Chapter 1141: with translation of chapter title

NO．46：Clarify, trainers still have holidays.

"Side by side! Almost completely side by side! The Prefecture Central racecourse hasn't seen a trifecta in ages! Let's look at those three tiny gaps on the screen!"

"Look, the winner of the Autumn Blossom Prize is——!"

——

Aomo knows well a Dongyan saying: if you mess around, you always have to pay it back.

The simple understanding of this saying is Shu's ability.

Causality.

Whether good or bad, everything you do will be rewarded or require repayment.

One thing he cannot deny is that although he has always regarded mercenary work as his main job and being a trainer as a side job, in reality……

As a trainer, being an official fixed-term position that solidifies interpersonal work, it will always feel more substantial than starting a mercenary agency!

Rather, you can hardly find work looser than mercenary work.

Even though agency mercenaries have far greater stability than ordinary mercenaries (meaning you're guaranteed toilet‑cleaning jobs, while ordinary mercenaries have to fight for them), the freedom—or lack of regulation—inherent to mercenary work will still leave you facing periods with nothing to do.

Either you get unsatisfying jobs, or you wait for satisfying ones that never come.

Whether agency or freelance mercenaries, as long as you're picky, you'll often have dry spells, so many of them take side jobs.

Even side jobs often overturn the natural order—dropping mercenary work and making it the main job!

Of course, Aomo is not picky.

This person often hopes others will come to the agency for toilet‑cleaning, letter‑delivery, or find‑a‑cat‑or‑dog jobs, which could be called highly unconventional for a practitioner, but unfortunately he is the founder of his own agency.

An industry that lives off connections—letting young people in usually leads to ruin.

Although he didn't go under and even secured extra sponsorship from clients (meaning symbolic patrons), he skipped the usual agency mercenary progression because from the start he only took big jobs, bypassing the gradual ranking process that builds an agency's style and finds one's niche.

It's like a gifted horse girl being pulled to run the Arima Memorial right at debut, succeeding and then discovering her long‑distance aptitude—so from now on you run long distances!

That's what outsiders say.

What do you think?

Of course, if it really is horse racing, the horse girl's opinion matters—she wants to run middle distance, she wants to run short distance, you have to let her try.

Unfortunately, in the mercenary world that's a whole different vibe.

—You're doing C‑rank jobs, even took a B‑rank, you wouldn't expect headquarters to hand you EFG‑rank jobs, would you?

—Please! What rank are you?! You wanna scramble for work with those mercenaries just scraping by?! Cut it out!

Saying that is like thinking if I can kill a troll I'm not allowed to kill goblins.

Though Aomo Lindun is thoroughly dissatisfied with the state of the industry, he never actually used the agency's low‑level priority privilege to siphon off petty cash jobs from low‑rank mercenaries.

If it turned out to be a fallen noblewoman whose assets are frozen, strong‑willed and cut off from family, relying only on low‑level jobs to earn tuition, then the job you skimped could be someone's half‑month living expenses.

Leaving that aside, Aomo isn't in a hurry about work.

After all, unlike Ailisuzhi, he has fully understood himself and realized from recent experience that he's a work‑obsessed person.

Why go to the board to take jobs? Just let Chen, Shijia, Gui She, and He take care of the lowest attendance quota for the agency; I only need to maintain my daily attitude and make good use of my clueless eyes.

Then a damned troublesome big job will show up and get thrown in my face!

This attitude looks laid‑back, but it's backed by very clear data.

Though these big jobs often look like "no income for three years, then three years of income," whether in pay or substance they're always high‑paying or high‑value, but they also need time.

During that time, his side job and his trainer work still show the strong presence a fixed‑term job should have!

It makes you start to wonder unconsciously which is really the main job.

But Aomo Lindun is a demon with firm conviction.

Although Thus we output: Thus we output: Thus we output: QiuChuan chairman thinks being a trainer is his main job, he insists mercenary work is his main job, so mercenary work is his main job!

Having decided mercenary work is his main job, he can comfortably give his few horse girls a big‑shot script mode.

The Triple Crown script management is already active—who dares say my horse girls aren't trained well? Lay out a track, let your horse girls come out and run.

My horse girls and I can run (?).

This is Aomo Lindun the trainer: his book knowledge is being filled in rapidly, his practical training isn't that of a novice—when an accident happens he just waves a big shot a hand, and as a trainer he's also saving the world, and when needed he can personally jump in and run with the horse girls; as soon as you question his attitude——ahhhhh!

Addendum: the shout might be yours, meaning you saw his true soul.

Attitude?

What attitude?

My attitude is clearly fine!

But it's undeniable that these past few days, Aomo Lindun, who pretended to be on vacation while getting tangled in all sorts of male‑female relations, has indeed neglected his assigned horse girl and hasn't even managed to take a break.

And now, on this double day off.

On the trainer's statutory holiday, also in the afternoon after he settled his girlfriend, after accepting an invitation from colleagues and friends to regain some past passion——the assigned horse girl spoke up.

Relatives of the Autumn Blossom Prize contestants also sent a message.

Oh, the latter is just telling him to stay out of it, which is fine—it's not asking him to work overtime.

But the former is indeed here to make him work overtime.

Just a few simple words, the map is short and not enough to scroll, yet it's fully effective, because those were the words from the original contract.

'Every match, every showdown, I seek, I summarize, their path to victory—through guesswork, trial and error, I find the point of success and then give it to you.'

You pursue speed, and I give you victory.'

Even without crystal core help, Aomo won't forget the pledge‑like words he once said.

Just as a horse girl's career lasts at least two years, and the strict‑sense newcomer race still hasn't truly begun, this promise meant for high‑intensity combat segments has yet to be shown.

And now, his assigned horse girl says we can begin.

Although the newcomer race hasn't arrived yet, the scouting, summarizing, guessing, and trial‑and‑error against future opponents can already begin.

He was even tasked with analyzing it as his first purpose, to help the other side become stronger.

But as always, you're crazy, Suzi.

But since they brought up that remark again, Aomo could only repay the words he'd said when he was out hanging out.

The overtime that had to be done still hadn't ended even when the three crossed the finish line.

Just watching the noble lady achieve her two consecutive championships, seeing those three runner-ups, he bowed his head, unable to see the peak of her demeanor.

And the one who placed third, the Celestial Palace, whose demeanor looked quite unstable.

He turned his head again and glanced at the one who was simultaneously lightly patted on the shoulder by those beside him, whose expression was quite dejected, Yan Hui Er.

"... So just reaching a consensus isn't enough......"

"What? What consensus?"

The demon couldn't help but sigh, and then attracted the curiosity of a nearby friend.

And seeing his curious expression, the demon couldn't help but turn his gaze back to the window gap that he hadn't yet closed.

As the behind-the-scenes mastermind of this scene, and also the retired horse girl under the sunny big guy before him, Dazhenhan's portrait still hung there silently, without a word.
