S-Class Hunter Heals with Monsters - Chapter 196

196. Dodaki’s private pool

* * *

It has been four days since Cheon Do-un returned to the island.

He was lying in a hammock when he opened his eyes to a scream he heard in the distance.

Today too, the three members of the Coconut Family were sparring with the chimeras inside the island.

“Everyone is working hard. How are those three?”

“Pretty good.”

The answer came back from the tree.

“Nam Ki-seok’s agility has improved considerably. Seok Woo-hyuk’s stamina has improved. Number 49 has become good at jumping.”

“Jump jump? Number 49?”

“Oh. He ran. We didn’t know it would end up like this in two days.”

Hearing the siblings’ words, Cheon Do-woon tried spreading his mana. After exploring the 49 qi, he smiled.

“It really runs.”

Number 49, who used to stumble just by walking, was now running on two legs.

“Rehabilitation is faster than I thought.”

It wasn’t that I lost the function of my legs in the accident, so once I regained the feeling of walking, I was able to run quickly.

Of course, it wasn’t as easy as it sounds. I just twisted my whole body and squeezed out all my strength because I knew I would die if I didn’t run.

Whatever it was, I ended up achieving my dream of walking 49 times.

“How long are you going to keep doing this…! Hey, stop! I want to rest now, ahh! My butt is bitten!”

Even though a pitiful scream echoed from deep within the forest, anyway.

It was a fair price to pay if I could run in four days.

“What about the chimeras?”

“Those guys have become quite useful. Their basic base was good to begin with. After they became wary of their surroundings, they have become completely flawless.”

The positive changes didn’t stop there.

“Our relationship has also improved.”

The siblings spoke as they looked into the forest with their bird-like eyesight.

“There are guys who do chain attacks.”

The chimeras that were here were at odds with each other.

Because we grew up in isolation in the lab, we had no time to become close, and after coming to the island, we each went our separate ways, so we had no time to become close.

Those chimeras now have a common enemy, and that changes their relationship.

The chimeras that had been at odds with each other began to unite.

Of course, the trio who had to deal with that were dying.

“That’s good.”

Cheon Do-woon laughed.

It was training to make Nam Ki-seok an S-class hunter, but as it went on, everyone’s abilities increased.

“Since it’s come to this. I need to make it so that no one has to go around getting hit.”

Isn’t there already no one who can hit them?

The siblings thought about it but didn’t say anything. They were the ones who prioritized fun, so there was no way they could stop Cheon Do-woon.

“By the way, where is Kim Na-ri?”

“I’m following that trio. I saw them sparring with the chimeras.”

Kim Na-ri, whose artistic soul was burning, ran around holding an easel and painted.

Kim Na-ri’s body vision captured the moment of their duel.

The hand holding the crayon moved quickly across the drawing paper.

“Grassroots? That 30cm chimera.”

“Kim Na-ri is carrying that too. She carries it on her back and draws pictures.”

Cheon Do-woon laughed at his siblings’ words.

I imagined Kim Na-ri, carrying an easel and crayons, running after the trio.

[Wow! This is fun!]

Wouldn’t he be running and shouting like that?

Kim Na-ri had to draw while avoiding the chimera’s attacks.

The grass roots carried on his back also had to be kept safe.

Although it was a much more difficult training than the three-person bare-handed training, Kim Na-ri regarded it as play.

“They can be left alone for a while. As for Dodak… .”

Cheon Do-woon looked at the beach.

There stood Dodak. When Cheon Do-woon saw that, the smile disappeared from his lips.

‘There they are again.’

The group is enjoying their life on the island to the fullest. But Dodak is not.

Since arriving at the island, Dodaki has been staring at the sea all day.

Dodak, a plant monster. He can’t go into the sea. He instinctively knows that, but he still wanders around the beach every day.

‘Do you want to go swimming?’

There was a possibility. As a plant-type monster, Dodak liked water.

‘I can’t go to the sea… so I’ll look for a valley.’

Cheon Do-woon walked into the island. Yu-beom pointed to the east.

“If you’re looking for a stream of water, go east.”

“east?”

“Oh. If you go further, you’ll come across a small valley.”

Yoo Beom, who noticed Cheon Do Woon’s thoughts, told him where the water path was.

“I don’t know if Dodak will be able to play in the water though. The terrain is rough with lots of pebbles.”

“It’s okay. As long as there is clean water, that’s enough.”

You can create your own water play area.

Let’s make a private pool for Dodak to play in.

Cheon Do-woon smiled as he headed towards the place his siblings had shown him.

* * *

Cheon Do-un arrived at the valley and looked around.

The stream the siblings were talking about definitely had rough terrain.

The current was fast because the water was narrow. The bottom was covered with sharp, angled stones.

If you play in a place like this, you’ll get hurt.

“It would be better to make a separate pool.”

If we’re going to build it anyway, let’s install it on the beach instead of here, Cheon Do-woon thought to himself.

I remembered Dodaki staring at the sea every day.

‘You probably want to go into the open sea, not a small spring.’

What Dodak wants now is to play in the ocean.

Sandy beaches, waves, and an endless horizon. That’s where I want to splash around.

So let’s make a big pool. Let’s fill it with water and put it on the beach.

Cheon Do-woon looked around. A huge rock came into his eyes.

“It’s just right.”

Something about this size would be fine.

Cheon Do-un pulled the thread out from his fingertips. As he snapped his fingers, the rock began to cut.

A stone basin that was once used to crush fluorescent mushrooms.

A basin was made to hold water in a similar shape.

3 meters wide. Deep enough to float around on a tube.

Considering Dodak’s body size, it was a very large pool.

‘Because you have to be able to go in and out on your own. Should I cut the inner wall into a staircase shape?’

Every time he moved his fingers, the rock creaked and was chipped away.

A small staircase was built on the inner slope. It was the size of a stepladder.

“With this, I should be able to go in and out by myself.”

Finish by smoothing the surface to prevent the puppies from getting hurt while playing.

In an instant, a 3-meter wide, private swimming pool was created.

Cheon Do-un filled the valley with water there.

After filling it to the brim with water, I carried it on my head and went to the beach.

“You even made a pool?”

The siblings’ eyes widened when they saw the pool that Cheon Do-un had created.

A man who knows no bounds. I laughed at Cheon Do-woon’s personality.

“Shall we begin now?”

“What are you going to do?”

“I’m going to dig a hole the size of this pool. I’m going to fit this in there.”

Cheon Do-woon said, folding his arms.

If you just look at his expression, you can tell he’s an agent about to fight for his life.

But the job was to dig sand on the beach.

“It looks fun. We’ll help.”

The siblings sat across from each other and dug the dirt together.

The three disaster-level monsters crouched down and began playing in the sand.

The fine sand flowed between his fingers. Cheon Do-woon smiled at the soft sensation.

“It’s pretty interesting.”

Playing in the sand at the beach for the first time in his life, Cheon Do-woon opened his eyes to a new world.

“What? Is this your first time playing in the sand?”

“It’s the first time.”

“Really? Then I guess I can’t not show you this.”

The Yoo Beom siblings have lived in the sea for a long time. It is time for them to show their dignity as seniors in sand play.

“Yujia.”

Yoo Beom called his younger brother.

“Okay, brother.”

She flew home and brought a glass of water. She scooped up some seawater and sprinkled it on the sand.

“Haha, if you spray water like this, the sand will…!”

Yoo Beom pointed to the wet sand.

“Ta-da.”

Next to her, Yujia added a sound effect. In the meantime, Yubeom dug the sand.

“Look, wet sand can be carved into any shape you want!”

The sand was dug into a square shape like a pool. Cheon Do-woon touched the wet sand and nodded.

“Indeed. It’s gotten stronger. It’s fun.”

“Right? But we don’t stop here! Let’s pour this watered-down soil into a cup and spill it!”

Yoo Beom pressed the wet sand into the cup. Then he turned the cup upside down.

I gently lifted the top of the cup and a cup-shaped piece of sand was revealed.

“Ta-da.”

Next to her, Yujia said the second sound effect.

The Yoo Beom siblings lived inside the gate without any interaction with people. Their banter was very well-matched.

“It’s real from now on. Yay!”

Yoo Beom knelt down in front of the cup-shaped sand with a shout.

I gently scratched the surface with my finger and a window was created.

It didn’t stop there. Yoobeom took out his hook-shaped nails and scratched the surface of the sand.

A brick shape was drawn. Yujia placed the leaves she had prepared in advance on top.

“flag!”

“Done! How is it? If we do this, the flag-top tower will be complete!”

Yoo Beom, who had completed the tower, said while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Yujia pointed to the tower with both hands. It was a ta-da pose.

“That’s amazing. You can do this with sand. You’re really talented.”

Cheon Do-woon admired the tower with an interested expression.

80-year-old adults who have never played as chimeras since childhood.

They were delighted with the sand castle they had made out of cups in front of them.

The tower has been built. The hole for the pool has been dug. Now all that needs to be done is the finishing touches.

Cheon Do-woon put the pool filled with water into the hole in the floor.

The bottom of the pool is covered with a shallow layer of beach sand.

I also put in a few rocks. These were safety rocks that I could use to get right back up in case I fell off the tube.

To create a more realistic landscape, seashells collected from the beach were also spread on the floor.

The mini ocean pool has been completed.

“Okay. Perfect.”

Now it is Dodak’s turn to be judged, the star of the pool.

Cheon Do-woon went to Dodak.

Dodaki was gazing at the sea, but occasionally glanced at Cheon Do-un.

-Huh?

“Okay, it’s all done.”

Cheon Do-woon lifted Dodak and took him to the pool.

Dodak’s eyes widened when he saw the pool. He stamped his feet as if he wanted to get in right away.

Can I put it in with clothes on?

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to just get it.

When I’m this excited, it’s rude to waste time taking off my clothes.

“Okay. Get it.”

The water is cold, so start by dipping just the tips of your toes in it.

As soon as his feet touched the water, the squirrel flapped its feet.

-Whew!

“Yeah. It’s water. Is it good?”

Cheon Do-woon slowly put the dodak into the water.

When I let go of his hand, the upper half of Dodak’s body floated up due to the tube.

-Ouch, oh yeah!

It’s cool!

Dodaki stomped his feet. A current was created and the tube moved forward.

King Dodak. A mandragora that has lived for over 60 years.

Although the roots were mature and survived landslides, it was the first time that even a root like that had floated on water.

-Phew…!

Dodak started tapping the tube with his forearm.

Bobobong, bongbong. The rhythmic sound rang out. The trunk’s roots shook from side to side.

The tube-riding dodak started dancing with joy.

“I guess you like it.”

Cheon Do-un smiled. This made everyone on the island happy.

As they were smiling happily, a dark shadow approached them from behind.

“Z, it looks fun.”

I heard a sinister voice. I raised my head and saw Nam Ki-seok, covered in dirt, walking towards me with a limp.

“This place… this island… is a resort area only for the hyungs.”

Thud. Nam Ki-seok fell down after saying those words.

Number 49 and Seok Woo-hyuk, who were following behind, also fell one after another.

“Why are you here? I told you not to come near the beach because there’s a turtle there.”

“That, that’s true… but I have something to report to you… Ugh, is this all for me? Death penalty. Please… you… are all.”

Nam Ki-seok’s voice became smaller and then stopped. Seok Woo-hyuk spoke on behalf of the fainted man.

“I found a swamp inside the island.”

“swamp?”

“Yes. I am the doppelganger of the swamp. I felt a familiar vibe so I went to check it out and there was a swamp.”

Since it was a fairly large island, it wouldn’t have been strange to have a swamp or two.

What are you trying to report? Seeing that expression, Seok Woo-hyuk continued.

“It was a white swamp.”

Cheon Do-woon hesitated at Seok Woo-hyeok’s words.

White Swamp. The place Gu-u was looking for to regain his lost strength.

“That white swamp is on this island?”

“Yes, that’s right. Even the way they moved around was exactly the same.”

Seok Woo-hyuk held out his hand. As he released his human form, his hand turned into mud and clanked.

“Because I dropped a part of my body into that swamp. I can track you at any time.”

A white swamp where you can find the power of Gu-u.

It was discovered on the resort island of the Coconut Family.
