Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 181

* * *

That evening, Han Gru heard from On Jurim that Lee Taemin’s magical power had stabilized significantly after being hospitalized right away.

He also heard that the person who came along was crying and sniffling…

That was probably referring to Guild Leader Choi Hyunwoo. He had tried to approach Lee Taemin without caring about his own body.

Han Gru suddenly recalled Guild Leader Choi Hyunwoo who had tried to slap Lee Taemin’s cheek.

It seems there are various forms of emotions within people.

Sometimes hurting others, yet still trying to approach and embrace them…

Though it was still difficult for Han Gru to understand, calling On Jurim at that time had been a very appropriate decision.

If he had been a little later, Lee Taemin would have been in real danger.

Saving Lee Taemin, removing Sergey’s worries, and even finishing the Guardian Quest – everything ended very well, but…

In the living room, Yeongran, the housekeeper, put on her apron and said,

“I heard everything from the Store Owner, Han Gru. No TV, right? Aunt told me to keep a good watch on you.”

“Huung…”

Personally, Han Gru had a big problem remaining.

Han Gru whined like a puppy and paced back and forth in front of the TV.

Next to him, Mephisto and Veilak, who were similarly addicted to TV, were also hesitating together.

Right now was the time for their favorite animation ‘Zombie Hunter’ to air.

The last episode had ended with a hunter who became a zombie almost having his identity revealed to his companions, so the three had been eagerly waiting for today to come…

“Myuuu…!”

Veilak bared his teeth defiantly and looked at Han Gru.

It was a protest asking why he had unnecessarily called On Jurim and made things turn out this way.

“Peep!”

Then Mephisto kicked that rude face.

Veilak rebelled and responded by hitting Mephisto with his tiny hands, and when Mephisto flew up again to attack once more, Han Gru caught the baby bird with both hands.

“Stop it! Adults should know how to endure!”

Han Gru snorted through his nose.

“Han Gru, I have a lot of work to do so I have to go. I’m too busy to watch TV…”

Han Gru, who had been hesitating, returned to his room with tears in his eyes, and Yeongran, who was watching, let out a small laugh.

* * *

It was true that he had things to do.

[Guardian ‘Sergey’s’ Affection Quest Complete!]

[Guardian ‘Sergey’s’ Worry Quest Complete!]

Since he had completed quests consecutively, his Filial Piety Points had accumulated substantially!

[Filial Piety Points: 75,000]

‘So much!’

All these points were thanks to Sergey and Subordinate 2 (not really).

Gru immediately activated the Filial Piety Factory and started making several more drones.

Whirr whirr, clank clank.

While watching the factory work busily, Gru checked the empty chest of a chick drone.

Could he sell it for more if he put Veilak’s magic stone in it?

Gru took out an earring that looked like a piece of night sky had been cut out.

[Star of Veilark Shados (SSS)]

It was something On Jurim had given him after taking Lee Taemin to the hospital.

Taemin had handed it over with a message to give it to the Children’s Bandit Gang…

Gru was able to receive it only after hearing earnest pleas ten times not to use the magic stone dangerously.

Come to think of it.

‘How did he know it was Gru just from hearing about the Children’s Bandit Gang?’

Gru stroked his chin.

‘As expected of rank 1?’

Gru’s dad knew quite a lot for someone who didn’t attend kindergarten.

Gru, resting his chin on his hand, fiddled with the earring.

Veilak had said he couldn’t absorb or create new magic stones right now either.

‘Because he can’t return to his original body.’

According to Veilak, magic stones were like kidney stones from his original body. But since he couldn’t return to his original body now, he couldn’t make them.

‘What are kidney stones…’

He didn’t really understand, but anyway, he could tell this was the only one for now.

‘It would be a waste to use something like that just anywhere…’

It would be nice if magic stones grew in clusters like potatoes.

‘Potatoes.’

Fluffy clouds formed in his head, and soon potatoes with arms and legs grew out.

They were magic stone potatoes that sparkled like the night sky.

The potatoes sang “I’m a strong magic stone potato! Supreme potato!” while cheering for Baby Sheep.

‘Potato potato potato potato.’

His head was soon filled with nothing but potatoes and magic stones.

‘Let’s make them!’

I need to find a good way to grow potatoes.

Gru picked up his mobile phone to search and tilted his head at the notification indicator.

There was a notification from kindergarten on the Kids Note App.

It was a notice saying that a school sports festival would be held soon and asking for lots of participation.

Seeing this, Gru’s face lit up with joy.

‘A sports festival is being held!’

Chapter Wuju’s Awakening

Knock knock.

Kim Hyukjung, the principal of Justitia, knocked on the Chairman’s Office door.

“Please come in.”

As he opened the door and entered, the backlighting made him instinctively squint.

“Perfect timing, Principal. I was just reviewing the sports festival proposal you sent.”

When the chairman smiled brightly, pretty dimples appeared on both cheeks.

Rowoon Han.

He was a chairman who had transferred from the UK Branch.

Han Rowoon, with his shirt sleeves rolled up, looked very approachable, and his body visible through the shirt was surprisingly sturdy for someone you wouldn’t believe worked a desk job.

His light almond-colored hair and eyes appeared golden when the sunlight hit them, and his appearance had a mysterious quality that made him seem both Asian and Western at the same time, matching those mystical colors.

Everything about him – his nationality, age, and physical appearance – seemed ambiguous.

“Nothing’s better than sports for bringing the children together. Feel free to spend the budget generously.”

Though he spoke as if being generous, the budget for this sports festival wasn’t from the Foundation’s funds but money extracted from the Asian Olympic Council.

After figuring out the movement to deploy Awakened individuals in the upcoming Asian Games, he had struck a deal.

He didn’t look like he’d be over thirty even if you were being generous, but he was a person with remarkable skills.

Then, suddenly feeling an eerie sensation, the principal turned his gaze to the side.

There was another person sitting in the Chairman’s Office.

A man? How long had he been here?

“Um… Chairman, excuse me, but is this gentleman a guest? Since this is confidential school information… these things have been causing a stir lately, so…”

The man who had put down his teacup straightened his back. Then he spoke playfully to Han Rowoon in Japanese.

[“Oh, should I introduce myself?”]

[“Please don’t tease.”]

Han Rowoon, who replied in equally fluent Japanese, turned his attention to the principal.

“You don’t need to worry about it. This person isn’t good with Korean.”

“Annyeonghaseyo.”

The middle-aged man who greeted him with a foreign pronunciation widened his eyes.

He was so large that it was puzzling why he hadn’t sensed his presence. Moreover, there was even a familiar feeling as if he’d seen him somewhere before.

Why?

As he momentarily forgot his manners and stared intently at the man’s face-

“Principal, may I ask what brings you here?”

“Ah.”

“Since you have a guest, if it’s not urgent, I could come back another time.”

“No, it’s not. I came to ask if you received the report about the sports festival. If anything else comes up, I’ll visit you again next time.”

“Yes, then please get back safely.”

“Yes, yes.”

The principal bowed and left through the door.

Han Rowoon’s voice could be heard faintly from beyond the closing door.

[“Don’t be too harsh, Amakusa-san.”]

Click-

The principal, who had turned around and was heading to the principal’s office, tilted his head curiously.

“Amakusa….”

Amakusa? That’s a familiar name.

He tried to recall the man’s face again, but his mind had already gone blank.

‘But if it’s Amakusa, isn’t that the craftsman from Japan…?’

No way.

There must be more than just one or two people with the surname Amakusa.

He shook his head from side to side and went outside.
