My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Chapter 80

The others were very worried about me

I felt like I was slowly floating upwards.

What happened to me again?

It was as if I was waking from a dream.

Had I been sleeping then?

…I don’t know… I could feel my body now.

And I could think.

Uhh…?

I will try to move my arms and legs.

Hmm. They move fine… But I seem to be on my side. 

I suppose that I was sleeping then.

“…Hmm.”

I opened my eyes.

Yes. I could see.

This… It was familiar. The room that I had been assigned to me in the mansion.

In order to change my view, I turned my head to the side.

“Huh? Ms. Claire?”

Ms. Claire was in front of me.

And not just her.

Sebastian, Ms. Lyra, Ms. Gelda. Leo and the fenrir were there as well.

“Mr. Takumi!?”

“Wuff!?”

“You are awake, Mr. Takumi!”

Once I saw that they were all there, Ms. Claire, Leo, and Sebastian shouted at me.

Hmm? Why were they all so surprised?

Also, why were they inside of my room?

“Everyone. What happened?”

“Mr. Takumi. You do not remember?”

“You fainted in the drawing room.”

The drawing room… Now that I thought about it, I remember talking with Ms. Claire.

Yes. It was right after we returned from the forest.

I am starting to remember different things now.

I don’t know why, but my vision had suddenly become white and I lost consciousness.

And I had been sleeping here because someone must have carried me.

“…Good morning.”

“Ha…really, Mr. Takumi… Good morning. You seemed to have slept well.”

“You gave us a terrible fright, Mr. Takumi.”

“Wuff-wuff!”

Ms. Claire and Sebastian sounded a little exasperated as they answered.

Even Leo was sighing visibly… Shouldn’t you say good morning, Leo?

Thinking this, I said good morning to Tilura, Ms. Lyra, Ms. Gelda, and the fenrir as well.

It was what you were supposed to do when waking up.

“Mr. Takumi. Can you get up?”

“Yes.”

As Ms. Claire asked this, I sat up and then got out of my bed.

“You seem to be fine.”

Sebastian said with relief as he saw me get to my feet.

Yes, I didn’t think anything was wrong. It was the same old feeling after a good night’s sleep.

“Wuff.”

“There, there.”

As Leo rubbed her face into me, I patted her on the head.

I suppose she really was worried?

“Mr. Takumi. Perhaps we should go to the drawing room? Then we can tell you about how you fainted.”

“Very well.”

Indeed, this was not the place to start having a conversation.

There were no chairs, and so you would have to stand or sit on the floor.

And that might be fine for Leo or the fenrir, but Ms. Claire and Tilura were the daughters of a duke, and Sebastian was not likely to permit something so ill-mannered.

Ms. Lyra and Ms Gelda left first, and said they would prepare the drawing room.

Ms. Claire gave me a concerned look, and then said that she would be waiting for me, and then she took Tilura and left the room.

Apparently, Sebastian would come with me and Leo.

I didn’t know why, but I had fainted.

So he probably wanted to make sure that I could walk properly.

And so I quickly got ready and then headed to the drawing room with Leo and Sebastian.

Sebastian knocked on the door and Ms. Claire gave him permission to enter.

Inside, Ms. Claire and Tilura were sitting. The fenrir was on Tilura’s lap.

They had clearly bonded.

Ms. Lyra and Ms. Gelda waited by the door, and Sebastian moved to stand next to Ms. Claire.

Leo and I went to the table and then Ms. Lyra poured me a cup of tea.

“So, Mr. Takumi. Do you remember what happened right before you fainted?”

Asked Ms. Claire after I had taken a sip of the tea.

Hmm. Before I fainted…

“I know that after we returned from the forest, I came to this drawing room.”

“That’s right. And you and Leo were relaxing. But what about after that?”

After that?

Right, Ms. Claire came to see us.

“Ms. Claire and Tilura came here…and we were talking.”

“So you do remember. It was when we were speaking that you fainted.”

“…I see.”

But what had we been talking about… I think it was…about Weed Cultivation.

That’s right, I was going to tell Ms. Claire about my research with it. And then my vision suddenly turned white.

Thinking about it now, the sensation of everything going white returned for a second, and I shuddered.

“Are you alright? You look a little pale.”

“…Yes, I’m fine. I just remember the moment before I fell…”

“The moment before… What did it feel like? Ah, um…you do not have to say it if you don’t want to think about it.”

Ms. Claire asked as she looked at my face worriedly. But she also realized that I might not want to talk about it.

While it wasn’t something that I wanted to remember, they were all so worried about me, and so I thought that I should tell them.

Besides, I was getting used to thinking about it… Yes, it was nothing.

“I’m fine. I can talk about it.”

“Wuff?”

“Thanks for your concern, Leo. I really am fine.”

Leo was staring at me from the side. She even barked questioningly, but I was fine.

I patted her on the head with gratitude.

“If you say so, Mr. Takumi…”

“Yes. Uh… When it happened, my vision suddenly turned white.”

“White… And you couldn’t see anything?”

“Nothing but white. But I could still hear. I remember hearing the voices of Leo, Ms. Claire and Tilura calling to me.”

“It must have been very frightening…to not be able to see.”

Ms. Claire and Tilura seemed to be imagining the moment, and they looked pale.

I didn’t know what had caused it, but it was out of the ordinary. Being suddenly robbed of your vision was indeed a frightening thing.
