My Journey Of Hunter X Hunter - Chapter 23

NOTE! This chapter is a filler so the anime doesn’t have this content and I just made it up but here you go. NOTE!

We’re cruising smoothly on a boat with the next examiner for the next hunter exam test.

“I’m exhausted.” One applicant tells another.

“Same. This test is tough.” The person replies.

I’m not gonna lie, I have to agree with them. The hunter exam really tests your skills and how mentally aware you are. I think I’m doing pretty good so far…even though my physical level in real life is WAY lower than in here.

“So, why did you take the hunter exam?”

I look behind me and see a couple of applicants huddled together in a small-ish circle.

“I want to become a hunter so I’m able to get access into the restricted parts that hunters are entitled to.” One says.

“My cousin is a hunter so I want to be one too. I also hear you get great perks!” Another exclaims.

“Hey, you know, hunters get an average 35% more money than a normal person! So, becoming a hunter makes you even richer!” A burly applicant tells the group with excitement oozing from his body.

“I thought it was 10%”

“No, it’s 50%”

“Isn’t it 48%”

They all shout out random numbers with no relation to the actual answer.

I turn around to the others and find Leorio staring at me. I quickly glance back to make sure that I’m the one he’s looking at. Returning my eyes on Leorio, I see that his gaze hasn’t wavered.

“Did you need something?” I ask him.

Leorio stares a little bit more before answering.

“Not really. I’m just thinking about why you look mysterious and suspicious.”

“What?” I sweatdrop. “I don’t look mysterious or suspicious. If anything, I look uninteresting.” I chuckle, nervously.

His deep gaze still seeps towards me but then he sighs.

“I give up. But don’t forget…I’ll find out your secret soon…”

“Haha…I’m sure you will.” I doubt he’ll find out that I’m from another world, or rather dimension, unless I give the answer to him straight.

Silence filled the air and to escape from boredom, I glanced around. My eyes fell on Hisoka, just laying there, on the side of the boat (well, he was sitting but I think you know what I mean). His eyes were closed and his arms crossed as his pink hair stood on its end as always.

Hisoka is one of my least favourite characters but seeing him in reality and up close makes him look interesting as well as deadly.

I feel something tugging at my clothes and checking to see what, I find Hisoka’s bungee gum and his alluring smile.

What have I done now?
