"Since he could trace the rabbits all the way here, it means it has something or the capability to find the rabbits." explained Angus.
"Agreed. However, I still don't like any outsider entering our fortress, especially during this time. According to Jade, Andvari goes mad and gathers almost all of his soldiers in Archdale and almost leaves the other nation empty. He could attack us anytime." stated Aunt Extalia
"Still, we couldn't just let those invisible rabbits run around any further. Who knows what they will do behind us?" added Aunt Extalia.
"So, what did you suggest?" asked Angus.
"You said that little monster could catch them before, right? Then, asked her to hunt them." said Aunt Extalia.
"Alright, I will ask her later. However, don't get your hopes high. You know how unreliable Anna can be." warned Angus.
Remember the little troublemaker's mischievous act, "Honestly, I don't want to involve her either. But, we don't have much choice. If you, who is our best detector, couldn't even detect them, we may not be able to find them in a short time." said Aunt Extalia.
"*Sigh* Guess we don't have any choice. How about King Leon?" asked Angus.
"I already informed him about Andvari's behavior. Unfortunately, he is still preoccupied with the Udrary post-war matter." replied Aunt Extalia.
After chatting for a while, Angus leaves Aunt Extalia's room before deciding to go toward Jayna and Anna's room. Since it is only a few hours before sunrise, Angus decides to visit Anna and rest for a moment.
Since the battle could start anytime, he needed to keep his body and mind in good condition. He needs to take at least a good rest for a few hours every day. Arriving at the room, Angus finds his beloved girlfriend sleeping beside the adorable little Anna.
The little troublemaker is sleeping near the bottom edge of the bed. Seeing Anna's bad sleeping posture, Angus could only shake his head and approach her.
As soon as he tries to pick up the little girl, Angus feels like touching something invisible around Anna's body. He felt like touching a furry animal's skin. At this moment, he realizes Anna actually managed to catch the two invisible rabbits while sleeping.
'She is probably catching them while she is sleeping and moving around.' thought Angus.
Angus doesn't know how or why the rabbits are near Anna. However, he knows this is an opportunity to catch these sneaky invisible rabbits still playing possums under Anna's arm.

"I'm just trying to catch two invisible sneaky rabbits." replied Angus.
"Invisible Rabbits?!" asked Jayna in confusion.
"Yes. We are infiltrated by two invisible rabbits. Somehow, Anna manages to catch these two invisible rabbits now." said Angus.
Jayna tilted her head in confusion before approaching Anna and found two invisible things hugged by Anna.
"Why do they stay silent like that? Did they like Anna?" asked Jayna.
"I am not sure. But, it is better to put special marks and catch them first. It will be troublesome if they disappear again." said Angus.
While putting special invisible marks on the two invisible rabbits, Angus told Jayna about the rabbits and turtle.
"Hmm.. Let me try something. You two come out now. No need to play death and stay silent. We know you are there." said Jayna while using [Allegiance].
At the same time, she also leaked her phoenix aura a little bit. Under these two powerful coercions, two rabbits subconsciously tremble and are forced to reveal themself.
Seeing the two big white bunnies hugged by Anna, "Cute!!" exclaimed Jayna while hugging the three of them tightly.
Under the tight hug, the two bunnies feel crushed to death. In contrast, Anna is still sleeping without caring about the world. In fact, she even snuggled at Jayna after feeling Jayna's presence.
"Err.. Jayna, I think you should release them or you may crush the rabbit to death." said Angus.
Although Jayna is only a third-grade combatant, her physical power is not weak either. Since she is focused on close combat and the warrior path, she is constantly training her body. Her physical strength is enough to bend ordinary hard metal easily.
"Ahh… I didn't realize it. They are just too lovable and cute." replied Jayna while loosening her hug without letting them get away.
"Anyway, I think it is time for you two rabbits to speak and explain yourself." said Angus.
Having no response from the rabbits, "Don't play time dumb. We know you could understand and speak a common language. If you still refuse to speak, I have no choice but to roast you. Coincidentally, Anna has been pestering me about roasted rabbit lately." said Angus.
"Hm.. Nyam.. Nyam.. Roasted Rabbit." Anna suddenly has sleep talk while drooling.
"W-Wait.. We talk. We will talk." replied one of the rabbits.
"Good. Tell me who you are and why you are here?" asked Angus.
"Erm.. Can you help us come out from this monster first? She is really crushing us." asked one of the rabbits.
Angus notices there are some bruises on their body. He assumed they got it from getting thrashed by Anna. Still, he didn't plan to release the rabbit yet. He didn't know if the rabbit had other means to escape despite already being marked and bound.
"Then, you better hurry up and explain why you are here. I don't mind you getting crushed since it will be less hassle to kill you before making you into a roasting rabbit." said Angus.
'This human is evil!!' thought the two rabbits in a cold sweat.
Hearing the word roasting rabbit, Anna slowly tightens her hug while drooling. *Crack* *Crack*
"Stop! Stop!! Our rabbit bone is breaking! Please stop her!!" urged the rabbit frantically.
"My name is.. Tiny Illy Willy." said one of the rabbits with difficulty.
"Tootsy Fu Nebras.. Apollo III." replied the other rabbit.
"We.. We are.. rabbits from… the Moon Rabbit Clan. Please make her stop. She is really crushing us." pleaded Tiny desperately.
"What a weird name? But that talking turtle also has a weird name." replied Angus.
Suddenly, Anna moves around and loosens her hug but still grabs the rabbit's ear tightly. This made the two rabbits a little bit relieved since they weren't crushed to death by this unnatural girl.
"Talking turtle?! Are you with that cunning turtle?" asked Tootsy warily.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hmm.. Who knows?" replied Angus playfully.
"No, you are not with him. If he works together with you, he will be here already." said Tootsy after analyzing the situation.
"Hoo.. It seems that you and the turtle have some unfinished business." replied Angus.
"Hmph!! That bastard should be killed a thousand times. I don't know what you are talking about with this turtle. But, nothing good will come from that bastard." said Tiny angrily.
"Interesting. Care to enlighten me why you hate him so much. From what I could tell, that turtle is very gullible and too kind for his own good." said Angus.
"Exactly. Did you think a turtle with that personality could survive alone in this world?" replied Tootsy.
Then, the two rabbits tell Angus and Jayna about their hatred for the turtle. Apparently, the turtle is very cunning and a great actor. The turtle will look harmless and gullible before stabbing anyone in the back when they lower their guard.
Using this cunning move, the turtle robbed and destroyed the whole Moon Rabbit Clan. The Moon Rabbit Clan is a unique mutated rabbit similar to beastman. Still, they are leaned towards rabbit rather than humanoid features.
They also didn't have beastman physical strength traits. In contrast, they have very powerful stealth abilities. This is also the reason why people hardly know about them. Erasing presence and becoming invisible is their natural ability.
Only a few unique people could detect them. Under this powerful stealth ability, Moon Rabbit Clan decides to live peacefully far from the major conflict in the world. Unfortunately, they didn't expect their clan to be found by the cunning turtle.
At first, the turtle acts as an honest merchant between their clan and the others. Since not many people can feel their presence, the Moon Rabbit decides to welcome the kind turtle with open arms.
After years of interacting, the kind turtle suddenly changes into a horrible person and exterminates all the clan. The turtle uses their own weakness and slowly kills everyone using many underhanded tactics.
Before getting slaughtered, Tootsy and Tiny escape after some rabbits hold the turtle. They didn't expect the turtle to be persistent and keep pursuing them until now.
Hearing the rabbits' story, Angus couldn't help but find it strange since it was entirely different from the turtle story. He also notices the two rabbits are a little weird and hiding something from them.
Before he could interrogate the rabbit further, "Huaamm… Nyam… Nyam.. Umm… Angus, Big sis, is it time for breakfast?" asked Anna with sleepy eyes.
Seeing the sleepy Anna, who is still holding the rabbits tightly, Angus and Jayna couldn't help but shake their heads at her ridiculousness.
"Angus, Anna has weird dreams. Anna met with a big funny but looking delicious white rabbit. Now, Anna really wants a roasted bunny." added Anna.
