On the airship, the door of the more comfortable first-class cabin opened. A skinny tiger with pale fur came out shakily.
Tsezguerra and the bodyguard captain on the airship were surprised. This tiger was brought here by Liam and the others. It was fine when they boarded half an hour ago. Fat and strong. Smooth and supple hair. Looked so energetic. But why did it lose hundreds of pounds in a short period and become like this?
The scrawny tiger's tail was caught by a hand behind the cabin door. Dragged back forcefully. The door slammed shut again.
Tsezguerra and the others looked at each other. Asked forward, "Did something happen?"
Liam's voice came from the first-class cabin. "Oh, it's okay. We're playing games with it."
Is this called playing games?
The bodyguards in black suits complained silently. But these people were the boss's most distinguished guests. As long as they didn't dismantle the airship mid-air, they didn't bother to say anything. Just ignored the weak voice of the tiger coming from the closed door. Didn't see or hear.
There was strong aura coming from inside. What on earth were they doing to that harmless tiger? Tsezguerra thought to himself. Subconsciously holding down his intact arm.
As a One-Star Bounty Hunter of the Hunter Association, of course he recognized the person who boarded the plane with Liam and Shizuku at a glance. It was Biscuit Krueger, a Two-Star Gem Hunter.
This girl who looked like an eleven or twelve-year-old was actually a senior Hunter who may be older than himself. She was the disciple of Netero, the president of the Hunter Association
It wasn't strange that Biscuit and Liam and Shizuku were walking together. But it was very strange that she was hanging around them when they were practicing on weekdays. How come he couldn't encounter such a good thing when he was practicing before? With a master like Biscuit giving guidance from the side, no wonder Liam and Shizuku were so powerful at such a young age.
"That's wrong. That's not it!"
Liam sat on the floor. Looked at the skinny tiger.
Lumos's thin body surface, the aura surged uncertainly. Obviously, according to the reality standard of Conjuration, Lumos was extremely unqualified. Ordinary people could see something wrong with the naked eye. Moreover, Lumos also failed to conjure successfully. Probably didn't even count as Conjuration.
He looked at it and shook his head. "I asked you to conjure. How come you became thin? This isn't the same as the form we conceived..."
Lumos lowered his head. Heard two strange chirping sounds next to him. It turned out to be the little Jaku the rock sparrow. Seeing Lumos's unlucky look, it couldn't help but cover its wings and laugh.
"Don't laugh. Lumos is now considered half a Nen user now. What about you?" Liam reached out and frightened Jaku to flutter its wings and shift position. It landed on Shizuku's shoulder. Turned around and met Shizuku's eyes. Was frightened by the clear eyes that showed no emotion at all. Stumbled away. Landed on Bisky's outstretched fingertips.
The aura in Lumos's body surged twice. His body expanded like a balloon. Returning to its original strong physique weighing nearly a ton.
"This is Conjuration... right?" Liam looked at Lumos and groaned.
"Why do you always look at me?" Bisky stretched out her hand to push his head back. "Don't worry. The idea of conjuration is correct. But whether it can be done is unknown. Oh hahaha..." She covered her mouth with her small hands. Looking gloating.
"Aren't you staring at us today?" Liam continued to ponder.
Bisky smiled slightly. "Your standard are too high."
"It's impossible. I've already lowered my standards a lot. I've been struggling for two days. Shouldn't there be some progress?"
"That is, even after the standard were lowered, they still seemed too high." Bisky said. "I guess when you were practicing Nen yourself, you always felt that aura was an easy thing to use. Over time, you became less able to understand this feeling for ordinary people. What's more, this tiger is an animal. Not even a human being."
There was a sense of déjà vu as if being told "why not eat cake"... Liam had mixed feelings for a moment. Looked at Shizuku and thought: Well, Shizuku also has a small part of the responsibility! Her qualifications are also very high. "Hardly to blame" for his own cognitive misalignment.
Bisky said, "The practice of Nen should be done step by step. Starting from the basics. If you practice together in a hodgepodge, with a little bit of everything, only you can practice without problems. What kind of abilities or rules are attached to Conjuration ability? This must at least be considered after it's successfully conjured. And if this tiger wants to successfully conjure the tiger-striped skirt you conceived, it must start from the very basics. Gradually master Nen. Be proficient in using aura."
"Well, that makes sense..." Liam nodded repeatedly. Added, "That's called a tiger-striped skirt, not a little skirt."
Isn't it the same? Shizuku raised a question mark.
"Anyway, let's start with the first step of the Four Principles." Bisky raised a finger.
"Okay." Liam turned around. "Lumos, do you hear me? Use Ten!"
The Star Mark under Lumos's belly was activated in response. The naturally escaping aura from Lumos's body was immediately restrained. A stable "aura coating" quickly formed on its surface.
During the special training given by Liam to Lumos, time passed unknowingly. The airship crossed mountains and rivers. Unknown how far it flew. Finally began to descend in altitude. Shuttled through surging wind. Finally landed slowly in the vast courtyard of a strange sanatorium in a strange city.
Liam followed Tsezguerra and a group of bodyguards off the airship. In front of him was Lumos walking on cat steps. Accompanied by Shizuku and Bisky.
There was a whoosh above his head. A small gray shadow like a sharp arrow seemed to escape from a cage. The people in black who'd been waiting for a long time to pick up the plane were surprised in front of the courtyard. Several of them pulled out their pistols reflexively.
"It's just a little sparrow. Don't be so nervous." Liam said.
Boom!
Taking advantage of the crowd's strength, Jaku flew over. Staggered the leader of the few people who were picking up the plane. Swayed twice in the air triumphantly. Flew back to Liam's shoulder and squeaked. But was flicked away by Liam's finger.
Is this a little sparrow? The bodyguard who was caught off guard and almost hit his head rubbed his numb chest.
Battera, who came up from behind, patted his shoulder. Stepped out of the crowd. Walked to the front. Nodded to Tsezguerra and the others. Looked at Biscuit and Shizuku. Lumos who couldn't be ignored paused for a moment. Then looked at Liam.
Battera asked in a deep voice, "You are... the miracle doctor, 'Chaotic Good,' Mr. Liam."
Liam solemnly replied, "You are... the rich man who came to me specifically to spread his wealth, Mr. Battera."
Battera smiled bitterly. Said sincerely, "It's me. As long as Mr. Liam can save my lover, it doesn't matter if I spend all my wealth." His eyes were bloodshot. There were traces of water on his temples. Obviously these days he didn't sleep well. Washed his face with cold water before coming here. Made himself sober.
"That's what you said." Liam turned around. "I didn't force him. Okay, that's easy. Don't delay. Where is your lover?"
Battera cheered up. Quickly personally led the way for Liam and his party.
