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

The King ignored Pouf's report and walked past the wailing Queen with an expressionless face, approaching the uneven cave wall.

Then-

With a casual motion, he pressed his palm against the wall.

Boom!

Accompanied by a loud explosion, the entire nest shook violently.

The King's casual strike had blasted a hole nearly ten meters in diameter through the nest's wall.

Pouf in the back looked up at the King standing in front of the big hole, and a ripple suddenly arose in his heart.

'This is our King!'

Compared to Pouf, who was more prone to emotional fluctuations, Pitou only showed a moderate level of surprise upon witnessing the King's display of overwhelming power.

Although she was under the influence of Kyoka Suigetsu, her current 'world' is functioning normally.

In other words-

As long as Moses didn't command Pitou to betray the King, Pitou's loyalty to the Chimera Ant King remained unwavering.

Moreover, before the Kyoka Suigetsu is fully activated, Pitou's soul and personality will not be affected in any way.

This is the fundamental reason why the King could sense 'loyalty' and 'submission' from Pitou.

At the same time, this is also the most terrifying thing about Kyoka Suigetsu.

Generally speaking, Manipulation-Type Ability are divided into three types: suggestion-type, semi-compulsory-type, and compulsory-type.

Kyoka Suigetsu leaned more toward the suggestion-type, which had the weakest control but excelled in deception compared to compulsory-type abilities that erased the target's consciousness.

At the same time, as long as the target didn't Zetsu to dispel the control effect of Kyoka Suigetsu,

in a sense, the controllability of Kyoka Suigetsu could surpass that of compulsory-type abilities.

This duality, which is balancing contradiction and extremes, was the true strength of Kyoka Suigetsu.

Therefore, unless Pitou suddenly used Zetsu, Moses doesn't have to worry about Pitou being exposed.

'Has the Chimera Ant King set his sights on the old man?'

In an inconspicuous corner of the nest, Moses suddenly sensed the Aura of the King rushing out of the nest, and his heart immediately skipped a beat.

The presence of the King's Aura is so overwhelming that even without using En, Moses could easily track the King's movements.

Realizing that the King was heading towards Netero, Moses felt a sense of dread.

If it were a one-on-one battle between Netero and the King, Moses wouldn't have to worry about Netero's safety in the short term.

But if the King and Youpi teamed up against Netero, then Netero's safety would become a serious concern.

'I'm afraid I only have one chance...'

'Before I act, I need to make sure Morel and the others retreat first.'

Moses began to worry about Netero's situation, but he also needed to ensure Morel and the others retreated first.

'Old man, you'll have to hold on a little longer.'

Thinking of this, Moses controlled a unit of shadow with his hands and kneaded it into a needle-like shape.

Afterwards, Moses inserted the shadow needle into the ground, stopping only when it was more than halfway submerged in the ground.

He planned to add the power of Super Speed to the shadow needle, and then force the shadow needle to reach the bottom of the nest as quickly as possible.

…

The lowest level of the nest.

White smoke filled the surrounding.

The birth of the King and the terrifying Aura that followed had certainly affected both sides engaged in battle within the smoke, but it didn't stop the slaughter from continuing.

Thud, thud-

There would be intermittent dull sounds in the white smoke.

That was the sound of the Chimera Ants falling to the ground after being ambushed and killed by Morel and the others.

They are outnumbered and the enemy is individually strong.

In this situation, only Morel's Nen Smoke could achieve such continuous attrition.

This is like activating a very valuable Field Magic Card!

However-

Among the Chimera Ants, there is a Squadron Leader who has the genes of a wolf-dog hybrid.

In addition to him, there are also many Chimera Ant Officers with specialized tracking abilities.

But in chaotic combat, only the sense of smell can reliably pinpoint the enemies.

The wolf-dog Squadron Leader, Welfin, pressed low to the ground, trying to reduce his attack area as much as possible, while slowly locking onto the movements of Morel and others with his extraordinary sense of smell.

Then, he used the Chimera Ant's unique electrical wave communication method to relay Morel and the others' location in real time.

With the battlefield information provided by Welfin, the Chimera Ants, who were originally like headless flies, suddenly gained clear targets.

However, the changes in their Aura were too drastic.

In addition, Morel and the others were all extremely experienced Nen Users, so they instantly detected the anomaly.

So, with the help of their rich combat experience, Morel and the others decisively stopped using Zetsu and thus resisted this wave of attacks from the Chimera Ants.

'Not En... but biological tracking instincts?'

Although his tactic was countered, Morel was not discouraged. He simply put away the white smoke and gathered his Manifested Aura that was scattered around on his body.

As the white smoke disappeared, dozens of Chimera Ants' corpses appeared on the ground.

Morel, Kanzai, Knov, and Bushidora stood scattered among the remains.

"How much longer... must we hold on?"

Bushidora quickly glanced at the Chimera Ants around him, who were eyeing him eagerly, his face full of undisguised solemnity.

Ever since the King's aura passed through here, Bushidora's fighting spirit has reached its lowest point, which led to this untimely question.

Morel, Kanzai and Knov did not answer Bushidora's question.

Because even they didn't know how long they have to persist.

Maybe-

They need to persevere until death!

The Chimera Ant Squadron Leaders and Officers all stared at Morel and his men as if they were looking at delicious food.

The Chimera Ants' Manifested Aura is already stronger than that of humans, and now that they are gathered together, the Aura they exude cannot be underestimated.

If one's will is not strong enough, they might collapse directly in such a situation.

It can even be said that-

The vast majority of Nen Users cannot guarantee their safety in this situation.

"Haha, you have no other options, right?"

The cheetah Chimera Ant, Cheetu, pointed at Morel, his tone full of mockery.

Of course, there was no way Morel would respond to Cheetu's ridicule.

He put the mouthpiece of the big pipe into his mouth, preparing to create Deep Purple Soldiers to continue to implement the delaying tactics.

Seeing that Morel showed no reaction, Cheetu narrowed his eyes and suddenly launched an attack in anger.

His figure turned into a stream of light and went straight towards Morel at an extremely fast speed.

But at this moment-

A sharp black needle fell from the sky, landing exactly on the trajectory of Cheetu's attack.

Cheetu reacted very quickly and barely halted in time.

The black needle flashed past his nose and pierced the ground vertically.

"What the—?!"

Cheetu looked down at the pitch-black needle-like object standing upright on the ground, thinking to himself, 'If I hadn't reacted quickly enough, I might have been pierced through the head by this thing.'

Just as Cheetu opened his mouth to express his doubts, Moses suddenly appeared, conjured his black sword, and stabbed it into Cheetu's open mouth without even looking.

Squelch!

A burst of blood spurted out of Cheetu's mouth. He stared blankly at Moses who suddenly appeared, and the confusion in his eyes was replaced by surprise.

The surrounding Chimera Ants were all shocked when they saw this scene.

Especially the Lion Chimera Ant, Leol, who was not only surprised, but also inevitably showed a hint of fear.

Because he knew that this human, who had suddenly appeared, had the strength to suppress and injure Pitou!

That's right,

This human being is also a complete monster!

"Retreat."

Moses, who had teleported over, turned his back to Cheetu, then looked up at Morel and the others in front of him, his voice filled with an irrefutable commanding tone.

Then, without waiting for Morel and the others to react, Moses released an Aura filled with killing intent.

At the same time-

His eyes, which had turned blood red due to the murderous Aura, slowly swept towards the surrounding Chimera Ants.

Just a single glance-

And the Chimera Ants, who were originally waiting for the opportunity, suddenly felt a chill coming towards them.

Such terrifying killing intent-

Seemed to have brought back some fragmented memories of their past lives.

Or it could be said that, some vague images before their death were forcibly awakened.

So much so that under the ravages of Moses's All Extinct, the Chimera Ants were frozen in place for a moment, and there was a hint of fear in their eyes as they looked towards Moses.

Morel and the others were surprised by Moses's sudden appearance.

But out of trust in Moses, they did not question his order to 'retreat'.
