Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 274
Let’s make a new item!
…Until reaching that conclusion, Han Gru’s mind was in chaos.
‘Gru, you keep causing trouble.’
At this rate, she’d be an unfilial daughter rather than a filial one.
As she sat quietly on the Thinking Chair reflecting, her desire to be praised and her desire to be helpful boiled over.
So Han Gru made a decision. She would prove that she wasn’t just a troublemaker!
When was the last time she received big praise?
Han Gru tried to shake off the memories of getting scolded for this and that, and pulled up memories of being praised.
‘The drone!’
That time when Han Gru first made a drone and tested it with Gidan! She got praised and even appeared on the news.
‘And when Gru made the Fluffy Cotton Candy, they praised me too.’
New item = praise!
Han Gru’s eyes sparkled.
For praise and filial piety, she needed a new and amazing item!
It absolutely wasn’t because she wanted to have fun.
‘And there’s a place to use it soon too.’
Han Gru took out her mobile phone and searched for ‘exchange match.’
All sorts of articles were filled with anticipation about the exchange match.
[Soon ‘Justitia Exchange Match’ Opens! Attention Focused on Korean Representative Selection!]
Justitia is an international private school foundation specializing in Awakened that establishes and operates campuses around the world.
Thanks to this, they could regularly hold exchange matches with other countries.
Due to Justitia’s nature of gathering promising Awakened, the exchange matches were essentially like national rookie competitions.
Because of this, people’s interest was immense, and it even reached the level of a national sport.
With such high status, it was only natural that large guilds would take turns serving as coaches for the Korean Justitia representative team.
And this time, it was Hyeonak’s turn to serve as the Korean team coach.
Moreover, there were a whopping 3 S-Rank Awakened from Hyeonak attending Justitia!
Gidan, Sergey, and Han Gru!
Han Gru thought of the names and put an X mark over her own name.
A whopping 2 people!
So it was obvious that Gidan and Sergey would be selected for the starting team!
Han Gru clenched her fists.
‘I’ll make an amazing item for my brothers and get praised!’
Then Dad would be happy too, right?
It was when Han Gru was smiling, thinking it was a perfect plan.
On Jurim, who had walked briskly into the study room, said.
“Gru, daddy has to go out, so stay home with Aunt.”
Gru hopped down from the chair and headed to the entrance to see Jurim off.
“I’ll be back. Don’t cause any trouble.”
“Yees. Please come back quickly before Gru falls asleep.”
Gru grinned widely and clung to Jurim’s arm, using the filial piety skill ‘Gru’s Hands are Healing Hands.’
“Yeah, I got it.”
Feeling his magical power replenish, Jurim kissed Gru’s cheek and stood up.
“Bye-bye!”
“Take care, Guild Master.”
Jurim waved to Gru and bowed his head to Yeongran before hurriedly leaving the house.
Bang, beep-
As the door closed, Gru ran “odododododo” to the study room and stood in front of the workbench.
Snap! Snap! He put on gloves and wore goggles.
Gru, fully equipped with safety gear, took out all the Critato Reactors from his inventory and lined them up in front.
Then he lowered his eyes.
He would create new items using the Critato Reactors!
Magic stones were the foundation of all items, and the higher the output, the greater the item effects would naturally be.
‘But the highest grade Gru can make is still C-rank.’
Even C-rank far exceeded the efficiency of existing high-grade magic stones, but-
‘It’s not enough.’
It would need to be at least S-rank seed potatoes to receive sensational praise.
Gru stroked his chin.
Although the grade was gradually increasing, repeatedly planting and growing was too inefficient a process.
Because it required waiting for such a long time.
And even after all that waiting, improvements didn’t always succeed.
But what if he used the oven to directly inject Filial Piety Points?
Wouldn’t seed potato improvement be possible?
‘I’ll know if I try!’
Gru put in a pitch-black C-rank seed potato and turned the oven dial.
He decided to generously put in about 100,000 Filial Piety Points.
Whirrrr-
As the oven started running, the black seed potato began to heat up.
Thump thump.
Gru’s eyes sparkled as he watched the seed potato being baked inside the oven.
Ding!
And finally, the moment he opened the oven.
Poof!
With a sound like a potato farting, potato juice splattered onto his goggles.
Baked potato mash dripped down over his chubby cheeks that bulged out below the goggles.
“….”
Han Gru wiped his face with his gloved hand.
[Filial Piety Burst Seed Potato (F)]
‘Failure…!’
Han Gru opened the 【Crafting Helper for Children】 application and scanned the burst potato.
Soon a 3D blueprint appeared on the screen.
However, the highlighted part in the blueprint wasn’t the central reactor, but the potato peel surrounding it.
When he pressed on the peel, a window opened.
Seed Potato Peel (☠)→When synthesized with higher-tier items, it can increase hardness and improve reactor efficiency.
Below that, information about items that could be synthesized was also written.
[A-grade or higher plant-type monster bones, horns, tusks, etc…]
Han Gru stared intently at his mobile phone and tilted his head thoughtfully.
A-grade or higher byproducts aren’t easy to purchase. Usually you have to attend auctions.
Well-known guilds would have separate distribution channels though.
Han Gru, who had been imagining pestering Dad to buy this and that to make items, coldly rolled his eyes to the side.
‘No fun…’
I want to surprise him.
Han Gru wanted to see Dad’s face when he’d widen his eyes in amazement, asking when he had made something like this.
The more surprising it is, the more thrilling it is to get praised!
Han Gru crossed his arms.
‘Then should I go to a dungeon?’
Now that he knew raiding unregistered dungeons was a crime, he couldn’t just go to any dungeon…
Han Gru toddled over to the study room desk and turned on On Jurim’s laptop.
If he had to go through proper procedures?
‘I can just go with the guild members!’
Usually large guilds would recruit applicants on their internal websites to temporarily form teams for raids.
[Recruiting Temporary Team Members for Dungeon Raid]
Han Gru, who had checked the post that had just been uploaded, downloaded the application form template.
The form was simple, so he could easily fill in the blanks one by one.
Name: On Gru
Grade: F
Department: Parachute
Desired Position:
Then he got stuck on the last question.
As Gru narrowed his eyes, Mepi beside him also tilted his head curiously and stared at the screen together.
What could ‘desired position’ mean?
‘Desired… future aspirations…’
Future aspirations = dreams
Through fluffy word association, the answer was quickly derived.
‘Gru’s dream is…!’
Gru wrote ‘Supreme Being’ in the ‘desired position’ field and looked proudly at Mephistopheles.
Mephistopheles clapped as if to say well done.
Gru giggled and sent the completed application.
And he received the rejection email in less than 30 minutes.
‘Instant rejection?!’
After that, he tried applying three or four more times, but…
‘Rejected.’
‘Rejected again…’
Gru burst into the living room, fuming as he gripped his mobile phone tightly.
“Rejected!”
Thud! Gru collapsed onto the sofa as if falling.
Why won’t anyone take him?
Gru just wanted to officially participate in dungeon raids.
‘Could this possibly mean…’
That nobody needs Gru?
Gru, who had reached a dark conclusion, suddenly sat up and hung his head low.
Disappointing.
Gru just wanted to be helpful to the guild, to the world.
“Mepi, Bay…”
“Peep?”
Mephistopheles perked up his head, and Veilak, who was watching TV, turned around looking annoyed.
“Gru wanted to live cheerfully…”
“Chirp chirp!”
“…?”
“But the world won’t let me.”
Gru looked up at Mephistopheles and Veilak with a sullen face.
Then he stomped back into the study room.
Veilak followed his master’s retreating figure with his eyes as dark aura emanated from him, then scratched his ear and asked Mephistopheles.
“Why did he suddenly turn dark?”
Mephistopheles widened his eyes and covered his left eye with his wing.
“Chirp.” (The world wouldn’t accept us.)
A question mark appeared above Veilak’s head.
