nah, he never got love from his family has much as he did from his master, so it's def because he saw him as a authority figure, hard to say no to them
He was never truly upset with his master he just thought his master only thought of him as a plaything he had no idea how he really felt till he read the journal then he high speeded their relationship because it's what he's always dreamed of.
I like the story and art, but why forgive him so quick? I wish MC tries to run away again, or hurts his master the way he hurt him...yk
