Hunter x Hunter: Infinite Growth

“I know you are eager for quick results, but I must remind you that learning ability cannot be rushed and may even require planning in units of several years.”

“I don’t yet know your talents, so I can’t rashly instill telekinesis into you. Although such infusion will not endanger your lives, the risks are extremely high.”

After speaking, Kevin specifically looked at Pai Luo.

Because his mother was still alive, Kurapika had relatively less desire for revenge and less inner turmoil.

But Pyro was different. Of the three, his desire for revenge was the strongest at this moment, and he was almost completely trapped in it.

This state is very detrimental to learning ability.

Being too extreme makes it too easy to inexplicably create strange Nen abilities, which may be highly targeted, but also lose their malleability.

“Especially you, Piro. You should know that you have old injuries and your body is still very weak. So I must help you get better before I consider teaching you Nen.” Kevin said with a serious expression.

Piro looked anxious, opened his mouth but couldn't find a rebuttal, so he could only take a deep breath and nod helplessly.

Kurapika glanced at Palkia with concern.

“Training won’t start immediately; you need to get yourself ready first. I may begin teaching you formally after I return from the hunter exam. During the preparation phase before that, I will ask a fellow disciple to come and guide you.”

Actually, Kevin had already contacted Yung Valley yesterday. Yung Valley happens to be available recently and can arrive before the end of the month.

This would be a good opportunity to temporarily instruct Kevin on the task while he is away.

Leaving Wright and Neon alone, they went to yesterday's garden courtyard together.

Kevin looked at Neon and asked, "How did you acquire this divination ability?"

Neon raised her head slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "I learned it from TV. I've watched a lot of fortune-telling programs on TV."

Wright added from the side, "She loves watching that fortune-telling show. She's been following it for years, never missing an episode, and she still watches it every day now."

“Because the show is good, and she’s going to be a fortune teller in the future,” Neon muttered to her father, somewhat dissatisfied.

So this is how he awakened his Nen ability? Is this what they call a natural talent? Kevin thought to himself with awe.

"You can't sense Nen, right?" Kevin continued to ask.

"What is that?" Neon asked, looking completely bewildered.

Kevin had noticed before that Neon was in a state of "absolute".

“That’s it.” Kevin said, gently placing his hand on the back of Neon’s hand and slowly channeling his Nen into her.

I only felt a slight resistance.

“I have a little bit of a feeling, oh, it’s so magical, like there’s an invisible, soft membrane,” Neon said with curiosity.

It seems she can still sense something.

"Are there any restrictions on your divination services?" Kevin continued to ask.

"Yes, it must be strictly followed."

As soon as the topic of divination came up, Neon immediately perked up and began to talk non-stop, sharing her thoughts before the divination, her longing for a better life, and so on.

Kevin didn't interrupt her and listened patiently.

After listening, Kevin felt more confident.

It is certain that Neon was able to awaken this Nen ability because of her love for divination, as well as her pure understanding and beautiful aspirations for it.

Kevin compiled and summarized the limitations of Neon's divination abilities as follows:

1. You need to know the other person's real name, blood type, and date of birth.

2. After divination, one should not look at it, interpret it, or perform divination for oneself.

3. A divination can only be performed on the same person once a month. The divination result is presented in the form of a poem and needs to be interpreted by the person being divined.

4. The future is not static; it can be changed. However, it is difficult to predict what specific changes will occur after the changes.

Life doesn't mean that changes will necessarily lead to a better outcome; accidents and dangers are always lurking.

Moreover, the fact that Neon has always maintained a state of "absolute" seems to be one of the subconscious limitations.

Being in a state of "absolute" status for an extended period under the limitations of one's learning ability is extremely dangerous.

Although Neon's ability is still ridiculously powerful, after some analysis, it now seems at least a little more reasonable.

Of course, this is largely due to her exceptional natural talent.

To some extent, Neon's ability to awaken her Nen abilities on her own is enough to prove her extraordinary talent.

"Now, let's proceed with the final check and let me personally experience your divination."

Kevin thought that after this examination, he would probably have a clearer understanding of the specifics of Neo's Nen abilities and the constraints that needed to be followed.

Chapter 85 My Own Prophecy X Interpretation

Neon would naturally not refuse to do divination for others.

She was even quite happy to do so, knowing it was her ability, her advantage, and her passion.

“Then please tell me your name, date of birth, and blood type,” Neon said.

Kevin nodded and said, "Name: Kevin Carpemberg, date of birth: May 17, 1973, blood type A."

After listening, Neon picked up her pen to write down the prophecy, but suddenly tore the paper to shreds, her face full of displeasure.

Wright was quite taken aback, as this was the first time he had ever seen his daughter like this.

Neon angrily shouted, "No, no! You're lying, the name is wrong!"

After saying that, she widened her eyes and glared angrily at Kevin.

“Is the name wrong…” Kevin fell into deep thought.

It seems that the birth date and blood type are correct, since these are the original information of this body.

Could it be that a name represents the soul? Kevin suddenly realized.

“Sorry, I didn’t think of that. Let’s start over. This time I’ll tell the truth,” Kevin said.

"Hmph!" Neo snorted coldly, crossing her arms over her chest, but still sat down.

Wright hadn't expected Kevin to be using a fake name.

Kevin explained briefly: "I actually have two names; this is the name I chose later."

Wright nodded in sudden realization. This kind of situation was quite common and nothing to be surprised about. However, he really hadn't expected this to happen.

Name: Zhong Wen.

What's this name? It sounds a bit strange and hard to pronounce.

Are they from ethnic minorities? But they don't look like it. No, wait, they do look somewhat like it.

He had heard of this kind of distinctive name before.

This time it's finally correct.

Neon's eyes immediately went blank, losing their sparkle.

Kevin then focused intently on activating [Concentration] and began to observe carefully.

He saw it; a breath began to surge within Neon.

"A Nen beast?" Kevin was somewhat surprised, not expecting Neon to manifest a Nen beast, and one that was not exactly beautiful.

This pink Nen Beast has a wrinkled face, looking like a monster, but it has a pair of cute wings on its back.

It slowly flew to Neon's hand holding the pen and began to write.

It felt as if the pen had started moving on its own, and Nyon was simply holding it.

Soon, the prophecy was fulfilled.

The Nymph flew back slowly and disappeared. Neon returned to normal and handed the prophetic poem to Kevin.

“So little.” That was Kevin’s first reaction when he saw the prophetic poem.

The prophetic poem consists of only two short stanzas:

Raise your banner for your legion; like-minded companions have gathered around you. The cunning wolf has submitted, a jewel in its mouth, followed by its pack; and the three red-eyed birds have landed on your shoulders.

A long-awaited trial of heritage is drawing near; the steel ship destined for the sea has reached the shore. Lift your head and head north; your white-haired friend awaits your arrival there.

This wasn't something that had happened before. Could it be something that would happen in the next two weeks? Kevin wondered to himself.

So that's how it is; he learned of a new condition.

So-called prophetic poems are based on the current month; events that have already happened will not be written down, only the parts that have not yet been experienced will be predicted.

In other words, if you book a divination in the last week of the month, you may only receive one prophetic poem.

With that thought in mind, Kevin focused his attention on his prophetic poem. Interpreting his own future was quite an interesting experience.

The first paragraph hardly needs much interpretation, because Kevin already had similar thoughts in mind, as if he had written down his ideas.

And this was exactly what Kevin had hoped for.

The "wolf with a jewel in its mouth" in the poem obviously refers to Wright and Neon, as well as the gangster family they control.

The "three red-eyed birds" are clearly the three members of the Kuruta tribe.

This means that the three of them meet Kevin's requirements and expectations.

Kevin hadn't forgotten the conditions he'd considered yesterday; these three people had to be gifted to meet his expectations.

In retrospect, they were gifted, which perfectly fits the description.

Moreover, the accuracy of prophetic poems has been verified.

With this, Kevin felt much more at ease and could now confidently channel his energy into the three of them to help them unlock their Nen abilities.

However, the only one we need to pay extra attention to is Pello. Just to be on the safe side, we should get his health in order first.

However, Parrow's physical condition was worse than Kevin had expected... Hmm, he needed to have a professional doctor conduct a more detailed examination and work together with him to treat the condition.

Whether it was because of Parrow's fiery talent, because Mito entrusted him to him, or because Kevin genuinely needed his assistance, all of this meant Kevin had to take it seriously and be extremely careful to ensure that Parrow's body returned to a healthy state.

Kevin snapped out of his reverie and looked at the second verse of the prophetic poem.

The meaning of this passage is also quite clear; it should refer to the fact that he will start preparing for the hunter exam at the end of the month.

After all, the location of the hunter exam was uncertain, and if they didn't set off in advance, something might go wrong, and missing the exam would mean waiting another year, which Kevin couldn't accept.

Would you call this "stealing" the exam questions in advance?

After all, the prophetic poem clearly indicated the direction of the meeting place, which was on a coastline to the north of where he was now, and even mentioned a ship docking at the shore.

With such clear directional information, combined with the intelligence I've gathered, finding the venue shouldn't be difficult.

"The white-haired friend," Kevin guessed it must be Kate. Could it be that he arrived before him and was waiting for him there?

After deciphering the prophetic poem, Kevin pondered for a moment before handing it to Wright.

This is the foundation for building mutual trust, especially since he had also seen the other party's previous predictions.

Wright, who was already curious, took the prophetic poem and began to read it.

Compared to the prophecies he had seen before, this poem was more down-to-earth, but it clearly showed Kevin's choices and thoughts.

"But there are only two sections? And they don't seem complicated to decipher?" Wright asked.

"This is a condition I just discovered; it can only predict events of the current month, and will not mention events that have already occurred."

"Perhaps the more important the situation, the more complex the prophetic poem will be written, while if the situation is not important, the prophetic poem will be exceptionally easy to interpret," Kevin explained.

His two paragraphs are almost obvious, and the answer can be obtained without much obvious thinking.

Wright listened and nodded, making sure he remembered the key point.

He then looked at Kevin nervously, waiting for the other to make a judgment.

Kevin smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I've roughly figured out the conditions for Neo's ability, and so far it doesn't seem to pose any threat to me."

However, her ability to protect herself may be limited in the future, so I will try to arrange for someone to protect her safety.

“Okay, that’s good. I’ll pay more attention to that too,” Wright said seriously.

The two chatted for a while longer.

Kevin suddenly stood up and said, "Since the prophetic poem has given clear information, I will no longer hesitate to wait."
