I Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 629

I pride myself on having faced countless situations while living in the Forest of the Four Seasons.

Falling into a world that was practically a fantasy in the first place was shocking enough, but the Forest of the Four Seasons was a place that even the people of this world considered a fantasy.

Whether it was a talking gorilla, a waterfall that defied the laws of gravity, an absurdly fast sloth, or just the cute Wonmo, and so on.

Although so many things had happened over the span of more than half a year, there were still plenty of fascinating things left.

Situations that were far more interesting than the fact that I—specifically, the person named Park Jong-hyuk—was actually the Chief God of this world.

Title) Let me show you guys something fucking awesome

Wild Grylls

(Video of a pair of Sky Whales mating in the sky)

It was none other than a video of Sky Whales mating.

Looking at it, it seems to be the Sky Whale I rescued before, but I have no idea why they’re doing that right above my house.

Anyway, it really is fucking awesome, so make sure to check it out.

ㄴHeavenly Demon) There have occasionally been those who posted videos of beasts mating... but this is truly wondrous.

ㄴSword Matstar) Should this be deleted? It’s a bit ambiguous...

ㄴAllfather) Absolutely not. This alone holds immense research value.

ㄴJust save it and delete it quickly;;

ㄴLook at how fast the upvotes and downvotes are climbing, lololol

ㄴIs it just me, or is this video going to be floating around every chance it gets from now on?

ㄴWe’re fucked, lololol

ㄴAt least since it’s a Sky Whale, it feels more fascinating than disgusting, lolol

ㄴThere was also a video of a hamster having a wet dream while sleeping last time.

ㄴWhy delete things like that? It’s just animals doing it, are you guys seriously getting turned on?

ㄴI don’t know about other races, but they say Beastfolk do get in heat, yeah.

ㄴAs expected of those beast bastards. Getting hard over something like that;

ㄴSuspiciously...) Do you humans get in heat when you watch monkeys mating? Seeing how you casually discriminate against other races, you are worse than beasts.

ㄴThat huge thing, surely... no, right? I’m seeing things, right?

ㄴAllfather) It depends on the size of the whale, but in the case of the largest whales, it tends to reach up to 3 meters.

ㄴStarlight Lady) Since Sky Whales are much larger than that, it must be even bigger. I believe for whales that large, the females are usually bigger than the males.

ㄴPrincess Chaenggu) Then is the one Grylls-nim freed a female?

ㄴStarlight Lady) That is highly likely.

ㄴI didn’t want to know this kind of information.

ㄴThanks to you, I’m leaving with one more piece of useless knowledge, fuck.

ㄴEven Sky Whales are mating, but Grylls is...

ㄴPoor bastard...

ㄴThe bastard who met that pretty Hero, but it only lasted for a single day...

ㄴI’m jealous, but since he’s trapped, I’m not jealous...

ㄴWild Grylls) You motherfucker

The Gallery users must have seen all kinds of strange things through me, but this had to be the first time they saw Sky Whales mating.

I myself was staring blankly up at the sky, so how could anyone else be any different?

I watched the pair of Sky Whales working out intensely in the sky and shook my head.

’Seriously, in all my life...’

Some people meet like mayflies and that’s the end of it, while others get to live a happy life.

What’s more, there was a high probability that one of those Sky Whales was the one I had rescued.

It seemed that as soon as I rescued her, she recovered her strength and came here.

Other Sky Whales also visited during specific seasons, so they seemed to have met at a very opportune time.

"Master. Seeing that makes me curious about something."

"What is it?"

"Have you ever mated, Master?"

"No."

"It seems a Unicorn will ask to be your friend soon."

"Do you want to sleep outside tonight?"

Seeing him mention a Unicorn out of all the possible metaphors, he must have read something on the Gallery.

Speaking of Unicorns, the one I encountered in the past suddenly came to mind. The one that went wild the moment it saw me, perhaps because it had eaten a poisonous mushroom by mistake.

Now, that creature had become an excellent crafting ingredient, and it was one of those beasts I never wanted to encounter again.

It was so aesthetically beautiful that I had felt bad about killing it.

"Buoooo~"

"Buoooo~"

"No, seriously. Why are they doing that right above someone else’s house?"

The problem was that this lovey-dovey couple, who gave me goosebumps just looking at them, refused to leave the sky above our house.

I could understand them visiting every summer, if only because of the insect swarms.

I could also understand the joy of being freed after being neglected for hundreds of years, and furthermore, meeting one of their own kind.

I could even understand them mating as soon as they met.

But even after finishing all of that, it was hard to understand why they were still flirting right above my house.

"Master. I learned a saying from the Gallery."

"What is it?"

"Double Standard."

"What double standard am I displaying?"

"Weren’t you also happy when you met your own kind, Master? Yet, it is strange that you complain when another animal meets its own kind."

"...."

Was it because he had been steadily reading books all this time? There wasn’t a single flaw in Lackey’s words.

Just as he said, shouldn’t the Sky Whales also catch up on their long-awaited reunion? So, I let it slide.

"Are you jealous? I knew it."

"You are seriously sleeping outside."

He just begs for a beating. Leaving behind Lackey, who had giggled and run away, I looked up at the sky.

They rubbed their bodies against each other in delight and made strange noises, expressing their affection without any restraint.

Especially the smaller one, the male, was particularly passionate. For the record, the one I rescued was the female.

How did I know this? It was thanks to the barnacles on the female’s belly. I had removed them from her back and blowhole, but there was nothing I could do about her belly at the time.

Puuuu!

The male stopped cuddling and began struggling to pry the barnacles off.This chapter was copied from novelping . com without permission.

He began dealing with the barnacles using the same water cannon he had shot at me before.

No matter how large and sturdy the barnacles were, they stood no chance against a water cannon blasted with full intent by a Sky Whale.

Hududuk—the barnacles rained down to the ground. I worried whether they might cause some problems.

Back at the Theme Park, it wasn’t my territory, so I could ignore it, but this area was different.

Just as I was thinking that I would have to clean up the barnacles soon, an anomaly occurred with the Sky Whale.

"Buoooo...!"

"Buo?!"

The Sky Whale receiving the water cannon flailed. She was crying out in pain.

Naturally, the startled male Sky Whale quickly stopped his water cannon. However, barnacles were still scattered all over her.

Having been neglected for so long, her durability must have severely deteriorated. Honestly, it was a miracle she was even alive.

She probably swallowed some insect swarms on her way here, but that wouldn’t have been nearly enough to satisfy her hunger. There seemed to be a lot of work to do.

"...But why are they looking at us?"

[May I make a prediction?]

"I’d rather you didn’t."

[Those whales are going to dump some chores on us.]

As soon as Cain finished speaking, the male Sky Whale began to slowly drift closer to us.

Even if he was smaller than the female, a Sky Whale was still a Sky Whale. As he approached, his sheer scale became overwhelmingly real.

’It looks like a giant battleship floating in the air.’

It was on par with or even larger than the battleship managed by the diver in the Land of Water.

If the male was like this, how massive must the female be? At least she was smaller than Vanir, so the sense of intimidation was slightly less.

"Buooo...."

The problem was that he had come to our Shelter. The Sky Whale let out a pitiful cry, communicating something to me.

Unlike when he blasted me with water, his demeanor was infinitely serious. His melancholy expression was a bonus.

"Dolsoe. What is he saying? Is he asking us to remove the barnacles?"

Instead of Lackey, who had run away, I asked Dolsoe to translate.

Dolsoe stared intently at the Sky Whale, then nodded.

"He says his female is in a lot of pain. Especially her belly."

"That’s because of the barnacles."

"He says she hurts on the inside, not just the outside."

"...."

A creeping sense of anxiety set in. First of all, she couldn’t be pregnant.

She had only just escaped, so pregnancy was out of the question. Her stomach must genuinely be hurting.

Then again, having been neglected for nearly hundreds of years, there was a high chance her insides were festering.

It was just that the pain from the barnacles had been more severe. I asked in a half-doubting voice,

"...He’s not asking us to help, is he?"

"Exactly. He said if we help, he will give us his most cherished treasure."

"I am a bit curious about a Sky Whale’s treasure."

Would it be a completely different treasure from the Sky Whale’s Tears I received last time?

It was an enticing offer, so there was no reason to refuse.

Besides, it wasn’t like we had to explore some far-off land; it was inside the Sky Whale’s body.

’...Actually, wouldn’t this be even harder?’

In any case, there was no reason to decline. The barnacles weren’t the main issue; it was her insides.

I nodded to indicate it was fine. But I had a condition.

"Then let me widen our yard first. It’s too cramped here, so it’ll be hard for her to land."

"Buooo."

"He says not to worry about that."

"What?"

My confusion at Dolsoe’s translation lasted only a moment.

Puaaaaak!!!

The Sky Whale fired a water cannon at the surrounding area. But its power was terrifying.

Trees that would normally require heavy axing collapsed in heaps, as if struck by a landslide.

It was powerful enough to look like a laser beam rather than a water cannon, as if he were conducting demolition work.

"Buo!"

"He asked, ’Is this enough?’"

"...Uh. Yeah."

The landing zone had become completely clear in an instant. I couldn’t hide my bewilderment.

I realized that the water cannon he had blasted at me in the past had truly been fired in jest.

I even wondered if they used to employ these creatures like war elephants rather than keeping them as pets.

Anyway, since the Sky Whale had lent a hand, I had to do my part. Before long, the female Sky Whale also landed quietly.

"Buooo...."

"She apologizes for causing trouble."

"Good girl, good girl."

I told the Sky Whale it was fine and walked toward the entrance. That is, her actual mouth.

Since they said her insides were the problem, it would be best to prepare thoroughly. However, there was a catch right from the start.

"We’ll exclude the children from this exploration. And you too, Cain-ssi."

[The children are one thing, but why exclude me?]

"It’s because of the stomach acid. If you go in your Dullahan form, you’ll probably melt, you know?"

It was indeed the stomach acid. Entering through the mouth meant reaching the stomach.

Stomach acid is a highly potent corrosive substance, and a Sky Whale’s would be even more extreme.

Therefore, it was wise to only bring personnel who could withstand or protect themselves against stomach acid.

"And since we shouldn’t lose our way on the return trip, we’ll use World Tree thread... Ah, will World Tree thread melt too?"

[As far as I know, World Tree thread is practically unbreakable. If all else fails, we’ll have to use signposts.]

"There’s a lot to think about. I don’t think we can start the exploration immediately."

There was no telling what kind of disaster might occur if we acted on impulse.

So, when I asked if they could give us about a day, the answer came back that it was fine.

Apparently, even if she returned to the sea, she would definitely be in danger in this state anyway.

’Is the sea their habitat?’

In any case, the group put their heads together and shared opinions on exploring the inside of the Sky Whale.

First, we had to watch out for stomach acid. Second, navigation. Third, any unknown enemies that might be inside.This chapter was taken from novelpi⁠ng.com without permission.

"Master. I know a similar zone."

"Where?"

"The neighborhood next door."

"Next door? Ah, the Land of Fire?"

"There, we only had to watch out for fire."

I nodded at the opinion offered by Lackey, who had stealthily crept back over.

Indeed, other than the difference of being inside a whale’s body, it wasn’t much different from exploring any other region.

Except for the presence of stomach acid and the slightly harder navigation.

Furthermore, unlike the brilliantly bright Land of Fire, the inside of a whale’s stomach is pitch black.

Therefore, torches or Light Crystal Orbs were essential. There were many factors to consider.

Above all...

"...We’ll have to bring gas masks too."

"Is it because of poison gas?"

"No. Because I think the stench will be awful."

"We’ll definitely have to wash up once we get back."

The stench would be no joke. It would probably be as bad as poison gas.

How did I know this? It was simple.

"First of all, we should probably brush her teeth."

[They look more like a strainer than teeth.]

"They are incredibly dirty."

Because the whale’s teeth, which looked like a strainer, were extremely filthy.

When I asked Allfather, he said it depended on the species, but baleen whales were mostly like this.

In any case, we had to clean this first so she could eat properly in the future.

"Here, take this."

"What is this?"

"A brush. It’s good for scrubbing every nook and cranny. Take a gas mask too."

"...."

And so, we began by cleaning the whale’s teeth.

I really seem to be experiencing all sorts of bizarre things.

"Huu..."

Around the time Grylls began cleaning the inside of the whale in earnest.

Ash wiped her dripping sweat with a towel and let out a deep breath.

Regardless of having received a precious seed from her beloved, steady training was always essential.

Furthermore, since her realm had unintentionally risen recently, she needed to organize her thoughts.

’It’s good that I’ve grown stronger... but it feels like something is lacking.’

A Grand Sword Master is a realm that only an unparalleled genius can reach.

They are beings who might appear once in a century, and leaving their name in history is incredibly easy.

Yet, Ash felt uneasy. And for good reason, as her realm had essentially risen through a shortcut.

She hadn’t gained any particular enlightenment, and it felt as though she had forced her way through the wall using a legendary Spiritual Medicine.

’That’s one thing, but having to fight while holding a flowerpot in my hand is incredibly inconvenient.’

Ash turned her head. A flowerpot sat neatly on top of a resting chair.

Anyone could see it was a flowerpot decorated with the utmost love and care.

Naturally, Ash’s mother had shown off her skills to decorate it.

She felt slightly embarrassed by her mother’s fuss, but since it was her mother’s love, she let it slide with a smile.

’Instead of holding this in one hand, is there any way I can make it float?’

Ash thought so as she flicked her finger.

At first, it was an action done without any real thought.

Seuk—

"Huh?"

Then, to her surprise, the flowerpot slid slightly.

Wondering if it was just her imagination, she flicked her finger again.

The flowerpot slid sideways once more. It was not an illusion.

The problem was that, perhaps because she had pushed too hard this time, the flowerpot fell off the chair.

Startled, Ash made a ’gesture’ of lifting the flowerpot.

Dudungsil—

An event occurred that surprised even Ash.

Without any courier touching it, the flowerpot floated gently into the air.

While wearing a bewildered expression, Ash carefully placed the flowerpot back onto the chair.

As if it had never fallen, the flowerpot settled neatly back on the chair in a graceful posture.

"...."

Ash stared at the flowerpot for a moment, then looked at the training sword stuck in the ground.

She reached out, and the sword flew smoothly into her hand.

It was Telekinesis—a technique that any high-level expert should naturally be able to perform.

’But what happened just now wasn’t Telekinesis. It was something only mages would use...’

Psychokinesis. Yes, psychokinesis.

However, Ash was practically an ignoramus when it came to magic.

Furthermore, psychokinesis was generally considered a fairly high-level spell even among magic.

At this, Ash pondered for a moment, then relaxed her grip on the sword.

The sword, which normally should have fallen to the ground according to the laws of gravity...

Dungsil—

...floated in the air, as if completely unaffected by any force.

Not only that, but it even moved naturally in accordance with Ash’s hand gestures.

Although it would be difficult to replicate her actual swordsmanship with this, it would still be of immense help.

Regardless of that,

"Oh...! This works perfectly!"

Ash flashed a bright, toothy smile at the fact that she no longer had to carry her precious flowerpot in her hands.

Completely unaware of the incredible realm she had just stepped into.
