My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World-Chapter 1279
Johanna was very interested in us
“Hehe. I’ll be relying on you, Johanna.”
“Yes!”
“I’ll be relying on you too… But mostly as a guard, of course.”
“Yes, leave it to me. Though, between work, I would like to pet Leo and the fenrirs and watch you two… Recently, seeing you two get closer has been something I look forward to.”
Even though she was serious about her job, it was clear that she had other desires as well.
“Oh, Johanna. Hehe. Getting closer? I don’t know what you’re talking about…”
“Uh, Claire? I think the real problem is that she is observing…well…watching…”
“Hehe…”
It was no use. She was not listening to me.
“Hah… Maybe I should have been in a different carriage. I miss my husband already…”
“Kyau…”
Hermine and Sherry sighed. It seemed that they did not enjoy the atmosphere in this carriage.
I wanted to apologize to them for making things so awkward.
As the carriage continued on, Sherry looked like she wanted to move off of Claire’s lap…
…Also, I had no idea that Hermine was married…
—
“Thank you, Mr. Takumi.”
“It’s no problem at all. I am able to hold Claire’s hand like this, which is quite a reward.”
“Oh, Mr. Takumi. Hehe. I feel the same.”
We arrived in Ractos and stepped out of the carriage at the gate.
I got out first and extended my hand to help Claire get out. Our hands squeezed tightly…it wasn’t because we were nervous or anything.
“Ehem! You always start when we aren’t looking… Lady Claire, Mr. Takumi. Johanna and I will be stuck in here forever if you do not move.”
“Ah, I’m sorry.”
Hermine coughed from inside of the carriage.
And I pulled Claire by the hand so she would not be blocking the entrance, and then I apologized.
I was well aware that Claire and I had been like this the whole journey.
And yet, I could not stop it… I was even stroking Claire’s hair at one point.
While Johanna was watching us with a smile, it must have been a terrible time for Hermine.
After all, we were like that for nearly an hour.
“We got scolded…”
“Haha. We’ll have to be careful then.”
We chuckled together. Neither of us sounded very sorry about it.
“…Still, you have not let go of each other’s hands. It showed how much you get along. Which is a good thing. I’m a little jealous…”
Hermine said with a sigh.
Sorry. Once connected, it was difficult to let go…
Hermine also muttered something about being jealous… Were things not going well with her husband?
Perhaps she was thinking about when she was young.
“Hohoho. If only His Grace could see you two now. He would be overjoyed.”
“Sebastian.”
“In front of my father…that would be embarrassing.”
Sebastian, who had been in a different carriage, smiled when he saw us.
Like Claire, I would probably become self-conscious if Mr. Ekenhart was around.
But then again, I had a feeling that we would likely end up doing the same thing around him without even realizing it.
