Sihael stoodatthe edge of the bright room and startedto lookaround.


    Suddenly being put in an unfamiliar environment, he slowly explored his newenvironmentwithoutloweringhis guard. He lowered his nose towards the floor and sniffed while wandering around the spacious room.


    Unlike before, where he was blocked by iron bars even if he moved a bit, Sihael was able to look at me while freely walking around the room.


    Of course, he was still inside a cage, but this time it was a wide, clean, and well-lit cage. It was quite a pleasant environmentinparison to his previous one.


    He moved again after I gestured with my chin, encouraging him to keep moving.


    After being stuck in that narrow ce, I was proud to see him move to his heart’s desire.


    To give this room to Sihael, Irenovatedtwo fine rooms, but it was not a waste.


    The ce where the tip of Sihael’s nose touched was arge cushion that I personally hand-picked.


    Instead of a bed, I chose to put a cushion there because I was afraid that he’d break it while runningaround. But I was d that he seemed to like it. I was pleased to see himnudgingthe cushion with his nose and scratching it with hispaws.


    “My Lady, what should I do with this?” It was the muzzle that Sihael wore.


    I forgot about it because it had been a while since I left it out. I was toozy to remove it and put it backonevery time I gave him food.


    “Shall we put it backonnow?”


    I shook my head when I saw his free mouth. Hehadnever escaped from the cage, so it should be fine. I feltguiltyfor shootinghim withan anesthetic gun to putonthe muzzle.


    “No, wash him and dry him up. I’ll take him out for a walkter.”


    “W-Walk?”


    “Yes, we can’t always keep him locked up here.”


    If he didn’t attack me right now, then I would take him for a walk right away.


    As if contemting, Marina mumbled and mouthed something.


    However, she eventuallybackeddown without saying anything.


    This was why I liked viinesses.


    Even though my reputation was in shambles, I was satisfied because no matter what I did, no one dared to question me.


    “Oh, by the way, make a leash and a name tag. His name is Shasha. Have his name and address engraved on the back, and put a location tracking function.”


    “That much?”


    “Yes, because there are people whowouldwant what’s mine.”


    “Shall I kill them?”


    Marina, no mattermuch of anelite assassin you are…


    The opponent is the Empress. Your head would be chopped off before you could even approach her.


    I shook my head. Although I was forced to take care of the male lead, I had no intention of handing him over to theEmpress.


    ‘I have to raise him safely and then hand him over to the female lead.’


    Although he was really annoying, I had developed a soft spot for him. He was just a little puppy who threw a fit and had a terrible attitude.I didn’t want him to suffer because of the Empress’s hand.


    Feeling a gaze directed at him, Sihael hit the cage with his front paw.


    Boom!


    At the heavy sound, the servant, who was filling the bowl with water, hesitated andretreated.


    “Why are you angry again?”


    My nose twitched as I wondered what he was so dissatisfied with that he started behaving rudely again.


    I didn’t want to see Sihael get hurt, so I removed the magic from the cage. Just when I finished, Sihael looked very excited.


    I spoke quietly, looking straightintoSihael’s gleaming golden eyes.


    “Shasha, I’m your temporary owner for now, okay? You can’t behave rudely.”


    “Grrrrrrr!”


    “It’s no use doing that.”


    “Woof, woof! Grrr. Arf, arf!”


    As expected, Sihael rebelled violently.


    The sound was so loud that people clutched their ears when he barked.


    Marina used her Spirit of Sacrifice to cover my ears, but I gently pushed her hands away. For me, this was a level of noise I could tolerate.
