As Jurim sat down and crossed his legs, the doctor warmly greeted him.
“Have you been well, Guild Master On? You seem to have a brighter expression than usual. Did something good happen at home?”
He rested his chin on his hand and smiled.
“You don’t need to probe. Yes, I adopted a child, and I’m happy about it.”
The doctor suddenly thought of the other S-ranks from Hyeonak.
Both Gidan and Nayeon smiled just like that when they brought up stories about Gru.
Before they knew it, Gru had become the center of conversation among the Hyeonak people.
“I’d like to see her once too. Just how adorable is this child that the Hyeonak people cherish her so preciously?”
“There will be an opportunity someday.”
Jurim’s feelings of wanting to wrap his daughter tightly in his arms and not show her to anyone were so clearly visible that she smiled softly.
The doctor stood up from her seat.
“Coffee?”
“I’m fine. I’m not that tired these days.”
“Oh, that’s really good to hear.”
She poured only her own coffee and sat down.
“It must be hard raising a child alone, right? I have two kids myself, and there’s so much to worry about when raising children…”
Jurim shuddered at those words.
“Ah… Rather than that, the suggestions to go on blind dates because it’s hard raising a child alone are more exhausting.”
It all started when a candy bag that Gru was holding, which he had bought from a convenience store while bringing along a string of reporters, was captured in paparazzi photos.
He had inadvertently been labeled with a doting father image, and it was around that time.
That the hardships began.
Jurim began receiving countless matchmaking proposals from Chairman Nam, asking how he could raise a child alone.
From corporate heirs to distinguished daughters of prestigious families.
When he declined by putting himself down as a widower with a child, the responses he got back were absurd.
They said that was actually more of a merit.
A previously untouchable commodity had gained human appeal as a doting father.
Chairman Nam kept insisting that people who would be good mothers to Gru were lining up, so he should at least meet them.
Not only that, but as if they had been waiting, requests came pouring in from dating shows that matched singles to parenting variety show casting calls.
“I didn’t even know dating variety shows existed. Why are there so many types… I mean, why would you go on TV to meet someone? And why do they want you to appear with your ex?”
As Jurim rambled on as if he had discovered some incomprehensible mystery, the doctor struggled to hold back her laughter.
He looks like a playboy but he’s quite the gentleman, isn’t he.
I can definitely see what they mean about gaining human appeal, but if I mention this, he’ll probably shudder again.
She redirected the conversation back to Gru.
“How is Gru doing?”
Jurim fell into thought for a moment before speaking.
“She’s outstanding.”
“You must be happy. You think you just want your child to grow up healthy, but then when they excel, you can’t help but be pleased about that too.”
“…”
Even at the doctor’s jest, Jurim kept his expression stiff as he tapped his knee with his fingers.
“Well. These days, I’m not entirely happy about it.”
“Hmm, did something happen?”
Jurim touched his forehead with a troubled expression.
“…It reminds me of my hyung.”
“You mean Hunter On Ijo?”
“Yes, probably…”
He clasped his hands together like a tower.
Though he spoke as if calmly, hesitation and caution could be felt.
“…I think I might be scared that the child will become like my hyung.”
On Jurim expressed his thoughts indirectly.
Considering his speech patterns that had been frank to the point of being brutally honest, this was quite surprising.
To prevent him from following in the footsteps of his overly exceptional hyung, he had become even more cautious.
“When you say ‘becoming like hyung,’ you mean sacrificing yourself, don’t you?”
“Yes, well.”
“I’m a civilian so I don’t know much, but Guild Master On is incredibly strong, isn’t he? Even with you here, do you think a disaster on the scale of the Tower could occur?”
“No, that won’t happen. As long as I’m here.”
Jurim spoke in a calm tone without even a moment’s hesitation.
It was a question he received often.
Each time, he gave the same consistent answer.
Unless the Tower returned, such a thing would never happen.
“Then you must have other threats in mind.”
“Well.”
Jurim smiled ambiguously.
The child was pure and kind.
And Jurim knew from experience that kindness could become poison.
His hyung had risked his life to conquer the Tower.
But even before that, On Ijo’s life had been nothing but sacrifice.
The leaders wanted to prepare for disasters, and he had willingly agreed.
His gentle and kind hyung had willingly participated in ‘experiments to preserve On Ijo’s power.’
Led by Korea and America, world-class research teams gathered in Korea one after another.
Project Wilderness.
Their purpose was to artificially recreate On Ijo’s power in preparation for On Ijo’s death.
Jurim finally realized where his uneasiness had stemmed from.
He was afraid of his family’s sacrifice being repeated once again.
Chapter Lack of Filial Piety
She became an official guild member!
Gru smiled contentedly in front of the Filial Piety Factory that was moving with clanking sounds.
The Filial Piety Factory, which had temporarily stopped operating after becoming a defective parachute, was once again continuing its work of producing potions.
It was all to supply Hyeonak.
After Jurim’s groundbreaking interview, ‘Jjapso’ had successfully debuted in Hyeonak.
Eavesdropping on Jurim’s phone calls that came day and night, it seemed there were many people within Hyeonak who were curious about Jjapso.
With this, Gru spent the night with her heart about to burst from excitement, nervousness, and elation, barely sleeping.
The next day.
She came out to the living room wearing her bear suit and pulling her new New Four-Wheeler Pro.
“…Where are you planning to go dressed like that?”
– Gru goes to work at the Company.
“On the weekend?”
– Mm!
On Jurim blocked Gru, who was trying to go to work majestically dressed as Jjapso.
“No, no. You don’t need to go.”
– But why? Everyone must be waiting for Gru.
On Jurim stripped off all of Gru’s Suit and sat her down gently on the Sofa.
“It’s fine if Gru just makes Items and delivers them.”
“But…”
Gru fidgeted with her hands clasped together.
All Gru had done at the Company so far was ride around on her Bicycle bragging about her Parachute, or huddle together with her oppas to study Korean.
She thought she could finally do proper Guild member work at the Company now.
As she pouted with sadness welling up, On Jurim hugged Gru tightly and comforted her.
“Great people don’t step forward directly.”
“Oh!”
And so the going-to-work incident that day was resolved…
‘Gru is a great Guild member!’
Gru grinned with her lips melting into a smile.
‘I should make lots of Potions and send them.’
Would everyone like them?
While Gru was excitedly waiting for the finished Potions.
Clumsy Doll No. 3’s feet slipped and it struggled desperately, bouncing Syrup Bottles around like catching live fish.
“Ah!”
As Gru was startled and tried to catch the Syrup Bottle and its arm, Mephistopheles flew swiftly and snatched up No. 3.
No. 3, caught by Mephistopheles and floating in the air, grimaced and swung its legs back and forth.
“Screech!”
Mephistopheles spun around in the air for no reason, then threw down No. 3 and landed gracefully.
Oh! When Gru clapped for him, Mepi flew to her shoulder and rubbed his cheek against her neck.
While Gru was giggling at this.
“Hm?”
She saw No. 3, who had returned to the Factory, struggling while holding an empty Syrup Bottle. Looking at the Other Floors, No. 1 and No. 2 were the same.
The Conveyor Belt had stopped, and the Syrup Tank was completely empty.
The Factory had stopped?
As the flustered Gru touched this and that, a popup window appeared.
[Insufficient Filial Piety Points invested!]
“Huh?”
Gru quickly rummaged through her piggy bank.
[Withdrawable Filial Piety Points: 3]
‘Only 3!’
Last time, she had completely emptied her fortune for Skill Level Up and poured all her points into Potion Making, leaving her piggy bank completely empty.
