My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World - Chapter 247
Chapter 247
I Recommended That He Play With Leo and Tilura
“Very well. Should I call Leo now?”
“Mmm…”
Mr. Ekenhart nodded, and so I decided to call Leo over.
When I had come out to the garden to work, Leo had come out as well in order to play with Tilura. They were currently running around.
I felt bad disturbing her now, but it could not be helped.
“Hey! Leo!”
“Wuff?”
“Come over here for a minute!”
“Wuff-wuff!”
“What is it, Mr. Takumi?”
I called Leo, who was running, and she immediately stopped and turned towards me.
She then came running over, while carrying Tilura on her back.
Mr. Ekenhart looked like he was about to make a retreat.
“Sorry to disturb your play time. Uhh… Mr. Ekenhart?”
“Mmm… Yes… Tilura? Could you play with Sherry over there for a moment?”
“…Yes. Sherry!”
“Kyau!”
“…Now it’s just the three of us.”
“Wuff?”
I suppose Mr. Ekenhart did not want his daughter to see him like this.
And so he told Sherry to go and play somewhere else. Tilura obeyed him and went away with Sherry.
Leo watched this with her head tilted to the side. And then she turned to me as if for an explanation.
It’s not me that wants to talk to you, it’s Mr. Ekenhart.
“Well…Good Leo.”
“Wuff?”
Leo looked at Mr. Ekenhart, who was talking awkwardly.
It did not look like she was glaring at him, or even thinking about what happened the other day. But I suppose it just appeared that way to Mr. Ekenhart.
“I want to apologize about what happened yesterday…”
“Wuff. Wuff-wuff?”
“She is asking, ‘what happened yesterday?’”
Mr. Ekenhart could not understand Leo, so I interpreted for him.
“I um… I am sorry for putting Mr. Takumi in danger. I promise to never do something like that again, so will you please forgive me?”
“Wuff? Wuff-wuff, wou!”
“What did Leo say?”
“Uhh, really? She said, if it happens again, I won’t forgive you!”
“Yes! It is a promise. I will not put Mr. Takumi in danger again like yesterday!”
“Wou-wou. Wuff.”
“Mmm. She says if that’s the case, you are forgiven.”
“Truly!? Thank you very much!”
As Mr. Ekenhart apologized to Leo, I told him what Leo’s answer was.
Now that he was forgiven, Mr. Ekenhart thanked her with a relieved expression.
…He really did seem happy.
“Wuff-wuff? Wuff, wuff-wou.”
“Hmm? Ah, that’s true. That might be better.”
“…What is she saying?”
I nodded at Leo’s suggestion.
Mr. Ekenhart looked like he dreaded what he was about to hear.
And then Leo and I turned to him and explained what we meant to do.
“Well, Leo is saying… That you will know that you’re forgiven by riding on her. As this is a good opportunity to get used to her, why don’t you play with Leo and Tilura? She will not be running at the same speed as she did yesterday.”
“…I don’t mind playing with Tilura but… With Good Leo? The first time I rode her, it was normal and comfortable but… Yesterday…”
“Don’t worry. Leo understands that perfectly. She will not run like that again. Especially since Tilura will be with you.”
“I see… Yes.”
“Wuff-wuff.”
As Tilura would be playing with them, Leo wouldn’t do anything reckless.
Besides, Mr. Ekenhart had apologized and promised to never do it again, and Leo had genuinely forgiven him.
And since Mr. Ekenhart hadn’t completely overcome his fear, playing with Leo was probably the best way for him to get used to her.
And since Tilura got to play with her father, it was two birds with one stone.
“Now, go ahead.”
“Yes, father!”
“Uh…hmm…”
“Wuff!”
“Kyau!”
I pushed Mr. Ekenhart’s back and encouraged him to get on top of Leo.
While he was still unsure, he gave up any resistance after both Tilura and I pushed him.
And so he got onto Leo’s back with Tilura.
Sherry was on top of Leo’s head…which was her favorite spot.
“Now, Leo.”
“Wuff!”
“Woah!”
Leo nodded at me and then stood up. And then she ran off to the area where she and Tilura had been playing earlier.
When she started to run, Mr. Ekenhart looked surprised and clutched her tightly.
This wasn’t his first or second time, he should be used to it by now… But I suppose this would do the trick.
“Ahhh! Yes, like this, Leo!”
“Wa-wait, isn’t this a little too fast?”
“Wuff!”
“Kyau! Kyau!”
“…They appear to be having fun.”
I muttered as I watched her run from a distance.
Well, it was just Tilura and Sherry who looked like they were having fun. Mr. Ekenhart still seemed uncomfortable.
…Oh, and Leo was enjoying it as well.
“Now, I can’t just pay attention to them. …I have to think about the medicinal wine as well.”
As I had finished making the necessary herbs, I decided to use my free time to think of something that could be used with the wine.
The quality of the wine would depend on this part.
Though, the boiled stuff tasted quite good already.
But as this could lead to a new business for Range village, I had to think about it carefully.
“Medicinal wine… We had something like in my old world, but… I don’t know how it was made…”
I had drunk it a few times in Japan.
But I didn’t like alcohol that much, so it wasn’t often.
And since I never checked to see what was inside, I didn’t know how it was made.
Well, it was obviously Chinese medicine and stuff that is good for you.
“Hmm. What should I do… I don’t know much about Chinese medicine either…”
