The Legendary Mission Starts With An Old Friend [Edited]

*TACK TACK TACK TACK*

Rex, still sitting on the tree stump, stared at the approaching helicopter. 'Oh, it's finally here.'

He stood up, waved, making the helicopter come closer and closer to him.

When it almost reached the ground, it hurled tons of snow at Rex, but he didn't mind it.

After landing, he entered the helicopter and was greeted right away by one familiar face.

"Oh... That mission was quicker than I expected, Rex."

Rex wiped the snow off his leather jacket. "Yes, I even had enough time to go skiing, Naiki."

The familiar figure was Naiki, somehow, for some reason he had to stop his mission in the middle of it and was now dressed chaotically.

He wore a white linen shirt with a pitch black vest over it, his pants were also pitch black, but his gloves carried an elegant white tone.

In fact he dressed like a waiter, but this time he wore a thick brown jacket and pants, coupled with a fat beanie that kept his ears nice and warm.

"Shitass, you can just call me Master" he said. "But it would have been nice if you hadn't wiped the snow off in the helicopter."

Rex waved his hand. "It's no big deal, besides, where are we going now."

"We're going to-"

*Beep*

Rex's cell phone vibrated.

"I think Aziel will explain it!"

Rex pressed the accept button and put the phone next to his ear.

"What is it?"

"Oh, you will be flown to the nearest city, there you will hand over the gem to Sanbica, she will eradicate it as already done with the other Artifacts."

"And why the call? I would have done that anyway."

"There is a new important mission, you have to retrieve an important thing from the Dark Continent, for that you have about 1 year to recruit two companions, you will become the leader of this group."

"Hahaha, in a year's time? Don't you think that's a bit much?"

"You will understand when you go through the mission."

"Will this mission be more difficult than this one?"

"It's not to compare, our opponent is the son of Netero, Beyond Netero."

Rex's eyes were wide open. "Beyond...

Beyond is a very dangerous man.... Shouldn't we talk with Netero about this first."

"Netero doesn't want to deal with Beyond, he said it wasn't his business... Nevertheless, Beyond is planning an expedition to the Dark Continent, and it looks like this artifact should help him..."

"Can't I take Neo in my team?"

"I'm sorry, but no one from our organizations, everyone is busy, or will be busy."

"1 year for me to recruit two complete strangers?"

"Surely you have acquaintances outside the organizations, however, as always, I thank you very much for your service, and goodbye, Raul."

The call ended, Rex squeezed the gem strongly with his hand and looked out the window of the helicopter.

'Raul... How come he knows Raul but not Hunter x Hunter?'

He closed his eyes.

|12 years earlier|

Rex and Aziel were still sitting at the table in the bunker, their dialogue continued, and after a long time, Rex asked him a very Important question.

"If you can see the future, then you already know the things I'm going to say....

That means you know some of my secrets, if not all...

What do you know about me?"

"I know many things about you, most of them are useless, but the most important is your real name, Raul."

"Raul", Rex muttered to himself, it was his old name from his previous life, but his name was not as important as the fact that this was an information from his previous life...

If he could transfer information from his old life, to this world... What did he know?!

He felt fear.

"What...

What do you know about Hunter...

Hunter x Hunter?"

Aziel looked at him confused. "What, I didn't hear you."

"Hunter x Hunter! What do you know about that?!"

Aziel had a confused look on his face. "What do I know about what?"

'Can't he hear me?', Thought Rex.

"What do you know about reincarnation or whatever that was?"

Aziel thought for a little moment. "Are you talking about your Hatsu?"

"..."

"..."

'Is he just acting? Is he doing this to appear more trustworthy, or is this the truth...?'

He made a mental note from this information.

Rex shook his head. "Forget it."

✹

After a very long ride, the helicopter finally landed on a skyscraper.

Naiki together with Rex climbed and shortly after Rex looked at the beautiful Night Sky. 'This marvelous night sky... How have I been able to endure those years without sight...? Well, it's been a long time.'

Suddenly, a door opened, and since it was very jammed, it created an unbearable noise that interrupted Rex's euphoric perceptions.

Out of the door came a small woman. She wore a black t-shirt which contained a skull, however a white leather jacket covered most of it.

She looked quite young, and pretty and was only one year older than Rex.

"Hey Rex, come on already! I hate to wait!"

It was Sanbica.

Rex walked over to him and handed him the ancient Gem...

Blood red flames manifested on Syn's hand, which then virtually Erased the crystal from this world forever.

"Your reverse Hatsu always fascinates me to no end...", Rex said.

"Yeah yeah, thanks for that compliment, but aren't you scared about your B-Rank Bounty? We can talk to the V5 and they might just resolve it, don't you think that's a bit counterproductive? I mean, after all, you didn't do anything inhumane to get a Bounty.", Sanbica said.

Edward put his hand on Rex's shoulder. "It's really bad what some people inflict on you Rex, but bear with it...

And Sanbica, I'm against it too, but since Boss meant it, it should be like that, you know?"

"Oh I'm just saying", Sanbica opined.

"Rex, why...", Just as he was about to continue talking to Rex, the latter one just walked to the edge of the roof, sat down and looked over the city.

'B-Rank Bounty... That's just one rank below A-rank, which the Phantom Troupe had...

Why? Corrupt politicians.'

He closed his eyes again. 'I wish for a better world, I wish for people to be treated more fairly.... I wish for the world to be freed from the interests of the already wealthy...

I... I am happy that I can achieve something like this, I am happy that I was reborn into this Hunter x Hunter world... I am happy that I have the power to do this, change things... And I am happy that my services have fulfilled this for the most part...'

Rex took out his phone and typed a few numbers. 'Lobbyism... That's the name the wealthy countries use to end bribery.... But in the end, both, although there are differences, are practically the same... In both cases, large corporations can buy their interests in politics...

Which can occur in most cases in unfavorable laws... Which gives those corporations unbelievable wealth, but makes the people suffer... But if you want to fight it, you'll make so many enemies...'

Rex looked at his cell phone. 'But I am not a nobody... I am a 2-Star Hunter now! And most importantly, I...

I have a good relationship with the V5, the fact that there is a human out there who can seek out nasty artifacts from the Dark Continent... And then try to eliminate them with his followers, goes down pretty well with those nations, which is why they try to protect and support us, even though most of the corrupt politicians are against my actions...'

*Beep*

'Finally he accepted!'

Rex placed the cell phone next to his right ear.

'How's it going...

Illumi."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi.

In this chapter I wanted to introduce you to Syn, and show you the big mission for this arc.

Can you already guess who the next person will be?

Or if Illumi will accept his request?

Anyways, I'm trying to make Rex and his organization flow with the Hunter x Hunter canon, and not to make it too chaotic.

We also have seen what Rex has done with his new life... What his goal is, why he thinks he has been reborn... What he thinks his purpose in life is...

In his previous life he was not the richest person, he lived very poor, had to do many jobs, he hated his environment etc... It is normal to be compassionate with other people who live in similar circumstances... And then help them, if you gain the power to do so.

(And please write at the paragraphs if I made a mistake somewhere!!!)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

//Notice://

I will have to make a small hiatus, you probably noticed it yourself, but the breaks between the chapters are getting bigger...

Why the hiatus?

In one week I will have to take an examination phase, I will have to study for 9 tests, read three books, memorize many words and so on...

So, when can you expect new chapters?

In about 12 days, 7 days intensive studying, 5 days writing the tests.

Wish me good luck!

And I'm very sorry :(
