Chapter 96 Why bother just kill it

The halfway of the first round of The Hunter Exam ended with so many participants being left behind. Only those who had decent stamina would have a chance to participate in the second half.

Now everyone was in a misty forest.

Satotz looked back at everyone. They had run inside the dark tunnel for more than four hours. Many participants were exhausted and sat on the floor trying to catch their breath.

Satotz didn't pay attention to those who sat on the ground but to those who were not.

They didn't even break a sweat. and there was someone who even carried a beautiful woman and run all the way.

'Well, Hunter Exam this year is full of interesting people

Satotz let the participants catch their breath a little before he explained about this misty forest.

And as he was explaining about the forest. Someone appeared with a beaten appearance. He shouted to everyone.

"D-Don't fall for it. He's lying to you all. He's an imposter. He's not the examiner. I'm the real examiner!"

Everyone hearing him then looked at each other, they were no fools. There was something suspicious here.

They didn't believe the man.

"Look at this if you don't believe me!"

The man when he saw that no one believed him he then showed everyone the body of someone who looked almost like Satotz but the body had some inhuman parts like a monkey with pink fur.

All the examinees started to get confused. They looked at Satotz and wanted him to tell them something but Satotz kept quiet.

He wanted to know what the examinees would do in this kind of situation.

And when the examinees started to get suspicious of Satotz the man explained about The Man-Faced Ape.

Almost everyone except a few started to believe him. and when they were about to confront Satotz about it.

Someone spoke among the crowd, stopping them from doing it.

"Then you could also be the man-faced ape who pretends to be the examiner too. Why should I believe you then? I don't think a hunter examiner would be weak and get beaten that badly by a mere ape."

The one who spoke was of course Sullivan.

Gon also nodded his head. His nose twitched a bit before speaking.

"Yes. I also think the same and why do you smell the same as him?"

The man hearing Sullivan and Gon said that his expression wasn't good. He didn't think someone would point out the obvious. and smell him from that far?

"Don't underestimate it kids. You don't know what it is capable of. If you don't believe me then It's your choice but don't drag everyone down with you! and why do I smell like them because I fought with them!"

"Are you serious? You fought with them so you smell like them. Are you sure you didn't do something else with them? Eww just thinking about it made me want to puke."

Hermione who was standing beside him couldn't help but hit Sullivan arm softly.

"Sol. Don't speak like that"

"Oh. Sorry Sis."

Everyone now swayed again.

They looked at the man who was now very angry. and when he was about to say something else.

A card flying and stuck on his forehead. killing him in an instant.

The man-faced ape that pretended to be dead when it saw the man was killed. It was scared and ran away as fast as it could. but It was killed the same way as the man.

It was killed by a flying card thrown by a beautiful jester.

After the kill the beautiful jester looked at Sullivan. She licked her lip before speaking with him.

"Why bother? just kill it and be done with it. and if you don't know how I can always teach you, Do you want to play card games with me?"

Everyone's jaws dropped. She was just casually killing the imposter and then flirting with a young man.

It was strange even by the hunter standard.

Sullivan, who was about to talk back, was stopped by hermione.

"No. He doesn't need it. and If he wants to learn it. I will teach him myself."

Hermione showed a deck of cards in her hand. No one knew why the hell she had it.

She would not let her be near him even a second. She was too dangerous.

Hisoka was surprised a minute there before she shrugged and said with a teasing smile.

"Party pooper. Well I can always join in the fun."

"..."

The two were now in a stare down contest.

All the examinees and Satotz sweat a bit.

'How can It become like this? Wasn't it about to get serious earlier? Well just forget about it and move on.'
