"Alpheus…"

"Yes, Sir!"

"Did you just go full on French Revolution to the other dogs in that daycare?"

"What is French Revolution, Sir?" Alpheus asked obliviously. It was the first time for him to hear that words.

"… French Revolution is basically when you topple the ruling class of a country and take over as the new ruler with a different kind of governmental system," Cha Junshik explained briefly and tried to be as simple as possible for Alpheus.

"Ah, that dog named Boss Husky said that they are ruled with democracy and voting, Sir! But since I have defeated him and taken over the throne, I already changed it to aristocracy, with only me as the de facto king! Arf! Arf!" Alpheus\' wagged his pomeranian tail joyfully, knowing that he had toppled a domain of dog daycare as his first conquest.

…

"I thought you lived in the forest. How come you suddenly waged war like that? Forest life is very peaceful. Right?"

"Um, no, Sir! Alphie has lived in the forest since I was just a pup. My parents left me with my Uncle, while my Uncle wants me to learn how to survive alone," Alpheus said. "So I survived by killing a colony of jungle fowls first, since they\'re easy to kill and can be a good source of protein daily. Though, I don\'t eat much until I grow up and become a big wolf."

"Then, after I grew up to be a teenager like this, I challenged the king of the forest, a giant silverback gorilla!" Alpheus\' eyes looked up as if trying to reminisce all the good times. "Um, I bit his neck in front of his big colony and then started torturing him in front of them by eating his guts first until his stomach was empty. I can still remember how his gorilla wives and friends were begging me to at least let him die in peace! But Alphie wants to make a statement, so I continued until his guts were empty and hung him upside down!"

…

"And after that day, Alphie becomes the new king of the forest! Anyone who dares to challenge me will meet a cruel death! Arf! Arf!"

"Aren\'t you afraid the offspring of those you\'ve killed will kill you later?" Junshik asked.

"Um, that\'s what I want, Sir! When they come to me and want to kill me, usually they have trained daily for better physiques, and their bodies are pumped with adrenaline. It makes the blood sweeter and the meat to have a perfect texture!"

…

\'I shouldn\'t have asked,\' Cha Junshik regretted following his curiosity. Day by day, he continues to ruin that cute image of a cute and timid pomeranian dog in my head. How come someone could have two polarizing images of himself? One image is cute, timid, and oblivious Alphie and the other image is Alpheus the cruel beast, conqueror, and now a tyrant as well?\' Cha Junshik thought in his heart.

He looked at Alpheus, who was proud of his achievement. Maybe it was something from his land since he said he was a Crown Prince. Something like war shouldn\'t be unfamiliar for him.

But, this was his house, and he didn\'t want Alpheus to act unscrupulously around him. He needed to show dominance.

Cha Junshik grabbed Alpheus\' neck so suddenly and raised him until his small feet couldn\'t touch the windowsill. Alpheus looked curious, but there was no fear in his eyes.

"Sir? Is there something you want to talk about? Did I do something wrong?"Alpheus asked obliviously.

Cha Junshik tightened his hand around Alpheus\' pomeranian neck, but not enough to actually choke him. Alpheus didn\'t feel pain, but he wondered why Sir Junshik Hyung looked so serious.

"Listen, Alpheus. You may be a conqueror who likes to wage war in your homeland, but I am the ruler in this place. I am your king, remember that."

"Arf! Of course, Sir! You\'re my king in this domain! Alphie will serve you until I can return back to my forest freely!" Alpheus wagged his tail again. He was so happy that Sir Junshik Hyung allowed him to stay and serve him. At least that meant he could stay here for an indefinite amount of time until the situation in his world had been cleared and Uncle opened the portal for him again.

Cha Junshik sighed and put Alpheus on the windowsill again while cooking. He did that because he felt threatened by Alpheus\' presence.

He knew that Alpheus was an obedient dog, but who would know about the future? Maybe Alpheus went full-on beast mode and devoured him as his snack.

That was why he needed to assert dominance to Alpheus, making sure the dog knew who was the boss in this household—or domain, that what he liked to refer it.

Cha Junshik made a good meal for both of them. Since Alpheus loved rare meat the most, he made a steak for him, but with wine to give it a mellow taste and made the meat more tender.

Alpheus stuck out his tongue, salivating when he saw the steak cooked by Sir Junshik Hyung.

Honestly, that portion of steak wasn\'t enough for him in his real form in his original world. But since his power had been reduced to more than 80% for an unknown reason, then he could eat less.

Though, he missed eating that baby fawns called the Bambis.

Cha Junshik saw Alpheus was drooling while looking at the steak that he had just plated, so Junshik dipped his finger inside the steak to get the juice and then put his finger on Alpheus\' tongue for the dog to taste.

Alpheus\' eyes sparkled as he licked the delicious juice in Sir Junshik Hyung\'s hand. It was tasty, but for some reason, it became even tastier since he could also lick Sir Junshik Hyung\'s finger.

"Okay, that\'s enough, you can eat this steak—OUCH!" Cha Junshik winced in pain when Alpheus suddenly bit his finger!
