Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 158

 

Click! Click!

 

As flashes burst from all directions, Gru swallowed her saliva.

 

‘There are too many people!’

 

A pressure incomparable to presenting at kindergarten overwhelmed her.

 

‘I’m scared.’

 

Soon the deer would come out and pass by Gru, followed by the hunter appearing while looking around.

 

Then Gru would have to tell the hunter where the deer was.

 

‘Oh, what should I do. Everything’s spinning!’

 

Behind her, the other children were also restless and didn’t know what to do with so many audience members.

 

Then suddenly she made eye contact with On Jurim.

 

Noticing that Gru was extremely nervous, he mouthed the words.

 

‘It’s okay if you can’t do it well.’

 

Gru looked around at Grandfather, Hong Sam Uncle, and her older siblings, then focused on the feeling of being wrapped in clouds that she always felt when spending time with Father.

 

‘I want to do well!’

 

Gasp!

 

I am a tree!

 

Just then, the deer friend who came up on stage came hopping toward Gru.

 

‘Here it comes. The enemy of Gru’s sprouts!’

 

Gru, immersed in her role, widened her eyes.

 

The friend playing the deer flinched and shrugged at her fierce glaring expression, as if she was really looking at her enemy.

 

“…?!”

 

The deer approached to eat the sprouts of Gru’s tree, but hesitated at the inexplicably scary acting expression—

 

Scurry!

 

And just ran away.

 

Gru looked contentedly at the back of the fleeing deer.

 

‘Gru protected the sprouts.’

 

Regardless of how the play was progressing, Gru huffed proudly after defeating the deer.

 

‘Soon the time for revenge will come.’

 

The teachers hurriedly sent the hunter onto the stage.

 

When the hunter stood in front of the tree and said ‘Where did the deer go?’, Gru would quickly report that it went that way, and the hunter would chase the deer to end the scene.

 

But….

 

“….”

 

The hunter holding a long bow hesitated and closed his mouth.

 

He seemed to be in complete panic due to the overwhelming crowd and the pressure of having to start the first line of the play.

 

“Uh….”

 

The hunter hung his head low with a face that looked like he was about to cry.

 

The families watching the school festival let out sympathetic sighs, and the teachers watching from the side of the stage were restless, not knowing what to do.

 

“H-Hunter!”

 

Just then, Gru gently waved the tree branches to catch the hunter’s attention.

 

“Are you looking for the deer?”

 

The hunter holding the bow nodded with teary eyes.

 

“Y-yes!”

 

Gru smiled brightly.

 

“The deer is a little over there!”

 

When Gru helped move the play along, the hunter lowered the bow with a relieved expression.

 

“Tree, thank you…”

 

Then the hunter approached Gru and hugged her tightly.

 

“Huuu.”

 

Gru’s nose also tingled as she hugged the hunter back and patted her back with the tree branches.

 

The heartfelt embrace between the tree and hunter that wasn’t in the script drew quiet laughter from here and there.

 

Teacher Jung Yuni waved her hand signaling it was time to exit, and Gru nodded and waddled sideways while still holding the hunter.

 

Eventually the teachers had to rush in and carry each child off the stage.

 

* * *

 

The play proceeded in much the same way as the beginning.

 

The children forgot their lines, got teary-eyed, and the teachers had to help them exit several times.

 

But since most of the audience were family members, the clumsy performance actually drew good reactions.

 

And Gru.

 

‘Sprouts! I protected them!’

 

She remained immersed in her role and was purely delighted until the final bow.

 

When the Chick Class play finally ended and Gru was changing clothes in the waiting room, flower bouquets suddenly thrust forward from all directions.

 

“Gru Gru, why are you so good at acting? I’m impressed.”

 

“Amazing Gru, you were so cute!”

 

As Gidan and Nayeon made a fuss while patting her, Gru grabbed Wuju’s hand and raised it high up.

 

“I practiced lots with Wuju!”

 

Wuju nodded with a proud expression.

 

“You did better than during practice.”

 

“Hehe!”

 

Just then, as family members began flooding into the waiting room one by one, Hyeonhak’s Strategy Team Leader raised his hand.

 

“Alright everyone, let’s take photos first. Before the reporters swarm in.”

 

“How do they even follow us to a kid’s school festival.”

 

While the strategy team grumbled, someone from the back asked cautiously.

 

“Then, shall I take the photo for you?”

 

It was Park Mirim, the mother of Gru’s friend Harry.

 

“I want to take it too!”

 

Harry squeezed between Wuju and Gru and made a cute cheek heart.

 

As expected, our daughter never fails to deliver.

 

Park Mirim smiled bitterly and took several photos until Harry was satisfied.

 

After taking the group photo like that.

 

The guild members were each surrounded by crowds and broke out in cold sweat trying to fulfill requests for photos and autographs.

 

The teachers did their best to block the reporters, but it would have been too much to block even the families…

 

On Jurim also couldn’t be cold to Gru’s friends’ families, so he was taking photos with them too.

 

On Suhyung and Gru watched this with gentle smiles.

 

“Gru, I’ll hold the flowers for you.”

 

“Yes.”

 

As Gru handed the flower bouquet to Grandfather, Harry came running over from the side.

 

“Gru! Tell the Guild Leader and let’s go to the playground for a bit.”

 

Guild Leader?

 

Gru blinked at the word she hadn’t heard in a while.

 

Ah, that’s what I told Harry. That he was the Guild Master, not Dad.

 

‘But not anymore.’

 

Gru clenched her fists and said loudly.

 

“He’s not the Guild Leader, he’s Dad!”

 

Wuju, who was standing nearby, opened her mouth.

 

‘Now he’s become Dad?!’

 

However, Harry nodded as if it was no big deal.

 

“Then let’s tell Dad and go on the swings.”

 

“Yeah yeah. Can Wuju come too?”

 

“Mm, okay!”

 

“Mom! I’m going on the swings with Gru and Wuju!”

 

“Oh, okay! Mom will follow soon. You have to play safely!”

 

“Okay!”

 

Park Mirim waved her hand and then turned her head toward On Jurim.

 

Gru was asking On Jurim if she could go play with Harry.

 

While giving someone an autograph, On Jurim readily nodded with a gentle smile on his lips.

 

Now he’s really become a dad.

 

Park Mirim rubbed her nose tip that had gotten emotional for no reason.

 

‘That’s good.’

 

Chapter Dads

 

Inside the broadcasting station waiting room.

 

On Jurim thought that he seemed to be going to the broadcasting station more often than dungeons these days as he waited for the start of the ‘Three Different Guild Masters Special’ broadcast.

 

It was a decision he made wanting to turn people’s attention away from Jjapso toward himself, but if he had known the dates would overlap like this, he wouldn’t have scheduled today.

 

Jurim anxiously checked his watch.

 

‘It’s about time for the results to come out.’

 

Time had flown by like an arrow, and the entrance interviews for Gru and Sergey, who had passed the written exam, had already taken place two weeks ago.

 

And the results were scheduled to be announced today.

 

Although she was naturally a smart child, Jurim was worried sick that she might have said something strange during the interview.

 

‘She said she didn’t say anything unusual, but…’

 

I wasn’t even this nervous about my own affairs.

 

He recalled how calm he had been on his own college admission announcement day. Rather, his hyung and father had been the ones making a fuss…

 

Before being guild leaders, they’re fathers first, I guess.
