Chapter 126: Black Rust (3)
Plop-! Plop-!
I wandered around the Sehee Research Institute because my old friend, Boredom, finally decided to pay me a visit again. It’s been a while, so I figured, why not?
I was hoping to find some shiny new Objects to play with, but nope, nothing new. How disappointing!
Did they make so much money selling my adorable figures that they just gave up on researching cool new things?
Then, something caught my eye—a familiar, glittering kennel. Ooh, sparkly! It was even bigger and shinier than the last time I saw it. Inside, the ‘Cute Puppy’ was zipping around, full of energy.
The researchers at the institute were scrambling around it, looking all serious and stressed out. Hehe, they were totally on edge.
I hadn’t been able to visit much lately, so the Cute Puppy must’ve missed me. It seemed so happy, prancing around with that smug look on its face, like it owned the place. Huh…? it had become all docile, but now it was all bossy and stuff!
Curious, I slipped into the containment room in my phantom form. And wow, the doggie had grown so big! It was like a mountain now!
I guess its ego grew just as much, because it barked at me like, “How dare you enter my room!”
It was a bark that seemed to have that kind of meaning behind it.
Hah! Silly puppy~ Oh! It seems it didn’t completely forget me! As soon as it saw my face, it started shrinking until it was just the size of my palm.
Then, it flopped down on the floor, looking up at me with those big, bright eyes and let out the cutest little whine.
Nice try, Puppy, but even though you are cute, you’re still a bipedal creature!
