Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 122
Gru also smiled along with her, then looked at the poster again.
School festival!
‘This looks fun!’
As she scanned through the poster thoroughly, she spotted a familiar name among the celebration stage performers.
‘Oh!’
Gru jumped up abruptly.
“Gru, where are you going?”
“Where are you going?”
Gidan and Sergey asked simultaneously.
“Yeah! Gru’s going to Nayeon unnie!”
Leaving the two puzzled men behind, Gru headed to Nayeon’s office.
‘Lee Romi unnie is coming!’
A few days after parting with Romi like that, Nayeon received contact from Romi.
Since then, they had been continuously exchanging messages.
Though it seemed they hadn’t been able to meet again due to conflicting schedules.
Actually, it wasn’t clear whether it was because their schedules didn’t match, or if Lee Romi was deliberately avoiding meeting.
But if Lee Romi comes to the festival? They’ll have a chance to meet each other!
When Gru opened the door to Nayeon’s office, Nayeon’s eyes widened.
“Our Gru, what brings you here? Weren’t you supposed to be studying with the Management Team?”
Due to Gidan being dragged away making dying sounds every time, the fact that the three of them were studying together was famous even within Hyeonak.
“Unnie, unnie! Let’s go to Dan’s school festival together!”
“Huh? Festival?”
She looked at the name Gru was pointing to with surprise, then soon smiled brightly.
* * *
The festival day at Justitia International School dawned.
Since it was the only day when ordinary people could also enter, the school campus was bustling with people from all over.
Behind the school campus that felt majestically large.
In a van parked in one corner of the parking lot, Romi, who had been playing her original song, looked up at the sound of knocking on the window.
“We’re here.”
Nayeon waved her hand. Next to her, only a tiny child’s hand peeked out, waving from side to side.
“Oh! Just a moment.”
When she opened the van door, Nayeon entered with Gru.
– Looking up at the billboard that contained your face…
As the lyrics flowed out, Romi’s face turned bright red and she hurriedly stopped the song playback.
【F】 was a song containing Romi’s autobiographical lyrics, and it was embarrassing to listen to in front of the person who had been the subject matter.
Although she had put her dream of being a singer behind her and was focusing on her path as an Actor-
Recently, after receiving recommendations from an idol who was enjoying phenomenal popularity, it spread like a trend centered on short-form content, and her stardom as a singer was newly emerging.
Shin Nayeon smiled brightly as she looked at Romi, whose face had turned red.
“I listen to 【F】 every single day these days. It’s really good.”
At that, Romi chuckled. She knew that Shin Nayeon posted promotional messages on her social media stories every day.
She didn’t seem to think at all that it contained stories about herself.
‘Seriously, she really has no clue.’
She shook her head, and then Han Gru also started showering her with praise.
“It’s super duper good! Romi unnie is gonna get 1st place on Music Ranking.”
“Right, I think so too!”
Hehehe, the two of them grinned foolishly as they looked at Romi.
They’re exactly the same. Romi let out a laugh as if she was dumbfounded.
She wanted to maintain a cold and aloof image, but the corners of her mouth wouldn’t come down.
Romi twirled the ends of her hair and shrugged her shoulders.
“I don’t need to get 1st place… but it wouldn’t be bad if I did.”
In truth, she was incredibly excited, but pretending not to expect anything was a habit formed from past failures.
“When are you performing on Stage today? How much time is left?”
“I have about 3 hours left.”
Romi checked the time on her Mobile Phone, then suddenly pulled out a Suitcase, placed it on her knees, and opened the lid.
“Pick one.”
Inside the Suitcase were various shaped Sunglasses arranged so diversely that it resembled an Eyeglass Store.
She looked at the two pairs of bewildered Eyes and quickly rattled off an excuse.
“It’s hard to have fun when people bother you.”
All the Sunglasses came in sets of two.
Shin Nayeon, who had been wondering why there were two of each, smiled sheepishly and pointed to one.
“Let’s go with this one.”
Heart-shaped Sunglasses.
Ever since they had promised to wear these and go to Garosu-gil together someday, Romi had bought and treasured them.
Romi, who smiled softly, also picked up the same Sunglasses.
Then she turned her gaze to Han Gru and pointed to the Star-shaped Sunglasses next to them.
“Then the kid can have these.”
“…!”
Han Gru grabbed the Sunglasses with an excited face.
‘Han Gru gets to wear Sunglasses together with the unnies too…!’
Thump thump.
But-
“Won’t they be too big for Han Gru?”
Shin Nayeon was right.
Romi picked up the Star-shaped Sunglasses and held them up to Han Gru, then nodded.
“That’s right. It’s too big, so it won’t work.”
Clang-!
Gru, who had been forcibly pushing up the sunglasses that came down to the tip of his nose, drooped his shoulders dejectedly.
“Then, can’t Gru wear sunglasses?”
When he mumbled in disappointment, Romi and Nayeon frantically tried to comfort Gru.
“Then let’s all not wear them!”
“Right! We can just go without them!”
Gru shook his head vigorously.
‘The sisters can’t miss out on fun because of Gru.’
We finally met again after such difficulty…
Sniff, Gru was sniffling when he suddenly had an exclamation mark appear above his head.
“Ah, I can make it smaller with this!”
Gru rummaged through his bag and pulled out a band.
[Playing is the Best! Kororo Children’s Band (C)]
Items with this band attached become small children’s toys. It contains the wishes of children.
*Does not apply to all items, so use with caution.
When he wrapped and attached the band around the frame, the sunglasses became small like children’s ones.
“Wh-what is this?”
Romi, whose eyes had widened, cupped Gru’s cheeks with both hands as if squeezing them.
“This baby was a Hunter too?!”
“Yes!”
“Yeah. Our Gru is also from Hyeonak. Amazing, right?”
“Even though he’s still such a baby?”
Romi turned his face this way and that in amazement, as if truly surprised.
“Wow, amazing…”
Hehe, Gru showed a proud smile.
“Gru can do this too.”
Finally, this day has come.
Gru solemnly pulled out the duck clip.
Clack clack!
“Look at this. There’s nothing inside.”
After showing the empty interior, he injected magical power to create a snow duck.
“But then? Ta-da! A snow duck appears!”
“Wow!”
“So cute!”
Romi and Nayeon responded with thunderous applause.
Gru bowed proudly in greeting.
Clap clap clap clap!
“Thank you! Thank you!”
Romi, who had been clapping enthusiastically, suddenly rolled her eyes around.
“…?”
She pondered something for a moment, then whispered quietly to Nayeon.
“But does your guild also look at hunters’ faces when recruiting?”
Such a young child wouldn’t have some great ability to enter a large guild like Hyeonak. She had reached the conclusion that ‘maybe it’s just because he’s cute?’
Romi looked back and forth between Gru and Nayeon, then continued while thinking of Gidan.
“Guild Master On must really care about looks.”
Is that so? Nayeon thought of Gru, whom he had brought after declaring he wouldn’t accept new recruits, and Sergey, who was the last new member. Sergey was also a pretty boy.
“Yeah. I think so.”
“Oh my….”
The misunderstanding was deepening.
As Gru’s snow duck show ended, Romi opened the van door.
The three got out of the van.
Romi, Nayeon, and Gru stood side by side on the roadside and put on sunglasses.
Click, click, click.
“Kids, let’s go.”
“Let’s go.”
“Yeah-!”
The three slipped through the crowd like eels.
* * *
The weather was perfectly cool for walking around, but not for Gru who had come fully bundled up.
‘It’s hot!’
When Gru panted from the heat, Nayeon and Romi each held Gru’s padded jacket and scarf, and only then could the three fully enjoy the festival.
Nayeon broke the punch machine, so Romi had to drag Nayeon and Gru away to escape.
There were some incidents like when men kept pestering them for phone numbers and Gru hit them with duck clips, almost starting a fight.
‘So delicious…!’
Gru crunched on tanghulu while looking around, then bought two ugly quokka keychains as souvenirs for Sergey and Jurim.
‘It would have been nice if Sergey hyung came too.’
He couldn’t bring him because Sergey had waved his hand saying he wasn’t interested in such things.
Gru opened the Quest window and let out a deep sigh.
The Quest to make a friend for Sergey to rely on was still at a standstill.
