You found a puppy on the battlefield.
The puppy was so young his teeth hadn’t even grown in properly. When he saw strangers, all he could do was put on a show and bare his teeth.
You didn’t think he was a threat. You just thought he was adorable.
So you took him home, washed him, put a collar on him, fed him, and taught him to shake hands and sit.
The puppy soon grew into a beautiful big dog. Whenever you took him out, people would gather around to look at him and praise him.
Someone asked how much you wanted for the dog. You smiled without answering, though you were already weighing up a fair price in your mind.
The puppy whimpered and nudged your palm with his head, saying he only wanted you to be his owner.
He was afraid you’d hand him over to someone else, so he tried every way he could to please you, even taking a shortcut by climbing into your bed.
You hadn’t originally thought of the puppy that way, but he was obedient, beautiful, and had a great figure, so you went along with it.
Then, later on, the puppy began to meddle in affairs of power, began purging your most capable subordinates, and began to turn against you.
You were furious, but you realized you had gradually lost the strength to fight the puppy.
So, with your subordinates’ help, you faked your death and fled, hoping to recover and make a comeback.
And then the puppy found you.
He grabbed you and kissed you, gazing at you with damp eyes.
He killed your subordinates, yet still complained to you as if he were the one who’d been wronged.
“How could you have other puppies?”
