Feri returned to the forest
“Gurr…? Gurr!”
“…Alright. We’ll be waiting.”
Through Liza’s interpretation, I learned that Feri thought it would take six days. But he did not sound very confident. But perhaps he did not have the same concept of time as us.
Apparently, it would likely take around two days to find them. And then he would rest and prepare for four days, and then return.
“And when you come back, you can all eat hamburgers together.”
“Gurr!”
Feri wagged his tail happily. He seemed to like them as much as Leo liked sausages.
“Wuff!”
“Gurru!”
Leo barked encouragingly and Feri nodded.
And then he turned around and ran in the direction of the forest as we all watched.
He didn’t run with the same incredible speed that he had during the race. It was more similar to the speed he ran in while going around the mansion. Perhaps it was because he was used to carrying people now.
Or it was because he was worried about the food around his neck… It was very important to him.
“It will be a little lonely…”
“Don’t worry, Tilua. Leo and Sherry are here. And there is…”
“Grau.”
“Gau.”
“Haha. Yes. Fen and Riruru are still here too!”
“Kii!”

A few days passed after that, and then it was the day that Feri was supposed to return with the other fenrirs.
We had been very busy with preparations for our move to Range Village… Well, not too busy. But we had plenty to do in the meantime.
Most of it was making sure of what we would bring. I also continued to watch the herb fields and train.
The field would become even smaller once we left, but I made some extra herbs so that it could last as long as possible.
I also managed to memorise the names of all my employees, and then moved on to learning the names of the people that Claire was hiring.
While it might sound like a lot, I was not overworked and had plenty of time to rest and enjoy Ms. Lyra’s tea.
It was the same with Claire. She appeared to be busy, but still had time to spend with Tilura.
These days, she did not pester her about studying anymore. Though, perhaps it was because she didn’t need to. Tilura was much more serious about her studies now.
Also, I noticed that she seemed to talk with the servants a lot recently.
I wondered if she was planning something again. Regardless, I would just wait to see what it was.
“Phew…! That should do it. …Volgrau, you’ve really started to fit in here.”
As this was the day Feri was supposed to return, we had come outside in order to prepare for the welcome party.
After setting up the simple stove, I stretched my limbs and sighed.
It was then that I saw Volgrau with Fen and Rahle.
They really did seem to get along now.
A short distance away, I saw that Walter was looking at them as if he wanted to join in.
I suppose he was still a little scared.
A few days ago, he had even taken a ride on Rahle with Sebastian.
Thanks to the chewing gum, he did not get sick, but it was still quite a frightening experience for him.
Thanks for the chapter.
