The scorching summer sun made it feel like everything was being roasted in a fire, the cicadas in the trees chirped incessantly, and the asphalt road was baked soft by the sun.
"I'm dying." Tokai Teio lay on her back on a chair in the training room like a dried salted fish.
"Why do we still have to train in this kind of weather?" Special Week lay sprawled on the table, groaning in pain.
"..." Daiwa Scarlet and Vodka lay quietly, they no longer had the energy to compete.
"Woo woo woo..." Gold Ship struck a pose like a leader, making unintelligible sounds on the floor.
"Alright, McQueen, don't move like that." Gold Legend said to McQueen.
"Okay~" McQueen let Legend fiddle with her listlessly.
"Everyone, I've bought popsicles." Silence Suzuka walked into the training room carrying a bag of popsicles.
"Welcome back, Classmate Suzuka..." Special Week tried to get up to welcome her, but halfway up, she sprawled back down.
"...It's not that exaggerated, is it?" Silence Suzuka retorted speechlessly. "By the way, where's the Trainer?"
"He went back to the Trainer's office. After all, how should I put it? The training room is too, uh, alluring right now." Legend continued what she was doing and answered casually.
"Indeed." Silence Suzuka looked around and nodded.
Thin fabric soaked with spilled sweat, skin visible due to unguarded movements and postures.
Exposed thighs, barely visible underwear, cool and sexy clothes.
So-called summer has always been like this.
"By the way, what are you doing, Legend?" Silence Suzuka tilted her head and asked. "Why are you tying McQueen up with something like a rope?"
"...Can you not say things that make people misunderstand? This isn't a rope, it's a tape measure." Legend had black lines on her forehead.
"Woo woo woo..." Gold Ship was still making unintelligible sounds.
"Ah, are you measuring sizes? Why so suddenly?" Silence Suzuka asked curiously.
"I've been learning fashion design from Senior Gold City recently. Alright, hmm~ as expected, your waist is larger than the value you said, McQueen, though the bust is correct." Legend raised an eyebrow.
"You're lying!" McQueen was like a dried dead fish at this moment.
"I always feel like you're always learning some strange things, Legend."
You said you were learning music last time.
"Because I've developed a habit, I feel uncomfortable if I don't do something, but I learn very quickly, so I have to keep finding other things to learn." Legend explained.
There is one thing that is undoubted: Gold Legend is a genius.
Since [transmigrating], not only has Gold Legend's physical fitness been constantly getting stronger, but other things including memory, comprehension, thinking ability, and learning ability have also been constantly getting stronger, subtly.
Thanks to this, when studying alongside her seniors, Legend quickly emptied them of everything except their secret techniques.
Gold Legend only discovered this when she started teaching herself music. Although she didn't learn it instantly, she did indeed get started at a shocking speed.
At first, Legend thought it was the credit of the omnipotent [Domain], but unfortunately, after asking her seniors, the answer was that there was no such thing, it was fake news.
Legend could only temporarily attribute it to the benefits of being a transmigrator.
However, since she had such an ability, it would be too wasteful to leave it unused, so Gold Legend happily threw herself into the vast ocean of learning.
"Do you want to measure, Suzuka?" Legend asked Silence Suzuka after recording McQueen's data.
"Can I?"
"It's fine, it's fine, let's just do it together." Legend said, glancing at Silence Suzuka's chest without a trace.
"...I always feel like there's some malice." Silence Suzuka frowned.
"Is there?" Pretending to be dumb.jpg.
"..." Silence Suzuka sat down in front of Legend with a suspicious look.
"As expected, Suzuka, like McQueen, has a great body born for running." Legend complimented.
"...Even I will get angry, you know." Black aura faintly appeared on Silence Suzuka.
"Ah, this..."
"I can't take it anymore!!!!!" Gold Ship jumped up.
"I want to go to the beach!!!!!" She shouted.
"Whoa!" Silence Suzuka was startled.
"...What are you saying all of a sudden?" McQueen, who was drowning in self-deception, was awakened by Gold Ship.
"I can't stand it anymore! Look outside! The sun is shining brightly!" Gold Ship waved her arms and spoke passionately. "In such a beautiful season, are we just going to stay in the room doing nothing?!"
"...Don't mess around, going out in this weather will kill a Uma Musume." Miss Tokai Teio couldn't get motivated.
"I want to go swimming, I want to go running on the beach, anywhere is fine, I want to set up a stall at the beach!"
"...You've always been doing that last one, haven't you?" Daiwa Scarlet, who had been woken up, shared her thoughts.
"...I don't care, whatever we do is fine." Vodka said lazily.
"I'll listen to Legend-san and Classmate Suzuka." Special Week raised a hand.
"But we still have to train, right?" Silence Suzuka poured a bucket of cold water. "And, it's almost time for the summer camp, let's endure it a bit longer."
"There is no more summer camp." Tokai Teio let out a desperate sound. "I heard from the President that the Horse Association is undergoing reforms, and there is a lack of funds, so this year's summer camp has been cancelled."
"Eh! How can this be!" McQueen let out an unbelievable sound. "I finally reached the age to participate in the summer camp!"
"That reform hasn't ended yet." Gold Legend, one of the perpetrators, retorted.
"Looks like we're going to spend this summer like this." Vodka said listlessly.
"Isn't it also quite good?" Daiwa Scarlet said softly.
"It's summer now! The peak of youth! How can you all be like this!" Gold Ship was disappointed by their lack of resolve.
"The beach... alright, let's go then." Gold Legend thought for a moment and said.
"Eh?!" x6.
"Getting some fresh air occasionally is not bad, let's just treat it as a summer camp. Just right, let's choose swimwear for Senior Kinkaku's assignment this time." Legend said nonchalantly.
"We don't have that much funding, right?" Daiwa Scarlet analyzed calmly.
"It's fine, I'll cover the expenses." The rich woman—Gold Legend said.
"Really?!" McQueen said somewhat incredulously.
"Yay! Oba-chan, I love you to death!" Gold Ship cheered.
"But what about the Trainer?" The good girl Silence Suzuka asked.
"I'll give him and Sister Hana some more spots, I hope he knows what's good for him."
Thus, summer began.
