Chapter 819
I was consulted regarding Sherry
“Oh, you seem to be having fun, Mr. Takumi.”
“Claire.”
“Sister!”
“Hehe. You seem rather sweet today, Tilura.”
“Hoho. I see that you have been deciding things little by little…?”
“Yes…”
Claire and Sebastian had not come out into the garden. Tilura immediately hugged her sister. They had become a lot closer after fighting.
Or perhaps she was doing it because Claire would be leaving eventually.
“Mr. Takumi. I wanted to talk to you about Sherry…”I had finished my training, and still had some time before dinner. And so Claire and I were resting at the table and drinking tea.
Tilura had Cokka on her shoulder while Liza had Trice. And they were running around with Sherry.
“About Sherry? I think Leo knows more about…”
“Wuff?”
Leo was resting next to me, and she now turned her head with a puzzled expression.
“Of course, Leo as well.”
“…Has something happened to her? She looks quite energetic to me. Perhaps she is not listening to you?”
“No, nothing like that. She is always very obedient. It’s just that she sometimes likes to bite things. Oh, she does not bite people. Not hard, anyway. She might just nibble on my hand a little.”
“I see… I had not seen her do anything like that…”
Even though she looked like a medium sized dog, she was a fenrir. And so she could do a lot of damage if she bit someone seriously.
But Sherry was smart, so I thought she wouldn’t do such a thing.
“What does she tend to bite? And what causes her to want to…”
“Not so much people…or anything that is specific. I suppose hard things made of wood or rock…”
“And you have seen this?”
“No, she just looks restless while I am watching. But when we are separated, I sometimes return to see teeth marks. And Sherry says that she bit it…”
So she has the urge to bite something, but does not do it when Claire or others are around.
“And did Sherry say what the reason was?”
“I asked her, but she just says that she is restless. And that biting helps her to calm down.”
“Could it be…”
“You know?”
“Wou?”
Well, it was just a guess.
Leo was tilting her head. But surely she should know as well…
If it was what I was thinking about, then Leo had experienced it as well. Of course, back when she was a maltese dog.
“I cannot be sure, but I think it’s because her canines are regrowing…”
“Regrowing?”
“Wuff!?”
“Uhh… Leo. Don’t you remember? That uncomfortable feeling you had when your teeth were regrowing. You were always trying to bite things.”
“Wou…? Wuff-wou!”
“Leo used to be like that…”
I said with exasperation, and after thinking about it for a moment, Leo nodded with realization.
It seemed that while Leo had gained a tremendous amount of knowledge through coming to this world and becoming a Silver Fenrir, her old memories might be fading.
But then again, she was only several months old. So perhaps it was not strange for her to forget…
