Blackie, let's bathe!"

"Princess, you must dry your hair."

I ran to Blackie ignoring Lilly who I always listened to.

I felt refreshed after my night bathe. I wanted to bathe together with Blackie but I couldn't because Lilly said I couldn't. She said bathing with a pet (divine animal in truth) was not acceptable.

That is why I had to wait until she allows it.

Now, Blackie. It's your turn!

Huh? But Blackie who was here on my bed a while ago was missing. Where did he go?

However it wasn't once Blackie hid from me. So I had some idea where he went.

I knew it. I spotted Blackie's black tail not too long after searching.

"Found you, Blackie!"

I went close to the bed by the window and crouched down.

"Princess, its dirty!"

Lilly panicked at my actions but I was busy playing with Blackie.

You're too cute. Whose divine animal are you that you are this cute and lovely. Blackie revealed his face at my aegyo. The eyes golden like a coin stared at me.

Euk. No, if you look at me like that, my heart will! I breathed almost getting a heart attack. Blackie being curious on what I was doing was also too cute.

"Let's get Blackie all clean and shiny."

"Kyuu."

Even without a bath, Blackie was shiney and clean but since he played with me outside actively, I think he needs to be washed. Of course Blackie hated being washed so it was a work washing him.

"Good Blackie. Now stay sti.... Ack!"

"Qing!"

Today too as always, I had to activate all my muscles on washing him. Lilly sighed watching me in hardship.

"That is why I told you that I could wash him. You're all wet again."

"I'm fi- pffft!"

Just then, Blackie shook his tail and got me all wet. Why does Blackie hate water so much? He's not a cat. It's like me who avoided deep depth water for a while after falling in the lake before.

"Blackie, let's eat now."

Lilly seemed to have given up seeing me still having fun with Blackie. But did our Blackie possess only average cuteness! No! Lilly smiled as she watched me play with Blackie.

"Our Blackie is good at finishing his food. Good boy."

What Blackie was eating right now was fresh fruits from Obelia. We tried to feed him animal food that Lilly brought a few times but he refused to eat and threw them all over the place. It was the same even if we tried to feed him cat and dog's favourite treats.

We all knew he liked chocolate from the first day but Lilly and Felix were concerned not knowing if feeding an animal chocolates were an okay thing to do.

But probably because he was a divine animal, he didn't get sick or got any other impact. Well of course because if he did get sick and stuff, he wouldn't have ate all of my chocolates in the first place!

Anyways it is fortunate he eats fruits but it seems like he is choosing sweeter ones to eat. Can a divine animal be this picky about food?

"Lilly, Lilly. What species do you think our Blackie looks similar to?"

I asked Lilly as I didn't know well of animals in Obelia.

"I wonder. Probably either Baum or Raphy."

Lilly seemed to be thinking hard as Blackie didn't look too much like anything. I wondered too biting Obelia's special purple apple.

It looks like that dog, that dog specie. What was it again? Po.... Po.... Pome....

"Ah!"

Right, right! Pomeranian! He looks like a Pomeranian !

"What's wrong?"

"Eheheh. Nothing."

I can't believe this cutie is my divine animal! Uh huh, cute, so cute. kiss kiss kiss!

"You are going to visit his majesty tomorrow, right. It's been a while."

You're right. It was heaven these days playing with Blackie. Sob sob.

"It's time to go to bed. Say bye bye to Blackie."

"Hiing. I wanted to play more."

I was watching Blackie licking his front leg, already finished his food and Lilly picked and took him out.

I lied down on my bed seeing Blackie seeming to enjoy being in Lilly's arms.

"Daaaad!"

I started to run like an excited puppy when I saw Claude. Eek, it's a bit awkward since it's been a while since I acted this scene.

"Did daddy miss me?"

He just moved his eyes emotionlessly, when I came running to him. Claude was on his throne when I came in as always.

If it was long ago, I would be scared at his aura but right now I knew exactly what kind of emotions he was in.

Are you sleepy? It's been a while since you saw lovely and cute me but sleepy? You feel like sleeping right now? And after YOU called me over?

But from Felix I heard Claude could get maximum 4 hours of sleep a day so it was reasonable why he was sleepy. Being an emperor isn't a easy thing now is it? I thought they would just be relaxing and chilling but I guess not.

"Your majesty, Since today has a great weather, why don't you go out for a walk?"

Felix seemed to have felt it too and asked. Walking was good for me, but I wasn't focused on that because I was interested on something else over there. I glimpsed it every little moment I could.

"Walk. Not bad."

... That throne is just too pretty. How much would I get if I sold it?
