Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 295
That’s when it happened.
A long shadow suddenly fell over Han Gru’s head.
A woman with swept-back hair wearing a stylish suit stood in front of them.
[Kwon Riyoung]
Han Gru read the name plate and opened his mouth in surprise. If she was wearing a name tag, was she a museum official?
But he could sense magical power from her. She wasn’t an ordinary person? Someone from the same industry?
When their eyes met directly, Kwon Riyoung smiled brightly.
“Are you friends here on a field trip?”
Then she lifted up Han Gru and Veilak in one swift motion.
“Eh!”
“Hm?”
Without a chance to resist, the two who were dangling were placed at the very end of the Chick Class line that was a few steps away.
Wuju, who spotted Han Gru, quickly moved back and came close to stick right next to him.
“Where did you go?”
“Well…”
Should he tell him that Veilak had caught Dongdong’s scent?
While Han Gru hesitated, the woman in the suit strode over to the Chick Class Teacher.
The two exchanged brief greetings, then the Chick Class Teacher introduced the woman to the children.
“Friends, look here. This person is the docent teacher who will help us explore the museum today.”
“Wow!”
“Hello!”
As the children greeted her one after another, Kwon Riyoung waved both hands.
“Hello, my little history expedition friends. I’m Docent Kwon Riyoung!”
Deer Mask, Samanda, smiled brightly.
She had used a shape transformation item to deliberately make contact with the Chick Class in the appearance of Kwon Riyoung, who was Chief Secretary Kwon Honggoon’s daughter and a docent at the National Central Museum.
Targeting a child was quite an irritating thing to do, but she had no choice.
Due to the previous incident, Obsidian was in an almost completely devastated state.
Regardless of the others, she had to rescue at least Obsidian’s leader.
But rescuing the leader by herself was impossible.
Instead, if she successfully completed this commission, Chief Secretary Kwon Honggoon would lend his power.
She steeled her resolve.
‘Shall we begin then?’
Thick magical power rose from her as she focused her gaze on Han Gru.
At that moment, Mephisto sitting on Han Gru’s head and Veilak who was being held by the Chick Class Teacher tensed up and made eye contact.
If she intended to harm Han Gru in any way, they were ready to act immediately.
It would be a bit awkward with so many eyes watching, but…
While they hesitated, Kwon Riyoung’s skill shot toward Han Gru.
[Activating skill ‘Fortune Reaper (SS)’.]
At the same time, four cards appeared with a flutter before Kwon Riyoung’s eyes.
[Fortune Reaper (SS)]
-Draw a card to steal another’s luck. The luck produces the best possible outcome for the caster for a certain period of time.
She drew the card in the center.
Depending on which card is drawn, it determines how much of the opponent’s luck can be stolen.
But the result is always the same.
Misfortune for the opponent! The greatest luck for me!
When all the members were captured during the last mission, being able to escape alone was entirely thanks to this skill.
From small things like avoiding a stone in front of her feet, to big things like narrowly escaping moments of death.
She had the ability to swap her opponent’s fate with her own.
An SS-rank Special Skill that even the members barely knew about. That was ‘Fortune Reaper’.
‘A skill perfectly suited for this mission.’
Yes.
That’s how it should have been.
But…
[Skill ‘Fortune Reaper (SS)’ has failed.]
[The target’s luck is too high.]
[A small amount of the caster’s luck is stolen.]
‘What?’
The card she drew had nothing drawn on it and was completely empty.
There are no empty cards among the cards. It was an impossible occurrence.
‘This can’t be…’
It was an SS-rank skill. No matter how great the opponent’s luck, completely blocking it should have been impossible.
But it was blocked.
Even worse, the Skill Penalty activated and her own luck was stolen by The Child instead.
She looked back and forth between Han Gru and her Empty Card with a bewildered expression.
No matter how many times she looked again, it was unbelievable.
[Activating skill ‘Fortune Reaper (SS)’.]
[Skill ‘Fortune Reaper (SS)’ has failed.]
[The target’s luck is too high.]
[A small amount of the caster’s luck is stolen.]
…
…
.
‘Damn it!’
Despite the consecutive failures, she drew a card once more.
[Activating Skill ‘Fortune Reaper (SS)’.]
[Skill ‘Fortune Reaper (SS)’ has failed.]
[The target’s luck is too high.]
[A considerable amount of the caster’s luck is stolen.]
As she drew cards consecutively, the amount of luck stolen changed from ‘a little’ to ‘a considerable amount’.
‘…!’
Accordingly, the appearance of the card changed as well.
Until now it had been empty, but now a Grim Reaper emitting black energy was spinning a scythe in a circle. Then it looked straight ahead. As if waiting for her misfortune.
Her heart dropped with a thud.
Overwhelmed by The Child’s high luck stat, all of her own luck had been stolen.
Cracks appeared in Kwon Riyoung’s brow.
‘This doesn’t make sense….’
She blocked it with just luck? An SS-Rank skill?
‘This child…. What exactly is it?’
Kwon Riyoung’s trembling gaze, already pushed back from the first battle, reached Han Gru.
“Hm?”
Why is she looking at me like that?
Han Gru, who had opened his eyes drowsily, floated a question mark above his head, and Mephistopheles and Veilak confirmed that Han Gru was fine and relaxed their tense vigilance.
‘Hmm.’
Han Gru stroked his chin.
Seeing how she naturally wielded magical power, she certainly didn’t seem like an ordinary person, but could this be related to that?
Han Gru read the Status Window in front of his eyes again.
[Luck stat increases due to the influence of (Unknown Title).]
[Luck stat increases due to the influence of (Unknown Title).]
[Luck stat increases due to the influence of (Unknown Title).]
Pop-up windows were floating in succession before his eyes.
They had suddenly appeared after Kwon Riyoung drew up her magical power.
Something had definitely happened….
‘Hmm….’
Han Gru organized the situation in his head.
Luck = good thing
Increased luck = good things became even better
Then if Docent Kwon Riyoung and the increased luck are related?
In an instant, a light bulb flashed on above Han Gru’s head.
Kwon Riyoung = a person who makes good things even better!
‘Let’s stick together.’
A premonition that good things would happen.
Han Gru quickly jumped forward and grabbed Docent Kwon Riyoung’s hand.
Then it seemed like enormous luck was bubbling up that could even prevent the terrible things threatening her friends.
This is it!
“Gru wants to be partners with Docent Teacher!”
Eek! Kwon Riyoung tried to pull her hand away as if she had met a ghost, but held back with effort and put on a big smile.
“…Shall we?”
From afar, Wuju opened and closed her mouth in shock, but Han Gru just waved her hand telling her to stay there.
Kwon Riyoung, managing her expression with effort, patted Han Gru as if she found her cute.
Samanda Lee.
As Obsidian’s professional mercenary, she wouldn’t mess up the job over just one failure.
…Though it felt a bit unsettling as if even her remaining luck was being sucked away by this child.
“Then shall we friends go watch some fun videos first? We need to go underground, so let’s carefully go down the stairs~”
“Yes, yes, yes yes yes!”
Among the children answering energetically was Han Gru, who was tightly holding her hand.
When their eyes met, Han Gru smiled brightly.
‘Yeah, it’ll be fine.’
Just as she thought that, she almost tumbled down the stairs about 3 times, and at the same time was able to steady herself about 3 times thanks to Han Gru.
“Docent Teacher, be careful on the stairs!”
The child who had mercilessly stolen her luck gave her an innocent warning.
“Mmm… Teacher should be more careful…”
She had to answer while hiding her bitter expression.
At that sight, the children burst into laughter.
As Kwon Riyoung’s face turned red, the Chick Class Teacher smiled awkwardly.
‘Damn, damn! Damn!’
This was the first time she had experienced such humiliation since gaining the skill ‘Fortune Reaper’.
Taking a deep breath, she straightened her clothes and guided the children to the underground 4D Video Theater.
Causing an unlucky accident to target On Gru.
And saving On Gru in Kwon Riyoung’s appearance.
Though for some reason, those roles had been switched so far.
The preparations were complete. The operation would absolutely not fail.
