There are steady ways to become stronger, so there's no need to put myself in danger for a gamble.
"But this can't be wasted. I'll give it to Machi later and have her make a trip there~~~"
Machi already had a connection with [Misty Forest Valley], and it was Miss Renko who admired her and gave her the ticket in the first place.
Besides, both of them are likely Transmutation Type users, and they both have abilities related to stitching.
Machi and her are a perfect match.
"[Misty Forest Valley] is home to Miss Renko, who is a [Funeral Beautician]..."
On the way back, Father Zhol told Mog about the place.
"She cooperates with Meteor City. Other than when bodies need to be repaired here, you cannot disturb her at any other time."
"Only the Elders of Meteor City have more contact with her and can issue such tickets."
Father Zhol first explained the general connection between the place and Meteor City, and then~~~
"I don't recommend you go looking for her there."
He said honestly, thinking of Mog's best interests:
"Her temperament is rather peculiar, and she doesn't really like men getting close to her place."
"Moreover, your ability might not be compatible with hers. If you go looking for her, it might not be suitable..."
Father Zhol's words were tactful, and Mog could sense his good intentions.
"Don't worry, Father. I know what I'm doing."
After a brief chat with Father Zhol, Mog returned to the warehouse base with Chrollo.
And on the way.
"Miss Renko from [Misty Forest Valley], she probably uses Nen abilities too, right?"
Chrollo suddenly asked, "And Father Zhol as well?"
"Mm, probably."
Mog didn't deny it, then looked at Chrollo's bright eyes:
"When you're ready, I'll teach you Nen abilities too."
"But first, you need to build up a better body."
Chrollo's talent was definitely on par with Gon and Killua's.
And under the arrangements of Ging Freecss and the Zoldyck family, both of them only started awakening their Nen abilities at the age of twelve.
Mog felt that their experience was more worth learning from and respecting compared to those who had been immersed in Nen for many years.
Therefore, for Chrollo, learning Nen at twelve years old was the best timing.
"As for Uvogin and the others, they can start a bit earlier~~~"
By age, Franklin and Phinks were the oldest, both already seventeen.
Then came Nobunaga at fourteen, Uvogin at thirteen, and Pakunoda and Feitan at twelve.
During the filming period, Uvogin and the others could distinguish priorities.
Without delaying filming, they were also diligently exercising their bodies.
At least, in Mog's opinion, they were already quite suitable.
Because of this, when Mog and Chrollo returned to the base warehouse and told everyone about this matter.
"We can try learning Nen abilities now?!"
Uvogin's eyes lit up upon hearing the good news.
"As expected of Mog, he could tell at a glance that our bodies are strong enough to learn!!"
"Come on, just temper me! No matter what kind of aura pores opening, I can withstand it!!"
Uvogin excitedly spun in place, almost hugging Mog.
"Don't get too happy too soon."
Mog glanced at him. "After you open your aura pores, if you can't lock the escaping Qi back into your body yourself, you'll die of Qi exhaustion, and no one can save you."
"Hahaha, don't worry about that!!"
Uvogin laughed heartily and thumped his chest.
"This old man Uvogin is tough, even heaven can't take my life!!"
It wasn't just Uvogin; the other members had similar expressions.
Anticipation, joy, longing, eager gazes, and so on.
Mog merely shrugged at this and then chose two people to be the first examples for everyone.
Franklin, the oldest, and Uvogin, the most robust and strong.
"Why me?!"
Phinks expressed his strong dissatisfaction, "I'm older than Uvogin!!"
"Hahahaha, it's because you're not as tall as me, nor as strong!!"
Uvogin was smugly showing off.
Upon hearing the word "[height]," Feitan, whose keyword was triggered, also looked up and glanced sideways at Uvogin.
However, since it wasn't directed at him specifically, he decided to let it slide for now.
"Don't worry, once this old man Uvogin learns Nen ability, I'll definitely take good care of Gu Gu Gu Gu..."
Uvogin's tongue suddenly got tied, and his gaze gradually became vacant.
"This is..."
Within Machi's beautiful pupils, which were gradually showing signs of shock, Uvogin's entire body radiated with Qi!
"The Qi within the human body?!"
BOOM!!
When Mog placed his hands on Uvogin and Franklin's shoulders, in just an instant, he completely opened the aura pores on both of them!
The immense Qi hidden within their bodies instantly surged out!
"Calm your minds and lock all the Qi that's flowing out back into your own bodies!!"
Franklin, who was already taking it seriously, immediately complied. Uvogin also straightened his tongue and quickly followed suit.
Fortunately, both of them were naturally talented in this regard.
Furthermore, having survived in Meteor City, they had long ago come to terms with the possibility of death.
Controlling the flowing Qi back into their bodies was incredibly simple for them.
After a brief period of familiarization, both quickly began guiding the external Qi back on the right track.
In the eyes of Machi and the others, they could clearly feel that Uvogin and Franklin were undergoing a qualitative change!
Meanwhile, in the Elder's Western-style room.
Elder Babagra sat in his rocking chair, finishing the videotape recorded by Mog and the others, which Father Zhol had sent over.
After all the scenes had concluded, a subordinate who was guarding nearby stepped forward.
"Those two have confessed."
The subordinate whispered, "They were both working for Lisnos, the chairman of the 'Children's Future' foundation outside."
"Mmm~~~"
Elder Babagra let out an ambiguous sound.
The 'Children's Future' foundation, specifically coming to Meteor City to abduct children, doing such things... Heh!
He casually waved his hand, and his subordinate understood and left.
Now that the mastermind behind it all was known, the two drivers and the tattooed mole man had no further value in remaining in this world.
It was a waste of Meteor City's air.
As for their fate.
It would be as Mog had told Elder Babagra before.
An eye for an eye.
They would have to taste the same price and suffering as they had inflicted upon those children.
"The filming was done very well..."
Elder Babagra's gaze remained fixed on the television screen in front of him.
"It's truly a shame to be confined to Meteor City."
"Moreover, now that I've recognized the changes of the era, staying in Meteor City alone won't lead to any achievements."
"Ultimately, I must venture out into the world."
In the large room, only Elder Babagra's murmurs echoed.
After this incident concluded, it seemed to have no apparent impact on Meteor City.
In the following weeks, Chrollo and the others continued to film the story while also training their bodies.
The recently released episodes were highly praised by the children of Meteor City.
In their words, the '[Monster Human]' who appeared later felt much more intimidating and stronger, by more than just one level.
And the members of '[Hyakuju Sentai]' seemed to be getting stronger along with them.
Yes, it was indeed the children's discerning eyes that could perceive these changes.
After Uvogin and Franklin successfully locked their Qi back into their bodies and completely mastered Nen, the remaining members followed suit without hesitation.
