Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Diya said calmly:

"Using military satellites shouldn't be something an ordinary soldier like you can do, right?"

“Indeed, but it can be done as a private soldier of the Third Prince Jolai.”

Amber's words immediately drew the attention of the others.

Although everyone knew that the others were spies sent by other princes, she was the first to be so blunt.

"...Since you're the Third Prince's private soldier, what are you doing participating in this selection?"

Dia was speechless.

Is this just plot inertia? In the original work, all of Mu Muze's subordinates were traitors, and now even the private soldiers he helps her recruit are all traitors? And they're not even acting anymore.

At this moment, Mumu Ze's voice came through the earpiece in Dia's ear:

"Dia, I don't like the way this person talks. I'll refuse her later."

Dia did not reply, but calmly waited for Amber's answer.

Amber didn't notice anything amiss and simply continued speaking to herself:

"Dia Diego, a professional hunter of the Hunter Association, you are a talented person. You were entrusted by the Twelfth Prince to help her select private soldiers, but this must not be an easy task for you."

"After all, he is that twelfth prince."

Dia frowned. Was this person mentally unstable? How dare he make veiled sarcasm about the prince in Kakin?

Meanwhile, Mumu Ze in Dia's earpiece started making loud popping noises, shouting that he wanted to punish the arrogant soldier.

Amber sneered and pointed at the earpiece on Dia's ear, saying:

"If I'm not mistaken, that princess is probably already cursing me out in the earpiece, but she'll stop after I finish speaking."

She had a look on her face that said, "I've got you figured out."

"You knew perfectly well that with the Twelfth Prince's qualifications, he couldn't recruit any truly talented people, so you came up with this underhanded scheme, right?"

"Using their own fame as bait, under the guise of recruiting private soldiers, their real purpose is to lure spies from other princes!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the entire selection process is a gimmick, and these private soldiers disguised as candidates represent the princes behind them."

"That's right, your real purpose is to find a reliable prince to protect that good-for-nothing prince!"

Amber's words were startling, and everyone was taken aback by her deduction.

That seems to make sense, doesn't it?

"So the privately appointed soldiers on site just happened to cover all the princes from the first to the fourth, but I don't know why you kicked out the candidate who was the representative of the third prince, me."

A flicker of doubt crossed Amber's eyes for the first time, but she quickly shook her head, not dwelling on it any longer.

"I don't know if the Twelfth Prince is aware of your plan, but he probably isn't. After all, this is essentially handing her over as a hostage to the prince in exchange for protection. His Highness the Twelfth Prince certainly won't believe your story, and might even think you're a spy for another prince trying to use this as an excuse to betray her."

"To go this far despite the risk of pleasing neither side, you've really put in a lot of effort. I must say, as a hunter, you are indeed an expert at solving problems."

At this point, Amber's theory achieved a logical loop, and even the other outstanding personal creations could not point out any flaws, so they could only secretly admire it.

Even regarding the question about amber, they could find an answer in their hearts—

The reason for excluding the third prince is, of course, because he has no Nen users under his command, making him relatively weaker than the others!

Even the risks of the plan itself are extremely controllable. The only problem is that Diya herself, being at the center of the storm, will probably have to bear considerable pressure.

'This Diya, she actually went to such lengths for that twelfth prince…'

Weildl frowned as he looked at Dia, who remained calm.

Amber's theory is very self-consistent, and she has already come to believe it by more than 60%.

The only question is, why would the hunter use such a thankless and exhausting method to complete the quest? Is he really that dedicated?

In fact, the relationship between Diya and Mumu Ze was not recorded in the military's documents.

In the escort mission to Yorknew City, Dia participated as an outsourced employee of Mizziston's company. His name was not recorded in the military records of Kakin; all records referred to him as "a certain security personnel."

After all, Kakin has hundreds of military and diplomatic tasks to record and advance every day. The fact that each task is recorded in such detail would have already overwhelmed the administrative pressure on Kakin, a country in an emerging nation.

"But now that I've laid it all out here, there's no need to waste time on the rest of the selection process. State your conditions, and I'll call His Highness the Third Prince to negotiate."

Amber wore a smug expression, as if she could already see herself being praised and promoted by the Third Prince for her meritorious service.

However, right in front of her, a hint of mockery suddenly flashed across Dia's face, who was standing calmly.

In that instant, a sense of foreboding welled up in her heart.

“Well said, but…”

Dia said softly:

You've overlooked something.

"Huh?"

Amber's expression froze for a moment, while the other private soldiers who had been following Amber's train of thought narrowed their eyes.

"Do you even have the right to negotiate?"

Dia calmly looked at the self-righteous female soldier.

The next moment, three [thoughts] filled with malice and killing intent suddenly descended!

Just as Dia finished speaking, Weldl, Dracula, and Tita, who were spies for the first, second, and fourth princes, almost simultaneously released their [Training]!

In an instant, terrifying evil thoughts enveloped Amber!

The soldier, who had just been confidently boasting, froze on the spot in an instant.

At that moment, she felt as if she had entered a cold cellar filled with venomous snakes and ferocious beasts naked, and her vision was immediately covered by an endless expanse of darkness.

The extreme fear originating from the depths of her genes overwhelmed Amber's rationality like a torrent, utterly destroying her ability to think!

pat.

Amber's face contorted with terror, her eyes wide with fear, drool and snot dripping down her collar, and she collapsed to the ground in a duck-like position.

Before long, a pool of mysterious, yellowish liquid slowly flowed out...

Weildl looked at her and sneered, "Idiot."

Tita said expressionlessly, "Idiot."

Dracula calmly remarked, "Useless."

The full force of a Nen user's evil intent is enough to completely destroy the mind of a battle-hardened veteran, let alone three Nen users attacking at the same time.

Pokson stared blankly at Amber, who had instantly become a cripple, unsure of what to think.

Just now, she was the only one who didn't target Amber.

In fact, she knew very well why others would take action—to eliminate competitors.

According to Amber's theory, eliminating her would prevent Dia from having the opportunity to cooperate with the third prince again.

Even excluding the "twelfth prince finding a backer" theory, if Amber continues in this selection and returns to the third prince's side normally...

One thing is foreseeable: the Third Prince's side will obtain information about [Nian].

Everyone present was a Nen user, and it was almost certain that Dia's selection would involve Nen abilities, making Amber, the only non-Nen user present, stand out conspicuously.

Therefore, in order to prevent the spread of information about [Nian], the outcome of the actions taken by the people present was almost a foregone conclusion.

Pokson was able to figure this out immediately, but he couldn't act as decisively as others.

Ultimately, she was not truly aware of the need to participate in the struggle between the princes.

"You are smart, but not enough."

Looking at Amber, who had fallen into dementia, Diya calmly said:

"Also, Mu Muze is not a good-for-nothing, and you have no right to judge her."

Everyone felt that Mumu Ze lacked the magnanimity to become a king, and in a sense, that was indeed the case.

But with Dia's assistance, her chances of ascending the throne are definitely higher than anyone else's.

Amber's tragedy is merely a glimpse into this world.

That's the logic of the Hunter world: no matter how cunning you are, if you're not strong enough, you'll die instantly.

She may be smarter than the other private soldiers, but the lack of the crucial intelligence of [Nian] led her reasoning into a dead end from the very beginning, ultimately trapping her in a desperate situation.

To put it bluntly, it was her reasoning that forced everyone to take action and cripple her.

"Now that everyone is here, let's begin the selection process. Everyone, please hand in the paper files mentioned above."

Dia turned to the remaining four people and said.

Upon hearing this, the four soldiers obediently took out their materials.

After gathering them up, Diya didn't even look at them before casually tossing them into the nearby trash can, which startled everyone.

These people, as professional soldiers and regular troops around the prince, would naturally not have any flaws in their materials; this step was merely a formality to make the process more standardized.

"Okay, this selection process consists of three stages. You will be given a corresponding score for each stage. After the three stages are completed, the person with the highest score will be hired."

Dia glanced at his watch; there weren't many people, and he hoped to finish by tonight.

"As the prince's personal guards, you will need to shield him from bullets at the most critical moments. Therefore, the first phase will test your resilience."

Dia raised her right fist, and the muscles in her arm instantly taut like iron!

In an instant, a terrifying aura swept out, and a massive amount of spiritual energy condensed in Dia's right fist in everyone's eyes!

Everyone could feel that the violent power in that right fist was like a live volcano about to erupt, just waiting to explode!

"I'll only use a third of my strength. Come up when you're ready."

The three people, apart from Pokson, were immediately terrified!

Is this guy trying to kill someone on the spot?!
