Inside the pitch-black Passageway.

The monster, resembling a dried-up corpse, held a [Translation Konjac] in its hand, its eerie eyes scrutinizing it, seemingly disregarding everyone present.

On the field, no one dared to move.

The opponent's casual display of skill stunned everyone.

Jin, who had the deepest understanding of Nen, narrowed his eyes and stared intently at his palm.

They actually... moved the thing in my hand remotely!?

His brain was racing!

From countless speculations and details, we can determine the limitations and rules of the opponent's abilities...

After all.

If the other party can truly move any object within a certain range at will, such an ability is absolutely terrifying!

Doesn't that mean...?

Could someone easily remove their heart from their chest cavity if they wanted to?

How can we fight like this?

For any carbon-based organism, losing its heart is almost certainly fatal.

Despite trying her best not to think that the other party might possess such terrifying abilities.

But this is the battle of Nen users!

Information about Nen Abilities is important and essential.

Moreover... the other party is a special being.

These terrifying beings, which survived in the Ruins the Gandor Dynasty thousands of years ago, are monsters and cannot be judged using the methods of conventional Nen users.

This is simply... enough to make anyone hesitant to gamble!

"Whoosh!"

A rainbow-colored Rabbit phantom instantly enveloped Jin.

Jin was seen muttering something to himself.

The next second, the rainbow-colored Rabbit phantom instantly split into three, enveloping him, Netero, and Ian respectively.

This is the limit of what he can do!

By utilizing the connection between the Game World and the Rainbow Rabbit in his hand, a projection layer is constructed between the real and virtual Game Spaces.

This is an almost unbelievable high-level method of using Nen Abilities.

At the same time.

It was also a kind of absolute defense that Kim himself figured out, making him invincible.

Netero's expression was grave, a bead of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his aged eyes could not hide his shock.

Just now.

The moment the sticky rice cake in Jin's hand was transferred.

He was almost about to make a move!

However, the move is already complete.

In that slow, imperceptible flow of time, he seemed to see the monster's eyes glance at him.

His plan to take action came to an abrupt halt.

It felt like being doused with a bucket of cold water.

The other person's reaction speed was fast enough to see his movements clearly!

Certainly.

On the field, it wasn't just Netero.

In that split second, in the fleeting passage of time...

Ian is located in the back.

Having reached the same level of understanding as Netero, he... also witnessed the monster's eyes moving.

"Hiss..."

Ian gasped.

Spatial transfer!

Exceptional reaction speed!

This monster in front of me is absolutely terrifying...

Fortunately, I didn't give Jin any other items, otherwise, if the other party had taken them, it would have been a huge problem!

"President, Ian, don't act rashly for now. Your protective shields can withstand the enemy's..."

As soon as King Kong opened his mouth, he sensed that something was wrong.

I understand now that the sticky rice cake Ian gave me earlier is the one that's working.

But.

The desiccated monster opposite him also understood what he said.

He looked at the [Translation Konjac] in his hand with interest, then swallowed it whole without a care in the world.

On its charred and emaciated face, there seemed to be a look of pleasure.

"I can sense that this food contains a pure will..."

It is chewing.

Then suddenly, his eyes widened.

Those dark, cloudy eyes revealed a look of surprise as they looked down at the [Translation Konjac] that had already been bitten open.

"To think... he possesses such an amazing ability..."

"Human, is this the food you created?"

It stood quietly in place, raised its head, and its surprised eyes swept across the crowd, looking at Ian, who was hidden behind the Toy Soldiers and shrouded in a layer of colorful phantom.

And at this very moment.

Its words reached the audience, and everyone could understand them. The monster continued speaking.

"Even the former chief chef of the kingdom would have found it difficult to create such innovative food. You did a good job."

The monster in front of us is very strange.

Despite looking like a withered corpse, his words and actions haven't been particularly frightening since his appearance.

If you disregard its terrifying appearance, it does resemble an elderly person.

He observed everything that was completely new and exciting to him with a calm and composed mindset.

The monster hadn't finished eating the Translation Konjac in its hand.

After chewing a few bites, he seemed to cherish it, a hint of nostalgia appearing in his eyes.

The next moment, he raised his hand and flipped it over. A shadow seemed to flash across his withered, charred palm, and the sticky rice cakes mysteriously disappeared into his hand.

Then, he slowly raised his dark palm, pointed at Ian, and said in a hoarse voice.

"Human, you may become the new Chief Chef of the Gandor Kingdom, as a reward from this king."

As he finished speaking...

Everyone present was startled.

The others didn't have the same full picture of things as Netero and King.

They were all shocked when they heard the monster admit that he came from the Gandor Dynasty.

After all, that was a kingdom from thousands of years ago, as described in the Golden Mouth...

They have long since disappeared into the annals of history.

A thousand years is enough time to erase too many traces...

Ian, who was being pointed at, turned pale.

What chief royal chef?

This big, dark-faced guy in front of me... does he think I'm a cook?!

He took a deep breath, trying to remind himself not to get angry, not to get angry. Why bother arguing with a "Mummy"? The opponent's strength was unclear, so he had to stay calm.

At this moment.

Netero spoke.

In this world, humans do not own everything.

Some intelligent Magical Beasts, though confined to certain areas by humans, at least coexist peacefully with them.

The intelligent creature before me.

It's unclear whether it's human.

But since he calls himself "this king," being able to communicate saves a lot of trouble.

"King from the Gandor Dynasty, what is your purpose in coming to this Mortal World?"

Netero stared intently at the other person and spoke calmly.

Anyway.

The leak of Malice and the terrifying monsters under their command both demonstrate the serious threat they pose!

If the other party harbors malicious intent.

Therefore... no matter the cost, we must eliminate them here!

The monster's eyes shifted slightly, its gaze fixed on Netero, as if it had seen through the old man's thoughts, and it spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Mortals, you must show respect before me, the King..."

He simply raised his palm.

An invisible force seemed to appear out of nowhere!

The next moment, Netero's pupils contracted!

"100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva!"

"Boom--"

A golden light suddenly appeared, and a tremendous impact resounded throughout the arena, with a huge gust of air erupting into the surrounding dark void!

But!

Enveloped in colorful phantoms, Netero remained unmoved, while the surrounding walls teetered on the brink of collapse from the violent impact.

"President!"

"Netero!"

Knov and the other Hunters shouted anxiously.

The people around noticed the monster's attack and immediately became more alert, ready to fight at any moment!

Jin remained remarkably calm, his eyes seemingly peering through countless specks of smoke as he meticulously observed the monster's every move.

Or rather...

He understood that Netero's purpose in taking action was to create opportunities for him.

Taking advantage of the brief moment of clash between the two, Ian pulled out the [Cursed Camera] from the Four-Dimensional Space.

He noticed it.

The monster before us, so far, doesn't seem to have shown any rapid movement speed.

It's worth a try to take down the other party's Cursed Doll.

However, he did not act rashly.

The opponent's spatial teleportation technique had truly surprised him.

If it weren't for the [Disaster-Repelling Sticker].

He's probably already gone!
