Chapter 695
Leo was digging a hole
“Well, let’s go and see.”
“Yes. Since we already finished talking…”
“In that case, I shall move things along, as discussed.”
“Thank you, chief.”
“Yes, I will do my best for the village, and Mr. Takumi. In hopes that it will be a worthy contribution to the duke and all who live on his lands.”
“…Uh, you don’t need to be that serious about it… But I’m sure there won’t be any trouble. Claire will be here as well.”
Perhaps it was no surprise that Mr. Hannes would be so serious about it. But I agreed. Since Claire and Sebastian would also be helping, there was no need for him to feel wholly responsible.
“Wuff… Wou!”
“Woah…that’s so deep, mama!”
“Leo is amazing! Can Rahle dig like that?”
“Kii? Kii!”
“Flying is very different from digging.”
“Kyau?”
“Uh, you want to go inside too, Sherry? Go ahead. I…am too big to go in.”
“…Leo. What are you doing?”
“Wou? Wou! Wou-wou!”
With the others, I walked over to where Leo and the others were talking excitedly.
Leo then turned to me with a proud expression… Uh…she had dug a hole?
“A hole… Ah, so Liza is inside.”
“Papa! Mama said it’s okay to dig here, because there is a lot of space! Isn’t this amazing? Mama dug this so quickly!”
“Leo dug it without using any magic!”
“I see… Well, as long as you are having fun…”
“Wuff!? Wou-wou!”
“No, I’m not mad. I’m sure it’s fine if you’re doing it in an open place like this… But you still have to fill it up later.”
There was a hole that was about a meter wide… As for how deep, it went up to her chest, so it was probably around a meter as well.
Both Liza and Tilura seemed happy about it. But what was the purpose of digging a hole?
I wondered and asked Leo. But Leo thought that I was upset, and so she shook her head and barked her excuses.
“Still… Now that I think about it, you haven’t dug at all since coming here. So you might as well have some fun for now.”
“Wou!”
Leo was happy after I gave my permission.
That being said, she could not dig them too deep. If Leo got carried away, she would probably start digging holes everywhere. And depending on how deep they were, it could get quite dangerous.
“Did good Leo always like to dig holes?”
“Well, it was a bit of a habit before.”
“I see. Sometimes, Sherry would look like she was trying to dig around her bed. And I wondered why.”
“Yes, Leo did that. I suppose it was when she was restless. Or it’s a way of making your sleeping place more comfortable? Though, she usually failed…”
“…Sherry will often look a little sulky afterwards. So you must be right that they have failed. Hehe…”
Claire laughed at the thought, and I remembered how Leo was when she was small.
She would often try to dig into cushions… I thought it was due to stress, but she would also do the same thing outside. I did some research, and read that it could be an attempt to make a nest.
Of course, it depended on the dog.
In any case, I was just glad that she did not use the same magic she had before. The magic she used to dig a hole when we had to bury that troll.
If she did that here, the hole would have been too big, and everyone would have fallen into it.
