My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World-Chapter 855
Chapter 855
She saw the smoke from the fire
“Mr. Takumi!”
“Ah, that voice… Ms. Delia?”
“Ah, the beastkin lady. I could not tell from this distance…”
“Well, it is a woman. And considering she is coming from the village, it must be her.”
However, she seemed to be running very close to the ground, which seemed odd for a human.
Wait…was she running on all fours?
“Mr. Takumi!”
“Ah, it really is Ms. Delia. What is she doing out here? Hey!”
“I wonder as well. And that speed…”
“Well, beastkin are much faster than humans.”
“Perhaps we could run faster if we ran like her?”
“…That’s a bad idea. I doubt you could do it even if you tried.”
Now that I was sure that it was her, I called out and waved my arms. And then Ms. Delia seemed to run even faster.
At this point, it seemed like the same speed as a horse. I suppose it had something to do with how strong beastkin are.
“I came to gree…hmmph! Woah…you!”
Ms. Delia was running so fast that she was not able to stop, and ended up passing us.
However, she quickly stopped and then used her tail to balance herself so that she did not fall. And then she turned around and raised her arm.
“You knew that we would pass through here?”
“No… As I knew you would come, I was going around the village. I only realized it was from this direction because of the smoke yesterday.”
“Smoke… But wouldn’t it have been during the night?”
“Yes. It was already dark when we made the fire. I don’t think you would have been able to see the smoke at night…”
While we had told her when we were going, we did not tell her what route we would take. And we had not gone by the usual path.
As for her seeing the smoke at night, perhaps her ears were an explanation? They were cat-like, so maybe she could see well in the dark.
“Um…what are you holding? Or to be more accurate, dragging…”
There was something unfamiliar in her left hand.
It was not moving, but it was several meters long. And she had been dragging while running.
“Ah, this thing? I caught it before coming here. It’s a serpent!”
Ms. Delia looked rather proud as she thrust out her left hand, and pointed the serpent’s face towards us.
Well, it looked dead… However, as she had thrust it out suddenly, the tail whipped out and nearly hit me.
“Serpent… Phillip?”
“Well, while it could be dangerous to hunt it alone, it is not impossible. However, there is no weapon slash on it at all. That is surprising.”
“It is definitely a serpent… Normally, you would kill it with a weapon to avoid being bitten…”
“Oh, but it is much faster to give its neck a little squeeze?”
