forest kingdom

The sixteenth year of the new calendar is spring.

Lawrence set out from Snow Mountain Castle and took four or five days to arrive outside the manor.

As soon as they approached the manor, Hayate smelled Lawrence's scent first and ran over from a distance.

"Wow~"

The giant black dog, which was 1.6 meters tall when squatting down, ran to Lawrence and squatted down, waving its thick tail on the nearby grass.

The bird-lizard beast Lawrence was riding subconsciously retreated, as if he was afraid of this beast.

Lawrence quickly got off the bird-lizard beast. The bird-lizard beast felt much more relaxed now that it was no longer burdened.

"Haifeng, it's great that you are the first to greet me every time I come here." Lawrence touched Hayate's head.

Hayate was so happy that he kept squealing in response to Lawrence's touch.

Lawrence withdrew his hand and walked towards the manor with Hayate and the large army behind him.

Hayate is still healthy and strong, and has a large group of offspring.

But like Pidge, Gale's descendants are obviously not as good as Gale.

Even if he eats and drinks enough, he still can't improve his physique.

The physique is only one aspect, the most important thing is that they are not as smart as Hayate.

These puppies are mainly used as communication dogs and military dogs. There are also a few obedient, honest and docile puppies sent to the monastery as pets. They only need to lazily bask in the sun every day and know how to eat by themselves.

A puppy that is too unruly and irritable will die if not even Hayate and the manor's dog trainer can correct it.

All the big dogs know this kind of thing, and so does Hayate.

Whether it is a manor, the Church of the Stars, or the Kingdom of the Stars, there is a set of rules for survival.

Those who do not comply with the laws of survival will be eliminated. This world has never been civilized. War, struggle and death are the norm.

Lawrence gave Hayate and his descendants enough kindness. Working dogs and pet dogs on the manor, whether they died of accidents or normal illnesses, could be dignified and buried in the soil instead of being skinned and eaten.

There is work, there is rest, there is enough food, and there are people to help treat you when you are sick.

This is also Hayate's home.

The wild nature brought by the ancient wolf king's blood in his body did not allow Hayate to return to nature.

It often goes to the forest to find food. There is nothing good there.

Hayate has been to many places, but the manor is more suitable for him.

The manor is both Lawrence's and Hayate's territory.

Gale is responsible for protecting this territory for Lawrence in exchange for a comfortable life here for himself and his descendants.

Compared to the group, Hayate prioritizes himself as Lawrence's dog, rather than the king of a group of dogs.

Because it was Lawrence who provided Blast with food, shelter, and a job, and even provided it with female dogs, not its own puppies that ate, drank, and barked all day long.

Especially after the death of his father Doug, Hayate's concept of home became increasingly thin, and he lacked recognition of the big dogs and puppies that were much smaller than him.

Only when meeting Lawrence can Hayate look happy and excited.

Lawrence didn't understand Hayate's world or how the dog viewed him.

After leading the wind to the hillside section in front of the manor, Lawrence heard the cry of Yubao.

Lawrence looked into the distance and saw a strange creature standing on the wall at the entrance of the manor, waving hello to this side.

"Baby Fish?" Lawrence looked over there in surprise, "How come it has hair? Is it golden?"

Yu Bao was not very beautiful to begin with. Today he was wearing a strange black cloak with crow feathers stuck to his body, a white skirt in front of him, and strange golden hair growing on his head.

Will the sea tribe grow hair? It seems that it will indeed...

Lawrence walked towards Yu Bao, who was already strange after not seeing him for a month.

It is true that the sea people have long hair, and they may also have long golden hair, but it is still strange that Yubao has long hair.

When Yu Bao saw Lawrence getting closer and closer, he shouted happily, holding the harpoon in one hand and maintaining a handsome standing posture.

Lawrence quickly walked to the wall and looked at Xiao Yubao standing at the top of the wall.

"Yu Bao, when did you grow hair?"

Lawrence still felt very sudden.

Before Yu Bao could speak, Sister Lana ran quickly from the door.

"Prophet!" Lana hurriedly greeted the prophet, and quickly revealed Yubao's outfit, "Yubao used the wig that the monastery was going to sell. Yubao will pay for it himself, and I will also help. Please forgive me. Yubao’s behavior is that he likes this wig so much that he doesn’t want to put it back.”

Lawrence finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "That's it, it doesn't matter."

After I found out it was a wig, it made more sense.

Lawrence looked at Yu Bao's strange appearance, smiled and said, "Yu Bao, you are not handsome or cute at all. When I have time, I will help you dress up again, okay?"

Yubao looked at Lawrence curiously, then looked down at his new clothes. He was actually very satisfied with it.

But after hearing what Lawrence said, Yu Bao felt that maybe Lawrence was more right.

"Suck~" Yu Bao still decided to trust the prophet's judgment.

Lawrence stretched out his hand to lift Yu Bao off the wall, "I still have a lot of things to do in the next few days. I will help you dress up after I finish the spring plowing. Are you and Lana still getting used to it here?"

"Xi~" Yu Bao replied very comfortably.

Lawrence handed the fish treasure to Lana, "That's good. I'm going to Ironforge to have a look. It's too hot there for you. You play with Lana first. Today I'll have dinner with the nuns here. You too."

Yubao said happily: "Xi~"

"Yes, Prophet!" Lana agreed happily.

Hayate on the side watched this scene, and soon he had a similar class division, knowing that Lana and that Yubao were slightly more important than the others.

In Hayate's eyes, it doesn't matter who is important in the manor, it just depends on how he gets along with Lawrence.

Being able to talk and laugh with Lawrence often is more important.

Being scolded by Lawrence is unimportant.

There is no contact with Lawrence, and it is not important. You can be more aggressive and bark at them more.

Those who often come into contact with Lawrence and don't talk much should be polite. These are our own people. Maybe we will have to rely on them in the future when we are guarding the dog bowl and waiting for dinner.

Hayate is the smartest dog here, probably smarter than most people.

In addition to Gale, there are also many smart dogs here, all of them are smart puppies brought out by Gale and Long-Legs Hall.

These dogs are not very powerful and no one expects them to fight. Their main tasks are to manage cattle, sheep, pigs and chickens, patrol, call the police, deliver letters, and pull sleds.

At this time, winter has passed, and the sled dogs and ordinary working dogs who have nothing to do are lying down and squatting in places out of the way, waiting for meals.

The kennel is a shared warehouse. Apart from the kennel, the only daily necessities for these dogs are probably dog ​​bowls. Every day when they eat, they will consciously carry the dog bowl to the back of the house to get their meals.

Only Hayate and a few working dogs will have dedicated meal delivery personnel delivering meals to them.

For all disobedient dogs, the biggest punishment is not being beaten, but having the dog bowl taken away before their eyes. That is a painful punishment that all dogs can feel.

Humans have human rules, and dogs also have dog systems and rules.

After more than ten years of comfort, not only the humans in the ice land have new systems and culture, but also the dogs in the manor. (End of chapter)
