Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 90
He was approaching the farm while dripping blood.
“Squeeeek!”
“Kieeeeet!”
Chaeche and Han Gru were startled and hugged each other.
‘Scary!’
The man who had been approaching with that terrifying appearance soon stopped in his tracks.
“Han Gru?”
“…Uncle?”
‘Huh, why is Hong Sam Uncle here?’
While Han Gru was puzzled by the unexpected person’s appearance,
he shook off the blood and raised his arms to wipe his blood-stained face. But since his clothes were completely soaked in blood, it didn’t come off.
He scratched his cheek as if troubled, then looked up and smiled warmly.
Only his teeth showed white against his blood-stained face.
Scary!
“It’s okay, it’s not my blood.”
Was that really okay though?
Chaeche nearly lost her mind at this horror movie-like terrifying scene and screamed.
“Squeek-!” (Carnivorous squirrel!)
“Huh!”
There’s such a thing?
To this, Siwon gently replied.
“I’m omnivorous.”
“Huh?”
Is that how you respond?
“Ah, that’s not what you meant.”
He trailed off as if troubled, then spoke as if he understood.
“Ah, I’ve tried eating squirrel before.”
“Squeak?!”
Chaeche’s tail stood straight up.
How did he eat squirrel? Han Gru asked tensely.
“Flying squirrels too?!”
Siwon smiled gently and said.
“No, flying squirrels are protected under CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species), so I rarely had the chance.”
“Ah…?”
Han Gru raised the end of his sentence. So that means he would eat them if he had the chance?
Siwon went “Ah!” and clapped his palm-
“In a dungeon like this, I might have a chance to eat one.”
He said seriously, ‘CITES won’t work here either.’
The fact that he felt 100% sincere without a trace of playfulness made Han Gru even more frightened.
Han Gru hugged Chaeche and trembled.
Shiver shiver.
‘Hong Sam Uncle was such a scary person?!’
When the Squirrels handed him a towel, Siwon thanked them and began wiping away the blood. After cleaning off as much blood as he could, he asked.
“But Gru, why is there blood on your clothes?”
“Ah!”
“Are you hurt somewhere?”
Han Gru shook his head.
“I’m not hurt. It’s not that. Gru went to the Stream to get water. I found benefactor hyung.”
“Huh?”
* * *
“Cough!”
Sergey, leaning against the bed headboard, covered his mouth.
There was no telling how long recovery would take at this rate.
It might be better to rest here for a while.
‘More than that, the Squirrel Tribe…’
It was a tribe that looked quite harmless from the name alone.
Moreover, that baby flying squirrel was apparently the king of the tribe.
Sergey let out a chuckle.
‘What an absurd place.’
Outside the window, he could see the pastoral countryside scenery and a modest Farm.
‘Is that possibly an excavator?’
Watching a squirrel pulling a Mini Forklift at the Farm, Sergey rubbed his eyes.
It was modern heavy equipment that didn’t quite fit the scenery that could have come from an old masterpiece painting.
For a squirrel Farm, their farming methods were quite advanced.
“There’s all kinds of things…”
In any case, this place didn’t look dangerous at all.
Maybe he could let his guard down for a moment. That’s what Sergey was thinking when.
“Hyung!”
Bang! The Door opened.
Sergey’s eyes fixed on the man standing behind Han Gru.
His body froze solid.
“…!”
Ash-gray blonde hair stained with blood, slightly downturned eyes and green eyes.
Gnosis Hunter.
He had never faced him directly, but he knew that he possessed a high-level Reading Skill.
It must be the ability of that skill that allowed Nao Hyung to destroy all the eyes he had planted in the Management Bureau.
‘If I can recognize Gnosis through Reading…’
Jin Siwon approached the bedside with large strides.
‘At this rate…’
Sergey squeezed his eyes shut.
Jin Siwon’s hand reached toward him.
‘I’m going to die!’
Swoosh! The blanket was pulled back.
“The external injuries don’t seem too serious. That’s a relief.”
Jin Siwon spoke gently and smiled as if to reassure him.
“Don’t worry, this blood isn’t mine.”
That’s right… It would be my Mannequin’s blood.
“I heard you’re the one who saved Han Gru?”
“Huh? Uh…”
That did happen at the Auction House…
‘But really, does he not know I’m Gnosis?’
Sergey blinked blankly while looking up at Siwon.
The Gnosis Hunter who killed all the Gnosis that Irina created and picked out the countless eyes that Nao Hyung had planted?
“If you’re a snow leopard, you must have been in the Contaminated Zone, right? How did you end up here?”
Behind Sergey, Snow Leopard’s tail swayed gently. It seemed his tail had popped out because he was so startled just now.
‘Can’t he read me?’
Is he unable to use his Reading Skill right now?
It could be the influence of the RP Dungeon. He too had several skills restricted when he entered the RP Dungeon.
But he couldn’t just outright ask if his skills were restricted…
While Sergey was deep in thought, just staring at Jin Siwon, Han Gru answered in a clear voice instead.
“Big brother came floating down! Like a dead jellyfish, bobbing along!”
“Ah! So you came floating down from the Contaminated Zone like a dead jellyfish.”
“Jellyfish?”
Sergey scrunched up his face.
The innocent-looking man and the baby flying squirrel sat side by side next to the bed, smiling gently as they looked at Sergey.
Is the Gnosis Hunter originally this innocent?
“So! Han Gru used the Duck Clip like this to fish out the jellyfish!”
“Wow, Han Gru did that all by herself?”
“Yes! Right, big brother? You were a jellyfish, weren’t you?”
Han Gru’s eyes sparkled as if demanding he quickly confirm her achievement. Jin Siwon also looked at him with an affectionate smile.
Sergey hesitated before nodding once.
“Uh… Right. Like, like a jellyfish… I came.”
Damn it.
* * *
At Jin Siwon’s request, the Squirrels found bandages from somewhere and handed them over.
“How did you get injured?”
Jin Siwon asked as he wrapped the bandage around Sergey. His technique seemed practiced, as if he was used to this kind of treatment.
Sergey couldn’t say ‘I got internal injuries because you killed all the Mannequins,’ so he decided to give a vague answer.
“I was hit by [Erosion].”
“Are you from Kirus?”
Flinch.
When using difficult words, his native language would unconsciously slip out.
“No, Russia. That was from my mother’s side.”
Since Kirus, which was in the Slavic language family, wasn’t much different from Russian, Siwon nodded as if he understood.
“Ah, so did Snow Leopard come here with Brom?”
“Sergey, my name.”
“Seruhi?”
When Han Gru pronounced it with a drawn-out ending, Sergey chuckled and corrected his pronunciation.
“Ser-gey.”
“Ser-gey-”
“Yes, like that.”
Sergey, with the corners of his mouth turned up, gently tugged at Han Gru’s ears with both hands.
“You can’t hide your ears or tail, are you really a king? Aren’t you fake?”
“Hmph. Gru is young, that’s why!”
Siwon watched the two with an affectionate smile, and Sergey glanced at him.
Ah, Siwon opened his mouth as if he had just remembered something.
“I’m late with my introduction. I’m Jin Siwon, Team Leader of the Special Investigation Division at the Awakener Management Bureau. My previous name was Yevgeny Markov.”
Sergey felt awkward emotions surging and lowered his eyes.
To think he would hear an introduction while sitting face to face with a Gnosis Hunter.
But if it’s Yevgeny.
“Zhenya (nickname for Yevgeny)?”
Sergey frowned as if recalling something.
“Yes… that’s right.”
Siwon answered shyly and blushed.
“That’s interesting. Now, there’s no one who calls me that anymore.”
Gnosis Hunter.
‘Would it be better to kill him when he’s off guard.’
