Chapter 700
We departed for the mansion
“Lady Claire, Mr. Takumi. Good Leo. Please be careful…”
“Yes, thank you.”
“Thank you.”
“Wuff!”
Two days after Mr. Ekenhart and the others left, we said our goodbyes to Mr. Hannes at the gate of the village, as it was time for us to return.
The villagers had also come out to see us off.
“Kyun…kun.”
“Kyau. Kyu-kyu.”
The Maltese was pressing its nose against Sherry and looked very sad. Apparently, it could tell that we were leaving. How smart.
Sherry also barked as if to console it, and they rubbed their faces together.
It had really taken to Sherry for some reason, and the two had been inseparable for the past two days. When Sherry would join Leo and Tilura with the digging, the Maltese had followed and ended up falling into the hole. And so Leo had to rescue it.
“Sherry. Let’s go.”
“Kyuu… Kyau!”
“Kuuun. Wuff!”

Claire called to Sherry before she stepped into the carriage, and then Sherry and the Maltese said their goodbyes.
It seemed like Sherry was promising that she would return.
“Now, let us be off!”
“Wou!”
“Rahle, make sure to fly close to everyone!”
“Kii!”

A few days later, we were somewhere between Ractos and the mansion.
As we camped outside and slept in tents…it was not exactly the most comfortable. But we still got enough rest.
“Hmm…?”
“Wuff?”
“What is it, papa and mama?”
As we got closer to the mansion, I saw a familiar figure near the gates in the distance.
It was getting dark, and so I could not see clearly, but…I was quite sure about it.
Awoooo!
The howling came from the gate. It echoed loudly, and the guards and horses suddenly stopped.
“Mr. Takumi. Is that…?”
“They seem to be welcoming us? At least, that is what Leo is saying…”
“I see. And is it…”
“Yes. I think it is. Leo?”
“Wou!”
It seemed like they knew that Leo was with us, and so they had howled…
