My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Chapter 843

The guards still stuck out a little

“That being said, we still do draw some attention. After all, we are dressed differently from the town guards…”

Nicholas muttered as he looked around.

They were both armed and wearing leather armor.

When walking down the streets, it was rare to see someone carrying a sword.

“Indeed. The duke’s guards could not be walking around with the same equipment as the town guards.”

“Is that so?”

“The most obvious difference is the quality. They have armor and weapons that are mass produced. And while I am not saying they are of terrible quality, they are still cheap.”

“While those of us who protect the duke or the mansion have custom equipment that fits us. It is very important, as the smallest difference could obstruct our movement.”

I suppose they had to look good for nobles as well?

“Well, they might look at us as travelers that have good equipment…”

“I see. Regardless, we do not stick out as much when Leo is around.”

“Yes. Even more so when Lady Claire is with us, as well as Sebastian and the maids.”

With fewer people around, it made the job of guarding a lot easier.

Regardless, we enjoyed the different atmosphere, and talked as we returned to our horses and continued our journey to Bleiyu village.

Considering how things are now, we should not have any trouble pretending to be friends once we arrive…

On the way there, I got used to riding quite a bit, and was able to talk to Phillip while on the horse.

After all, I nearly bit my tongue right after we left the mansion… And had not been able to talk at all.

“By the way, Phillip.”

“What is it, Mr. Takumi?”

“Previously, when you fought the orcs in the fenrir forest… The way you moved. Was that from your training? The way you attacked to slow them down, a little by little.”

“Ah, that. Half is from training. Half is something I figured out on my own, I suppose.”

While riding, watching the scenery could be nice, but there was not a whole lot to see. And so I decided to talk to him.

I was interested in the way that he fought.

When we fought in pairs against the orcs, Phillip moved with precision, which was easy to understand. And instead of targeting the orc’s vitals,he hit the legs and ankles.

Mr. Ekenhart had taught me to end fights quickly, and that it was more effective to target vitals as much as possible. So Phillip’s style had been refreshing.

Now that I thought about it, fighting while thinking about how to weaken the enemy made sense as well.

…Though, I suppose it also looked like you were toying with them. So it was not always recommended. But it could be effective when fighting an enemy that was stronger than you.

Besides, it had been helpful when fighting as a pair.

“In the end, it is all about experience. As you fight with monsters and continue to train, you will think of different ways to fight. That is all.”

“I see. Yes, if you have used a sword for a long time, you will be able to use it in many different ways.
