Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 218
“Critato Reactor Potato!”
“Huh?”
“…?”
Gru gaped at On Suhyung’s dazed face.
Bombs were exploding one after another in his head.
‘I stupidly said it honestly~!’
What should I do?
Does Grandfather know too? That Jjapso made the Critato Reactor?
What would happen if Father found out that I accidentally let Grandfather know about Jjapso?
Jurim tended to be very sensitive about Gru’s identity.
They had even fought over whether he could or couldn’t do hunter work. If he found out that I was carelessly blabbing about it like this….
‘This time it might really be a hundred “no’s”!’
While Gru’s mind was getting complicated with his mouth just hanging open, On Suhyung quietly spoke up.
“Cri….”
He was so startled by those words that a hiccup popped out.
“Hic!”
Gru’s face turned pale as he covered his mouth.
“Cri… what did you say after that? Grandfather’s hearing has gotten quite bad lately, so I can’t hear well.”
“…!”
Gru’s eyes began to sparkle.
“Christmas… potato… Hic!”
“Ah, Christmas potato. I see. It’s a toy factory that makes Christmas potatoes.”
“Yes, yes! Hic!”
“Then shall we go inside together and play at drawing factory blueprints?”
“Yes!”
“Let’s go.”
“Yes! Hic!”
“Our Gru must have been quite startled.”
“I wasn’t startled… Hic!”
“I see. You’ll feel better after drinking some delicious juice inside and calming down.”
“Yes. Hic.”
On Suhyung wiped away the tears that had trickled from Gru’s eyes and gently patted his back. The hiccups quickly subsided.
“But Gru, is it okay to leave those behind?”
On Suhyung gestured toward the baby bird and hamster buried up to their necks, and they cried pitifully for rescue.
“Piiiiiii!”
“Myuuuuuu!”
“….”
I think we should close the factory door today, so should I take them out….
Gru grabbed Mephistopheles and Veilak’s heads and pulled them out with a pop.
The two who escaped from the dirt burrowed into the arms of On Suhyung, who was smiling warmly.
“Heh heh heh.”
At that sight, Gru pouted his lips.
“Let’s go in.”
“Yees.”
* * *
Contrary to his nervousness about possibly getting caught by Grandfather.
“What principle do you use to make Christmas potatoes?”
“You put magic stones here…. Like this….”
“These days toys use magic stones. That must be quite interesting.”
“It’s fun!”
Gru showed a beaming smile and thought.
‘Grandfather is really clueless…!’
New knowledge increased by 1.
To think he’s the chairman of such a big company despite being this clueless.
In dramas, clueless chairmen often get betrayed a lot….
Gru gazed at On Suhyung with sad eyes.
‘I should protect Grandfather too.’
While Gru was making this resolution, Grandfather was drawing new blueprints on his laptop.
“Would it be okay to make this part with soft material? Since corners are easy to bump into.”
“Ah! It’s fine. Good.”
“Right, right. And this rotary kiln part should be extended as a long cylindrical shape so potatoes can be made one by one as they come down….”
The blueprint began transforming into a professional form under his rapidly clicking hands.
‘Wooow….’
This wasn’t the crude factory from before.
Considering it was a toy for children to carry around, he added handlebars, and even decorated the overall appearance to look like an amusement park.
It was when Gru was implementing the magically created blueprint in 3D form in his mind and rotating it.
[Knowledge has increased!]
[Clatter Clatter Filial Piety Factory Level Up!]
[You can assign 3 more staff members!]
‘Wooo!’
Now 6 staff members! They’ll work twice as hard, so an S-Rank Reactor is no longer a dream!
“Gru, but can this be made with LEGO? How about if Grandfather does mold work to make it for you? Would you still be able to use it as a toy?”
“Yees.”
As long as he designated it as the Filial Piety Factory, there would be no problem regardless of what it was made from.
“That’s a relief.”
“Hihi.”
The grandfather and grandchild smiled brightly at each other.
“But you know, Gru. I don’t think we can leave the toys here. The emptier a house is, the better it needs to be managed, so the servants come by frequently.”
Thud-!
Then Gru has nowhere to go!
Should I move back to the Guild Leader’s Office?
In my head, I was imagining an angry Papa Wolf monster kicking Gru’s factory with his foot.
“If Gru’s toys need a lot of magical power, it would be fine to put them in the dungeon that Grandfather bought.”
“Dungeon?”
Gru perked up her ears.
“Yes, companies like Grandfather’s sometimes buy dungeons that have become abandoned mines. They’re useful for many things like research and waste disposal.”
If I put the factory in a dungeon, it would be convenient to come and go using the ‘Dungeon is an Open Door’ skill.
“Can Gru have it?”
Gru knew that dungeons were more expensive than most land. Not only that, but they weren’t places just anyone could buy even if they had money.
Then On Suhyung smiled and gently tapped Gru’s nose.
“Of course. If our Gru wants to use it, Grandfather is fine with anything as long as our Gru is happy.”
Zing-
Gru clutched her fluttering heart.
“Gru too! Gru also likes it when Grandfather is happy!”
“Then will you tell me that Grandfather is the best?”
“Yes! Gru is-!”
“Wait a moment.”
On Suhyung quickly started filming Gru with his mobile phone.
“Gru likes Grandfather the most!”
On Suhyung smiled brightly and gave Gru a kiss on the cheek. Gru giggled and kissed On Suhyung’s cheek too.
After filming the video, On Suhyung seemed to be sending it somewhere.
Soon, seeing messages coming in non-stop, he chuckled “puhuhu.”
What’s that about? Gru tilted her head in confusion.
Soon, a name reading ‘Our Son~♡’ appeared on the screen and the mobile phone started vibrating buzz buzz.
“Is it Papa?”
“He’ll be coming this way soon. Would you like to have dinner at our house before going?”
“Yes!”
“Alright, Grandfather will prepare everything. Go play in the meantime.”
On Suhyung patted Gru’s bottom gently.
“Let’s go play!”
As Gru said brightly and bounced out, the hamster, rabbit, and baby bird followed behind.
On Suhyung was smiling happily while watching the child playing in the courtyard.
‘To think even my granddaughter would be so outstanding.’
Even he himself didn’t think he had lived a particularly virtuous life, yet somehow he had come to be with such a lovable and outstanding child.
Life was truly unpredictable.
Though Gru seemed to want to hide it, he had known for some time that Gru was a hunter whose stock was rising tremendously.
Thinking about why his picky and lazy son had brought the child, who had come to Hyeonak right after that, and recalling the interview that was done when there was conflict with Gru, it wasn’t difficult to reach a conclusion.
Additionally, having had such outstanding sons, he was less prejudiced than others, which played a major role.
In fact, the reason he had installed the suspicious figure Jjapso as a figurehead president of a subsidiary company was because he knew Jjapso was Gru.
“….”
On Suhyeong, who had been smiling, sighed as he kept thinking about things that nagged at his heart.
When you operate such a large company, you naturally become quick to pick up on things.
Because you start to see the big picture of what connects to what.
On Suhyeong turned on his mobile phone and sent a text to the Chief Secretary.
Please investigate everything about the state secret ‘Project Wasteland’.
The goal of the classified project was to ‘implement’ On Ijo.
Lee Jo’s alias, who possessed L-Rank Crafting Skills, was none other than ‘Imago Dei’.
Just as God created humans in His own image, Lee Jo was a creator who could perfectly recreate anything in the world.
Whether organic or inorganic, from animals to humans to monsters. Regardless of any realistic conditions or rankings….
Gru’s feeling that he resembled Lee Jo might not have been a mistake.
On Suhyeong gripped his trembling hands.
If his thoughts were correct, he wanted to delete all the data before Jurim noticed.
The more Gru grew, the more certain it was that Jurim would also reach the same conclusion he had arrived at.
