We saw the fenrirs off
“Well, we can talk about that another time. I think the fenrirs will be wanting to return to the forest soon. Or it will get dark again.”
“…Indeed. Now that I think about it, we have been talking for some time.”
“Yes. Th-thank you, Lyra.”
“Not at all.”
While we were absorbed in the conversation, we were standing outside of the house.
Thankfully, Claire had fully recovered now, but Leo and Tilura looked bored. Also, the fenrirs were sitting nearby and waiting.
We could talk after the fenrirs left.
Also, since I rested yesterday, I wanted to get some sword training done.
Ms. Lyra had even brought us some tea, as if she knew we would be thirsty.“Well, now that we have quenched our thirst, it is time to say our farewells to the fenrirs. Mr. Takumi…let us talk later.”
“I will join you.”
“Uh, yes. Of course.”
They were more interested in it than I expected.
Well, regardless of what would be decided, it was not bad to make suggestions.
Though, by the looks of things, I might not have much time to train…
“Grrr. Guru. Gurrr…”
“Uh, thank you. For the delicious food and time spent with the Silver Fenrir. The hospitality made us feel that we are welcomed by the humans. That’s what he said.”
“We are also very happy to have been able to spend time with fenrirs. Thank you.”
“Gau?”
“Kyu.”
“Gaauu!”
“Kyau!”
We were now standing in a line in front of the gate.
As always, Liza was very good at interpreting for the fenrirs… It was an interesting sight, seeing Claire and Feri bowing to each other.
Tilura was holding Sherry, who was also saying goodbye to her parents.
Well, they would probably be back for food, soon enough.
“…Grrr. Guru?”
“Sister Claire. He’s asking if he can come back for more hamburgers.”
“Thank you, Liza. Yes. Come whenever you like. You are very welcome here.”
“He really does like them…just like Leo.”
“Wuff. Wou-wou!”
“Ahaha. Thank you.”
Feri was wagging his tail happily.
Well, there was no harm in him coming back. And the people of the mansion were used to being around fenrirs now.
And Liza would enjoy making them again.
“So…uh…what are they doing?”
“I don’t know…”
The fenrirs had turned to the forest as if they were going to leave, but then they stopped with serious expression. It was almost like they were waiting for something.
“Guur?”
“He wants someone to do the signal.”
“Signal? Oh…they want to race again.”
“Wou. Wuff-wuff.”
“Well, I guess they couldn’t run their fastest while pulling the carriage…”
“Then I will do it…”
“Guur.”
They sure had a lot of energy…
“…Go!”
Sebastian stepped forward in front of the row of fenrirs, and after raising his arm, lowered it while shouting the word.
“Kya!”
“Woah!”
“Ahh!”
There was a sudden gust of wind, and Claire, Tilura and Liza raised their voices in surprise.
And when the wind died down, the fenrirs were already far into the distance…
Was Sebastian alright?
“…Sebastian?”
“I had a feeling this might happen… I should have stood more carefully.”
“Are you alright?”
“While I’m a little dirty, I am fine.”
While I didn’t think the fenrirs had rammed into him, Sebastian had still fallen onto the ground.
Still, he got up and brushed the dirt off. He did not appear to be injured.
If I were ever in the same position, I would be sure to spread my feet so that I was firmly planted on the ground…
