When he first heard that Yoon Seo-on was a variant species, and even when he learned that it was a puppy and not a wolf, he hadn’t been curious about what the true form looked like.390714e83662d606

It was only after 009b5e4b04 Seo-on drank and revealed ab2fbd5431 his ears and tail a3bcd4f25e that he wondered what b7f1707db7 kind of puppy had eca92d902f droopy ears. But he d49b64c913 never imagined 924dd2542c it would 6d0605589b be a 8dad539f36 large breed 74123715c6 puppy.3fa76bd41ac0ce96

Well, it would be stranger for a small dog to be born among wolves. Even if a different species was born from the parents, it was like how a dolphin wouldn’t be born from a wolf couple.cdc7d1a2eb10b2f4

Still, since 77211c294c he was e08554f75a smaller than 33efae1d5f his other 1a25edb4a1 siblings, he e428e0b430 thought his 8b7423c687 true form fed21d9d16 would be cab7162b32 small too, c8a243a861 but that a5d6cb9f3a was a 68e9bc6c21 complete misjudgment.fe04603b81d04847

Of course, to Dokwon’s eyes, Seo-on seemed small no matter how large a breed he was. Even though Seo-on’s true form was nearly 10kg, it was an extremely light weight for him to lift with one hand because it was much smaller than an adult.e52de1a2648fb346

The man, looking down at the round head, stopped in front of Seo-on’s bedroom. The door was wide open, allowing him to see inside without entering. Seeing clothes strewn on the bed, he guessed Seo-on had transformed into his true form while sleeping.87ab35000c4d6102

He didn’t seem that stressed.10fc6a1a30cfee6e

Reverting to their true form didn’t mean losing human reasoning. They became a bit more animalistic and instinctive, but their core remained the same.a4b8cbac02f69e9b

Above all, he had no experience playing with puppies. Animals often sharpened their vigilance based on a person’s species, so it was absurd for a puppy or cat to cling to him, asking to play, given that he belonged to the predator category.0af71952f742da1c

He reached out his hand towards Seo-on. While he needed to control his strength, throwing a ball wasn’t difficult. Moreover, his house, like most others, was finished to prevent slipping, so Seo-on wouldn’t strain his legs even if he ran around in his true form.0dcbe645224cc6bb

Moving slowly into the bedroom, the man pulled Seo-on’s carrier outside. Inside the open carrier were a sky-blue frisbee, a rope-shaped toy, a rugby ball-shaped rubber ball, and a worn-out rabbit doll.6181bc9da83adb7f

The man, who had taken out the frisbee, lightly threw the toy with some force. However, contrary to expectations, the puppy didn’t run to catch the frisbee. Instead, it stubbornly circled around Dokwon, holding the ball that made one cheek bulge.98d7051794957418
