Chapter 33 Maro X Maloo √

Will he tell me his name?

"Would he be willing to talk to me?"

"At this age, with this level of ability, they would surely look down on someone as weak as me..."

The blond boy with a bob cut had his fingernails dug deep into the flesh of his palms, hidden behind his back, yet his face still held that cautious, shy expression as he gazed at the white-haired, blue-eyed boy.

The complex charm that the other person possesses, combining two extremes, is extremely rare and therefore very eye-catching.

"Before asking someone's name, you should state your own name first."

The white-haired, blue-eyed boy raised an eyebrow, and the black markings on his face moved accordingly. His gaze was indifferent, but there was nothing special about it.

There was no disdain, no appreciation, just indifference.

His incredibly fair gaze inexplicably put me at ease.

"My name is Maro, and I'm from Yoker City..." The blonde girl introduced herself with a slightly shy expression, her face even turning red.

This guy... is he blushing like a teapot?

Su Wu couldn't bear to look directly at it and looked away, her gaze falling on the sky outside the glass window.

Come to think of it, the pronunciation of the name Maro sounds a lot like "Maluo"...

"They came from Youkexin, oh, I see, okay?" Su Wu nodded slightly and answered politely, but as soon as he finished speaking, he realized the problem.

Oh, I said the wrong name.

Oh well, it's not a big problem. Even if this guy realizes what's going on, getting angry won't do any good, right? Because he's so weak.

The name Youkexin is also familiar; it's the city where the auctions are held, and it's said to be controlled by gangsters.

How can a mob living in a city controlled by gangsters look so timid?

"Um...you haven't told me your name yet..." Maro asked cautiously.

"...Hill," Su Wu gave her pseudonym.

"Hmm! Hill! Can I come with you?" The blonde girl's face showed obvious excitement and joy.

But he only used a pseudonym, didn't he? Sure enough, he couldn't understand the thoughts of weak creatures.

While thinking this to herself, Su Wu decisively replied, "No."

He had no interest in working with others, especially if they might be a burden.

"I mean, when we're on the airship, you don't have to worry about whether I live or die after we get off. Of course, if I run into trouble on the airship, you don't have to worry about it either. Just let me follow you..." The blonde girl tried to say something to move him, but the white-haired, blue-eyed boy remained unmoved.

"It's so noisy." He even frowned and impatiently interrupted the other person.

"Don't follow me." His figure vanished instantly from Maro's sight.

"...I was rejected..." The blonde girl looked at the empty space in front of her and lowered her head.

"Sure enough, no one wants to be friends with someone as weak as me," he murmured to himself.

Blood dripped from his palm onto the transparent glass, and he quickly knelt down to wipe the glass clean.

……

Su Wu shook off Ma Lou and went to a rest room that was empty.

The lounge is a single room with a bed that is approximately 1.8 x 2 meters in size and a private bathroom.

It can't compare to the environment of luxury hotels, but it's much better than a regular inn.

He put his backpack on the bed, picked up a pen, wrote a small note, and stuck it on the door of his room.

Entry is prohibited without permission.

After glancing at the contents of the note, he walked towards the recreation room with peace of mind.

Many people had already arrived at the entertainment room before him.

There were people sitting at the bar, drinking, and a few others were playing cards together.

"You lost again. Looks like your luck hasn't been great lately."

"Bad luck can easily lead to your demise during an exam."

The person who won the most was all smiles, while the person who lost the most was so angry that he drew a knife and held it to the neck of the biggest winner.

"If you kill me now, you'll be disqualified from the exam." The man with a knife to his neck remained calm, even continuing to shuffle the cards at a leisurely pace, his tone composed.

"Then let's see if your luck stays good until the exam is over." The man who had drawn his sword sheathed it and sat down again, threatening menacingly.

It's clear they've decided to settle things properly with the other party after the exam.

Su Wu watched all this, then sat down on the sofa in the corner, nestling herself into the soft, fluffy fabric.

"So, test takers can't kill other test takers after all..."

"How come I remember Hisoka killing a lot of examinees?" he pondered thoughtfully.

Hisoka later passed the exam.

In other words, if it goes undetected, there's no problem.

After all, the Hunter Exam is inherently dangerous.

"Anyone want to play cards with me?" he lazily raised his hand.

No one paid any attention.

That's quite normal; among these thugs, who would enjoy playing with children?

"Is anyone going to the training room? I can be your sparring partner." Su Wu asked again, unsurprisingly.

Finally, someone responded.

It seems there are more fighters than fighters. Well, that makes sense, since they've all come to participate in the Hunter Exam.

"Are you serious, kid? You're not even qualified to be a sparring partner." The man who responded to Su Wu's question had very well-developed biceps and didn't like to wear clothes properly, deliberately showing off his muscles.

The opponent's fist and biceps were bigger than Su Wu's head.

Coincidentally, I also think you guys aren't even qualified to be sparring partners; you're not even one percent as strong as West Germany.

But since we're all idle anyway, let's temporarily give you the same sparring partner status as West Germany.

"You'll know once you try." The white-haired, blue-eyed boy was slumped in the sofa, seemingly having great difficulty even getting up, and his voice was lazy with a hint of amusement.

"Hmph, let's go." The man was the first to walk out of the entertainment room.

Su Wu also left the sofa, yawning as she followed behind the man.

Behind Su Wu followed other examinees who were eager to see a good show.

Although the airship is spacious, the space available for candidates is limited. Especially after dividing it into entertainment rooms, restaurants, lounges, medical rooms, and a private area that only examiners and professional hunters can enter, the space available for candidates to use as training rooms becomes even more limited.

Therefore, it is impossible for each person to have their own training room. All candidates share a training room, so this shared training room can accommodate dozens of people for training at the same time.

When Su Wu and the others arrived, there were already other people in the training room.

As soon as the door to the training room was opened, the sound of fists colliding with flesh could be heard from inside.

This shows that the training room has good sound insulation.

Su Wu stepped into the training room, which was fully equipped with training equipment, including wooden stakes and sandbags.

Inside, people were training in scattered groups, while others were training one-on-one.

The blonde girl with the bob haircut, named Maro, was also doing one-on-one training. Well, she played a very important role in the training—a punching bag.

Even though their life energy levels were roughly the same, they were completely dominated by the other person.

Indeed, calling her "Maluo" is more appropriate.

"Watch closely, he might end up like you." The man with particularly large biceps raised his chin and looked disdainfully at the scene of the one-sided beating, saying to Su Wu.

"Ah, is that so?" The white-haired, blue-eyed boy curled the corners of his mouth, his smile carrying a hint of the devil.
