Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

That's outrageous.

He was unwilling, and did not need, anyone to pay the price with their life for him.

"..."

Miss Poker kept her head down and remained silent.

She was afraid of death, but who isn't?

If she truly possessed a spirit of selfless sacrifice, she wouldn't have cried out in terror when she thought she was going to die.

But why were we so stubborn back then?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Dia knew that all her previous words had been wasted.

Helpless, he could only sigh and say:

Are you thirsty? Let me get you some water.

As she spoke, Diya casually placed the orange peel she had just peeled on a cabinet to the side.

"...It's alright, I'm not too thirsty after eating oranges...By the way, don't litter, the nurse will definitely scold you when she comes."

Pokson shook his head, not wanting to drink water, and stretched out halfway to wrap the orange peels in a tissue for him, preparing to throw them away later.

"Don't worry, there are no nurses here."

Dia didn't pay any attention and just said it casually.

"? Isn't this a clinic? There are no nurses?"

Pokson froze, then looked at Dia in horror.

"Yes, there used to be, but I bought this place and then drove them all away."

"..."

Pokson stiffly looked down at his hospital gown, clutched his collar, and stammered:

"Then, you changed my clothes?"

Oh no, Mom and Dad, I'll never get married...

Dia gave her a strange look and said irritably:

"Dream on! Of course, it's the doctor who will operate on you who has been changed. Oh right, it's about time, she should be here soon."

The number of people receiving free medical consultations at Qiduo is decreasing every day.

This is a small, isolated town with a population of less than 5,000. The number of people needing medical care is not large to begin with, far less than in big cities. Even with the continuous outpatient visits over the past few days, there are hardly any left.

'she?'

Upon hearing this, Poxon secretly breathed a sigh of relief, unsure whether he felt relieved or disappointed.

It turns out he wasn't the one who switched it...

squeak-

The door to the ward was casually pushed open.

"Dia, stop slacking off, hurry up and move the cabinet..."

Qiduo's voice appeared before she did, and she paused visibly when she stepped into the ward.

The girl who had been in a coma until now has actually woken up in the hospital bed.

'How come he woke up just as he got back...'

Qi Duo frowned, then calmly said:

"Why are you awake? Is there anything that's bothering you?"

In fact, based on the data from the full-body examination over the past few days, it should still be some time before the girl wakes up.

Even if someone wakes up early due to unforeseen circumstances, their physical condition should still be quite weak.

Poxon opened his mouth, a look of confusion flashing in his eyes.

Shouldn't I have woken up?

Isn't this the current vice president of the Hunter Association I've met before? I think she was also Dia's teacher. What's she doing here?

Dia interjected at the opportune moment:

"I haven't formally introduced her to you yet. You've met her before, Qiduo, my teacher. She's a very skilled doctor. She's the one who went to great lengths to save you these past few days."

She saved me...

Pokson forced an unnatural smile and thanked him.

Qiduo rolled her eyes at Diya.

He didn't even greet her when she came in, humph!

Then she stepped forward, saying as she walked:

"I didn't spend much effort. It was mainly because Diya saved your life with that precious seed. To be honest, even I didn't know that this [mother seed] could be used like this."

Upon hearing Qiduo's words, Pokson subconsciously looked at Dia, feeling a mix of emotions.

It can't be without consequences, as expected; now the debt is piling up...

pat, pat...

As Qiduo's footsteps drew closer, Poxon turned to look at her.

The girl in front of her had beautiful, long, green hair that cascaded down her back, and eyes like jewels. She was looking at her intently, and although she didn't look much older than her, she exuded an aura and confidence that far surpassed hers. Her eyes and brows held the gentleness of a doctor and the composure of someone in a superior position.

He's somewhat like Dia... but without his subtle domineering "I'm the only one in the world" attitude.

'He seems to be the kind of person who is confident but not arrogant, gentle but also very principled.'

Poxon thought to himself.

The last time she met Qiduo, she was just an ordinary person who only knew that Qiduo had achieved remarkable success at a young age. Now, as a Nen user, she sees it even more clearly.

That seamless "Entanglement" was as calm as a still mercury lake, profound and natural, clearly indicating a very deep mastery of Nen abilities.

"Hmm? Why is your face so red?"

Seeing that Pokson's rosy complexion was nothing like that of a patient who had just woken up, Qiduo couldn't help but cast a suspicious glance at Dia beside him.

When she came in, she thought she saw Poxon grabbing her collar...

"Tell me, what did you do?"

"No, no, I gave her two oranges to eat. Didn't you say those two oranges had a healing effect?"

Dia quickly pointed to the miniature orange tree and argued:

"What can I do in such a short time?"

So, if you have enough time, you'll do something?

Qi Duo glared at him, her spiritual energy surging as she activated the Shadowless Lamp once more.

Pokson only saw a flash of light, causing her to unconsciously close her eyes, and then she heard Qiduo's voice:

"Hmm... She's healthy, so I'm glad you did. She's just recovered from a serious illness, so don't bother her, okay? Don't take her to training or anything like that. It won't make a difference if she doesn't get involved, understand?"

"...I don't understand what you're saying. I didn't do anything, hey hey..."

Pokson opened his eyes in confusion and saw Dia being dragged out of the ward by Qiduo by the collar, looking helpless, while making strange "eh eh" sounds.

What are they going to do?

Pokson said he didn't understand, but he vaguely felt a little unhappy.

'Aren't Dia and Miss Qiduo teacher and student? Given their relationship, wasn't their behavior just now a little too intimate?'

Suspicion arose in Poxon's heart, and he immediately sensed something was wrong!

"May I ask, what are your thoughts on that child?"

Qi Duo crossed her arms and asked in a cold voice.

A straightforward, unpretentious, and unambiguous statement!

She didn't want to question Dia in this way, as it would make her seem like she liked to interfere in other people's private lives, which wasn't a good thing.

Dia is a living, breathing individual with flesh and blood and emotions.

Even parents have no reason or right to decide who their children associate with.

Besides, she and Diya were only master and apprentice.

But the words only became more painful as they came to mind.

Unable to contain herself, her tone gradually turned cold.

'If you don't have any ideas, it's best not to give others too much room for speculation; this is to prevent Diya from going astray.'

That's how she convinced herself to ask that question.

Dia leaned against the wall in silence, frowning and pondering for a long time.

As time passed, Qiduo's heart sank, and her beautiful eyebrows drooped.

She opened her mouth slightly as if to say something, but felt her throat was dry and couldn't speak.

Suddenly, Dia spoke up:

"You should know that I can pause time, right?"

It's like when an old man under the eaves looks at the watermelons in the field after a meal and casually says, "It's time to go home."

Qi Duo thought to herself:

'He really does have ideas... Wait, what did he say?'

Qi Duo's mood was like a roller coaster ride, soaring from the bottom of the valley to the top of the mountain in an instant.
