Chapter 732
Liza had a strange suspicion
After dinner, I finished training with Tilura, and then I took a bath to wash off the sweat. Then I returned to my room and sat on the bed while petting Leo.
“…We ended up talking for quite a long time today. I suppose it was quite boring for you two?”
“No. I didn’t understand it much… But it sounded important!”
“Wuff-wuff.”
Apparently, Liza had still been listening and was not bored.
Leo was nodding in agreement…but I wasn’t too convinced.
“Hey, papa?”
“Yes, what is it?”
“Uh…”
She suddenly looked like she wanted to ask me about something. Though, it seemed more like curiosity than anything serious.
“Are…you not a human?”
“Huh!? Why do you ask that? I…am a human…”
“Well, when you were talking earlier… You said that you and mama came from a different place. That is not here… So I thought that maybe you were not human…”
“Hmm… I suppose I can understand that… Yes, it was a different place from this one. But that doesn’t mean that I’m not human.”
Sometimes, children think of really surprising things. But I had not expected this…
Though, I had never told Liza that I was from another world…
“Is that so? I thought that maybe you were different from other people…like me. But if that was true, people would bully you too.”
“Oh, so you were worried… Thank you. But I’m fine. Everyone has been very nice to me. Besides, if people did try to hurt me…”
“Grau!”
“Right? Leo…your mama, would not allow it.”
“Yes! You will be fine if you’re with mama!”
While Liza did not really understand how I could be from another world, she sensed that I was different. And so she was worried that I might have been persecuted as well.
Of course, that had never happened. And if it did, I would just use my sword… Though, in order to reassure Liza, I just looked towards Leo.
“Wou. Wuff-wuff.”
“Thank you, mama. Aha!”
“Hey, Leo. Don’t do that too much, okay?”
“Wuff!”
Leo pushed her nose towards Liza and licked her face as if to reassure her.
While Liza seemed happy, I didn’t want her to have to wash up, and so I told Leo to be careful.
“Hmm?”
“Wuff?”
I was just starting to think about going to sleep, when I heard a quiet knock on the door.
“Mr. Takumi, Leo, Liza…are you still awake?”
“Tilura?”
“Wou.”
“It’s sister Tilura!”
While Tilura was usually loud and energetic, her voice was very hushed now. Perhaps it was because it was late.
“Is something the matter? Come in. We’re all still awake.”
“Yes, excuse me.”
Tilura hesitantly opened the door and entered the room.
Liza rushed forward and hugged her.
