My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World-Chapter 864
Chapter 864
We visited the chief’s house
“Hahaha! Delia made that mistake a long time ago. However, she’s continued to call him Mr. Pig ever since. Though, recently she has been too embarrassed to say it out loud… I suppose she had lowered her guard?”
“Hey, Mr. Kanat! Stop! Don’t say that in front of Mr. Takumi! Arghhh…”
“Uh, Ms. Delia. I think it’s a cute mistake. So please don’t be too embarrassed…”
Ms. Delia was so overtaken by her mistake, that she covered her face and squatted on the ground.
Her tail drooped and her ears were folded. She looked terribly depressed.
And so I had to pat her on the head encouragingly for some time…
“Excuse me. Chief, I brought you some guests!”
After Ms. Delia had recovered, we continued on to the chief’s house, and called to him, as he appeared to be resting in his room.
His house was slightly larger than Mr. Hanes’s house, and seemed to have a lot of rooms.
His wife and son, as well as the son’s wife, were also there, and we greeted them.
“Oh, Delia. I see that you are doing well. As for the guests, welcome to Bleiyu village.”
“Ah, chief. You don’t have to get up. You have to rest easy, don’t you?”
“Still, it is rude to greet guests while lying down.”
“It’s fine. We know what happened. Please do not worry about us.”
“I’m sorry you have to see me like this…”
The chief lay in his bed, and only his head moved as he greeted us.
He appeared to be slightly younger than Mr. Hanes, but looked quite weak. Well, Mr. Hanes traveled a lot, and was probably just more healthy.
The chief’s name was Yanesafka.
“Well, we will be waiting outside then.”
After introductions were made, Phillip and Nicholas went outside to meet up with Mr. Kanat.
Ms. Delia went with them, and also asked for some tea to be brought up.
As for me, I stayed in the room in order to talk to the chief a little longer.
“Thank you for entertaining an old man… Ouch…”
“Ah, please don’t sit up…!”
“No, even if you…Takumi, say you do not mind. I do not feel comfortable talking to you like this. Now, will you lend me a hand?”
“Yes…”
The chief had tried to get up after Ms. Delia left, but his face contorted with pain. It was clear that moving was not easy for him, but he would not listen to my protests.
And so I slowly helped him to sit up.
“Now…Takumi. Did you come here because of Delia? I heard you two met in Ractos.”
“Uh, no… I would not say that… Though, that is where we met.”
I answered the chief honestly.
I could not tell him everything about my purpose, but I said what I could without lying. Sebastian and I had discussed this in advance.
“Hmm… I don’t think you are lying. But you aren’t telling me the whole truth, are you?”
“Uh…”
“I can tell. But Delia seems to be fond of you, so you can’t be a bad person. Besides, I am the chief here, and have met enough visitors to be a good judge of character. Though…I am thinking of letting my son and his wife take over soon.”
The chief was looking at me sharply, as if trying to read me.
It reminded me of the first time I met Mr. Ekenhart. Though, the chief was not quite as intimidating.
Perhaps his bad back was the reason.
In any case, as Ms. Delia was happy to see us, he seemed to have a mostly positive impression of me, at the very least…
