Ok Toyeon escaped death with the order given to her.
Considered a rabbit engraved on the moon, Ok Toyeon experienced numerous deaths and resurrections.
Ok Toyeon wasn’t afraid of death.
Until Eunho presented his scarecrow gifts, she was willing to burn herself every time the Jeseokdoryang was held in January.She isn’t afraid of the pain that death entails.
So even though Hwangho wanted to kill her from the bottom of his heart, Ok Toyeon was able to tease him without fear.
Ok Toyeon was scared of something else.
The fear was planted early this year on April Fool’s Day.
That fear came with an omen.
— What’s wrong, Toyoon unnie?
Most of the Rabbit Clan spend time at the Moon Rabbit Rice Cake headquarters instead of staying at home.However, on April Fool’s Day, all the rabbit people returned to their hometowns.
She thought Eunho’s descendants must’ve prepared a prank and the Rabbit Clan went along with it.
But the atmosphere was different.
While listening to a subordinate’s report, Ok Toyoon said something.
— There’s a problem with the boundary. You’ll have to go yourself as the clan head.
— Ugh, how annoying. I was going to play with Seoho, Iho, and Jaeho before watching baseball though.
— Sounds like you’re going to play all day. You’re kidding, right Toyeon-ah?
— Hm? Oh, yeah, I’m joking!
Ok Toyeon hurriedly stood up when she saw Ok Toyoon clench her fists.
Ok Toyoon followed her so that she couldn’t run away.
As soon as rabbits approached the boundary, the sky opened and a light flashed down.
Fwiijijik!
— W-what is this?
— The sky suddenly opened!
— What the…? Is it a superior being…?
Ok Toyeon recognized the light as soon as the sky opened.
The warm light was so powerful that it stung their eyes.
The power belonged to Jeseokcheon (Indra).
— This is Jeseokcheon-nim’s power! A miracle out of nowhere! But why the sudden intervention? It’s extremely hard to make a miracle like this…
The boundary roared while Ok Toyeon was murmuring.
All the people of Rabbit Clan were surprised by the sound of the sparks.
Then, an unidentified group of royal lineage appeared outside the boundary.
They were trying to break the Rabbit Clan’s boundary.
However, as Jeseokcheon reinforced the boundary, its nature changed and couldn’t be smoothly released.
Beyond the boundary, the rabbit people saw royal lineages with burning hostility.
— The boundary made by the 12-point alliance isn’t supposed to break like this! What the hell?
Ok Toyeon rolled her eyes nervously.
Those people seemed to know well about the boundary.
They had a strong energy that the Rabbit Clan couldn’t deal with.
Perhaps if Jeseokcheon hadn’t intervened in a hurry. They would’ve been beaten by the sudden attack.
Ok Toyoon tried to find a way to live by taking advantage of the time that Jeseokcheon bought them.
— Let’s ask for reinforcements. I don’t think the Tiger Clan will respond, but anywhere! Even if the association… Or Yong…
Ok Toyoon tried to say ‘Yong Jegun’ but stopped.
While thinking of a strong royal lineage that they can contact, she almost named the Dragon of Amusement without realizing it.
But someone out there knows the boundary of the 12-point alliance.
Therefore, it was highly likely that it was a member of the alliance.
They couldn’t ask the Dragon Clan, a part of the alliance, for help.
The Rabbit Clan decided to contact the association, but the call wouldn’t come through.
Someone blocked the communication signal around the Rabbit Clan’s stronghold.
— W-what should we do? How do we run away? There are enemies on the side streets! We’ll get hit right away if we go out of the boundary.
Ok Toyoon tried to find a way to escape, but the Rabbit Clan was completely surrounded.
The enemies were presumed to be minions of royal lineage, and even if they beat those enemies, those vicious royal lineages would flock to them.
At that time, another abnormality occurred.
Woooong!
Moonlight came down while it was still bright.
Another intervention of a superior being.
It was Chang’e of the Moon Palace.
She didn’t perform a miracle like Jeseokcheon, but it gave way to life.
— It’s the entrance to the Moon Palace! Chang’e-nim is intervening too!
— You want to run to the Moon Palace? But only you and I can enter, Toyoon unnie!
Only two people could climb the path to the Moon Palace that opened.
Ok Toyeon and Ok Toyoon were the only rabbit clans qualified to enter.
And although Chang’e was helping, the road to the Moon Palace wasn’t easily opened.
A full moon had to rise on a cloudless night so that a boatman could paddle in a boat to and from the Moon Palace.
It was obvious that it would take a long time still.
— I don’t think we can get on the boat seeing how fast the boundary is collapsing…
Ok Toyeon looked at the boundary and the moonlight alternately.
Ok Toyoon must be thinking the same thing.
Her face was blurred as she looked at the speed of the boundary’s collapse.
Then, she spoke with determination.
— Go back to the Moon Palace while we’re blocking them, Toyeon-ah.
Even the tactless Ok Toyeon understood what Ok Toyoon was trying to say, but she was surprised to hear it.
Even the rabbits behind Ok Toyoon nodded.
It sounded like the entire Rabbit Clan would sacrifice themselves to send Ok Toyeon back to the Moon Palace.
— Nonsense! I don’t die, you know that. If there’s anyone who should go, it should be Toyoon unnie!
Ok Toyeon’s words didn’t seem to make sense at first, but she wasn’t wrong.
She’d survive even if she died.
— You’re not good at fighting. If I don’t remain and fight, you can’t buy time to open the road to the Moon Palace.
— S-still! I should be the one left behind!
Ok Toyoon smiled softly.
— If it’s the same result, then it’s better if you don’t feel pain.
Ok Toyoon was always sad to see Ok Toyeon burn down every year.
She was always heartbroken that she had no talent or wisdom like Eunho to create a scarecrow.
So Ok Toyoon has been training herself even though she’s naturally not good at fighting.
Ok Toyoon looked as if she had been waiting for this moment.
Seeing that face, Ok Toyeon felt even worse.
— N-no! I’m not going! I don’t want to go!
— Toyeon-ah…
Ok Toyeon put her foot down and announced that she wouldn’t go to the Moon Palace no matter what happened.
‘Why on earth did she think and make that choice!’
Unlike shouting vigorously, Ok Toyeon was at a loss with fear.
She recalled the royal lineage that tried to break their boundary to kill the Rabbit Clan.
There was a strong sense of death and malice around those people.
She thought she was used to death, but the energy crept her out in just one glance.
There was a deep and eerie energy around the royal lineage at the forefront who tried to break the boundary, and just looking at them made Ok Toyeon feel like crying.
She trembled at the thought that a royal lineage with such energy would soon cross their boundary and kill them all.
‘What should I do… What about Toyoon unnie? How do I save the other rabbits? Seoho, Iho, and Jaeho will be hiding well, right? They’re not gonna find the children, right?
Ok Toyeon could vaguely hear Ok Toyoon’s words.
But then, a quiet suddenly fell outside.
The attack that was wrapped with the intention of destroying them suddenly stopped.
When she felt the energy outside for a moment, the fear disappeared from Ok Toyeon for a second.
But no one thought of going outside.
‘Did they set up a trap because the boundary didn’t break as they thought?’
The other rabbits seem to think similarly.
Their vigilance grew stronger and stronger.
Then, a voice with a strong energy wave rang out loudly.
It sounded like a tiger roaring.
— You damned moon rabbits, yours truly is here. Can’t you open the door right now?!
Ok Toyeon recognized the voice and raised her head.
She knew the voice very well, but it sounded very annoying to her ears.
It was Hwangho, the head of the Tiger Clan.
— H-hwangho? How did you know? How are you here…?
— The Tiger Clan is here to help! Let’s go out!
The Rabbit Clan removed the poorly built barricades and moved closer to the boundary.
The rabbits assumed that the attackers were from the alliance, but they never suspected the Tiger Clan.
Although the relationship between Ok Toyeon and Hwangho was very bad and the latter hid a secret so big that she couldn’t ask them for help, the Rabbit Clan never thought that the Tiger Clan would betray them.
Eunho once served as the head of the Tiger Clan, and the descendants of Eunho lived as part of the Rabbit Clan.
As they approached the boundary, the rabbits saw Hwangho and his men.
Around them were what they supposed to be the remains of enemies.
The unidentified royal lineage seemed to have fled as the Tiger Clan attacked.
The Tiger Clan was their savior, but they looked at them with a very vicious expression.
— You’ve hidden Eunho’s three descendants for that long period.
There were some rabbits that froze at the sight of Hwangho, but Ok Toyeon wasn’t afraid at all.
Hwangho’s irritation was nothing compared to the vicious energy she felt earlier.
Hwangho cannot kill her anyway, and he’s not in the mood to bully Ok Toyeon.
But that ominous energy from before…
It was now in front of her.
“What’s this? A butterfly?”
Song Daesok saw it and said so.
That terrible mass of fear in Ok Toyeon’s eyes seemed to appear like a cute butterfly to Song Daesok.
“Butterfly? Does that look like a butterfly?”
It looked to her as if Song Daesok carried the shadow of a falling spirit.
It wasn’t something cute like a butterfly.
‘Is it a butterfly royal lineage? What’s going on!’
When Ok Toyeon tried to scream at Song Daesok to run right away…
Fwijik, fwiik…
The ominous energy suddenly began to crack.
As if the boundary between dream and reality was collapsing, a gap suddenly opened.
It was an otherworld gap.
“Run away!”
Ok Toyeon screamed and Song Daesok flew away.
However, the enemy’s claws broke through the gap and tried to scratch Song Daesok’s back.
Kwaaang!
At that moment…
Someone wrapped around Song Daesok’s back.
A shield made of energy waves.
It was deployed as an item card by someone whose hands were wrapped in leather gloves.
“Regulation Enforcement…?”
As Song Daesok muttered, the person wearing a black coat and mask nodded.
