"So, Sky, where are we going?" After leaving Tracen, Luo Cheng asked his companion. Even though he'd familiarized himself with the area, it was still easy to get lost in this massive metropolis.
"Just follow me, Trainer. Sei-chan is taking you to a wonderful spot."
"Sky, do you always wear your uniform outside?" Luo Cheng remembered the "outfit unlock" notification from earlier.
"Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. It depends on my mood. Right now, Sei-chan is in a great mood and feels like wearing the uniform."
"What about casual clothes?"
"I wear those when I don't want to move and just want to relax."
"I see." So current Sky wants to 'move'?
After walking along the main road for about ten minutes, Luo Cheng spoke up. "Let me help you, Sky." The fishing gear looked quite heavy.
"Ohh~ Trainer knows how to be considerate. Alright then, you take this, and I'll take this." Sky handed him the fishing rod and then took his hand. "This makes things much more convenient."
"True."
As a "veteran driver" who had experienced countless positions, this level of interaction no longer made him shy. Luo Cheng had skipped the "romance" phase and gone straight to the final step. It was like playing a dating sim where you watch the ending first and then go back to see the process. It was still interesting, but it lacked the original spark.
"Trainer, I also brought a bento. Let's eat outside at noon, take a nap, and then head back in the evening. How does that sound?"
"You've thought of everything. Are we going to fish for—"
Before he could finish, his phone rang. It was Tokai Teio.
"Who is it?"
"Teio. I'll let her know."
"Let me." Sky took the phone, hung up the call, and typed out a text.
[Meeting at Central today. I'll be back late.]
"You're lying like that?"
"Trainer is out with Sei-chan today. You shouldn't be thinking about anything else." Sky leaned against Luo Cheng's arm, her tail coiling around his waist. This was exactly what Teio had done—a sign of maxed-out affection. One max-affection girl was fine; two was dangerous. Luo Cheng couldn't even imagine what three or more would be like.
Soon, Teio replied: [I'll wait in your room for you to come back.]
My room? Can she get in? Probably. He hadn't locked the door. Wait! Cafe was still in his room! Was she awake? If she was still sleeping there when Teio arrived... Luo Cheng could already see Teio flying into a rage at finding Cafe in his bed.
"Sky, let's stay out tonight!" Luo Cheng decided on the spot. He had no intention of going back before this event ended.
"Stay out...? Hmmm~ is Trainer planning to do something to Sei-chan?" Sky smirked, her face beaming.
"What if I am?"
"If you are... well, Trainer, have you forgotten that you're the weaker one here?"
"Maybe I'll break human limits just to pin you down, Sky."
"Then you're welcome to try. I'll cheer you on! To help you break those limits, let's definitely stay out. Tracen is too noisy; it's much quieter out here. Just the two of us, with no one to disturb us. We can do whatever we want."
Soon, they crossed the streets and entered a forest near the base of a mountain. The crowds thinned out, and the sound of traffic was replaced by birdsong. Luo Cheng looked up at the lush canopy.
"What is it, Trainer?"
"No... nothing." Luo Cheng remembered his first month here, when he'd fled to the Tracen woods to escape reality. That had been an unforgettable time.
"Are we there yet?"
"Almost... Tada!" Sky pushed aside some bushes and pointed to a large pond. Nestled within the forest, the water shimmered with a green luster. There was a large, flat rock by the water—a perfect natural fishing spot.
It was impressive that Sky had found such a place.
"What do you think, Trainer? Isn't it great?"
"Only you could find a place like this."
"Hehe. Let's get ready then." Sky began tinkering with the gear. She soon assembled two rods, patted the spot next to her for Luo Cheng to sit, handed him a rod, and the two of them began a leisurely afternoon of fishing.
Watching the green surface of the water, Luo Cheng's mind went blank. He was "skunked"—not a single bite.
"Trainer, you can't just stare at the water like that. You'll scare the fish. You have to be like me." Sky propped her rod up, rested her hands behind her head, and lay back on the flat rock.
"Won't the fish get away?"
"Don't worry. Sei-chan is listening." Sky pointed to her ears. A horse girl's hearing was incredibly sharp. Even through thick walls, they could hear the slightest sound.
As expected of a master angler. Professional.
But Luo Cheng didn't have that much patience. He needed something to kill the time. And right here, he had the perfect "tool" for that. Luo Cheng patted his lap.
"How about a nap here?"
"Oh? Trainer, you're very proactive today. Usually you're the one who likes lying on my lap."
"Today, I'll let you be the one in charge for once."
He wanted to ruffle Sky's ears. Those slightly pointed, fuzzy ears were the ultimate toy. You could spend a whole day just kneading them. And the horse girls loved it, too; it always left them flushed and blissful. Some would even refuse to leave his side afterward, acting as a permanent body pillow. Most of them had quite large ears.
And so, Luo Cheng began stroking Sky's ears. He knew her weak spots. Whenever his fingers brushed the inner part of her ear, Sky's body would twitch as if she'd been struck by an electric current. Luo Cheng never grew tired of it. This was another way to "play" Uma Musume. The more they squirmed under his touch, the more it proved his superior skill. Luo Cheng's "experience points" in this field were skyrocketing.
"Trainer." Finally, Sky spoke up, her voice strained. "This place is far from the city. It's almost impossible for anyone to come here."
"Yeah. What about it...?"
"So, even if something happened out here, no one would ever find out." Her ears were already satisfied; now Sky wanted to satisfy somewhere else. "I was going to wait until you fell asleep tonight, but since you're so impatient, I don't need to wait anymore."
Sky sat up and leaned in, her nose sniffing from his chest, to his waist, and then to his lower abdomen. She licked her lips and grasped Luo Cheng's belt. "I'm digging in~"
