The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death Chapter 147

PHA – Chapter 147 – Milu Rabbit Going on a Rampage

Alice had also used Mind Search when she arrived at this grove. However, as she was in a hurry to answer Heris's call at the time, she only did a cursory scan to make sure that there were no people or listening devices nearby.

Meanwhile, after ending her call with Heris, Alice focused on using her Mind Search this time. So, she had managed to obtain slightly different results this time.

The Elven Forest was massive. The elven village might be situated inside the forest, but it occupied only a small part of the central region. The rest of the forest was occupied by various species of magical creatures.

Meanwhile, when Alice expanded her Mind Search underground, she found a family of Milu Rabbits living beneath her. Moreover, probably because they shared similar traits as rabbits, these Milu Rabbits had created a network of burrows that led to various parts of the forest.

However, Alice wasn't here to admire the complexity of the rabbit warren. According to her Mind Search's feedback, she found an interesting object inside the warren.

Unfortunately, Mind Search was only a simple spell with a detection function. It didn't have an observation function, so the only information she acquired was that this peculiarity was a small, oval object capable of producing mana.

Did the Milu Rabbits pick it up and bring it back to their warren by accident?

Because Alice had a Milu Rabbit as a pet, she had gone out of her way to research the habits of Milu Rabbits online. However, none of the information she found mentioned that one could find such a peculiar object in the warren of Milu Rabbits. So, Alice suspected that the object was something these wild Milu Rabbits had picked up from the outside world.

However, the burrows leading to the warren were very small, and they definitely couldn't fit a human. So, after giving the matter some thought, Alice untied the Milu Rabbit hanging off her waist.

She was going to use Milu Rabbit to fight Milu Rabbits!

After approaching the nearest burrow, Alice gave the unconscious Milu Rabbit a few taps on its head, waking it up.

Meanwhile, after the unconscious Milu Rabbit regained consciousness, it quickly noticed that Alice was crouching down and looking at it. Startled by this situation, it promptly tried to find something to knock itself unconscious with.

However, Alice had already expected this to happen, so when she crouched down, she had also put her right foot on the Milu Rabbit's long, bushy tail, preventing it from running away.

“My dear Milu Rabbit, I need you to find something for me.”

After saying so, Alice extended her right hand and used mana to draw a palm-sized oval-shaped object. She also tried to mimic the object's mana fluctuations as much as possible.

Although there would undoubtedly be differences between her drawing and the object inside the warren, it was fine so long as she could convey her point to the Milu Rabbit. After all, no other objects in the warren resembled her mana drawing.

Speaking of which, having a language barrier is indeed very troublesome. I wonder if the Milu Rabbit understands what I'm saying?

Alice couldn't help but sigh when she looked at the Milu Rabbit that was still struggling to run away. Although she had drawn a replica of the object using mana, she wasn't sure if the Milu Rabbit could understand what she was trying to get it to do.

It would've been great if she knew how to speak the language of the Milu Rabbits. In that case, it would become much easier for her to convey her thoughts to her Milu Rabbit. Unfortunately, talking with beasts was still a challenging topic for this world, and nobody had yet to invent a spell that allowed people to converse with beasts.

Although there existed a beast tamer occupation, the beasts these beast tamers tamed typically possessed high intelligence, and they could more or less understand human words. Either that or these beast tamers would use specific mana fluctuations to command beasts.

Unfortunately, Milu Rabbits were creatures with pitifully small brains. They were anything but intelligent. While they could still be trained to follow simple mana fluctuations, that required a long training period, and Alice didn't have the spare time to do that.

“Whatever. Let's hope you don't disappoint me,” Alice said as she rubbed the struggling Milu Rabbit's head. Then, she added, “I'll give you a name if you bring back what I want.”

After saying so, Alice removed her foot that was stepping on the Milu Rabbit's tail. Then, when the Milu Rabbit sensed that it was free, it promptly charged into the burrow located directly before it.

Meanwhile, Alice cast another Mind Search and followed her Milu Rabbit's tracks. Although the Milu Rabbit was undoubtedly searching for something to knock itself unconscious right now, the burrows were built using soft soil. So, the Milu Rabbit couldn't knock itself unconscious using the burrow walls even if it wanted to.

Failing to find any hard objects, the Milu Rabbit started to grow anxious. After running about in the interconnecting burrows for some time, it eventually reached the warren and came across the object Alice wanted it to bring out.

After arriving inside the warren, the Milu Rabbit also took notice of the object in question. The object looked somewhat similar to the drawing Alice had shown it previously, so it couldn't help but stop and hesitate for a moment as it looked at the object. Eventually, though, it chose to pick up the object with its mouth and ran into another burrow.

During its journey across the network of burrows, Alice's Milu Rabbit came across others of its kind. However, there was a fundamental difference between Alice's Milu Rabbit and the wild Milu Rabbits. Compared to Alice's Milu Rabbit, the wild ones had much weaker heads. So, Alice's Milu Rabbits easily knocked the wild Milu Rabbits unconscious without losing consciousness itself.

With its desires unfulfilled, Alice's Milu Rabbit continued rampaging around the burrows until it finally charged out of an exit. Then, it charged headfirst into a large tree, creating dense cracks on the tree trunk before finally losing consciousness with a peaceful expression on its face.
