Chapter 511 ( Yorbian - III )

"He's on the Yorbian continent doing a mission for you?" - Kyōka asked in surprise as she looked at the old president of the [Hunters' Association].

"Yes, there is a somewhat worrying incident, and the best decision I could make, was to tell him to go to supervise things" - replied Netero calmly while pulling his beard - "But leaving that aside, I'm glad to see that you're done with the game that Ging-san created together with his friends."

"It was fun the first week, but then it was monotonous" - Kyōka replied while frowning - "There weren't many exciting encounters, except during the 'battle' against Razor-san"

"I understand what you're trying to say" - said Netero while nodding calmly - "Facing the weak, it's not a fun thing for the strong"

"Exactly" - Kyōka snorted as Menchi and Kyoko rolled their eyes at him.

"Putting that aside, what's Cloud's mission?" - Kyoko asked as she looked at the older man.

"As I said, it's to supervise the work of the group of hunters that has been assigned to the place" - answered Netero seriously as he thought for a few seconds before opening his mouth again - "The problem is that the incident with the explosion of a clandestine laboratory, caused a strange chemical to spread around the place, causing a mutagenic outbreak in all the wildlife in the area, not to mention that the man responsible experimented with hundreds of dangerous animals, turning these specimens, much more dangerous than normal"

"How did they get in on this?" - Menchi asked as she frowned after reading the report because it didn't seem very concise.

"It was because of the very hunters assigned to the site, they detected the anomaly and contacted us" - answered Netero calmly - "After that, I sent a reconnaissance team so we could get more information."

"I understand, I guess now we're the ones who will have to go" - said Menchi, only to frown when she noticed how Netero shook his head - "No?"

"I'm sorry, but it's better if you stay on the sidelines for the time being, after all, we don't know when we might need your help somewhere else" - replied Netero as he shook his head.

Kyōka frowned, but still nodded, after all, they were working as hunters and had to respect the rules.

"I'm sorry for not letting you'll go for the moment, but I honestly have a bad feeling about this whole situation" - Netero said as he turned around and looked out the window - "Something tells me that all this is not as simple as we think, and at the same time my instincts tell me that things should happen this way."

Kyōka and Kyoko, said nothing in response, but inside they were amazed at the old hunter's keen senses, after all, not just anyone could sense the will of the dimension.

"Anyway, for now you can go back home, I'll send for you when the time comes, which is possibly closer than we think" - Netero said while shaking his head.

"OK" - nodded the girls as they silently withdrew.

"What do you think they will do?" - asked Netero as he listened as the door to his office, again opened.

"The human mind is hard to understand, so I couldn't tell you if they will accept your orders" - replied the secretary, who had been listening to everything from outside the room - "No matter how much we understand a person, these always end up surprising us with their decisions"

"True, that's the beauty of human beings, to be able to decide their own destiny among endless possibilities" - said Netero with a huge smile as he looked out the window again, only to show a serious expression - "But this time I'm sure they will accept my orders."

"Motive?" - The secretary asked curiously.

"A simple hunch, but my instincts have never failed me to date" - said Netero while letting out a small laugh.

The secretary said nothing more, he silently withdrew as he thought about his leader's words.

"At least no problems have been detected so far" - Pokkle said with a frown as he touched the ground - "The animals in this area are escaping from something, possibly from that unknown beast."

"The insects are also escaping, although you can see evidence of them being captured" - said Ponzu while frowning.

"That just means that creature hasn't approached this village" - Cloud said calmly as he looked around and started sniffing, only to frown when he detected nothing out of place - "That creature is either intelligent, or its self-preservation instincts are extremely high."

"Everything would be simpler if we knew what we were up against" - said Balda while shaking his head because it was honestly annoying that they were fighting blindly.

"This is a normal thing for a hunter, never knowing what we're up against" - said Cloud while frowning - "We won't always go against an enemy that has already been identified."

"Sorry, it's just annoying" - replied Balda again with embarrassment.

"That aside, I'm starting to see a pattern" - Cloud said as he watched as they had finally reached the village - "Whatever that thing is, it's quite possible that it's either pregnant, or looking to create offspring"

"Why do you say that?" - Pokkle asked as he looked at the blond.

"Behavior" - answered Cloud while remembering what he had read during his stay in this world - "When a creature is about to give birth, it looks for a safe place and enough food to be able to take care of its offspring until they can move on their own, and if we take into account that this thing is alone, then the reason why there are no living beings nearby, is because that thing already took them to its burrow."

"If your reasoning is true, then things are much more complicated than we think" - Ponzu said while frowning - "Because we don't know what kind of effects the mutagen had on that creature's DNA"

"Exactly, worst case scenario, the offspring of that thing, have accelerated growth, increased the overall risk factor of the area" - Cloud said as he started to think - "We'll need more help, possibly from qualified beast hunters, no offense kid."

"No, I understand I'm not the best qualified for a possible unknown plague" - Pokkle replied with a frown.

Cloud nodded when he heard this, at least the boy could think clearly, and not with his pride.

"Back to the point, Pekuba, I want you to contact the [Association] and report to them everything we've discovered, as well as our assumptions while the rest of us take care of checking the place" - Cloud said seriously.

"Hai!" - Pekuba exclaimed as he nodded firmly.

"What kind of creatures do you think it is?" - Pokkle asked as he looked at the others - "Animal, vegetable, insect, a hybrid?"

"I have no idea, but whatever it is, it's not good" - Cloud said as he frowned because his instincts were still telling him to be careful.

* * * * *

"You know your mission, bring me food as soon as possible" - said the giant ant as she looked at the strange and amorphous creatures that were prostrating in front of her - "And I want you to be careful because we are not strong enough yet."

She was still slightly traumatized with the events that led to her escape, that's why she had ordered caution to her "worker ants", after all, she didn't want to gain the attention of other predators at least until her strength had expanded enough.

The strange creatures quickly took off to follow their mistress' orders as she continued to devour all the prey she had accumulated, only to narrow her eyes as she saw that she was still insufficient to meet their needs - "This can't go on like this, I need more nutrients or I won't be able to bring the king into this world!"

The huge ant growled in irritation as it continued to devour everything around it.

The huge ant slowly walked to a corner and continued laying eggs to bring them more prey, when it frowned as it heard how one of its minions had returned with a strange prey.

"What is this?" - The queen asked with a frown as she looked at the strange creature,<, though she quickly put her thoughts aside and picked up the strange prey, which was much smaller than the ones she had gathered - "Where did you find this thing?"

The amorphous creature said nothing, he just looked at his queen as she released a strange pheromone.

"Nearby?" - The ant queen asked as she looked at the prey that had been brought to her, only to take a firm bite and notice how it contained nutrients that could not be compared to anything she had devoured before - "This prey is not only delicious, but it has a high nutritional level! You've done a good job, I want you to bring more of this prey!"
