My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Breakfast was not in the dining hall

---

“I’m very sorry. Ah…”

“No, I don’t mind… Is something the matter?”

“Uh, no… It’s nothing. I prepared the necessary things for the morning. Well then…”

“Yes, thank you.”

“Sister Lyra, was she in pain? Was it because she slept with me?”

“Uh…No. It’s not your fault, Liza. She wasn’t in pain or anything. It’s fine.”

“Really?”

“Aye. She should be fine by the time we are ready to go downstairs.”

When our eyes met, she suddenly became embarrassed. I suppose she remembered what happened in the bathing room.

Regardless, I assured Liza that she was fine, and would be back to normal soon.

“Mr. Takumi, are you awake?”

“I am. You can come in.”

“Yes, excuse me!”

Moments later, there was a knock on the door, and I heard Tilura’s voice.

She sounded as cheerful as always.

“Good morning.”

“Morning, Tilura.”

“Good morning, sister Tilura!”

“Wuff!”

But I thought Tilura would go to Rahle today. I wonder what happened?

We had gone with her yesterday, and she seemed to have become very used to being around Rahle…

“Aren’t you going to meet Rahle today?”

“Oh, I already did! In fact, I came to call you because we’re not eating breakfast in the dining hall this morning!

“We’re not? Then where will we be eating?”

“Hehe. That’s a surprise! Liza, let’s go and wash up!”

“Yes! I’ll be going, papa and mama!”

“Go along then.”

“Wuff!”

Mr. Ekenhart would be leaving tomorrow. So I wasn’t sure what reason they had to eat anywhere else today.

Well, I would find out soon enough, so I just had to get ready…

“I see… It’s the back garden then…”

“Yes. Like this, I can eat with Rahle!”

After I was prepared, Tilura took me to the garden behind the mansion.

Normally, we would train with swords here Leo would run around.

A table that was large enough for ten people had been set out, and chairs prepared.

Ms. Claire and Mr. Ekenhart were already sitting, and the food had been served.

“Good morning, Mr. Takumi.”

“Good morning. You too, Mr. Ekenhart.”

“…Mmm.”

“Are you feeling alright?”

“Tilura woke me up… Well, that is fine. But that wine yesterday… I drank too much.”

“Really, father… While I’m not looking…”

“We got to talking quite a lot last night. I probably should have said something as well.”

“Ah…a hangover….”

After greeting Ms. Claire, I took a seat at the table.

While it was the same seating as always, Rahle was next to Tilura this time.

As for Mr. Ekenhart, he looked a little pale.

Apparently, it was because of all the wine he had last night.

Back when I had first started drinking, I had suffered hangovers as well… It had been very bad.

And it was not a good enough reason to rest from work, so I just had to take medicine and go.

Ms. Claire sighed and glared at her father. Well…it wasn’t something that could be said in front of her…

“Well, leaving that aside… Eating outside sometimes is rather nice. Even though we did plenty of that in the forest.”

“Indeed. It is quite refreshing. Though, this back garden is a little plain…”

“It had to accommodate Leo and Rahle… If we leave the garden, then we will be much farther away from the mansion…”

It was kind of like having a picnic.

Unlike in the forest, we were not surrounded by tall trees, so it was very open.

But as Ms. Claire said, there were no other plants or flowers, so there was not much to look at.

If there were such things, they would get in the way. Leo and Rahle would probably end up stepping all over them.
