Chapter 5 - Second X Phase

The sound of a creature moving came from the bushes, and then Gon walked out awkwardly carrying his fishing rod.

"I was worried about you guys, so I turned back to check. I saw you fighting Hisoka and wanted to come out and help, but suddenly i started feeling terror and can't move"

Archer breathed a sigh relief. Fortunately, this guy hadn't stepped in to help; otherwise, he would have had to fight with Hisoka while protecting Gon.

After explaining why he appeared, Gon clenched his fists and said excitedly, "Archer, you're amazing! You actually managed to fight with Hisoka."

Archer shook his head and said, "No that was just a warmup for hisoka, if he got serious he might have killed me."

When Gon heard Archer say this, a look of terror appeared on his face.

"Just now, a terrifying Aura came off Hisoka's body. Is that the special power you mentioned?"

He had been truly frightened just now. To him, the battle between the two had already been incredibly exaggerated, but the moment Hisoka released his Nen, even Gon felt that he was facing his death.

With senses naturally different from ordinary people, he utterly loathed that feeling. At the same time, he felt a spark of curiosity could he learn this special ability too?

Archer instantly guessed the other's thoughts but didn't said anything and after that Gon guided Archer to the Biska Forest Park. This was the venue for the second phase.

As soon as they arrived, the two saw Hisoka. However, since the other party acted as if nothing had happened, Archer didn't take the initiative to provoke him either. Instead, he found Leorio, Kurapika, and Killua.

Leorio and Kurapika were overjoyed to find Archer unharmed, while Killua glanced at Archer with a very complex expression.

In fact, when Archer and Hisoka were fighting earlier, he had also been hiding in the shadows watching. The strength of both exceeded his expectations. Even he had to admit that his chances of winning against these two were not high.

But what truly moved him was the moment Hisoka activated his Nen. At that time, his hair stood on end from fear. He had only seen such a terrifying Aura from his brother Illumi. He had originally intended to help, but he had been frozen on the spot. Thinking back on it now was truly a bit embarrassing.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the group waited quietly for the second phase of the exam to begin. Before long, Biska forest park doors in front of them opened, Candidates heard sound and walked inside and saw 2 people.

The woman looked to be about 20 years old, with pink hair and wearing a mesh t-shirt outfit that fully displayed her tall figure to everyone.

The other man had an exceptionally rugged appearance, standing at least three meters tall. He was bloated and obese, but his face looked very honest and simple.

The two walked out of the door one after the other. Then the big man looked at the crowd and said, "We are the Examiners for the second phase of the Hunter Exam. My name is Buhara, a Gourmet Hunter. The one beside me is Menchi, also a Gourmet Hunter."

Hearing that the Examiners for this phase were Gourmet Hunters, many candidates showed expressions of disdain.

In their view, a Gourmet Hunter was no different from a chef. To become a Hunter and still want to be a cook with such meager ambitions, they deserved to be looked down upon.

Finding the contempt on everyone's faces, Buhara didn't care much, but Menchi's face beside him instantly darkened.

Her status as a Gourmet Hunter had always been her pride. Since these people dared to mock her identity as a Gourmet Hunter, she had already decided to give these candidates a proper lesson.

"Buhara, you conduct your test first. I'll give my assignment once yours is over." After saying that, she moved a sofa, crossed her legs, and lay on it, sulking.

Buhara felt a bit helpless seeing this; it seemed Menchi was throwing a tantrum again.

He announced his test to the crowd, which was to cook a pig for him. As long as he was satisfied with the taste, they would pass his test.

Hearing this, everyone immediately went into action. They had seen many wild boars on the way here, so finding them wouldn't be very difficult.

Initially, the candidates thought this test wasn't difficult at all—just catching a wild boar and roasting it. With their strength, they could easily accomplish it.

Little did they know that the wild boars in this forest were very hard to deal with. Each had thick skin and tough flesh, with high speed and attack power. Many people were sent flying and seriously injured by the boars' charges upon first contact.

While everyone was scratching their heads over how to deal with the wild boars, Tian Ming aimed at his target and then punched the pig on his head.

After taking Archer punch the pig lost its life. After that he carried it inside Biska forest park. and cooked similar to how other candidates cook, he doesn't know how to cook so could only copy how others cook their pig.

He knew this exam was mainly to test if the candidates could defeat the wild boars; as for the taste, Buhara didn't really care.

After cooking it he place it in front of Buhara. Buhara's mouth watered at the sight, and he ate it very fast and finished it under 1 minute

After finishing the wild boar, Buhara gave Archer a thumbs up and with a smile said, "You've passed!"

After him, many people brought their works to Buhara one after another. These people's roasted wild boars were basically just like Archer one, haphazardly roasted, and some were even served half-raw. Buhara rejected no one and threw them all into his mouth. Consequently, without exception, all these people passed.

Before long, dozens of candidates had passed the test. Everyone clicked their tongues in amazement as they watched Buhara, who had eaten dozens of wild boars without his expression changing.

As expected of a Gourmet Hunter, this appetite could no longer be described simply human.

Archer knew this probably had to do with Buhara Nen Ability, and it was very likely that the Nen Ability had Vows and Restrictions added to it. The fact that the other party accepted the low-quality 'delicacies' they made without refusal was likely part of that Nen Restriction.

Come to think of it, if I awaken a Nen Ability, what category would it be?

With an existence as full of leadership qualities as mine, it has to be a Specialist, right?. Like in those fanfictions where main character will be always specialist.
