Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 231
[Cumulative sales amount is being updated.]
[Achievement: 【Child Tycoon Who Saved 10 Billion at Age 5】 Achieved!]
[Due to the influence of (Unknown Title), 1% of the sales amount is accumulated as Filial Piety Points in the piggy bank every time you sell items.]
Gru’s mouth fell wide open.
Unable to understand it all at once, he carefully read through the status window again.
‘Is this an achievement that came from making a lot of money with drones this time?’
Gru narrowed his eyes and stroked his chin.
Part of the sales amount comes back as Filial Piety Points?
Then?
Sales↑=Filial Piety Points↑
Level ups are possible with Filial Piety Points!
Big sales=Large amount of Filial Piety Points=Consecutive level ups!
If things proceed according to this plan…
‘Gru, supreme!’
As soon as he reached this conclusion, sparkling stars appeared in his big eyes.
Become the supreme seller and level up with Filial Piety Points!
It was a much better direction than being stuck going around dungeons.
The adults were reluctant to take Gru to dungeons, and if he swept through dungeons alone like last time, he might become a criminal and get wanted.
“Bay, if Gru levels up lots and becomes supreme, can he take the 99th Floor from Dad?”
“Theoretically, yes.”
Veilak spoke dismissively with a face that said ‘As if you could do it.’
Then Mephistopheles immediately launched a Sycophant Kick at Veilak.
Watching the two bicker, Gru snorted.
“Gru can do it too.”
If he just levels up…
Wait a minute.
Gru asked Veilak, who was running away from Mephistopheles’ relentless kicks.
“How much do I need to level up?”
It was very important to Gru.
“Ugh! At least enough to open the Cradle. Becoming the ruler of the snowy field is the first step.”
“Piiit-!”
“You unfilial bastard!”
Papapat-
‘Mepi kicks well…’
Gru was momentarily distracted by Mephistopheles’ dazzling hit-and-run kicks before asking.
“But what’s Yolaeng?”
“It’s a cradle. The primordial space. The space where Sheyer creates blood kin and familiars. You little rascal! Can you dodge this too?”
“Pipi!”
Swoosh- Swish-
‘They’re having fun playing….’
Han Gru, who had been watching the two with hazy eyes, nodded his head and took out Snow Rabbit.
‘Snow Rabbit opened the Yolaeng for me on Jeju Island.’
The small Snow Rabbit that had been sleeping in the bag the whole time yawned.
Snow Rabbit with sprouts on its head groomed itself like a cat, then hopped over to Han Gru and rubbed against his cheek.
“Snow Rabbit… Ah!”
Han Gru, who had been calling Snow Rabbit, gasped and covered his mouth.
This was his first blood kin and he still hadn’t given it a name!
“Snow Rabbit, Han Gru will give you a name.”
Then Snow Rabbit’s eyes, which had been rubbing against his cheek, became teary with emotion.
“Kyu kyu! Kyuu!”
Snow Rabbit bounced up and down, then wagged its tiny thumb-sized tail from side to side like a puppy.
If he had known it would be this happy, he should have given it a name sooner…!
“Sorry, sorry.”
Han Gru petted Snow Rabbit while racking his brain.
“What kind of name would be good?”
Snow Rabbit’s eyes sparkled as it looked at Mephistopheles and Veilak and cried shyly.
“Kyuu….”
It seemed to want a name like its big brothers.
Mephistopheles and Veilak…. They’re all names that sound strong.
As expected, was Snow Rabbit also Han Gru’s baby? Their tastes were similar.
Good. Let’s give Snow Rabbit an incredibly strong-sounding supreme name too.
Han Gru brought up the name of the final boss from Miracle Magic Girl.
“Lucifer! How about that?”
In an instant, Snow Rabbit trembled as if struck by lightning.
“Don’t like it?”
Tears welled up in Snow Rabbit’s eyes as it shook its head frantically.
“Crying?!”
Tears and snot dropped from Snow Rabbit’s eyes and nose with a plop.
It was at that same moment.
Suddenly cold air rushed in and a pure white snowy field spread beneath their feet.
[You have entered the ‘Cradle of Blood Kin’.]
Veilak and Mephistopheles, who had been fighting earnestly, stopped moving.
A snowy field had appeared inside the dungeon.
“Cradle Formation?”
“Peep?”
“Amazing…!”
Gru’s eyes widened in surprise.
He had failed on Jeju Island, but this time he succeeded!
“You did it, Fer!”
As Gru rejoiced, Lucifer also began jumping up and down excitedly.
“Can Fer open Yolaeng in Gru’s place? Because you’re a blood relative Gru created?”
“Kyu kyu.”
Lucifer nodded his head as if that was the correct answer.
“Ah-ha!”
Gru clapped his hands together, then suddenly asked.
“By any chance, is Fer helping because Gru can’t open it?”
“Kyu-u.”
Lucifer shook his face up and down again with innocent eyes.
Ah! So that’s how it was. Gru’s expression became dejected for a moment.
But as Gru had absolutely no understanding of the Cradle, he had no idea what or how to do anything!
Sniff, Gru swallowed his nose and soon wore a silly grin.
So what! As long as someone can do it, that’s all that matters!
It seemed that Gru’s significant level ups during this time had also influenced Lucifer, who was his blood relative.
Mephistopheles’ eyes sharpened as he watched Gru hug Lucifer and give him a kiss on the cheek.
Meanwhile, Veilak gaped in surprise.
“This…”
The Snowy Field that Lucifer had opened was only about 10cm in radius centered around where Gru was standing.
“How can it be so small and pathetic…”
“…!”
Gru’s shoulders flinched.
For a moment, embarrassment rushed over him and Gru’s face turned bright red.
“If, if I make a bigger Cradle, it’ll be bigger.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. How much bigger could it get from this tiny size?”
“If I level up…”
“What’s your current level? 600?”
“4-”
“Don’t tell me 400?”
“40…”
A moment of silence fell.
Only the sound of the Clatter Clatter Filial Piety Factory could be heard, then with a pop! – a pathetic sound like air escaping – the Snowy Field disappeared.
As if even that much had been quite a strain, Lucifer collapsed showing his belly.
“Fer!”
Gru scooped Lucifer up in his arms, and Veilak watched this with mixed feelings.
“…”
Han Gru rolled his eyes nervously under that gaze.
“…Now I can level up a lot…”
Veilak caught Mephisto, who was kicking at me again, with one hand and placed him on top of Han Gru’s head.
“Chirp!”
“It would be better to use this.”
“Mepi?”
“You can transfer the title of ‘Lord’ to Mephisto and use the skill. This guy says he’s done it before?”
“Ah, yeah…”
Come to think of it, there was a time in the RP Dungeon when he became a lord and made Ham Honggi his familiar.
At that time, he definitely said he had transferred Mephisto’s title.
“But you’ll need to have enough magical power to maintain it.”
“H-how much?”
“Until On Jurim is completely consumed, as much as you can possibly manage.”
“Yeah…!”
Han Gru nodded his head.
Now it was time to move for leveling up.
To save Dad, he would become the sales master Han Gru!
Han Gru clenched his fist and looked around at the factories.
Han Gru had two types of items that could make big money.
Rail Gun Drones and Critato Reactors.
Both were items that had made Han Gru wealthy, but…
‘They require too many Filial Piety Points…’
Especially for higher-grade items, the Filial Piety Points needed to make them increased exponentially.
They were effective for making money, but were far from earning many Filial Piety Points.
Moreover, when creating the Filial Piety Factory, Grandfather had hinted that for non-consumable items, maintaining scarcity was the point, not selling many.
“You need to maintain the image of items that can’t be easily obtained even with money, so you can profit greatly even by selling few. That’s what luxury goods are.”
Han Gru stroked his chin while recalling Grandfather’s words.
Items that required many Filial Piety Points needed to be turned into luxury goods. That way he could make few and profit much.
For that reason, Han Gru was developing a new product that used few Filial Piety Points while having high consumption by people-
It was none other than syrup.
Easy to make, and didn’t require many Filial Piety Points.
‘Most importantly, adults can easily use it too.’
When checking reviews of past items, adults found it uncomfortable to use children’s toys.
So for various reasons, selling syrup was much more efficient.
‘Plus, if I improve the syrup, the options get even better!’
Making cotton candy at home wasn’t just for play.
He had been trying to make syrup, which he had only synthesized with water until now, in different forms.
The result was a success!
But there was a separate problem. The sales route.
To become a sales master, sending just a trickle to the Agency wouldn’t be enough.
A route for mass supply was needed.
* * *
An old tricycle moved toward the Hyunak Guild Leader’s Office.
Creak creak creak creak creak-
On Jurim, who had been checking comments on the Mom Cafe for a while, turned his head at the sound of the bicycle.
“…?”
As soon as the thought ‘Han Gru has been sulking and not riding his bicycle since getting caught before?’ crossed his mind, a stupid-looking bear face came into view.
From the bear mask with droopy eyebrows, a mechanical voice that was no longer unfamiliar flowed out.
– String Guild Leader.
On Jurim dry-washed his face.
“….”
Was this a dream?
But no matter how much he rubbed his eyes, My Daughter appearing in the Guild Leader’s Office wearing a bear costume and riding a tricycle wasn’t a dream.
– String Guild Leader. Are you sleeping again?
“No. What, what’s going on. Ahem!”
The situation was so absurd that he even stammered his words.
– Guild Leader, I, Jjapso, have come to sell cotton candy to Hyeonag!
Creak creak- creak- creak-
The bicycle stealthily approached On Jurim.
The bear stopped the bicycle at an appropriate distance and pulled out a pouch from the sling bag worn in front.
It was an Incomplete Bear Face Pouch with a zipper for a mouth.
– If you open this, cotton candy comes out.
When the zipper was pulled open, bright red cotton candy popped out like organs from a belly.
