Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 222

The Child looked back at On Jurim, who seemed somewhat dazed, then pointed accusingly at Rage as she spoke.

“Daddy! This man is a bad person! He’s handsome but you shouldn’t be fooled!”

“Did the little one just say I’m handsome?”

On Jurim thought it was quite an extraordinary ability that he only picked up on that part.

Rage tilted his head curiously.

“Does Korea have a culture of putting handcuffs on handsome people?”

Leaving Rage to his nonsense, On Jurim pondered for a moment.

It seemed like Han Gru didn’t know something very important.

“Um, but you know. That bad person.”

“Yes. Han Gru caught him. Don’t worry.”

Now Han Gru’s crimes would be taken into consideration thanks to the achievement of catching a major criminal!

Just as laughter was about to burst out and he was about to break into hearty laughter.

On Jurim spoke.

“That person is Master’s dad.”

“…Hm?”

Master’s dad? Suddenly?

It was the moment when Han Gru’s face began to be covered with confusion at the completely unexpected words.

Rage delivered a combo attack.

“I’m late with introductions. I’m Amakusa Reiji.”

“Amakusa?”

No way…

Amakusa Reiji…

Amakusa Kazuki…

“…!”

Gyaaaaaaah!

Han Gru screamed internally.

‘That’s right, Master said before that his dad was a bad person!’

To think the bad dad was a really bad dad.

There are too many different kinds of dads in the world!

In Han Gru’s dad encyclopedia-

Lazy dad.

Dad who got stabbed by his son.

And now criminal dad was newly added.

No, but if the potato friend is Master’s dad…

Does that mean Han Gru was trying to cover up his crimes by selling out Master’s dad?

‘…!’

It’s not just wicked, it’s the worst.

At that moment, Rage approached Gru, knelt on one knee, and spoke.

“By any chance, does the little one have a red bell?”

Clank-

Gru turned pale and looked back at Jurim and Rage.

Looking for the bell was practically the same as finding out that Gru was Jjapso.

“Bell?”

“Why, why?”

Jurim and Gru spoke at the same time.

While Rage turned his gaze to Jurim, Gru approached Jurim, grabbed his pants tightly, and hid behind him.

“I received a request. I didn’t even know the target was my cute friend. It’s my mistake.”

Rage smiled broadly and extended his hand.

“So, won’t you give me that bell?”

When Gru asked Jurim with his eyes if it was okay to give it, Jurim nodded.

Gru handed over the bell.

Rage, who received the bell, squeezed it tightly and crushed it.

Pop! Gru was startled by the bursting sound and shouted.

“If, if you break that, you’ll be cursed!”

“Hahaha, don’t worry. I already have many on me.”

“Many?!”

So one more wouldn’t matter?!

When he looked at Jurim blankly, he also nodded as if to say not to worry.

Potato Friend is scarier than I thought.

Gru’s shoulders trembled.

“No, but how did you suddenly know to try to arrest me?”

“I saw it at Ser Oppa’s Office…”

“Why did you try to arrest instead of telling Dad?”

“Uh, uh, I’m exercising my right to remain silent…”

“The right to remain silent isn’t something you exercise, it’s something the suspect should exercise.”

“Huh…?”

Looking at that blank expression, he clearly didn’t even know what it was and just picked it up somewhere and blurted it out randomly.

“Where’s the handcuff key?”

“At the Toy Section…”

“Lead the way.”

“Uung…”

Gru grabbed the two long hands attached to his hat and trudged ahead.

Veilak, who had been watching, ran over pattering, put up a barrier, and whispered.

“Are you just going to let him go? He knows your identity. There’s no telling what might happen in the future!”

“Beep-!”

“But he also got rid of the bell… and he’s Master’s dad…”

“It’s better not to have such a dangerous dad.”

“Beep-!”

“…?”

Han Gru stared intently at Veilak.

After Mephistopheles had stabbed Father and the two had fought quite fiercely, now he was saying they should get rid of someone else’s father since he was a bad guy.

“Even if he’s a dangerous father, he’s still a father.”

“Not all parents can be good parents. It’s better to cut off the bad ones.”

At this, Han Gru stopped abruptly and said.

“Then! Is Mepi’s father actually a bad father too?”

Veilak hesitated.

Mephistopheles blinked quietly as if remembering something.

“Perhaps. From a human perspective, he would have been a bad existence.”

When Veilak replied calmly, Han Gru’s shoulders flinched. He was agreeing like this?!

“Do you think all family relationships are affectionate? There are relationships that are better off not existing.”

“Beep-!”

When Mephistopheles chimed in agreement with Veilak’s words, Han Gru frowned as he resumed walking.

Veilak and Mephistopheles, who knew his father, might think that way.

But Han Gru knew neither his mother nor his father.

Relationships that were better off not existing? He’d never had them to experience that in the first place.

‘But.’

Han Gru recalled Kazuki’s expression when he talked about his father.

Within that indecipherable expression that just smiled and laughed, what Han Gru had read was longing. That face he had experienced countless times.

While it might be an unnecessary relationship for some, Han Gru knew well that it wouldn’t be so for Master.

“Shut up, just follow me before I turn you into a hamster.”

“Such a despicable threat…!”

“Chirp chirp chirp!”

As Veilak trembled, Mephistopheles covered his mouth with his wing and sneered.

“Whose side are you on anyway!”

“Chirp chirp chirp!”

While the three bickered like this, On Jurim rubbed his face as if dizzy and followed behind, and Rage examined the handcuffs from various angles before letting out an exclamation.

These weren’t just toy handcuffs.

Though they looked like plastic material at first glance, they had density and strength similar to metal.

This was different from simple enhancement.

Rather than the plastic itself becoming stronger, it was closer to having undergone conversion like metal.

The Child had casually created material conversion of non-dungeon byproducts right there in the toy section.

No wonder Prime Minister Takahashi Norio and foreign competitors had their eyes blazing red searching for The Child.

The Child was a genius who would succeed On Ijo.

“My little friend will become a better hunter than my son.”

At his straightforward praise, Han Gru was startled and pressed the hand on his hat, making his ears pop up with a squeak!

“Really, truly?”

“I can say so with 100% certainty. But that hat is very cute – may I press it too?”

“Yes!”

Han Gru trotted over and offered the hat her paw.

Rage pressed his foot pad with his handcuffed hands.

Squeak squeak!

The hat’s ears flapped up and down, making Han Gru giggle with delight, and Rage smiled warmly too.

Squeak squeak! Squeak squeak squeak!

Meanwhile, an auntie standing at the nearby tasting stand said how cute it was and handed over some grilled dumplings.

“Oh my, how adorable. You must be so full just from how pretty your daughter is that you don’t even need to eat~”

“I express my gratitude for your kindness, madam.”

When Rage bowed elegantly, the auntie smiled warmly and offered another grilled dumpling.

“Your kindness is already more than sufficient.”

Rage politely declined and blew on the hot dumpling before giving it to Han Gru.

Han Gru took a big bite of the grilled dumpling and chewed it while going “hot hot.”

Only On Jurim stared at the two with a dumbfounded expression.

Just moments ago, she had been saying with a determined face that she’d arrested a bad person, not to be fooled by his handsome face, and so on.

He couldn’t understand why they had suddenly become best friends this time.

He was contemplating whether he should separate them so others wouldn’t mistake his daughter for that criminal’s daughter.

On Jurim suddenly turned his head.

The man who had been watching them quickly hid behind a display stand.

On Jurim furrowed his brow.

[“It seems like he followed you?”]

[“To be precise, not me but your daughter.”]

[“….”]

[“Don’t worry about it. I’ll take care of the little friend’s tail.”]

Rage smiled brightly and drew up his magical power.

Instantly, a black figure that seemed to drip with slime appeared before the man hiding behind the display stand.

Something twisted opened its mouth toward him.

Groooooow-

Soon after, the man slumped against the display stand in an empty state, as if his soul had been sucked out.

[“Who’s the client?”]

[“You’ll find out soon enough, so don’t worry.”]

It must have meant he would handle it himself.

On Jurim nodded.

“Someone collapsed here!”

“Over here!”

Han Gru, who had approached the toy section, peeked her head out when commotion arose from behind.

“Hm?”

“It’s nothing. Where’s the key, the key.”

On Jurim blocked her view, grabbed Han Gru’s shoulders, and spun her body around.

“Key…”

Han Gru found the key to the handcuffs at the Display Stand where the ‘Kids Cops’ kit was displayed.

Veilak and Mephistopheles seemed quite displeased, but Han Gru hummed cheerfully as he held out the key.

As Rage reached out to take the key-

Swoosh! Han Gru pulled the key back into his arms.

“…?”

“This. Before I unlock it… I have one favor to ask.”

Rage smiled.

“I was already planning to grant your favor anyway.”

“…?”

When?

Han Gru gaped with his mouth open. Had there been such a time?

But there was no point in pondering over something with no answer.

Han Gru did what he had always done – when faced with words he didn’t understand, he simply answered “yes” as usual.

“I’ll grant any favor you ask. Tell me what it is.”
