Six-Eyed Sukuna, starting from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 44 The Fool, the Magician, and the Priestess (Please continue reading)

A corner of the forest.

Two figures, dressed in bizarre attire and sporting ram horns on their heads, stood by a lake, heads bowed as if peering through the water to the bottom.

"Still haven't found it, brother," the blonde girl said softly.

"Don't rush, we have plenty of time," the boy said in a low voice.

"What are you looking for?" The white-haired, blue-eyed boy suddenly appeared behind the two of them, peeking out from beside the boy like a ghost, and asked softly.

"Looking for treasure." The two non-human beings, maintaining their human forms, remained remarkably calm, seemingly unaware that such a close distance was somewhat excessive for normal social interaction, and answered in a composed tone.

"I thought you were looking for this." Su Wu casually tossed the bleating sheep to the girl.

"Ah, it's the little lamb, you're back." The girl easily caught the lamb, stroked the gentle creature, and spoke close to its ear.

The lamb bleated, and the girl nodded; the two seemed to be having a special conversation.

"Speaking of which, can I touch you?" Su Wu rested her chin on her index finger and thumb, observed the two non-humans with her six eyes for a long time, and finally asked her question with great curiosity.

Of course, as he asked the question, his hand had already poked and pinched the two people's faces.

Hmm, it's soft and doesn't feel much different from human touch.

Although it appears to be a dark, viscous substance, it looks and feels quite normal.

The two siblings reacted identically when their faces were poked and pinched. They were a little confused and curious, not knowing why the other person was doing this, but since there was no malice, they didn't care.

Seeing this, Su Wu withdrew her hand, feeling bored.

He had thought that non-humans would have some special feel to them, but they were surprisingly ordinary and uninteresting.

"Oh, right, there was that red-haired guy following you earlier, right? Did you fight him?" Su Wu asked the question she had wanted to ask at the beginning.

"Why did you fight him?" The younger sister, who was not human, adjusted her glasses and asked instinctively.

"Because it was troublesome for him to keep following us, we used some tricks to make him not notice us," the boy said with a smile.

Because of his strange attire, his smile also looked very eerie.

"Methods...? Ah..." Su Wu was both puzzled and understanding.

No wonder Hisoka looked so hungry; it turns out he failed to fight his target.

However, the other party's slightly manic state...

It's a bit like his true nature acting out, but it's also a bit like he was subjected to special treatment. It's hard to say, since he didn't even give Hisoka a glance. Unless he looks at him more closely with his Six Eyes.

It might indeed be related to the methods those two non-humans used.

"What are your names?" Su Wu was still somewhat curious about non-humans.

"Alice." "Aimee."

The brother and sister answered at the same time, like good students answering a teacher's question.

"Do you also need a hunter's license?" Su Wu asked, somewhat puzzled.

Do non-humans need a hunter license? No, you have to go to the Hunter Association to get a license after passing the Hunter Exam, right? Aren't these two non-humans afraid of being recognized if they go to the Hunter Association?

There should still be strong members in the Hunter Association.

"We came here to find something, and their airship happened to be picking people up, and it just so happens to be the same destination we're going to," replied the older brother, Aimei.

"Ah, a rideshare." Su Wu replied knowingly.

I knew it! That's why the Hunter License is so attractive, drawing even non-humans to take the exam.

Oh, so you were hitchhiking. That makes sense.

"Where did you come from?" Su Wu wondered.

A non-human being who can maintain a human form, well...

Suddenly, I thought of the so-called forbidden area in the Hunter world—the Dark Continent.

Did these two run away from there?

"A fishing village on a remote island," Aimei replied after thinking for a while.

They couldn't even recall the name of the fishing village.

"Because my brother and I were drifting in the sea, we were pulled up by the people over there..." Alice explained with a puzzled tone, seemingly not understanding why the people there would pull them ashore.

"...Pfft—" Su Wu couldn't help but laugh.

The idea of ​​two non-humans drifting along the sea is actually quite funny.

What's even funnier is that they don't understand why the people in the fishing village would salvage it.

That's because people mistook them for a young boy and girl in distress!

The people in the fishing village probably only thought they had rescued two human children, and had no idea that they had actually caught two strange creatures.

But drifting at sea and stuff...

Is it because strange things all like the sea?

For example, strangely shaped deep-sea creatures, or ancient gods sleeping in the ocean...

You all seem to have a grudge against the sea, don't you?

Forget it, I don't want to ask them where they live.

We might get an even stranger answer, one we've never heard of before, one that doesn't even exist on the existing mainland Chinese forum.

"Alright, you guys continue looking for things." After asking what she wanted to ask, Su Wu waved her hand casually and disappeared from the spot.

The two non-human beings naturally turned their heads and resumed searching for their target.

……

While using her six eyes to observe the surroundings and make sure there was no danger, Su Wu found a place to sit down.

"It's time for our daily luck test again." He raised his hand and stretched it out into the air.

The wheel of law is set in motion.

A spinning wheel appears in the air.

A moment later, three cards appeared in his hand.

Su Wu lazily looked down.

[The Fool Reversed] [The High Priestess Reversed] [The Magician Reversed]

"All three are debuff cards?" Su Wu sighed.

Looks like I'm having the worst luck today.

We need to find someone to use it within half an hour, otherwise it will end up being used on himself.

【The Fool Reversed】Effect: Disorder.

【Reversed High Priestess】Effect: Mental instability.

【Reversed Magician】Effect: Weakens willpower.

"Things involving order, rules, spirit, and will all sound a bit mystical, and we don't even know what the actual effects would be..." Su Wu twirled the cards between her fingers and simply sat still.

He planned to wait here for Hisoka to come to him, since Hisoka wouldn't give up once he set his sights on someone.

While you're at it, throw all three cards to your opponent and see what the effect is.

"Behave yourself." He patted the restless trees behind him, warning them not to move, and leaned against the tree trunk, keeping a close eye on the surroundings.

Six Eyes sensed that the life energy entity representing Hisoka was rapidly approaching.

Because they didn't know his exact location, the other party went on a killing spree along the way.

Human beings in this forest are disappearing one after another.

He seemed determined to find him even if it meant killing everyone in the forest.

"I told you I was incredibly charming, Hisoka couldn't resist me at all," Su Wu recalled her earlier thoughts and couldn't help but sigh.

That's why they skipped the exam and came straight after him.

Suozi: Little Apple, hum hum hum, Little Apple.

Wuwuzi: Click to see Hisoka go crazy for me.
