I'm Really Not A Nen Exorcist (HxH Fanfic)

In ordinary circumstances, once a person closes their Aura nodes and enters Zetsu state, the Nen ability being actively used, including the conjured Nen beasts created from Aura, would disappear.

However, Moses's Soul Echo possessed a unique characteristic not found in normal Nen beasts...

When he entered Zetsu state, the detached shadow will not disappear, and its abilities remained unaffected.

Why does it have such characteristics?

Moses himself wasn't clear about it. After he thought about it deeply, he only thought of a few possibilities—

Perhaps it's because his body carries two souls, or maybe it was because his clone was conjured using shadow as the medium, or it could be due to the influence of the thoughts brought about by the book 'Swamp Man'.

It might even be because of the limitations he set earlier.

In short, Moses took full advantage of this characteristic and created a unique one-time assassination opportunity.

As far as the final result is concerned, it was fully in line with Moses's expectations.

And this time, the voice called Perception appeared again, bringing an unexpected but pleasant surprise.

Proficiency in the Four Fundamental Techniques +1…

When the voice disappeared, Moses, who had just executed the killing blow, distinctly felt a change in his skill level.

His Ten becomes smoother and more fluid.

If he uses the mission levels released by the Hunter Association as a reference—

Before killing the long-haired man, Moses's Ten was equivalent to G-Rank.

And after killing the long-haired man, Moses's Ten jumped directly to F-Rank.

A leap in one level does indeed bring about noticeable changes.

It can be foreseen that his Zetsu, Ren, and even Hatsu should all experience noticeable improvements.

'Is it the highlight moment…'

In addition to the pleasant surprise, Moses felt he had glimpsed the opportunity where Perception would reward him.

'Perhaps, any splendid performance at any moment, and the correct decisions and choices made in any situation would bring me significant improvements.'

After understanding this, Moses came to the most basic conclusion—

This so-called Perception is not the system as he had guessed before.

It's just that so far, he still doesn't have a clear enough understanding of the full picture of Perception.

He had thought about it before.

Perhaps, the Perception comes from some entity in the Dark Continent, or maybe it was influenced by the Post-Mortem Nen of the Libra when he was still in Elena's womb...

It could even be from the narcissistic attribute deep in his consciousness that is not yet known.

Because of his subconscious narcissism, he believes that his outstanding performance needs to be highlighted with rewards, and his Nen ability gives feedback on this?

'I'm pretty sure I'm not that narcissistic yet…'

Moses has no way of determining the exact possibility, nor did he have the time to delve into it at the moment.

After all, the crisis has not yet been resolved, and judging from the situation on the field, they are still at a disadvantage.

Moses stepped over the long-haired man's body and picked up another submachine gun with ample ammunition.

Also at this time—

Genbu could only accept the fact that Cole was indeed beheaded by a brat.

He cursed fiercely, and without hesitation, he rushed towards Hawk, who was leaning against the tree trunk.

Just now, he didn't insist on delivering the final blow to Hawk just now, and even distanced himself from Hawk to create an opportunity for Cole to attack.

However, he didn't expect that such an action would lead Cole into his death.

Given the current situation, Genbu's only thought now was to first take down Hawk. After all, this guy is a Nen user capable of releasing abilities related to gravity...

Despite being heavily injured, there was still the possibility of Hawk launching a sudden sneak attack on him.

Genbu rushed towards Hawk, and at the same time, Moses stepped forward, raising the submachine gun and firing at Genbu.

Rat-a-tat-tat!

As the flames gushed out from the nozzle, bullets flew toward Genbu.

Due to the enhancement of Nen on physical qualities, the recoil had almost no effect on Moses, allowing him to control the aim well.

However, Genbu ignored the bullets this time.

Ken!

He maximized the release of Aura around him, creating a defensive layer that bullets couldn't penetrate. The flying bullets hit Genbu's Ken, creating sparks.

Genbu frowned slightly when he felt this. Although using Aura to the maximum to use Ken could indeed allow him resist attacks from conventional firearms, he still felt the pain generated by the impact.

Ignoring the continuous barrage of bullets, Genbu attacked Hawk as quickly as possible.

'It's too late…'

Moses's pupils shrank. Even though he had released his shadow, with the current distance, its speed was not enough to catch after Genbu.

'Is there any way to stop him...!'

In the next moment, Moses thought of the black Aura wrapped around his right hand.

This Aura was created by him using emotion fragments, and its power has been verified by the long-haired man.

Without time to consider whether the black Aura will dissipate after leaving his body, Moses waved his hand, and the black Aura gathered in his palm suddenly turned into a sharp arrow, shooting towards Genbu.

"Huh!?"

Before the black arrow arrived, the intense and dangerous Aura stimulated Genbu first.

'What…'

Sensing the danger, Genbu quickly glanced at the black arrow and promptly stopped, making a side-step to dodge.

The black arrow swiftly passed in front of his chest, heading towards a nearby big tree.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Whoosh!

Accompanied by an extremely faint sound, the trunk of the big tree was easily cut off by the black arrow.

But the black sharp arrow didn't lose its momentum and, in the blink of an eye, cut down seven or eight large trees before disappearing into the darkness.

'This power… An Emission-type ability!!'

Genbre looked at the big tree cut by the black arrow, feeling a tremor in his heart.

'It was too close.'

'Had I not dodged just now, the consequences would have been disastrous.'

'This brat!!!'

Genbu looked at Moses solemnly.

'Being able to behead Cole and release such powerful Nen attacks...'

'I must not underestimate this brat just because of his age.'

Even so, Genbu still planned to deal with Hawk first.

Bang!

Genbu stepped forward, continuing to charge towards Hawk.

But this time, he focused more on Moses, and his sprint speed was noticeably slower than before.

On the other hand, Moses, after throwing out the emotion fragments, also rushed towards Hawk without stopping at all.

Both of them were moving towards Hawk.

This also means that when Moses is approaching Hawk, he is also approaching Genbu.

For Moses, who is at an absolute disadvantage in Nen skills, actively reducing the distance was an extremely risky move.

However, for Hawk's safety, he had no choice but to do so.

Rat-a-tat…!

The magazine was emptied, and the sound of gunfire ceased abruptly.

Moses pursed his lips, choosing not to discard the submachine gun.

Underneath the big tree, Hawk, who was seriously injured and unable to move, looked at Moses blankly.

He couldn't understand it at all.

His own son, who had only awakened his Nen for less than half a month, actually possessed such strong Nen abilities.

This is no longer a phenomenon that can be explained by talent.

'Moses…'

Even after witnessing Moses's strength, Hawk didn't think Moses could defeat Genbu.

The reason being-

He has become a burden to Moses.
