I Gave Them Sleeping Herbs

“That’s enough then. Don’t forget to wash up before going to bed.”

“Yes. Thank you!”

“Thank you. And good night!”

I thanked Mr. Ekenhart after training.

But before returning to the mansion, I suddenly remembered something.

“Ah, Mr. Ekenhart. Tilura. Please wait one moment.”

“What is it, Mr. Takumi?”

“What’s the matter?”

“Tilura, since you trained so hard today… And for you too, Mr. Ekenhart.”

They turned around after I called out to them. And then I gave them some recovery herbs for their muscles, as well as some herbs for fatigue.

“Oh, the one that rids your body of tiredness. Thank you.”

“Thank you, Mr. Takumi!”

“Now I won’t be tired tomorrow!”

“…Are you that exhausted, Mr. Ekenhart?”

During the training before dinner, as well as the mental exercise, he had not looked out of breath at all.

I hadn’t realized that he was tired…

“Well, a little. Especially after the matter with Claire… And riding on Leo today…”

“Wuff?”

“Hahaha. You’re tired after just riding on Leo?”

“Grr… You may say that. But Tilura and Sherry kept making her run faster…while I was still on…”

During the day, I had suggested that Mr. Ekenhart play with Leo and Tilura.

Apparently, things had gotten a little out of hand, and that was why he was so tired…

Well, I’m sure being scared of Leo made things worse.

And then there was the whole matter with Ms. Claire, that meant he didn’t get much sleep.

“In that case…you should take this too.”

“…What is that?”

“It’s a herb that will help you sleep better. Not only that, but you should feel very refreshed when you wake up tomorrow.”

“Oh, that sounds good!”

I hadn’t given anyone these herbs since the time we went to the forest.

There wasn’t anyone here who had trouble sleeping, and normal sleep was enough to rid yourself of tiredness.

Still, if combined with other herbs, he should be able to wake up the next morning feelings extra refreshed.

…But as it was probably similar to sleeping pills, it would be best to not use them too often.

“Now, I will return to my room.”

“Thank you, Mr. Takumi. Good night.”

“Good night!”

I gave him just one of the sleeping herbs and then returned to my room.

As I also felt more tired than usual, I ate the recovery herb.

While I could make them whenever I wanted, and it was greatly convenient, I didn’t want to rely on them entirely, so I just took the bare minimum.

I would use them when I could, but that was all… That was how I thought recently.

That being said, I would continue to research Weed Cultivation and help people with the herbs.

With medicine, you have to follow instructions and use them properly…

“Wuff.”

“You must be tired too, Leo.”

“Wuff-wuff.”

After returning to my room, Leo suddenly became playful.

I suppose she had been with Mr. Ekenhart and Tilura for most of the day, and so she wanted me to pay her some attention.

“That being said, we have to bathe first… I sweated quite a lot.”

“Wuff-wuff.”

“Haha. Fine then. I’ll go alone.”

“Wuff!”

As soon as she heard the word ‘bathe,’ Leo moved away and became quiet.

While things had gotten a little better, she still disliked bathing.

I would have to bathe her again eventually, but she wasn’t too dirty right now, and so I would go alone.

“I’m back, Leo.”

“Wuff-wuff.”

After washing off the sweat and warming myself, I returned to my room.

Then I petted Leo and sat on the bed.

“Wuff-wuff… Hah-hah-hah!”

“Hey, hey. Calm down. I’m not going anywhere.”

Leo started licking my face as if she wanted attention.

I laughed and petted her thoroughly on the head.

Once I had petted her enough, I got into bed in order to sleep.

A lot has happened today, and I will do my best tomorrow.

There was the medicine I had to concoct with Milina, and the wine.

—

The next day, Tilura and Sherry visited in order to wake us up. And I talked with her while washing up.

I am now used to shaving my beard… Which is to say, I could do it without cutting myself…much.

Though, I was still on my guard.

“Mr. Takumi, Leo. Let’s go and eat breakfast!”

“Haha. You sure are energetic, Tilura. Alright, let’s go, Leo.”

“Wuff!”

“Kyau!”

“And you too, Sherry. I haven’t forgotten about you.”

After seeing that we were ready, Tilura moved excitedly towards the dining hall.

Don’t forget about me! Sherry seemed to say as she rode on top of Leo’s head. And so I petted her as we walked.

Now that I thought about it, what happened yesterday, after Ms. Anne realized that Sherry was a fenrir?

Was she fine with Sherry?

Well, since Ms. Claire stayed with her, I doubt there had been any problems.

“Good morning everyone.”

“Good morning, Mr. Takumi.”

“Good morning.”

“Ah, Mr. Takumi. Morning.”

“Wuff?”

When I entered the dining hall, Ms. Claire and Ms. Anne were already waiting at the table.

I greeted all of them and realized that something was different.

…Mr. Ekenhart?

He was usually not present during breakfast, but he was now sitting at the table without a hint of drowsiness.

I had never seen him like this at breakfast before.

Leo must have thought the same thing, as she was looking at him with her head tilted in a puzzled expression.
