I Just Wanted a Quiet Life... So Why Am I an Uma Musume Trainer?! Chapter 331 - 330 What if Hachiman Was the Big Brother?

This is the estate of the illustrious jiro family—a lineage of imnse wealth and prestige, renowned not only in the racing world but across society at large. The estate boasts dedicated training facilities, recreational areas, and recuperation centers that rival even those of the elite Tracen Academy.

Staffed by experts in every relevant field, the environnt allows an aspiring athlete to undergo top-tier training even before being assigned an official trainer. Currently, seven Uma Musu from the jiro family attend Tracen Academy. They are as close as sisters, and each one commands the attention of the racing world.

However, there is one more figure in their lives—an older brother, separated from them by a few years.

This is his story.

Butler: "Welco back, Master Hachiman. You must be exhausted from your long-term fellowship in Arica. How did you find your studies abroad?"

Hachiman: "Ah, it was enlightening. It felt completely distinct from everything I've learned up to this point. I technically hold a trainer's license already, but I believe I'll be able to be of much greater use to the Uma Musu moving forward."

Butler: "If it is you, Master Hachiman, I am certain there is nothing to fear. In fact, rumors are already circulating that a trainer hailing from the jiro clan has returned to Japan to take up a post at Tracen Academy."

Hachiman: "Is that so? They're already talking... Well, it doesn't matter. As a mber of the jiro family, I intend to beco a trainer who brings no sha to that na."

Butler: "As expected of you, sir."

Hachiman: "Well, to do that, I first need to find a trainee to take charge of."

Butler: "Master Hachiman, I believe you will find that particular worry to be entirely unfounded."

Hachiman: "?"

— The jiro Estate: Living Room —

Ardan: "..."

Dober: "..." (fidget, fidget)

Ryan: "Ugh..." (squirm, squirm)

McQueen: "..." (pace, pace)

Palr: "Is he here yet...?" (stretch)

Ramonu: "...Why don't you all calm down a little? If you exhaust all your energy being restless now, you won't last a mont once you actually see him."

Ardan: "Elder Sister is right."

Ryan: "We can't help it! Our big brother is coming ho! He's been in Arica for three years. Sure, we emailed and called constantly, but actually eting face-to-face is..."

Dober: "Ryan's right, Sister. It's not like we've been able to look him in the eye all this ti..."

Ardan: "I understand how you feel, truly, but the fact remains that we will see him. And McQueen, pacing back and forth is unseemly. perhaps you should learn a little composure from Palr?"

McQueen: "I simply cannot settle down unless I am doing sothing! Besides, Palr isn't composed; she simply lacks any sense of tension!"

Palr: "Wow, tell how you really feel..."

Ramonu: "Sigh... I wonder what will happen when we finally reunite with our dear brother?"

(Knock, knock, knock)

Ardan: "Co in."

Butler: "Excuse the intrusion, ladies. Master Hachiman has arrived."

Ramonu: "! He's here... Very well. Let us go welco him."

Ardan: "Yes, Sister... Oh? Co to think of it, where is Bright?"

McQueen: "I haven't seen her in the room for so ti... W-Wait, surely she didn't...?"

— The jiro Estate: Front Gate —

Butler: "We have arrived, Master Hachiman. Welco ho."

Hachiman: "Finally back, huh...?"

Bright: "My, oh my~. Welco ho, Big Brother Hachiman~."

Hachiman: "Hm? Bright? Have you been waiting out here the whole ti?"

Bright: "Yes indeed~. I am quite good at waiting~." (Hug!)

Hachiman: "Don't cling to my arm the second I arrive."

Bright: "But it's first co, first served, isn't it~?"

Hachiman: "First co, first served?"

The Sisters: "Ahhhhhh!!!!!"

Hachiman: "Hm? Oh, it's been a long ti—"

The Sisters: "Bright!! That's cheating!!"

Hachiman: "...Eh?"

Dober: "Bright! You were the only one waiting at the gate, weren't you?! How could you sneak off and get the best spot for yourself?!"

Ryan: "Yeah! We all promised to wait in the room equally and go greet him together!"

Bright: "Oh my~? Was that the plan~?" (feigns innocence)

Ramonu: "Put that aside for now. Brother... thank you for your hard work studying in Arica."

Palr: "Bro! I missed you!" (Hug!)

Hachiman: "Whoa—you too, Palr? Even so... you've all grown. Save the hugs for later, though. First, I need to go report to Grandmother."

— Later —

After giving his report in the matriarch's study and unpacking his luggage, Hachiman sat down on the sofa in the dining hall. During the entire process—waiting outside the study, hovering near his room—his little sisters had shadowed his every move.

And now...

Hachiman: "Ahh... give a break, will you? I want to hand out the souvenirs I bought for the staff, so could you give a little space? I'll spend ti with you after that."

Ramonu: "Oh, Brother. Surely you should be prioritizing us? We are the ones who suffered the most from your absence."

Ardan: "I agree with Sister. Brother, please let us spoil you a little longer."

McQueen: "Brother Hachiman! Once Ramonu and Ardan are finished, it is my turn, you understand!"

Ryan: "Ah, then I'm next!"

Palr: "Then after that~!"

Bright: "And then it is my turn~!"

Dober: "You two already hugged him earlier!"

Hachiman: "Good grief... this is going to be a handful."

The jiro household is peaceful again today.
