"Fine, then go with the apple tree. I'll make a proper nest for you later and bring it over," Kim Haru said, not forcing the matter.
With that, the apple tree and the little hamster followed Go Okrim toward the orchard. Meanwhile, Kim Haru tossed the piglet he'd claimed into the pigpen and addressed his Little Snort, saying, "Here's a new companion for you. Don't bully it, all right?"
He also didn't forget to instruct Little Oakie, "This newcomer is your responsibility. Feed it the same as Little Snort."
Once these tasks were done, Kim Haru collapsed into a chair, utterly drained.
A few zombie-bots still lingered aimlessly in the clearing, awaiting orders, but Kim Haru's energy had already been completely spent dealing with the sudden revelation of these mutated plants. He didn't have the strength to handle the melon seeds he got today. Since delaying for another day wouldn't cause any harm, he decided to leave the task for tomorrow.
