Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 91
But his body still wasn’t in good condition. At this rate, he might be the one who gets hurt instead.
He had to at least join up with Nao Hyung.
Even if he couldn’t kill him right now, if Jin Siwon didn’t know who he was, it might actually be a good situation.
He could figure out the Gnosis Hunter’s movements or catch him off guard.
“I’m a mercenary affiliated with Freefall.”
Freefall was a guild under Brom.
“My rank is B.”
When Sergey continued like that, Han Gru perked up his ears.
“B?”
“Why?”
Sergey looked puzzled, but Han Gru glanced at Sergey with his big eyes once and then hung his head low.
Judging by how the guardian registration notification had appeared, Sergey’s rank was definitely S.
But Sergey had just introduced himself as B rank.
Then…
‘Is Sergey hyung also a power-hider like Han Gru?!’
Then Han Gru wasn’t the only special one. Besides, Han Gru’s Hunter License rank was listed as F.
“Tch, there are too many power-hiders.”
Han Gru muttered quietly, feeling a bit upset, but the two foreigners couldn’t understand and just looked confused.
“If you’re B rank, any guild would have taken you without you having to work as a mercenary.”
“I awakened not too long ago. I don’t know much, so I’m taking my time to learn.”
“Your Korean is quite fluent.”
“I’ve been in Korea for a while.”
“Study abroad?”
“No, I came to make money. I did that thing. Day labor? Everyone rides in a car together and works, then they pay you.”
A history of coming to Korea to make money and doing day labor was easier to fake than belonging to some organization.
“Ah… So farms or carrying cargo?”
“Built buildings, worked on farms too.”
And a history of working on rural farms was easier to gloss over than the Awakened industry.
“Then you must be good at farm work.”
“Well… I just did what I was told.”
“But you’re experienced.”
“That’s true, but…”
Before Sergey could elaborate further, the farm work novices started exclaiming in admiration and getting excited.
“That’s great! With an experienced person here, we can grow the acorns well!”
“Woaaa! Countless supreme acorns!”
“…?”
Don’t get excited – he’s also a novice.
There had definitely been palpable tension in the air, but their dumbfounded and docile reactions had deflated it like a punctured bubble, leaving him feeling utterly deflated.
In any case, he had caused an unnecessary misunderstanding. He should look for an opportunity to quickly slip away.
Feeling awkward, Sergey changed the subject.
“By the way, did you two enter the RP Dungeon together?”
“No way.”
“No.”
Only then realizing that Han Gru hadn’t come with Sergey either, Jin Siwon asked.
“How did you get here, Han Gru? Did you come with Guild Master On?”
Shake shake.
Han Gru shook his head.
“Gru came alone.”
“You came alone? Is that normal in Korea?”
“What? You came here alone? How? Why?”
Sergey shuddered at Korea’s terrifying Spartan education system that would send such a little kid alone to an RP Dungeon, but felt somewhat relieved by Jin Siwon’s reaction.
Han Gru recalled that day again at their intense reactions.
Hah! The Black Flame Dragon sleeping in his heart stirred as the pain of that day pierced through him.
It felt like someone was hitting his head with a spoon, thunk thunk… that sensation of his head spinning and his neck stiffening!
Han Gru covered one eye with his hand as he recalled the anger of that day.
“Gru came to get revenge on Ham Honggi.”
“…”
“…”
Sergey quietly asked Jin Siwon.
“Is ‘revenge’ a homonym in Korean? Does it have a different meaning besides revenge?”
“I’m not sure either, but it probably does.”
The two foreigners couldn’t quite comprehend a 4-year-old’s desire for revenge.
* * *
“Gru made a request on Onion Market to find mommy and daddy. But the bad person scammed me.”
Han Gru trembled his two adorably clenched fists as he explained that day.
Han Gru explained in detail how he came to know Ham Honggi, from being scammed by him to finally turning dark after their encounter at the law firm.
He also explained how he ended up following Ham Honggi into the dungeon and became a flying squirrel growing acorns.
“The bad person is with the Snow Leopard Tribe, right? Gru will go there too. Revenge!”
“…”
“…”
Siwon and Sergey, who had listened to the entire story, fell silent for a moment.
At the end of their complicated gazes, the baby flying squirrel was chanting about revenge.
After much consideration, Siwon concluded.
“Then let’s focus on growing the acorns first.”
“Right.”
“Huh?”
Sergey answered nonchalantly, and Han Gru startled and perked up his ears.
“Flying squirrels are supposed to grow acorns. Since uncle is a squirrel, Gru will help you grow acorns.”
“Gru has more important things to do!”
Regardless, Siwon grabbed his chin and asked seriously.
“It seemed like the squirrels planted acorns today, but I’m not sure if it’s possible to harvest acorns after planting them now. Do trees grow that fast?”
“Of course not. But this is inside a dungeon and the environment will be different. The planted acorns will be special too.”
“Hmm, so the timeframe is tight because the conditions make it possible.”
“Probably.”
Nobody’s listening to me!
Gru’s shoulders trembled, then he raised his fist with a solemn expression like he’d seen in labor union strike documentaries.
“Gru! Absolutely! Revenge!”
“It’s dangerous.”
“No way.”
Jin Siwon and Sergey said simultaneously.
Without needing to exchange opinions, they had reached a tacit agreement that they couldn’t send a 4-year-old who wanted revenge to the Contamination Zone.
Puff! Gru inflated his cheeks like balloons.
“Sergey. The Contamination Zone is dangerous, so please stay here a bit longer before you go.”
“Not Sergey-ssi, just Sergey.”
“If it’s okay, I’ll call you that from now on.”
“It’s fine. And you’re telling me to stay here and help with the Acorn Farm work, right.”
“Ah, you caught me.”
Siwon blushed shyly and shrugged his shoulders.
Sergey scolded him, saying he saw him getting excited about being experienced earlier, so why was he making excuses now.
Gru, who had only been huffing and puffing, stuck out his mouth like a bird’s beak.
Adults always ignore what children say.
‘Children have feelings too.’
It’s upsetting, but there’s nothing I can do.
‘Gru has no choice but to stay strong on his own!’
Sergey was from the Snow Leopard tribe. Once his injuries healed, he would leave for the Contamination Zone to rejoin his guild members.
Then that would be his chance.
‘I just need to follow Sergey hyung.’
Our acorn alliance is only temporary.
Sergey and Siwon were drawing up the future of the Acorn Farm without knowing anything.
‘Naive adults.’
Gru was no longer the same Gru as before. The current Gru was one with a pitch-black heart where the Black Flame Dragon slept.
‘I’ll strike when you let your guard down.’
While secretly glaring at the two, Gru twisted his lips into a smile.
* * *
“Then I’ll only stay until I recover.”
Sergey replied indifferently and glanced at Siwon. The seemingly naive man was smiling innocently, unaware of anything.
‘More importantly, Ham Honggi…’
It seemed like a name he’d heard somewhere before.
‘Is it that guy?’
The guy causing trouble in Brom Guild seemed to have a name similar to Ham Honggi.
Sergey vaguely tried to recall the name, then shook his head from side to side.
What was the point of remembering? After finding the Core, all of Brom would die anyway.
The purpose of this mission was to purify the swamp with acorns and find the Core inside the swamp. To bring out the System Memory Storage Device itself.
Since a Dungeon Core could only exist under a boss’s sphere of influence, a Dungeon Break would open the moment they escaped with the Core, but that didn’t matter.
Sacrifice existed at any time and any moment. This time, he just happened to be on the side choosing the victims.
In fact, the more people fell into chaos, the better it was for them. Fear was easy to exploit, after all.
When the Dungeon Break opened, even the yellow Han Gru would have a hard time surviving…
Sergey glanced at Han Gru.
Still, directly sending him to his death left a bitter taste in his mouth. That was the only reason he didn’t send the child to the Contamination Zone.
He only planned to play along at the Acorn Farm for a short while.
Once his injuries healed, he would kill the Gnosis Hunter and leave.
