I'm in HxH, Survive for Five Years!

Chapter 53: 53



After a while, two more figures emerged from the dense forest not far away. One of them was missing his right arm and left leg, hopping along on his remaining leg.

Swish, swish, swish! ! !

All eyes converged instantly, targeting the figure missing its right arm and left leg.

"It's Hisoka. His injuries from the battle with Ethan were so severe."

"He dared to show up. Isn't he afraid that Ethan might kill him?"

"...."

The mutilated figure was none other than Hisoka, accompanied by Illumi, disguised as Gittarackur.

Gon and Leorio looked shocked upon seeing the state of Hisoka's injuries.

Killua and Hanzo were also surprised, and they instinctively glanced at Ethan, curious about how he would react to Hisoka's appearance.

Unexpectedly, Ethan didn't react at all. He just glanced at Hisoka and then looked away with a calm expression.

Lisa beside him was similarly composed. Although she looked at Hisoka with more wariness than Ethan, she showed no signs of attacking.

"Did they not take action? Is it because of the Hunter Exam rules, or do they see me as a defeated non-threat..."

Upon reaching the coast, Hisoka's eyes immediately turned to Ethan.

Seeing Ethan's calm demeanor, Hisoka's eyes narrowed slightly.

But soon, he too looked away, standing with Illumi with a composed expression. He even had time to eye other candidates, like Gon and Kurapika, with interest.

Gon and Kurapika were also considered delightful fruits by Hisoka.

But compared to Ethan, these two fruits still needed time to mature before they could be picked and savored.

The expected battle did not erupt.

However, Killua and Hanzo remained on alert, keeping an eye on both Ethan and Hisoka.

Meanwhile, Gon and Leorio, though shocked by Hisoka's injuries, refrained from asking questions and remained silent.

"The time is up. All candidates who have collected their scores, please board the ship. We will proceed to the location of the final exam!"

After waiting in a somewhat tense atmosphere, the girl responsible for tallying scores from the Hunter Association emerged from the boat and began the process.

Unsurprisingly, no one had cheated; everyone had the required six points. They then boarded the airship heading to the final exam location.

"The last round is about to begin. Passing it means I'll get my Hunter license!"

"It's not time to relax yet. The final exam is bound to be the toughest."

"Killua, what do you think the last test will be?"

After boarding the airship, the Hunter Association staff announced free time until they reached the final exam site, prompting candidates to gather in groups.

Among them, the protagonist group gathered in the corridor, discussing their predictions for the final exam while enjoying the view outside.

Ethan and Lisa found a room to use as a lounge.

"Illumi and Hisoka are always together. It seems Illumi really intends to protect Hisoka," Lisa remarked, crossing her arms in discomfort as they sat on the sofa.

Ethan rested his left hand on the sofa's armrest, tapping his index finger thoughtfully. "Though it's unfortunate, the situation was anticipated. Now isn't the right time to take action."

If possible, Ethan would have liked to eliminate the threat of Hisoka completely.

However, Illumi's presence indicated a protective alliance with Hisoka.

Ignoring the Hunter Exam rules, any attempt on Hisoka would have to wait until the exam concluded. Even then, taking action with Illumi in the way wouldn't be easy.

Ethan wasn't afraid of Illumi and was confident in defeating him, but it wouldn't be a quick victory.

Thus, dealing with Hisoka would have to be left to Lisa.

Despite Hisoka's missing limbs, his dangerous nature made Ethan uneasy about leaving Lisa to confront him alone.

Moreover, Hisoka might choose to flee under Illumi's protection rather than engage in a fight.

This was why Ethan and Lisa had discussed their approach when waiting for the fourth exam's conclusion.

Though Lisa was somewhat reluctant, she understood it was the only viable path.

After all, superior skills win the day.

Even with Hisoka's severe injuries, she wasn't entirely confident in defeating or even containing him.

"Attention, candidates: the president will be conducting interviews with each of you next. When your number is called, please proceed to the reception room on the second floor for your interview..."

The announcement echoed through the airship.

"Interview?!" Lisa's attention shifted from the Hisoka situation to the announcement, surprise evident on her face.

"It's likely a precursor to the final exam," Ethan replied with a slight smile.

.....

In the reception room on the second floor, it wasn't long before Ethan's turn came.

Sliding open the door, Ethan stepped inside and saw Netero seated there.

"Have a seat; it's just a casual chat," Netero smiled, gesturing to the spot opposite him.

"What would you like to discuss?" Ethan asked as he casually sat down.

"First, why do you want to become a Hunter?" Netero inquired, brush and paper in hand.

Ethan smiled and replied, "I want a Hunter license. It offers a lot of conveniences, like access to intelligence and secret information. Having a Hunter license makes obtaining these much easier."
