I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 407, 1.25, 30: The Rabbit Duke's Crazy Tea Party
"You want to keep these two people, is that right?" Dionysus released Jolin and took a few steps forward, his messy, wine-red hair swaying slightly with his movements.

Mu Yegui glanced at Dionysus with his cold, silver vertical pupils, but did not answer him.

Dionysus shrugged helplessly and said lazily, "I understand. I'll leave these two behind and go find Joan to deal with the rest who slipped through the net."

Mayas lifted his furry little feet to follow, but suddenly his feet were lifted off the ground and his ears were lifted up again.

"Let me go! Let me go right now!" Meas roared.

"I have something to discuss with you." Mu Yegui grabbed Meas by the ear and turned to walk in the opposite direction, not even glancing at Olycia lying on the ground.

Jolin knelt on the ground and gently helped up Olycia, who was still in a daze, and whispered something in her ear.

Mu Yegui walked straight ahead, saying he had something to discuss with Meyas, but he didn't say a word along the way.

"What exactly do you want from me?" Meas asked, frowning.

"Let's go to the lawn." Mu Yegui stopped and turned to look at the lawn outside the window, speaking slowly.

"Hey! Don't smash the window! Even I can't break the rules. If you smash the window, those soldiers will rush over immediately!" Mayas shouted when he saw that Mu Yegui seemed to want to smash the window.

Even as the owner of the instance, he cannot modify his own instance. The previous one had only ordinary rules, which was fine, but the rules of the Crown Prince instance cannot be changed unless another Crown Prince instance is triggered. But clearly, there is only one Crown Prince instance here, so he cannot change the rules.

In other words, once Mu Yegui breaks the window, he will be immediately judged as destroying the instance, which will then attract a group of rabbit soldiers.

"My royal privilege means that the rules of the game do not apply to me," Mu Yegui said calmly.

It simply depends on whether she actively wants to comply; if she doesn't want to comply, there will be no penalty for violating the rules.

Meyas: "..."

He watched helplessly as Mu Yegui smashed the window with his fist and then jumped out of the broken window.

After jumping out, Mu Yegui looked around and suddenly stopped.

"Isn't that the door over there?!" Meas pointed his furry paw at the door on the left and said angrily.

"I didn't see it," Mu Yegui said dismissively, turning his head away.

"Don't ignore me! Why do you have to break the window to leave when there's a door? What kind of bad habit is that?!" Meas felt that his temper hadn't been good since this group of people arrived. Now he just wanted this instance to end quickly so that these people would leave obediently.

“There’s a guy waiting for you. I think it’s better to meet him where it all started than to bring him along.”

She initially took it with her when she went to find Mayas because she was afraid there wouldn't be enough time to be alone with him, but now that she had enough time, she changed her mind.

It's definitely better to meet in a familiar place.

"Why did you bring me here?" Meas's body was stiff, and his tone was also very stiff, full of unnaturalness.

“There’s someone waiting for you,” Mu Yegui said softly.

“There’s nothing waiting for me here,” Mayas said, struggling to get down.

“I can tell from your attitude that you still remember it.” Mu Yegui gently pulled off his hat, revealing the furry body on his head, and released Mayas with his other hand.

Meyas sat silently on the ground, offering no response. Mu Yegui picked it up and placed it on the ground in front of Meyas.

"Meyas! Meyas! I can talk! Meyas!" it cried out hurriedly, trying to crawl toward Meyas, but it passed right through him the moment it touched him.

It suddenly froze, staring intently at its two paws.

Why did we pass through it?

Why……

"Is there something on your head? Why are you taking off your hat?" Mayas looked up at Mu Yegui and asked.

Mu Yegui put his hat back on, placed his hands behind his back, bent down slightly to look at Meyas, and said softly, "I heard that you often came here when you were very young. Were you talking to something?"

His ruby-like eyes narrowed sharply, and he said coldly, "Where did you get that information from!"

"From where? Maybe it told you itself, after all, it watched you grow up," Mu Yegui said slowly.

"Are you kidding me?" Meas frowned, staring coldly at Mu Yegui. "Although I've come here all my childhood, there's nothing here. It's just something I've imagined in my mind—a desire for recognition and companionship."

"Can't you see it?" Mu Yegui tilted his head and looked at Meyas, asking again.

“If it doesn’t exist, how could it possibly be seen?” Mayas chuckled self-deprecatingly and said calmly.

It stared blankly at Mayas, its eyes brimming with glistening tears.

"Meyas... I'm here..." it whispered, its voice tinged with despair.

Is it really the only one watching him?

"Back then, I was so naive. I just wanted to confide in someone, but no one wanted to talk to me, and even the servants were afraid of me. So I just found a corner and made it my confidant. Looking back now, it was so childish. I even thought about giving a name to something that didn't exist, hahaha, it's so funny."

As Mayas spoke, he burst into laughter, but tears welled up in his eyes.

“But if only there really is something there, if only I wasn’t talking to the air, I want to know that I’m not actually talking to myself here alone, that I’m not actually alone.” Mayas covered his eyes and sobbed, his voice trembling with tears and filled with sorrow.

"Meyas..." It stretched out its paws, trying to hug Meyas, but it only managed to grab empty air and ended up bumping into itself.

“I was really heartbroken when my mother died, so I ran here desperately wanting to tell her, wanting to know that I wasn’t alone. But there was nothing there, it was all fake, all of it was just my own delusion, I’ve been deceiving myself all along.”

I wish it really existed, I want to see it... I want to touch it...

But even if it truly existed, I wouldn't have the face to see it now! Why did I have to become a rabbit! Why did I become like this! Why did I have to go through all this!

Meyas screamed in agony, crying his heart out, as if he were venting all his grievances.

The cold, vertical pupils silently watched the way it held Meyas, but the latter felt nothing at all.

Mu Yegui blinked and asked softly, "If it really exists, can you tell it what name you gave it?"

"firefly."
