Come Here, Tyrant! - Chapter 40

[Oh, are you okay? The blood on your hands…]

Ejed nodded his head calmly. For this guy to be abandoned by its owner, it hurt his heart more.

When Jake learned of Ejed’s heart, he was loyal to Ejed. When Ejed came, he ran out and shook his tail and greeted him happily.

“Bark! (Ejed!) Bark! (Ejed!) Bark Bark! (I missed you!)”

“Yes, yes. I also missed you.”

“Bark! (Hey!) Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark (Quickly hug me!) Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark! (Quickly!)”

Your voice is so loud.

Ejed forgot that he was sick and looked down at Jake. He was thrilled to know that there was someone who welcomed him.

Still, I can’t hold you for today.

Now, as Ejed tried to turn his head, Jake barked even more.

“Bark?! (What?!) Bark! Bark (Because I want to hug!)”

The dogs responded to the sound while biting one piece of dog chew in their snouts. Their gazes moved.

Before long, the dogs’ eyes twinkled as they discovered Ejed.

No, that person!!!

The dogs all dropped their dog chew and ran toward one place.

“Bark! Bark! Bark!”

“Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark Bark!”

Trot, trot.

The puppies went through the field of dog chew and ran to Ejed.

The warehouse was thrown into chaos in no time, and Ejed panicked and stepped back.

He would normally hug each of them one by one, but not today.

Recently in the empire, it had been said that a rare disease in which animals also suffered from was transmitted to them by humans.

He was worried that these children would catch it and get sick.

Ejed felt more sorry than sick, but he couldn’t help it.

“Sorry. Not today. Go over there and play.”

Ejed whispered embarrassedly and stuck closely to the wall. The puppies sat in front of him and whined, regretting.

The puppies’ pupils sparkled. They were very smart and knew how to weaken Ejed.

They pretended to be pitiful in front of him as if they had practiced beforehand as a group.

“Kiing…”

“Kiing, kiing.”

“Keeengg… Keeng…”

You’re still not hugging me?!

The dogs stared at Ejed with moist and wet eyes. They were very persistent.

Now, as he hesitated, Ejed closed his eyes tightly and shook his head greatly.

He was forced to close his eyes.

“No, no. Go and play with the dog chew.”

“Kiing, kiing.”

“Woof woof!”

“Wal! Wal wal wal!”

When the old trick didn’t work, the puppies acted cleverly. They bit Ejed’s pants or licked his long exposed legs.

“Ah, go away! It tickles! Stop it! Stop that!”

The puppies hardly stopped. Rather, they circled around him as if playing a joke.

Let’s play! Play!

Being surrounded like this felt both good yet difficult to handle, so Ejed smiled embarrassedly.

“Hah… really.”

People said that he was a tyrant and pointed at him, but these guys didn’t know anything about that, so they stuck to him like this every time.

Somehow, his heart ached. When Ejed smiled bitterly, the puppies became more frantic.

They seemed to be encouraging him.

“Thank you for welcoming me. How are you all?”

“Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!”

“Ruff Ruff!”

“Pogby, Lionen, and Etran. Oh, Koran is here too.”

Ejed patted the children gently, calling out their names one by one sweetly.

At that moment, a golden retriever with a glossy coat of cream-colored fur came in through the door.

Ejed blinked his eyes in surprise.

‘Is it a new child?’

There were very few dogs in this shelter that he didn’t know, so it’s very likely.

In addition, a child who seems to be quite old was likely to have been abandoned like other old dogs.

His chest hurts. If this old guy had been abandoned, he would have been more hurt.

‘That’s…’

The youngest member of the Dsev family was also a golden retriever, so they got more attention. If it met a master like Annie, it wouldn’t have suffered like this.

The golden retriever, who came in slowly, didn’t bother to get along with the other kids. It just laid down near the dog chew and closed its eyes.

In regret, Ejed approached slowly so that the child was not surprised.

“Hi? I’m Ejed.”

“…”

“Would you like to eat that?”

He pointed his finger at the pile of dog chew. Then the dog woke up, glanced at the pile of dog chew, and turned his head.

In other words, it was ‘no.’

It was very mean.

“…”
