Rational Cunning

After entering this Nen Space, Pariston paid no attention to the Eye of Vision hanging above the plaza, radiating an astonishing aura.

He cared nothing for the course or outcome of Chairman Netero's clash with that Qinglin Squad member, and even less for his fellow Zodiacs, who looked to be in dire straits.

He had not seen Moyu at first, but he was certain Moyu was here.

Now that Moyu had appeared, Pariston fixed his attention on him.

"Is it a Nen Ability, or something peculiar about him...?"

Watching Moyu with keen interest, Pariston slowly raised a hand to his chin and considered why the copies around him ignored him.

Unfortunately, there were no other constructs of this Nen Space in sight.

The army of copies had probably knocked them all out of the running.

Otherwise, he could have checked whether those constructs ignored Moyu too and gathered more information.

As things stood, the chance that a Nen Ability was making the copies ignore him seemed very low. More than that, it made little sense.

If it were an ability's effect, the copies should not have continued to ignore Moyu after he attacked them so freely.

Pariston himself was a case in point.

Though his Nen Ability temporarily kept the surrounding copies from attacking him, it also placed considerable limits on what he could do.

Rational Cunning.

It was one of Pariston's Nen Abilities.

Absolute rationality was its premise, an absolute refusal to intervene its condition, and information gathering its process.

In return, it granted him the ability to stay completely out of matters, within reasonable bounds.

Then, as an observer, he could let events follow the "plotline" he wanted to see, effortlessly achieving his utterly "trivial" goal.

The ability's effect of keeping him out of matters had freed Pariston
