Inside the Academy, Tokai Teio was leading Tokai Mochizuki around, looking at everything.
However, compared to Tokai Teio, most of the Uma Musume in the Academy were more interested in the person being led by Tokai Teio.
Inside Tracen Academy, apart from Trainers and staff, there were rarely any humans.
So, compared to Tokai Teio, Tokai Mochizuki attracted a lot of attention from the Uma Musume.
And the two who attracted a lot of Uma Musume's attention certainly couldn't have gone unnoticed by Rudolph.
But she just stood in the distance, watching.
She didn't dare to go up and approach those two.
So, she just looked at the Uma Musume in front of her: "Alright, your tour is over, hurry back."
Looking at the two Uma Musume in front of her, Rudolph just said this, then continued: "If there's anything else you want to see, you can, too."
As Rudolph said this, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
And looking at the smile on Rudolph's face, the two Uma Musume just shook their heads, then left Rudolph's side and went straight out of the school.
Looking at the two young Uma Musume who had left the Academy grounds.
Rudolph Symboli straightened her back.
She loved Tracen Academy, loved the Uma Musume who strived for their dreams within it.
But... thinking of those she had arranged who were already starting to complain.
Rudolph then understood that perhaps the planned actions needed to be moved up.
Thinking of this, Rudolph Symboli just turned around and walked towards the school grounds.
The number of children each person can host daily is limited; otherwise, there wouldn't be only one Tracen Academy in all of Tokyo.
So, very quickly, most of the Uma Musume who came to visit Tracen Academy had already left.
But... after escorting the last two Uma Musume to their parents, Rudolph Symboli turned around, and then,
She saw a pair of children.
One was an Uma Musume, the other a human.
It only took half a second for Rudolph to realize their identities.
Tokai Teio and Tokai Mochizuki.
Because today, they were the only two to appear in Tracen Academy in such a combination.
Rudolph wanted to avoid them, but by then, the two had already turned their heads.
After all, they had already been escorted to the academy entrance; there was no need for other Uma Musume to continue escorting them.
So, even Rudolph couldn't find a place to hide at that moment.
Therefore... "Ah, it's Miss Emperor!"
"Ah? Emperor?"
Hearing Tokai Teio's excited voice, Tokai Mochizuki looked with a puzzled expression in the direction Tokai Teio was looking.
Then, she saw Aunt Luna from that day.
Looking at Aunt Luna standing at the entrance of Tracen Academy, Tokai Mochizuki looked at Teio again: "Is that Miss Emperor?"
"Yes!"
The joy overflowing from her words made Tokai Mochizuki pause for a moment, then she spoke: "Then let's go over, but we probably can't stay too long."
"Mhm, mhm!"
After a simple response to Tokai Mochizuki, Tokai Teio immediately took a step, leading Mochizuki to run forward.
"Teio!"
Unlike before, this time Mochizuki, being pulled along by Teio, didn't manage to stop Teio; she could only let herself be pulled along by Teio.
Fortunately, the distance wasn't too far, so Tokai Mochizuki didn't suffer much; Mochizuki was embraced by a soft body.
Saving her from getting hurt by Teio dragging her along.
The one who hugged Mochizuki was none other than Rudolph Symboli.
Rudolph had already prepared when she saw Teio dragging Mochizuki over.
She first hugged Mochizuki, then grabbed Teio's back collar.
After confirming that Mochizuki was not hurt, Rudolph let Mochizuki down, then turned to Teio: "Tei..."
Rudolph Symboli, who almost said her name, just coughed, then continued: "While I know you're eager to see me, next time, when you're with someone, you can't run so fast, Teio."
There was no excessive intimacy.
Rudolph merely reminded Tokai Teio like an elder, then looked at Mochizuki: "Are you alright?"
"Ah, th-thank you."
"Good that you're alright." Saying this, Rudolph Symboli finally stood up: "Alright, what do you two need?"
"Um, Miss Emperor, I..."
"I know, you're my fan." Saying this, Rudolph paused for a moment, then continued: "I always remember you, because you crashed my press conference back then."
Rudolph turned to Mochizuki: "And you?"
"Aunt Luna?"
"Mhm, it's me."
A simple question and a simple answer, the relationship between the two was already clear.
And watching the inexplicable conversation between these two, Teio just tilted her head: "Mochizuki, you know Miss Emperor."
"Mhm, because I met her once before."
After casually responding to Teio's words, Mochizuki looked at Rudolph.
The hug just now wasn't as gentle as Tokai Shizen's, but it was warmer.
And what Mochizuki cared about most was that Rudolph's hug carried a subtle familiarity, just like what she had always felt from Tokai Shizen.
Seeing that Mochizuki had no intention of responding to her, Rudolph didn't say much; she just turned to Teio: "Teio."
"Um, Miss Emperor?"
"...No, nothing, hurry up, today's open house is ending."
"Ah, it's already that late."
"Mhm."
After Rudolph's response, Tokai Teio looked at Rudolph Symboli; she wanted to say something.
But Rudolph spoke first: "Teio, I'll be waiting for you at Tracen Academy, don't worry so much."
Rudolph lied.
She knew that by the time Tokai Teio entered Tracen Academy, she would most likely have already dropped out due to the Climax Cup.
This was a lie destined to be exposed.
But for Rudolph, it was necessary.
Parents can't tell their children they can't do something.
So, Rudolph chose to lie.
And after hearing Rudolph's words, Teio's expression changed again: "Really? Miss Emperor, don't lie to me."
"I won't, I'll wait for you to enter Tracen Academy."
Saying this, Rudolph led the two children to the academy entrance: "I hope to see you both at Tracen Academy later."
"Mhm!"
Teio's response was direct.
And Tokai Mochizuki did not respond; she just stared at Rudolph, pondering the subtle sense of familiarity she had just felt.
