Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 240

* * *

At that moment.

Han Gru was lying spread-eagle on a crackling lightning cloud, having taken off his doll clothes.

It felt like lying on a bed that bubbled and gave him a massage.

Near his head, a giant octopus sat demurely, fanning him with its tentacles(?).

It was Demisrin, the AAA-rank boss of the Thunder Domain.

– Are you comfortable?

“Mmm….”

Han Gru said as he rolled over once.

Mepi really is someone important….

It was nice being treated like a Lord after inheriting the title. However….

The hamster clicked its tongue disapprovingly.

“Myu myu myu.” (What an incompetent master, unable to even properly open the Cradle.)

“I think I know what Bay is saying.”

It was probably thanks to the title. Even hamster language could now be automatically translated in his head.

When Han Gru glared sharply, the hamster turned its head away with a huff.

As soon as he arrived at the Boss Room, Han Gru had opened the Cradle.

The white snowy field stretched to the end of the Boss Room, so much so that it didn’t feel like the Thunder Domain at all.

This was the first time he had spread such a large snowy field.

Also, not having to open a new subspace to create the snowy field like last time was a great achievement, but the problem was….

‘I have no strength at all!’

It felt like he had used up all his magical power in an instant.

“Gru can’t move at all….”

The Lord said while squirming as he lay on the cloud.

Mephistopheles told him to rest well while stroking Han Gru’s head with his wing, and Lucifer rubbed his cheek against Han Gru’s face as if worried.

Only Veilak looked at this scene as if it were pathetic.

“Myu myu! Myu myu myu myu myu!” (Your magical power is just leaking out because you’re just lying there! You need to try to control the space!)

“But….”

With magical power leaking out continuously, his head felt dizzy and heavy, and his eyes kept closing, so he couldn’t tell what he should do.

He couldn’t control the output, so he couldn’t even make the snowy field smaller or make it disappear at will.

The snowy field, as if it had a will of its own, freely drew out all of Han Gru’s magical power and used it recklessly.

The uncontrollable power brought exhaustion and even a strange fear.

‘This is hard….’

So Dad feels this state every day.

It was just when Han Gru was thinking of On Jurim.

– I’m gonna~ become ketchup~ I’m gonna~ dance~ Cool tomato~

The phone rang at perfect timing.

“It’s Dad.”

Gru jumped up and checked her watch.

Huh? Why is Dad suddenly calling at this time? He should know I’m filming today, right? Is he calling to check if the filming went well?

When Gru didn’t answer the phone because she was hesitating, a message soon arrived.

[On Jurim: On Gru, where are you?]

For a moment, thump! It felt like her heart dropped.

This tone, this intensity felt from the message.

She could be certain.

He found out she came to the dungeon.

[Gru: Gru is in the bathroom!]

[On Jurim: You didn’t go to a dungeon alone, did you?]

As expected!

While wondering ‘How did he find out?’ and searching through her mind, she soon remembered herself being happy that the Blue Lagoon Guild Master said he would post on an internet community.

‘Gru, you idiot!’

She only thought about the good things and didn’t consider that it would reach Dad’s ears.

[Gru: No! I came to play at Wuju’s filming site!]

[Gru: I’m in the bathroom right now!]

Gru quickly sent the message and moved her body that felt like it weighed a thousand pounds.

“Mepi, Bay, Fer. We need to finish the entire dungeon within 10 minutes.”

Gru held up her watch to show them.

“Dad knows we came to the dungeon.”

At those words, the three’s faces hardened with surprise and panic.

“Peep-!”

“Myu myu myu myu myu!”

“Kyuuuuuk!”

Soon they each began making a fuss. Mephistopheles flew around in circles, Veilak pointed and jumped around, and Lucifer cried in chaos.

Only Demisrin, the dungeon boss, sat quietly with a face that showed he had no idea what was going on.

“It’s okay. We still have about 10 minutes to spare.”

Since she said she went to the bathroom, he’ll wait about 10 minutes.

Time limit: 10 minutes.

She absolutely must not get caught by Dad, who’s scarier than the dungeon boss.

“First, let’s destroy the dungeon and get out of here. We can’t get caught being in the dungeon. Mepi, fly up and break the core.”

“Peep!”

Mephistopheles quickly flew up. If the core is broken, the dungeon won’t be able to maintain its form and will collapse.

Next, Han Gru transformed Veilak into human form.

“Veilak has been with Gru the whole time. Got it?”

“Got it. But even if we destroy the core, Demisrin will remain. We need to deal with Demisrin.”

“Ah….”

If they only destroyed the core, this huge octopus would suddenly appear outside the dungeon.

Imagining a giant octopus (only to Han Gru) appearing at the zombie filming site made her vision blur for a moment.

That absolutely cannot happen.

“In the bag, let’s put it in the bag.”

Han Gru, whose vision was spinning, opened her bag.

The octopus struggled to put its legs in, but the giant octopus couldn’t fit into the small hip bag.

Unable to watch any longer, Veilak shouted.

“It’s the snowy field! Make it smaller!”

“Ah, I know!”

Han Gru grabbed the octopus’s leg and squeezed her eyes shut. Her breathing became labored as if she would collapse from exhaustion.

Let’s try! Just like when I made Veilak!

[Casting skill ‘Knead Knead’.]

I need to make it small. Small….

The urgency of her father’s arrival instilled in Han Gru the will to squeeze out every last ounce of strength she had.

Han Gru poured all her mental power into casting the skill.

Though her mind went blank, she had to clearly visualize the form she wanted to create.

‘Octopus! Small!’

Before Dad comes!

At that moment, Demisrin’s body distorted.

The temple in the Thunder Domain collapsed. Mephistopheles had destroyed the core.

Simultaneously, as if Han Gru’s magical power had run out, the snowy field disappeared with a pop.

Han Gru collapsed to the floor, and what had been Demisrin remained in her grasp.

Demisrin had become a round takoyaki!

“Success-!”

Han Gru couldn’t finish her words and toppled over to the side.

Veilak picked her up and carried her.

Outside the gate was a clearing cordoned off with access control lines.

“Bathroom….”

“Got it.”

Veilak carried Han Gru on his back toward the bathroom, with Mephistopheles and Lucifer following behind.

At that moment, the surroundings became noisy as On Jurim appeared at the filming site.

On Jurim, who was a head taller than the others, was looking around for Han Gru and approaching with long strides.

‘Magical power is, replenishing….’

Due to the effect of the skill ‘Happiness of Being Together’, Han Gru could always maintain optimal condition when with her primary caregiver.

Gru patted Veilak’s shoulder and stepped down to the floor.

Veilak looked surprised seeing Gru suddenly back to normal.

It would be surprising to see a child who had been weak from magical power depletion suddenly become fine.

But Gru went “Shh!” and gave him a look, then grabbed Veilak’s hand and ran to On Jurim.

“Dad!”

* * *

After hearing the situation explained by Gru, On Jurim crossed his arms.

Beside him, Wuju stood with the manager, watching On Jurim’s expression and not knowing what to do.

On the opposite side, Gru, Mephistopheles, Lucifer, and Veilak who had entered the dungeon stood in a row with their heads down as if being punished.

As the celebrities stood in this strange formation, gazes stuck to them from here and there.

The sound of cameras clicking could be heard, but regardless, On Jurim asked.

“You went to the bathroom? With this guy?”

On Jurim nodded toward Veilak.

Then Wuju added support.

“Yes, Gru said he was going to the bathroom.”

Gru also spoke confidently.

“Yeah! Bay said he can’t go to the bathroom without Gru!”

What?! Mephistopheles kicked Veilak who was about to protest, blocking his mouth.

Rolling his tongue inside his mouth at this, On Jurim turned his gaze to Mephistopheles.

The white baby bird sitting on Veilak’s head flinched and trembled.

Mephistopheles had something in his mouth, making his cheeks puffed up.

On Jurim tapped his own cheek.

“What’s that guy holding in here?”

“…Squawk!”

Mephistopheles reflexively opened his beak to answer that it was nothing, then quickly shut his beak tight again.

What Mephistopheles had in his mouth was the Demisrin that Gru had made with takoyaki.

In his urgency to avoid being caught by On Jurim, he couldn’t think of any other method and had put it in his mouth to hide it.

But now he was asking what this was. Had On Jurim noticed something?

If On Jurim found out they had gone to the dungeon by themselves, he would surely ban ‘Zombie Hunter’ again.

The time when they couldn’t watch Zombie Hunter last time was like a terrible nightmare.

Gru and Veilak looked at Mephistopheles with desperate expressions.

“…”

It was time for Mephistopheles to make a great sacrifice.
