My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

I had to teach her how to throw

“Mr. Takumi.”

“Yes.”

Claire called me with a serious expression as she prepared to throw the branch.

It really was not that serious. We were just playing… Still, I suppose she was like this because it was her first time.

“Here it goes! Hyah!”

Her form was terrible, but this was not a professional sport, so it was fine…

“W…uff?”

“Got! Here, sister Claire!”

“Umm…Claire?”

“Kyau…?”

The branch that Claire unleashed went flying through the air…and then it fell down right in front of her.

Everyone had been expecting it to fly in an arc, so it flying straight down to the ground was a little surprising.

Perhaps I should have given her some tips first.

“Mr. Takumi. I don’t understand it… Isn’t it supposed to fly across the garden? I copied you exactly, after all.”

“Well, you probably should start with letting go of the branch as you swing. Not a second after you stop.”

“Oh, but it’s so difficult.”

“Uh, I suppose you don’t throw things very often?”

“Ye…yes.”

“It cannot be helped. There is little reason to throw things normally.”

She had been raised carefully as the daughter of a duke. Though, they had told me that she was quite a tomboy early on… Still, she was not used to these kinds of things.

“Oh…how embarrassing… Perhaps I really am not suited for this.”

“I wouldn’t say that… Most people fail when it’s their first time doing something like this.”

“Is that so… But you made it look so easy.”

“Because I did it many times. Look, we’ll try it again. Here, hold it like this and bend your arm…”

Claire blushed as I held her hand, but she quickly focused on my directions.

I did not miss that Sebastian was grinning in the corner of my vision, but I decided to pay him no mind.

“Like this. Once you swing and your arm reaches here, let go of the branch.”

“I…I understand. Here…”

As long as she didn’t get this part wrong, it should probably fly fine.

The rest, like her form, was not that important…

I doubted she could focus on all of that, and it wasn’t like I was an expert about throwing anyway.

“Alright. Now, Leo and Sherry… And the rest of you. Liza too. Claire is going to throw it again.”

“Wuff.”

“Kyau!”

“Yes!”

“Ve-very well…”

And then I turned to Claire and gestured for her to throw it.
