"Hey, you remember me, boy?" Ivan approached Rex, who was sleeping outside.
Rex opened his eyes and raised his head, then barked at the big man.
"You're bored because your master is sick and can't play with you, huh?" Ivan rubbed the animal's body. "Just a moment, okay. After the rice is cooked, I'll take you to play."
Rex didn't fight back at all. The dog was originally from Acornhull, after all.
Leva walked over to Ivan, leaned her back against the wall, then said. "This really surprised me. Someone like you can cook and likes animals."
A chuckle escaped Ivan's mouth. "Shouldn't someone like me be good at cooking and love animals?"
"Seeing your ferocity in the arena, I never imagined you would be like this."
