Chapter 373: line with translation of chapter title

~10 min read 1,908 words

Although chess players aren't unable to step onto the field, doing so is quite mentally taxing.

Fighting while also commanding something like that.

It involves not only multithreading but also high computational power.

It's not that he can't do it; he also has Galatron and Mefilas to assist with computation.

But…

Is it necessary?

Clearly one could let others handle this, yet insists on doing it personally and bearing it all.

He really doesn't want to do anything that accumulates sudden-death points.

Even as a trainer he needs to develop three proxy commanders, showing his caution and his slacking-off heart.

However, speaking honestly, Qianming's representative hasn't appeared recently, but at least the account activity remains active; yesterday she also sent a message inquiring about his health, and Miss Dazhenhan even showed strong life skills—the drink pairings discussed in the chat logs could be extracted to fill a page.

But only a certain lone wolf miss.

Don't know where she went to act as a lone wolf; her Umastagram activity hasn't moved, usual communication is scarce, and this time Aomo was sent to the hospital and didn't receive her inquiry.

Recent news is still from five days ago about the performance between him and Ludaofu Xiangzheng.

Chengtian BaiRen received a greeting from Qianming, and specially went to confirm him, which is quite cautious; by comparison, her sister Pipa Chen Guang doesn't distrust Qianming that much, just sent a line: "I've understood the situation from Senior Qianming; I'll cheer you on!"

Cheer… cheer support?

Aomo, not very used to the way Jidong people speak, at first glance even thought he had to go on stage to perform.

But not long after that he indeed went to spin discs, just that Pipa Chen Guang didn't come (x).

Aomo also had no regrets.

Originally he also didn't hope everyone would come to watch.

Moreover that person is a true corporate slave, when coming to school still wears an OL suit; Aomo seriously doubts her vacation reserves are even less than Miss Junchuan's.

This point can be seen by looking at Miss Dazhenhan who obtained a trainer certificate.

A trainer at least counts as half a teacher position, able to take long vacations alongside the horse girls.

But applied to Aomo it doesn't really feel real.

A cautious trainer can be so cautious as to start formal training of the horse girls several months before the debut race, even using holidays for it—this practice, when posted in the trainer chat room, draws comments from everyone: "Good buddy, too cutthroat!", "Secretly cutthroat cutthroat!", "Don't ruin the market (mistranslation)!", "As expected of the Lindon trainer, I'll also step up!", "?".

Aomo thought he didn't initially intend to pack the training schedule so tightly.

Not mentioning anything else, at least the training schedules of Chazuo and Suzi have undergone several revisions.

From a sparse schedule to a detailed arrangement, only a self-disciplined cyber horse girl is needed.

People have a competitive streak, and horse girls even more so.

When a certain self-disciplined cyber horse girl daily increases her own intensity, and although unintentionally, she often sways in front of her two classmates, and when mentioning training status to the trainer in front of them at high intensity.

The two horse girls' sense of crisis and competitiveness then arose.

East Flame many schools form a 'rocket class' based on academic performance, and parents also desperately push their children into it, aiming to use an environment where everyone studies to compel and assimilate.

However, even a sense of crisis and competitiveness could not change Chazuo's routine, nor could it shake Suzi's determination to arrange the experimental segment for herself.

All that can be said is that it's already rare to be training every day.

But these past few days have seen relatively frequent days off.

First came Bourbon's electrical killer problem, then Suzi and Shinjo participated in the monster exhibition, while Chazuo proceeded with normal self-disciplined training.

But today, with home renovations, it's another day off.

Some chose to watch the renovations, while others opted to go out together.

It's the trainers who are the most diligent!

— They've already taken this opportunity to go straight to a part-time job!

At this moment, they are sitting together with the action team inside the armored vehicle compartment, their eyes habitually scanning the light screen for the research guide on correcting gait.

How dedicated!

Dedicated!

But even such a diligent pioneer still cannot earn others' approval.

Just like a black-haired woman they met again, who couldn't help but speak with a dissatisfied expression: "You're not planning to say anything?"

Huh?

Aomo raised his eyes, looking at the person who had walked up to him, a 'magician' belonging to the Clock Tower.

Tohsaka Rin

It was an awkward reunion; besides her, several other magicians were sitting together in the distance, constituting one side of the Clock Tower.

They were a special detachment responsible for confirming the transfer of goods, and at the same time they served as a temporary escort for the convoy.

Though said to be so, in reality it's just surveillance.

Although the Fate/Grand Order world is not lacking in powerful beings with astonishing destructive power, nor is it lacking in strange rule-based techniques and talents.

But Aomo does not think that these people present, including Tohsaka Rin, could exert any significant combat power when things really go wrong.

After all, the cargo they are responsible for is ORT's activated tissue.

ORT, also known as Ort, also called the Mercury Giant Spider, the Extreme Singleton Species, the Aggressive Lifeform.

Although in the work, when it exists, its design concept is 'helpless despair'—that is, a hidden boss stronger than the main story's final boss.

Usually there is no concept of death; even if torn into pieces, it will recombine and repair itself like a slime.

But similarly, in the work there are records of god‑like beings dying from falling after breaking through the atmosphere.

Its purity is still not as high as that of a certain individual in the same work who runs naked while holding a tablet, Sense.

Of course, the official added a severance declaration, stating that individuals from different worlds would have different manifestations, and in the ORT work setting memo, someone even said:

When it comes to enemies——! They should be unidentified flying objects! They should be the strongest aggressive lifeforms! They should be a design so awesome it makes you sweat! Speaking of which, even a princess wouldn't stand a chance against such a thing! Who, who, hurry up and call Ultraman!

Now that we're in reality, that's not impossible.

The Holy Terra Federation indeed has several Ultramen, even Ultraman human hosts, who are "experiencing life".

There are also quite a few monster tamers and monsters.

However, what's placed here is merely a small sealed organization, about the size of a rice cooker.

Not to mention the Feathered Serpent God, even having a child is a stretch.

But for this relatively unknown thing, just looking at the information provided by Yuechi Logistics, he still feels the actual output might differ.

By then, unless Rin Tohsaka's jeweled sword can open a hole in the parallel world to send that thing away, otherwise he doesn't really want to fight something that can constantly regenerate and might have astonishing output.

"Ah, what kind of reaction is that…" Rin Tohsaka, who was originally dissatisfied, was left somewhat weakened by his reaction, "You don't plan to talk about something?"

"I'm studying." After pulling open the light-screen display, showing the other party the content on it and then switching back, Aomo said, glancing at the silent mages holding their phones far behind her.

In the otherworld memory, the Clock Tower rejects technology.

But in the actual memory, the Clock Tower has been different in his over ten years of hearing.

Certainly, there are reasons beyond just the mages of the original Clock Tower contained within the Clock Tower itself, but also because reality is stronger than people.

Still rejecting technology there, it might really be blown away by technology.

"You're not a mercenary? Knowledge of a supplementary training instructor?"

"Yeah, but mercenaries also need to study, right? Promotion exams also have a written section."

Since the other party spoke up, Aomo also closed the light screen, looking at her side: "You guys have nothing to talk about? I thought they were your acquaintances."

"My acquaintances are at headquarters… uh, sorry for disturbing your study."

"I'm also just squeezing in some free time, not expecting to learn much," Aomo said, glancing at the big crate not far away, "Is that ORT also being shipped to Constant City?"

The Terra Federation's Clock Tower headquarters is located in that Earth border city; Aomo's impression of that place is that the security is pretty poor, and he doesn't know if the Clock Tower will explode every few days.

"Just ship it to Canaan City; if ORT's organizations are too close together, the containment device might overload."

"How did you think of asking Yuechi Logistics to transport this?"

Aomo recalled that the company transporting Greliza was also a shell company of Yuechi Logistics, and the disassembled "Existence-Nonexistence Converter" was also placed on ORT's organization display stand; Moriarty might know something.

"It's in contact with the Archaeology Department and the Mineralogy Department; I'm not too clear either."

Anyway, it won't be like Miss Rin Tohsaka who knows nothing despite asking three times; it seems they're really just errand runners.

Mastema beside them also shook his head, and the Angel came over: "Boss Linton, you know them?"

"How did I become boss again? We agreed to use code names; I'm just a temporary worker."

"The boss said you might get kicked out of the company as soon as you turn around."

"Thanks to him for setting a reverse flag for me."

"So, shouldn't Linton introduce himself?"

"Didn't we already introduce ourselves when we first met?" Aomo looked at this guy, somewhat speechless.

"Huh? Is that so?"

"At that time, Xiao Le was greeting the pallbearers and the Xi and Ling sisters." Mastema added or reminded.

"Are the two monsters in the other two cages okay?" Texas, not joining this gossiping topic, just turned his head to look at the nearby miniature-scale cage, inside which lay two beasts unrelated to Fate/Grand Order but directly related to Aoshen.

The Nakkel alien's bodyguard monster, Black King.

The super-ancient komainu monster Gai Di.

In a sense, both are considered domesticated-type monsters; the latter is probably not the one beside Xie Di, but rather a same-breed counterpart.

It might not even deserve to be called Gai Di, but since that's what the label on the cage says, Aomo just remembers it as such.

"The dormancy values on the device are good." Aomo was debugging the terminal app interfacing with the system of that miniature-scale cage, and also typed a greeting to the online real-world Yuechi Logistics data monitor.

"If you're asking whether there's any problem now, then there definitely isn't any."

"But I think Lappland, assigned to the rear car, might have a problem."

After all, she is together with the pallbearers, Xi and Ling, and the escorts provided by Yuechi Logistics.

The experience of fear is shared by the monsters.

This chapter finished at 5:30... Lately I've been staying up very late, feeling a bit stuck.

Sorry, I'll take a day off tomorrow.

Rest a day to adjust my schedule a bit.
