My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World-Chapter 867
Chapter 867
I was surrounded by the old people of the village
“Well, we will be staying here for some time. So I look forward to seeing more of the village.”
“Mmm. There is not much to see, but please enjoy your stay. Delia, please look after them.” ƒreewebɳovel.com
“Yes. I will show them around!”
We drank tea and chatted for a little longer. And then it was time to take my leave.
“Perhaps I really am getting old. I did feel something special… But I don’t know. I really should let my son take over…”
The chief muttered just as I was leaving, but I pretended that I didn’t hear.
It was likely not about me anyway…
“Ah, thank you.”
“It’s fine. Don’t be modest. It’s rare to have young people like you visit this village.”
After leaving the chief’s house, we met up with Phillip, Nicholas and Mr. Kanat. And then, as if they had been waiting, the old men and women came out and surrounded us in the center of the village.
One of the old men handed me a basket full of produce.
Aside from a well, there was a long table and chairs in the plaza, and people used it to rest and talk.
“People are talking about how Delia brought a young man. She is that age, after all…”
“Hey, grandmother, don’t say such strange things. It’s just a rumor… Mr. Kanat already told everyone about Mr. Takumi…”
“Haha. I just came here to thank Ms. Delia for helping me in Ractos. Also, I wanted to visit this village…”
As there was little excitement here, news of our arrival had already spread.
Well, most of the talk was about me and Ms. Delia…
“Normally, it’s just merchants who come through here. Also people who buy wood.”
“Since they come regularly, they are well-known here. And most are on the older side. So we don’t get people like you.”
“I see.”
“Oh, on close inspection, you are not bad looking.”
“What are you saying? Are you trying to scare him away, old woman?”
“How rude! Fifty years ago, I was so beautiful that Mr. Takumi would have fallen for me in an instant!”
“I’ve known you for a long time, but I don’t remember you being like that ever?”
“Perhaps it was because you were too busy crying after being turned down by every woman you approached!”
“Ahaha…well…”
The old men and women started talking about something else, and my mind started to wander.
No, no. I should focus when talking to others. This was a bad habit.
In any case, fifty years… I suppose she would be about the same age as me now.
Though, I was not born at that time, and would not be in this world.
Regardless, I chuckled as the old friends argued.
The others watched as if this kind of thing happened all of the time.
“Hah… I’m a little tired.”
“Indeed. I am usually not surrounded by so many people.”
“Me too… People always surround Leo, not me.”
“I’m sorry, I didn’t think that they would all come out like this. I think all the elders of the village are here.”
By the time that the sun started to set, we finally escaped the group of old folks, and we were able to return to our house and rest.
