The Duchess of the Attic - 93 Outside Edition
In the idyllic landscape of the fields, a disproportionate number of stylish carriages arrived.
However, the locals who were working on it wave their faces open without surprise.
The Duke and Duke of Bozzelli, undoubtedly the lord of this land, wave their hands back with a smile through the window.
Previously – in the Duke’s day, the lords had to kneel down and bow their heads immediately, but the new Duchess told me that such a greeting was not necessary.
Even so, the people, who were initially half-hearted, believed that the Duchess had begun pruning with them with the scythe. ― ― Unlike the aristocrats who have been tough and mighty.
Moreover, even then, when I came to see how things were going, they called me casually to ask if I was disabled or if I needed anything.
The inhabitants embraced and adored the newly arrived Duchess and his wife.
I’m not going to suffer from poverty anymore, nor am I going to be a rebel stronghold and frightened.
On the contrary, the work was made easier with agricultural equipment that I had never seen before, and the fields were expanded and the number of livestock increased.
The nobles are hunting, but they don’t trample the fields with their horses.
The faces of the inhabitants were bright and full of hope.
Opal, did you have a good picnic?
“Yeah, I’m glad the rain three days ago didn’t affect my house or my crops, just because the river was a little heavier.”
“It’s not a picnic, it’s an inspection, Opal.”
“It wasn’t Claude who invited us to areas where the rain was particularly strong.”
Opal laughs and complains, and Claude, the dog, says, “Wow!” Claude snapped and put her forefoot on the human lap.
Because of this, Claude’s trousers get dirty with dry mud.
Usually a well-behaved dog Claude, but occasionally he plays pranks on human Claude.
“Claude… you haven’t wiped your feet yet.” I’m the one who gets scolded by Jill. ”
Claude’s face grinned vaguely as he deliberately sighed and was scolded by his obsession.
Unbearably, Opal spouts out and laughs, and Claude laughs out loud.
Claude, the dog, said, “What’s wrong with you?” I just tilted my neck, and it was strange again. ”
The bright laughter is accompanied by a smile from the gentlemen and servants outside the carriage.
However, after a while, Claude, the dog, barked in an unusual voice.
“Claude, let’s stop the carriage.”
Yeah, that’s right.
Opal silenced Claude, who barked violently outside, and sent a signal outside the carriage for the human Claude to stop the carriage.
The moment the door opened, Claude jumped out.
Claude!
Opal grabbed Claude’s arm as he ran down the dirt road.
I hadn’t even stepped on it yet.
“I’ll go, Opal, come back.”
“Thank you, Claude.”
Claude jumps off the carriage and dexterously descends a poorly maintained berm.
Looking worriedly at the situation, Opal also got off the carriage using the footstool provided by the squire.
Claude, the dog, barks at Nakaju as he steps up to the riverbank.
Looking at the leaning grass in the river, Nakasu is usually land.
“Is there something in Nakaju? Ah, hey!”
Claude!
As soon as the human claude caught up, the dog claude jumped into the river.
The Opal screamed unexpectedly as he descended from the easy-to-walk place that the squire had searched for.
The flow is not so fast, but it is still dangerous.
However, out of fear of the Opals, Claude the dog swam lightly to Nakaju.
She continues to shake her tail as she thrusts her face into the bush.
“Looks like there’s something there.”
I wonder if it’s an itch or a rat?
Claude finally answered the caught-up Opal, picking up the dead branches that had fallen around and poking them into the river.
Apparently, it was measuring depth.
Are you going to cross?
“I’ll see what I can find out.” Either way, you have to bring that claude back, right? ”
“… be careful”
Yeah.
I know it’s okay because I’m talking about a careful Claude, but I can’t help but worry.
The servants rushed after them, but neither of them thought of letting them go instead.
Opal watches Claude carefully as he drinks his saliva.
In fact, it’s not that far away, but it’s not that reassuring.
Then Claude stood up in Nakazu and Opal breathed out in relief.
Claude looks straight into the bushes where his dog Claude is poking his head.
“Ah…..”
“Claude? What’s wrong?”
“… it’s a cat. There’s a kitten.”
Claude stuck his hand in the bushes as he said it.
Certainly, I could hear the thin sound of a cat in the river.
Claude grabbed the little kitten in one hand and came back to the shore.
“Opal, say hello to these children.”
“Yes, I’ll take care of it.”
Having received the two kittens, Opal held them to his chest and instructed his squire to watch Claude as he turned back to Nakaju.
One of the squire hurried back to the carriage.
“This is the last time.”
The third time Claude wakes up from the bushes and says so, the dog Claude agrees, “Wow!” he barked.
Then, the four kittens in the cage that the squire brought me startled.
“You had a mother cat, too. Thank goodness.”
It’s a little weak, though.
Then we must hurry home!
Claude wrapped up his mother’s cat instead of wiping himself when he gave her the towel from the carriage.
Opal deposited the cage with the servant who was holding it beside her and turned it back, but stopped immediately.
Is Claude okay?
Of course.
Wow!
Both responded cheerfully, so Opal relieved and climbed the dirt road again.
Behind them was a wet claude and a wet claude.
As you enter the carriage, you wrap the cats in an opal knee and return them to the cage, passing the new towels to the human Claude.
I brought more towels and sheets just in case and it was the right answer.
Isn’t it cold?
“Yeah, I’ll be fine, just wipe down Claude.”
Okay, okay, okay.
It was Claude, the dog who had his body shaken and filled with moisture before riding in the carriage, but he was still firmly wet.
By the time I wiped it down with another towel, the opal was covered in mud and dirty.
Well then, I’m sorry that Jill scolded you.
“I’m going to be pissed off by Naja too.” I should have taken Naja. You could have taken care of the kitten. ”
“For now, I have a mother cat, so isn’t it okay?” You look better than before. ”
It’s true.
The mother cat is licking the bodies of the kittens who have not yet opened their eyes.
He must have been desperately protecting the kittens as the river increased with the rain.
You did a great job.
Opal called out to the cats on her lap and stroked her dog, Claude.
Claude gladly shakes his tail, and the dry soil soars.
“Claude was great, too.” I found the cats. ”
Opal, what about me?
Claude, who was sitting next to her, seemed to be shaking his tail waiting to be praised by Opal.
It was strange and spurted out again before I could answer.
“Why are you laughing?”
Because I don’t get bored when I’m with Claude?
“It’s the same for me.” I’m not bored with Opal. I wonder how many times I’ve gotten so wet like this. ”
“That’s Julian’s fault.”
Many times as a child, Julian’s meanness caused Opal to fall into rivers and ponds.
Claude helped me every time.
When I remembered, I was angry with Julian again, so Opal reverted to the subject.
Well then, Claude did his best, so I’ll give up the naming parents of the cats.
Are you going to keep all of them?
“The museum is very spacious.” There’s plenty of room for cats. ”
There are already two cats in the museum’s cooking area.
Claude laughed, wondering if it might not be so much of an opportunity.
Well then, the most energetic person is [Opal].
Hey, Claude!
Claude, the dog, shakes his tail happily again as Opal raises his voice in protest.
Claude, a human who just barks at me, is crazy, and Opal laughs again.
“What would you do if you were a boy?”
“It’s fine because you’re so energetic, isn’t it?”
“Yeah…”
“So, this is [Julian]. Look, I just started a fight with Opal.”
Claude is right, the two kittens are hungry for their mother cats.
Opal laughed, and Claude laughed with her, so strange that she could no longer protest.
After that, the friendly kitten was named “Naja”, the always calm kitten was named “Trevor”, and the mother cat was named “Marcia”.
In the Duke of Bozzelli’s house, the light footsteps of the energetic cats began to resound…. sometimes sounds of destruction and screams.
