Starting as an inventor from Hunter x Hunter

Page 59

All participants must test their skills on the first floor, so apart from the waiting room, the first floor consists of one competition arena after another.

Feitan was the first to fight.

And his opponent~~~

"Hahaha, how did I get matched with such a short guy?!"

In front of Feitan, his dark, thin, tall opponent, with a physique like a bamboo pole, was overjoyed and even arrogantly put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly.

"This guy is beyond saving."

Hearing this, Mog, who was sitting in the audience, sighed.

Nobunaga, who was following behind him, opened his mouth, then nodded and closed it.

Well, there's really not much to say about a guy who's about to die.

"This guy is dead meat."

Inside the waiting room, Uvogin and Feitan, seeing this, immediately sentenced the other to death.

"What?! This family is so lucky!"

In the same waiting room, the other applicants waiting to compete witnessed this scene with a mixture of envy and jealousy.

Some people were even pounding their chests and stamping their feet, lamenting that Feitan had truly found a worthy opponent.

"~~~~~~"

Uvogin and Finks both glanced sideways at the same time.

Since they both want to meet, they should wish each other victory in this round so that they can face Feitan in the next match.

And it wasn't just the waiting room; the reaction was the same in the stands as well.

"What? Isn't this gap just too big?"

"The outcome of the match is obvious at a glance, it's not interesting at all."

"Seriously, is there something wrong with the recent contestants?! How can contestants of this caliber even be allowed to compete?!"

"There's nothing we can do. After all, the Sky Arena's reputation is that as long as you sign up and are willing to pursue fighting competitions, they are willing to give you the opportunity to sign up."

"That's still not enough to send a player like that onto the field!!"

"What the hell are you arguing about?! If you want to see better, more intense matches, go upstairs, go over a hundred floors, and pay to watch them!! If you're willing to pay, you can even watch the host's match, so what's with all this whining and bickering here?!"

"What the hell is it to you if I want to ramble on?!"

"Get lost!! I fucking hate you freeloaders. It's good enough that there's something to see, why are you being so picky..."

There's already a bit of hype going on in the audience.

Some people were also cheering on the skinny, dark-skinned guy below: "Be gentle, don't hurt the kids!!"

"You really hit the jackpot!!"

Even the skinny, dark-skinned guy himself thinks so:

"Hahahaha, I'm so lucky! I never thought Lady Luck would be so kind to me!!"

The skinny, dark-skinned man rubbed his hands together, completely disregarding Feitan.

"Shorty..."

A sinister smile crept across his face. "I will cherish you."

"You'll regret ever being born..."

Whoosh~! !

Before he could finish speaking, he felt a blur before his eyes, and then the "little dwarf" that he thought he could easily defeat disappeared from his sight.

Immediately following, a whooshing sound rang out.

And then~~~

Kaka.

A cracking sound followed.

"!!!"

The thin, dark-skinned opponent with the bamboo pole clearly heard the sound of his own bones breaking.

Then, that excruciating, tearing pain instantly entered his consciousness.

"what……"

It made him instinctively open his mouth and couldn't help but let out a painful howl.

However~~~

His howl was barely begun before it abruptly stopped.

Click, click, click…

The surrounding audience even stopped arguing.

Those terrified eyes clearly revealed the scene unfolding on the battle stage below.

Before their wide-open eyes, Feitan punched his skinny, dark-skinned opponent in the throat, causing him to cough up blood and become unable to make a sound.

At the same time, he reached out and smashed out the teeth of his skinny, dark-skinned opponent, one by one.

"I hate your pig-like voice."

Feitan's voice was as calm as still water.

And then, it's even worse.

Amidst the horrified gazes of the many spectators.

Feitan picked up the opponent's knocked-out teeth and, while the opponent was trembling in pain, forcefully pried open the opponent's mouth.

Then, using the sharp points of those teeth, it forcefully slashed and twisted the opponent's tongue!

Until the other person's mouth was full of blood, their body was convulsing and they could no longer move.

Feitan then removed his hand from the other's mouth.

Then, with a look of utter disgust, he shook off the bits of tongue that had been pulled out along with it.

"You've escaped with your life."

Feitan gave one last glance at his opponent, who lay on the ground like a dead dog, barely breathing.

"If it weren't for the rules of the Sky Arena that prohibit killing, your head would already be on the ground."

He said it calmly, and never looked at him again.

Well, in terms of following the rules of the game, Feitan hasn't evolved to the point where he'd stop at nothing to complete missions later on.

At least I still have a tiny bit of youthful spirit left.

Then, he turned around and looked at the referee who was standing silently to the side.

"Just a friendly reminder..."

Feitan said in a low voice, "I have a suggestion for you. It would be best if you could bring weapons for the first round of battles."

"Nothing too intense is needed; a small knife will suffice."

"Otherwise, I would have to use his teeth to cut off his tongue, which would be more difficult."

"And he'll suffer even more..."

Feitan was genuinely offering a friendly reminder: "I think you should consider this suggestion."

The referee on the battle stage: "..."

His eyelids twitched violently.

Nobunaga, sitting in the audience, wore an expression of strong agreement.

He was so sincere that he almost wanted to support Feitan's point of view with both hands and feet.

First, he glanced at the skinny, black, dead dog on the ground, then at Feitan, who was short in stature and looked like a child, but whose strength far surpassed that of ordinary people...

"Go to the 100th floor!!"

The referee was silent for a moment, then immediately raised his hand and announced loudly.

The judges will decide which floor each contestant will be sent to based on their performance within three minutes.

Of course, the better your strength, the higher the level you will be assigned to.

In fact, generally speaking, there are unspoken rules in their judging process.

For example, for someone who hasn't demonstrated Nen ability, the highest they can go is the fiftieth floor.

However, during the battle, it was revealed that he had already learned Nen, so he could start at the hundredth floor.

After all, floors below one hundred are completely meaningless to these people; they're child's play.

Just now, Feitan, in his anger, unleashed his full power without hesitation, increasing his speed.

And without a doubt, this referee also knows Nen abilities.

After seeing Feitan's true nature, he never spoke up to stop Feitan's cruel acts.

On the one hand, stopping the other party from venting their revenge would clearly be going against a Nen user who could potentially become the future leader of the building, and would potentially offend the other party, which is not worth it at all.

On the other hand, it was the other party who was being sarcastic and mocking Feitan, which clearly touched on the taboo that the other party cared about most.

If someone is courting death, as long as it's within the rules and doesn't pose a risk of death, he will tacitly allow it and not interfere.

Everyone must pay the price for their actions.

And so, Feitan successfully ascended to over one hundred floors.

After passing the 100th floor, you can have a private room.

However, if you are defeated in battle and fall below the 100th floor, you will be taken back to the room.

And once you reach the hundredth floor, every battle could very well be a life-or-death struggle.

If you're not careful, someone could really die.
