【122】
So it has an owner. Then I need to find them!
“But why is a dog with an owner doing this here?”
“Who knows… Was it abandoned?”
Thump.
At Elzen’s casual remark, tears welled up in my eyes instantly.
No, really.
I wasn’t about to cry, but suddenly I was.
It was just so pitiful.
That’s when it happened.
“Grrrrr.”
The dog, regaining consciousness, staggered to its feet and bared its teeth at us.
Its tail was curled tight as it growled, though it seemed like it wanted to flee but couldn’t.
“Oh my! Elzen, look there. Its leg is badly injured. What do we do?”
“Yeah. That’s probably why it hid here.”
“And if you look closely, doesn’t that collar seem way too tight?”
It didn’t seem like this dog was beloved by its owner.
To be honest, it looked like it had been abused.
Not something I should say out loud, but just looking at the intense hostility and wariness it showed toward us made it clear.
“Hey, listen. If you’re willing, I’d like to treat your wounds. I’m not trying to hurt you.”
Crouching down, I spoke to the dog from a distance.
“Really. Look. There’s nothing in my hands, right?”
Worried it might not trust me, I deliberately showed my palms and glanced up at Elzen.
“Should I knock it out?”
“No! That’s not it…”
“The aura it’s giving off doesn’t seem like just a regular dog. It’s like a trained hunting dog, so don’t get close before I knock it out, Shu. It’ll bite you.”
Elzen released a sinister aura. The dog flinched violently and growled, but this time there were whimpering sounds mixed in.
‘It’s scared.’
Seeing that, I quickly grabbed Elzen’s pant leg.
“Wait! Just five minutes!”
“It won’t work.”
“But still…”
It doesn’t seem like we can’t communicate at all.
Because it looks like it understands what I’m saying.
“There, there, it’s okay. Being dragged away unconscious somewhere would be really scary, right? So instead, come with me by your own choice.”
Whine.
Whether frightened by Elzen’s aura or not, the dog that had been baring its teeth and watching nervously soon drooped its ears.
‘Ah, if only I had dog treats or a big chunk of meat covered in meat scraps!’
First, I need to get closer so I can treat it or do anything at all.
‘Wait. Could Eden Shop have something decent?’
I only saw what the Earth, Chaos, and Luck Spirit King left behind earlier.
I didn’t see what Mother and the Flame, Air, and Emotion Spirit King left behind.
[The Emotion Spirit King ‘■■■’ wears a smug expression.]
[This is exactly when I’m needed, isn’t it?]
“Older Brother, keep an eye on the puppy so it doesn’t go anywhere!”
“Go where?”
“Just a moment! It’s a lady’s secret.”
Pitter-patter!
I hurried around the corner and disappeared, blowing a kiss off my hand before murmuring softly, “Eden Shop.”
‘At least I can look at what the Emotion Spirit King left behind.’
I quickly skimmed through everything else and finally found what I wanted.
Feeling anxious? Feeling down?
A bear doll made by the Emotion Spirit King.
Just 3 stamps per piece!
Effects
Keeping it nearby brings peace of mind and helps one escape from various troubles to find stability.
Warning
Only 1 purchase per person.
This is it!
I would’ve preferred something edible, but a bear doll works too. Puppies like toys, after all.
‘Upiros, I’ll buy this!’
[🙂: 11 ▶ 8]
[Purchase complete. Would you like to receive the item now?]
‘Yes!’
Light flickered in the void, and the bear doll dropped into my hand.
It was just the right size for such a large puppy to hold in its mouth and shake around.
“So, what do you think? Doesn’t it look nice? Don’t you want it?”
Returning to the puppy, I gently waved the bear doll in front of its eyes.
[The Water Spirit King ‘Aurora’ advises you to rub your scent on it before she throws it to you.]
Following Mother’s advice, I kissed the bear doll and rubbed my cheek against it before hugging it tightly. Then I tossed it, but the puppy raised its front paws slightly and took a defensive stance.
“Whimper…”
“It’s not scary. It’s just a doll.”
“Growl…”
“It’s okay. Really. I won’t hurt you.”
Sniff sniff.
The creature sniffed at it, made whimpering sounds, and growled repeatedly. Then it suddenly plopped down beside the doll, and the way it rested its chin on the bear doll with such a dejected expression was absolutely adorable.
“Where did you get that bear doll?”
“It’s a lady’s secret.”
Elzen seemed interested.
The puppy, which had been on edge until just moments ago, had suddenly found peace, and he seemed fascinated by the change.
‘Even my ragged breathing has settled down.’
The creature’s eyes, now gentle and docile, fixed upon me. I met its gaze without flinching.
But that was when it happened.
Flutter, flutter.
The Jellyfish drifted on the breeze and glided away smoothly.
Toward the Dog.
And then—
Gulp!
“Kyaaah! It ate my Jellyfish!”
No!
“Ptooey, ptooey. Come on, okay?”
With a tearful expression, I reached my hand toward the Dog’s snout. At that, the creature growled again, its eyes flashing with caution.
“It’s dangerous, Shu!”
The moment Elzen snatched me by the waist, a brilliant blue light erupted from the Dog.
I didn’t understand what was happening, and the light was so blinding that I squinted, but Elzen seemed to be concentrating intently.
“…It’s being healed.”
“Huh?”
“No, wait—is time reversing?”
What does that even mean?
Startled, I stopped struggling and opened my eyes wide.
And sure enough, something like rings were appearing on the Dog’s legs, waist, and neck.
The bluish rings had numbers inscribed upon them, changing at incredible speed.
00:00:00
The numbers all became zero and then stopped.
The Dog was… completely healed.
“It doesn’t seem to be a healing ability—it appears to be a time reversal ability.”
“Gasp.”
“Your Mother had the ability to traverse dimensions, so it wouldn’t be strange for you to possess a time reversal ability.”
My goodness.
I’m really something incredible, aren’t I?
Too bewildered to speak, I said nothing.
The Dog seemed equally shocked, and the creature that had been examining its injured leg suddenly sprang to its feet.
And it spat out the Jellyfish.
My precious Jellyfish—it’s alive!
“Let’s head back for today. We should tell the adults about this.”
“Okay. But what about the Dog…?”
“If it refused to come, I was planning to knock it out and carry it, but it seems it’s following on its own.”
Woof!
The Dog protested against Elzen’s words, tapping its front paws rapidly. Then, wagging its tail, it approached me first.
Tap.
The instant the soft, wet nose of the Dog touched my palm.
I fell completely in love.
‘So cute. Incredibly cute.’
It even brought back a teddy bear without dropping it.
Just imagine it.
How adorable could it possibly be!
And so that evening.
I found myself burying my nose in the soft, clean fur of the Dog.
‘Warm, wonderful, blissful.’
The Dog, now smelling of soap, was actually larger than me. When it stood on its hind legs, it towered over my height.
Its appearance resembled a wolf more closely, but surely it couldn’t be a wolf?
Yet its personality was so much like a retriever’s.
‘Big because it’s a king, so it’s even cuter!’
Fur that gleamed like black silk.
Eyes the fresh green of new spring shoots.
A dignified snout, long slender legs, and the most adorable ears.
My first puppy was this magnificent.
Moreover, after bathing and feeding it well, I couldn’t believe how obedient it was to me.
Remarkably intelligent, it simply lay under the Bed without moving.
It caused no trouble and never tried to jump onto the Bed.
“Have you decided on a name?”
“Yes, Father! It’s Mengdol!”
“Mengdol….”
Father couldn’t suppress his laughter.
“Back then you called that bird Podong, and now it’s Mengdol, I see.”
“It suits him perfectly, doesn’t it? And it’s easy to call out.”
“Indeed.”
After hearing the entire story, Father congratulated me warmly.
At the same time, he mentioned that this ability was far too dangerous and likely to attract unwanted attention, so we should keep it secret among ourselves for now.
“Father, can I sleep while holding Mengdol?”
“Hmm, it seems this creature has already recognized you as its master.”
“Yes! And it appears the previous owner trained it. Look.”
I confidently extended my hand toward Mengdol and called out.
“Paw!”
