I Just Wanted a Quiet Life... So Why Am I an Uma Musume Trainer?! Chapter 212 - 211: Fuji Kiseki Arc - To the Mejiro Estate

Hachiman's POV

Hachiman: "Thanks for having , Butler-san."

Butler: "Of course, Hikigaya-sama. Please let know if you need anything."

Hachiman: "Will do."

Two days after the incident, I'm at the jiro estate, luggage in tow. Yesterday, Ardan made a suggestion that led to this.

Flashback: Outside Miho Dorm

Ardan: "…Anii-sama, I have a suggestion."

Hachiman: "A suggestion?"

Ardan: "Your plan to lay low is practical, but you'll still need to go out. The dia will likely swarm not just the academy but your ho too."

Hachiman: "If it happens, it happens."

Ardan: "Yes, but we can prevent it. My suggestion is for you to stay at the jiro estate temporarily. No one will find you there, and even if they do, they won't dare act recklessly."

Hachiman: "…"

Ardan: "What do you think, Anii-sama?"

Hachiman: "…You sure it's okay for to impose?"

Ardan: "Of course! You're more than welco."

Hachiman: "But don't you need permission? A regular trainer like staying over seems… off."

Flashback End

The jiro matriarch gave a two-word "gladly accepted." Two words? Why'd she agree so fast?

Hachiman: "Where's the jiro matriarch? I'd like to greet her since I'll be staying."

Butler: "Madam is in her study. Shall I take you to her after showing you your room?"

Hachiman: "Yes, please."

Inside the Estate: Hallway

Hachiman: "This place is as grand as I rember—luxurious decor, traditional vibes. Great atmosphere."

Butler: "Thank you for the complint. Please share those words with Madam."

Hachiman: "Will do."

Butler: "Here we are. This will be your room, Hikigaya-sama."

Click

Hachiman: "…Huh?"

The room's straight out of a mansion. Every piece of furniture screams luxury.

Hachiman: "Uh, sorry… Is there a normal room for regular people in this place?"

Butler: "Miss Ardan instructed us to prepare this room for you. I'm afraid we don't have rooms with plainer decor. My apologies."

Hachiman: "…Alright, if there's none, it's fine."

Butler: "Please let us know if you need anything. Shall we proceed to Madam?"

Hachiman: "Yes, right away."

Butler: "Very well."

Outside the Study

Knock knock

Butler: "Madam, Hikigaya Hachiman is here to greet you."

Matriarch: "Let him in."

Butler: "Understood. Hikigaya-sama, please enter."

Hachiman: "…Excuse ."

Matriarch: "Welco, Trainer Hikigaya. My granddaughters are always in your care."

Hachiman: "No, I'm the one grateful. I'll be imposing for a while."

Matriarch: "Treat this as your ho. We'll ensure your comfort."

Hachiman: "Thank you. Can I ask sothing?"

Matriarch: "Yes, what is it?"

Hachiman: "Why'd you agree so quickly? Even if it's your granddaughter's idea, I figured you'd need ti to think it over."

Matriarch: "…Two reasons. First, your character."

Hachiman: "…We've never t, have we?"

Matriarch: "When Ardan cos ho, she talks about you with such joy. Other girls ntion you too. That alone tells who you are."

Hachiman: "…I see."

They've been talking about …?

Matriarch: "The second reason… your sweets."

Hachiman: "…Huh?"

Matriarch: "You made desserts for McQueen's whims, yes? I tasted your cake—it was delightful. So, my request: make sweets on your days off. Will you?"

…McQueen's ancestor, huh? Sweet tooth must be genetic.

Hachiman: "Got it. I'll make so on my days off. Any preferences?"

Matriarch: "I leave it to you."

Hachiman: "Alright. I'll stay until things calm down."

Matriarch: "Very well."

Hachiman: "Excuse ."

…Never thought I'd co to this house and get dessert requests outside of McQueen.

Hachiman: "Uh, Butler-san, does the matriarch like… shoujo manga or muscles?"

Butler: "Who can say?"

Wait, no way. Liking sweets, reading shoujo manga, lifting weights, taking hours to eat, using old slang, making homade drinks—that's not her, right? The sweet tooth reveal's got paranoid…

Afterword

Hachiman takes refuge at the jiro estate in this Yahari x Uma Musu chapter, thanks to Ardan's clever suggestion. The matriarch's warm welco—and unexpected dessert request—lightens the post-incident tension. Is McQueen's sweet obsession hereditary?
