Chapter 228 How Is This Possible...

He can't teach Killua Nen.

This is a decision Moses made after careful consideration.

While he could potentially earn substantial rewards from Perception by forming a master-disciple relationship with Killua, it would also incur the wrath of the Zoldyck Family.

In the previous incident with Illumi, the Zoldyck Family had ordered Illumi to return home directly, which saved Moses a lot of trouble.

However, even though the way of Zoldyck Family deal with this matter is very fair, it didn't mean Moses could intervene in Killua's growth as he wishes.

In the original work, the Zoldyck Family never allowed Killua to come into contact with Nen. Moses knew there must be a reason for that.

So if he casually helps Killua learn Nen now, then Illumi, who had been ordered to return home, would definitely take this opportunity to cause trouble, even resorting to his family's power to deal with him.

Helping Killua learn Nen is definitely something the Zoldyck Family wouldn't want to see.

Moses could even imagine that if Tsubone saw that Killua had learned Nen tomorrow, she would probably rush into the room and tie him up.

After being rejected by Moses, Killua bowed his head in silence.

Since Illumi was beaten twice by Moses, Killua is not worried about the threat that Illumi will pose to Moses.

But Tsubone is different.

Killua couldn't let Moses take risks because of his curiosity.

"Sorry."

After thinking about it, Killua looked up at Moses, like a child who had done something wrong, and apologized softly, "It was my willful request that troubles you..."

"How could that be."

Moses lowered his eyelids slightly, feeling a bit complicated.

'In another two years…'

'The cute little Killua in front of me will leave the Heavens Arena and return to his home on Kukuroo Mountains.'

'Then, under Illumi's extremely manipulative and deformed oppressive education, he would walk into the darkness step by step.'

'Perhaps by then, the 6-year-old Killua in front of me will would also be buried in the darkness.'

Despite knowing what was going to happen, Moses could do nothing about it.

After all, his current little arms can't do anything against the Zoldyck Family.

After sending Killua away, Moses didn't start his usual training routine. Instead, he called Neil and arranged to meet him.

Before making the call, Moses was mentally prepared to receive harsh words.

Unexpectedly, Neil's attitude on the phone was pretty good, and he straightforwardly agreed to Moses's request for a meeting.

Ten minutes later.

Moses arrived at a bar in the Heavens Arena and casually found a seat, waiting for Neil to arrive.

Approximately ten minutes later…

Moses saw Neil open the door and walk into the bar, his eyes briefly scanning over the duffel bag on Neil's back.

Even his luggage was packed, indicating that he didn't have the qualifications for a second registration.

That is to say—

In today's match, he personally ended Neil's journey in the Heavens Arena.

"This way."

Moses raised his hand and beckoned Neil over from the doorway.

Following the sound, Neil approached Moses's table briskly.

Casually throwing his simple duffel bag onto a nearby chair, Neil sat down directly.

"Want something to drink?"

Moses asked and at the same time raised his hand to call the waiter not far away.

Neil didn't hesitate and replied: "Strong liquor, the more expensive, the better. Bring three bottles."

"Okay."

Moses nodded and then conveyed Neil's request to the waiter.

Neil was watching from the side. When the waiter walked away, he leaned back on the chair, narrowing his eyes as he asked:

", what's the reason for calling me here? You're not thinking of experiencing the winner's sense of superiority from me again, right?"

"I need your ability."

Moses didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Haha…"

Neil couldn't help but burst into laughter at the remark, and then mocked:

"So, you're trying to recruit me? Heh, your judgment is pretty poor, isn't it? If I were worthy of being recruited by you, I wouldn't have been toyed with like that in the ring today."

"Can you stop saying things that has nothing to do with this 'topic'?"

Moses stared calmly at Neil's face, and said without mincing words: "I have the ability to make you stronger in a short period of time. In exchange, I want you to be my sparring partner."

"Huh?"

Neil's laughter gradually subsided, and he frowned at Moses.

This proposition seemed a bit unbelievable to him, but Moses didn't seem like he was joking.

Moses continued: "It's up to you to believe it or not, and it's up to you what to choose. I'll only give you one day to think about it."

"…"

Neil fell silent, unsure of what to say for a moment.

The idea of becoming stronger in a short time was the reason he was still sitting here.

"If you don't provide some convincing evidence, how do you expect people to believe you?"

After a while, Neil was still a little moved after all, so he raised his eyes and stared straight at Moses.

"Do you know what 'Nen Attributes' are?"

Moses countered with a question.

Hearing Moses's question, Neil furrowed his brows even tighter and immediately shook his head.

He subconsciously felt that the term 'Nen Attributes' was likely related to the power he currently used, something he called 'Aura'.

But based on this speculative association alone, he couldn't figure out what Nen Attributes Moses mentioned were.

Observing Neil's reaction, Moses once again confirmed that Neil was a self-taught Nen User.

In the Heavens Arena, there are quite a few self-taught Nen Users like Neil. They knew little about the Nen System and had to rely on trial and error.

They didn't know what Nen Attributes were, let alone the Water Divination Test used to determine them.

Without knowing their Nen Attributes, they developed their own abilities and tactics based on their needs and instincts.

If they were lucky, they might accidentally develop Nen Abilities that matched their Nen Attributes.

However, the vast majority of the contestants were on the wrong path, with the only difference being the degree of deviation.

And people like Neil can be said to be the worst examples of this.

"If you want to hear the 'answer'," Moses said, looking at Neil, who seemed slightly moved, "make your decision within a day."

At this moment, the waiter brought over the three bottles of liquor.

Moses casually placed a stack of bills onto the waiter's tray and prepared to leave.

"Wait."

Neil called out to Moses at this moment.

Moses halted his steps when he heard this.

Looking at Moses's back, Neil said solemnly: "I... I'm willing to be your sparring partner."

"Take the liquors and follow me."

Moses glanced back at Neil before heading towards the bar's exit.

Neil quickly stuffed the three bottles of liquor that had just been brought to the table into his duffel bag, and then quickly followed Moses.

Once outside the bar, Moses applied for the use of a ring at the Heavens Arena and called Menchi to come over.

Half an hour later, Menchi arrived at the empty venue.

"Master, why is he here?!"

Menchi couldn't hide her surprise when she saw Neil standing on the ring.

"I'll explain later. Come up first."

Moses gestured for Menchi to come up onto the ring.

Hearing this, Menchi stepped onto the ring as quickly as possible.

At this moment, Neil's heart was racing.

Before Menchi arrived, Moses briefly described some Nen-related knowledge to Neil. This is equivalent to opening a new door for Neil.

"Whip."

Moses stretched out his hand towards Neil.

Neil quickly handed over the whip.

Moses took the whip and asked, "What was the name of the first move you used?"

"Ripple!"

Neil replied promptly.

Moses nodded and gathered his Nen on the whip.

Snap!

He then lashed the whip forward.

Accompanied by an airburst, the whip struck the ground, and the Nen attached to it shot out. Like a sharp sword, the Nen leave a longer sword mark on the ring than the whip itself.

"How this possible…!!"

Seeing this astonishing scene, Neil's eyes widened immediately and he was so shocked that he couldn't rendered speechless.

'That's my Ripple…'

'But how did it have such power?!'

Menchi, who is standing nearby, also showed a surprised expression.

'Master... actually learned that guy's move?!'
