I Just Wanted a Quiet Life... So Why Am I an Uma Musume Trainer?! Chapter 288 287: The Mejiro Confection Conspiracy

Ardan's Side

Everyone, I trust it has been a while since we last greeted each other in this manner. I am jiro Ardan. We have departed from Tracen Academy and co to the training camp, where we are diligently training for the autumn season. Amidst this, I am in the midst of adjusting for my upcoming debut race. Brother also advised against overly intense training, stating that serious conditioning would comnce after my debut race (?), so I am careful not to overexert myself.

Having just completed my training, I returned to my room to relax in more comfortable attire. However, a mont ago, a ssage arrived in a group chat exclusively for jiro Uma Musu, and I am now on my way to the designated eting spot. The sender was Mac.

Ardan: "Could the purpose of this eting perhaps concern Brother's nu plans for August? Yet, would Mac specifically summon all of us for such a matter? I am uncertain…"

—eting Place—

Ardan: "My apologies for the wait."

Ryan: "Oh, Ardan-san! We've been waiting for you!"

McQueen: "I apologize for the sudden summons…"

Dober: "You really did send a sudden ssage…"

Palr: "Now, now, let's hear her out first. Otherwise, Bright might fall asleep."

Bright: "Huh~?"

Ardan: "Then, shall we hear the matter at hand?"

McQueen: "Yes, the reason I've called everyone here is but one… it concerns Ardan-san's trainer."

Dober: "Well, I kind of expected that. It's about the sweets that appear at the sumr training camp, right?"

McQueen: "H-how did you know?!"

Ryan: "What?! If anything, I'd ask you, why would you think we wouldn't expect it after that exchange every single ti?!"

Palr: "Even from a distance, that's hilarious to watch~. Because you're literally crying while eating!"

McQueen: "U-uhu… ///"

Ardan: "Hehehe, I understand the gist, but let's hear her out completely, shall we? Mac, I must state beforehand that I cannot intercede on your behalf, you know?"

McQueen: "—! O-of course!"

Ah… she was most certainly planning to do so. It might have been good to say it upfront. Besides, Brother's own teachers are also present this ti, so it's uncertain if he'll even be able to make any at all.

McQueen: "Therefore, I wish to ask everyone: how does one obtain sweets from one's trainer!?"

Palr: "…Ardan-san, do you think there's a way?"

Ardan: "…W-what indeed?"

McQueen: "There isn't a way!?"

Dober: "But Mac, you always just beg your trainer to share with you, so why not just do that again?"

McQueen: "This ti, the trainer's teachers are here, too, you know!? A jiro Uma Musu simply cannot do such a thing right in front of them, can she!?"

Bright: "Although all the students already know about it, is that alright, you know~?"

McQueen: "I've already given up on that part…"

Ryan: "She's given up on that… But a way to get it from the trainer, huh… I can't really think of anything. Other than just begging."

Bright: "It seems Sister Ryan couldn't think of anything either~. I'm the sa~."

Palr: "Why not just give up and go with your usual thod?"

McQueen: "Absolutely not!! If those individuals were to learn that a jiro Uma Musu was doing such a thing… they would surely be sorely disappointed!"

Dober: "She's really desperate, isn't she…"

Ardan: "It would be good if there were a good plan."

However, I suspect all her efforts will ultimately be in vain, but I shall refrain from saying so for now. It seems better considering future developnts.

Dober: "You sound rather detached."

Ardan: "I would like to help in so way, but from the current situation, the possibility seems low."

Dober: "…Well, that's certainly true."

Ardan's Side Out

Hachiman's Side

Taliato: "Hoh, so such things happen when August arrives during training camp, do they?"

Hachiman: "Yes, that's why it's a bit of a hassle. They ask, 'Don't we get any?' even though there's no reason for them to… Last year, it was apparently so bad that even Rudolph contacted , unable to bear watching."

Man o' War: "Is that so. But it's only during camp, isn't it? Why not just make so for them?"

Hachiman: "The thing is, they even ask when we're at Tracen Academy if they have any free ti. And they even write it in the student council's request forms, so they must be quite serious. I've often thought they should channel that motivation into their races."

Taliato: "However, this year, you won't have such leisure, will you? You didn't participate last year, but this year you have eight Uma Musu under your charge. It seems impossible to make enough for so many."

Hachiman: "Yes, truly… Ah, what about you, Sensei and Professor?"

Taliato: "We'll eat as usual. We also consu a fair amount, but our appetites aren't violently strong."

Man o' War: "I, however, desire Hachiman's cooking!"

Hachiman: "I thought as much… Understood. I'll prepare portions for two more then. Is that alright, Sensei?"

Taliato: "You truly go through a lot of trouble, Hachiman."
