I sat up happily.
I tried to encourage myself to be happier, but I was still very sad.
Akuraba Of Goguryeo was dead, but I would rather be the only one who was dead.
Because I would go to the next world.
But if he died, he would really lose his life.
I felt extremely heavy, and I curled myself into a ball in frustration.
Even if the world in front of me was the modern society I always wanted, it couldn't arouse any positive emotions in me.
After encouraging myself for a while, I was a little bit happier.
I stood up and prepared to explore this new world.
I hoped that this world would let me find a way to use my power. As I thought so, I saw a black-haired man.
A man in a gorgeous Tang suit walked past me.
Oh, it seemed that this was China.
I took two steps in the opposite direction and saw a dessert shop and a bunch of foreigners.
… Wait,
Tang suit,
Chinese man,
Foreign country,
Dessert shop?
Did he think of something?!!!
At that moment, I turned around and ran in the direction that the Chinese man had just walked past. It didn't take long for me to see a place marked Zhonghua Street.
LUCKY！ The leader was right. Whenever misfortune comes, there must be great luck hidden behind it!
Me! Forever! I like Count D! My pets!
I plunged into Zhonghua Street.
I grabbed a passerby and asked, "Is there a pet shop here? Can you please tell me where it is? "
"You mean Count D's pet shop? It's one more street ahead. "
Wow, wow, wow, wow!
My previous life,
I must have saved the Milky Way! I want to live in this world forever!
I carried a little heart that was beating wildly.
I floated in the direction that the person pointed to me. My mind was full of the scene of a winner in life with a nine-tailed fox on the left and a Taotie on the right, surrounded by a group of cats, dogs, tigers, leopards, pythons, rabbits, birds of paradise, phoenixes, and red dragons.
When I was a child, I read the comic "Pet Shop of Horrors". I thought that all pet shops were like this, so every time I wrote an essay, I would have to open a pet shop in the future as my ultimate dream.
But reality slapped me in the face!
The pet shop in reality was not like that at all! Not to mention the Qilin Red Dragon, there wasn't even a fox!
I, who knew the truth, was so angry that I screamed!
I hopped around happily and finally saw Earl D's pet shop on the side of the road. It was shining with golden light!
We're here! My little babies!
From today onwards, even if I die, even if I am eaten, even if I become pet food, I will still be with you!
I reached out and knocked on the door. When I heard the heavenly voice from inside, I happily pushed the door open.
"Sorry to bother you!" I asked cheerfully, "Excuse me, do you accept workers? The kind that provides food and lodging but not a salary?! "
Count D looked at me in surprise. He smiled awkwardly and refused. "I don't need a clerk."
I didn't hear what Count D was saying at all. As soon as I entered the pet shop, I was completely engrossed in all the animals in the shop. All the furry animals had struck a chord in my heart!
Wow, this place, this place is simply heaven!
"Miss? Miss? Are you okay? "
When I came back to my senses, I found that I was sucked to the side of an extremely beautiful cat. I buried my head in the cat's belly.
"Hurry, hurry up and pull me up! I'm already being sucked!"
Count D pulled me up and frowned. "I understand your love for animals, but I really don't need a clerk here …"
"But I've crossed the ocean to come to this strange and cold city. The deceit here has left me penniless, and I was almost kidnapped and sold. I'm so pitiful. Please take me in." I looked at Count D pitifully.
"If that's the case, I have an animal here …"
"No, I just want to work for you." I sat on the ground and hugged Count D's leg, pretending to cry.
"Guest, guest, please don't be like this."
Count D's distressed expression is so cute!
I will always like Count D's! His pet!
"Then let me work for you." I looked at Count D with starry eyes.
"I don't need a clerk here …"
"Then take me in. I have no home to return to!" I said shamelessly. I saw all the animals in the shop glaring at me fiercely, but I didn't care!
I am the successor of socialism! I am iron-headed and fearless!
If I die under a peony flower, I will be a romantic ghost!
Count D sighed and showed an expression of helplessness. "Then, then you can stay here for the time being. You can only sleep in the outer room …"
… I know you're like this. As long as there are no animals involved, you don't care, but … but is this really okay?!
"Also," Count D's troubled expression disappeared, and he smiled like a mannequin in the middle of the animals. "If anything happens, you will bear the consequences."
"Okay!" I happily shook Count D's hand. "Count, don't worry! I will definitely protect you and the little ones! "
Just like that, I successfully persuaded (forced) Count D to stay in his pet shop and live a life of walking cats and playing with dogs.
"Stop fighting." Count D watched helplessly as I rolled around on the ground with a group of cats and dogs. "It's time to eat."
"Ah? Ahhh? " I struggled to raise my head from the large group of animals. "Are you done? I can help you!"
"…" Count D didn't say anything and just looked at me like I was trash.
… I know my performance last time disappointed you, but I didn't do it on purpose. After all, I didn't do any household chores since I was young. I had to learn how to cook from scratch!
I looked at Count D pitifully. In the end, he said helplessly, "Okay, I want to eat red bean pancakes from Wishing Hall in the afternoon. Can you buy them for me?"
"No problem!" I jumped up happily with the fur of the cats and dogs hanging on my head. "Do you want to eat anything else? I'll buy them for you too ~ "
"No need, but do you know the way?"
… Oh! I don't know!
"Then let Little Q take you there." Count D raised Little Q and handed it to me.
I took Little Q in a daze. The moment I held the soft and furry body in my hands, I felt like I had entered sage time and my whole body was about to melt.
"Come back to your senses." Count D waved his hand in front of my eyes and puffed up his face. "You should go."
"Yes ~" I said softly and carried Little Q out of the pet shop.
On the way to buy desserts, I saw a ghost following a person. I spent some time convincing him that he was indeed haunted by a ghost. Then, I persuaded the ghost to leave and received a thank you fee.
With these green tickets in hand, I was filled with confidence and started to buy the desserts in Manwishing Hall.
"This Count should also like to eat … Aiya, Little Q, don't mess around." I didn't care about Little Q who was pulling my hair and continued to choose seriously. After half of the money on me was gone, I stopped buying in satisfaction. I took the desserts and brought Little Q back to Count D.
On the way back, I kept looking for people who would be haunted by something so that I could use my [Verbal Cannon] ability to send them to the sky and earn some money.
In the end, there was no one!
After feeling depressed for a while, I happily brought my spoils to the pet shop and opened the door happily.
"Clang clang clang clang!" I happily returned with the desserts and the small amount of money I earned. "Look, I earned money!"
"That's amazing." Count D happily took the desserts. "Now we can have afternoon tea."
"Yes! I bought other desserts for you. Also, I can buy whatever they like! "I lifted Little Raccoon who was squatting by Count D's feet." What do you want to eat, Little Fatty? ~ "
Little Fatty scratched my face with his claws.
I pinched Little Fatty's little hand. "Little Fatty, is there anything you want to eat? I'll buy it for you ~"
After listening to Little Q's explanation, Count D asked, "Are you a Onmyoji?"
"… This was taught to me by a friend of mine." I thought of Akuraba Of Goguryeo and felt depressed. "He taught me a lot of things, but he died in the end."
"What a pity." Count D put his hands together and sighed. "But since you have the means to make a living, shouldn't you …"
！！！
You're actually waiting for me here!
No, I'm not going to leave! Leaving is impossible!
"…" I was still too thin-skinned. After a long silence, I finally came up with a wonderful idea. "How about this, I'll also be a pet you want to sell!"
"…" Count D looked me up and down. "This is a legitimate pet shop. I don't buy or sell humans."
"Don't discriminate against humans!" I couldn't help but protest. "I'm also an animal! I'm also a primate! "
"And my IQ is even lower than an animal's! Why are you looking down on me?! "
Count D was speechless. "…"
I picked up a blade of grass and stuck it in my head. Then, I hugged Count D's leg and looked at him with tears in my eyes. "That's it! I'm also a homeless animal. Let me live here until you sell me, okay? "
"Count, I'm begging you. I can pay you." As I said that, I raised the small amount of money I just earned. "I, I'll make more money in the future …"
Count D helplessly covered his eyes and pushed away my hand. "Okay …"
I jumped up happily. "Then I'll go prepare afternoon tea. What do you like to drink? "
"Let me do it." Count D dejectedly snatched the teapot from my hand. "If it's you, you'll definitely make some weird tea and waste it."
"…!!!" I was so angry, but I couldn't refute him.
