1210 Be Good and Let Me Stroke You a Little 2 (1/2)
The little boy continued to look smilingly at it, and said in a highly innocent tone:
”Little wabbit be good, let me stroke you just a little and I'll let you eat the carrot. It's really very good.”
The soldiers who were there to guard His Majesty had upon seeing the innocent actions of their Emperor, broke out into faint genuine smiles, without any trace of malice in them.
The big eared rabbit seemed to understand what the little boy had said as it glanced at the carrot and then raised its eyes to look at the little boy before it hopped a little to go nearer.
Just at the moment when the little boy was about to be able to touch the big eared rabbit, the sound of light footsteps came out from within the woods. The soldiers who had smiles upon all their faces immediately retracted their smiles, the swords they held in their hands readied, to face whoever was approaching sternly!
Suddenly, a petite and slender figure walked out from within the woods.
It was a youth looking about fifteen years of age. The youth's looks was not exactly outstanding but for that pair of cold and clear eyes.
In the instant that the youth appeared, the big eared rabbit who had been all prepared to accept the ”temptation” suddenly turned around and ran towards that youth. The little boy who had already stretched his hand out to almost stroke the big eared rabbit quickly lost his balance in surprise, and fell forward with a splat onto the ground, his mouth filled with grass, as a faint white light flashed once behind the little boy's body…..
”Who are you! ?” An officer among the soldiers suddenly shouted out to ask.
The delicate little youth turned to cast him a glance, and did not speak, but instead bent his back to pick up the big eared rabbit that had come running back to him into his arms.
”Glutton.” The youth said with a glare, admonishing the greedy big eared rabbit who had run out in search for food.
”Meh!” A rounded little sheep who had come following behind the youth bleated, seemingly following its Master in berating the rabbit.
