Chapter 1143
The people who were invited to the mansion appeared to be restless
“…Mr. Keith, I think that’s enough. Mr. Takumi looks like he is troubled now.”
“Ah… I got a little carried away. I apologize for acting in such a meddlesome way.”
Ms. Jane interrupted, which finally made him stop.
“No, I accept it all as advice that relates to me and the herb fields. I am also sorry, and will be sure to confide in you in the future.”
Just because I was hiring him, I did not want him to think that he could not contradict me or give his opinion on things.
If anything, I was glad to find out that he would complain about such things if he felt there was a problem.
“Please rely on me as much as you can. That is why I am here.”
“Yes, thank you. Both of you.”
“Certainly.”Ms. Jane also smiled and bowed.
I probably would cause trouble for them in the future…
Regardless, I then left the room and headed towards the garden.
Claire would probably take some time to get changed, I did not want to keep the others waiting…
“Mr. Ta-Takumi. Ar-are we really allowed to be here…?”
“I didn’t think we’d be invited to the duke’s mansion…”
“I see that the fenrirs are all unique. I was scared at first, but they seem to like being petted.”
“If I knew this was going to happen, I would have worn better clothes.”
“But aren’t those your best clothes? After all, you knew that Lady Claire would be there.”
“Well, it’s better to feel nervous here, rather than the house in Range village.”
“I am going to live in that house…”
“Leo and the fenrirs are so nice and soft. I will be able to brag about touching them!”
I heard the various voices of the employees.
“Haha… It looks like they are a little restless.”
“Indeed. While we had planned it originally, it seems that it was very unexpected for them.”
“Well, they were much more nervous at first. But Mr. Sebastian’s explanation helped to calm them down.”
I talked to Sebastian and Alfred, who were standing in front of the group of people.
Leo was with Volgrau, and Rahle, the fenrirs, and Cokka and Trice were there as well.
“Hmm. Is that Walter over there? I see that some people have gathered.”
In the shadows near the house, I saw that some people were sitting together while Walter stood in front of them.
“He is telling them a story. He was very excited to talk about the terrors of the fenrir.”
Terrors of the fenrir…
Well, his stories were often about justice, and he would take inspiration from legends and old stories. However, he had a knack for creating realistic details.
For instance, even when good prevails over evil in the end… It does not just end in punishment, and he would go on and explain what happened for the rest of the person’s life.
Of course, if he was going to tell such stories to children, he would have to leave the gore and torture out of it… Yes.
I had some experience with fighting now, and so I wasn’t too sensitive to such things… But even I felt a little nauseous.
He had told us some stories while waiting at the guard house as well, and both Phillip and Johanna had looked rather pale in the end…
