Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 117
* * *
Sergey completed his employment at Hyeonak with the status of a trainee.
The condition was that while he was a trainee, he had to assist with the work as a trainee for Attack Team 1, and Gidan had to accompany him as his mentor.
And Han Gru, who heard the news about Sergey, was slightly shocked.
‘Gru doesn’t have a team…!’
Until now, there had been no other new employees besides Gru, so he hadn’t noticed until now.
It felt like being the only one in kindergarten without a class. It was like…
‘A loner?!’
Gru, who couldn’t come to his senses from the shock of this suddenly discovered fact, clung to On Jurim’s leg and asked in a trembling voice.
“What about Gru? Why doesn’t Gru have a team? Why is only Gru a loner?”
And On Jurim, who seemed particularly busy these days, looked like he found it bothersome to make excuses…
“You’re a parachute.”
…is what he said.
“Me, parachute?”
Until then, Gru only knew about parachutes as equipment used for jumping.
“What’s a parachute?”
“An amazing person that no one can carelessly mess with.”
“Wow!”
“That’s why you don’t have a team. Because they can’t mess with you.”
On Jurim patted his back and comforted Gru, telling him not to worry about it.
Gru covered his mouth with both hands and his eyes sparkled.
‘Gru is amazing! I’m a parachute!’
After that, Gru went around the company spinning in circles, bragging that he was actually a parachute.
“Team Leader. Gru is actually… a parachute.”
What was amazing was that everyone’s reaction was the same. Every person who heard it burst into laughter and hugged and petted Gru.
‘Is being a parachute really that amazing?’
Just how amazing of a person must one be that just hearing about being a parachute makes people adore Gru so much.
‘I shouldn’t reveal it carelessly.’
The more rice ripens, the more it bows its head. Gru decided to become humble as a parachute.
Anyway.
As Hyeonak’s parachute, Gru set a goal.
The beginning was like this.
Soon it would be a new school year, and when that time came, there was always education they received at kindergarten.
‘Welcoming friends!’
When the new school year begins, there are many friends who newly enter the kindergarten.
Friends who moved up from the same kindergarten can continue to get along well, but completely new faces might end up being left out if not careful.
In terms of Hyeonak….
‘New friend = Sergey!’
Gru had to take care of the newcomer so he wouldn’t feel left out.
Gru snorted.
Right now, Sergey was in a strange position within Hyeonak.
There was nothing good about revealing he was Gnosis, yet he had boldly shouted ‘I am Gnosis’ in the lobby.
To cover this up, Jurim took drastic measures….
“Say it’s chuunibyou.”
He explained that while Sergey was indeed talented, this had caused him to develop delusions.
The Hyeonak members accepted this excuse that barely qualified as an excuse quite easily.
They seemed to think a 16-year-old with chuunibyou who had suddenly gained great power and fallen into qi deviation was more believable than Gnosis coming to Hyeonak.
For this reason, Sergey became known in Hyeonak as a foreign boy severely afflicted with chuunibyou.
After that, whenever guild members saw Sergey, they either couldn’t hold back their laughter or clicked their tongues in pity.
“He looks perfectly normal though….”
“That’s all just a phase.”
And Sergey….
“Why do the humans in your guild keep grinning whenever they see me?”
He had absolutely no idea why they were showing such reactions.
“What the hell is chuuni anyway?”
Gidan was too busy laughing to be of any help, and Gru didn’t know what chuuni was either, so Sergey had to hear the full story from Jurim.
Jurim explained in a rather gentle tone.
“Ah, it’s nothing much, just means someone with delusions.”
“What?! How is that nothing much!”
Sergey was furious when he belatedly learned the truth, but what could he do? He had no choice but to accept it.
If he insisted again that he was Gnosis, they’d just think his chuunibyou was flaring up.
Rather than that, he seemed to think there was no need to correct the misunderstanding.
Since Sergey didn’t particularly want to get along with other people anyway.
But he couldn’t just leave it like that! Gru wanted to help Sergey adapt well to Hyeonak.
As if responding to this, a Quest window appeared.
[Caregiver Quest: Welcome Ceremony for New Caregiver!]
[Let’s welcome the new caregiver! Let’s help the caregiver who may not be comfortable in this unfamiliar environment make a friend to rely on.]
[Reward: Filial Piety Points 5,000]
And so….
Squeak squeak squeeeeak-
The children’s tricycle stopped in front of the break room.
From inside came the sound of Sergey and Gidan chatting quietly.
“I’ve never been to a dungeon as a team.”
“What? Why? Doesn’t Gnosis enter dungeons?”
“Why would I go in for strategy? I’m not even a hunter… Hm?”
Sergey spotted Han Gru and furrowed his brow. His face showed he was wondering what that strange thing was.
Han Gru smiled contentedly.
‘At least he’s talking with Dan.’
At first, he had been horrified about having to share dormitory space with Gidan, but after about a week, the two seemed to be getting along reasonably well.
– New S-rank hunter, Sergey.
“It talks too?”
When Sergey was surprised, Gidan giggled.
– Congratulations on joining Hyeonak. Now let’s have your initiation ceremony.
“What is this thing.”
Sergey pulled off the bear mask.
Han Gru stretched out both arms and flailed around trying to grab the bear mask.
“Eeeeeeng-”
“Don’t take that off. He gets angry.”
At Gidan’s words, Sergey put the mask back on. He turned to Gidan and asked.
“Have you done this initiation thing too?”
“Dan is already on a team with Han Gru.”
When Gidan held out his fist, Han Gru lightly bumped it with his bear paw.
– We’re a team.
Watching one person and one… creature(?) who got along so well, Sergey narrowed his eyes.
“Really gathered all the losers together. Ah!”
Duck tongs that had appeared out of nowhere struck Sergey’s thigh hard.
– Bad words will be punished.
“You were the one who called me a weakling first!”
– Hmph! That’s different.
Sergey rubbed his stinging thigh with an expression of deep injustice.
Then, Gidan spoke up as if he had a good idea.
“Weakling? Good, this initiation’s concept is weakling.”
– Oh, that sounds appealing. I’m in favor!
“Let’s go to a guerrilla dungeon! S-rank weakling minors!”
– Yeah-!
“Sigh.”
Sergey shook his head back and forth, then suddenly raised a question mark above his head.
“Don’t tell me this one’s going too?”
The Unfinished Bear’s face tilted curiously.
– Of course I’m going with you.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Hmph! Incomplete Bear mk.1 twitched its eyebrows as if finding this ridiculous.
– Sergey, Han Gru is also S-Rank.
Having completed the guardian registration, Han Gru comfortably revealed the secret.
“S-Rank isn’t some household pet’s name.”
But Sergey just snickered dismissively.
It was close to the mocking gaze and ridicule that Sergey had endured for his chuunibyou tendencies.
– …!
Han Gru’s shoulders trembled with humiliation, and Gidan burst into laughter.
Han Gru whined and pouted.
– It’s true! Han Gru doesn’t lie!
“That’s right, that’s right. Han Gru doesn’t lie.”
Unable to watch any longer, Gidan chimed in to help.
Sergey responded with “sure, sure” while turning to look at Gidan, then frowned.
“What’s with that weird expression?”
“I’m telling you Han Gru really is S-Rank?”
“What are you talking about!”
Gidan went behind Han Gru and patted her shoulders.
“Allow me to introduce you. S-Rank Production-type, Miss Han Gru!”
– Nice to meet you! I’m S-Rank Hunter Han Gru.
The Unfinished Bear raised one hand high in greeting.
Sergey opened his mouth with a dumbfounded expression.
Then that meant all those excavators and sprinklers he saw at the RP Dungeon Farm were Han Gru’s creations?
Sergey turned his head toward Gidan, creaking like a poorly oiled robot.
“Why?!”
