After being bathed by Sejun without a drop of water left on him, Theo felt refreshed and happy. Even though he had taken a bath, his fur remained fluffy. There would be no more occasions for Chairman Park to see his wet fur!

“Meow meow meow!”

After the bath, Theo, clinging to Sejun’s lap, hummed a cheerful tune.

Then,

“I wonder where Cuengi is?”

Sejun, with Theo clinging to him, descended the fountain and headed towards the area where the young animals were snacking.

Cuengi had obviously rolled in the rice cake earlier, so Sejun intended to bathe him as well.

‘I should remove it before the rice cake hardens.’

Sejun arrived at the place where the young animals were snacking.

However,

“Why is the atmosphere like this?”

The atmosphere around the young animals felt strangely tense.

Moo…

There were five young Black Minotaurs, each about 3 meters tall, lying on the ground, and

Krueng!

Cuengi was roaring, fists raised, in front of them.

Behind Cuengi, there were several frozen baby rabbits and a crying young Black Minotaur about 1 meter tall.

‘Did our Cuengi do this?’

In a flash, an image played in his mind of Cuengi tormenting the other animals, and the five Black Minotaurs trying to stop him.

Sejun wondered if he had spoiled Cuengi too much, but he had never known Cuengi to strike first. The Cuengi he knew was a very kind and not the first to start a fight.

‘No way! Our Cuengi wouldn’t do that!’

As Sejun solidified his belief in Cuengi,

Krueng!

Cuengi snatched a steamed corn from the hand of the fallen Black Minotaur.

“What?! Did he steal their snack?”

Sejun’s trust in Cuengi began to waver instantly. It was indeed a very fragile trust.

Then,

Krueng!

Cuengi handed the stolen steamed corn to the crying baby Black Minotaur.

“Ah!”

Then Sejun understood the situation. The older Black Minotaurs tried to take food from the younger one, so Cuengi intervened and scolded them.

“Hehehe. Our Cuengi is awesome.”

A proud Sejun chuckled.

The baby Black Minotaur who received the steamed corn looked at Cuengi with eyes full of admiration. Receiving such admiring gazes, Cuengi approached the fallen Black Minotaurs.

Then,

Krueng!

The enlarged Cuengi helped them up and shared snacks from his snack pocket.

Krueng!

As the saying goes, you get closer through fights; Cuengi and the Black Minotaurs quickly became friends. It was a heartwarming scene fit for a children’s comic.

“Hehehe. Whoever raised him did a good job.”

Sejun looked at Cuengi with satisfaction.

Then,

Krueng!

Spotting Sejun, Cuengi ran towards him.

And,

Krueng! Krueng!

[Cuengi’s snack pocket is empty! Cuengi will fill it up from Dad’s storage!]

Cuengi boldly requested to take food from Sejun’s storage. Hmm… Cuengi was certainly not an attacker, but why couldn’t Sejun shake off the feeling that he was?
