cap. You must also know their records, so I say you are lucky."
