Six-Eyed Sukuna, starting from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 27 The Wheel of Fate in the Emperor's World

Su Wu slept from noon on the 28th until the morning of the 29th, until she was awakened by the sound of the breakfast waiter knocking on the door.

As if he wasn't fully awake, he was barefoot and shirtless, yawning as he opened the door.

"Excuse me, your breakfast reservation has been interrupted." The waiter glanced at the black markings on the boy's chest and abdomen, then quickly bowed his head, pushed the food cart into the room, and quietly left.

The exquisite and luxurious breakfast was well worth the large sum of room fee he had left at the front desk the day before.

The luxurious bed was very comfortable to sleep in. Although he wasn't picky, his life in Meteor City had almost made him forget all about his past living conditions.

"Ah... I'm actually hungry." After washing up, he sat on the edge of the bed to enjoy his breakfast, then rinsed his mouth again and changed his clothes.

There was a train ticket under the tray on the table; he had asked the receptionist to book it for him yesterday.

The cost of the train ticket was also deducted from the prepaid room fee.

That's why he chose a luxury hotel—good service and convenience.

His gaze fell on the train ticket, then shifted away after a moment and turned on the television in the room.

"...The train leaves in the afternoon, so there's still plenty of time."

Check out the Hunter World TV news channel.

"...The body of the 132nd woman murdered by serial killer Kleber Farr in the Republic of Calio has been discovered. Kleber is still on the run, and his bounty has risen to 100 million jenny..."

"The bombing in the Republic of West Grudo has been confirmed as the work of the Class A criminal gang, Crows..."

"The 286th Hunter Exam is about to begin. Those aspiring to become Hunters shouldn't miss it..."

Cases that occur on various continents and are known to the public will appear on the news channel, and there will even be interruptions to broadcast news, such as announcements about the Hunter Exam.

I don't know if the Hunter Association paid me or not.

The white-haired boy watched for a while, then lay back down on the bed, falling asleep again as the news played on the television.

When he woke up again, he quickly packed his things, ate lunch, and left the hotel with his bag.

Of course, before leaving, in order to quickly figure out the effects of the different cards, he tried out his Nen ability once again—the Law Wheel.

And three cards with unknown effects were drawn.

[Emperor in the Right Position] Buff Card

[Reversed Wheel of Fortune] Debuff Card

[Upright World] Buff Card

He immediately used the Emperor and World buff cards on himself, and then transformed himself—suddenly a crown, cloak, and scepter appeared on his body.

The Emperor is a card that, like the Pope, comes with a customizable outfit effect.

However, the effects of the world seemed to be subtly enhancing the energy within him.

Dressed in such a luxurious and extravagant outfit, he found the station by asking for directions and finally boarded the train to Port Banato.

The station facilities are complete and look relatively new, and there are a lot of passengers.

"Let me see, the seat is here." He walked around and finally found his seat. He casually sat down, glanced at the small and not very soft seat, and then glanced at the noisy passengers around him. After a silent sigh, he simply closed his eyes to avoid seeing or hearing anything.

We should remind the front desk that we should book the luxury carriage even if it costs extra.

The life energy of the people around me is within the range of ordinary people; there are no particularly outstanding individuals.

However, there were several individuals in the luxury carriages at the front with life energy far exceeding that of ordinary people.

With the unused Wheel of Fortune starting its final three-minute countdown, Su Wu casually tossed it onto a nearby ordinary man, crossed her arms, and leisurely waited for the card's effect to materialize.

Sitting to Su Wu's left, the five men seemed to be a small group. Even on the train, they were as relaxed and at ease as if they were at home or in a private place, holding alcoholic beverages, laughing and toasting, and chatting about all sorts of topics.

The conversation started with who slept with whose wife, or who forced themselves on a hot-tempered, beautiful woman, and went on to discuss shady ways to make money.

One of the men, amidst their laughter, suddenly noticed the white-haired boy not far away.

The other person was dressed extravagantly, and had strange, ominous black markings on their face. As soon as they boarded the train, they attracted everyone's attention. At this moment, the other person was quietly watching them with their large, bright, azure eyes.

Or rather, the other party was watching one of their members.

"Hey, that weird kid is watching you." He spoke stiffly, forcing a smile, to remind the person next to him. His hand holding the drink was stiff; for some reason, he couldn't laugh or rant naturally under that gaze.

Her eyes, so beautiful yet calm, indifferent, even aloof, exuded an aura of authority that commanded respect.

"Huh? Strange kid? Look at me?" The man who received the reminder was a little confused and couldn't connect these keywords together, so he turned around to look at the so-called strange kid.

But as soon as he turned his head, he bumped into something hard, and scalding liquid poured over his head.

"Ah—" The flight attendant screamed as she was knocked over by a passenger who suddenly turned his head.

"It's so hot!" The man, who had been doused with hot water, stood up and jumped up, then ran towards the bathroom.

My mind was filled with thoughts of scalding myself with hot water and needing to cool it down with cold water.

He had only run three meters when he stepped on a banana peel that a child had thrown on the ground, and he slid several meters away, crashing into the door of the carriage.

"...Pfft..." Su Wu laughed gleefully as she witnessed the other party's series of unfortunate and miserable misfortunes.

What? The effect of the reversed Wheel of Fortune is bad luck!

So, the Wheel of Fortune in its upright position should bring good fortune, right?

But people's misfortunes come in many forms, and their good fortunes also vary.

Misfortune and luck are an unpredictable and mysterious phenomenon, and their effects vary depending on when they are used.

This card might be the most uncontrollable of all the cards.

"What are you laughing at? Are you mocking us brothers?!" The unlucky guy's friend rushed over to help him up after hearing the commotion, while loudly scolding the white-haired boy who was laughing.

Several strong young men looked fierce and menacing, so the other passengers didn't dare to get involved.

Those of them who live in this world understand all too well the consequences of recklessly getting involved in dangerous situations.

"And then?" The white-haired boy smiled faintly, with an air of condescending arrogance.

"What are you going to do?" he asked, seemingly expectant, as if anticipating the ants' next move, without a trace of worry or fear.

"You brat..." The men clenched their fists in anger at the boy's dismissive attitude.

"Shut up." Su Wu twirled the emperor's scepter in her hand and suddenly spoke up as if struck by a sudden inspiration.

In an instant, the entire carriage fell silent, and everyone shut their mouths.

"Kneel down." He looked at the men and spoke casually with a hint of probing, lightly tapping the ground with his scepter.

If he wasn't mistaken, the Emperor card's ability should be able to do that...

The group of people looked terrified and incredulous as they discovered that their bodies and mouths were no longer under their control. Their knees bent involuntarily, their bones cracking, and they knelt heavily in the direction of the boy.

Ah, it really can achieve the level of strict obedience.

"Interesting." Su Wu smiled with great interest, holding the Emperor and the World card between her fingers.
