Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 260
“Haruna.”
When Genzo reached out his hand toward Haruna, Haruna took a step back.
He looked at his empty hand for a moment, then clasped his hands behind his back and spoke.
“Hyeonak is a better place than I thought. Though the guild master is wearing ridiculous clothes.”
“…!”
Han Gru muttered “But it’s cute…” while On Jurim furrowed his brow.
Meanwhile, seeing that Haruna couldn’t understand, Genzo adjusted the translator in his ear.
Then Genzo’s cold voice that Haruna had heard countless times flowed out.
[“Even if Hyeonak isn’t just some drifters, I can’t let you go. You’re an Inoue.”]
Haruna clasped her hands tightly together. Soon her pale face poured out words in a rush.
[“I was always afraid of being evaluated. But at Inoue, I always have to be like that. I don’t want to anymore.”]
[“How dare you-!”]
Flinch! Haruna shrank her shoulders.
At that moment, Han Gru toddled over to Genzo and stuck a [Noise] sticker on him.
Genzo’s face turned red and blue with three Noise Stickers attached to him.
[“This little brat really…!”]
Before the sparks could fly to Han Gru, On Jurim quickly scooped him up.
Han Gru, snorting through his nose, glared fiercely like a fox acting tough while being held by On Jurim and said.
“Grandfather. Sister is trembling.”
[“What?”]
At that moment, Kazuki wrapped his arm around Haruna’s shoulder comfortingly and shook his head slightly.
[“Teacher. Please let Haruna say what she wants to say.”]
At this, Genzo looked at Haruna who was hunched over with her head down.
It was a familiar sight. Haruna was always withdrawn and pale in front of him.
But when had he started seeing only that kind of expression on his granddaughter’s face?
He sighed and ran his hand over his face.
[“Yes… I was being short-sighted. I’m sorry for getting excited.”]
Seeing his deflated mood, Han Gru smiled brightly at Haruna.
Haruna seemed to gain courage from Han Gru and opened her tightly closed mouth.
[“Grandfather. What I, what I want to make is….”]
Haruna trailed off and hurriedly pulled out a ‘tea bowl’ from her inventory. It was a tea cup with a wide opening like a bowl.
The grade was only F-rank. It had an option that adjusted the temperature of tea.
Genzo took the tea bowl.
“….”
[“Th, this kind of thing. Not swords or anything like that….”]
[“Tea bowls?”]
[“Yes. I haven’t been able to tell you until now, but… making weapons feels like wearing clothes that don’t suit me. I’m sorry….”]
Genzo’s eyes crinkled as if recalling the past while he fidgeted with the tea bowl.
[“…Before the Great Cataclysm, the Inoue were a family of artisans who made pottery very well.”]
[“I know. When I was little, Grandfather made me toy tea sets for playing house.”]
Genzo smiled as he recalled those times.
[“There were such days.”]
But after the Great Cataclysm, weapons were needed to deal with the monsters that poured forth, and the Inoue focused in earnest on forging weapons.
And the swords made by Inoue craftsmen brought greater wealth and honor than when they made pottery.
System grades allowed people to intuitively gauge the quality of tools, but they also made people focus only on the System’s evaluation.
The higher the grade, the more recognition and praise from people followed.
And Inoue Genzo, intoxicated by this, had long been focusing only on such ‘worthy values to be evaluated.’
[“Actually, I never intended to properly act as an S-Rank from the beginning… I’m sorry.”]
[“…What do you have to be sorry for? That was all my greed.”]
Haruna shook her head.
Her acceptance of the proposal to become a fake S-Rank contained her own desire to be recognized by her grandfather.
[“Grandfather. I have no talent. My crafting class grade is only C-Rank… I can’t become the person you want like Amakusa-san.”]
Haruna’s head gradually lowered.
[“Still… even if I have no talent, even if I have no value worthy of evaluation, I hope you’ll just accept me as I am.”]
Just as Haruna loved crafting even without praiseworthy talent.
She hoped her grandfather would accept her as she was.
Genzo’s face contorted as he looked at his granddaughter with her head hung low.
He let out a pained groan and spoke.
[“…Still, I can’t send you to Korea.”]
Haruna looked up with a despairing expression.
Seeing that look, Genzo hastily added.
[“You’re my blood, aren’t you? I’m not disappointed in your lack of talent. I just wanted to share the praise and recognition I receive with you. My actions might have disappointed you instead… What I lack, what you lack. Supporting each other and living together, isn’t that what family is?”]
[“…”]
Haruna blinked her wide eyes.
Genzo adjusted the translation device on his ear again.
“Sorry for making a fuss over family matters. I’ll make a formal apology next time.”
On Jurim nodded.
“And regarding the S-Rank matter, I’ll organize and announce it soon, so please wait a little.”
“Please do so.”
Han Gru looked at Genzo’s face as he expressed his gratitude.
“Thanks to you, things have calmed down a bit. You cheeky little brat.”
Han Gru pouted.
He flicked Han Gru’s cheek affectionately, then gestured to Haruna.
“Let’s go to the hotel, Haruna. We seem to have a lot to talk about.”
Haruna understood his meaning and bowed deeply to Han Gru’s group.
Kazuki watched the departing Haruna and Genzo with worry and muttered.
“I wonder if they’ll be okay.”
“It’ll work out. Because we’re family.”
Because we’re family… Han Gru listened to On Jurim’s words and rested her chin on his shoulder.
Grandfather Genzo would flare up in anger, but at the sight of his granddaughter shrinking back, he clearly showed signs of not knowing what to do for a moment.
Was that the magic of family?
How much and in what ways was blood-related family different from Han Gru’s special family?
When would she be able to understand?
When Han Gru wrapped her arms around On Jurim’s neck, On Jurim patted the child’s back.
“Did you finish playing for today?”
Han Gru sadly shook her head. Then she whispered in On Jurim’s ear.
“Daddy, I have 5 PPLs left.”
“…Still?”
“Yeah.”
Han Gru hugged On Jurim’s neck even tighter so he couldn’t escape.
