My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Having water splashed on me was fate

“Now…the last part is her face.”

“…Yes.”

“Face…”

Unlike before, I spoke in a serious voice.

Because you had to be extra careful when it came to the face area.

If the soap got in her eyes or nose, it could cause pain or discomfort for Leo.

A little bit could not be helped, but I wanted to avoid it as much as possible.

“As for the face… Leo?”

“Ah, so that’s how you use that big bucket.”

I called Leo and gestured towards the bucket that was filled with water.

Leo finally opened her mouth and barked like she usually did. And then she moved to the bucket and put her face in it.

“Now, we will use soap like with the rest of her body… But be careful that it doesn’t go into her eyes or nose. Do it slowly.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Certainly. Excuse me, good Leo.”

“Also, while it is fine now, you should avoid using cold water during winter. It would be best to heat the water first.”

Leo closed her eyes and mouth tightly again and let out a resigned sigh. And then the two hesitantly began to wash her.

For this part, Tilura and Liza just watched.

The climate around the mansion was quite warm, so it was fine now. But it would be much colder during the winter… And I didn’t want them to wash Leo with cold water.

…Hmm? Well, I didn’t actually know if there was a winter season here.

Now that I thought about it, I hadn’t asked about the climate… And considering that I’ll be growing fields, I should ask about it…

“While it’s easier than the stomach and back, you also have to be more attentive…”

“Indeed. I wouldn’t want soap in my eyes or nose either. And Leo would be especially sensitive.”

“Well, Leo can bear a little discomfort. Right, Leo?”

“…”

“…It doesn’t seem like she agrees.”

“Haha. Just a coincidence.”

After that, while Leo made weird noises through her nostril, we finished washing her face.

“Alright, that’s it, Leo.”

And then Leo dunked her head into the bucket again and washed her face.

“Good Leo really does not like hot water…”

“Yes. She is perfectly fine when swimming in river water…”

“Sherry isn’t like that. She seems to enjoy her baths.”

“Wuff!?”

“Gah!”

Leo had pulled her face out of the water and turned towards us in surprise.

Obviously, since she was wet, a great amount of water rained down on me.

I was close by, so it couldn’t be helped, but I wished she was a little more careful… It caught me right in the face…even though I knew I would get wet.

As Ms. Claire was behind me, I acted as a shield to protect her.

“Leo. That’s what happens when you raise your face so suddenly. A little is fine, but I was practically drenched from that…”

“Wuff…”

Leo looked at me apologetically.

Well, she was being careful in her own way, and refrained from shaking her body.

“Mr. Takumi. Are you alright?”

“Yes, I’m fine. Though, a little cold…”

“We do not want you to get sick! Now, come over here and get warm.”

“Uh, but…I’m still wearing clothes…”

“Nevermind that!”

I chuckled and reassured Ms. Claire that I was fine, but Ms. Lyra reacted strongly.

I supposed it was because I said it was cold. But it wasn’t bad enough to get sick or anything…

However, Ms. Lyra pulled me over to the bathtub and urged me to get inside.

It was awkward to go in while still clothed, but she pushed me in anyway.
