"Phew… It looks like things are finally over."
After this incident, Kitano, who had already anticipated this situation, promptly logged into the forums and expressed his apologies to the senior trainers—although he felt he hadn't done anything wrong, that's just how the workplace is. As a newcomer, it's best not to steal the spotlight from your seniors. Being too prominent easily attracts resentment.
Kitano had experienced this kind of life a few times before, and it could only be described as tragic. Now, having gone through several cycles in the workplace, Kitano was like a piece of dough that had sunk to the bottom of a breakfast stall's deep fryer—a seasoned old hand.
Kitano knew all too well the consequences of a new employee being too conspicuous. Therefore, even if he felt he had done nothing wrong, he had to apologize to his seniors for the reason of "causing trouble for everyone."
But to Kitano's surprise, the senior trainers' attitude towards him was unexpectedly good. In the trainer group chat, voices teasing him were everywhere, but all the seniors were like a bunch of goofy netizens; not a single one showed any disgust towards Kitano for this matter, nor were they jealous that he had won the favor of a large number of horse girls.
In fact, seniors like Fujiwara Reiko, Silent Suzuka's trainer Nishino Taishi, and Twin Turbo's trainer Kusunoki Hajime… many seniors sent private messages to Kitano, saying that his ideas were right and that they were very happy that their junior could have such awareness.
This was somewhat unexpected for Kitano. The seniors' attitude was completely different from the several cycles he had experienced before. However, he seemed to have forgotten that although he still considered himself a mediocre talent, in the eyes of others, he was no longer the incompetent person he once was. Now, he had the halo of a "genius."
And it was practically an unwritten rule in this world that geniuses receive preferential treatment. But now, this genius in the eyes of his seniors, Kitano, was incredibly humble and down-to-earth. He would drink with his seniors, cater to their interests and hobbies, wasn't arrogant, and was also very capable.
Who would dislike a junior who was both hardworking and talented, could get along with everyone, and would provide some entertainment for everyone from time to time?
Kitano's stereotype of himself was also quite severe, to the point that he didn't even understand himself anymore. He hadn't realized that he was no longer the person he was in the first cycle. After so many cycles, even if his aptitude was dull, he had already undergone a complete transformation.
A junior who is talented, humble, and approachable, with his own principles; versus a junior who is mediocre, reclusive, prone to arrogance, and exceptionally lucky—which one would you prefer? The answer is, of course, obvious.
But in any case, it was good that the problem was solved. Kitano let out a sigh of relief in his heart. Then, he turned his gaze to another horse girl who had been by his side all this time.
"...Mihono-san?"
"Yes, Kitano-san." Mihono Bourbon's reply was still as calm as ever.
"Don't you think our distance is a little too close? Not to mention we don't even have an official charge relationship yet. Even if we did, wouldn't this be a bit too intimate?"
The distance between Kitano and Mihono Bourbon at this moment was probably less than a centimeter, to the point where if either of them made a slightly larger movement, their shoulders would touch.
Generally speaking, if two people could be this close, it wouldn't be a problem for the woman to take the man's arm. But the problem was, Mihono Bourbon knew very well that she and Kitano were not a couple. However, now that she had confirmed Kitano's identity, she didn't want to leave his side for even a single step.
Thus, such a delicate relationship was born. Mihono Bourbon looked like she wanted to get closer but was stopping just short, which made many passing horse girls chuckle to themselves. Fortunately, although Mihono Bourbon was a little shy inside, her expression showed no cracks.
The only one suffering was Kitano Ryuichi. Ever since he came out of the cafeteria, Mihono Bourbon had greeted him and had been following by his side ever since. At that time, Kitano was busy dealing with the forum matters, so he didn't pay attention.
Unknowingly, an hour had passed, and Mihono Bourbon was still in this state. Kitano was finally starting to feel a little unsettled.
Mihono Bourbon had clearly just finished training and had rushed over as soon as she heard about what happened to Kitano in the cafeteria. She hadn't had time to shower and was still drenched in fragrant sweat. Dressed in her sportswear, she was so sweaty that even her loose sportswear seemed to cling to her body.
And Kitano also felt a faint scent drilling into his nostrils—it was the smell of Mihono Bourbon's sweat.
Don't get me wrong, even the sweat of a beautiful girl is definitely smelly. But who allowed this world to have creatures called "horse girls"? The physical structure of horse girls has many advantages and special features compared to humans. As "creatures blessed by the Three Goddesses," how could they not have special characteristics?
For example, they don't need surgery for any injuries and will recover on their own over time; or the well-known fact that their physical fitness is at least three times that of humans; and the officially certified purity and innocence of their feelings...
So, under so many factors, it's quite reasonable that a horse girl's sweat isn't smelly, isn't it?
Of course, it's just not smelly, it definitely doesn't smell fragrant. But the sweat of horse girls, according to rumors, seems to have the subtle effect of stimulating adrenaline and exciting the brain. Although the effect varies from person to person, it's not without basis.
There are even classic cases where some more sensitive horse girls become addicted to this stimulation. For example, part of the reason why Silent Suzuka loves running so much is because she is more sensitive to this stimulation, and it's an instinctive reaction to be immersed in it.
Of course, there's nothing wrong with that. Such stimulation is good for a horse girl's daily training and races, making it easier for them to perform at a higher level. It's just that Suzuka's trainer is always worried that she will over-train and her physique won't be able to keep up...
But, this also made another aspect of horse girls more troublesome—as everyone knows, exercise consumes stamina, and consuming stamina leads to a lot of sweat.
