My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

Chapter 953

Nick confided in me

“They are happy that there will be some new work for them to do. Many were not able to find work before… And since I was able to get out of that situation…they come to me to complain…I mean, for advice.”

“To you? That’s strange…”

“Because I have a serious job now. And so they wanted to know how I managed that. Of course, it was all thanks to you…”

“Well, that’s true. After all…you came at us with a knife…”

“I…I really am sorry about that! Honest! I will never threaten you again!”

“Uh… I didn’t mean it like that… I’ve made mistakes too…”

In any case, I did like it when he talked like some kind of fanatical follower.

“We’ll talk about that later. So, the slums…”

“I see. It’s not like you have your own business, or make enough to hire others.”

“Actually, you pay me enough that I probably could hire one or two people.”

“I do?”

Now that I think about it, his salary was a little on the high side.

That being said, even if he did hire someone, it would not be making much of a difference.

“You give me this much money… I will probably follow you for the rest of my life now!”

“Uh… Don’t think that far ahead… In any case, we will have to give the matter some thought. Of course, I can’t make any promises.”

“Oh, I’m sure you will think of a wonderful solution to this big problem!”

He said with great expectation showing in his eyes.

But I was not some genius who was capable of doing anything.

In any case, I told Nick that I would think about it, and had him return to Ractos.

“Wou?”

“Hmm. What is it, Leo?”

“Mr. Takumi. You seem to be eating less than usual… Is something the matter?” I think Leo is worried.”

“Ah… I was just thinking about something. Thank you for worrying about me, Leo.”

“Wuff.”

Damn it. Ms. Helena had prepared a delicious lunch for us, and yet I was hardly even eating it.

I smiled at Claire to reassure her and then thanked Leo.

“Could you tell me about it?”

“Yes, it was just something that Nick asked me about earlier…”

“Excuse me, Mr. Takumi. I have a message from the master.”

“For me?”

I was going to tell Claire, but was interrupted by Sebastian, who came out into the garden.

What could it be?

“There is one for Lady Claire as well. But I believe this one is about the butlers.”

“I see. Thank you. Ah, we can talk about that other thing later, Claire. As I said, it’s nothing for you to worry about.”

“Yes, very well. Besides, you should find out what my father has to say first…”
