The fenrir race begins
“Well then… What is this atmosphere?”
“Oh, the fenrirs are also excited!”
“Wou…”
“Grrr…”
“Gau…”
“Grau…”
They were all growling as if they were determined to win… Oh, was this a race? Like a dog race?
“…Wou?”
“Ah, fine. Uh, just don’t do anything dangerous, alright? Okay. Now, go!”“Grau!”
“Gurr!”
“Gau!”
“Gaau!”
And like that, they all started to run at once.
As expected, Leo took the lead immediately.
But the fenrirs were also following close behind. It was hard to see them as the same fenrirs who had been lying on their backs and being petted just a moment ago.
“Hey, wait. Leo! And you fenrirs too! Slow down a little!”
“Wou?”
They were running so fast that it was difficult to breathe.
If this continues, it might get dangerous!
Claire and the others who were inside of the carriage would be fine, but Liza and I were in the driver’s seat. And Ms. Lyra and Ms. Gelda were also in a similar position.
It was like being blasted from the front by a giant fan.
“Hah…! Hah…! Leo, you might be fine, but think of us for a second… It is very uncomfortable…”
“Wuff!? Wou…”
Finally realizing what was happening, Leo slowed down and barked apologetically.
As it had become like a race…so she had probably gotten carried away.
Once Leo slowed down, the other fenrirs did as well. That was good… If they had kept running, then I would have to ask Leo to go and stop them.
“Hah… I couldn’t breathe!”
“See? Even Liza had trouble. I understand that you got excited, but you can’t run too fast.”
“Wou… Wou-wou… Wou.”
Leo apologized, and I was sure that she would not do it again.
However, she also said something else… About how it was different when we rode on her back.
“…Now that I think about it, I never had trouble breathing while riding Leo. It’s not like we don’t feel the wind, and still have to hold on tightly…”
“Yes, it’s fine when we’re riding on mama.”
While she was running faster than a horse now, it was still slower than when she ran to Range village.
Liza also seemed to think this was odd, and she tilted her head and ears to the side.
“Leo. Is it that…you are doing something while we are riding on your back?”
“Wuff? Wou!”
Leo turned her head while still running and barked.
She sounded quite confident, as if she wanted me to praise her.
“I see… So, what is different?”
“Wou. Wou-wuff. Wuff-wou!”
“I see…”
According to Leo, she was making a thin wall in front of her to decrease the amount of wind resistance.
That was why the wind that hit us from the front was not as strong, and so we had no trouble when riding on her.
However, since we were riding on the carriage, there was too much distance between us, and so the wall was not as effective.
Was this magic that all Silver Fenrirs could use? Well, considering how fast Rahle and the fenrirs were, it would not be surprising if they could do it as well.
Perhaps it was something monsters could do.
If humans could use it, it would certainly make things more convenient when riding horses.
“In any case, it is clearly different when riding on a carriage. But as long as you are careful it should be fine. Hmm…I think you can go a little faster. Try raising the speed slowly.”
“Wou!”
“Woah! So fast!”
With horses, they had less energy, and the carriage, baggage and passengers affected their speed. But with Leo and the fenrir, there was an entirely different problem.
Speed really wasn’t everything…
