Menchi brought an egg back up and grinned.

[ Killua ] "That looks so fun!"

[ Y/n ] "See, I'm not the only one who thinks it's fun"

Killua and I high-five each other.

[ Chairman ] "This ravine has updrafts that are crucial to the spider-eagle; once they hatch, the wind currents help guide their newborn's chicks as they fly up to safely."

Menchi displays the egg for everyone to see.

[ Menchi ] "There, now I need to boil it, and I'll be set!"

[ ??? ] "You gotta be kidding, you mean...you really expect us to jump down there? That's crazy!"

[ Y/n ] "I couldn't care less."

I lay down my staff before diving in. Along with grabbing an egg that was next to me, I grasp the web.

[ Gon ] "Well, as Y/n said, if you can't beat them, you might as well join them!"

After a brief exchange of glances, each applicant dives or jumps in.

[ ??? ] "You are so courageous, Y/n~"

I looked back and became aware of Hisoka.

[ Y/n ] "Ugh, you again...how so?"

[ Hisoka ] "You persuade some people to take a risk~"

[ Y/n ] "Never once did I instruct them to jump. I jump because I felt like it."

[ Hisoka ] "How clever~"

After rolling my eyes, I noticed a guy falling.

[ Kurapika ] "The updrafts don't happen all the time"

[ Y/n ] "Oh no, I can't wait."

I repeatedly swung on the web and bounced
from one web to another.

[ Leorio ] "Y/n, what are you doing?!? Are you crazy?!"

[ Y/n ] "Not at all!"

I took a cautious jump into the air and pulled
three front flips before landing on the ground  where we attended before.

[ Menchi ] "Wow, I never considered it in that way."

[ Y/n ] "Well, you learn something new everyday"

I grinned as I viewed the egg.

[ Menchi ] "Okay, we will boiled our eggs as soon as everyone return"

[ Y/n ] "Alright"

I raise my staff and place it behind my back.

[ Gon ] "Look, Y/n!"

When I turned around, I could see everyone floating. Gon smiles and jumps into my arms.

[ Gon ] "You have to teach me how to do that trick!"

[ Y/n ] "Okay, maybe later, but let's concentrate on the exam for the moment."

I lowered Gon and grinned.

[ Gon ] "Okay!"

[ Menchi ] "What about you, guys?"

People who didn't jump was being questioned by her.

[ Menchi ] "I'm guessing you quit?"

[ Chairman ] "Conceding takes courage too"

We began boiling our eggs shortly after eating them.

[ Y/n ] "I am not going to lie, this is very good."

[ Kurapika ] "I can see why they're called Dream Eggs"

[ Gon ] "Hey, Mr.Toda, the egg's really good. Do you want to try it?"

[ Y/n ] "Gon has a pure heart, because I wouldn't even consider sharing."

[ Leorio ] "He does..."

[ Toda ] "It's delicious"

I made my way over to Hisoka and Gittarackur.

[ Y/n ] "How do you two feel about the eggs?"

[ Hisoka ] "It is outstanding, just like you~"

I rolled my eyes and then turned to face Gittarackur in the thought of his answer.

[ Gittarackur ] "It's okay"

[ Y/n ] "Just okay?"

[ Gittarackur ] "Okay, it's alright...?"

[ Hisoka ] "May I ask you a question, Y/n?~"

[ Y/n ] "Sure-"

[ Chairman ] "All right, everyone! Let's get back on the Airship."

[ Y/n ] "You can ask me later"
