Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 83

Seeing no particular reaction, it was certain that the Chairman hadn’t mentioned the fraud incident.

The usual On Jurim might have noticed, but lately On Jurim was…

‘Something’s strange.’

It was definitely strange! It was hard to describe, but he seemed to have some complex and subtle worries.

On weekday mornings, Han Gru would wake On Jurim and take him to the bathroom to brush their teeth together – that was how their daily routine started.

But he looked much more tired than usual, nodding off drowsily…

“Guild Leader, that’s not a toothbrush.”

“Ah.”

He even tried to brush his teeth by putting toothpaste in his mouth instead of the toothbrush.

“Guild Master… Are you alright? You’re wearing your shirt backwards…”

“Ah.”

He only noticed he was wearing his shirt wrong after Aunt told him.

Usually he was like a lazy sloth, but now he was like a raccoon trying to wash cotton candy in water.

Timing-wise, On Jurim seemed to have become strange after the parent observation presentation, so maybe fatigue had accumulated from too many people at kindergarten asking for photos and autographs.

‘Right now, Guild Master becoming a cotton-washing raccoon would actually help Han Gru’s plan though.’

In Han Gru’s hand was a rabbit-eared toy tablet.

A star shape twinkled on the screen. Tapping it would show the target’s address.

As he had told On Suhyung, Han Gru was really fine. He had no intention of letting this slide easily.

‘Did they think Han Gru would just sit back and watch?’

He had secretly attached a small ‘Spy Ladybug (C)’ toy to Ham Honggi. The ladybug would tell him Ham Honggi’s location.

Then he would use the skill ‘Dungeon is an Open Door’ to follow anywhere and completely block his path.

Though no one had taught him, Han Gru was also a perfect Hyeonak person.

Han Gru stuffed toys into his ‘Expand Bag Bag (C)’ that he had made to hold anything.

The 20 million won in Onion Coins was Han Gru’s blood and sweat. If a villain who had never earned money with their own hands looked down on that, Han Gru would become a dazzling avatar of revenge.

‘Chaos! Destruction! Revenge!’

The Black Flame Dragon sleeping deep within Han Gru was craving the villain’s blood. He should put it back to sleep quickly. Kukuku, Han Gru laughed and covered one eye with his hand as he was turning dark.

His mobile phone buzzed.

A disaster alert appeared on the screen.

[Emergency Disaster Alert]

Safety Notice: RP Dungeon occurred today near Woongin Life Headquarters in Mapo District. The area is under control, please detour vehicles and refrain from approaching.

‘RP?’

It was a grade he had only heard about in the online education for getting his Hunter License before. It was such an unfamiliar grade that he had never heard of it otherwise.

‘So Guild Master is late because of this?’

According to the Awakened Special Law that I had studied diligently due to this fraud incident, hunters could be forcibly deployed to dungeons.

And On Jurim was first priority for forced deployment. Just like during the Great Dungeon incident a year ago.

‘Will Guild Master be okay?’

Maybe he’d have to take off his gloves like back then. Then wouldn’t he need Han Gru?

‘But considering he said he was going to buy Strawberry Creamy Sweet Fairy Blast Bomb Light Fuse Candy, maybe not…’

Should I ask? Just as Han Gru was holding his mobile phone and hesitating, the egg placed on the window sill cracked with a splitting sound.

“Shakipiyo!”

Han Gru carefully brought the egg over and placed it on the desk.

‘Is it hatching?!’

After staying up for days with sleepless eyes waiting patiently with no response, I had just placed it on the window sill to try warming it with the sunlight’s temperature.

‘My heart is pounding!’

It was the first time in my life seeing the moment of hatching.

Han Gru set everything aside and waited for Shakipiyo’s movement.

As I watched quietly, the egg trembled. Each time it did, cracks appeared here and there as shell pieces the size of sand grains fell to the floor with soft thuds.

‘Would it be okay for Han Gru to help break the shell?’

It was just as Han Gru was about to go out to ask Aunt.

Crack!

Thin twig-like bird legs wildly kicked the eggshell with a thud. Then another thud on the opposite side.

With just two legs sticking out of the egg, it stood up firmly while stepping its feet.

Wobble wobble.

Shakipiyo couldn’t see ahead and seemed to have trouble moving, swaying left and right unsteadily.

Han Gru blocked it with his palm before Shakipiyo could bump into the wall.

When Han Gru’s hand touched it, Shakipiyo startled in surprise, then came closer as if sniffing.

But it seemed difficult to smell through the shell, so it pecked at the shell with its beak. Soon a fingernail-sized hole opened and a tiny yellow beak poked out.

The beak found Han Gru’s hand and opened and closed happily a couple times. No crying sound came out, only the sound of air escaping twice.

Now with both legs and beak sticking out of the egg, Shakipiyo toddled over to Han Gru.

‘Wow…!’

Han Gru looked at Shakipiyo with a flushed face, finding everything amazing and endearing.

Sniff, sniff, the tiny dot-like nostrils embedded above the beak fluttered. As Han Gru’s scent got closer, Shakipiyo picked up speed.

Pitter-patter. But still wobbling. Then it spun around in circles before its bottom hit the floor.

“You okay?”

Han Gru gently lifted the egg and set it upright again.

Shakipiyo seemed angry about falling and pecked at the shell with its beak repeatedly. Crack crack, broken shell pieces scattered everywhere.

It seemed to have quite a temper.

After roughly breaking the shell, Shakipiyo trembled and shook off the eggshell pieces.

Now it had completely emerged from the egg, its full form finally revealed.

‘So cute!’

At first glance, no wings were visible, making it look like a white cotton ball. But it was definitely a bird.

Its overall shape was like a chick or long-tailed tit, but its body and face were a bit more plump and round. Its face looked like it had chubby cheek flesh protruding out.

‘So chubby and cute!’

Whether it was because of its fluffy feathers or not, Shakipiyo looked round and plump. But what soon caught my attention were its mysteriously colored eyes.

Golden irises with black pupils, and red pigment that seemed to have dissolved beside them. They were unique eyes I had never seen anywhere before.

“Peep!”

When Shakipiyo opened and closed its beak, a status window appeared before my eyes.

[Gru]

“You know Gru?!”

“Peep!”

[♡]

Had it been listening to everything while inside the egg?

Come to think of it, it had helped with various things even from inside the egg. Han Gru brightly greeted the baby bird that looked like a white cotton ball.

“Hello!”

“Peep!”

[♡]

Shakipiyo rubbed its cheek against my fingertip. The dense down feathers were so soft that Han Gru burst into laughter.

“So cute.”

Han Gru gently patted Shakipiyo’s head with his index finger.

“Mama Gru will raise you well.”

Shakipiyo rubbed its cheek against the index finger. It was just a beak, but it almost looked like it was smiling.

Shakipiyo stretched out its little bird legs on Han Gru’s palm, sat down, and made eye contact.

“Peep peep!”

[♡♡]

Two hearts. Han Gru was smiling contentedly when it happened.

Ding!

[Prospective caregiver detected. Caregiver registration is possible.]

“Huh?”

Isn’t Han Gru the mama? This side should be the caregiver… But why is it the opposite?

I pressed confirm for now.

In the caregiver window, the name ‘Mephistopheles’ was written. It seemed Mephistopheles was Shakipiyo’s real name.

‘So it was Mephi…’

What a shame. Han Gru had wanted to name the baby Shakipiyo.

‘But why isn’t it there?’

In the section where there should have been a profile photo, no photo appeared at all. Normally there should be a baby bird with chubby cheeks, right?

“Hmm….”

Han Gru narrowed his eyes.

“You’re really really weird.”

Han Gru pressed Mephistopheles’ cheek firmly.

“Peep!”

[♡]

The fact that a popup appears in the Status Window when Mephistopheles cries is also strange. Can it do many different things?

‘Huh?’

Han Gru, who had been pondering, suddenly picked up the Tablet.

‘It’s moving!’

The star shape moving meant that Ham Honggi had started moving.

After waiting a bit and checking the destination, a surprised voice escaped from Han Gru’s mouth.

“Mapo District?”

Han Gru alternately checked the disaster alert and the Tablet.

‘Don’t tell me….’

In the current situation, the only place that comes to mind is the Dungeon.
