I Just Wanted a Quiet Life... So Why Am I an Uma Musume Trainer?! Chapter 222 - 221: Fuji Kiseki Arc - The Girls at Camp

Rudolf's POV

Rudolf: "…"

Creek: "Oh my~…"

Suzuka: "Spe-chan…"

Hayahide: "Ha…"

Ryan: "…"

Oguri: "Today's August 1st, right? Normally, Trainer would be cooking for us. But this year, he's not at camp… My stomach feels so empty…" Highlight off

Spe: "Food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food food…" Highlight off

Brian: "at… I need his at right now…" Highlight off

McQueen: "Trainer-san, what's this year's dessert~? A cake, maybe~? Please share with ~!" Highlight off

Rudolf: "…This is hard to watch."

Hayahide: "Sorry, President. My sister's causing trouble."

Suzuka: "Team Polaris' trainer isn't here, so they should give up…"

Creek: "Oguri-chan…"

Ryan: "Mac's not any better… Talking to Trainer-san when he's not here. To get like this…"

Hachiman-kun, I know it's a futile wish, but please, co to camp. These four are getting worse by the day, and today's just… unbearable.

Rudolf: "Haven't you tried talking to them?"

Suzuka: "We have, but…"

Tama: "They're not respondin'! Dunno if they hear us or not, but they've been like this!"

Creek: "Even Tama-chan's voice isn't getting through. Maybe it has to be Trainer Hikigaya's voice?"

Rudolf: "…Give a mont."

Camp: Outside

Rudolf: "Please, pick up…"

prrr… prrr… prrr!

Hachiman: "Yo, Rudolf?"

Rudolf: "Hachiman-kun, thank you for answering."

Hachiman: "…You sound stressed. Let guess—the four of them?"

Rudolf: "They've been off since they learned you're not joining camp. Training's fine, but I think it's because they can't eat your cooking."

Hachiman: "And? You're calling for what? I'm not coming there now, no way."

Rudolf: "The next month worries . I want to boost their motivation. Hachiman-kun, could you prepare sothing when we return from camp? Even sothing small."

Hachiman: "Sounds pretty bad."

Rudolf: "Yes, it's hard to watch."

Hachiman: "…Alright, I'll help. An injury would be no joke. Rudolf, you're back on the sa day as the last two years?"

Rudolf: "Yes, exactly."

Hachiman: "I'll cook then. Tell those four."

Rudolf: "Got it."

Hachiman: "See you then."

Rudolf: "Thank you, Hachiman-kun."

This should help. Ti to tell them.

Camp: Cafeteria

Rudolf: "I have good news for the four of you. Care to hear?"

Four: "…" Muttering

Rudolf: "Hmm, I see… I just spoke with Hachiman-kun, but maybe it's not worth ntioning."

Oguri: "T-Trainer!?"

Spe: "Trainer-san!? What did he say!?"

Brian: "President, spill it!"

McQueen: "What did Trainer-san say!?"

(((((They're hooked…)))))

Rudolf: "I told Hachiman-kun about you. He agreed to cook for you on the day we return from camp."

Oguri: "Really, Rudolf!?"

Rudolf: "Yes, he said so. So don't doubt—hm? ♪~"

A ssage from Hachiman-kun… "Show them what I'm making." Heh, tempting.

Brian: "Don't stop mid-sentence."

Hayahide: "Brian, watch your tone."

Rudolf: "It's fine, I don't mind. Here, take a look."

Oguri: "This is…!?"

Spe: "Wow, looks delicious!!"

Brian: "…Good at."

McQueen: "Desserts!? President, no desserts!?"

Rudolf: "Sorry, no dessert photos—♪~ Another from Hachiman-kun… jiro McQueen, no need to worry. Look."

McQueen: "This is…!?"

Rudolf: "A French pastry, mille-feuille. Not just any mille-feuille—this is a Mille-Feuille aux Fraises, called a Napoleon pie in Japan. It looks delicious."

McQueen: "…" Sparkling eyes

Rudolf: "Hachiman-kun will make this, so give your all for the rest of camp."

Oguri: "Alright, let's do this!"

Spe: "Trainer-san's food is waiting when camp's over!"

Brian: "Heh, can't wait."

McQueen: "Yes… Yes, indeed!"

Hachiman-kun, it worked… sort of. But why do I feel conflicted about food being their motivation?

Afterword

Rudolf saves the day in this Yahari x Uma Musu chapter! Oguri, Spe, Brian, and McQueen are down without Hachiman's cooking, but his promise of a post-camp feast (with Napoleon pie!) reignites their fire. Poor Rudolf!
