[1 month later...]
The sun shone down through the thick and black smoke over Meteor City. Nothing has changed during the month; the trash has just increased, and the smell has worsened.
The people still lived day by day on food found in trash or stolen from someone else. Fights were the norm, and every day at least 10 people died in the area where Shizuku lived.
The meagre light shone into Shizuku's house, and Breck, sleeping on the floor, suddenly opened his eyes. His body twisted as he pushed himself up, dodging a fair palm.
Boom!
Shizuku looked at Breck with surprise, her palm hitting the floor with such force that it created a small crack in the concrete. Breck wiped his forehead and smirked.
His eyes met Shizuku's with a challenging light. After a whole month of training with Shizuku, Breck managed to significantly increase his physical strength.
"You surprised me. In a month, you reached half my strength without using Nen. Another month, and you might become as strong as me physically."
Shizuku said while turning to her bed. She placed her glasses on her nose, and Breck stretched his joints, letting out a satisfied sigh as his joints popped.
"So, ready to teach me Nen?" Breck asked with a glint in his eyes. He could not help but tremble in excitement as he looked at Shizuku with desire.
To Breck, Nen was not just a power that he could use and train to become stronger and better; it was a gift that he could harness and refine. Nen was the key that would allow Breck to set foot on the dark continent.
It could give him the power he needed to search and look around the dark continent. And who knows? He could gain some nitro rice and live forever from eating the nitro rice.
Not only that, but even the diseases on that continent are supernatural. The zobae allowed someone to be immortal and not need food or anything as long as they eat their flesh.
The disease also allows the person to regenerate their body tissue at an alarmingly fast pace. Giving the person who caught the disease the ability to regenerate.
Like what kind of disease is that?
And that's only the diseases and what the world already has discovered in the dark continent. Imagine the various fruits, animals and even the different species.
The dark continent had to be 1000 times as large as our planet Earth. Since the world of Hunter x Hunter and the continents are merely a giant lake in the middle of the Dark Continent.
Compare the Mobius lake to a massive lake on Earth. That's the world of Hunter x Hunter and the Dark Continent. Something like that intrigues Breck like no other.
Hearing Breck's question got Shizuku thinking for a little bit before she shook her head. There is still something they must do before she awakens his nen.
"Not today. You will come and help me steal something precious today. If you succeed and survive, then I will teach you," Shizuku said, and Breck's shoulders slumped in defeat.
A moan of disappointment and acceptance left Breck's mouth, and the corner of Shizuku's mouth turned up into a tiny smile. She couldn't help but smile.
After a month of living together and teaching and training, Breck, Shizuku, and Breck became closer from strangers to friends. That's because of their personality.
"Fine, as you wish, my queen." Breck casually bent down and picked his clothes up from the inflatable mattress on the concrete floor. Shizuku still won't let him sleep with her on the bed.
Stingy women, it's not like he would do anything with her.
Putting on his newly owned, black and tight t-shirt that he stole from a guy after beating him to death. He also got new cargo green pants that he managed to take from a guy.
The black shirt fit his upper body like a second layer of skin, similar to the one Toji wore in JJK. He tucked the ends into his green cargo pants and tightened the waist with a belt.
Breck also took a pair of military boots off a dead body that was dumped into Meteor City from the real world. Breck could not express how happy he was to finally wear good clothes.
Shizuku watched this without shame as her eyes roamed over Breck's body as he changed. She did not hide her interest at all from Breck, and Breck didn't mind at all.
"Follow me," Shizuku said as she exited the house, and Breck followed after her, snatching a military knife from his mattress as he followed after her.
The two walked until they left the village. The trash heaps around them turned higher and higher until the two walked past them, reaching another part of Meteor City.
This part of Meteor City looked like it was made for the "Rich" part of the city, or people who got a few hundred Jenny in their pockets and can buy a can of food for the day.
"Our target is a newly created Mafia group that came from the outside world into Meteor City," Shizuku asked with narrowed eyebrows, showing a hint of dissatisfaction.
Meteor City has an unspoken rule that everyone follows. In Meteor City, as long as you are a native, kill, loot or do anything, it won't be pursued by those not involved.
But if anyone from outside Meteor City comes and creates trouble for the residents of Meteor City. Then they should be ready to face the wrath of the entire city.
Breck raised an eyebrow as the corner of his lips slowly turned into a malicious grin. His white teeth, thanks to Shizuku sharing her brush with him, gleamed under the sunlight as his killing intent rolled from him.
"Oh, I can't wait to feel sensations of cracking skulls and breaking spirits and bones again." Shizuku looked at Breck and shrugged. She can't judge him.
She has done jobs that required her to kill, mutilate and maim people. So even though Shizuku has a cute appearance, she is all but cute in her soul.
"Me too," Shizuku said, her eyes glinting with determination. The Mafia and Shizuku do not have a personal grudge or hatred with each other.
They invade Meteor City in an attempt to take over a luxurious area. That's something that the Phantom Troupe, Shizuku, and its residents can not allow.
Hence, for her handsome pay for the mission of killing and decimating the Mafia group.
The two bloodthirsty men soon arrived near a mansion in the heart of the area. There were guards wearing suits and holding guns in their hands surrounding the mansion.
"Huh? Who the hell are you two?!" The guards at the front screamed while pointing their guns at Shizuku and Breck.
