Teacher Loki

Before the chapter starts, I just wanted to remind you all to leave a review if you like the story. It helps me a lot!

********************

"Nen is the ability used by people called Hunter's…."

"There are several unique training methods to practice nen, but there are two main ways to learn nen.

Machi, Nobunaga, and Uvogin were all listening extremely closely. If they had a pen and paper, Loki had no doubt that they would be writing his words down.

"The essence of nen is the ability to manipulate life energy otherwise called Aura. This can be used for attack or defense." Loki told them as he walked up to Nobunaga.

"Can I borrow this for a second?" He asked while pointing at his scabbard.

Nobunaga saw this and nodded without overthinking. Loki picked up the scabbard and backed up a bit.

"No matter how dull or fragile an object is, once entangled in aura, it will become sharper than any sword and harder than a piece of steel."

Loki immediately infused his aura into the scabbard. Loki then gently pushed the sword into the ground,

It was apparent that he put no effort into it, but in an instant, the scabbard sunk into the ground like butter.

The pupils of Machi, Uvogin, and Nobunaga shrank.

"This is the power of Nen," Loki said with a smirk.

Uvogin and Nobunaga looked at each other, instantly seeing the heat in each other's eyes.

"After comprehending Nen, there are four main principles that all new users must learn, which are Ten, Zetsu, Ren, and Hatsu," Loki spoke with a lecturing tone.

"These abilities will allow a practitioner's strength to skyrocket. You can enhance your strength, calm your mind, and eliminate your own presence. These are just the basics…" he said with a smile.

Hearing this, the three of their eyes widened a bit. Just these basic applications in the hands of veteran combatants could raise their power ten-fold.

"After this, several advanced applications combine these four basic principles; however, we can talk about this later," Loki said teasingly.

Loki finished his small lecture by answering any questions they may have before finding a cup of water.

"Any questions?" Loki asked.

Uvogin quickly raised his thick arm up.

"When can we learn to use Nen?"

Nobunaga also nodded along with Uvogin. He also wanted to ask this question.

Loki saw this and smiled.

"As long as you're ready, we can begin any time…."

Uvogin and Nobunaga once again agreed in unison, with Machi following behind. Loki saw this, nodded his head, and looked forward to them answering his next question.

"We can begin now; however, there are a few things you must know. Without a high level of physical fitness, it's extremely dangerous to learn Nen...." Loki said with his everlasting smirk.

Uvogin and Nobunaga would be fine as they looked around sixteen to seventeen years old. Their physical fitness was already reasonable, but Machi currently looked much like a malnourished child.

You must know that people like the Zoldyck family train their children all for the process of making more robust nen when ready.

Loki was curious how this situation would play out.

Machi heard this and didn't speak. She obviously understood the implication with her intelligence but didn't say anything for a moment.

"Is it impossible to practice Nen if your physical fitness is low?" Machi said, looking into Loki's eyes.

"It's not impossible, but the chance you will die increases…." Loki said with his teasing smirk.

Uvogin and Nobunaga didn't bother to add to this conversation. They both understood the implications, but they wouldn't interfere. This was ultimately Machi's decision, and they would respect it.

"I want to learn," Machi said calmly.

Hearing this, Loki's smile became that much bigger.

"How utterly fascinating…" he thought to himself, looking at her calm, resolute gaze.

The calm gaze reminded him so much of himself before he realized the world's truth. Loki didn't think she would die considering the future, but he wanted to see how she would answer.

The answer he received left him extremly pleased.

"If you want to learn nen there are two main methods like I talked about before. Out of these two methods I only know one of them. Keep in mind it is not even possible to interact with the world nen unless you have passed the Hunter Exam or have reached the 200th floor of Heavens Arena."

"The people who learn of nen after the Hunter exam learn systematically while most who reach the 200th floor in the Heaven's Arena receive a rough initiation to the world of nen."

This made them realize just how valuable the information on nen was and appreciated this more. Still, the three were somewhat lost to what Heaven's Arena was. Seeing this situation, Loki decided to explain.

"The Heavens Arena is a holy land for fighting the outside floor. There are over two hundred floors that gather fighting fans all over the world."

Hearing this, Uvogin and Nobunaga were somewhat excited.

"The floors below 200 are all normal fighters like you, and the floors above are the world of nen users."

Uvogin clenched his fists and smiled excitedly.

"When I have a chance to get out of Meteor City, I must visit this place!" Uvogin said excitedly.

Machi fiddled with her hair a bit as she wasn't interested in this place.

"Although Heaven's Arena advocates strength, it is not without rewards. The higher the strength, the higher the floor, which means you will get more rewards." Loki said, seeing that Machi was uninterested.

"Rewards?!" Machi said, suddenly interested in this place.

The original series shows how much Machi likes money, with her often staying in Heaven's Arena as a medical service.

"Why do many female characters in Anime and Manga love money so much…?" Loki thought with a wry smile.

"Yes, a reward. Whether a person wins or loses on the first floor, he can get a bonus of 150 jenny, which is about the price of buying a can of juice. However, if you lose in the next game, there is no reward."

"If you win on the fiftieth floor, you will get about 50,000 jennies, and the subsequent floors will receive corresponding rewards according to their level."

"Up to the 100th floor, there will be about 1 million in rewards, and the 150th floor and above is a bonus of more than 10 million jennies. If you win the 190th floor, you can get a bonus of about 200 million jennies."

Hearing this, Machi was somewhat shocked.

"Around 200 million jennies…." Machi muttered.

"Uvogin! I will go with you then!!" She said as the volume of her voice suddenly raised.

"Normally, if someone reaches the 200th floor and doesn't know nen, the old people will attack them. Obviously, this does not result well for newcomers as the gap between those who know nen and those who don't is like a grand canyon."

"Only by surviving their attack or mercy will these people have the chance to learn about nen. The other is, of course, taking the Hunter exam and passing." Loki told them.

Hearing this made them glad they hadn't gone to Heaven's Arena yet.

"There are three ways that I know of. One way is to meditate constantly before being able to sense life's energy. This is based on luck and how well your body integrates nen. This is the safe way but is also extremely slow. Some people could practice like this for their whole life and still not access their nen."

"The second way is to have someone inject their own nen into somebody, activating their aura nodes. This method will allow you to access Nen immediately, but if you fail, you will die," he said with a smile.

"Although there is a third method I don't know… The method I'm talking about is the one you can receive after passing the Hunter Exam. This means that you can either settle for option one or two."

All three stared at Loki thoughtfully and didn't dare to mess around.

"Let me make something clear, though. Although the second method is dangerous, there are no side effects and can even help in some cases. So who is ready to learn…?" Loki said.

After listening, Uvogin had a big grin on his face.

"That's how things should be! If there was no risk in power like this, I might hesitate!" he said with a laugh.

Nobunaga, next to him, also nodded in agreement.

"It's not too bad. Our lives are generally harder, so the price doesn't mean much." Nobunaga said thoughtfully.

"I am not afraid of death," Machi added with a firm gaze.

Seeing this made Loki smile even wider.
