Hunter Exam III

Chapter 35: Hunter Exam III

........

A smirk appeared on his face, 'Though the most important thing is the wish I have to make to Nanika, this one is instrumental to my plans. But seeing how far I've planned and how many backup plans I planned is just too satisfying, I wonder how satisfied I will feel when my plans come to fruition,'

.....

The phase ended up with a war between the applicants while also keeping their eyes on all the creatures trying to hunt them.

Especially since Yasuo took quite a lot of the fruits leaving enough for just thirty-five applicants which made the phase much more intense.

Yasuo could be seen sitting comfortably on a tree branch, in front of him hovering in the air is a small headless snake engulfed in fire.

The fire only focused on the snake grilling it, then from the sheaths on his belt, two dark daggers flew out cutting the snake into small edible pieces. He ate slowly as they flew to his mouth while keeping his eyes closed.

This is part of Yasuo's training. If he cooked anything, he'll use the black daggers to make the food poisoned, and considering that The dark daggers poison has a substantial effect even on him which means he has an always available dose of poison.

Of course, he uses just enough to not affect him too much until his body adapted to this level of poison, and while he can get rid of the poison using his amplification domain, he still wants to grow resistance just in case.

"Someone's here and he has the fruits hehe.." Suddenly a dark-haired man yelled to his comrades.

"Hehe, making a fire in this place is a mistake kid, now give us the fruits and we'll let you live." Another man next to him said while the other one stayed silent.

"Sigh, it's good to let my whims guide me sometimes as long as it's safe..." Yasuo sighed in satisfaction as he uttered those strange yet calm words.

One of the daggers disappeared from its sheath only to appear in the sheath in the blink of an eye.

With that, the three applicants fell though what could be noticed is just a small wound on each of them, the skin around the wounds turned completely dark as they fell in the span of a second.

The daggers are easy to control and they're extremely fatal so the opponent will have to keep up with fighting Yasuo while also keeping an eye on the daggers being controlled.

And they'll be fatal to Nen-users if he used 'Shu' shrouding them in his aura and with his experience in emission allowing his aura to stay on them even while controlling them at long distances.

'Hmm, I'm kinda evil aren't I? well, whatever.'

"Time to go back." He then disappeared into the horizon flying back.

Once he was a few miles away he noticed an airship next to the base, he flew down then walked the rest of the way.

The recipient was standing there waiting for the applicants to deliver the requirement so once he reached her, he handed her the bag.

"Can I see your badge number please?" Yasuo handed her the badge, and after she took a look at it, she gave it back saying, "Follow me please."

She led him to the airship to the Staterooms section, "This is your room, we'll inform you when the next phase starts. Also, the cafeteria is in the third section. Please let us know if you need anything else."

'I'll continue to expand my domain's size until the next phase' Thought Yasuo as he sat down closing his eyes.

.....

Yasuo could be seen walking through a certain hallway in the airship, the receptionist was walking ahead of him and seems to be leading him somewhere.

The receptionist opened the door to a certain room saying, "This way please," After Yasuo entered the room, the receptionist closed the door.

In front of him is what appeared to be a helpless old man, He has a ponytail, a thick beard, and stretched earlobes with two piercings in both ears.

Isaac Netero the 12th Chairman of the Hunter Association and the Head of the Exam Commission. In his youth, he was extolled as the most powerful Nen user in the world, and retained dreadful strength even in his old age.

"Hoohoo Yasuo Zoldyck, take a seat," Said Netero in a mischievous yet jovial tone.

Yasuo took a seat with a smile on his face, "Hi, Grandfather talks a lot about you."

"And he told me a lot about you. So why do you want to be a hunter?" Questioned Netero with his eyes gleaming in a bright light while sizing up the young Zoldyck before him.

"I think you know but I'll tell you anyway. A hunter license will provide me with a lot of benefits that will help my research especially with things that I wouldn't be able to get otherwise." Answered Yasuo casually.

Netero seemed thoughtful as he observed Yasuo noting how monstrous the kid is, 'Either he has a Hatsu that has something to do with concealment or he is just that strong or both.

I can't tell exactly how strong he is especially since he is in the state of Zetsu, does his Hatsu have something to do with being in this state? Well, he is interesting perhaps we'll have a spar later when he grows more.'

"Which type of hunter do you want to be?" Asked Netero after coming back from his wandering thoughts and anticipation.

While Netero was observing Yasuo, the latter was also observing him, 'Hmm well I obviously know how strong he is, and I can tell he is stronger than father from the air around him but I can't tell exactly by how much,'

While Yasuo knows how strong Netero is from the story, he still focused his senses on him trying to estimate it himself though that didn't get him an accurate result.

"I want to be a research hunter, I'm basically interested in researching anything I find interesting in any field so only this kind of category suits me." Answered Yasuo while still observing Netero with his domain.

"Hmmm ok, anyway I called you here for a reason, here..." While saying this, Netero handed Yasuo a hunter's license.

"Once I knew you're taking the exam, I had this license prepared for you and planned to give it to you at the end of the exam, but it's better to do so now as to stop you from ruining the next phase as you did to the last one,"

Explained Netero once he saw the Questioning look Yasuo gave him.

Yasuo nodded taking the card from him, skipping what will obviously be a tasteless phase and just a waste of time is always welcomed.

"Since you like to research things, if you find anything interesting you can upload it to the Hunters Traven, If it's remarkable enough then you can easily become a 1-star hunter granting you more benefits and access to more information."

Hunters' Tavern is the top of the line in info content and reliability. On it can be found precious loot unimaginable on other sites. To access the website one needs the URL and a Hunter License.

.....

As Yasuo moved through the airship heading to the exit, someone familiar entered his domain.

'Tonpa? he not only got out alive but he also passed the phase, well this is a mystery' Thought Yasuo as he disappeared as if merging with the void, completely undetectable.

He flew to the closest city and went directly to a cyberspace where he typed the hunter's Traven's URL.

He swiped his card on the magnetic card reader hardware once the site required it.

A graphic animation starts, showing a tavern with old saloon-looking aspects mixed with the elements of a modern bar.

The functional interface of the main page itself consists of graphic elements that serve as links to the site's sections, which are browsable through "point and click" actions.

He directly brought from the Hunter Website Bartender every information available on the ancient ruins and he tried finding anything about the mysterious ruins though none came up.

He looked to be in deep thought, 'Hmm, it's either not available or I need a higher rank to access it.

Once I go back home I'll upload some minuscule research results I got, they should be enough to make me a 1-star hunter but for now, I'll explore every known interesting ruin.'
