Hunter x Hunter: Call Me Master Inventor

Chapter 148 The outside world is no longer dark~

"But the son of Linos will never return—"

Kuroro paused for a moment, then continued, "And there's also a rumor in the documents."

"Linnos also suffered severe injuries after this attack."

"Pretty much, they've also lost the ability to have children."

She watched helplessly as her son died tragically before her eyes, then suffered a severe attack and was rendered infertile—

Even if he is a wealthy person who has made a name for himself in the business world.

It's really hard to withstand such a huge blow all of a sudden.

"But subsequent reports said that Linus had emerged from the shadows."

"Moreover, I am moved by my own experiences, and I miss and grieve for my son."

"The Foundation was established in memory of him and to help children around the world live better lives; he single-handedly spearheaded the development of the Future of Children Foundation."

"And because of these experiences, he has been very successful in the cross-industry field of children's products."

"Many consumers sympathize with Linus's experience and believe that he genuinely wants to do something for children because of this."

"That's why the Linus consortium actually thrived and grew into a behemoth in just a few years."

"It can be said that, thanks to this experience, the business empire of Lisnos has once again taken another step forward."

She lost her beloved son, nearly died herself, and suffered deep and irreparable trauma.

Such hardship did not defeat him; instead, it rallied him to continue challenging life.

Furthermore, having experienced the pain of losing a child, he considered the future of children and established a foundation dedicated to their well-being.

Listen to this story, listen to this story, how inspiring and positive it is.

In other words—

This is such a politically correct story, so supported by the upper class and loved and sympathized with by the lower class.

The world kisses me with pain, but I return it with a song.

To prevent other children from experiencing what I went through, this is truly an excellent and positive role model!

It was official support, as well as public goodwill and backing, that allowed Linos to regain its footing.

But...

Judging from the scene that Lennox presented in this secret passage, it doesn't seem to be what the official narrative portrayed him to be, nor what he himself had shown.

"People are easily stimulated after experiencing major changes, especially setbacks and painful changes."

Von Clay said slowly, "The biggest difference between humans and other creatures is that humans are too intelligent and have too many emotions."

Similarly, the changes between the brain and the mind are unpredictable.

"This also means that the malice they possess often exceeds everyone's imagination."

"Once the bottom line and malice are crossed, anything is possible."

Anyway, judging from von Clay's perspective...

From the very beginning, they were able to carve out a niche for themselves in the business world and become extremely wealthy.

Von Clay didn't think these kinds of guys could be good people at all.

Especially in the Hunter world, a more dangerous world where people's minds are more twisted and insane.

A guy who can gain a foothold and make a name for himself in such a world~

Von Clay was more inclined to believe that he was not a kind-hearted person to begin with.

So after such a change~

The possibility of it falling into an even darker abyss of hell is perhaps greater.

It's much more practical than suddenly becoming a benevolent, compassionate person who considers the well-being of children all over the world.

Well, he lost his son, but instead of turning to the dark side, he still thinks about other children.

This doesn't sound realistic at all.

"The motive and the cause are as obvious as they come."

After listening to the whole thing, the knight-errant remained silent for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

"But none of this should be used as an excuse for him to impose his twisted, grief-stricken, and abnormal psychology on others."

Von Clay looked at the knight with some surprise.

This doesn't sound like something a future member of the Phantom Troupe would say.

The line, "I'm talking about Beast King Blue."

Seemingly sensing the subtle gaze of von Clay, the knight raised his head and gave a forced smile.

He previously served as the sea shark for "Beast King Blue" in the "Beast Squad".

This character is clearly on the side of justice, and the events he experiences and the lines he speaks are all part of this.

There just happened to be a monster-man who suffered unfair and inhuman treatment because of himself.

Then they become cynical and develop an extremely resentful and distorted mentality towards the world.

Therefore, he has always wanted to do things that would destroy the world.

That "monster man" was so similar to the current Lysnos.

"The mere exposure of these images and scenes is enough to declare to the world the true nature of this guy and his conglomerate."

Kuroro regained his composure and then looked at Bon Clay, asking, "What should we do next, Commander?"

"Is there even a question? Let's get started!"

Bon Clay decisively ordered, "Now that we've found evidence of their offenses against Meteor City..."

"And it's so vile, so contrary to the public order and good morals of this world."

"It's about time we removed him from this 'world online' game."

As night fell, moonlight spilled over Yorknew City, giving it a faint glow.

However, this city doesn't seem to like this kind of lighting.

The dazzling lights and vibrant nightlife of the city alone are enough to make this city a bustling metropolis.

The office building where the "Children's Future" Foundation is located.

"You used to love nights like this and the flashing neon lights the most~"

Linos stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the dazzling, beautiful scenery outside.

He swirled the wine glass in his hand, its crimson luster reflecting the bustling world outside.

All of this seemed completely out of place for the old man, Linus.

The bright, multicolored light shone down, casting a long shadow of Lysnos.

"In the past, you liked to hide in my shadow."

"Then peek out and look at the world with curiosity and joy."

"She would always tell me that the outside world was so dark and that I was scared."

"Now, the outside world is no longer dark, but you are no longer here, Palias—"
