Association Square.
After receiving their respective licenses, everyone gathered here. After all... as examinees of the sa term, it could be considered a kind of fate.
"What a pity we couldn't see that Examiner Kenpachi. I heard this guy beat up both Hisoka and Hanzo... Did he really just let us pass directly? Kurapika."
Leorio still couldn't quite believe it. He was directly knocked down during the exam, yet he smoothly obtained his Hunter License~ This was simply too lucky.
"...You could say that."
Kurapika stayed silent for a mont and nodded his head.
"Examiner Kenpachi..."
Gon-kun's gaze was complex, because he had also heard the legendary stories about this examiner from others.
Especially the battle traces left in the training ground, they were simply too shocking to behold.
It could be said that their group was able to obtain the Hunter License entirely because that examiner went easy on them.
But no one was familiar with that examiner, so why would the other party choose to go easy?
Gon-kun thought about it for a whole day and still couldn't figure it out.
"Riku-nii! Riku-nii! What did the old man want with you?"
Seeing Riku walk out, Gon-kun and the others also curiously surrounded him.
"He briefed on so related matters. By the way, Gon-kun, I have decided to make a trip to Killua's ho. He should have been taken back."
"Yay! That is great!! Kurapika, Leorio! Do you guys want to go together? Let's go together!!"
Gon-kun instantly cheered with excitent.
"Alright, I just got my Hunter License, and I am planning to travel around the world anyway!"
"I am also free for now, so let's go together."
Leorio and Kurapika both agreed.
"Waaah! Great! Killua, we are coming for you. Let's quickly check where Killua's ho is and how to get there!"
Gon-kun was incredibly excited.
"Everyone... um, Mr. Riku."
Suddenly.
nchi walked over, her pretty face slightly red as she looked at Riku, and then at everyone: "If it is your friend Killua Zoldyck, he should be at Kukuroo Mountain. If you take an airship, you can arrive in three days..."
"Um, Mr. Riku, I hope you rember our previous agreent. This is my Hunter ID number, you can contact on the Hunter Network anyti."
She wrote down a number for Riku.
"And mine, Mr. Riku. Congratulations on becoming a Pro Hunter. We will be colleagues from now on."
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
Buhara and Satotz both ca over to congratulate him. Riku had left a very deep impression on them.
And his luck was also very good, not having encountered that monster-like Examiner Kenpachi.
"Okay... thank you, I will rember it, nchi, Buhara, Satotz."
Riku received them one by one and smiled. Only then did nchi and the others bid their farewells.
"T-that, Lord Riku! This is my contact information! No matter what, please definitely give a chance to repay you..."
Ponzu ran over, panting heavily, her face burning red.
"No, no, no, it was the Lord who helped pass the third phase. For this kindness... thank you, Lord. If there is a chance, please definitely co visit my city." Ponzu shook her head like a rattle drum.
Bodoro didn't show much reaction. After chatting with Ponzu for a few sentences, Riku also parted ways directly.
This young girl seed to be constantly reluctant to part with Riku.
"Wow, Riku-nii, I feel like Ponzu likes you!"
Gon-kun smirked mischievously.
"Hurry up and go book the tickets, otherwise there will not be any left if we are late. Pack the things you want, and let's go to Kukuroo Mountain."
Riku tapped Gon-kun's head, and the three of them directly booked the tickets.
Three days later.
With the Hunter License, everything went surprisingly smoothly. In any city and any place, they could receive VIP-level treatnt. Many services were even provided for free, including this airship ride, as well as the tour bus arriving at Kukuroo Mountain.
"Dear passengers, this is the Kukuroo Mountain where the notorious Zoldyck family resides. It is said that their lair is surrounded by a sea of trees, located on a rocky volcano 3,722 ters above sea level, and no one has ever seen their true faces."
"The Zoldyck family has a total of 10 mbers, naly..."
Along the way, the pretty tour guide lady kept chattering non-stop. Eventually, the tour bus stopped in front of the so-called 'Testing Gate'.
Which was layer upon layer of massive stone doors.
This was equivalent to the mountain gate of the Zoldyck estate. If one wanted to reach their manor, they had to pass through this mountain gate to be qualified, but ordinary people could not even pass through it themselves.
This location was still a very long way from the Zoldyck family's manor.
"It is all just a bluff! Do not block the way! No one has ever seen the people of this phantom-like assassination family, and so people even offered one hundred million to buy their photos! To put it bluntly, these are all just rumors. In my opinion, it is all just to scare people."
A tough-looking, burly man directly pushed the tour guide lady aside, then strode over to the guard booth next to the 'Testing Gate'. With a bang, he tore off the door of the booth and dragged the old security guard out from inside.
This burly man didn't have the habit of wasting words with the old security guard. He directly snatched the key from the other party's hands, and then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he strode over, opened the small door next to it, and walked in.
But the next second.
Only the roaring and howling of a ferocious beast, as well as the burly man's screams, could be heard coming from behind the door.
A cleanly eaten corpse was thrown out, and that massive, ferocious, hairy paw still had minced at and bloodstains on it.
This scene instantly frightened the spectating tourists silly. They did not even care about the tour guide lady's calls and fled in panic one by one.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, how truly high-profile. But this old guy still likes to play the pig to eat the tiger."
Riku took everything in.
His gaze turned toward that old security guard.
Na: Zoldyck Family Security Guard Zebro Traits: [Colossal Strength] (Purple), [Disguise] (Blue), [Combat] (Blue), [Cowardice] (Blue), etc.
This old man, whose strength was clearly above that of the burly man, pretended not to be his match and deliberately let the other party snatch the key from his hands.
Then, logically, the other party beca food for the monster wolfhound raised inside the manor.
As expected, guys who managed to reach this level were not simple.
"Sigh, I told him not to enter through this door, but he just wouldn't listen. Now that this has happened, I also feel very regretful. In fact, people have been constantly coming here to throw their lives away over the years. If you are also planning to go in, I advise you to head back down the mountain."
The old man sighed, climbed up from the ground, and patted the dust off his body.
"The situation is worse than imagined. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for us to get in."
Leorio had an ugly expression.
"But we have already made it this far. If we give up now..."
"Killua might still be suffering inside. He told before that he didn't want to return here."
Kurapika and Gon-kun were extrely worried, their gazes unanimously turning to Riku.
Riku smiled faintly, looked at this 'Oscar-winning' security guard, and calmly spoke: "This is not how you treat guests. Did Illumi not tell you that he invited ?"
