Chapter 903
I approached the fenrir
“M-Mr. Takumi??”
“I think that it’s fine. But you stay there, Ms. Delia.”
“Ye-yes…”
I had a feeling that the fenrir did not mean us any harm. And so I slowly walked towards it.
“…I knew it.”
Its eyes were fixed on me, but it still did not move as I got closer.
Not only that, but while I was able to sense a powerful presence before, I no longer felt anything.
As the distance between us shrunk, there were several things that I noticed.
The most obvious thing was that its fur was no longer standing up, and appeared soft and fluffy.Right now, it was in a relaxed state that reminded me of the other fenrirs.
Also, there was something odd about it in terms of balance… Like it was supporting itself on its left leg, as it tilted a little to that side.
Perhaps it was just a habit. But I was used to seeing Leo, who supported herself equally with both legs.
“Well, the biggest reason that I think it is safe is…”
The tail was so large that you could see it from a distance.
And it was wagging from side to side.
Tails told you a lot about their emotion, and seemed to move as if it had a mind of its own.
“So…you aren’t an enemy?”
“Guff…”
Once I was close enough to touch it, my suspicion became a certainty.
Still, it continued to stare at me with sharp eyes. I hesitated, and then stretched out my hand so that it could sniff it. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“Hmm. Seems to be alright. Still, why were you acting so aggressive earlier?”
“Guff? Guff…guff!”
“Hmm… I don’t know what you are saying. But I suppose it was a misunderstanding.”
I started to pet it as I asked the question, and it tilted its head like Leo, and lowered its nose apologetically.
As I was not a beastkin, I could not understand what it was saying, but could see that it was a mistake.
“In any case, you don’t mean us any harm?”
“Guff-guff!”
“I see. Hey! Phillip, Ms. Delia! It’s fine. It doesn’t mean to hurt us!”
As I petted it, the eyes too started to relax. And so I decided to call the others, who were still on their guard.
“Mr. Takumi… No, Takumi. This is quite surprising…”
“Well, I was surprised too. Though, Feri and the others did say that they never attacked humans without reason…”
“Hah… This is a relief…”
When Phillip came closer and saw how relaxed the fenrir was, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was much more sensitive to its presence, and had clearly been nervous and bracing himself to face it.
“Uh…are you sure? I don’t mean to doubt you, Mr. Takumi. But…”
“It’s fine. Also, why don’t you just ask it directly?”
“Guff-guff.”
“Ye-yes. It did say that it won’t attack us…”
As she was a beastkin, she was able to understand what it was saying. And so Ms. Delia finally relaxed.
Well, her ears and tail were still pointing up, so perhaps she was unconsciously still on her guard. It could not be helped.
