The Beginning of Irisdina's Love of Dogs

As the next head of the Francilt family, it is absolutely necessary for me to broaden my horizons.

Today I was invited to visit the plateau on one of the Francylt family's territories. The altitude is relatively high, and the land is rocky and unsuitable for farming.

"What do you think, milady?"

"Well, there aren't any fields or anything of the sort here, but I can see that the people here don't seem to be minding it at all......"

"Yes, it is true that they cannot grow crops here, but they can get abundant wool from their livestock breeding. Wool is the backbone of the wool industry. Therefore, they earn a modest but reasonable income."

As an attendant and educator, my maid told me, the sheep were gathered all over the meadow, forming a white colony everywhere.

"It looks like it's time to put them back in their pen."

At that moment, a number of black dots, smaller than the sheep, appeared from the shadows of the hills.

"They are livestock ranchers and their sheepdogs. Their lives have always revolved around their dogs."

The dogs jumped into the herd of sheep that were relaxing in the meadow.

A large sheepdog circles around the entire herd of sheep, keeping an eye out for foreign enemies, while a medium-sized dog leads the sheep as they whirl about.

"Amazing ...... it is as if they are moving the clouds."

A painting on a green canvas. The sight of the sheep, the dogs, and the people, who are supposed to be of different species, fascinatingly surprised and excited me.

"I wish I could have brought Somia along to show her ......"

"Well, that's true. So please remember it properly. Then we can tell Somiriana-ojōsama later......"

*Waun!*

"Eh?"

Before I knew it, there was an angel in the shape of a puppy at my feet. No, since I already have an angel named Somia, I should call this child a fairy. Round eyes, fluffy body, and an adorable gaze.

When I gently picked her up, I could feel the warmth that is unique to puppies.

At this moment, my decision was made in an instant.

"...... I'll take this child home with me."

"Leave her here."

The puppy was immediately taken away and sent back to its parents.

Ah, wait! At least let me hold her a little longer~~!

The Victim and the Root of All Evil

"Okay, I guess this is enough."

After finishing cleaning Shishō's hut, I wiped the sweat off my forehead.

It had been about a month since Shishō had passed away.

I had been visiting her hut regularly to clean it.

Even though I knew that no one lived there anymore, it was a place that held a certain amount of fond memories for me.

And despite the fact that I know it is inevitable that the place will eventually be swallowed up by the forest and fade into oblivion, I still want to take care of it while I can.

"Then again, there have been more and more demonic beasts approaching this hut lately. Before, they hardly ever came near it because there was Shishō here......"

Three Wild Dogs lie at my feet with their heads cut off.

I still have to clean Shishō's grave, but I feel strangely tired.

My legs are heavy ....... Can I go home now?

[Oi, you foolish disciple, get on with it!]

I wonder why, I think I just heard some strange voices.......

I feel like it's going to haunt me, but the next thing I know, the sun is about to set. I had to dispose of the demonic beast that had attacked me, and it seems that a lot of time had passed more than I thought it would.

Well, I guess I'll have to clean up Shishō's grave tomorrow. I should also sell the materials I had dismantled from the demonic beasts, so let's go back to town for today.

As I made my way home, I was chased by a swarm of demonic beasts that reminded me of that time.

That old hag has really come back to haunt me!

While running around, I had to deal with each and every one of the demonic beasts that came charging out.

Fortunately, the monsters that were chasing me naturally all scattered by the time I reached Arcazam. Probably, they thought it was safer to eat the demonic beasts I had defeated than to target me.

For a while after that, there were fewer demonic beasts approaching the hut, which made me even more anxious.

This hut is not cursed, is it?
