Chapter 1399 No. 18: Sister Sang is a legendary messenger

It’s a cliché by now that Uma Musume is named after the soul of a horse from another world.

Regardless of how many strange and bizarre names of gods and goddesses were born from this, in the feudal period when the family system was relatively stable in the past, there were very direct disputes caused by names and surnames.

As for families like the Symbol family and the Mejiro family, which use Umamusume's surname to mark their family name, this can be considered the result of the reversal of the Tiangang after learning countless lessons.

However, it is well known that only a very small number of such families survived.

More horse girls are born directly from ordinary families.

Fortunately, times have changed, and most families are not as obsessed with surnames as they were in the past. Therefore, the common situation like Aiori's, where the family surname and one's own name are incompatible, is no longer a worry for most people.

The Aiori family was evidently a particularly liberal majority, not unlike the families of the Bourbon, Teahouse, and others.

Although he was not as open-minded as the head of the Satomi family, he loved his daughter so much that he was willing to change the name of the family to a branch family, and forcibly jumped from the original family name to Satomi. In the following years, his descendants successively transformed into Umamusume, and it seemed that he already had the initial conditions of the Umamusume family.

But he is also willing to tolerate all the abnormalities in his daughter.

Including her recently 'found' sister Sang.

The recovery of the youngest daughter who had to be abandoned in the womb due to an unknown fate curse was undoubtedly a surprise that made the couple cry with joy.

Before that, Orihime, who refused to listen to advice and resolve the issue for many years, and even later refused to listen to her daily concerns, had to watch her become increasingly haggard and thinner, getting worse and worse but also becoming more and more sharp. They were very worried that she would collapse one day. Suddenly, one day, she began to apologize to her family, began to curb her self-abuse exercise plan, began to rest, and was even willing to add a few more bowls of rice when eating. She no longer cared about her own nutrition that made everyone worry, and was willing to eat a few more pieces of meat...

It was a series of surprises, to the point that the whole family almost had to thank God.

And when you learn that all these changes originated from a trainer, it is not difficult to understand why Omer said something yesterday that was misunderstood as a mockery by Aiori when Aiori made an invitation and explained.

It is indeed not difficult to understand why the other party's parents wanted to meet her, and even why they had been thinking about it for a long time, but it was only proposed by Aiori today. It is not difficult to understand - with her unwillingness to show off, even being quite low-key, and not liking lively occasions, she must have suppressed her family's proposal at the beginning.

As for why the invitation was made at this time...

Omer's original idea was that it would be normal for parents to take this opportunity to bring it up again on the first day of the new semester.

After learning that Kallen would also appear, he had to come up with a new and subtle conjecture:
Maybe Miss Vega is creating opportunities for lovable roommates who are lovable and sympathetic.

Aiori, who always seems to be rather cold, is actually a kind-hearted child at heart, and has a warm heart that she can hardly hide no matter how hard she tries.

It is not surprising that such people are willing to provide opportunities for those around them when faced with social barriers.

However, the next day, he managed to get out of the emergency arrangement with great difficulty, and finally reunited with Aori and Kallen with Hayabusa. When they finally arrived at each other's house, he was almost "attacked" by the strong way of gratitude with the characteristics of the Far East.

If he had not been observing the other party carefully and had not been able to interrupt and raise his hand the moment the sign of attack appeared, he would have been "attacked" by the other party.

Even though the family interrupted the raising of hands, they still gathered together to express their gratitude, which made Omar feel that perhaps it was simply because they could not suppress their love.

The family members must thank the trainer in person. If they try to stop them, I'm afraid the same thing will happen in front of the school gate.

However, when such things passed, everyone started chatting, waiting for the food to be served, eating at the table, and chatting, Kallen began to lead the topic one after another with a very proud look, getting everyone to keep talking about past events. Then, whether the original second guess was true or not, it did not prevent the result from going in that direction.

Omer knew what Karen meant.

Frequently bring up new topics, talk about the past.

On the surface, he is stimulating himself with the secrets of Umastar and Vega, but at the same time he is also emphasizing the thorough past that he has forgotten.

Since among the horse girls present, only Suzuko was the one whom Omar had just met this year, there might be some emphasis on first come first served.

However, Hayako herself did not control the effect of the medicine well, and Aiori's appearance did regress to that of a junior high school student. This topic was naturally brought up, and even easily attracted the enthusiastic participation of Aiori's mother - she found a classic photo album from somewhere and started to list all the photos of the girl since she was a baby, which made it impossible for the person involved to do anything.

Aizhi, who probably also experienced some personality regression, was more indecisive than she was now. Her biggest failure was not being able to interrupt her mother's spellcasting immediately. As a result, she gave up and ran away in less than half an hour. She hid in the bedroom and locked the door, refusing to cover her ears and steal the bell, rejecting the whole world. It was not until another half an hour later that Omar, who had heard a lot of past stories from his aunt, knocked on the door and finally opened a crack.

"What are you here for?"

Even though her appearance had regressed several years, Miss Aiori's cold tone remained the same, and her chubby little face showed through the crack in the door.

It can be seen that the three years from junior high school to high school are the critical period of her development. Now her height of just 1.5 meters is obviously different from her previous height of 1.61 meters.

As for this little face... after her heart knot was untied, she ate and drank well, and received guidance from trainer Linton, a real nutrition researcher. She is obviously plumper than before. It is hard for Omer to say whether her condition has completely regressed or she just had baby fat back then.

After all, even though they knew each other back then and Miss Vega dared to reveal a little of her address when they went camping, she had never actually sent her photo to Omer.

"It depends on Ms. Vega's response whether to say goodbye or just have a chat." Omar smiled faintly, his words having the tone of a text that made little Orihime angry back then.

But she wasn't quite what she once was.

"Are you going back now?"

"Hayako kept asking to stop by the office, and it was hard for me to join in the conversation between her and Kallen."

"Then why did you agree to let her come along?"

"I thought Miss Vega agreed to her coming, and even agreed to Kallen coming to make it easier for both of them, right?"

Although the reality is that it is difficult for anyone to be relaxed, the original intention is not difficult to guess - right?

"I..." The girl seemed hesitant to speak, which made Omar raise his eyebrows slightly.

"I asked her to come here..."

"Oh?" Omar raised his index finger and pushed the right frame of his glasses. "Miss Vega's timidity is kind of cute."

"No, you can't say that, and it's not..." The girl said in a weak voice, as she made the gap in the door a little narrower, "It's not to give me courage."

"And what is it for?"

"Yes... yes... don't mind my business!" As if she remembered that she could still be angry, the girl's tone suddenly became heavier after a brief silence, making her look even more adorable in the soft and sticky tone that had not yet completely faded away as a junior high school student.

"Okay, let's get back to the original topic. Do you want to talk about something or take us back?"

"My sister wants Kallen-chan to assist! If you can pin down Hayabusa-san, you can be alone with the trainer!!"

"..." x2
Just as I finished speaking, I heard words coming from the crack in the door. Those words seemed strange because of their liveliness, and even stranger because of their content. Then silence fell again.

"Oh!"

The door slammed shut, leaving Omar alone looking at the patterns on the door, as if he was observing them very carefully, but in fact his eyes were unfocused.

Stop making noise, I'm grilling.jpg
After a seven-second brainstorm, Omar took off his glasses and pinched his nose. When he was about to turn around and leave, he heard the slight sound of the door opening. He turned around and saw that the door had been opened a little again.

"Um...are you...uh, do you want to come in?"

"I think it's okay for me to stand at the door."

“…You better come in.”

"Then I would be disrespectful."
