Chapter 61 Ugly Baby Get

A day later, on the same sofa in the same corner, Su Wu was alone once again taking stock of her assets.

"Finally, we've raised a billion." Su Wu spread her hands, leaned back, and couldn't help but sigh.

Although it hasn't been long, I still feel that earning this billion is really not easy.

"System, I want to spend money. Give me Ugly Baby." Without saying a word, he bought Ugly Baby.

The billion dollars that had just been received didn't even stay in his hands for more than a minute.

[The ugly baby has been distributed.]

A cursed spirit, about 1.3 meters long, with a blackish-purple body, segmented body, bulging eyes, and a somewhat foolish appearance, resembling a large caterpillar, appeared on the open ground next to Su Wu.

But no one around saw it.

"Come on, come on." Su Wu patted her leg at the suddenly appearing Ugly Baby, signaling for the other to climb up.

The cursed spirit, resembling a caterpillar, straightened its upper body, its enormous head and bulging, blank eyes staring at the white-haired boy. Its sausage-like mouthparts writhed and opened—"Mom...Mom..."

It feels so familiar; no matter who you call "Mom," it's still "Mom"!

It feels so strange to be called "Mom".

But it's an ugly baby after all. Although it's ugly and clumsy, it's very useful.

Moreover, Ugly Baby behaves the same way in the original comic, so let's just tolerate it for now.

"Alright, come on up quickly," Su Wu urged.

Ugly Baby moved slowly, crawling little by little onto the boy's body, and circled around him twice.

Its tail is wrapped around its waist and abdomen, and its head rests on its shoulders.

Just like in an anime, one day you encounter a tyrant.

Su Wu picked up the backpack that was placed to the side with one hand, and with the other hand, she pried open the mouth of Ugly Baby on her shoulder and stuffed the backpack into its mouth.

"Gurgle gurgle—" the cursed spirit made a swallowing sound.

"Good boy, good boy." Su Wu patted Chou Bao's head like she was patting a dog's head.

He stood up and left the corner. If someone were to focus their energy on their eyes—that is, to observe carefully—they would see that he was surrounded by a dark purple, ominous energy.

"Speaking of which, now that I'm like this, do other people think I'm a vengeful ability user...?" Su Wu thought to herself as she walked out.

Of course, this is on the premise that the other party is aware of the resentment.

Nen is life energy, while resentment is the opposite; if you really want to compare them, they're similar to curse power...

Resentment seems to be the power of anger or hatred? Curse power also originates from negative emotions...

However, the ability to harbor resentment is only a setting in the movie; it's unknown whether it actually exists in the real Hunter world.

If so, then one could indeed call oneself a person with the ability to vent resentment.

"This, this..." He arrived at the Sky Arena's merchandise area and casually pointed to an entire shelf of items.

"I'll take all of these. Have them delivered to my room," he casually instructed the staff at the Sky Arena.

After all, it wouldn't be appropriate to stuff something into Ugly Baby's mouth in front of other people.

To the average person, it might seem like he's just stuffing things into the void.

"Okay, sir." The staff member nodded dutifully, still with a smile on his face.

Clothes, food, toiletries...

After having Ugly Baby, Su Wu became like a nouveau riche, indulging in a shopping spree, or rather... after fulfilling the condition of having a personal space, the hoarding instinct deep within the rabbit's soul was awakened.

After buying a whole bunch of things to ensure that he wouldn't be starving even if he were stranded on a desert island one day, he happily patted Ugly Baby's big head again.

Upon returning to the room, he saw Maro standing at the door.

Despite his bruised and swollen face, he couldn't hide his excitement.

"Sir! I know how to develop my abilities now!" he said excitedly.

"Look—" He stretched out his right hand, and suddenly frost appeared in the air.

"Ice...?" Su Wu raised an eyebrow.

You really are... the Rimei of the Hunter x Hunter world.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​using ice?" the white-haired, blue-eyed boy asked, seemingly interested.

"Because I played against a player from the 200th floor today..." Maro scratched his face, looking somewhat dejected.

After learning to use Nen and being able to attack proactively, matches below the 200th floor became very easy for him.

Today is his first competition on the 200th floor.

"The opponent is a guy who uses a spinning top..."

"At first, I got hit by the opponent's spinning tops many times and couldn't even get close to them. Then I thought, it would be great if those spinning tops didn't move."

"At first I actually wanted to use cement, but I didn't know how to do it, so I thought of freezing the spinning top..."

"That way they can't move..." Maro shared his thought process during the competition.

"And the result? Did you win?" Su Wu interrupted impatiently, asking directly about the outcome.

"...I lost." Maro lowered his head in frustration, his shoulders slumping.

His idea was good, and that's what he did, and he did succeed, but as for the outcome of the battle...

His skill was enough to freeze the opponent's spinning top, but when he got close to the opponent to attack, the opponent actually started spinning like a top...

However, his ability was insufficient to freeze the opponent.

In short, we lost the first game.

"...As expected." Su Wu said knowingly, "I knew you would lose, so I bet on you to lose."

Maro looked somewhat dazed: ...Ah...should I say that he truly lives up to his reputation as the master? He's incredibly insightful, or should I say that I'm just too useless? The master never seemed to think he could win...

"Don't worry, don't worry. Not long ago you were beaten up by a student who couldn't read, but now you've reached the 200th floor. It won't be long before you beat these guys down too. Then you'll know what they are—" Su Wu waved her hand dismissively and casually raised the corners of her lips.

"Super weak, huh?" He lowered his eyebrows, his eyes full of contempt.

So handsome...

Such an arrogant and self-righteous attitude! Truly befitting an adult! So cool!

"Yes!" Maro nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling.

"Let's go. From now on, you just need to continue to find ways to develop your abilities," Su Wu instructed calmly.

"There's no need to stay here any longer." He went into the room and stuffed something into Ugly Baby's mouth.

"Aren't you going to stay?" Maro asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Because we can't make any more money here..." Su Wu's expression was somewhat subtle.

When he went to place his bet today, the staff member behind the window said to him something like, "I hope I won't see you again next time. There's a limit to how much you can cheat by relying on your skills."

The other party probably couldn't see through Six Eyes' ability; they likely thought his Nen ability had this effect...

After the other person finished speaking, they even drew a simple sketch in front of him: a little man with white hair, blue eyes, and black tattoos. Then they stuck it on the wall next to the window.

It also says, "This person is not allowed to approach."

In other words, he was blacklisted by the staff at that window.

It was clearly not an official blacklist, but rather the personal action of a staff member, since even the notice was drawn on-site by the staff member.

The staff at Sky Arena have so much freedom.

I even saw an elevator operator beat up two guys who had terrible conversation skills but were trying to chat me up just the other day...
