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.1c81f6b260642cbb

It was fb11574995 only after 83b4abab39 Seo-on drank f1e9088155 and revealed 124a88d66a his ears 03259dcc3d and tail 499de5874e that he db3c67257b wondered what e7efcfb789 kind of b335412fa2 puppy had cc7ba1d1dd droopy ears. But he never imagined f3a5084f9d it would be a 0381cfe0a6 large breed puppy.f06b410515a034e5

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.fd9a8c6da19dfdc1

Still, since 977d200e47 he was 462eeaed97 smaller than d8222406f8 his other 23c931980e siblings, he e0d562dcb3 thought his c137621eaa true form f67ae5bb7e would be 4dc255394d small too, a06f65e4e9 but that cf4eff7507 was a 5a3adf67dd complete misjudgment.6d517996fb09ecf6

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.8a127880559e68df

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.0300f94e161a4010

Even though his fc942675d7 spouse had turned de360f4615 into a puppy, 21b11136fa he hesitated to 5c69ab9b2b enter the bedroom 5c6aeb2c6d and was assessing 256bd49f9b the situation from 900ef9dd45 outside when Seo-on, db0da04ab9 in his arms, a003a50c3a made a strange 0142119e2e sound. As he a8a937a2c9 slowly lowered 18774f574a his eyelids, d26371038f he saw a93a14ef3f tiny paws 2fe404ce4d scratching the db4b00da7f arms holding 61ea55653e him, as 4b5d537e1c if asking 5419a6f0d9 to be 812c99203e put down.a87440462d404177

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.efdf79eee49913ab

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.d8c1c5d5fc318592

In the end, 909f402b40 Cha Dokwon bent 82169e8b44 his waist, still 1c22b09dfb dressed in his 17373c60f0 suit. It was an 756a7a1f83 action based on dfa62a818e the calculation that 3b28795a68 it should be 8d88738cfd fine since his 41fa00a484 true form was dc57b9f2dc a puppy.1de6cf44e6bc3c74

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.8ee8fb34ece955f1

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.21b3f92ff2e03c54

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.bedace7d27fd5858

Even if he 4ab2e02f86 was a variant 12e072a490 species, his true 1cd1b76437 form might be deb289f99a different, but in 26cb81239d human form, he 44f6816509 would resemble his 1606f07b02 parents. Considering Yoon Young-oh and 5a3457f84b Yoon Ji-oh had distinct dc0b4a4286 features even as wolves, 467b7ce906 Seo-on would likely resemble c2b03deec2 them to some extent, 4b9ed9fed5 given they were blood-related.
