Initiation

As Noah went deeper, he realized that the part that went into the water was gone, while the water didn't reflect anything, it was almost like going into a place and becoming invisible, but it was clearly a liquid because with each movement they made waves.(Just think about Zetsu Mayfly ability.)

"Y-your body..." Alice saw this while hesitating to enter the water.

"My body is fine." Noah said, as he went deeper and raised his arm, that appeared out of the water in half and the other side was nowhere. The water didn't even reflect the raised arm part.

Alice sighed as she entered the water too and put that aside, Noah was fine, she would be no exception.

Coming in, she admired how her body disappeared into the water and felt the water doing its job of cleaning her body. The water seemed to be made especially for cleaning, when all the stucked dirt into his body seemed to disappear. They were both in the middle of the water, just with their heads out.

The middle was deep, so the two were using their legs to keep their heads above the water. They looked at each other when they felt that the dirty was gone as they wanted to leave, but a voice behind the tree made them pay attention.

"This is a special water... But to explain how it works, I'll have to explain how it's made." Old Miota's voice came out from behind that solid tree, while he didn't want to look at them both. He wasn't a pedophile like certain clowns.

Noah looked at the tree where the voice comes and Alice did the same as they moved their legs to stay on the top.

"There is an energy, something that all living beings have within them..." Miota said, as his voice increased and he took a lecture tone.

"This energy has a name... You can know it as vital energy, or simply aura." Miota spoke as he stooled his arm to the side, showing it to both of them. In his palm, a blue ball appeared, the two saw without difficulty, while Noah thought.

'Emission huh... I hope my Nen type are what I want.' Noah thought, while looking at Miota's explanation, he was curious to see how he would explain.

Alice looked at it as she rubbed her eyes and wondered what it was. It didn't look like anything solid, but at the same time she could see that if she hit her... she'll be in trouble.

"What I'm going to teach is something simple. I'm going to teach Nen, which is what it's the method to control that aura is called, which can also be called Nen." Miota said, as the ball went up and down in his hand, he's showing his control.

"But before that..." When Miota said this, the water seemed to get denser, while Noah and Alice felt something in their body.

'Is the water opening the aura nodes?' Noah thought, altrought he isn't afraid of it, he knew this was common. Alice on the other hand...

"What's going on?" She stuttered while trying to get out of there, but Noah held her.

"Stay calm, it's not bad at all." He spoke as she nodded and began to relax and felt something coming out of her body, while her hair moved as if it were windy in it. Noah was no different, while he felt what he knew to be the aura, being expelled from his body because of the initiation.

The water below them presented some small waves with the shock of the aura. But there was a difference, the waves on Noah's side were bigger than Alice's, but neither noticed, not even Miota, since he wasn't looking.

"Before I can further explain Nen, we need to stop the aura leak of the two of you." Miota said, while wearing En and encompassing the local, so he would be able to notice if they were successfully repressing their auras. 'Noah has an impressive amount of aura for someone who's never trained... Now I understand why Netero sent them.' The old man thought, feeling Nen amount of Noah.

He was not wrong, Noah's Nen was intensified due to the influence of Reiatsu, which strengthened his body passively, and consequently increased his vitality, which is directly associated with vital energy, which is the aura.

"As I said earlier, the aura is the vital energy, and the way it's leaking from the two of you, it's running out at a high rate. If you don't suppress that, you may faint or even die." Miota said.

"So how do we do that?" Alice asked, a little afraid of the possibility of dying, but Noah was calm while waiting for Miota's explanation.

"Well, for that, I'm going to teach you a technique. Focus on the leaking of your auras while trying to stop it from leaking excessively." Miota said, while feeling the aura of both with En.

The both nodded, as they closed their eyes and concentrated. The same moment Noah closed his eyes, he did what Miota said, it was almost as if it were instinctive for him. His aura stopped leaking as he opened his eyes and looked to the tree where the old man was. 'That was a lot easier than expected... Maybe my talent is even bigger than Gon's... Or could it be the influence of Reiatsu?' Noah thought, while the old man was surprised by it.

By the En, he saw that Noah's aura stopped leaking as it was before the same instant he told him what to do. That was a noteworthy act. Moving his focus to Alice, he saw that she was still struggling to do.

Noah also noticed this, as he looked at her face. She was with her eyes closed while her face seemed focused.

After 2 minutes of waiting, she managed to do this, although she still had to focus a little to keep. But she managed to stop all the Aura Nodes from leaking, which was a very rare case.

Miota can't help but realize how much Alice pales in on Noah. But he saw that she was a child with an extremely high talent, she could also become a potential if she work hard, and even if she didn't work hard, he was sure she would be one of the best hunters on the world.

'It's good that they pass the initiation. I wouldn't train someone who wouldn't go through something as simple as that.' Miota thought, while looking at both of them. "What you have just learned is called Ten. It prevents the aura from leaking as it was before. Ten is one of Nen's basic techniques, but i'll explain that when we start training." He said, while looking at the aura of the two with his En, only to see that Noah's aura seemed denser.

"Now is the time to tell you what this water is and what it's doing." Miota said, he knew that the water had already endded its work. "This water was modified by a person, using the same aura that I showed you, and that you has in your body." He said, as he continued.

"There is not only one way to use the aura, but each person has a type in which they are stronger. This is commonly called Nen Types." Miota said, while once again, something else appeared in his hand.

This time it was a small object, a small steel ball.

"There are six types of Nen, and although you are of only one type, it does not mean that you cannot use others, but they will be less efficient than a person of that specific type." Miota said, while thinking about how to explain Nen's types.

"Before I can explain how this work, we need to know the Nen Types of you both, so get out of there and put your clothes on." Miota said, while in front of him there was already a glass with a leaf.

Noah and Alice nodded, while still swim out, while was with Ten on. Noah was making no effort to keep active, it was almost as if he had already been born using Ten, but Alice was having difficulties while she was watching her Ten for not to miss, while swimming.

The two left and Noah began to put on the clothes while looking at Alice who did the same.

'She doesn't seem to be ashamed... Well, after all I'm in the body of an 8 year old boy, it's normal that she doesn't feel ashamed about it...' Noah thought, even with him acting mature, there was no way to ignore his appearance. But he didn't care about that either, at least she wasn't like those boring anime girls who beat up the protagonist just because they're embarrassed.

Because if she was, Noah would be sure to break her hand as soon as she was about to touch his face. He always hated protagonists who let girls do whatever shit they want.

'Now that I think about it... Didn't I just did the same by letting she follow me? Well, at least she gave me money and she can also be a good training partner, it has its advantages as long as she doesn't try to do some shit like those characters.' He thought, after finishing wearing his clothes and so did she.

The two went to where the old man was and saw him with a smoking pipe, sitting in the tree, with a cup in front of him. The cup was with a small leaf floating on the liquid inside. He took a puff on his pipe, pointed to the cup on the floor.

"We'll find out what Nen Type you have." Miota said, while signaling for Noah and Alice to sit next arount to the glass, while was turning off his En.
