Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 261
Chapter Snow White Gru
【HEADLINE NEWS】
[Breaking] Japan’s Inoue Genzo reveals his granddaughter is not S-Rank….
[Breaking] Inoue Genzo: “Haruna was merely being used by me.”
The major announcement that Inoue Haruna was not S-Rank became the center of attention for several days.
As a result, Team Leader Hwang from the PR Team was quite disappointed that ‘Today’s Gru’ got buried faster than expected.
Unconcerned with that, Gru sat in the living room and opened a package from Japan.
[Inoue Genzo]
‘Tea ceremony play set!’
While Gru was taking out the tea bowl and teapot engraved with Inoue’s signature, the doorbell at the entrance rang.
“Oh? Gru, Wuju is here.”
“Wuju?”
When housekeeper Yeongran opened the door, Wuju entered the house and bowed in greeting.
“Hello, Aunt.”
“Yes, Wuju. It’s been a while. Did you dye your hair again? Did you grow a little taller too?”
“A little. About 2cm.”
When Wuju smiled proudly, Yeongran patted Wuju’s head affectionately as if finding it cute.
Then Gru peeked out and welcomed Wuju.
“Wuju! What’s up? Did you come to play with Gru?”
“Hi. I came today because I have an appointment.”
“Appointment?”
Hm? Gru, you never made any separate appointment with Wuju?
Was it something said in passing? Gru was recalling recent conversations in her head.
Wuju pointed behind with an index finger.
“Yeah, I have an appointment. With that guy.”
“…That guy?”
Gru turned around to look.
There stood Veilak (in human form) with his arms crossed, Mephistopheles perched on his head.
Lately, the two seemed to get along a bit better, often sticking close together like that.
“There’s only Bay and Mepi there?”
“Yeah.”
“…?”
Veilak glanced at both of them with half-opened eyes, then said to Wuju.
“Follow me.”
“What?!”
Gru was startled, but Wuju naturally followed behind Veilak.
Soon they disappeared into the bathroom.
Gru, who had been following them with his eyes, covered his wide-open mouth with both hands.
‘Wuju and Bay are making plans together?!’
* * *
Inside the quiet bathroom.
Silence hung between Wuju, Veilak, and Mephistopheles as they sat around on children’s stools they had brought.
When Wuju hesitated for a long time, Veilak, who had been fidgeting with his fingers on his knees, made a threat.
“If you don’t tell me what this is about quickly, I’m going to leave.”
“Peep peep.”
Seeing even Mephistopheles backing him up, Wuju quickly spoke.
“I need your help.”
“For what?”
Wuju clenched his two fists placed on his knees.
“Well… so Gru is… uh, with another boy…”
Wuju, who had been stammering through his story, lowered his voice as if embarrassed to say it.
“Ki…”
“Ki what.”
“Ki, kiss… I think they’re going to kiss.”
“Peep-?”
“…?”
When Wuju’s bombshell statement dropped, Mephistopheles froze with his mouth agape in surprise, while Veilak frowned and asked back.
“You’re saying Master is going to start dating a boy?”
There hadn’t been any signs of that?
While Veilak just looked surprised, Mephistopheles put a wing feather to his forehead and swayed.
At that, Wuju shook his head.
“No, that’s not what I mean.”
“Peep?”
Mephistopheles, who had seemed about to faint, came back to his senses and opened his ears solemnly.
“The kindergarten decided to do a joint Snow White play. But…”
Wuju squeezed his eyes shut and shook his adorably clenched fists in frustration.
“They picked the roles with a spinning wheel…!”
“Ah…”
“Peep…”
Veilak and Mephistopheles sighed.
“So Gru got picked as the princess, and the prince is… a boy from another class.”
“So?”
“Peep?”
The two, who were well-versed in zombies and TV animation but knew nothing about the Snow White story, tilted their heads in confusion.
“‘Snow White’ is a story where a princess who collapsed after eating a poisoned apple… wakes up from a prince’s kiss! So that means Gru will have to k-kiss the prince…!”
Wuju said as if spitting out the words, her face turning red.
“Peep…!”
Mephistopheles froze stiff with his mouth agape in a diamond shape.
Wuju covered her face with both hands, looking frustrated.
Among the bathroom conference participants, only Veilak wasn’t taking this seriously.
He seemed genuinely puzzled and asked after thinking for a moment.
“But about that kissing thing. Don’t humans do it easily? On TV, men and women do it whenever they make eye contact.”
“Wh-wh-what are you talking about! That can’t be true!”
“It’s not a lie. They really do it like this…”
When Veilak wrapped his arms around himself and tried to demonstrate kissing, Wuju frantically waved her hands left and right.
“That’s what adults watch…! Kids like us shouldn’t watch that!”
“Is that so?”
Hmm. Veilak stopped his demonstration and stroked his chin.
“Ah, so that’s why you called us today to eat the kindergarten teacher who assigned roles with the spinning wheel?”
“Not at all!”
Wuju raised her voice in protest and continued.
“J-just… you guys distract Gru’s attention elsewhere. The main character has a lot of lines, so she needs to practice a lot. But if she becomes too busy to practice, she’ll have no choice but to ask to change roles.”
“Peep-”
Mephistopheles nodded as if understanding.
But Veilak seemed to think that wouldn’t be enough to stop Gru.
“But what if she still insists? The master will want to become the princess no matter what, right?”
Wuju was well aware of the terrifying princess obsession of 5-year-old girls. The child readily nodded.
“Yeah, so I’ve prepared another plan too.”
“What would that be?”
“Peep?”
“I-it’s a plan that doesn’t concern you guys.”
“We could help if you tell us.”
“Peep peep-”
“Well…”
Wuju hesitated a bit, fidgeting with both hands while looking down.
When they waited patiently, a shy voice soon flowed out.
“I’m going to switch roles with that boy…”
Hmm, Veilak made a nasal sound and crossed his arms.
“Aha, so you’re going to ‘kiss’ the master instead of that boy?”
“Peep?!”
Mephistopheles, whose eyes flashed wickedly for a moment, shot up with a whoosh.
Mephistopheles’ kick flew toward the flustered Wuju’s face.
A groan burst from Wuju.
“Ugh!”
Mephisto climbed onto the head of Wuju, who was dazed from getting hit in the face, and delivered swift kicks with his short legs.
It was Veilak who stopped the furious Mephisto.
Veilak grabbed the back of Mephisto’s neck as he kicked with fierce eyes.
“I don’t care who becomes the prince.”
“What?!”
“Peep?!”
When Wuju and Mephisto looked at him with faces overflowing with betrayal, Veilak yawned as if annoyed.
What did it matter to him if his master kissed some amateur? To Veilak, who had learned about the world through adult content, it was just children playing house.
“So if you want to ask me for a favor, you’ll have to give me a different reward.”
“What kind…?”
At Wuju’s cautious question, stars appeared in Veilak’s eyes.
The child showed his shark teeth and grinned as he spoke.
“Your blood.”
“…?!”
Wuju’s face turned pale as he recoiled.
“If you provide me with one drop of your blood, I’ll cooperate. How about it?”
Wuju, who had been lost in thought with his head down, licked his lips and looked up.
“…Just one drop?”
“Yes. That’s enough compensation for such trivial work. If you want, I’ll even help you become the prince.”
“Peep-peep-peep!”
Mephisto cried out as if coughing up blood from his throat, but Wuju accepted with delight.
“Then great! I’ll give it!”
Veilak extended his hand and Wuju grabbed it, shaking it up and down.
It was the dramatic conclusion of the bathroom summit.
Though negotiations with Mephisto had broken down, the alliance between Veilak and Wuju was sealed with just one drop of blood.
Watching the two shake hands, Mephisto trembled and clenched his wings.
‘Veilak, that traitor!’
If only he weren’t just a small bird, he could have caused a ruckus to prevent this bathroom summit from happening.
He had transformed back from human form to bird due to lack of power, but now he knew how it felt.
He just needed power.
Yes, he would gather his strength and become human again.
He had to become that prince himself and stop the kiss between Wuju and Gru.
