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

Outside, on the open ground beside the warehouse, the ship bearing the Review Committee's mark slowly descended.

Satotz, who had been hiding in the dark, emerged from the corner upon seeing the airship arrive.

As one of this year's examiners, Satotz was interested in witnessing the entire Hunter Exam, and he was also curious about what kind of test Moses would present.

The airship landed steadily, and as the gangway lowered, Beans hurriedly ran down to meet them.

"Mr. Moses..."

Running down the gangway, Beans looked at Moses, who had already walked out, and habitually raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Before Beans could say anything more, Moses cut him off, "I know. Arrange for the examinees to board the airship."

"Huh? Oh, yes, of course!"

Beans was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that Moses wouldn't cause any trouble in the third phase, so he let out a small sigh of relief.

From the Review Committee's perspective, this year's examinees were exceptionally qualified.

Therefore, they hope that Moses can take the third phase seriously.

Watching Moses boarded the airship first, Beans took a deep breath and rushed back towards the warehouse.

Menchi and Buhara, who had just emerged from the warehouse, glanced at the hurried Beans, greeted him, and boarded the airship on their own.

Satotz, who watched the second phase's process, followed suit and boarded the airship's gangway first.

Moments later, under Beans's orderly instructions, all the examinees boarded the airship.

Then, the airship slowly took off.

In a single cabin aboard, Moses stood by the window, gazing downward as he organized his thoughts for the third phase's test rules.

Knock, knock-

The sound of someone knocking on the door interrupted his contemplation.

"Come in."

Squeak-

The door creaked open, and Beans walked into the room.

"Mr. Moses, the captain wants to know our destination."

"Any uninhabited island will do. Preferably, we can arrive by noon tomorrow. As for the specific location, I'll leave that to the captain's judgment."

Moses looked at Beans and said casually.

Beans chuckled awkwardly when he heard this. He always felt that Moses's style was becoming more and more like that of Netero and Ging.

'Are all powerful Pro Hunters like this?'

Sighing in his heart, Beans nodded towards Moses, indicating his understanding.

In order to avoid delays in the journey, Beans did not return to the captain's room. Instead, he walked to the room's built-in phone, dialed the captain, and relayed Moses's instructions.

After a brief exchange, he set down the phone.

"Where is the Chairman?"

Moses saw Beans hang up the phone and asked.

Beans turned to look at Moses, hesitatingly said, "The Chairman… he..."

"Hmm?"

Moses raised an eyebrow.

Beans took a deep breath and forced himself to say: "Chairman said that he accidentally ate too much last night and he needs to take a walk to help his digestion."

"Well, he is over a hundred years old after all. It's understandable if his digestion isn't what it used to be."

Moses threw a mild jab at Netero.

He roughly guessed what Netero meant by 'walk to help his digestion'.

Even with him here as a butterfly, the two little kids, Killua and Gon, still couldn't escape Netero's clutches.

Beans looked up at Moses, who had a calm expression, and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

The room fell into a still silence for several seconds.

Beans suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and said softly, "Mr. Moses, if there's nothing else, I'll get back to my tasks now..."

"Mm."

Moses replied absentmindedly.

Seeing this, Beans turned to leave.

"Wait."

Moses called out suddenly.

Beans, who had already walked to the door, stopped abruptly, turned around and looked at Moses with a questioning look on his face.

"I have something I want to ask you."

Moses had thought of Illumi and gestured towards the sofa as an invitation to sit.

"Okay."

Beans nodded, then walked to the sofa and sat down.

Moses then sat opposite him and asked directly, "Did the Review Committee send anyone to assist examinee No. 301?"

"Yes."

Hearing Moses's question concerning examinee No. 301, Beans instinctively adjusted his sitting posture.

Moses kept his gaze on Beans and asked, "Then, is the Review Committee aware of examinee No. 301's actions during the exam?"

"Yes."

Beans's expression turned serious.

He didn't expect Moses to suddenly ask such a question, but then he thought of Moses's profession and suddenly understood a little.

Among all types of Hunters, Blacklist Hunters undoubtedly made up the largest group. Some Blacklist Hunters pursued fame and money, while others pursued justice.

In Beans's view, Moses was without a doubt the latter.

With this in mind, Beans explained:

"For every examinee who comes to take the Hunter Exam, the Review Committee has an obligation to ensure their safety after failing. This is to maintain a positive cycle for the Hunter Exam."

"I know."

Moses nodded.

After taking on the role of examiner, he'd looked into some of the rules of the Hunter Exam. One such rule was that anyone had the right to apply for the Hunter Exam.

This also explained why characters like Shalnark were able to obtain a Hunter License in the original work, and why Hisoka, who caused chaos in the previous Hunter Exam, could participate this year.

It was as if 'good and evil' were qualities irrelevant to the Hunter Exam.

In this matter, the attitude of the Review Committee can be described as extreme indifference.

Therefore, even after Illumi did that, not only would the Review Committee avoid holding him accountable, but they would also uphold their duty to assist him.

"That's why I'm not too fond of the Hunter Exam."

Moses leaned back on the sofa.

Beans was slightly stunned and didn't know how to respond.

Moses gazed at him calmly, "To be more precise, I don't like some of the rules of the Hunter Exam."

"I feel the same way about that."

Beans murmured in agreement.

Compared with fulfilling the rescue mission, the rule he disagrees with most is accepting applications from anyone.

Moses raised his hand to his chin and asked curiously, "Are these rules made by Chairman Netero?"

"No."

Beans shook his head and said, "The person who made these rules was the first Chairman of the Hunter Association."

"Is that so…"

Moses looked slightly surprised and said seriously: "If I ever became the Chairman, the first thing I will do is to change these outdated rules."

"Uh…"

Beans didn't know how to respond again.

Looking at Beans, who was speechless for a moment, Moses chuckled and said, "Alright, I don't have anything else to ask, Beans, go and get busy."

"Okay."

Beans slowly stood up and walked towards the door, but he subconsciously stopped.

He really wanted to know if Moses was joking...

But in the end, he couldn't speak and proceeded to the door.

Meanwhile-

Outside in the hallway.

Menchi, Buhara, and Satotz stood with expressions of surprise.

They had overheard Moses' remark about 'If I became the Chairman'.

Inside the room.

Beans walked slowly to the door.

Moses lowered his gaze, basically determining the content for the third phase.

And that is-

Battle Royale for the number plates!

However…

All the candidates would attempt to seize his number plate zero.

Given that only half of the qualified examinees will be retained, Moses would have them form teams and prepare three number plates.
