My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World-Chapter 43

Leo’s fur glistened after getting out of the bath

After taking my time and thoroughly warming up in the hot water, I got out and dried myself with a towel before putting on my clothes and stepping out of the changing room.

As always, Ms. Lyra was waiting right outside of the door. And since she told me that Ms. Claire and Tilura were in the drawing room, I decided to go there.

“Is Leo over there as well?”

“Yes. She is with the ladies.”

In fact, yesterday, I had gone from my room to the bath, and then returned on my own. So I knew where it was within the mansion.

And so I didn’t need Ms. Lyra to guide me.

She seemed a little agitated as she said, ‘I’ll go put on some tea,’ and then headed to the kitchens.

“…Perhaps she had wanted to guide me?”

A lot of the servants here seemed a little eccentric.

I thought of such things as I walked through the mansion, and I reached the drawing room in no time.

I knocked lightly on the door and said,

“It’s Takumi. I’ve finished my bath.”

“Come in.”

Ms. Lyra opened the door.

Huh? Didn’t she go to the kitchens?

I had seen her trudging away just a moment ago…

Right next to her, Ms. Gelda stood with a tray with a tea pot and cups.

I…suppose I wasn’t as used to navigating through this mansion as I thought… I must have taken a long route when coming here… Yes, that’s it…

“Mr. Takumi. You did a wonderful job washing Leo. It must have been very tiring to do it by yourself?”

Said Ms. Claire as I stepped into the room, still surprised about Ms. Lyra’s presence.

“Well, Leo is rather large. And she doesn’t very much like baths. That was the difficult part.”

“Indeed. Perhaps I should assign some of the maids to do it from now on? It will be much easier with several people doing it.”

“Hmm… I think that for the time being, I can manage it. Besides, I wouldn’t want to push any difficult work onto them. And I think that it’s best that I am there until Leo gets more accustomed to it.”

“I doubt the maids would mind… But, that’s true. It’s probably better for you to do it until she gets used to it.”

“We are ready to wash the great Leo whenever you need. So please ask if you require assistance!”

For some reason, Ms. Lyra was very enthusiastic.

Could it be that Ms. Lyra… Wanted to touch Leo’s fluffy fur so bad?

Well, Tilura had become addicted to it, and so it was no wonder that others would as well.

“Very well. I will leave it to you when Leo is ready. But for now, there is a possibility that Leo might try and resist. And that could be dangerous now that she’s so big.”

“The great Leo might resist…”

Ms. Gelda must have imagined Leo in a rage, as she suddenly became very pale.

Indeed, if that did happen, the frail Ms. Gelda could be thrown into the air quite easily.

Of course, Leo was nice and wouldn’t do such a thing.

However, Ms. Gelda was clearly still scared of Leo.

That too would take time to resolve.

“Mr. Takumi! Can I go with them when the time comes?”

Apparently, Tilura really wanted to take a bath with Leo.

And Leo was also very fond of Tilura.

“Yes, it should be fine if you’re with the maids. Is that fine, Ms. Claire?”

“Yes. Tilura, you may go if you’re with the maids.”

“Yay!”

“Wou…”

While Tilura was so overjoyed that she threw her arms around Leo, the fact that we had been talking about baths for awhile now had drained Leo of her usual energy.

But as Tilura held onto Leo, she seemed to realize something as she buried her face in the fur and then raised her head.

“Mr. Takumi. Leo’s fur feels so good!”

“Hahaha. I noticed it while bathing her, but Leo’s fur was actually quite dirty. But since I brushed her thoroughly and got rid of the dirt and dust, she should be much fluffier than before.”

“It’s so soft! I didn’t know that you were this fluffy, Leo! It’s amazing!”

“Wuff!”

“Yes, her silver coat is shining more than when we first met. This must be the true appearance of a Silver Fenrir…”

Tilura seemed very moved as she enjoyed burying her face in Leo’s fur.

And Leo rubbed her face against Tilura’s.

Ms. Claire was also looking at Leo and seemed to be very impressed.

“Yes, Leo’s silver fur is very pretty.”

“Indeed.”

And I felt the same.

Leo had originally been a Maltese, and had white fur.

She had pretty fur back then as well, but now it was silver, and due to her great size, there was something almost divine about her.

Actually, her fur seemed to have also grown longer. But I hadn’t noticed it before because the change in size had been so dramatic.

“Silver Fenrir… After seeing the luster of the silver fur, the legends of how proud and unyielding they are sound so much more convincing.”

“Indeed, Lady Claire. While I have also read the texts, I did not know that a Silver Fenrir’s coat shone to this degree… And she had already looked so impressive before…”

“Yes… I thought that the legends must be exaggerating, but now I feel that they must be true.”

“I agree.”

“…Sebastian. If everything in the legend is true, then perhaps that forest…”

“…Yes, if you believe it all, it might be the case.”

Sebastian and Ms. Claire were talking together as they gazed at Leo’s fur.

It seemed to be about some Silver Fenrir legend, but as I had never heard the legend before, I couldn’t really understand what they meant.

Perhaps I should ask? But just as I was about to address Ms. Claire, she turned to look at me.

“Mr. Takumi. It’s about the forest where I first met you.”

“Ah, yes. The forest where you searched for the Ramogi. What about it?”

“There is a legend that the founder of the Liebert house used to go there.”
