Chapter 528
Liza was worried about me
As Mr. Ekenhart said, I was focusing too much on one orc, and failed to weaken the other.
I had thought that I was keeping calm, but I suppose I was also in a rush to enact the plan that I had thought of.
“Oh, father. Mr. Takumi was hurt. Even though he healed himself with Loe, the fight only just ended. You can talk about that later! You should let him rest a little longer…”
“Ah…that is true. Hmm. Sorry, Mr. Takumi. I could not help myself. In any case, it was an impressive fight. Rest well now.”
“Ahaha. Thank you.”
It was true that I was still tired, in spite of the Loe.
After all, it did not recover your strength.
“…Still, Mr. Takumi. Is it just me, or does Claire seem too protective over you?”
“Why are you asking me that?”
“Oh, father. Just stop that!”
While I felt a little bad for Mr. Ekenhart, he clearly enjoyed teasing his daughter as well.
“…Papa, does it hurt?”
“Hmm? Ah, I’m fine now. I healed it with herbs.”
“Really…?”
Liza had got down from Leo’s back, and she touched my left arm as she asked me.
Her eyes were a little teary. 𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡𝙚𝒂𝙨𝙩.𝙘𝒐𝙢
…Perhaps I had caused her to worry too much.
And so to show that I was fine, I used my left arm to pet Leo.
“That’s good. Those orcs hurt you… I want to fight them some more now!”
“Wuff!?”
“No-no-no-no-no. Wait a minute, Liza!”
She looked relieved for a second, but then her eyes lit up again with renewed hostility towards the orcs.
While I was glad that she was angry… We had gone through so much trouble to stop her from fighting.
Besides, it was my own fault that I got injured.
“Listen, Liza. I got hurt because I made a mistake. Normally, that wouldn’t have happened. But I took a risk. And I suffered the consequences. Besides, this is all for training, so there is no reason for you to fight as well.”
“Wuff-wuff.”
“That’s right, Liza. Mr. Takumi will surely not be injured next time. Your papa is very strong. So do not focus your anger on the orcs. Understand? I’m sure he will show how capable he is next time!”
“Hmm… Really?”
We were rather frantic, in trying to persuade Liza.
Her anger subsided, and she calmed down, but still seemed puzzled.
While it was good that she could be persuaded, it showed how much trust she had in Ms. Claire as well…
Well, I wasn’t planning on getting hurt next time anyway, but… n𝚘v𝚎l𝚎as𝚝.c𝚘𝚖
There was now even more pressure to avoid the same mistakes.
“Wuff?”
“Hmm? What is it, Leo?”
“Mama?”
After we managed to persuade Liza that there was no need for her to go out killing orcs, we all sat around the fire and at lunch.
As the orcs hunted today had not been prepared yet, we ate the orc that Leo defeated yesterday.
In fact, we were hunting so many that we would not be able to eat it all.
It was a nice problem to have…and at least it tasted good.
And so we discussed whether we could bring some back with us to either sell in town or eat at the mansion.
This would be possible, because we could use magic to freeze the meat.
While they couldn’t freeze it as quickly as Sherry…Ms. Lyra and the maids were quite good at such things.
That was one of the reasons they had come.
Also, the orc meat could last for a few days anyway, which was convenient.
It was then that Leo suddenly raised her face from her plate of sausages, and turned towards the river.
Liza, Ms. Claire and I were next to her, and asked what was wrong…
