Chapter 146: Two-Faced Bunny

Grey was shocked by the fact that even though the bunny leader sent its army into the compound, it refused to enter. Not just it, but the other two bunnies at the Origin Plane also stood at its side like guards, refusing to go inside as well.
‘So, are we killing them all?’ Void asked preparing himself to attack.
“Of course not. The only one I really want dead is the leader. I think I’ll kill three more for dinner.” Grey replied.
He didn’t plan on killing all the bunnies, he wasn’t a blood-thirsty fiend, so killing all of them didn’t cross his mind.
Currently, over two hundred bunnies had flocked into the compound. Inside a three hundred and fifty square meters compound where the building took up almost one hundred meters, there was little room for over two hundred bunnies, with each bunny being over one meter respectively. The compound suddenly looked small compared to when it was empty.
‘I’ll use the arrays to trap them here, then empty the garden.’ Grey thought.
He wasn’t too bothered about the three bunnies that were outside the compound, as long as he could keep these ones here, then the threat was already removed. Those two at the Origin Plane couldn’t defeat him, even if there were five of them, he was still very confident in his abilities.
Since things had already gotten to this stage, there’s no point in delaying any further. Grey quickly made some weird hand gestures, and a small array could be seen forming above his hands, after it completely formed, he struck the ground with it.
Squeal!
The bunny leader squealed loudly when it saw this, and for the first time, panic was seen on its face with Its nose twitching continuously.
The bunnies which were about to attack Grey stopped on hearing their leader’s order, and they immediately turned tails and tried to escape out of the compound.
“Oh! You’re quite alert, but it’s already too late.” Grey chuckled lightly.
Buzz! Buzz!
With buzzing sounds ringing in the compound, the transparent glass-like wall appeared, forming a semi-circle around the entire compound.
A few bunnies managed to escape before the glass-like wall came up though, but looking at their entire numbers, they didn’t really make much of a difference.
Grey couldn’t create a single array this large, all he could do was use the help of multiple small arrays and merge them together. The disadvantage of this was that once a single array was destroyed, the entire thing will crumble.
‘Well, guess there’s no use for these anymore.’ Grey thought while dismissing the two inscriptions he created while he was running here.
The moment he activated the array, he immediately left the compound with Void, now, instead of facing hundreds of bunnies, all he had to face was just over six bunnies.
Squeak, Squeak
The previously smug-looking bunny leader made some squeaking sounds putting both hands together and making its already huge eyes turn bigger, except, in a cute way.
“Huh! What’s it doing?” Grey couldn’t help but ask.
‘It’s…begging.’ Void said, dazed by how quickly the bunny changed.
Some minutes ago, it was cursing them and their entire family, it even chased them for almost three minutes, but the second it saw things were stacked against it, it quickly started begging.
“What?!” Grey exclaimed in surprise, not expecting the always proud and arrogant bunny to actually beg.
‘It quite cute with its big round eyes, fluffy white hair, twitching nose… No, no, it’s not cute!’
Grey was almost falling for how cute the bunny looked, but then, he recalled his past experience with it and quickly threw its cuteness to the back of his head.
This was an evil bunny! A two-faced bunny!
He attacked immediately without giving the bunnies any chances, but he was left speechless when the two bunnies at the Origin Plane used the wind element to block his attack.
The impact sent them flying, but the bunny leader was still in his previous spot, only this time, it looked to be on its knees.
“I’m actually starting to feel a little sympathy towards it.” Grey said when he saw how seriously it was pleading with him.
‘I’m not.’ Void said and attacked.
Boom!
Boom!
‘What’s that?’ Void who just sent out an attack asked in surprise.
Boom!
Boom!
The rhythmic sound continued echoing out. It was just like the sound of a giant taking one step at a time.
“Something big is coming.” Grey’s expression turned serious.
After Grey and Void’s attention had turned to where the sound was coming from, a smirk formed on the face of the bunny leader, clearly, it knew what was coming.
The sound was surprisingly coming from the south, and that was the direction they came from, it was also where the garden was located.
‘Uhmm… Should we leave?’ Void enquired.
From how loud the footsteps were, it was easy for them to guess whatever was coming their way was something big. Although size isn’t might, in a place like this, anything this big has to be powerful. The reason they thought this way was simple, if a creature here is big but isn’t strong, then it would have already been killed and eaten by the stronger beasts.
“Not now, I’ll like to see what is coming, and… Wait, where’s the bunny?” Grey’s attention was previously mostly placed on where the sound was coming from, so he failed to realize the bunny had somehow sneakily escaped.
The fact that the bunny leader could escape right under his nose amazed him, even though what was coming drew most of his attention, he wasn’t that stupid to not keep track of the bunny, yet, it still escaped.
Of all the bunnies present, only the leader escaped.
‘Damn! I can easily fight against opponents two stages ahead of me and even kill them, yet I can’t seem to be able to defeat a bunny that’s still in the Arcane Plane. Either this bunny is too incredible, or those people I thought were geniuses are nothing more than rags.’ Grey felt a little dejected over his repeated failure against a bunny.
With the bunny gone, it felt like staying here was meaningless, but he was still left annoyed since he couldn’t even take a single thing from the garden.
The beast was coming from that direction, so going that way was out of the question. It felt like his entire trip was a waste of time, and he even made such a time-consuming array, yet he couldn’t fulfill the purpose he created it.
“We should retreat to a safe distance.” Grey agreed to Void’s suggestion of leaving this place, only, he was curious about what was coming here.
One minute later, the beast making the loud step appeared in Grey and Void’s view. The beast was surprisingly not walking, but…hopping.
Coming towards the compound was a huge seven meters tall bunny, and perched on its shoulder was a smaller one-meter bunny that had a smug expression.
‘Isn’t that the leader of the bunnies?’ Void asked when he saw the bunnies.
“Yeah.” Grey nodded.
‘Wow! That’s a huge bunny!’ Void exclaimed.
“Such a large reinforcement. But, when did it call it?” Grey was stumped by this question.
The bunny leader escaped only when this huge one started making its way here, so it must have called it when it realized the odds were against them.
‘Doesn’t this mean that it was only pleading to delay time? Shit! The bunny’s something else!’ Grey felt even more dejected.
Just when he thought maybe he had something against the bunny, he found out the bunny was only buying time.
“*Sigh* I give up, we should head over to the building with the book. If I see that bunny’s face any longer, I might attack.” Grey sighed before leaving, heading towards the west.
Just as he turned around.
Ka-cha!
The sound of his array breaking rang out, he turned around only to see a strange occurrence. The bunny leader that was perched on the huge bunny’s shoulder had its right paw raised, the back of the paw was facing Grey, and the bunny was surprisingly able to keep only the middle finger straight, folding the other four.
‘What’s it doing?’ Void asked.
“Showing us its middle finger.” Grey replied with a sour face.
‘Oh! What’s the meaning?’ Void asked curiously.
Although he acts smart sometimes, one has to remember it hasn’t been up to a week he was born yet, so he didn’t know everything.
“Fuck you.” Grey replied.
‘Damn! What did I do to you? I only asked the meaning of what it was doing!’ Void said a little annoyed.
“Yeah, fuck you.” Grey said again.
‘If you don’t want to tell me the meaning you can just say it outright.’ Void said angrily.
“It’s fuck… Oh… I’m sorry, my bad. The meaning of what it did is fuck you.” Grey suddenly realized why Void was getting annoyed.
‘Hmph!’ Void snorted, still feeling a little annoyed.
Grey apologized again before continuing their journey, he knew he was the one at fault since he didn’t explain it properly, so he didn’t really hassle over it.
Their shadow soon disappeared into the thick forest.
