My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World - Chapter 278
Chapter 278
Sherry Was In A Bad Mood
“She hates me now…”
“Well, don’t worry. I’m sure she will be back to normal after some time has passed. I think…”
I didn’t know much about fenrirs, but unless they were used to it, animals did not like it when you touched them while they are eating.
In fact, I had once done the same thing as Tilura, and touched Leo while she was eating and was almost bitten.
She was used to it now, and would allow me to pet her. Besides, we could communicate now, so there was no worry about her biting me.
In any case, it hadn’t been that long since Sherry started to live with humans, so she wasn’t fully acclimated yet.
A wild animal… Well, she was a monster, so it could not be helped that she was cautious.
“I will apologize to Sherry again later…”
“Yes. I think that would be best.”
“By the way, what are you going to do today, Mr. Takumi? You were saying something about going to town yesterday…”
So Tilura had been listening to my conversation with Mr. Ekenhart.
She had looked so sleepy…but I had underestimated her.
I suppose children were like that. They listened to what adults were saying more than you’d think. And so I couldn’t let my guard down.
“Yes, Leo and I are going to go to Ractos. …Though, not immediately, as I have to make the herbs first.”
“I understand. I have to study until lunch time… And then I will apologize to Sherry and we can play together. Also, since I didn’t do my swings yesterday, I will do them while you are away!”
“Haha. Do your best then.”
“Yes!”
So Tilura intended to do her swings after studying.
She was a hard worker, and I couldn’t allow myself to fall behind.
Though, I was not likely to be able to train today, so I’ll have to make up for it some other time.
As for Sherry, she turned to Tilura at the mention of ‘playing.’
“Ah, master! Good morning!”
“Milina. Morning.”
After I had my morning tea, I was on my way to the garden in order to make some herbs, when I bumped into Milina.
She greeted me cheerfully and I smiled back.
…Though, she was rubbing her right arm a little… Were her muscles sore?
“Milina. I heard about it from Ms. Lyra. Thank you for concocting the medicine.”
“Yes, I did my best! …Though, my arms hurt a little.”
“Well, you had to mix it for quite a long time…”
So it was sore muscles after all.
Milina chuckled awkwardly as she talked about her arm, and I chuckled back.
“Ah, I have a message from Ms. Helena. She says that she is going to add the medicine into the Ramogi wine. And you will be able to drink it tomorrow.”
“I see. Thank you.”
Ms. Helena sure worked fast.
Well, I suppose everyone in this mansion worked fast?
In any case, tomorrow, I will be able to taste this healthy wine.
And since only the Ramogi wine was safe to drink, she was going to mix it into that one.
Milina had helped with the medicine this time, so perhaps she should taste it with us.
“Alright, that should be enough.”
“Wuff.”
“Ah, Ms. Gelda. Can you give this Ramogi to Ms. Helena? It’s for the wine.”
“Yes, certainly.”
After leaving Milina, I had gone to the garden and immediately started to make herbs.
I made more than usual so that I would have some to give to Ms. Helena as well.
As for the other herbs, they apparently still had some left.
Now that the malicious store was gone, there was no monopolizing of them, I suppose.
It was necessary to make more Ramogi for the wine, and in order to send herbs to other places as well, I would have to start making more than Ractos’s share.
Because according to the contract with the duke, they would sell it in other towns.
Of course, there was a limit to how much I should make, so I don’t faint again. And so I wasn’t sure if I would be able to make enough to go around…
Perhaps I could make some herbs, and then they could be grown in some herb farm? Well, it was something to discuss with Sebastian and Mr. Ekenhart later on.
“Alright, Leo. We should go now.”
“Wuff!”
I returned to my room once and prepared to leave the mansion. Then I called Leo.
She seemed to really be happy about the idea of running outside, as she wagged her tail and barked happily.
I had the herbs to give to Mr. Kalis, and I was sure that I hadn’t forgotten anything.
“Mr. Takumi, are you going out now?”
“Sebastian. Yes, I’m going to go to Ractos.”
“Wuff.”
After leaving my room, I met Sebastian while I was headed to the entrance hall.
Leo was wagging her tail and telling me to hurry up… We’ll be out in a minute, but calm down.
“I’ve heard from His Grace. While some of the residents there might be surprised by Leo, I hope that things will be peaceful.”
“Wuff!”
Sebastian said with a bow, and Leo nodded understandingly.
“Leo was quite popular with the children. But adults…tend to be scared.”
“Yes. I’m sure they will just keep their distance… But some might react in a more extreme way. But we have notified the guards, and so they know that there is no danger…”
“Well, if there is a problem, I will just ride on Leo and leave.”
“I see. Though, I don’t think there would be a problem if you dealt with any who are foolish enough to attack Leo… But I suppose the damage might be too great if Leo went wild in the town.”
“I will be careful.”
“Wuff.”
Leo could easily defeat monsters, and even a master swordsman like Mr. Ekenhart could not beat her.
Even if a group of humans attacked Leo at once, they would not stand a chance.
However, if Leo went all out, she might destroy whole buildings… So I understood why Sebastian was concerned.
Most people would probably just be scared and run away or stare from afar… But if not, then I would just take Leo and leave.
Besides, no one would be fast enough to chase after us.
“Will you take some guards with you? If it is only one or two, they could ride on Leo with you.”
“No, I’m fine. I’m just going to sightsee a little, and so I don’t want to take anyone’s time.”
“It is no trouble, but… Very well.”
If I took a guard with us, it would be that much more work for someone.
And I doubted anything would happen in the town, so there was no need for a guard. Especially when Leo was with me.
But considering that I was going to meet up with Mr. Ekenhart, maybe it wasn’t too bad of an idea… Only, he really wanted to keep it a secret. So this was probably the right decision.
