Reborn in HXH: I Plundered Infinite Traits Chapter 98: Packing in Advance? Thanks

[Congratulations on successfully copying traits [Hell's Ear] (Blue), [Sonata of Darkness] (Grey)]

[Ding! You possess [Super Intuition] (Red) and [Super Five Senses] (Gold). [Hell's Ear] (Blue) is automatically shattered and absorbed]

[Ding! [Sonata of Darkness] (Grey) is a cursed trait. You may choose to keep it without using it, or shatter it. Keeping this trait will result in you being noticed by an unknown existence. Please choose.]

A system notification sound, akin to heavenly music, rang out in Riku's mind.

"Keep it."

Riku rely pondered for a mont before directly making his choice.

This was the first ti he had seen this special type of cursed trait.

Moreover, the fact that possessing this trait would lead to being noticed by an unknown existence was truly sowhat unexpected.

But looking at lody before him, he could presu so information. Even that so-called unknown existence inevitably lacked the strength to cross ti and space to arrive before him.

Otherwise, lody couldn't still be alive.

Or rather, even if the opponent crossed over, they wouldn't gain any advantage in front of him.

But in reality, this didn't prevent Riku from treating this trait as a special dium.

Or a key to opening a brand new dungeon.

The unknown is always fascinating.

Perhaps when he becos interested soday, he can sense the opponent's existence through this trait, thereby entering a new dungeon.

"C-Captain... I lost..."

lody looked at Riku with so awe.

Riku's speed was simply too fast; there was no opportunity to react at all. The two sides were completely not on the sa level.

Not just her, even Kurapika standing nearby completely failed to clearly see Riku's specific movents just now.

"I can try to remove your curse for you, but I cannot guarantee that I will definitely be able to do it."

Riku suddenly spoke.

His words instantly made lody's eyes brighten, and she even began to tremble with excitent. If this sentence ca from anyone else's mouth, lody would absolutely not believe it.

Because after being cursed by this Sonata of Darkness, she had sought out quite a few people, even including so powerhouses who similarly possessed Nen abilities.

But the other party all expressed powerlessness regarding these curses on her.

Even if so expressed they could do it, they ultimately turned out to be nothing more than swindlers.

But this sentence ca from Riku's mouth. Towards Riku, lody already had heartfelt awe and trust.

The opponent's strength far exceeded hers. If he truly wanted to do sothing disadvantageous to her, there was absolutely no need to beat around the bush like this.

"It doesn't matter, Captain... If you are interested in the curse on my body, you can cast your abilities at will. But you must be careful, because I turned into this appearance precisely after listening to the performance of this flute. I hope these things on won't affect you."

lody was sowhat worried.

She wasn't worried about herself, but about Riku.

She already understood that she was almost incurable. The greatest goal of her life was to find a thod to break this thing.

"Close your eyes."

Riku said, placing his hand on the center of her brow.

lody nervously closed her eyes. Her heart, which was originally dead as ashes, now had a ripple of emotion. If anyone else had told her there was hope of lifting her curse, she naturally wouldn't have believed it.

But before her was Riku; deep down, she still had a strong desire.

Kurapika also curiously widened her eyes.

"Dedicated to the Yato God, purify thy soul, discard thy impurities of blinking, mortal heart returns to nothingness, a soul of clarity, sincerity, and uprightness to pray for soul shaving, to atone for thy transgressions—Heal!"

Riku began his incantation.

This was entirely an incantation he had seen in an ani.

Possessing the Conjured Chant ability, Riku could use the conjuration and materialization of incantations, along with the concepts in his mind, to directly conjure the corresponding effects. However, the specific effect would be determined based on various factors.

Amidst Kurapika's astonished gaze, a peculiar hexagram magic circle appeared beneath lody's feet.

Subsequently, her body was enveloped in a faint green light.

"So comfortable... this... what is this?"

Feeling an incredible comfort all over her body, like the sensation of soaking in a hot spring, lody couldn't help but open her eyes. She was then surprised to see the green light surrounding her body.

At this mont, Riku, falling into lody's gaze, was like a heavenly deity.

The opponent was saving her.

Like a god bestowing blessings upon a mortal.

At this mont... these thoughts surfaced automatically without any reason.

"lody?!!"

Kurapika suddenly exclaid. Her voice startled lody, who then surprisingly saw that her own body was actually beginning to change.

Long hair rapidly grew from her forrly bald, diterranean-style head, and her mouse-like face was returning to its forr normality.

This sloppy, short, ugly girl was actually transforming into a beautiful, sweet, and tall young woman!!

Much more beautiful than a young miss like Neon!

Sweet, pure, stunning!

Kurapika even looked a bit dazed. She never dread that the young girl who usually looked exceptionally ugly would actually be so beautiful.

If her own eyes were one of the Seven Most Beautiful Colors in the mortal realm, then this young girl before her was absolutely a pearl of the world.

"M-my body!!"

It was still the familiar voice, but at this mont, the owner of this voice had beco a very beautiful young girl.

lody looked at her own body in incredible surprise: slender, fair fingers like jade, smooth skin, and smooth, black hair like silk.

Everything seed to have returned.

Tears couldn't help but well up in her eyes, and then stread down continuously.

After being cursed by the Sonata of Darkness, she didn't know how many sleepless nights she had endured, how many nights she had cried alone.

She originally wanted to end her life, but the inner strength within her made her persist, wanting to find a way to lift it all.

So even bearing such an ugly face, lody still never gave up on her inner dream.

Even in the days after being cursed, her heart grew stronger and stronger, firr and firr.

She originally thought she seemingly had no hope of restoring her original appearance in this life, but at least this was a path she wanted to pursue in her life.

But now, in front of Riku...

She couldn't understand how Riku had managed to make that peculiar hexagram magic circle appear, and then the curses on her body seed to have been dispelled.

"Oh? You are very beautiful, lody."

Even as a transmigrator, Riku couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

This ugliest, shortest, bald young girl lody, after returning to her original appearance, was actually so beautiful.

"Ah! Thank you... Captain... th-thank you so much!"

lody was moved to tears. She couldn't help but stand on her tiptoes and lean close to Riku. Unable to control her emotions, she lightly pecked Riku's cheek, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Pink, soft lips, carrying a faint sweet scent like cherry blossoms.

One could imagine that this young girl before him, before being cursed, inevitably also had boundless glory and probably a vast number of suitors.

It was also hard to imagine how such a clearly beautiful young girl would turn into an ugly monster, and then still have the strong heart to seek a way to break the curse.

"lody, this is only a temporary lifting. With my current ability, I cannot completely cure the curse on your body. Based on the current situation, there's a high probability it can be suppressed for twelve hours. In other words, after dawn, this suppressive power will disappear, and you will return to your original appearance."

"However, I have set up a circulating Nen structure within your body. At night, you will revert back to this appearance."

"If you want to truly completely lift the curse, I'm afraid we need to find the guy who cast the spell on you."

Riku sighed with emotion.

When using the Noragami incantation, he felt the resistance from the opponent's curse.

If the guy who cast the source of the curse couldn't be resolved, it would be impossible to completely cure this situation; he could only increase the suppression ti.

"This is already very good, Captain. For , this is already a very wonderful thing! Regardless, really... really thank you very much!! Captain!!"

lody's beautiful eyes shone brightly as she looked at Riku, her heart filled with unprecedented excitent.

Having half the day to return to her original appearance was already an unexpected pleasant surprise for her.

Even if she could only recover for 10 minutes a day, it would already be the greatest satisfaction in her life for lody. Twelve hours far exceeded her expectations.

In the future, she would probably only be able to beco a Princess of the Night.

"Truly beautiful, lody... you should be the most beautiful girl I have ever seen."

Kurapika did not stint on her praise.

"Alright, you guys stay here for now. The auction over there seems to be starting. Pay attention to the movents, and also pay attention to safety."

Riku suddenly revealed a faint smile at the corners of his mouth.

Lifting lody's curse was, for her, rely a small test of his ability.

The Conjured Chant (Purple) ability was indeed very good.

But now.

It seed those guys from the Phantom Troupe had already mingled among the guests, and the auction was about to begin.

Riku slowly left the rooftop.

His figure disappeared from where he stood.

Auction venue.

Wealthy tycoons, nobles, and powerhouses from all over the world gathered here, because this was the highest-level auction in the Hunter world. Many precious items had a chance to be found here.

Dalzoll was patrolling the auction venue, his expression incredibly stern.

"The number of people attending the auction this ti is quite a bit more than last ti, and those participating are basically prominent figures within organizations. I've even seen so mafia bosses arrive at the venue personally. Captain... you absolutely must protect !"

He felt sowhat nervous.

Because Neon's prophetic poem inferred that so problems might occur at this auction. As the vice-captain, he would inevitably bear the brunt of it.

Back door.

Baise, Basho, and the others were stationed here.

"Aren't these the Nostrade family's bodyguards? They truly look like a bunch of small fry, actually being arranged at the back to slack off."

"Shh, keep your voice down, you'll be heard."

Several patrolling bodyguards couldn't help but grumble.

Guarding the back door was the most leisurely job, and also the matter with the lowest risk factor. They were incredibly envious.

Baise felt sowhat itchy. If it were according to so of her past habits, she would have directly used her ability to control the opponents.

But now.

She felt she needed to control her ability, even sowhat loathing her own ability.

Because it required... kissing to take effect!

Back then, the Captain disliked her precisely because of this. If she hadn't been like that, perhaps... the Captain might have...

Baise felt sowhat flustered.

"If you guys keep spouting bullshit here, be careful or I'll set the dogs to bite you!"

Squala commanded a few hounds, his expression unfriendly.

Basho also glared at these people.

These patrolling bodyguards were frightened by the fierce dogs and repeatedly backed away, fleeing.

"I wonder how things are on the Captain's side. I hope this auction goes peacefully."

"Peacefully is impossible. Every year, an auction of this level will have so hiccups, but they are all within a controllable range. After all, many who co here are mafia bosses. So friction is unavoidable."

"Sigh..."

The group discussed.

And at this mont.

Auction underground vault.

A thin, emaciated man walked in unimpeded.

"Lord!"

Upon seeing this person, the guards responsible here successively made way.

Because he was one of the famous Shadow Beasts, the strongest combat force under the Ten Dons!

"Mm, continue to guard this place well. Open the door."

The thin man's lips curled up slightly, revealing a lofty expression as he glanced at these guards, and then took out his personal token of authority.

A black token, strikingly bearing a large character written with bold, sweeping strokes.

Owl!

This was also his title!

The people from the Ten Dons would understand everything upon seeing this; he was soone they couldn't afford to offend.

As expected.

Upon seeing this token and the person himself, the expressions of the guards present changed slightly. They didn't dare to et his gaze at all, trembling all over as they stepped aside.

Owl walked unimpeded to the front of the vault, and then took out a key from his pocket.

In reality, yesterday, after receiving Neon's prophetic poem, these mafia bosses, including Light Nostrade, unanimously agreed that all the items in these vaults should be transferred away in advance, just in case.

Because the things ntioned in the prophetic poem were not good!

So Owl was arranged to co over. In reality, not many valuable items would appear at this auction, because all the valuable items were in this vault and would all be taken away by him.

Clack!

The vault door, a full ter thick, was slowly opened. Owl walked directly inside, and then ordered those guards to close this heavy vault door.

This was a vault door forged from a special alloy.

Even if Netero, known as the world's strongest, arrived, breaking it open would absolutely not be a matter of a short while.

The security factor absolutely reached the highest level.

But what Owl didn't notice was that a peculiar little mosquito landed on the back of his clothes and followed him in.
