My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Chapter 697

We saw them off

“I have to start thinking about my grandchildren. Haha! Farewell!”

“Safe travels, Lord Ekenhart!”

The last thing Mr. Ekenhart did before leaving, was to tease Claire…

The mention of grandchildren had made her very red in the face.

He looked like a villain, laughing as he rode away.

“Well, we will be going too, Takumi.”

“Mr. Euto. Goodbye.”

After Mr. Ekenhart’s departure, it was Mr. Euto.

There were forests and mountains in the way, and so if you did not go through Ractos, then you would have to go around, so a normal journey back to the capital would take a long time anyway.

But according to what I heard yesterday, they would go through mountains and forests in order to arrive sooner. I felt bad for Ms. Lugretta… But with the Gift and magic, it should not be too bad for them.

“I was glad to meet someone from my old home after so long, Takumi.”

“As was I. Though, I never expected that someone from there would be a king here…”

As I had plenty of company with Leo and the others, I was not lonely. But it made me feel good, just knowing that there were others like me.

There was a sense of comfort with having something that I can share past memories with.

“While I’m sure you’ll be fine…be careful. I’ll be waiting for the day we meet again.”

“I’ll enjoy my journey and return eventually. Of course, I’ll be careful. Ah, by the way…”

“Hmm?”

As we laughed and shook hands, Mr. Euto seemed to suddenly remember something.

Had he forgotten to tell me something?

“Since Hart will be here at the same time, I’ll visit once your house is completed.”

“…Uh, are you sure?”

Somehow, I imagined that his journey would take longer than that…

“I’ll manage. I intend to take shortcuts, even if Lugretta doesn’t like it.”

“Hah… I’m used to it now, but I wish Your Excellency would learn to walk on proper roads…”

“Ahaha! But it’s so fun!”

“Climbing cliffs is not fun…”

Ms. Lugretta must have overheard us, as she now joined the conversation with a sigh.

It was one thing if you could walk, even when there wasn’t a path. But a cliff…I could not do that. His Gift and magic really were amazing.

“Well, see you later then, Takumi!”

“Farewell, Mr. Takumi, Lady Claire. And you people of Range village…”

“Yes. You two be careful!”

“Wou!”

Mr. Euto ran energetically, while Ms. Lugretta followed him on horseback.

“Well, I think things will be a lot quieter now?”

“Indeed. While I will not say they are loud…they did like to make a scene. Though, even you would join them in teasing me, Mr. Takumi.”

“Haha. Well, your reactions were cute, so I couldn’t help it.”

“Cute!? …Oh, you cannot fool me with such words!”

She said as she glared at me. I was no good at lying. Though, I also wondered if she wasn’t used to it by now. Regardless, the part about her being cute was true

“Wuff! Wuff! Kyan!”

“Oh, I thought it was quiet until you showed up.”

“Wuff! Wuff!”

“Papa!”

“Oh! Haha. And now Leo and Liza are here to make things even less quiet.”

“Hehe… Everyone likes you, Mr. Takumi.”

I had heard something barking around my feet, and saw that it was the little Maltese dog. It wanted to be picked up.

As I carried and petted it, Leo sat down next to me, and then Liza came charging, and I nearly dropped the dog.

But after patting them both on the head, Leo and Liza seemed to be satisfied, and they ran off to the other children… How energetic.

The Maltese was still relaxed in my arms… It really did remind me of the old Leo…
