Chapter 30: The Passing Of Years

.......

The Hunter × Hunter world is composed of the ocean and the 6 continents which look similar to those of Yasuo's past world but have different locations.

There are 250 countries in the world and only two continents are known In the story by name so far: the Yorbian and Azian continents. In reality, the "ocean" where these continents are is a great lake in the Dark Continent called Lake Mobius.

The continent where the Zoldyck family resides is named the Anrika continent while the one where the hunter selection committee hotel was shown in the story is named Konsiya.

The one the federation of Ochima inhabits is named united Urisha while the last and the smallest is called the Auciontica continent.

In the Konsiya continent, somewhere in the capital of the Kukan'yu kingdom. High buildings could be seen all around as the sound of rain masked any sound that could be heard.

In such heavy rain in the dark of the night, Yasuo could be seen walking at the edge of a specific roof, he kept walking for a while then he stopped and started falling down the building or so it seems.

He started walking down the building horizontally as if gravity has no effect on him and rain seemed to avoid him, keeping him completely untouched though his steps seem quite long as with every step he passes more than 7 meters.

As he almost reached the ground, his extremely slow heartbeats started getting slower and slower until they completely disappeared as his presence lowered even more.

His presence was so low people would find it hard to detect him even when he's walking among them, akin to a shadow in the middle of the night.

His Nen surrounding him in the state of 'Ten' became transparent making his presence even harder to detect as he entered the state of 'In'.

As he reached the ground, he just continued to walk casually as no one was able to see him or sense him even with the low amount of people around.

He continued to walk for a while as three people about few meters from him seemed to be passing by, close to him while keeping enough distance.

An old white-haired man in the middle with two of what could be presumed to be bodyguards surrounding him from each side though they seem to be keeping a little distance behind him protecting his back.

Yasuo continued walking past them as if paying them no heed, he brought a special cell phone from his pocket then called a specific number, this is the Zoldyck's personal transmitter.

"Mission completed, transfer the money to my personal account." That's all he said before closing the phone.

By this time....5 seconds have passed since passing by them.....and with it, the old man that passed far behind him disappeared leaving no trace whatsoever, and no purple lines ever appeared on the target's body.

This is the effect of using 'In' which renders aura imperceptible, effectively concealing it, and the only way for someone to see it would be by using 'Gyo'.

While Yasuo can easily just kill him from far away using any weapon or using emission, he still prefers to make sure.

And making the target disappear completely is perfect, after all, there are Nen-users whose aura remained even after their death and while the target this time isn't a Nen-user, there is always a chance.

The most important reason though is all kinds of abilities in this world so what if there is an ability that makes use of a dead body to curse the killer?

Yasuo let out a sigh, 'I'm much more paranoid than I thought...' Though a tranquil smile came back to his face as he took the train heading to the airships station...

....

It's been about three years since Yasuo came back from heavens arena making him 14 years old.

He took several missions in the first few months providing him with enough funds to create a special lab and he continued to take a few missions from time to time.

Within the property of the Zoldyck family, a little bit far from the main mansion, two new structures could be seen close to each other, a small but elegant cottage and a large plain metallic structure right next to it.

Yasuo could be seen sauntering into the small cottage. he made himself a coffee after taking launch then sat in front of a portable computer where he did some of his research.

He then noticed an email from the hunter's association informing him about the location of the hunter's exam this year as a bright smile surfaced on his face.

What Yasuo wanted is the Hunter license which is incredibly useful, A Hunter License is a type of card given exclusively to Hunters after they pass the Hunter Exam which proves the status of the owner and has multiple benefits.

It provides free access to most of the public services and permission to go almost anywhere in the world without a visa.

It also grants the ability to kill without facing major legal consequences, although there are exceptions.

A Hunter License also grants access to guarded information as well as being an easy way to get jobs. Furthermore, there are collectors willing to buy it for a fortune that would sustain a Hunter's family for generations.

'Hmm, the 277th hunter exam, there is still about a month until the appointment so I have plenty of time.

Also, Killua was born two years ago and there didn't seem to be any noticeable change though him not being born because of my existence was within the realm of possibilities.

Also, Alluka was born by the end of the last year and she seems normal, for now... Anyway, I should see if the next dose is ready.' Yasuo thought to himself, then stood up with the metallic structure as his destination.

He entered the building after typing the password allowing him to enter, what appeared before him is an extremely large room.

There seem to be several large work tables with a variety of tools on them, this includes microscopes; slides; test tubes; Petri dishes; growth mediums, both solid and liquid; inoculation loops; pipettes and tips; incubators; autoclaves, and laminar flow hoods.

At the other side of the room, various glass and metallic cages could be seen with different animals in them from small insects to weird-looking animals though all of them seem to be asleep or more like drugged.

There also seem to be all kinds of plants planted in a specialized environment suited for them.

He ignored everything else heading to a specific work table where a few test tubes with a yellow liquid were positioned on a heater that seems to be keeping the mixture at a specific temperature.

He took that specific tube then directly drank it, this is a mixture Yasuo made that accelerates body development especially strengthening bone density. Yasuo did a lot of research on herbs and animals from this world for the last couple of years.

He brought all kinds of creatures and plants that didn't exist in his past world, and by mixing different substances and testing them on different animals, observing the results lead him to discover a few elixirs with different uses though nothing revolutionary as of yet.

Of course, he had to start from somewhere and the Zoldyck family happened to have several recipes.

They used to mix them with the food or give us some potions to drink which helped a lot in our development, he used them as a foundation then improved on them.

And considering all the bizarre creatures and plants in this world, then there is bound to be some with fascinating effects, effects that'd be deemed to be mystical in his previous world.

Suddenly a beautiful-looking silver butterfly flew around until it stabilized on Yasuo's shoulder.

This is one of the rarest butterflies in the world, the Palaz butterfly with a relatively high lifespan of 5 years.

It's capable of producing and releasing a transparent powder capable of paralyzing a grown adult in under a minute.

A smile surfaced on Yasuo's face, "come here little butterfly.." he then brought his left hand up as the butterfly flew stabilizing on it.

Yasuo brought his right hand close to the butterfly, then "Amplify..".
