Taichi | Ahh~, that was fun~! |
Sakuya | Getting to wander around the theme park before it's open was a realy treat, wasn't it. |
Tasuku | Yeah, it's something you don't often get to experience. |
Hisoka | The scenery was beautiful everywhere. |
Misumi | There were triangle flags and decorations~! |
Izumi | Then let's split here for today. Rest well, everyone. |
Sakuya | Yes! |
Kazunari | Then I'll return to my room too ――. |
| ? A dog's barking......? |
| I wonder where it's coming from. |
Azuma | Kazu? What's wrong? |
Kazunari | I just heard a dog bark so I was wondering it was. |
Azuma | You're right. Perhaps it's inside the hotel. |
Kazunari | Shall we go take a bit of a look? |
| ......Say, this barking is from more than one dog, right? |
Azuma | You're right. It seems like there are several....... |
| |
Puppy | Bark bark! |
| *whine~*....... |
Staff | If you don't eat up, you won't grow big, you know? Come on, it's delicious....... |
Puppy | Bark bark! |
Kazunari | Woah! There are three of them! They're super cute! |
| Can we take a photo!? |
Staff | Ah, I don't mind, but please be careful......! |
Puppy | *growl*....... |
Azuma | They don't seem very friendly? |
Staff | That's right.......Even when we give them food, they won't make much of an attempt to eat. |
| They aren't attached to any of the staff here at the hotel....... |
Kazunari | Are they being kept by this theme park? |
Staff | Yes. We took in three of them to be mascot dogs we'd call watchdogs, based on the image of Kerberos from Greek mythology. |
| But they won't take to us at all; I'm ashamed to say we're at a complete loss for what to do....... |
| We're especially busy getting ready for the opening now, so we haven't been able to play much with the puppies, and before we knew it they'd become this oppositional to us....... |
Kazunari | Maybe the reason they're behaving like this is that nobody played with them~. |
Azuma | Perhaps they were lonely. |
Kazunari | BTW, what are their names? |
Staff | From left to right, they're Cer, Beru, and Su. |
Kazunari | ?? Those are kind of strange names. |
Azuma | Could that be the English reading of Kerberos? |
Kazunari | Ahh, I see! Cerberus! |
Staff | That's correct. Kerberos would be exactly like the original, so we tweaked it just a little to make these names. |
Kazunari | Cer-tan, Beru-tan, and Su-tan, huh. C-yuute~. |
Staff | At first, we'd wanted to have them appear at the opening ceremony to advertise them too, but....... |
| As things are, that seems doubtful. |
Kazunari | ......Ah, that's it! Hey, Azu. |
Azuma | Fufu, we must be thinking the same thing. We've got two cat whisperers now, so they might be able to do something about dogs too. |
Kazunari | That's my Azu; we're of the same mind ☆ |
Azuma | Would it be okay if we came to see these pups? |
Staff | Eh? Yes, that's fine, but....... |
Kazunari | We might be able to do something about them! |
Staff | R-Really......!? Please do! |
Kazunari | Then let's try talking to everyone tomorrow! |
