Uma Musume Pretty Derby: To The Basement

Chapter 392 392: Uma Musume Pretty Derby: To The Basement [392] [400 STONES]

After successfully catching Maruzensky, the little thief who had stolen a bite, Symboli Rudolf and Air Groove did not pass judgment on her right there. Instead, they planned to take the criminal back to the Tracen Student Council for trial.

Before leaving, however, they spoke privately with the race officials and had them make sure tonight's race footage would not spread all over the internet. Even if it was posted, Mizuno's face had to be blurred out to prevent more Umamusume from being affected.

Once that was taken care of, Symboli Rudolf and Air Groove escorted Maruzensky and Mizuno back to Tracen Academy.

Tracen on Tanabata night was exceptionally quiet. Almost every Umamusume had dragged her own Trainer downtown for a date and to watch the fireworks. Even the Umamusume who had not managed to invite their Trainers had gone along to join the fun.

Tracen Plaza was empty and dark. Beneath the moonlight, the statue of the Three Goddesses in the central fountain seemed to give off a faint, hazy glow.

At that moment, the lights in the Student Council President's office, located in the staff area, turned on. The warm glow spilling from the window stood out sharply among all the dark rooms around it.

Symboli Rudolf and Air Groove pressed Maruzensky down onto the sofa on one side, tossed Mizuno onto the sofa at the other end, then stood in the middle like iron bars, separating the two "criminals."

"Do you have anything left to say?" Symboli Rudolf crossed her arms and looked down at Maruzensky from above, as if interrogating a death-row criminal guilty of the most heinous crimes. The indignation radiating from her was completely undisguised.

"I have nothing more to say. Please carry out the sentence at once." Even after being caught stealing a bite by her best friends, Maruzensky showed not the slightest fear. She still held her head high, chest out, wearing a gentle, big-sisterly smile, as though she had done nothing wrong at all.

If you liked someone, you pursued him. If there were many rivals, you struck first. That was an eternal truth in the war called love. What had Maruzensky done wrong?

On the contrary, Maruzensky even felt that Symboli Rudolf and the others were the ones with the problem.

Judging from how furious and flustered Symboli Rudolf and Air Groove were, they had definitely liked Mizuno for a long time. At the very least, longer than she had. But what had they actually done?

Circle around him together with the other rivals? Blush and let their hearts race over something as simple as holding his hand?

Maruzensky did not quite understand what state of mind Symboli Rudolf and the others had been in to suppress their feelings and keep from making a move on Mizuno. But either way, as a Front Runner who blasted to the front the instant the gate opened, she absolutely would not hold back for even one extra second!

If the mood was right, kiss him. If the mood was not right, kiss him anyway. The more, the better. If you got the kiss, you profited!

"Worth it!" Maruzensky licked her lips, savoring the sweet taste from Mizuno's mouth, her Umamusume ears trembling with excitement despite herself.

"Worth it, huh?" Symboli Rudolf was so angry at Maruzensky's answer that she laughed. Her face instantly darkened, and veins bulged on her forehead.

For one instant, she truly wanted to lock this dear best friend of hers in the Special Education Base and make her cellmates with that equally headache-inducing Gold Ship.

Unfortunately, Symboli Rudolf could not do that, because Maruzensky's crime was not serious enough. After all, she had only kissed Mizuno without everyone's consent, and Tracen's rules did not state that kissing a Trainer was forbidden. So at most, Symboli Rudolf could condemn Maruzensky morally for stealing a bite. She could not actually punish her.

"Damn it..." Symboli Rudolf bit her lip, turned her head toward Mizuno, and questioned him.

"And you. Why did you let her kiss you?"

"Huh? Me?" Mizuno pointed at himself.

Come on, it wasn't like he had wanted Maruzensky to kiss him. He had been shocked by the sudden forced kiss too, okay!

"Of course it's because Onii-sama likes me very much too~" Maruzensky smiled and answered in Mizuno's place, making a heart with her fingers.

"Onii-sama?" Symboli Rudolf's eyelid twitched.

"That's your fetish?"

"It is not!" Mizuno hurriedly waved his hands in denial, then turned his head and pleaded with Maruzensky.

"Maruzensky, your personality has already recovered, and you can stand on your own again. You don't need to keep calling me big brother anymore, right?"

"Ehh~" Maruzensky drew out the sound meaningfully and teased him, "Is Onii-sama getting shy?"

"You really don't have to be shy. If you want, I don't mind calling you that every day..."

"After all, this imouto of yours wants Onii-sama to cherish her for the rest of her life~"

"Achoo~~"

By the lakeside downtown, Rice Shower, who was watching fireworks with her companions, suddenly sneezed.

"Mimi, what's wrong?" Haru Urara, beside her, noticed and blinked, asking worriedly, "Did Mimi catch a cold?"

"I don't think so..." Rice Shower shook her head, touched the sachet hanging in front of her chest, then gave Urara a peaceful smile. "Maybe I just miss Onii-sama a little."

Although she had not been able to invite Onii-sama out to play tonight, Onii-sama must be working hard right now for everyone's future.

...

"Spared from death, but not from punishment!"

Symboli Rudolf stared straight at Mizuno lying on the sofa, discreetly wiping away the drool that had accidentally leaked from the corner of her mouth with her sleeve.

"Since you don't know how to refuse, I'll personally play the robber this time and properly teach you what to do when someone tries to rob you of your virtue!" Symboli Rudolf chuckled, intending to use this opportunity to put into practice a plan she had never dared carry out on Mizuno before.

"Don't!" Mizuno fearfully shrank into the corner of the sofa, arms shielding his chest as he took up a defensive posture against Symboli Rudolf.

But while the two of them were still facing off, Air Groove, who had remained silent all this time, circled around to Mizuno's side first. She suddenly bent down and kissed him, directly sealing his mouth.

"Mm!" Mizuno's attention had still been entirely focused on Symboli Rudolf. Caught completely off guard, his lips and teeth were pried open by Air Groove's tongue as she drove straight in.

A sweetness even richer than expected slid over the tip of her tongue, and Air Groove's tail instantly stood up like an antenna.

She had waited so long for this moment!

"Hey! Air Groove! What are you doing?!" Symboli Rudolf finally reacted. She grabbed Air Groove around the waist with both hands and desperately pulled her off Mizuno.

Shouldn't she, as the actual President, be the first to do something like this?! How could the Vice President have no sense of deference at all, stealing the first bite ahead of her?!

But as soon as Symboli Rudolf dragged Air Groove away, Maruzensky, left unattended, slipped over and seized the chance.

"Chu~~"

"Maruzen! Stop!" Symboli Rudolf's eyes widened, grief and rage tearing through her. She flung Air Groove aside, then hurriedly charged over and violently shoved away Maruzensky, who had been in the middle of enjoying herself.

Symboli Rudolf straddled Mizuno. A few drops of saliva fell onto his face, and not the slightest trace of calm could be seen in her pale-purple eyes.

"Now it's my turn..."

"No!!!!" With no power to resist before three veteran Umamusume, Mizuno could only let out a despairing wail toward the ceiling.

"Rice Shower! Save me!"

That night, the lights in the Student Council President's office stayed on until dawn...
