Hawaii, USA

Gulp. Gulp.

With no more food left in Hawaii, the giant leech decided to return to the sea in search of other prey. Its direction was toward the mainland USA.

Just then,

“We have reached the destination.”

Five C-17 transport aircraft appeared over the skies of Hawaii.

And then,

“We will commence the food drop.”

From the transport planes, a vast number of blood tanks filled with blood were dropped to the ground. Some of the blood tanks broke open during the fall, spilling blood, but this was somewhat intentional.

Gulp. Gulp.

The giant leech, sensing the smell of blood, changed its direction. It swallowed the blood tanks that had fallen to the ground.

And then,

Crush.

It powerfully constricted the tanks, bursting them open, and absorbed the blood inside.

“Operation successful. We have confirmed the leech has changed its direction. Returning to base.”

The transport planes that carried out the operation changed direction and returned to base.

When the giant leech first appeared, the U.S. military, unable to subdue it by the seaside, bombarded it with thousands of missiles.

Billions of dollars were burned, but the effect was minimal. The giant leech, when hit by missiles, would split into smaller leeches and then recombine into its original form.

Moreover, with no prey left, the leech began moving towards the United States in search of new food.

Without a solution, the U.S. military eventually decided to launch their most powerful weapon, a nuclear missile, at Hawaii and withdrew the surrounding navy.

At that time, bodies drained of blood, like mummies, were discovered elsewhere. On the path passing Hawaii and heading to the mainland of the U.S. It turned out there wasn’t just one giant leech.

The U.S. quickly changed its strategy.

“Let’s lure the enemy to Hawaii and contain them there.”

Thus, they dropped blood in Hawaii, attracting the blood-sensitive leeches to the island. This was also more cost-effective than using missiles, as the price of blood was cheaper.

So, the giant leeches were being “raised” (?) in Hawaii.

***

As they approached the White Castle of the Red Ribbon Kingdom, a vast city surrounding the castle came into view.

Ppyak!

[This is Rabbit City, the capital of the Red Ribbon Kingdom!]

The black rabbit proudly introduced Rabbit City from Sejun’s shoulder. It was indeed something to be proud of. The city, with its buildings of various colors, was beautiful.

Ppyak!

[Rabbit City is home to 1 billion rabbits!]

“1 billion?!”

From the outside, it didn’t seem like there was enough space for so many rabbits, but considering the burrowing nature of rabbits, it quickly made sense.

The city was larger underground than it appeared on the surface.

Ppyak! Ppyak…

[Yes! So…]

Sejun was astonished, and the excited black rabbit continued to explain enthusiastically.

As they arrived at the city entrance while listening to the black rabbit,

Snap!

Four black rabbit soldiers guarding the city’s entrance saluted their king.

Ppyak!

The black rabbit accepted their greeting and entered the city, followed by Sejun. Theo, Cuengi, and the golden bat were all hanging on Sejun, so he just had to walk.

“Wow!”

Sejun marveled again upon entering the city. Countless rabbits were busy selling things, eating, crafting, and doing their various tasks.

If the emotion felt from the outside of the city was beauty, inside, it was vibrant life.

Ppyak!

[Uncle, we’ll tour the city later. First, let me show you the castle!]

“Huh?! Okay.”

Sejun snapped back to reality at the black rabbit’s urging. The black rabbit seemed eager to quickly take Sejun to the castle.

On their way to the castle,

“Black rabbit, wait a moment.”

Sejun called the black rabbit to a halt upon spotting a red crystal in the middle of the vast square in front of White Castle. It was a waypoint.

Ppyak?

[Why?]

“Let’s register at the waypoint first.”

Since one never knows what might happen in life, Sejun decided to register at the waypoint in advance.

As Sejun approached the red crystal and placed his hand on it,
