"Woof!"

The adorable little puppy jumped out of the portal and flew towards Adam. The youth was astonished to see this creature come at him.

His lips widened in elation, but before he could even speak a word, the puppy landed on his face and started fondly licking him.

Valerian, who was lazily lying down beside the youth, suddenly raised his head and saw the newcomer. Then, his eyes widened in surprise. "Blackie!"

The young dragon hurriedly got on Adam's lap and then jumped toward Blackie, hugging him warmly. The puppy patted Valerian's head and nodded from time to time as if he were a senior inspecting his junior's progress.

"Blackie, did the old man send a letter?" Adam asked nervously.

It had been more than two months since he had written Berger a letter. But ever since then, he hadn't received a reply yet. This caused him to be filled with anxiety, wondering if something had happened to the gnome.
