Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 1

Chapter1 IAMGROOT123

Creak creak creeeeak creak.

A Children’s Tricycle rolled into the dark dungeon.

What appeared pedaling energetically was an ugly large teddy bear doll the size of a small child. It was from the ‘Unfinished Bear’ series that was popular among kids these days.

The carelessly made bear doll with sparkling eyes and droopy eyebrows turned its head with creaking sounds.

Soon after, a distorted mechanical voice flowed out from inside the doll.

– C-rank Hunter Jang Younghung. You seem to be in a crisis.

Fuck. I’m not dreaming because I’m about to die, am I? Jang Younghung lay on the dungeon floor, only rolling his eyes to stare at the bear doll.

He knew all too well what that thing was.

It had already been 10 years since awakened ones appeared along with the system.

The number of awakened ones kept increasing, and it was now an era where concept freaks drunk on madness were running rampant.

Attention seekers among attention seekers.

While there were harmful trolls who insisted on Close Combat despite being mages, there also existed those whose attention-seeking tendencies manifested nicely, earning them praise as beneficial concept freaks, and this guy was one of them.

The name hunters called him was ‘Jjapso’.

It was a nickname that came about because he appeared in the same manner as the serial killer ‘Jigsaw’ from the movie 【Saw】, who sent his own puppet.

Jjapso was a merchant who made that ugly bear doll infiltrate dungeons and sold items he made through direct transactions.

Despite his bizarre concept that could have earned him unfavorable looks, he was quite well-regarded among hunters due to his cheap prices and good quality that matched his madness.

When there was no response from his target, Jjapso tilted his head curiously.

– Already dead?

“Is this fun for you? Huh?!”

Annoyed, Jang Younghung just flapped his mouth while lying there.

It was true that Jang Younghung was in a crisis.

His mistake was thinking that a mere D-rank Dungeon would be sufficient to handle alone.

He had easily dealt with the boss mob, but the poison was the problem.

The poison that the boss mob shot as its final struggle had invaded his wounds, and as a result, even after clearing the dungeon, he ended up unable to move and lying there.

While he was lying there paralyzed with nothing to do, waiting for the Management Bureau to discover him, Jjapso had appeared.

Regardless of such circumstances, the teddy bear doll, having confirmed that his target was alive, delivered his familiar sales pitch.

– C-rank Hunter Jang Younghung. Will you choose death? Or will you purchase this ultimate item, the one and only elixir that will restore vitality to your weary life?

As soon as he finished speaking, the doll’s soft hand opened the zipper on its belly. Then it rummaged through the white cotton and pulled out two syrup bottles that looked like something children would consume.

– Instant Antidote.

“…!”

Instant Antidote could only be crafted by B-rank or higher hunters.

As rumored, his skill really was proportional to his madness. How was that even possible?

For a hunter—especially a hunter in a life-or-death situation from poison—this was literally insane performance itself!

He had no choice but to open his wallet.

“How much…!”

When he asked through gritted teeth, Jjapso answered as if he had been waiting for it.

– Bitter Taste is 1,189,900 won, Sweet Strawberry Syrup Flavor is 1,999,900 won. These are first-time customer preferential discount prices.

Jang Younghung grimaced at the outrageous price difference.

“What’s the difference!”

The Unfinished Bear tilted its head as if wondering why he didn’t know.

Those drooping, pitiful eyebrows made Jang Younghung even more irritated.

– Bitter Taste is bitter, and Sweet Strawberry Syrup Flavor is sweet.

Jang Younghung briefly reflected on how shitty life was.

No, no. Even with this bullshit, it’s still cheaper than the others.

If he got help from the Management Bureau now, it would definitely cost more than double that price.

“Give me your account!”

– Payment is only possible through Onion Pay.

Onion Pay was the currency used in Onion Market, which was a secondhand marketplace that allowed anonymous transactions.

Due to its tax-free nature, it was often operated like a black market through word of mouth, and tax evasion and crimes frequently occurred there.

“If I report you for tax evasion-”

– If you don’t need it, I’ll leave.

The bicycle spun around.

“Ah, fine!! Bitter taste! Give me the bitter taste!”

– Good.

Jjapso held out a contract. He opened the pen cap with his mouth and spat it out, then bit the end of the pen with his mouth and scribbled his signature.

Jjapso took the contract and stuffed it into his belly.

– Oh, if you leave a 5-star photo review on Onion Market, I’ll send you an Earth Candy as a service that increases your strength stat by 1 for 5 minutes. Well then, good luck.

With those words, the children’s bicycle headed back outside the dungeon.

Creak creak creak.

【Photo of syrup bottle placed on palm】

Hard at work doing business.

Bought Bitter Taste.

[Comments]

– Bitter Taste lmfaooooo

– What’s Bitter Taste?

? Very bitter

Very bitter lolololol

What grade do you think Jjapso is?

At least B-grade crafter

Shit B-grade? That’s insane

If it’s B-rank, even after taxes it’s freaking amazing, but is this person unregistered?

Don’t know, looking at their concept they seem to be doing this in a roundabout way

– What is that thing

Instant Antidote

How much?

With the 5% discount, it’s around 1.1 million won

They’re selling that for around 1 million won? I’m going to get poisoned just to meet God Jjapso too

Nope~ You can’t meet them~~

Yeah, if you die then that’s it~~~

Buy the strawberry flavor, that stuff is bitter as hell

– What is the Awakener Investigation Unit doing? Aren’t they properly cracking down on illegal trades?

The King Awakener God Investigation Unit members are too busy getting drunk on taxpayer money to have time for crackdowns?

– Is Jjapso a woman?

Please be a woman please be a woman please be a woman please be a woman please be a woman

So what if she’s a woman, what could you possibly do

Jjapso’s true identity was a hairy, scruffy old man

Based on the madness level, I predict a 30-year-old loner who wasted their 20s on the internet

– Honestly, I’m really curious.. What kind of person could they be?

[Review Section]

– Hunter Eunjae Mom: Our guild members are so happy~~~^^ Thumbs up! Giving you 5 stars~~~

When they pressed ‘like’ on the review left on Onion Market, a popup appeared saying Onion Pay had been accumulated.

[50 OP earned!]

Quite a bit has accumulated. Han Gru was smiling contentedly while checking their Onion Pay when it happened.

“Our Gru, didn’t the teacher say you shouldn’t look at your phone during class?”

The homeroom teacher of Chick Class looked down at the child.

“You did say that…”

Gru put the Kids Phone into a small character bag. They would have to send the Earth Candy for the review service later.

“Now, now, everyone look here. Let’s sing along again~ All together~”

The children became one and began singing the nursery rhyme.

Gru also sat up straight in their seat and sang along.

Cool Tomato was Gru’s favorite song.

“I will~ become ketchup~ I will~ dance~ Cool Tomato~”

Even though everyone was curious about Jjapso, the reason they couldn’t find them was obvious.

The crafting hunter consumed by madness, Jjapso.

Because he was just a kindergartener.

Four years old this year. Han Gru, who attended the Chick Class at Saebom Kindergarten, was an S-rank Crafting Ability user.
