Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 36
Gru entered the agency app and registered the potion’s information.
While waiting for his Hunter License, Gru had been singing so much that On Jurim taught him how to use the Hunter Market.
In the Hunter Market, direct transactions were possible like in Onion Market, but usually people went through brokerage companies. Setting prices and handling transactions was quite a hassle.
Having roughly understood those difficulties from his previous Onion Market experience, Gru nodded.
Actually, disposing of guild members’ farming items (items obtained from hunting monsters) or crafted items falls under guild jurisdiction. Like the items that came from Malikian this time.
But…
“You get special treatment.”
On Jurim said indifferently. Then he repeatedly warned not to visit the Sales Department asking them to sell syrup or toys.
‘Hmph!’
Gru thought that being called “special treatment” probably didn’t mean anything good.
Anyway, that was why he was trying to sell through the Hunter Market.
With the explanation that going through a brokerage company allowed anonymous transactions and they’d handle all the troublesome procedures, Gru had completed his membership registration with a brokerage company as soon as his Hunter License arrived.
‘Sales… application…’
He was in the middle of pressing the sales application button on the app.
Bzzt-
[Everything you want is here! Click now!]
The Kids Phone screen flickered with slight noise, then an advertisement notification from Onion Market appeared.
“Uwung?”
He was curious, but he didn’t need onions anymore.
Without hesitation, Gru dismissed the notification and stood up, shouldering his bag that was bulging with syrup bottles.
Just then, the room door opened.
“Are you all ready?”
“Yees!”
Gru came running with a pitter-patter, but instead of opening the door wide, On Jurim blocked his path.
“Uwung?”
“You’re going to carry all of that?”
“Yees!”
“Leave it behind. He can’t drink it even if you bring it.”
Shake shake.
On Jurim let out a quiet sigh and chose his words to explain to the child.
“Dan is like that because he drank too many potions. If you bring him that many, he’ll go bleh bleh.”
Gru also knew what condition Gidan was in.
That’s exactly why he had desperately packed so many potions.
“You fight fire with fire! You beat potion addiction with potions too!”
“Who said such a thing?”
“Nayeon unnie.”
What kind of talk is that to a child. Jurim covered his face with an expression of utter disbelief.
“Don’t play together, you two. Bad influence.”
“…!”
Gasp. To think he’d tell him not to play with Nayeon, who isn’t even a peer.
“Let’s go now.”
Jurim naturally took his hand. Gru laughed cheerfully and held hands as they left the room together.
“Auntie! Gru will be back!”
Gru bounced and waved his hand.
Yeongran, who had been preparing food in the kitchen, wiped her hands on her apron and saw them off.
“Alright, Auntie will make some delicious side dishes.”
“Yes!”
As Jurim bent down to put on his shoes, Gru whispered in his ear.
“Guild Master, you have to greet when going out.”
Since he couldn’t attend kindergarten and seemed to lack basic manners, rigorous training appeared necessary.
Though his mind seemed complicated.
“…I’ll be going.”
In the end, Jurim gave a brief bow to his aunt. Yeongran hurriedly returned the greeting with surprised eyes.
“P-please go safely, Store Owner.”
Yeongran stared blankly at the two departing figures.
In the five years she’d been coming and going as Jurim’s helper, she had never once received a greeting from him first.
In fact, she wasn’t the only one who had suffered from On Jurim’s antisocial nature.
Unless necessary, Jurim had always acted like a stone statue in everything. His social skills were lacking to the point of being nonexistent.
“Oh my….”
Now that a cute child has come, is he becoming more human?
Her worries about whether that man who found everything in the world bothersome could raise a child well became meaningless in an instant.

“Dan!”
As they entered the hospital room, Gidan, who had been looking at his laptop, greeted them with a bright smile.
“Oh! What brings you here?”
“In case you cause trouble again.”
“Ahaha! I don’t even have the energy for that now.”
Gidan laughed and hugged Gru, seating him in front of himself.
“Gru-gru, did you miss your brother?”
“A little bit!”
“Just a little? That’s too much. Are you going to make your brother sad?”
He laughed and tickled Gru.
Gru, who had been giggling, finally surrendered and prostrated himself saying he had missed them so much, so they finally let him go.
Hehehe, Gru snuggled close in Gidan’s arms and looked at the laptop screen.
‘Huh?’
Along with the teacher conducting class, students in school uniforms were shown in small split screens.
‘It’s the same uniform as Dan.’
Justitia International School.
It was a school established by a Global Private Foundation to provide intensive education for outstanding gifted students with magical power.
If they were in the same class as Gidan, they would all be gifted students with the potential to reach the top rankings.
Meanwhile, On Jurim looked around the luxurious hospital room and asked.
“Didn’t anyone else come to visit?”
Gidan tilted his head at the sudden question.
“No, there wasn’t anyone. You and Gru are the first. Nayeon noona and Team 1 said they’d come after work…”
On Jurim nodded slightly and sat nearby, picking up an apple. As his skill activated, the apple peel disappeared like magic.
‘Oh!’
Gru was amazed by the incredible micro control and took the apple, squeezing it around.
“It’s getting all over your hands.”
“Messy.”
On Jurim and Gidan spoke one after another, then On Jurim took away the apple and Gidan wiped Gru’s hands.
“Aww…”
Having his spoils taken away and being restrained in an instant, Gru pouted sullenly.
“Gidan, are you in the middle of class?”
As soon as the topic of class came up, Gidan’s expression changed and his shoulders drooped.
“They said I’ll have to repeat the year if I don’t meet attendance requirements. So I’m trying to catch up while I’m hospitalized. Most classes are remote anyway unless it’s practical training…”
Even S-rank students have their own high school student struggles.
Even at the orphanage, the high school older sisters and brothers had uniquely haggard faces. Hang in there.
Gru patted Gidan’s hand.
“High school is hard.”
Gidan chuckled.
“It’s harder than kindergarten.”
“Mm-hmm, kindergarten is fun.”
“Aww, that’s good.”
“How much attendance do you need to make up?”
“Just a few supplementary days. Like this.”
Gidan pointed to the laptop where class was in session.
When On Jurim put a piece of apple in his mouth, Gru eagerly ate it.
‘Crunch crunch.’
Meanwhile, Gidan turned on the laptop camera and playfully held Gru’s hands, making him do gestures.
‘Huh?’
As Gru appeared on screen making hearts and pretending to shoot, the students’ attention began to focus on him.
– So cute!
– What, what, she’s so freaking cute. Who is she? Your little sister?
– Wow. She’s really pretty.
– Hey, Gidan. Did you have a sister?
As comments about how cute she was came from here and there, Gru’s cheeks turned red.
– Guys, I know you’re excited since Dan came after a long time, but let’s have class.
At the Teacher’s voice, On Jurim let out a low sigh and picked up Gru again.
“Let’s go, time for class.”
“Oh, hyung! Hyung!”
As he tried to stand up while holding Gru, Gidan waved his hand.
“Wait, wait. Teacher, I need to step out briefly for Guild business, sorry. Oh, and she’s not my sister, she’s Gilma hyung’s daughter.”
– What?
– Daughter?
– What…?
Dumbfounded questions echoed back like an echo.
– Guild Master On’s daughter?
Even the Homeroom Teacher asked back with a face like the world had collapsed.
Despite the barrage of questions pouring down, Gidan closed his laptop instead of answering.
‘Daughter…’
Gru fidgeted with her hands, feeling awkward about being introduced as On Jurim’s daughter.
She glanced at On Jurim, worried he might be displeased, but he seemed unbothered.
‘Thank goodness…’
Gru calmed her pounding heart and let out a long breath.
