Since he had a reliable way to grow stronger, there was no need to put himself in danger and gamble with his life.

"But this thing shouldn't go to waste. I'll give it to Machi later and have her make a trip there~~~"

After all, Machi already had a connection with Misty Forest Valley. Miss Renko had originally taken a liking to her and proactively given her the ticket.

And they were both probably Transmutation Types, with abilities related to stitching.

Machi was truly far better suited to her.

"In Misty Forest Valley, there lives a Miss Renko. She is a Funeral Beautician..."

On their way back, Father Zhol told Mog about that place.

"She has a cooperative relationship with Meteor City. Other than when Corpse Restoration is needed here, no one is allowed to disturb her at any other time."

"Only Meteor City's elders have closer contact with her and can provide tickets like this."

Father Zhol first explained the rough connection between that place and Meteor City, then~~~

"I don't recommend that you go looking for her."

He spoke honestly, clearly thinking of Mog's best interests.

"Her temperament is rather strange, and she doesn't particularly like men getting near that place."

"Besides, your ability may not be compatible with hers. It might not be appropriate for you to seek her out..."

Father Zhol had put it rather tactfully, but Mog could hear the goodwill in his words.

"Don't worry, Father. I know what I'm doing."

After chatting briefly with Father Zhol, Mog returned to the warehouse base with Chrollo.

While they were on the road.

"That Miss Renko from Misty Forest Valley can use Nen abilities too, right?"

Chrollo suddenly asked. "And Father Zhol as well?"

"Yeah, probably."

Mog did not deny it. Then he looked into Chrollo's bright eyes.

"When you're ready, I'll teach you Nen abilities too."

"But at the very least, you need to build a better body first."

Chrollo's talent was absolutely no less than Gon's or Killua's.

Under Ging Freecss's and the Zoldyck Family's arrangements, those two had only begun awakening their Nen abilities at the age of twelve.

Mog felt that compared to those big shots who had immersed themselves in Nen abilities for years, their experience was far more worthy of reference and respect.

So for Chrollo, learning Nen at twelve was the best timing.

"As for Uvogin and the others, we can start them a little earlier~~~"

By age, Franklin and Phinks were the oldest. Both were already seventeen.

Then came Nobunaga at fourteen, Uvogin at thirteen, and Pakunoda and Feitan at twelve.

During this period of filming, Uvogin and the others had also been able to distinguish priorities.

Without interfering with filming, they had been training their bodies diligently.

At least, in Mog's eyes, they were already fairly suitable.

Thus, after Mog and Chrollo returned to the warehouse base and told everyone about it.

"We can try learning Nen abilities now?!!"

Uvogin's eyes instantly lit up at the good news.

"As expected of Mog! You saw at a glance that our bodies are ready to start learning!!"

"Come on, temper me as much as you like! No matter how you open my Aura Nodes, I can take it!!"

Uvogin spun around excitedly on the spot, just short of throwing himself at Mog for a hug.

"Don't get excited too soon."

Mog glanced at him. "After your Aura Nodes are opened, if you can't lock the Aura leaking out back inside your body, then you'll die once it runs out. No one will be able to save you."

"Hahahaha, don't worry about that!!"

Uvogin laughed heartily and slapped his chest.

Master Uvogin's life is tough. Even heaven can't take it from me!!"

It was not just Uvogin. The other members all wore similar expressions.

Anticipation, joy, yearning, blazing eyes—there was no shortage of any of it.

Mog merely shrugged at that, then chose two people to serve as the examples for everyone else.

The oldest, Franklin, and the largest and strongest, Uvogin.

"Why?!!"

Phinks voiced his intense dissatisfaction. "I'm older than Uvogin!!"

"Hahahahaha! Because you're shorter than me and not as strong as me!!"

Uvogin smugly showed off.

At the mention of the word "short," Feitan, whose trigger word had been hit, raised his head and shot Uvogin a sidelong glare.

But since it was not specifically directed at him, he would let it slide for now.

"Don't worry. Once Master Uvogin learns Nen abilities, I'll definitely take good care of youuuuu..."

Uvogin's tongue suddenly twisted, and even his gaze gradually went blank.

"This is..."

In Machi's beautiful eyes, which were slowly filling with shock, was reflected the Aura bursting forth from Uvogin's entire body!!

"The Aura inside the human body?!!"

Boom!!

The moment Mog placed his hands on Uvogin's and Franklin's shoulders, he completely opened the Aura Nodes across both their bodies!!

The immense Aura hidden within their bodies instantly gushed out!!

"Focus your minds and lock all the Aura flowing out back into your bodies!!"

Franklin, who had already been taking this seriously, immediately obeyed. After getting his tongue under control, Uvogin hurriedly followed suit.

Fortunately, both of them had considerable talent in this regard.

Moreover, having survived in Meteor City, they had long possessed the resolve to disregard life and death.

Controlling their leaked Aura and returning it to their bodies was simply too easy for them.

After only getting used to it for a moment, the two quickly began guiding the Aura around their bodies into order.

In Machi and the others' eyes, they could clearly sense it.

Uvogin and Franklin were undergoing a qualitative transformation!!

Meanwhile, inside the elders' Western-style residence.

Elder Babagra sat in a rocking chair, having finished watching the videotape Father Zhol had sent over of Mog and the others' film.

Only after the entire plot had ended did the subordinate standing guard beside him step forward.

"Those two have confessed."

The subordinate said in a low voice, "They were both working for Lisnos, chairman of the Children's Future foundation outside."

"Mm~~~"

Elder Babagra made an inscrutable sound.

The Children's Future foundation had specifically come to Meteor City to abduct children and do such things... Heh heh!

He casually waved his hand, and the subordinate understood and withdrew.

Now that they knew who was behind it, the two working drivers and the tattooed, mole-faced man no longer had any value in remaining alive.

It would save them from wasting Meteor City's air.

As for what would become of them.

Just as Mog had told Elder Babagra before.

They would be treated as they had treated others.

How they had treated those children was how they would be made to taste the same price and suffering.

"The film was shot quite well..."

Elder Babagra's gaze remained on the television before him.

"It's truly a pity for them to stay in Meteor City."

"And since they understand the changes of the times, stubbornly remaining in Meteor City will never lead to any real achievements."

"Ultimately, they still need to go outside and take a walk in the wider world."

In the vast room, only Elder Babagra's murmurs echoed.

After this incident ended, it seemed, on the surface, to have had no impact on Meteor City.

Over the following weeks, Chrollo and the others continued filming the story while training their bodies.

And the newly filmed episodes were widely praised by Meteor City's young viewers.

In their words, the Monster Humans who appeared later felt more than one level stronger in both presence and power.

The members of Hyakuju Sentai also seemed to be growing stronger alongside them.

Yes, children really did have sharp eyes, able to notice these changes.

After Uvogin and Franklin successfully locked their Aura back into their bodies and completely learned Nen.

The remaining few could no longer hold themselves back.
