“Kyoo-Kyoo-Kyoo-Kyoo-Kyoo-”

Iona was on the verge of exploding.

“Iona, calm down, meow!”

Theo called out to Iona, gently wrapping his front paws around her, who was coiled around his tail, and brought her in front of him.

Iona, now just a few centimeters away from Theo’s face, met his eyes.

“Kyup?!”

Confused by Theo’s sudden action, Iona made a strange sound, unable to express either laughter or anger.

Then,

Swoosh. Swoosh. Swoosh.

“Iona, it’s okay if you’re not friends with Mimyr, meow!”

Theo stroked Iona’s head as he spoke.

“Kyoo-Kyoo-Kyoo-Kyoo-”

Iona’s anger somewhat subsided with Theo’s comforting touch.

“Come to think of it, Mimyr is all fur, meow!”

Mimyr’s appearance was a mess, not suitable for following Theo around as a subordinate. Of course, Mimyr’s disheveled state was due to Theo’s terrible grooming skills.

Mimyr would have felt incredibly wronged if she had heard this, but there was no one here to tell her that,

“Kyoo-Right! Mimyr does have quite the fur.”

Thanks to this, Iona’s anger level dropped significantly.

As the atmosphere lightened,

“Iona, but where is your Theo Ball?”

Sejun changed the subject. The ever-present Theo Ball was nowhere to be seen.

“The Theo Ball? Kyek-kyek. It… got taken by the Apostle of Destruction…”

Iona became gloomy at the mention of the Theo Ball.

“That’s good. I made a new Theo Ball to give you.”

“Kyoot-kyoot-kyoot. Really?!”

Iona was overjoyed at the prospect of getting a new Theo Ball.

“Yeah. Here.”

Sejun took out the newly made Theo Ball 2.0 and handed it to Iona,

“Kyoot-kyoot-kyoot. Thank you. I’ll give you this in return.”

Iona handed Sejun 50 white coins she had obtained from the fragments of the Apostle of Destruction and put the Theo Ball in her spatial pocket.

Then,

Swoop.

Iona once again clung to Theo’s tail. Even though she liked the Theo Ball, it couldn’t replace the real thing.

“Shall we explore the city?”

As the mood improved, Sejun quickly suggested this before Theo could ruin the atmosphere again with his nonsense.

Krueng!

[Cuengi wants to explore the city too!]

Cuengi immediately clung to Sejun’s leg in response to his suggestion.

“If Chairman Park goes, I’m going too, meow!”

Theo hurriedly clung to Sejun’s leg as well.

“Let’s go.”

“We’re off, meow!”

Krueng!

[Let’s go have fun!]

Sejun and the animals left White Castle and headed towards Rabbit City.

***

Ppyak?

[How can there be no trace at all?]

Arriving at the crime scene, the Black Rabbit couldn’t find any evidence. The missing person had disappeared as if evaporated. There were no records of them leaving the city, nor was there a body.

Moreover, nothing seemed to have been stolen. If it weren’t for the report from their companions, no one would have known about the disappearance.

Ppyak?

[But why?]

The sudden disappearances were perplexing.

If this got out, the Red Ribbon Kingdom would gain a reputation for poor security right at its founding, a critical blow to the kingdom. The case had to be solved before the founding ceremony and wedding. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say the fate of the nation depended on it.

But there were no clues. There was no common link between the missing people, no shared characteristics.
