Kapitel 98: The Race for Victory

The stadium was alive with the heat and roar of excitement as the final event of the day, the relay race, was about to begin. Borrowed Item Races had a way of bringing everyone together. It wasn't just about the individuals running, but about the whole class, the whole guild, and the entire group of students becoming one. I could feel it. I was part of that unity, swept up in the energy of the moment.

"Akaya Makoto, sprinting down the final stretch, crossing the finish line with the Pomeranian in hand—GOAL!!!"

Shibahime Shinka's bold—not to mention bizarre—actions brought another victory to our guild, Shimaenaga. With the Pomeranian hat secured, I crossed the finish line in first place.

"Yeah! We're really racking up wins here!"

"Pride pile victory, two first-place finishes in the Borrowed Item Race—our comeback has begun."
