I Was Adopted By A Dragon In Another World

usness at this point, but it looked sickly.
It looked extremely weak, and it struggled to get up when it heard some noise.
But when it saw Luya, it seemed relieved, and it laid back down, struggling to keep its eyes open as it stared motionlessly at her.

—Its eyes were just like a human’s.

Luya couldn’t help but be taken aback.
She didn’t know why she suddenly felt this way.
Perhaps it was because the Shiba Inu looked so pitiful, which contrasted sharply with his stubborn eyes that refused to show any weakness.

“Don’t worry, I brought back medicine.
You’ll have to thank the red dragon.
It saved both of us.”

As Luya chattered away at herself, she removed the cork of the healing potion, opened the dog’s mouth, and poured half of it in.

Perhaps since it knew that she was saving it, this disobedient dog was quite cooperative at this moment.
It did not resist, and it swallowed the medicine that Luya gave it.
Then it closed its eyes and fell asleep in exhaustion.

Hey, it was unexpectedly well-behaved.

Feeding it medicine was much easier than she expected.
However, she didn’t know how long it would take before the healing effect started.

Luya rubbed the Shiba Inu’s head and looked at its face seriously.

It was a crimson puppy with a beautiful coat, and it was prettier than 99% of other dogs.
She carefully examined the Shiba Inu’s butt, and… um, it wasn’t neutered yet.

If this were her original world, it could definitely be an internet celebrity dog if she posted it on social media.
It didn’t matter if its parents belonged to a pedigree, it would be expensive to breed one like this regardless.

It was such a pity, a real pity.
Right now she could only appreciate this dog by herself.

Luya shook her head.
As the dog slept, she put the collar she had purchased from Old Berg around its neck.

“Okay, starting from today, you are my dog.”

She announced seriously, “Since you were able to live in such harsh conditions, your name will now be Lu Dahuang.3”

With its eyes closed, it was unclear if the Shiba Inu had heard Luya’s words.
However, its body trembled for no reason.
Luya patted the dog’s butt in satisfaction, and then ran to look at the things that she had purchased.

The furniture and other large items wouldn’t be delivered until the next day.
Luya didn’t know how Old Berg would get monsters to come to the dragon’s lair for the delivery, and she prayed that it would work out somehow.
Fortunately, she had brought back all the important things herself.

She took out the Goblet of Aqua Pura from her bag, found a corner to put it down, and then took a few large earthworms out of their bottle.

Old Berg had said that these things could turn any infertile land into arable soil, suitable for planting.
The earth near the sulfur springs was completely barren, so she hoped that these little guys could change the environment here.

After those earthworms came out from the bottle, they went straight into the soil and disappeared.

Luya stared at the soil where the earthworms had burrowed themselves for a long time, but she did not see any changes in the soil quality.
She hadn’t been tricked by the shopkeeper, right?

Perhaps it wouldn’t be so fast…

She murmured and put the earthworms aside.
Tomorrow, she’d check on it again after she woke up.

She continued to examine the things that she bought.
She threw the living broom into the dragon’s cave, since it was supposed to be capable of automatically sweeping things.
Although the red dragon never voided in its own lair, it never cleaned it.
There was a thick layer of dust inside, and there were spider webs in the corners.
Even the gold in the treasure room was covered in ash.

The air quality was poor, and her nose always felt uncomfortable after sleeping for a night.
Fortunately, this body did not have allergies, but when she blew4 her nose, there was a lot of icky snot.
It made her uncomfortable, so it was time to clean up the dragon’s lair.

The first step to changing a living environment was to address the sanitary conditions.
In truth, she suspected that the red dragon did not clean itself very much.
When she rode on the dragon’s back, she noticed that its scales were caked with dust, a bit like a car had been driven in a city for a long time without cleaning.
Luya, who was a bit of a clean-freak, could not stand this.

Ai, maybe it was because it was a bachelor dragon.

So after struggling for a while, Luya finally mustered the courage and decided to move forward.

She took out a bucket and a brush from the cleaning supplies she bought, and went straight to the red dragon who was resting outside of the cave from fatigue.
She seriously and earnestly addressed the dragon: “Farus, I have a request!”

After hearing Luya’s voice, the red dragon who had been resting with its eyes closed suddenly sat up.
It raised its neck and stared at her, looking slightly puzzled.

Luya met the red dragon’s amber pupils with her eyes.
She took a deep breath and spoke loudly.

“Please let me give you a bath!”

Author’s notes:

I owe nearly four thousand words, but! No matter how much I owe, I will pay all off at once! I have enough saved that I can update up to ten chapters in a single day! It’s totally fine.

However, I probably won’t get that many, so there’s no need to panic.

Translator’s notes:

CEO-like (霸总): Like a handsome high-powered businessman. The collar and leash are two separate objects that exist as a pair. Lu Dahuang (路大黄): Last name first in Chinese.
Luya’s last name means “Road”.
Literally, first name means “rhubard”, which based on the sentence context, is a plant that can thrive in cool weather.
