My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Chapter 948

It would be difficult to deal with matters immediately

“If only there was something that could be done about the slums…”@@novelbin@@

“I understand that you can only hire so many people at once… But surely there are other things that could be done?”

“There are forceful methods, I suppose. But there would be objections. I think it would be difficult to do in Ractos.”

“People come and go all of the time… Many pass through on their way to the royal capital. So even if everyone was removed from the slums now, it would just fill up again over time…”

“The fenrir forest to the south is very big, and connects to other territories. It is the same with the forest around the northern mountain. People go around them and through Ractos from other territories.”

“I see…”

We continued to talk while heading towards the west gate. According to Sebastian, most of the people living in the slums were from other towns and villages. Though, a few were also criminals who were on the run.

Also, there were orphans like Liza. As many could not afford to take care of their children.

“It seemed to me that there were a lot of abandoned buildings there. I suppose that makes it easier for people to end up living there.”

It sometimes happens in Japan. Where people would use abandoned buildings without permission as a hideout.

Though, you would be arrested if caught.

Still, it cost money to properly manage buildings and ensure that no one went inside. So a lot of times they were just left as they were.

“Well, the buildings are being torn down a little by little… Most of them are old, and would probably collapse on their own.”

“As for what to do with the people… Some may commit crimes against the other townsfolk… Also, they may deter any new people who would consider moving here…”

“Yes, it is quite difficult…”

“In any case, there is nothing that can be done right now. And so we should return to the mansion and think it over.”

“…Yes.”

We were close to the west gate now, and no one had any good ideas.

So I nodded at Sebastian and turned my mind to other things.

“…There really are a lot of people with those ear hats.”

“Hehe. Yes. Now Mr. Takumi and Sebastian could wear them, and no one would even notice.”

“Claire… I only wore it that one time because of Liza…”

“Hmm… The day has finally come… Lady Claire is the one teasing me…”

“Oh, I was not teasing you. I truly think you two would look adorable.”

Sebastian could only sigh at this. In no world would someone like him look adorable with those hats.

“Wuff!? Wuff-wuff!”

“Hmm. Leo? Ah, so you’re hungry.”

Leo noticed the food stalls and started barking.

The people here were used to seeing Leo, and one person was purposely fanning the food so that the scent of sausages wafted towards Leo.

…It was good that they weren’t scared, but now we were always seen as people who would buy a lot of food…

At least Leo didn’t run to them immediately. She knew how to wait. And the fenrirs would not run out before Leo did…
