Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 106
Gidan leaped off the head of the roaring contaminated creature and sliced the Thunder Heaven Sword’s blade in a zigzag pattern.
The moment Gidan landed, the Thunder Heaven Sword crumbled to dust with a pop sound and disappeared.
‘These bastards…’
Breaking my skill right in front of me?
It’s not like they’re toying with people. Cheon Gyuri bit her lip as her pride was crushed.
Even if it wasn’t full power, she never expected them to block it so easily…
On Jurim, that monster, was one thing, but even Gidan, whom she secretly thought was beneath her, had grown tremendously.
“Guild Master Cheon.”
Then On Jurim’s slow voice called out to her.
“Guild Master On Jurim… How did you get here…”
Cheon Gyuri, feeling guilty, stammered as she spoke. She felt awkward treating him as usual because she had something to feel guilty about.
“Why do you think I came?”
“You came for national defense, of course…”
“As if.”
On Jurim laughed out loud as if he had heard something truly ridiculous.
Grind, Cheon Gyuri gritted her teeth.
Is that something to treat as a joke? Anyway, all the Hyeonak guys are thugs without exception.
“My daughter was indebted to you.”
The laughter had already disappeared from On Jurim’s face.
“My daughter was scammed, and that scammer is Guild Master Cheon Gyuri’s young master, I hear?”
Cheon Gyuri stiffened and gulped down her saliva.
They said he went crazy over his daughter, and Gu Shinhu was right.
That guy really has ghostly intuition.
“So I thought I’d take this opportunity to be indebted to you once myself.”
Indebted? Cheon Gyuri’s lips twitched.
“What kind of… debt… are you planning to owe me…”
“It wouldn’t be fun if you knew in advance.”
Ha, haha… Cheon Gyuri laughed awkwardly as if she had heard an unfunny joke.
‘In this national crisis situation, did On Jurim come here just to torment me to death?’
“…”
“…”
A moment of silence fell in the situation where she couldn’t easily respond.
Shin Nayeon and Gidan, who came with On Jurim, were doing their own work regardless of whether there was awkward silence between them.
When Shin Nayeon wrapped it with vines, the contaminated creature lost its strength and melted away.
“It works.”
“Oh, awesome.”
Gidan let out an exclamation.
While Nayeon and Gidan were chatting away, Cheon Gyuri thought they were quite typical Hyeonak folks and clicked his tongue.
What to do about this.
Anyway, it was true that Ham Honggi had deceived On Jurim’s daughter, so his mouth tasted bitter. He was also afraid of the consequences after refusing.
Jurim tilted his head slightly and urged for an answer.
“You’ll help, right?”
“….”
Why should I help you when I don’t even know what this is about… The words he couldn’t bring himself to say dangled in Cheon Gyuri’s throat.
Jurim absentmindedly looked at his watch and let out a sigh.
“You know how inconvenient it is when your watch breaks down, right?”
“….”
With a bored expression, Jurim crossed his arms.
“Your answer is slow. Isn’t that national defense thing urgent?”
Is he crazy? Anyone listening would think I’m the only one living in Korea.
Damn it, I don’t know anymore. Cheon Gyuri swallowed his saliva and tried to answer calmly.
“Whose business is it that I wouldn’t help? It’s Gilma On’s business, so I should help you. Of course….”
Jurim smiled faintly and nodded.
“Thank you.”
“But Gilma On, how did you come here? Did the Main Base send you here?”
This place was quite far from the Main Base. So Cheon Gyuri naturally thought those Hyeonak guys would have come here through the Main Base.
‘Hyeonak would have detained them for a bit if they were looking for them.’
He was admiring the Main Base’s loyalty for stubbornly sending those guys all the way here.
In response to Cheon Gyuri’s question, Nayeon, who was wrapping vines to build a dam to prevent contamination from crossing over, answered instead.
“Huh? There was no one there, so we came here?”
What? Cheon Gyuri furrowed his brow.
“That can’t be….”
“The barracks were all destroyed too, so we thought everyone was here.”
“Even the barracks?”
No way. What happened?
Suddenly, the situation where Brom Team 1, including himself as the top fighting force, had all moved to the outskirts came to mind.
“Only our Team 1 moved this way. The Main Base shouldn’t be empty.”
It was when Cheon Gyuri, who had spoken urgently, was about to look toward the Main Base.
All the S-Ranks simultaneously turned their gazes in one direction.
Everyone felt it.
A chillingly enormous power.
“What the hell is this….”
Cheon Gyuri let out words like a groan, and Nayeon and Gidan also couldn’t hide their bewildered expressions as they waited for Jurim’s instructions.
The only fortunate thing was that the source of the power wasn’t at the location where the Main Base was.
After pondering for a moment, Jurim felt a chill in his left hand and frowned.
“I’ll go check that place, so you two go to the Main Base together. That’s okay, right? Guild Master Cheon.”
“Ah, yes. Understood.”
Cheon Gyuri nodded her head.
She was curious about the source of that power, but more than that, she was puzzled by the fact that the main base was empty.
‘Please let nothing bad have happened…’
What if the being with that power had attacked the main base?
‘No one would have survived.’
Even if she had been there, she wouldn’t have been able to stop it.
For the first time in her life, Cheon Gyuri thought it was fortunate that On Jurim had come, and immediately moved toward the main base, with Nayeon and Gidan following behind her.
* * *
[You have entered the ‘Cradle of Blood Kin’.]
-Cradle of Blood Kin. The Lord’s territory, meaning the origin of life. Within the territory, the Lord reigns over the blood kin.
Along with that notification, what rushed into Ham Honggi was a cold that seemed to freeze him to the bone.
‘Cold.’
In an instant, it felt like even his brain had frozen. His eyes moved downward with creaking sounds.
‘What the hell is this?’
Thud!
‘I can’t… breathe…’
Ham Honggi fell to his knees, unable to even breathe properly.
It felt like his throat was being strangled.
The cold and pressure he felt from this small child, the terrifyingly immense power.
He wanted to scratch his constricted throat, but it was difficult to move even a single finger with his own strength.
Right now, he was nothing but a lowly creature before a supreme being.
[The Lord confiscates the authority of the subordinate.]
[Special Skills disappear.]
‘No! If the Special Skills disappear-!’
But contrary to his thoughts, Ham Honggi slammed his head hard against the floor until blood appeared on his forehead.
Against his will, his body followed the command.
Thunk!
Ham Honggi slammed his head hard once more, as if performing a rather violent bow.
This spread to the Snow Leopards like dominoes.
And Han Gru was…
‘Gru, why did I become the boss?’
…rolling his eyes as he looked at the Snow Leopards kneeling and bowing their heads before him.
‘Of course, I wanted to be the boss every day…’
There was one thing he could guess.
The delegation of the title ‘Lord’.
So this was what Mephistopheles’ title could do… Suddenly, elation rushed through him. Han Gru lightly clenched and unclenched his hand.
No one had taught me, but my instincts knew that I had the authority to do anything.
Right now, immense power was breathing within Han Gru. Not just as a king of squirrels, but as if he had truly become a king of the world!
Heat rose to his face and his heart pounded.
“Ham Honggi.”
Ham Honggi trembled pitifully and bowed his head. He looked like a believer before a god.
Han Gru pulled in his chin and spoke in a solemn voice.
“Now live properly.”
Ham Honggi spoke in a pained voice, barely audible as if it might break.
“…I accept, your command.”
After finishing his words, he slammed his forehead hard against the ground again.
Blood flowed from his forehead, and it looked painful enough to make Han Gru flinch once, but he managed to compose his expression.
[Would you like to register ‘Ham Honggi’ as a familiar?]
‘Familiar?’
Though he didn’t know what it meant, Han Gru pressed the answer he usually gave in such situations.
Yes.
Now wasn’t the time to leisurely contemplate.
“You all go back and do what you need to do.”
“Yes.”
“Don’t follow Han Gru.”
“We accept your command!”
The Snow Leopards all answered with resounding voices.
Flutter!
The baby Sky Squirrel turned around magnificently, his skirt hem fluttering.
