My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

I Showed Milina The Herb Garden

 

“Master, I came….
But what are you doing?”
“Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr.
Takumi.”
“Thank you, Ms.
Lyra.
…Uh, Leo and Tilura wanted me to play with them.
And Liza was here too, and I couldn’t resist…oomph!”

“Wuff!”

“Ahahaha!”

“So fast!”

 

By the time that Ms.
Lyra had returned with Milina, I was playing with Leo and Tilura.

It was the first game we played when I came here, where I would throw a tree branch and Leo would go and fetch it.

Only this time, I didn’t throw multiple branches in different directions, but just threw it straight.

Liza was riding on her too, so I didn’t want Leo to run too fast.

…Though, I was sure that Leo would be careful.

 

Milina looked a little puzzled over this, so I answered her while throwing the branch.

You really are used to doing this now, Leo.

She quickly dashed forward and caught the branch in her mouth while it was still high up in the air.

But she was also careful to not throw them off, much to Liza and Tilura’s delight.

It seemed that Liza was just as active as Tilura and loved being outdoors.

 

“Hah… Well, as long as they are all having fun, it is a good thing.
But why did you call me? Was it to play with them as well? Ah! Or do you have complaints about the medicine I made!?”

“No, no.
It’s nothing like that, so calm down.
Uhh…just wait one moment.
Leo.
Milina is here, so I’m out for now.
You can continue to play with Liza and Tilura.”

“Wuff!”

“Understood!”

“…Papa.
Where are you going?”
“Don’t worry, Liza.
I’ll be close by.
You can continue to play with Leo.”
“Oh, okay!”

“Kyau!”

 

Leo returned and I accepted the stick that she was holding.
And so I told her I had to go.

Leo and Tilura nodded understandingly, but Liza looked anxious whenever she sensed that I was leaving.

And so I reassured her, and then she replied energetically and grabbed on to Leo.

Yes, she really had become attached to Leo… Also, I think she liked the feel of her fur.

For some reason, Sherry nodded her head and barked at the same time.
Hey, I wasn’t talking to you, okay?

Well, at least she seemed to be enjoying herself.

 

And so as Leo started running in the garden again, I turned to face Milina.

I needed to show her the herb garden.

Still… Milina had initially thought I had a problem with the medicine… Did I look like I was so strict?

In any case, after sighing with relief about it, she then glanced over to where the others were playing.
She looked slightly jealous.

Well, if there was still time after showing her the herbs, perhaps I should let her play with them… It would be nice if she could become friendly with Liza.

 

“Now, Milina.”
“Yes, master!”
“There is something that I want to show you.”
“Show me? What is it?”

“Yes.
Well, it’s over here.”
“Ah, yes.”

 

And so I told Milina to follow me as I walked over to the spot where the herbs were planted.

As for Ms.
Lyra, she continued to watch over Leo and the others.

Once we arrived at the herb garden, I saw that there were two butlers there, who had likely been given orders by Sebastian.

There was a table there, and they were writing what were probably records of the growth on sheets of paper.

I greeted them and stopped in front of the plants.

 

“Huh? Master, this… This is not normal grass, is it? Are they herbs?”

“Yes.
They are herbs made with Weed Cultivation.
We were testing to see if they would take root, and if we could breed them… But we only started this morning…”
“This morning… But they have increased so much!”
“That’s just it…”

 

As expected, Milina was very surprised when she saw the field of herbs.

Also, in spite of the fact that it had barely been an hour since I was looking at them with Mr.
Ekenhart and the others…they had grown visibly again.

 

“Excuse me, did you notice any change with them?”

“Yes.
They have grown between the time that we started watching them and now.
I have never seen plants grow at such a speed… Quite astonishing.”

“I see.
Thank you.”

 

When I asked one of the butlers who was taking notes, he confirmed that they had continued to grow.

While I was now sure that it was because of Weed Cultivation, the speed was still surprising.

 

“Master, they are still growing?”
“Yes.
And in such a short time.”

 

Before, they were still like small sprouts, so it was difficult to even tell what kind of herbs they were.

But now, the leaves were all in clear shape and the type of herb was obvious enough.

 

“So they grew this much since this morning… And it’s all because of your ability?”
“I think so.
There is no other real explanation.”
“Weed Cultivation really is amazing! I can hardly believe it!”

“Well, that is true.
Trying different things and making new discoveries…I am constantly surprised.”

 

Milina looked at me with admiration.

As this ability was something given to me without my knowledge, I didn’t think of myself as amazing, but I suppose she saw me and the Gift as something inseparable.

In any case, there was much to discuss.

Unlike when she was at the orphanage, Milina now had something that she wanted to be.

And so as we watched the herbs, we talked about what to do from now on.
