Paths: Changes×Chances

Chapter 7

"THE EXAM IS ABOUT TO BEGIN!!"

the voice echoed in the entire room, Nobunaga stood up and started walking to the other two

"We'll finish our discussion later" he said while disappearing in the crowd

Pitou put her magazine in the backpack and slowly stood up, she walked towards the door in front of the crowd to hear better what the examiner had to say, not like she needed to since she had super hearing but she wanted to distract herself from Nobunaga and the other two

The examiner could use nen, that's for sure, she expected examiners to be nen users but was pleasantly surprised to see that the first one wasn't all that powerfull, strong? Yes, but weaker than an officer chimera ant, she turned slightly to look at Shizuku, Feitan and Nobunaga and saw that none of them was concerned about him, she felt relieved to know that they weren't intrested in people weaker than them, however she was worried for Knuckle, if they decided to fight him individually she thought he could handle it, but all three at once? Pitou would let no one touch her friends and her eyes showed a little flash, as if a torch had been lighted behind them

Then she thought about something else not to feel to much tension for Knuckle, the exam was meant for non-nen users, it did make sense for pros to host it but it didn't make sense to see masters around, of curse with exception of Knuckle, strong nen users were useless for that kind of job, so she only had to worry during his part of the exam

"BEFORE WE BEGIN, MY NAME IS BOMA HUNNS, A BLACK-LIST HUNTER! I SHALL ILLUSTRATE THE BASE RULES OF THE EXAM AND THEN WE CAN MOVE TO YOUR CHALLENGE!" he continued, pushing Pitou out of her thoughts

"FIRST: INDEPENDENTLY FROM YOUR SCORE, WE EXAMINORS CAN CHOOSE WHETHER OR NOT YOU PASS, IF YOU SHOW AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR AGAINST US, YOU ARE DISQUALIFIED!"
He waited a second, it had clearly happened before, he probably said it because he must have felt the other three, Pitou saw it in his eyes: a bit of fear, he knew that those three were out of his league, good thing he couldn't feel her aura or he would have been crying by now

"SECOND AND MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL: BY TAKING THE EXAM YOU'RE ACCEPTING THE POSSIBILITY OF DEATH OR SEVERE INJURY, IF YOU AREN'T READY YOU CAN GO HOME CRYING TO YOUR MOMMIES!" he laughed like a madman after that and Pitou felt the urge to cover her ears, tho it wouldn't have changed much

The man was tall, very tall, at least two meters, his brown hairs weren't short but not too long and tied to the back of his head, he was jacked and the posture showed his dedication to training, his aura wasn't incredible sure, but many would have called him a pro, Pitou determined that he must have probably been learning nen by less than 3 years, he was in his twenties so he still had much too train.....unlike her....

Pitou didn't want to fight anyone, but she still considered the possibility with the guy, he was probably an enhancer, but she couldn't tell just yet and he seemed to be the one to pick up a fight just for the fun of it.....just like she used to.....her eyes darkened at the thought but she shook herself, she wasn't like that anymore

"VERY WELL, THAT BEING SAID: HERE!"

He lifted a giant bag and then trew it in front of the candidates, everyone moved to avoid it but Pitou stayed there and the bag simply landed in front of her, barely lifting some dust, she turned to see all those who run in fear at the sight of the bag and sighed

'I'm afraid this is gonna be too easy' she opened the bag and some aplicants got closer, it was full of what seemed to be old generation phones

The examiner got closer and took one too

"THESE ARE ALL MAPS OF THE FOLLOWING AREA, FROM THE MOMENT YOU ALL GET TROUGH THAT DOOR THEY SHALL ACTIVATE!" Pitou was a less than three meters from him and her ears were pleading for mercy hearing him talk that loudly
