The MC's voice resounded across the tranquil racetrack, proclaiming the victor of the race, as a hush descended over the spectators, gripped by the intensity of the competition that had pitted the four contenders against each other in a high-speed battle.
The MC's announcement rings out even as Hera and the others are still catching their breath. "Diamond, the two-time consecutive champion, returns to claim its third championship title on the national stage! This young steed hasn't lost an ounce of its momentum despite a year's failure due to an accident from racing! Congratulations to the winner!"
Only then did the spectators seated along the track rise up in a fervent uproar.
The spectators erupted into cheers as they rose from their seats, applauding Hera and Diamond's victory. Hera gently tugged on the reins, prompting Diamond to gradually slow down until it came to a halt, releasing a puff of steam from its nostrils, a testament to its exertion during the race.
