Ms.
Anne Was Not In Favor of Drastic Treatment


 

“Hahaha! Perhaps Anneliese should undergo the same drastic treatment in order to become familiar with Leo?”

“Drastic treatment?”

 

Ms.
Anne had been looking at Leo, and was deeply impressed by her ability to sniff out the wine.

Leo nodded proudly at this, and then she tilted her head at Ms.
Anne and barked once.

Upon hearing this, Mr.
Anne raised her voice in alarm.
She even tried to move her chair away from Leo.

But like Ms.
Claire said, Leo would never hurt anyone.
But she was still afraid… Couldn’t she see how cute Leo was…

 

Mr.
Ekenhart then recommended she undergo the same treatment that he had.
And Ms.
Anne seemed interested in knowing what it was.

However…I wasn’t sure about that… It had worked with Ms.
Gelda, but Ms.
Anne seemed even more frightened of Leo… 

 

“Yes, this drastic treatment.
You will ride on Leo as she runs.
This way, you will see just how safe Leo really is.”
“Ride…on Leo?”

“Yes, Anne.
By doing this, you will be able to see for yourself that Leo would not harm any humans.”
“Wuff.”

 

Ms.
Claire added to Mr.
Ekenhart’s explanation.


But Ms.
Anne seemed a little put off now… It was no wonder.

Leo was the object of her fear.
The idea of riding on Leo as she ran would only increase that fear.

Still, it was through this treatment that Mr.
Ekenhart and Ms.
Gelda had quickly gotten used to her…

And Leo really enjoyed carrying people.
Even now, she was nodding and wagging her tail.

 

“Well, perhaps it is not necessary.
Surely interactions with Leo will be enough…eventually?”

“That is true, but… Don’t you feel bad for her, Mr.
Takumi? To have someone be so afraid of her…”

“That is true… But it’s up to Ms.
Anne…”
“I-I-I-I…that’s… I think I will pass on this one…”
“Really? But it is the fastest way to do it…”

“Yes, you seemed to really enjoy yourself, father.
I can still hear your screams.”
“You are talking about the return trip from Ractos.
That was different…”
“Wuff?”

 

Indeed, I agreed with Ms.
Claire that it would not be nice to have Leo be feared like this… She wouldn’t like it.

I wanted everyone to know that Leo was adorable, and not some terrible monster… However, Ms.
Anne had no intention of undergoing the drastic treatment.

 

“It is not good to force things.
Yes, Leo will be extra careful from now on so that she doesn’t scare Ms.
Anne.
Won’t you, Leo?”

“Wuff-wuff.”
“I see… If you insist, Mr.
Takumi…”

“How unfortunate.”

“…I don’t know if it will be successful… But I will do my best so I don’t have to resort to such treatments…”

“Hahaha! Well, just take your time with Leo.
It should not be difficult on your part.
And you will soon understand that Leo is really cute.”
“Cute… This wolf… A Silver Fenrir…? You really are a strange man, Mr.
Takumi…”

 

I didn’t think it was a good idea to force things.

With Ms.
Gelda, while she was scared, she was still interested in Leo.
And it hadn’t been complete fear like it was with Ms.
Anne.

And so I decided against using the drastic treatment this time.

Though, Ms.
Claire and Mr.
Ekenhart looked rather disappointed…

 

“It’s odd then that you are fine with Sherry.”
“Perhaps it’s because Sherry is still small?”

“…What is this adorable creature? When did you decide to keep it?”

“Kyau!”

 

Ms.
Claire picked up the puzzled Sherry and brought her closer to Ms.
Anne.

It seemed that Ms.
Anne did not know about Sherry, and so she patted her on the head adoringly.

 

“This one…Sherry.
She is my familiar and a fenrir.”

“A fen…rir… Are you cer…tain?”
“Kyau!”
“Wuff!”

“Mmm.”

 

And so Ms.
Claire told her that Sherry was a fenrir.

Upon hearing this, Ms.
Anne froze and looked at Sherry in disbelief.

Sweat was dripping from her temples.
Was she alright?

After Ms.
Anne managed to stutter the words, Sherry, Leo and Mr.
Ekenhart nodded as if to answer her.

 

“But fenrirs are ferocious monsters! Perhaps they are not as bad as Silver Fenrirs, but they are still feared! Why would you have that as a familiar…!”

“It’s thanks to good Leo.
She is the one who found Sherry when she was wounded in the forest.
And she seemed to take to me on the way back to the mansion…and then became my familiar.”
“It should not be that easy to make a fenrir your familiar… I do not believe it…”
“Kyau?”

 

Saving Sherry was probably a big part of it, but it was also because Leo was there.

If something happened, there was someone much more powerful nearby… Perhaps she had no choice but to submit.

Well, as for Sherry, now that Ms.
Anne had screamed and moved away, she was looking at her hand as if to say, ‘You’re not going to pet me anymore?’ She really did act like a dog.

In the end, it probably had less to do with being a fenrir or Leo, and more to do with Sherry being a pup.

 

“Not only a Silver Fenrir, but a fenrir as well… How foolish father was to go against this house…”

“But you were the one who suggested it…!”

 

Ms.
Anne had been muttering to herself during tea, and Ms.
Claire had to interject.

I watched them with amusement for some time as I relaxed.
And then we all dispersed.

As Ms.
Claire would keep an eye on Ms.
Anne now, she should be fine.

Sherry was also with them, and seemed to have taken a liking to Ms.
Anne after being petted.

 

“What are you going to do now, Mr.
Takumi?”
“I’m going to make the herbs to give to Ms.
Helena, and then practice my swings.”
“I’ll swing too!”

“I see.
It’s important to be consistent.
I know, I’ll join you two.
I don’t want to get rusty.”
“Wuff.”
“Yes.”

 

Mr.
Ekenhart saw me stand up, and so he asked me what I was going to do.

My plans were to do my daily swings and make some restorative herbs.

Tilura would practice her swings too.

And apparently, Mr.
Ekenhart and Leo wanted to join us.
