Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 264

‘I must show Father the magical power-rich, muscle-packed Han Gru…!’

Just then, the red aura flowing from the Filial Piety Snacks caught his eye.

Ripple ripple~

‘Filial Piety Snacks look dangerous.’

Hmm.

Han Gru opened the information window for the Filial Piety Snacks and reread the phrase warning children to be careful with consumption.

Suddenly, he remembered when Han Gru had introduced the ‘Fluffy Cotton Candy’ item he had invented before.

‘Back then, Father definitely said…’

Han Gru put on the oven glove he had taken off onto his left hand. Then, with his arms crossed and a stern expression, he spoke like an old-fashioned person, imitating On Jurim.

“At the desk… huh? Even if you do simulation and think it’s a good item, huh? When you actually use it, it might be different, you know.”

Lucifer opened his mouth wide, stared at Han Gru, then nodded his head repeatedly.

Proud.

Han Gru felt even better, as if he had said something very difficult.

“So let’s test it just a little bit before going to show off, okay?”

“Kyuhm!”

Lucifer chattered again.

“Good! Let’s go to Gru’s Dungeon first.”

[Activating skill ‘Dungeon is an Open Door’.]

After entering the private dungeon that Grandfather had sponsored, the first thing Han Gru did was check if the Filial Piety Factory was running well.

After taking a look around the factory where the dolls were working hard, Han Gru stood side by side with Lucifer and put his hands on his waist.

There were two things to check.

The effect of the status ailment ‘Loner’s Rage’ that Han Gru had unintentionally created.

And whether Lucifer had become strong enough not to get dizzy even when opening the cradle.

“Will Filial Piety Snacks work on dolls too?”

He needed to check the status ailment, but he couldn’t test it on people…

Han Gru was pondering in front of Doll No. 1 while holding the Filial Piety Snacks.

Swoosh-

The ground sank down a handful, and just then, a mole poked its head out.

“Squeak!”

[Tunnel Mole (F)]

S-rank limited to crops. Not threatening to humans at all.

“Ooh…”

Found it. A test subject.

Han Gru carefully approached and offered one snack to the mole that had peeked out.

“Sniff sniff…”

The black bean-like nose at the tip of its elongated snout twitched and moved.

Its millet-sized eyes seemed unable to function properly as it kept moving only its nose to examine the snacks Han Gru had given it.

Crunch!

Soon the mole realized that what was in front of it was food and grabbed the snacks with its wide front paws and began eating.

Thump thump!

Han Gru and Lucifer quietly watched this scene.

Whiiiiiiing~

Suddenly, streams of light began gathering around the mole that was nibbling away at the snacks.

“…!”

The intense light made it hard to even keep their eyes open.

After a moment, the massive light gradually faded and revealed the mole’s form.

“It got bigger!”

The mole that had been the size of Han Gru’s sneakers had grown to reach up to his ankles.

That wasn’t the only thing that had changed from before.

Bulging with muscles. The mole that had gained size and muscle showed its claws to Han Gru and Lucifer and growled threateningly.

“Grrrrowl…!”

“Eek!”

“Kyuhit!”

The two jumped up and quickly backed away.

When they checked the Information Window, they saw that ‘Tunnel Mole (F)’ had somehow changed to ‘Rage-Consumed Mole (S, Berserk)’.

‘I turned the mole into S-Rank?!’

When the mole glared at Han Gru and Fer with its millet-sized eyes wide open, Han Gru sensed danger and pulled out his fork.

“Grrrrowl!”

Soon the monster began approaching threateningly while licking its sharp front claws.

Cling!

Lucifer clung to Han Gru’s leg trembling, while Han Gru gripped his fork tightly with both hands.

If necessary, he was thinking of hitting a mole home run with his fork.

But then it happened.

Pshhhhhhhh-

Thud.

White steam burst out from the body of the mole that had been approaching so threateningly, and its bulging, taut muscles deflated as it collapsed on the spot.

“Huh?”

It collapsed by itself?!

Han Gru approached stealthily with Lucifer still clinging to his leg.

He poked the limply collapsed mole with his fork, but there was no reaction.

“Is, is it dead?!”

“Kyuuuut?!”

As Han Gru and Lucifer made a fuss and got noisy-

Twitch twitch.

The mole convulsed.

“Phew~ Thank goodness. It’s not dead.”

“Kyuu~”

Did it collapse because the effect wore off?

Just then, Lucifer’s effect seemed to end as well, making a puffing sound as it returned to being a cute Baby Rabbit.

“Kyuuung….”

Lucifer also seemed to feel sudden fatigue, swaying as if about to collapse, so Han Gru quickly caught it and held it in his arms.

The mole’s swaying came faster, perhaps because its body couldn’t handle the increased power.

Setting that aside.

Han Gru shrank his shoulders as he recalled the mole roaring with blazing eyes.

That was terrifying.

An item that causes berserk instead of just giving power.

‘It’s like an item villains would use!’

Super dangerous! Han Gru quickly stuffed the remaining Filial Piety Snack deep into his bag.

‘Let’s seal it away….’

Though the desire to show off made his chest tingle—

‘I might get scolded….’

The fear of getting scolded was greater.

Han Gru looked around, then hid the exhausted collapsed mole among the leaves so it could rest comfortably before leaving the Dungeon.

Whoooosh—

Without noticing the mole’s shadow rippling and moving.

After Han Gru left the Dungeon with Lucifer.

Black stems and leaves moved eerily from the shadow.

[Penbraum (S)]

A plant-type monster that grows by parasitizing the shadows of animals and plants. It has a very docile nature and rarely attacks first.

The roots of the Penbraum that emerged from the shadow began wrapping around the mole.

The roots quickly entered the mole’s body, and the Penbraum’s leaves glowed vibrantly as a red aura settled upon them.

At the same time, it was being eroded by the status ailment ‘Loner’s Rage’.

Clench.

Unknown rage and power enveloped the Penbraum.

It wanted to eat more items that gave this kind of power.

It wanted to unleash its rage.

Dominated by desires that filled it to the tips of its roots, the Penbraum began moving through shadows, following the scent of items.

The next day at lunchtime.

Today was finally the momentous day when the prince battle would end.

While the chattering Chick Class children gathered in groups of three and five to eat their lunch boxes.

Mephistopheles sat perched on Wuju’s shoulder with piercing eyes.

He had to wait for the moment when Wuju would hand over the blood to Veilak.

Just then, one friend who was eating lunch together asked a question.

“Why is Han Gru’s bird with Wuju?”

The bird that was always sitting on Han Gru’s head was now attached to Wuju, so it seemed unusual.

At that question, Wuju was startled and rolled his eyes, while Han Gru pouted his lips.

“Mepi says he doesn’t want to be Han Gru’s bird anymore.”

“Peep!”

Shocked Mephistopheles protested, but Han Gru turned his head away sharply.

He needed to clear up this misunderstanding!

Just as Mephistopheles was about to fly to Han Gru, Park Gunwoo, who had been led by Veilak’s hand, gestured from outside the classroom.

Wuju’s eyes widened as he picked up his bag and stood up.

“I’m done eating, so I’ll be right back.”

Mephistopheles stopped trying to go to Han Gru and sat back on Wuju’s shoulder.

Han Gru watched with a shocked expression as Wuju and Mephistopheles left together.

Mephistopheles kicked at Wuju with his tiny feet while holding back tears.

Regardless, Wuju led the children to the end of a quiet corridor without a care.

Then he took out a small bottle containing a drop of blood, along with photo cards and goods from his bag.

‘Blood…!’

Mephistopheles’ eyes lit up.

The moment Wuju handed the bottle to Veilak. He planned to snatch it at that exact instant and immediately fly away.

His claws twitched.

Park Gunwoo nodded with a satisfied expression after receiving the photo cards and goods, and next Veilak extended his hand.

Now was the time. Mephistopheles flew up with a whoosh.

“I knew you were targeting it.”

Veilak crushed the bottle at lightning speed and grinned, showing his shark teeth.

“Peep?!” (How?!)

“Did you think I was that stupid?”

“Peep!” (But whoever eats first becomes the owner of the blood!)

Mephistopheles rushed forward at the speed of light. He intended to lick the blood that spilled from the bottle Veilak had crushed.

But…

“Peep?” (This is… jam?)

“I received the blood yesterday. Today I prepared jam knowing your scheme!”

“Peep!” (This can’t be!)

“Kekeke. This is revenge, you Mephistopheles!”

While Mephistopheles cried and plucked at his wings at Veilak’s despicable laughter.

Park Gunwoo pushed up his glasses.

“Seo Wooju, can your friend talk to birds?”

“…I don’t know.”

Wuju avoided his eyes.
