The next day, when the sun was slowly rising, Reyhan felt a wet sensation on his face, as if something was licking him.
Half-conscious, Reyhan opened his eyes in surprise. But what he saw was a small dog licking his face.
The little dog, seeing that Reyhan had woken up, barked happily.
"woof-woof" — perhaps meaning (good morning, boss).
Of course, Reyhan didn't understand doglanguage, so he observed the puppy closely.
While observing the dog, which was about the size of a house cat, Reyhan remembered yesterday's "Egg" gift. Sure enough, the egg had hatched, and the eggshells were scattered all over the floor of his room.
"Hey, you're the animal that hatched from that egg, right?" Reyhan asked, pointing at the broken eggshells on the floor.
"Woof." The golden retriever puppy seemed to understand Reyhan's words, nodded slightly, and let out a soft hum.
Reyhan was a little surprised to see the dog nod. Then he asked, "If I'm not mistaken, you were called a guardian beast by the System, so are you strong? Come on, show me."
Hearing Reyhan's words, the little dog jumped off the bed. It then turned toward Reyhan, barking enthusiastically, and walked slowly out of the house.
Seeing the excited little dog, it looked like a child showing off. Reyhan got up and followed it outside.
.....
When Reyhan stepped outside the house, he was surprised to see a coconut tree, five meters tall, had filled the island.
"Damn, what happened here? Did the tree grow this fast? Is this the power of the super seed?" He exclaimed in shock, looking around the island.
The lush coconut trees added freshness to the previously hot and empty island. Each tree had dozens of coconuts hanging tightly on the clusters.
Without wasting time, Reyhan went back into the house to get a knife.
He even forgot about the little dog, making it pout and scratch at a coconut tree.
After returning with the knife, Reyhan picked a coconut and skillfully opened it. He had often seen how to open coconuts on YT.
Once the coconut water flowed out, he took a sip and was surprised, "Amazing, it tastes much better than any I've ever had. It's sweet and refreshing…"
"Woof," came a bark and a tug at his pants at the same time. Reyhan looked down to see the little dog staring at his hand with sparkling eyes.
More precisely, it was staring at the coconut.
"Hehehe, looks like you're a greedy dog too…" Reyhan teased the little one, then opened another coconut and gave it to the puppy in a bowl.
"Gulp… gulp… gulp…"
Man and dog sat under the coconut tree, enjoying the fresh coconuts together.
.....
After they each finished two coconuts, Reyhan finally remembered that he had planned to see the little one's strength.
So he patted the dog's head and said, "Come on, weren't you going to show me your strength?"
"Woof-woof." The lazy puppy seemed to have forgotten about it. After being reminded, it immediately stood up and jumped impatiently.
Man and dog walked together, unaware they had already grown very close to each other.
....
They arrived at the beach. Reyhan simply watched the dog, signaling for it to start with his arms outstretched.
"Woof!" The little one leapt joyfully.
Then Reyhan saw something he would never forget.
The little dog opened its mouth wide.
Then a bright red light ball rapidly grew to fill its mouth.
"BZZZZZZAAAAAAAHHHHHMMMMMM!!!"
Then, accompanied by an explosion and scorching heat in the air, the beam of red light blasted forward. The energy beam traveled an incredible distance in an instant, cutting through the air and the sea it passed, revealing a deep chasm.
The farther the beam went, the wider it became, until finally, after ten kilometers, it stopped as its energy was exhausted.
....silent...
It took several minutes for the stunned Reyhan to come to his senses.
Looking at the cute golden dog, no bigger than a cat—wagging its tail and gazing at him with clear eyes as if asking for praise—it doesn't look like something that could destroy a city.
Reyhan slowly crouched down to stroke its head. He felt very happy with the dog's strength. After all, no one knows what dangers are in this fantasy world, with this dog at least I have protection.
"Amazing. From now on, you will be my protector and the protector of this island," Reyhan praised it, giving the "dog" a job.
"Woof…" Rudy raised his head proudly and barked firmly like a soldier. Once again, it was just an ordinary bark in Reyhan's ears.
Seeing the obedient little dog, Reyhan decided to give it a name.
"Then, for now, I'll give you a name…"
"Woof…"
"Hmmm… Blacky?"
"Woof…"
"You don't like it? Then… Steven?"
"Woof."
"Agus?"
"Woof."
....
"…Rudy?"
"Woof!"
"OMG, you finally like that name!" Reyhan, who finally finished naming his dog, felt relieved. Out of the hundreds of names he mentioned, the dog didn't like a single one.
As for how he knew the dog liked it? Obviously, seeing it jumping around happily made it clear.
"Okay Rudy, please guard this island while I continue planting trees. If you see anyone coming, let me know."
There were still five hundred seeds left to plant. So Reyhan decided to plant them while there was no other work.
"Woof…"
