—————————————————
I have understood something critical for my "Gamer" system. It qualifies 'strength' in a different way than most people. I guess my subconscious thoughts on strength must have affected it too. I have noticed that there are different criteria about strength and how much Exp I get. For example, the more intelligent a creature the more Exp I get from it. Also the more potential, unknown DNA, good genetics etc, the more Exp they give. I guess that Exp given isn't quantifiable just by the strength of my opponent.
But then again… I guess that even though I used my love for games to create this Hatsu, other traits of my personality leaked through during the creation.
Anyway I have already killed thousands of people in this city after activating their aura nodes and the residents, I need to get out of here soon, people have started noticing that thousands of them are gone. They don't care since almost everyone here is a criminal but if tens of thousands of people come after me with guns and grenades… I wouldn't be sure I will survive…
Also my talent has started to truly show it's strength, my Aura has been rising continuously and I am easily mastering Advanced Nen techniques, this is amazing... using my talent. I even mastered knife fighting to a high level just in case, I can do a lot of tricks with knives that no one could even imagine… honestly having this type of high talent is… SO AMAZING…
I then turn my tablet back into my Nen and go outside of the shower.
When I am outside I put on a tracksuit and towards the kitchen once I am there... I see a young girl around eleven years old, she has short black hair and black emotionless eyes…
I found her sleeping on the sidewalk of one of the roads, she was wearing rags and I didn't really care in the beginning. After all it's just another homeless kid on this sh*t city, but like usual I had my HATSU active, GAMERS GLASSES and saw that her Aura was bigger than average. So out of curiosity I secretly took a needle and drank some a drop of her blood to determine her talent with the help of my GAMERS GLASSES.
It was around… lvl 9 talent in NEN… that was surprising to me… that amount of talent is only seen one in a million so I immediately took her in and have been teaching her NEN, in here secretly. I don't let her know of my activities in this city and just tell her that I am here to help people. Also she didn't have a name so I gave her one, I named her Mikasa from an anime from my last life. I am not good with names so I chose that one...
Mikasa was abandoned by her parents at the age of six years old and survived until the age of twelve during which I found her she used to eat from garbage cans. That is also the reason she looks more like a six years old than a twelve year old kid… she was malnourished for quite some time.
...
I then cook some scrambled eggs and put them on the table… and Mikasa immediately comes and sits down and even though she has an emotionless look in her eyes I know that she is happy. She just can't express her feelings, plus with my level of talent I am already a five star chef without even trying that hard to become a better cook. As expected if one in a million talent as a chef.
When I put the food in front of her I notice that she is holding her favourite toy, a brown plushie with a wolf's head and human looking body, wearing casual clothes. It was the first toy I gave her, she likes it like no other, when I gave her that toy she actually cried…
When I see her toy I tell her…
"I told you Mikasa put the toy away when you eat."
She looks conflicted for a second but then she says in her usual monotone voice.
"Yes Sensei."
Then she starts eating…
….
After ten days since then, I hold Mikasa's hand while we just walk outside of the city, without anyone even stopping us. When we are about a hundred meters away from the city…
An airship descends from the sky and like usual it throws some rope stairs… I just pick up Mikasa with one hand and started climbing the rope stairs.
….
When I arrive at the top and enter the Airship. I see that it was the usual one that I take. I then take Mikasa towards the training room and I said to her in an encouraging voice.
"Go and practice REN until you can hold it as long as you can after that rest and when you seem ready try again. If you are hungry just…"
I point towards a phone on the corner of the room.
"...ask on that phone and someone will come to bring you food. Also if you get too tired or sleepy you can also ask from the phone to bring you to a room."
Then I just pat her head and while smiling I tell her.
"I will go and talk to the captain about some procedures."
She just nods and says with her monotone voice.
"Yes sensei."
And then she uses REN… her Aura bursts out and she enters into deep concentration.
…
After that I go towards the Captain's Cabin and when I enter I see the captain in there with a cigarette in his mouth. He has a full beard now… when I enter he turns around and says.
"How can I help you sir Jax."
I just smile lightly and say to him in a calm voice.
"Sorry for bothering you Captain. I just wanted to say that my next destination is… Heavens Arena."
He is about to say something but I act like I don't notice and close the door and go outside. He was probably going to say the cost and time of the trip, I don't need to worry about that. After all I have enough money and I can already guess the price range. And as usual I go towards the bathrooms, and I go towards a mirror and summon my NEN unlike half a month ago my NEN comes out smoothly, in an almost elegant way as I summon my tablet…
Once it appears on my hand I immediately click on the stats app and… FINALLY… I CAN'T WAIT TO SPEND THIS EXP…

AUTHOR NOTE
We see that the MC has advanced more towards the mastery of NEN, he now has a student, why did he take Mikasa in…. well he didn't just select her randomly. Obviously he selected her for her talent, but why should he care for her just because she is talented… or is there more to it than it seems (obviously there is). Find out in the next chapter of… Hunter X Hunter: A Selfish Wish.
P.S: As a side note... MC considers humans to be the 'strongest' creatures in the world... Yeah... that also has an effect on Exp. The system isn't as simple as just the <Gamer> and that the physically stronger the creature the more Exp he gets. After all, the <Gamer> in itself is just a condition that fuels the MC's extreme manipulation to take effect.
