My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

The fenrirs could use powerful magic

“Ga-gau…?”

“Gau…”

After Ms. Claire had asked her question, Fen and Riruru were about to go back to the other side of the river. But as they dipped their paws in the water, they seemed to hesitate.

“…Now that I think about it, they had almost drowned…”

“Indeed. What should we do?”

“Wuff…”

“Leo?”

I suppose they thought about how they would look like they were drowning while crossing… And they were not enthusiastic about it.

As Ms. Claire and I wondered what to do, Leo let out a sigh and walked forward while Liza was on her back.

“Wou! Gau-gau!”

“Kyaun!? Gau-gau!”

“Kyan? Gau…”

“Uhh…it seems like she is telling them to use magic.”

“Magic? Is there magic that can make them swim better or fly?”

While Ms. Claire and I were puzzled, the answer came soon enough.

“Uuu… Gau!!”

“Grrr… Grau!”

Fen and Riruru growled as they charged the power in their bodies. And they barked loudly!

I was starting to be able to detect magic energy…

“Woah. That’s amazing…”

“That is… I suppose they can use powerful magic…”

“So fenrirs can use ice magic… Sherry did use it before. But this is what the adults can do.”

“How interesting…”

Fen and Riruru had activated the magic together.

From their paws, the ground started to freeze, and it continued through the river.

And like that, the water froze until it reached the other side, creating a bridge.

But the current had not stopped, so it likely just freezed part of the surface.

Ms. Claire and I gasped in admiration.

As did Sebastian and Mr. Ekenhart, who were watching from behind.

Even Liza and Tilura were raising their hands with joy.

“Gau…”

“Gau-gau…”

Fen and Riruru were also happy at their success in freezing the water.

And then the two started to cross the icy bridge.

…While it was impressive, would it really…

“Gau!? Gau…gau…”

“Kyaun!”

As it was made of ice, they couldn’t help but slip on it.

Had they ran, they would have likely fallen into the river immediately.

But unlike Fen, Riruru seemed to enjoy it. And she was sliding on the ice as if wearing skates.

Of course, she went much faster than Fen, who was walking slowly.

I suppose she was just better at adapting.

“Kyau… Gau? Gau…”

Though she was about the size of a horse, Riruru slid across and soon reached the other side. She looked a little disappointed that it was over. Then she turned around and seemed to laugh as she watched Fen.

Upon seeing this, Fen must have felt provoked, as he started to run.

“Ah…that’s not a good idea…!”

“Gau! Ga!? Kyan…!”

“I knew it…”

“Wuff…”

“He slid off… Well, he looked like he was drowning last time too. So I’m sure he is fine…”

I had called out, but it was too late.

The moment he started to dash on the ice, his paws slipped and he lost his balance beautifully.

And though he frantically flailed around, it only made things worse. And without being able to find his balance, he slid over the edge and into the water.

At the same time, Leo sighed and Ms. Claire laughed.

Even Sherry looked exasperated…

But there was nothing that we could do but watch. And after some time, he finally reached the other side of the river.

And though he was panting loudly, he had been doing something like an ordinary doggy paddle near the end. So perhaps with a little more practice, he would be able to swim normally.

Maybe next time we come here, I could ask Leo to give them and Sherry some swimming lessons…
