"Stop!"
A daily shout.
Kevin was lying on the ground again.
But this time, Yun Gu was also sitting cross-legged on the ground, panting, recovering his strength.
More than two months had passed since Bisky's last lesson. All told, they had been here for three months.
Bisky would bring over necessary daily necessities.
But even so, Kevin and Yun Gu now looked like savages.
"You've finally made some progress," Yun Gu said, panting.
The progress here didn't refer to the timing of calling 'stop,' but to Kevin's combat skills during the fight.
As for the duration of the combat, it was increasing steadily with Kevin's growing Nen.
Yun Gu had also learned various Nen Ability application techniques during this period and had mastered them proficiently.
Of course, compared to Kevin's innate, effortless control, he was still far behind.
"Why isn't Master back yet?" Kevin asked, lying on the ground.
He needed the Nen Ability called [Miss Cookie], which was Bisky's Nen Ability; without it, the hellish training later would kill him.
Previously, Bisky would come once a day, but as time went on, the interval had become once every two or three days, mostly just to deliver some daily necessities.
"Missing your master?"
Bisky arrived right on cue.
"It's really hard to get used to hearing a beautiful young girl who looks much younger than me call herself 'master'," Kevin grumbled.
Before, Bisky used to call herself things like 'beautiful young princess.'
"Really?"
Bisky's eyes widened, sparkling, and her expression showed she was extremely pleased.
"You can call me Sister Bisky."
Bisky clasped her hands together at her chest, looking like a shy young girl.
Yun Gu shook his head seriously: "No, that would be too disrespectful."
Bisky's face immediately fell, and she flicked her hand.
Both instantly dodged.
"Hmph, still acceptable."
She put her hands on her hips and said, "Pack up your things, we're leaving. This stage of training is over."
The two sprang into action. Were they finally returning to civilization after three months of living like savages in the wild?
They drove back to the city.
After a thorough wash-up at the hotel, Kevin threw himself onto the soft bed.
"Ah~"
A comfortable sound escaped from his soul.
"It's a bed, a soft bed that lets you sink in. I almost forgot your touch."
At this moment, the door was pushed open.
Yun Gu and Bisky walked in.
Kevin sat up and looked over.
Yun Gu had obviously tidied himself up well, shedding his savage appearance.
But why did he still look a bit disheveled?
Messy hair, white shirt, dress pants, and leather shoes.
But why was half his shirt hanging out, with the tag still attached? A small section of his underwear was exposed from his waist.
Had he been changed by the wild world? Had he stopped caring about his appearance? You're still so young!
Kevin shook Yun Gu, filled with indignation.
"Don't be defeated by the savage world, Yun Gu, pull yourself together, don't lose your dignity!"
Yun Gu was confused at first, then looked at himself.
His face flushed slightly with embarrassment, and he quickly tidied his appearance.
Bisky, standing nearby, was already so used to it that she didn't even sigh.
Alas, Enhancement.
"Alright, now I have something important to say."
Kevin and Yun Gu immediately became serious.
Bisky looked at Kevin and said, "This stage of training is pretty much done here. You must continue to maintain your physical training, but it's best to keep it at a certain level so you don't injure your body."
Kevin sensed something was off in her words.
Sure enough, he heard Bisky say, "Next, we will part ways. Although I came to teach you at Ging's request,
there's no doubt that I'm very happy to teach you and become your master."
"But…" Kevin still wanted to say something, but was interrupted.
"But your training isn't over. I'm giving you a long-term task. Once you complete it, I will continue your advanced training."
Kevin quieted down and listened carefully.
"In this city, there's a place called Sky Arena. I want you to reach the 200th floor without using Nen Ability attacks."
After speaking, she quietly looked at Kevin and added in a calm voice, "During this period, fully understand your Nen Ability, think about the Nen Ability you want, and construct it using what you've learned."
Kevin nodded; he understood.
Then he looked at Yun Gu.
Unexpectedly, Yun Gu said, "Uh… I've already completed this process, and I learned Nen during it."
He thought for a moment and said, "This process will indeed be very helpful to you. Hmm, very helpful."
"Is that so?"
"Yes."
Yun Gu nodded, very certain.
After giving instructions, Bisky took Yun Gu and left directly.
There was not much sadness of parting, just a brief separation. It wasn't like they wouldn't see each other again, and they had exchanged phone numbers.
Kevin regained his freedom, lying on the bed, silently staring at the ceiling.
Then he suddenly got up and opened the hotel's built-in desktop computer.
He began to search for information.
Sky Arena.
The fourth tallest building in the world.
It has 251 floors and reaches a height of 991 meters.
A landmark building in this city and a world-renowned tourist destination.
The entire building is used for "combat," making it a sacred place for all martial artists in the world.
Is this, is this reasonable?
After a moment's thought about the Nen Ability in this world, he understood.
Finally, he briefly understood the combat mechanism of this building and roughly grasped Bisky's intention.
Due to his poor learning ability, Bisky gave him a clumsy method to improve his combat skills.
To let his body remember, to let his body get used to it through countless battles.
He inexplicably thought of the 'sea of questions' tactic, truly a persistent haunting.
The task was to reach the 200th floor without using Nen attacks. This building has 251 floors.
Starting from the 200th floor upwards, there would be significant changes.
Kevin studied it and roughly understood the difference between the two.
If there were no surprises, above the 200th floor would likely be a battlefield for Nen User.
This meant that below the 200th floor, the probability of encountering Nen User was very low.
Not using Nen attacks but being able to defend provided the conditions for the body to remember, without risking one's life.
To let the body learn through combat.
After understanding, Kevin immediately began to search for other information.
Such as [Hunter].
He hadn't forgotten that both Bisky and Ging called themselves professional Hunters.
"Holy crap, what kind of privilege certificate is this?!"
The first thing he saw was the Hunter Association and the privileges each professional Hunter possessed.
The item representing a Hunter's identity was a certificate called a hunter license.
A symbol of two X's.
With this item:
One can enter 90% of countries generally prohibited from entry and 75% of restricted areas.
One enjoys bank financing equivalent to a top-tier company, can secure high loans with it as collateral, and can stay in countries other than their birth country even without a passport.
One can use computer networks and 95% of public facilities for free.
Many famous individuals are Hunters; 60 of the top 100 on the rich list are Hunters.
This is still a civilian organization, how did they manage it?
Nen Ability? Right, Nen Ability.
To obtain a license, one needed to pass a process called the Hunter Exam.
Held annually in early January.
The current date was May 17, 1994.
He still had to wait more than half a year.
Good! It's decided. I'll use these six months to complete the task, construct my true Nen Ability, and fully understand and use [A Moment of Dream].
Kevin was full of motivation, having planned out his goals.
