After annihilating the Phantom Troupe, Perception has given Moses ten kinds of rewards at once.
Moses had thought that the reward for forming a bond with Kurapika was already included among them.
But to his surprise, there was yet another reward.
Emperor Time...
This was the Specialization-Type Nen Ability Kurapika had developed in the original work.
Its effect allowed 100% utilization of all Nen Categories, but at the cost of one hour of life for every second the ability is used.
However, due to Moses's presence in this world, Kurapika did not develop this life-draining ability to deal with the Phantom Troupe like in the original work.
And unsurprisingly, the Phantom Troupe was also destroyed by their joint efforts.
As a result, this Specialization-Type Nen Ability, that was destined to disappear due to the butterfly effect, was actually transferred to Moses in the form of a reward.
Even if it was a one-time, life-consuming trump card, the effect of 100% utilization of all Nen Categories alone made the price worthwhile.
'If I had the Emperor Time before the battle with the Phantom Troupe, then...'
Moses imagined the scene where he used up a Nen Exorcism chance to break Chrollo's carefully prepared Nen Space plan, then using both the Netero Mask and Emperor Time simultaneously.
With a 100% boost in all Nen categories, the comprehensive destructive power of 100-Type Guanyin will definitely exceed that of the original user, Netero, and there is a high probability that Moses can kill all members of the Phantom Troupe in seconds.
'What a beautiful scene that would've been...'
Moses shook his head slightly to stop this meaningless fantasy.
Sure, instantly killing the Troupe with that combo would have felt incredible, but it would definitely not be possible to get too many rewards from Perception.
Less struggle meant fewer rewards...
That principle of Perception had always been consistent.
Moses did not stay in the room for long. He first told Kurapika about the possibility of Scarlet Eyes at this year's Yorknew City Auction, and then left the room, giving Kurapika a quiet environment.
…
Since he needed to meet the 'ferryman' at Sakara Port on the eastern coast of the Yorbian Continent, Moses and Biscuit departed Glover City the next day by airship.
Before that, Moses accompanied Pyon, Sambika and others to play in Glover City for half a day, which can be considered a small gesture of hospitality.
As for Shizuku, Menchi and the others, they were thrown directly into the Heavens Arena by Moses.
After all, Moses and Biscuit are going to enter Greed Island by smuggling, and it would be troublesome if there were too many people, so Moses didn't think of bringing Shizuku and Menchi with him from the beginning.
Besides, letting them stay in the Heavems Arena might even provide some help to Killua and Gon in improving their Nen Techniques.
Moses knew that Killua and Gon were saving money to get the game slot of Greed Island, but he did not take the initiative to disclose the relevant information.
In his opinion, no matter how much money Killua and Gon saved in the past few months, they would not be able to snatch a game console from the wealthy Battera.
Their final outcome, without a doubt, were to be hired by Battera and then be able to enter the Greed Island.
So, for Killua and Gon now, it would be better to work hard to become stronger instead of working hard to save money.
…
High above the clouds, the airship glided smoothly.
Biscuit looked at Moses, who was resting with his eyes closed, and asked curiously: "Moses, how did you 'convince' that battle-crazed maniac?"
"Hmm? You mean Hisoka?"
"Yes, anyone with a discerning eye can see that you are in his eyes and heart."
Biscuit's eyes curved slightly as she lowered the Dandy magazine in her hand, and some scenes that are not suitable for children emerged in her mind.
Moses glanced at the magazine in Biscuit's hand and sighed, "Could you not say it like that? And if possible, please don't make up some random nonsense in your mind."
"No can do!"
Biscuit put the Dandy magazine on her thighs, then clasped her hands together, tilted her head slightly as stars sparkled in her eyes: "What can I say? I'm just an adorable girl with zero resistance to stuff like this!"
"…"
The corners of Moses's mouth twitched a few times.
'There was no talking sense into her.'
Moses shook his head and chose to keep his mouth shut.
However, after Biscuit finished sighing, she continued to ask: "You haven't answered my question yet."
"It wasn't really persuasion."
Moses rested his chin on his hand, looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and said calmly: "I just agreed to his request to fight, but the time is set for three months later."
"Three months?"
Biscuit's eyes gradually became strange.
She felt that the duration of this battle is a bit too long, and there's going to be a chance of cancellation.
"It might make Hisoka sad if he heard this, but I really don't have much interest in him right now. If anything..."
As Moses said this, he turned around and looked at Biscuit, who was sitting next to him, and said seriously: "I actually want to fight with you, Big Sis, the kind where you try your best."
"Wow, this guy is totally my type. I hope next month's issue features him."
Biscuit lowered her head and flipped through her magazine, letting out bursts of exclamations mixed with excitement, as if she didn't hear what Moses had just said.
Seeing that Biscuit ignored his words in this way, Moses couldn't help but shake his head with a chuckle.
With his current strength, dealing with Biscuit in her loli form was completely effortless.
What he really wanted was to fight her in her muscular form.
Unfortunately, this Auntie clearly wasn't willing.
'What a pity...'
Moses felt a hint of regret.
…
A few days later.
The airship landed in the city closest to the Sakara Port.
After that, Moses and Biscuit switched to a car and arrived at Sakala Port within the agreed time limit.
There is still one day left until the agreed meeting time, but Morel is already waiting here.
The moment he saw Moses and Biscuit appear, Morel immediately got off the boat and strode over with large steps.
"Haha, I watched that 'match, it was really amazing."
Morel came closer and gave Moses a thumbs up, not hiding the admiration on his face.
He has always been straightforward and bold. He never hid his dislike for certain people, nor did he hold back his respect for those he deemed worthy.
The mere fact that Moses had led the charge in wiping out the Phantom Troupe is enough to earn Morel's respect.
In response to Morel's praise, Moses just smiled and did not engage in that topic. Instead, he took a moment to size up Moses's appearance.
He looked much like Moses remembered… solidly built, shoulder-length white hair parted down the middle, a pair of small black sunglasses, a snuff-bottle-shaped nose, a broad forehead and jaw, and skin weathered into a bronze hue typical of seafaring men.
Noticing that Moses didn't want to mention the topic of destroying the Phantom Troupe, Morel simply skipped it. After a brief round of introductions, he led Moses and Biscuit aboard his ship.
