Come Here, Tyrant! - Chapter 43

‘Why are there so few puppies?’

Carla tilted her head.

There were far fewer puppies than expected in this large area. The only dogs she found were the dogs that were being treated.

The question was kindly answered by a female staff member in the reception room.

“All the puppies would have gone to eat dog chew. A good person gave us dog chew today.”

No, even if you don’t have anything to donate, why donate dog chew?

Carla acknowledged the donor’s good deeds, but it was also regrettable.

‘I’d rather donate money. Then it would be used for hospital expenses for dogs in urgent need.’

Of course, she was grateful for the donation itself.

A quick witted female employee smiled and added her words.

“Do not misunderstand. He is the one who supports all the expenses for the hospital and for the children’s feed every time.”

“Really?”

She felt sorry for some reason.

Carla repented, apologizing to the donor who she did not even know the face of.

“Yes. Plus, um, when he rescued the trapped puppy himself, he hurt his hand, and he brought the puppy in his arms nicely.”

“Oh my goodness. He’s a really nice person.”

“Yes. I’ve never seen such a good person. The only flaw is that he has a terrifying aura. As I said, it’s hard to even talk to him. He talks too little.”

Carla, who was listening while holding a warm tea cup, asked seriously.

“Is he single?”

“… What?”

“Are you his girlfriend?”

“Eh, ah. No way!”

‘Huh. Looking at the reaction, it’s not a lie.’

Carla’s eyes lit up sharply.

Wouldn’t it be nice to keep the possibilities open if he was a wealthy man and sincerely caring for these dogs?

‘As a preliminary candidate for our young lady’s mate… Oh… No!’

‘I’m crazy!’ Carla realized it too late and shook her head. It’s obvious that Annie will hate her, but why does she do this?

As Carla became depressed, the staff asked anxiously.

“Are you uncomfortable? Do you want a glass of water?”

“It’s okay… Well, My Lady.”

“Yes?”

“That bachelor… no, young man… no, which family is he from? No. He’s single, right?”

Wouldn’t it be okay if she just closed her eyes and pretended as if she came and asked in her young lady’s stead?!

Even if Carla was scolded later, she wanted to show courage.

She didn’t mean to rush ahead recklessly, but if it’s good, then it will work well. If it’s not, she can just stop.

Since there was a chance, it wouldn’t be bad if she just said something.

‘And our young lady declared not to marry, but that does not mean no romantic relationships!’

“Ah.  Um… I don’t think he was wearing a ring…”

‘Really?!’

Then, somewhere, she heard the window breaking.

“Ah, there are weird people over there!”

As she turned her head, she saw two men in the window beyond the parlor.

They were throwing stones at the window.

“Oh my gosh…”

The surprised female employee didn’t know what to do and held her cheeks with both hands. Then Carla courageously approached the window and opened the door.

“Hey! What dangerous jokes are you grown-ups playing?!”

“S-Sorry!”

Even the suspicious voices had strangely low voices.

‘Aren’t these thieves?’

Carla urgently asked the female employee.

“Wouldn’t we have to report those bad guys to the Defense Knights?”

“Ah… they… they ran away?”

Indeed, only blades of grass were fluttering in the place where the two men were standing.

Those bad guys walk around in broad daylight!

Carla asked hastily.

“How do I report it?”

“Ah… I pulled the emergency rope! The knights are coming!”

The female employee showed her the old rope on the table. It was also a new building, so the security was thorough.

Carla, who returned to her seat, inhaled the cup of tea.

She would have to report it. She was going to ask about the young man until her master returned.

“So, are you saying that there is a young man who has excellent personality, wealth, and physique?”

‘Isn’t that an imaginary animal?’

As Carla looked suspiciously, the staff nodded her head vigorously.

“Yes! But he’s a bit silent and scary!”

*

“Excuse me?”

“…”

When the young man, who had been talking well a while ago, closed his mouth, the purple eyes distorted.

You could ignore people, but you couldn’t pretend to not hear them no matter how many times it was said.

But the puppies ran to the man one by one and scratched his leg with their paws.

Their tails wagged brilliantly.

‘What do I do? Why are they kicking their feet like that?’

They got nervous. The young man had insulted a tough person a while ago, so their concern must be greater.

However, the young man must have been embarrassed. He only fluttered with his elongated limbs but did not kick them or get angry.

Rather, the whining children were pitiful, so he reached out his hand and stopped them.

The young man turned his head when he coughed even with his mask on.

Annie’s expression subtly softened to that appearance.

“Woof woof!”

“Wal wal wal wal!”

In the meantime, the puppies waved their tails to express affection to the young man.

‘… The kids like him a lot.’

A man who receives the love of dogs looks quite different.

These children’s eyes were sharp. They were rejected by someone or were abused and had great distrust in humans, so they were very accurate in identifying personalities.

Annie, too, had almost been bitten by a puppy here once or twice.

Even now, there are ferocious black dogs who growl in a pile of dog chew and stare at her.

By the way, the dogs’ eyes toward the man seemed to have collected all the love of this world.

The children licking the black shoes looked very happy.

“Woof woof! Bark bark!”
