My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Chapter 122

I Confronted The Man Who Caused The Ruckus

“I just escaped from there, and I am not going back!”

“!”

Apparently, the man had escaped from the prison.

He shouted such things as he raised his hands and then lunged forward with the knife he was carrying.

I unsheathed the sword from my belt and swept the knife to the side.

…I was only able to do this because his movements were slow… And I had studied the way Mr. Ekenhart’s moved…

“What!?”

The man was stunned that his knife had missed. I then unleashed a kick at him.

My foot slammed into the side of his stomach, causing him to roll onto the ground. But even then, he tried to rise up in order to continue the attack. However, I thrust my sword out so that the tip pointed at his face.

“Do you still want to continue? If that’s the case, I might have to push a little deeper with this?”

“…Tsk.”

He must have realized that it was no use, as the man dropped the knife he was holding and the strength seemed to leave him.

So I was able to move like this now…

Not only was I thankful that I had trained so hard, but I was thankful to Mr. Ekenhart for teaching me, and to Leo for helping me train.

“Phew…”

“…! Gah…!”

“Wuff.”

Just as I had sighed and withdrawn my sword, the man snatched the knife off of the ground.

So he was waiting for me to let my guard down… However, before I could even register the danger, Leo jumped over the wall of spectators and landed so that her paw pressed down on the man’s stomach.

After being stepped on like this, the man let out a croak like a toad that was being squashed. And then he stopped moving.

Apparently, Leo had been watching the man and detected his movement.

“Thank you, Leo. You saved me.”

“Wuff. Wuff.”

I thanked Leo and patted her on the head. She was still stepping on the man.

You should be more careful. Leo seemed to say, but it was hard to take her seriously when she was enjoying being petted at the same time.

Just then, applause erupted around us.

It then grew louder as it spread.

They were applauding Leo and I for taking down the man.

I could also hear voices shouting.

“That was amazing, mister!”

“The way that the Silver Wolf swooped in…it was so gallant.”

“Thank you, mister.”

“Leo is so cute.”

Came the various voices.

Most of them were praising us.

“Mr. Takumi!”

As the crowd thanked us, Ms. Claire and Sebasian must have heard the noise, as they flew out of the shop.

Mr. Kalis came over as well.

The clerks carried away the broken table and picked up the herbs from the ground.

“Mr. Takumi, you are too reckless. You should leave such things to the guards.”

“Exactly, Mr. Takumi. You are too important to lose over something like this.”

They were so worried about me, that they almost sounded angry. But even I couldn’t explain why I had stepped forward…

I had done it with a calm mind… Well, it might have been because I saw the herbs on the ground.

Perhaps it was his disregard for them that I found unforgivable.

I might have been more angry than I realized…that wasn’t good.

“I’m sorry… It seems I was angry because he ruined the herbs…”

“It seems?”

“Well, I suppose I can understand your anger towards his actions, but…”

Ms. Claire looked a little puzzled by my words.

The thing was, I didn’t even realize that I was angry. And even now, I wasn’t sure that I was.

“But more importantly, what should we do with him?”

Ms. Claire asked as she looked towards the man who Leo was holding down.

We could just call the guards and have him arrested again. But it could be very troublesome if he escapes again…

“Tsk.”

While the man seemed to be in pain under all that weight, he still glared and clicked his tongue at us.

He clearly wasn’t sorry… Also, Leo? Are you putting less pressure on him than it looks?

If Leo put all of her weight down, she could easily crush a human to death.

There were children here, and I did not want them to see a man get squished, while blood and other things flew in the air… So perhaps Leo was being extra careful.

“Indeed…”

“What should we do, Sebastian?”

Sebastian thought for a moment and then walked towards the man without answering Ms. Claire’s question. Then he said to the man,

“Did you know that this store belongs to the duke?”

“Ah? I don’t know nothing.”

“So why did you choose this place?”

An interrogation?

And so we all watched as Sebastian questioned the man.

Though, Leo couldn’t see too well, as he was under her foot.

Mr. Kalis was looking at the fallen man with an expression of pity… Why?

“I wanted money… Damn it. I should have gone somewhere else!”

“I see… You did all of this just for some money.”

Sebastian then mused over those words for a moment.

“You have defied the duke on his lands. Of course…he has the right to judge you.”

“And so what! Why are you telling me this!”

The man did not understand why Sebastian was saying this, and he shouted angrily.

Think hard… Defy the duke on his lands… I didn’t know much about the laws of this country, but it seemed obvious to me.

“It was an attack on his house…threats and violence against his store… Even the death penalty might not be enough for you…”

“What!?”

The man went pale and then became speechless when he heard Sebastian’s words.

After hearing all of this, he finally understood the situation that he was in.

However, Sebastian looked like he was enjoying this…his voice was extra low and threatening. And yet he also sounded calm, which made it all the more frightening.

Perhaps Mr. Kalis knew what was going to happen, and that was why he pitied the man?

“…Now do you understand the position you’re in? Ah, there is no use trying to run away. You are being held down by the great Leo. A Silver Fenrir… She will not allow you to leave.”

“…So it’s a Silver Fenrir…”

“Grrrrrr…”
