Chapter 1: it begins!

-In the void-

Michael, who was surrounded by darkness, suddenly heard a mechanical voice.

[Initializing reincarnation process.]

[Scanning the soul- beep-beep-beep…..

ERROR! ERROR! Memories not deleted correctly, soul not cleaned!

Forcefully reincarnating the soul…]

'Come on! Almost there! Just reincarnate me bitch!'

In that moment a blinding light shone in the distance and made its way towards Michael.

It only stopped a few feet away, close enough for him to see what it was.

'What is that? Wait, a piece of paper? What's written there… ugh! the light is too strong, I can't see..'

[Special program detected. Forceful reincarnation overruled.]

'Special program? No please! Did they find me out already?? So close! Damn!'

[Authorization needed….beep! Authorized by user 'King Enma']

'Oh no! It's that bastard!'

[Loading the special reincarnation program.

Beep-successful

Displaying report

beep!]

Instantly the paper disappeared and a computer screen lit up in front of his eyes.

'Now what..'

'What the hell does it mean? Hxh..? sasuke limited edition?? What?'

[Thanks for purchasing the special reincarnation program! The reincarnation will start soon. 1 unread message from user 'King Enma', read?]

"Uh? Yeah, read"

['You fking piece of shit! Die in hell, you bastard! That was my chance you took. You are lucky we will never meet again! I hope that Hisoka will kill you in the first 5 minutes you piec…......you should rot...….The chimera ant ant will find....you average cunt...…..…maggot…..…..bastard…!...…And that is why you will die alone while I fuck your mom!!!']

'I don't understand what is going on, but that was an angry ogre if I ever see one. Still…his chance? Wait a second…maybe? No, impossible, but maybe…Did I get it right???oh God…tell me this is not a dream please!!'

'Let me look at the special program again…mmm…hxh? Good pick Enma! Sasuke limited edition?? What a weebo…still, good choice again!! The best of Sasuke's outfits without a doubt. Let's see.. what else do we have here..'

[End of message. Starting reincarnation in 3…2..1..]

Everything went black once again.

Zaban city- underground-

Fearsome monsters…Exotic creatures…vast riches…..hidden treasure….evil enclaves….unexplored lands.

The word 'unknown' holds magic, and some people are attracted to that magic, they are known as… hunters!!

The hunter exam, thousands of people every year try their luck, some fail to find its location, some fail at the tests, some fail to keep their life…and only a handful of them are able, in the end, to succeed.

In a vast underground area, the first test of this year exam was about to take place.

Hundreds of people had already arrived and were patiently waiting.

In the most inconspicuous corner, seated with his back against the wall, a young man of 15 or 16 years old was sleeping motionless.

The boy's spotless face scrunched up a bit, before finally his eyes opened wide.

"Ah!"

Everything happened so fast, one second Michael was drifting in the void, and the next he transmigrated in the young boy's body.

"I'm alive?"

The boy stood up and started to pat himself all over.

"I'm alive!! I'm alive!!"

The sudden ruckus gathered few people's attention. Michael, noticing their looks, tried to keep calm, and decided to sit down once more.

'Keep yourself together Michael! It's real! I've really transmigrated! For a moment I thought it was all an elaborate prank from king Enma in order to make a fool out of me.

Wait a second, does it mean that I'm really in the world of HxH? Oh God, I'm about to faint'.

After taking few deep breaths, when he was finally able to contain his euphoria, he tried to fully analyze his situation and reorganize his thoughts.

'For some unknown reasons, King Enma decided to use this so called special program, that he wanted for himself, on me.

From what he said, we will never meet again…Mhm I could speculate that following my bravado, he had to resort to this method as a cover up… Well, no point in over thinking about it'

'The special program had few optional. Intact memories… check; hunter exam timeline… check; Sasuke skin Orochimaru outfit limited edition...'

Looking below he could see black open sandals, black ninja pants, a blue overcoat tied with a purple rope and a white open shirt with wide sleeves.

'..check! I'm curious to see my new face. Wait, is this Sasuke's black Kusanagi?? Wha..? It came along the outfit? Nice!! Wow, so sharp!'

Ting!

Unsheathing the sword, the sheer quality of the blade was obvious even to the inexperienced.

A cold glint of light reflected along the length of the blade and Michael was finally able to see his face.

'Well..damn! That is what I call a handsome face.'

"Nice blade man!"

Michael, who was entranced in his new look, was fast brought back to reality by a man looming in front of him.

"Thanks…"

"It's your first time?" The man continued.

"My first time? What do you mean?"

Michael took that moment to scrutinize the man. He was a short and rather rotund middle aged male, with short brown hair and an unkempt stubble.

"Yes! I mean, it's your first time at the hunter exam, right? I've never saw you before…so"

"Oh? Oh yeah, I've never taken the exam before. Why do you ask?"

'This guy's familiar…'

"Guessed so…My name is Tompa by the way, I've taken the exam 38 times already. I'm one of those veterans that likes to help newbies like you. Only those who looks promising!"

'Tompa! He is that bastard that made is mission to cruelly sabotage other examinees, especially newbies.'

"Nice to meet you Tompa, my name is…"

'Somehow it feel wrong to use my name. Michael… that person is gone with my previous life. In fact, I don't want to be that person anymore. Should I use Sasuke? I'm basically him. No… too tacky. Mhm… I found it! Haha'

"..Enma, my name is Enma"

Said the boy with enthusiasm.

"Ok…Enma. How about I give you a couple of hints over a drink?" Tompa said rather weirded out by the boy's mannerism while shaking a can of juice.

"No thanks!"

"You sure? I'm a veteran after all and I could.."

"Sure! Don't need help from a person who failed 38 times…"

Tompa was flabbergasted to say the least.

"Humpf! Let's see how far you can go!"

He stormed away angrily.

'That arrogant shit! You are a little good looking and think you can treat me like this? I'm pissed off! Just wait' Thought Tompa.

Enma watched the guy disappear in the crowd.

'I need to be careful around him from now on… I bet if I didn't refused him firmly like that, he would have latched on to me. Can't waste time on him'

'Now that the vermin is gone, I should reorganize my memories regarding the exam. First test is a 80km run through the city's tunnels and a dangerous swamp outside. This body came with an above average physique so I should be fine with the first part. The swamp tough… I will have to stick closely to Satotz or some of the people I know will pass the exam'

"The hunter exam will now begin! I'm Satotz, your examiner for the first phase of the exam. You must follow me to the second phase. This is the exam's first test!"

'It begins!'
