Anmokume listened to Hokubu Genkoma's words, and the confusion in her eyes quickly gave way to brightness. A look of sudden understanding appeared on her face.
"I understand!"
She cried out, her tone filled with the realization of fog being swept away:
"Senior Oguri Cap's acceleration is like... like the time you suddenly dashed forward during hill training, Senior Xiao Bei?
"Senior Super Creek is like the feeling we had after running three thousand meters, when the Trainer still had us accelerate and sprint the final four hundred?
"Senior Inariichi... that's like how, during every Training Race, you suddenly put on a burst of speed in the final straight and passed me?
"So what I have to do... is completely unleash all these feelings during the race! Right?!"
"That's right, that's right! Exactly!"
Hokubu Genkoma nodded repeatedly, an excited smile spreading across her face as if to say, You finally understand.
Then, as if seeking final confirmation, she looked expectantly at Yasui Makoto:
"Makoto, Anmokume... understood it correctly, right?"
Yasui Makoto watched the scene, his eyes filled with undisguised astonishment.
He could clearly tell that Anmokume had not only understood Hokubu Genkoma's analogy, but had even accurately connected it to specific situations from their daily training—and she was... completely correct.
Because according to the data, the several situations Anmokume had mentioned happened to correspond exactly to the most ideal scenarios he had considered.
Yet this kind of performance had never appeared in Hokubu Genkoma herself.
Hokubu Genkoma had extraordinary talent, but early on, when it came to certain tactical concepts that required delicate perception, she often needed him to explain them repeatedly through various examples if she lacked the corresponding practical experience.
Or, more directly, he could immediately arrange a Training Race and let her experience it for herself.
