"Oh? How convenient Sadaso didn't show up?" Hiiro commented as Killua walked past her in the hallway. It had only been a few minutes since Killua had won by default against Sadaso, who failed to show up for the match.

She had suspected Killua had somehow scared the competition away one way or another. It seemed Sadaso would never be returning to Heavens Arena, as Hiiro caught a glimpse of him scurrying away with a nervous wreak of a face.

"Yes, it really was." Killua smirked, and walked on like nothing happened. "Although I can't quite say the same for my next match."

Going forward a few hours Killua was right, Hiiro supposed. Even so, the assassin seemed to make his next match look like childs play, shocking the opponent with his own electric whips by grabbing the ends bare handed. An impressive feat indeed.

Hiiro had outright laughed- the poor guy didn't even know what was coming. Someone of his rank, against Killua? Maybe if Killua was six years younger his opponent would've stood a chance but it was far too late now.

Gon's match which had happened before Killua's seemed to yield the same results. Learning from his past mistakes and through observation of Hiiro's face-off with Gido, he had pulverized the tops, later on lifting a massive slab of stone with his fishing pole and having it rain large pieces of rock.

In the end, Gon had obliterated Gidos single prosthetic leg, winning in the process.

Later on, for the second time that week, Riehlvelt faced off against one of Hiiros friends. This time however, it was Gon. Again, it was a one sided match in favor of Gon, even without the help of his fishing rod.

Pathetically enough, Riehlvelt had passed out from fear of being electrocuted, after Gon had pretended to press the electrocute button on the whips that had bound their owner.

It was then after that match, that Hisoka had approached Gon...

..........

"Congratulations, you're an actual Hunter now." Hiiro smirked, her back leaned against a wall inside Wings current residence.  Gon, Killua, and Zushi had only just taken the water divination test, Wing explaining to them that this was the hidden Hunter exam all along.

"But then..." Gon turned his attention towards Hiiro "Ne, Hiiro, what type are you? Are you an Emitter?"

"No, I'm a Conjurer. If you look closely, the stands of nen I produce are actually connected to my body one way or another, passing through it and not separated from my physical form." Hiiro explained, flicking her finger. A strand of red string shot out from it, quickly weaving its way back and disappearing in a flash.

"I had figured." Wing approached Hiiro with a blank face "But a Conjurer of your level on the 200th floor? Who would've thought. Typically Conjurers are the weakest starting ability, unless you manage to master it."

"It's the weakest ability? But you're pretty strong Hiiro." Killua commented.

"If you're able to master Conjuration then the power itself is quite broken. I've been studying ever since I met Hisoka so it's been quite some time. For example-" Hiiro's head snapped towards the cup. Her hand stretched outwards, clenching slowly in the direction of the cup.

The water seemed to be turning a gray color, and somehow... hardening. Within moments the glass had shattered with a a loud crash following it. Wide eyed, Gon, Killua, and Zushi inspected the remains of the water- only, there wasn't any.

The water had turned into a solid brick of lead, the staggering weight too much for the glass to support.

"Impressive." Wing muttered "How far have you really mastered the art of Conjurering, Hiiro Morrow?" The two stood a fair few feet away from the estatic trio commenting on what Hiiro had managed to accomplish.
