What should I do? What should I do?

I just have to be careful.

Without thinking much, I put the absolute hypnosis device into my sternum and followed them.

“You mustn’t spill it, okay?”

Nod nod.

I felt Ravi nod between my chest.

Okay, that should be fine.

“Let’s go!”

***

Perhaps because the Heart Territory believed in the goddess of love, it was a bit more open than other cities.

No, that doesn’t mean there are people walking around the streets selling rice cakes.

just….

“Selling a dildo the size of your lord for 1000 gold!”

“Young-ae, 95% of your appearance has been reproduced!”

They’re just a few… strange people.

“… No matter how much I think about it, the people here don’t seem to be Jeongsangsangs.”

“It’s amazing that it took you 3 days to find out that fact.”

I knew it in a minute.

Karin scratched her head at my words.

“Because there are so many weird people… .”

“Um… That’s true.”

Because it’s a night game.

Well, I guess it can’t be helped, right?

… I think this is more influenced by religion than anything else.

No, really, you can sell something like that without getting caught?

Do the city people here possibly have a replica of the genitals of each of the lords?

“… What on earth is this proxy thing that makes us stay here for a week?”

Lisa asked a very sharp question.

“I’m sorry, it’s because of me… .”

“Huh? No, I’m not blaming Asia specifically.”

Now that I think about it, I feel a bit sorry.

To make you wait in a space like this for a week.

“Is it because of religion? There are a lot more adult stores here than anywhere else.”

“Want to come in?”

“Huh? Okay… No, that, that can’t be!”

Let’s take a quick look. Serena waved her hand in confusion.

“Haha, you’re being dishonest.”

“Oh, no!”

We walked around the street for a while, teasing Serena whose face was bright red.

Hmm… there are a lot of people.

“Woof! Woof!”

“Oh my, it’s a dog.”

Suddenly a dog ran out from the alley and barked at us.

“Oh, sorry! My dog has a habit of barking at strangers… .”

“Okay, it’s okay.”

I was a little surprised, but I guess that can happen.

The owner quickly apologized to us and passed on.

“It’s my first time seeing a pet.”

“Asia… .”

Huh? Why are you looking at me with such pitiful eyes?

“Oh, no! I’ve never seen it around here!”

I’ve raised pets too!

…like a goldfish.

“Well, that’s true. They’re expensive, so they’re usually not raised.”

“Huh? Really?”

Lisa said as if it was a given.

“Huh? Isn’t that obvious? Unlike other livestock, pets are not practical, so unless you have the means, there’s no need to raise them by feeding and housing them.”

“I see, that’s true.”

Well, it’s different from raising cows or horses.

“I’m jealous.”

“Huh?”

At that moment, someone’s muttering voice was heard in the alley.

I glanced over and saw someone crouching in the alley, staring blankly ahead.

“I want to raise a dog too.”

It didn’t seem like it was specifically talking to us.

Um… Am I the only one without a dog or something?

Actually, I really wanted to raise a cat too.

“Asia? What are you doing?”

“Oh, I’ll go!”

But he’s an extra anyway.

There’s no need to worry about it.

Surely it’s not a sub-quest or something?

I followed them, trying to picture his appearance in my head just in case.

And nothing happened that day.

***

“It was a needless worry.”

Ravi was quietly holding the absolute hypnosis device in my chest, and even if I dropped it, there was no way they would know how to use it if I didn’t know how to use it.

Just pretend you don’t know anything and ask them to give it back.

If that doesn’t work out, you can just use your charm to get it.

With that mindset, I went out onto the streets the next day too.

Yesterday we walked around together just in case, but today I didn’t do that because I felt confident.

While I was casually glancing around the adult goods store and thinking about going in, I found myself in the same alley I had been in yesterday.

By the way, a dog suddenly ran out here yesterday.

Be careful, it would be bad if we bump into each other…

“Woof! Woof!”

“Whew!”

bang!

… we collided without fail.

As expected, this feeling never goes wrong.

I slowly backed away as I saw the dog barking at me as if it was going to lunge at me while lying on its haunches.

Pfft!

“Wow!”

“Oh, Happy! Sorry, sorry! Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Yes, yes… .”

The owner apologized to me as he had yesterday and pulled at the dog’s leash.

“I’m sorry! I’m so sorry!”

“Okay, it’s okay… .”

I’m telling you to carry it a little better.

I wanted to snap at him like that, but being the good guy I am, I decided to hold back.

“Whew… Ravi, the hypnosis machine is fine… Hey.”

I asked Ravi, placing a hand on my chest, but he wasn’t there.

Did you just spill it?

When I turned my gaze, I saw Ravi running towards the absolute hypnosis machine that was rolling around.

“Ah, pick it up quickly!”

Tadadot!

Ravi ran to pick it up, but… unfortunately, humans were faster at picking it up than dolls.

“What is this?”

“Ah, ahh… !”

Ouch, we’re in trouble!

The man who had been mumbling about wanting to raise a puppy yesterday was sitting in the same spot again today.

He tilted his head as he looked at the long stick that had rolled toward him.

Boom boom boom!

“Huh?”

He looked at the doll jumping around in place to listen to my commands, then looked at me.

“Is this yours?”

“Yes, yes!”

Okay, it’s okay.

As long as you don’t get caught for what this is, there’s no problem… .

“What is this? It looks really strange.”

“Ah, ah… That, it’s nothing special… It’s kind of important… Could you, give it back to me?”

“Hmm… .”

He held it and turned it around as if it was a wonder.

Dad, give it back quickly!

“Okay, here.”

He handed me the hypnosis device without thinking.

You want me to come?

Anyway, you’re being cheeky!

But I was in a hurry, so I had no choice but to approach him and just as I was about to hand him the hypnosis device, I heard him mumbling absentmindedly.

“Haa… I want a cute puppy too.”

Flash!

“Huh?”

oh….

I was exposed to the light coming from the end of the hypnosis device, and I accepted it and immediately placed my hand on the floor.

“Wow!”

“… Huh?”

***

“… Huh? Why am I on all fours… .”

“Oh, is this how you write it?”

Huh? What, what is it?

Knock knock!

Ravi grabbed my arm urgently.

“, become a puppy!”

Flash!

“Huh?”

Oh my… isn’t that an absolute hypnosis machine?

Why is that guy… .

“Woof woof!”

***

“Asia, what’s wrong?”

“Umm… I don’t really remember what I did today.”

That’s weird.

I’m sure I went to the city, but for some reason my memory is vague.

“Really? We ran into each other earlier.”

“Huh? Was that so?”

I tilted my head at Lisa’s words.

Was that so?

“Yeah, I was thinking about something. What was it?”

“… Did I buy something?”

I?

I opened the item window just in case, but there wasn’t anything special.

Hmm… There’s nothing particularly strange?

My amulets, potions, status recovery items… and dog collars and puppy ears… .

“I didn’t buy anything in particular.”

“Really? Am I mistaken?”

Lisa didn’t seem to have looked closely either, so she quickly passed over it.

“Are you going out tomorrow too?”

“Tomorrow? Of course!”

Thud thud!

“Ouch! What’s wrong, Ravi?”

Ravi, who was buried inside my chest, kept hitting my chest.

Why is this happening?

I tried to calm him down, but strangely enough, he just wouldn’t calm down.

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom.

“Huh?”

what?

I don’t know why they walk on all fours and imitate animals.

I picked up Ravi, who was acting strangely, and put him back in my chest.

Busy busy.

“Hey… Stay still!”

Kook.

Phew, I’m in.

Karin, who had been watching him bickering with me for a while, asked again.

“What’s wrong with Ravi?”

“I don’t know.”

Everyone was curious, but no one thought it was important enough to ask any further questions, so they didn’t say anything more.

Well, I agree with that.

I guess there are times when you just want to go wild.

“So what are you going to do tomorrow?”

When Lisa asked, I answered immediately without any hesitation.

“Let’s go for a walk!”

***

And the next day, I arrived at the alley right on time for the appointment.

Let’s see… The dog collar is on, and the puppy ears are on well, right?

Okay, okay.

After feeling it with my hand for a moment to check the texture, I sat down quietly and waited.

And after a while.

Thud thud.

“Oh… I really came?”

Finally he showed up.

“Hey, can you give me that first?”

He bent down and extended his hand to me.

Oh, is this it?

I happily placed my hand over his.

“No, no! Not that!”

“Kkiing… .”

Isn’t this it?

He pointed to my mouth.

Aha, this is it!

I put down the hypnosis device that was in his hand.

“Joe, okay… with this… .”

My new master snickered as he held up my hypnotic device.

“Then shall we go for a walk, Puppy?”

“Wow!”

I lowered my head and placed the rope attached to my collar in his hand.

Quick, quick walk!
