Here’s the English translation of the Korean paragraph you provided, keeping the names and genders of the characters accurate and consistent:
“Human residents were initially cautious of me, but now they are pleased to know that I’m not causing harm; instead, I diligently tidy up Hadel’s surroundings.”
Most of all, since they were afraid of Hadel, there had not been a maid assigned to clean Hadel’s room, so I took on that task.
“[It’s pitiful that Lady Jokjebi is cleaning with those small hands and tail.]”
“[We should improve Lady Jokjebi’s working conditions.]”
They used grand words, but the cleaning tools they made were like cute doll props. It was evident from the ribbons attached to the apron and the broomstick being pink.
“They all know how cute I am.”
It was more convenient than doing it barehanded, so I was satisfied too.
I didn’t bother wearing the apron, and with the broomstick in hand, I diligently swept all over the room. Since it was a room used only by Hadel and me, there wasn’t much trash. Mostly, it was crumbs from the bread I had dropped, and bits of snacks.
“By this point, it feels like I’ve practically been hired as a maid here. Is Hadel still planning to turn me into a leather accessory?”
I intentionally ignored the fact that I was cleaning up my own mess. As I looked at the clean room, I smiled contentedly.
“Ah, what a satisfying morning. After working hard, breakfast will taste even better.”
As I thought that, the door opened, and a sweaty Hadel entered.
“You woke up early.”
“Kyu!”
I greeted Hadel. I also informed him proudly that I had collected the trash in here.
“Kyu-kyu! Kyu-kyu-kyu-kyu.”
“Emergency rations?”
“Kyuwoo!”
Trash, huh! I collected the crumbs I spilled.
“Do you know what could happen if I don’t clean this up? Giant bugs would appear.”
Do you know how scary bugs are?
As I continued to “kyu-kyu” at Hadel, he chuckled and patted my head with his palm.
“Just kidding. Thanks for your hard work.”
“Kyuwoong.”
From Hadel’s hand, which had held a sword, there was the smell of metal. I shrugged my shoulders.
Hadel had become better at smiling than before. Back then, I used to be surprised by Hadel’s smiling face, but recently, I could see it without much surprise.
“This is also thanks to me.”
What an excellent pet I had become. Cleaning the room and making the owner smile.
As I grumbled, Hadel smiled again and went into the bathroom with brisk steps.
From the bathroom, I could hear the sound of water splashing. In the meantime, I pushed Hadel’s shirt and pants, which were soaked with sweat, toward the door with my nose.
“Phew, I even collected the laundry. I feel like I’m becoming quite the amazing jokjebi.”
With my chest puffed out, feeling proud of myself for gaining one more task each day, I heard familiar footsteps.
I wagged my tail eagerly, just like a dog.
“It’s food!”
I hurriedly went to the door where it was opening, raising my front paws. Then, the door really opened, and a silver cart came in.
“Good morning, Your Highness.”
Yeah, it’s a good morning, butler. What delicious food did you bring today?
Now that I was used to this situation, I climbed onto the cart and sniffed the plate, eager to see what was inside.
“Is this an uncivilized beast?”
“Kyu!”
I wasn’t trying to eat first. I was just curious about the food!
“Hmm? But today, there’s something other than food on the cart.”
I turned my head toward the wooden object placed on one side of the cart. Just as Hadel, who had finished his bath, was drying his hair with a towel, he asked.
“What’s that?”
Without thinking, I turned my head in that direction and blushed, then quickly hid behind the wooden item.
Here’s the English translation of the Korean paragraph you provided, keeping the names and genders of the characters accurate and consistent:
“‘No coming out with just a towel! If you’re a person, wear proper clothes!'”
Hadel had walked out covering only his lower body with a towel, not wearing any clothes.
“Kyu-kyu-kyu.”
The butler, who was looking at me with a strange gaze as I felt embarrassed, lowered his head.
“I’ll help you change clothes.”
“No need.”
“If you don’t put on clothes quickly, this jokjebi might burst into flames.”
What nonsense.
Because of the butler’s unnecessary words, Hadel’s gaze also turned towards me. Unable to show my face, I just groaned.
“It seems like these people find it amusing to tease me.”
If they point it out like that, I should put on clothes, but Hadel approached the cart, where I was leaning against the wooden object, while dropping water. Then, he asked with a nod towards the wooden object I was resting my back on.
“But what’s that thing hiding there?”
“It’s a jokjebi bed that the stablekeeper made for me. I thought you’d like it, so I brought it.”
“Kyu?”
What? My bed?
“Oh yeah, my bed!”
Now that I heard it, it really looked like a bed. I climbed onto it with a wide smile.
“Well, it seems like the people in the castle are starting to acknowledge my existence. This is proof.”
