Ppyak?! Ppyak!

[Uncle, why are you doing this? Cuengi, let go!]

Struggling

The black rabbit struggled with all his might to break free from Cuengi’s firm grip, but

Krueng! Krueng!

[Can’t let go! Big brother needs to eat this!]

Cuengi held on tight, unwilling to let go. It was inevitable; after all, who would voluntarily eat something bitter?

Then

Swoop.

“Black rabbit, this is for your own good. Make sure to chew it well.”

Sejun swiftly slipped a white kudzu root into the black rabbit’s mouth as he spoke.

Ppyak?

Chew. Chew.

The Black Rabbit automatically chewed what was put in his mouth.

“That’s right. It’s very bitter, isn’t it? But it’s good for you, so bear with it. We went through a lot of trouble to dig these up for you. I swear, we are not enjoying seeing you suffer. Hehehe.”

Kuehehehe. Krueng!

[Hehehe. That’s right!]

Sejun and Cuengi keenly watched the black rabbit’s face, their expressions filled with anticipation.

But

Chew. Chew.

Chew. Chew.

Contrary to their expectations, the black rabbit nonchalantly chewed on the kudzu root without any issue.

Gulp.

Even more, he swallowed it completely.

“What?! It’s not bitter?”

Ppyak? Ppyak!

[It’s quite edible. Can I have another one, please?]

The Black Rabbit asked for more kudzu roots, opening his mouth wide.

“What?! It’s edible?!”

Krueng?!

[You can eat that?!]

Sejun and Cuengi were shocked by the Black Rabbit’s response.

“Here.”

Obliging the black rabbit’s request, Sejun handed over another white kudzu root.

Chew. Chew.

Chew. Chew.

The black rabbit comfortably ate it.

Ppyak! Ppyak!

[Cuengi, let go! Let me eat properly!]

Krueng! Krueng!

[Okay! Big brother is amazing!]

Cuengi, convinced by the black rabbit’s commitment to eating the kudzu root, unsuspectingly released him.

However,

Hop.

As soon as the black rabbit was freed, he distanced himself from them.

And then

Ptui! Ptui!

Ppyak!

[You’re both dead!]

“Uh?!”

Krueng?

The Black Rabbit spat vigorously to rid his mouth of the bitter taste, then picked up his weapon, the thumping hammer. He had learned to hide his feelings while living in the royal family.

Krueng!

[Dad, Big brother is angry!]

Cuengi sensed the black rabbit’s fury and quickly hid behind Sejun’s legs, shouting out. I know that… But shouldn’t you be protecting me, Cuengi?

“Dear nephew, how about we talk this over?”

Forced to the front line thanks to Cuengi, Sejun looked at the black rabbit and suggested a dialogue, but
