Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 137
“Hup-cha!”
Han Gru sat down on the floor with his bottom and opened his skill window.
‘Piggy Bank!’
Han Gru opened the piggy bank that accumulated Filial Piety Points when he received praise, and his mouth fell open.
‘20,000!’
Even now, the Filial Piety Points were continuously rising by 1.
It meant people everywhere were praising Han Gru.
“Ohhh…”
Han Gru let out an exclamation and his eyes sparkled.
Was it because of the gifts that Santa Gru had delivered?
“Hoop!”
Han Gru took another deep breath and puffed out his cheeks.
He was so excited that he almost screamed.
“Poo!”
Soon Han Gru exhaled and with a reverent heart used his Filial Piety Points to upgrade his skill ‘Extract Extract’ to the maximum.
It was enough to consume all the Filial Piety Points he had saved.
With this much, could he make it his own?
‘You, the Supreme Acorn!’
Han Gru took out the acorn from his inventory and had a brief staring contest with a challenging expression.
Hmph! Han Gru snorted and cast his skill.
[Activating skill ‘Extract Extract’.]
Soon a Star Candy with a brilliant glow came into his hands.
Han Gru held the Star Candy in both hands and raised it high to the sky.
He did it! Both arms trembled.
“Gru, supreme…!”
[Star Candy Imbued with Elixir (SSS)]
A special power of purification is imbued within.
SSS-rank! His vision spun and his chest felt like it would burst.
‘Now I’ll knead this and this together…’
Han Gru also took out the ‘Suspicious Star Candy’ from his Vassal Quest reward and looked at the Snow Rabbit he had just made.
‘Hmm.’
Instead of ears, two leaves were randomly stuck in, but it was still cute enough.
Finally, he placed the ‘Star Candy Imbued with Elixir’ and ‘Suspicious Star Candy’ on the Snow Rabbit and cast his skill.
[Activating skill ‘Knead Knead’.]
‘Thump thump.’
[You have created your first blood relative.]
[Achievement: 【Great Creation】 Achieved!]
‘Blood relative?’
From the pure white face, jet-black eyes sparkled open. The eyes embedded like black beans blinked a couple of times.
Then the leaves buried themselves into the snow, and sprouts with two cotyledons popped out.
“Kyuu…”
A tiny Snow Rabbit that had scurried over rubbed its cheek against the back of Han Gru’s hand.
When the ticklish white fur touched him, Han Gru smiled broadly.
“So soft.”
When Han Gru burst into clear laughter, Mephistopheles, who had been sitting on his head watching with wary eyes, trembled his shoulders as if shocked.
Mephistopheles looked at Han Gru and the Snow Rabbit with a burning face.
“Chirp!”
He kicked the Baby Snow Rabbit.
“Kyuut!”
The Snow Rabbit that was suddenly kicked let out a death cry.
As the rabbit with teary eyes trembled pitifully, the snow clump that had been cotton candy-sized shrank smaller than Han Gru’s fist.
“Mepi! You can’t be mean to Younger Sibling.”
“Kyuuu…”
The Snow Rabbit slowly approached Han Gru and gently melted its body.
“Oh!”
It disappeared?!
That’s when it happened.
He felt a ticklish sensation at the crown of his head.
When he touched his head, two cotyledons had sprouted from his crown.
“Huh?”
‘Sprouts grew on Han Gru’s head!’
While Han Gru was amazed, Mephistopheles was in shock with an expression as if he had lost his country.
“Chirp-!”
Mepi, who had his spot stolen, fiercely pecked at the sprouts with his beak.
“Kyuuu!”
The sprouts cried sadly as they dodged here and there to avoid the rushing attacks.
“Hey, stop it-”
Mepi seemed to be more jealous than expected.
The sprouts became a marble-sized Snow Rabbit again and slowly moved to Han Gru’s palm.
Hmph! Mephistopheles snorted and puffed up his feathers proudly, then sat majestically on Han Gru’s head as if showing off his victory.
Han Gru carefully comforted the crying Snow Rabbit.
“Sigh, raising a baby is so hard.”
Han Gru shook his head back and forth.
Just then, the Snow Rabbit’s runny nose stretched out long and dropped to the floor with a plop.
The moment the snot touched the softly piled snow, the surroundings stirred.
And then.
Ding!
[To the cradle…]
Pop!
‘Huh?’
The Status Window was definitely about to appear.
‘It disappeared before it could even finish!’
At the same time, two sprout leaves fell from the Snow Rabbit with a plop.
‘Eh!’
When the sprouts fell, the trembling Snow Rabbit flipped over and showed its round belly.
‘Gasp!’
Han Gru swallowed his saliva while holding the Snow Rabbit with both hands.
‘It, it’s dead…’
What should he do?
Was this how he was saying goodbye to Han Gru’s first blood relative (whatever it was)?
While Han Gru was frozen in shock.
“Chirp!”
Mephistopheles flew up again and kicked the Snow Rabbit’s round belly.
The Snow Rabbit rolled to the side and made a weak groaning sound.
“Kyuut…”
“St, stop! Stop it!”
Now it might really die!
Han Gru grabbed Mephistopheles with both hands and placed him back on his head, then let out a deep sigh.
‘It’s not dead.’
It wasn’t goodbye after all, what a relief. Han Gru gently put the purring, sleeping Snow Rabbit into his bag.
After the commotion settled down, On Suhyung, who had been staring at his mobile phone for a while, called Han Gru.
“Gru, would you like to go inside with Grandfather for a moment?”
“Yees-”
When Han Gru came running over, Suhyeong quickly bent down and scooped the child into his arms.
“Oh my, did you have fun playing?”
“Yes!”
“That’s good. Gru likes this big house too, right? That house next door also has a garden this big. It’s good for running around, and you can make as many snowmen as you want.”
“Woaah-!”
Suhyeong gently coaxed Han Gru as he went into the house, warmed Han Gru’s face and hands with his large hands, then lifted him up and sat him on the sofa.
Then, after checking something on his mobile phone, he turned on the TV and flipped through the channels.
Just then, a special interview was starting on a news program.
Gru checked today’s interviewee and blinked a few times before leaning his head forward.
No matter how he looked at it, that was…
“Dad?”
The man sitting with his legs crossed and a bored expression was definitely Jurim.
* * *
“Today we have the great honor of having Guild Master On Jurim with us. Hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
The anchor turned his gaze to the handsome face, looking a bit nervous.
He smiled with a relaxed expression like a seasoned broadcaster.
“I’m On Jurim from Hyeonak. Thank you for having me.”
The anchor had to struggle to hide his excited expression.
He had requested the interview without much expectation, but who would have thought he’d eagerly accept as if he’d been waiting for it.
That On Jurim had suddenly sent word saying ‘I’ll do the interview. But I want to appear on today’s live broadcast,’ so they had hurriedly prepared this session.
“I understand you’ve been spending very busy days due to this potion crisis. How do you view the future outlook?”
“The situation has improved considerably, and negotiations are proceeding smoothly, so the outlook is optimistic. All the officials are working hard, so I hope you’ll watch over us with understanding.”
“If there were any personally difficult aspects for you…”
“Well, it’s hard because my daughter doesn’t acknowledge that I’m working this busily.”
A sloth, she called him. As Jurim let out a small sigh, the anchor burst into laughter.
After several formal questions and answers about the potion crisis, the anchor brought up the next question.
“From Gidan Hunter entering rank 3 to Shin Nayeon Hunter becoming S-rank, it’s no exaggeration to say that all eyes have been on Hyeonak recently. For the past few days, claims that the famous ‘Santa’ belongs to Hyeonak have been spreading like wildfire. Hyeonak has consistently maintained a no-comment stance, but those ambiguous responses have also sparked suspicions. Do you have anything to say about this today, Guild Master On Jurim?”
“Hmm.”
Jurim, who had been tapping his thigh with his legs crossed, soon opened his mouth lightly.
“Yes, that famous Awakened is at Hyeonak.”
“Yes… as expected… yes?”
He had expected a formal answer saying they couldn’t confirm it. The anchor was so flustered that he was speechless for a moment.
At this, Jurim spoke once more clearly as if driving the point home.
“The production-type Awakened who recently became famous for potion donations is indeed affiliated with Hyeonak.”
