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

Chapter 429: Chapter 429 What?!



Those who fall into the Kyoka Suigetsu: Ouroboros illusion are completely controlled by Moses, unable to break free from their manipulated senses.

Ainbo was kicked into the air by Moses without any resistance.

Since Moses targeted the weakest point in Ainbo's aura defense, the kick caused Ainbo to spit out a large amount of blood while midair.

This scene was witnessed by the surrounding soldiers and drew the attention of other members of the Erimo Bandit Group.

"That guy Ainbo... Even after clearing the threats for him, he couldn't even last three minutes."

In the chaotic military camp, a man as nimble as a cheetah noticed Ainbo being sent flying into the sky and couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

With Ainbo's strength, under normal circumstances, as long as the initial threats from the tanks were eliminated, he can basically move around the military camp unhindered by relying on the super high attack and defense capabilities of the Enhancement-Type, and then attract the attention of as many soldiers as possible.

In this way, the pressure on other members when taking action can be reduced to a certain extent.

The man with a cheetah-like figure is a member of the Erimo Bandit Group closest to Ainbo's position. There is also a man as short as a dwarf, who uses iron claws as weapons, near Ainbo's activity area.

Their mission was a decapitation strike. They didn't have to succeed, but they had to throw the military camp into disarray.

Yet before the two of them could act, Ainbo, who was responsible for creating the chaos, had already been severely injured.

The man with the cheetah-like agility was Kargis Saida, a member of the Erimo Bandit Group, codenamed Cheetah.

"I know that once Ainbo gets excited about killing, he will easily get carried away."

Kargis muttered to himself with a dark expression, watching as Ainbo fell to the ground:

"But no matter how arrogant he is, he will ensure the most basic vigilance. As an Enhancer, he was actually defeated so quickly... It seems that there must be another expert besides Heram in the barracks."

Ainbo's bad habit of becoming overly confident had always been a point of frustration for Kargis.

However, Ainbo never showed any intention of correcting himself...

Now that Ainbo had paid the price for his arrogance, Kargis was too lazy to hold Ainbo accountable.

Based on Ainbo's strength, Kargis deduced that the Nen User who seriously injured Einbo was an expert who should not be underestimated.

So-

In order to prevent this unidentified expert from disrupting his companions' actions to steal the ancient artifacts from the tomb, Kargis decided to temporarily give up the decapitation plan and instead hold back this unidentified expert.

Besides, there is still his one companion who can continue to carry out the decapitation plan.

Even if the success rate of one person taking action is very low, it can still serve to divide the military's forces.

Of course, the most important thing is that he chose to rush to Ainbo's aid because he would have the possibility of saving Ainbo's life.

Bang.

Ainbo's massive body hit the ground with a thunderous thud, sending shockwaves through the earth.

The surrounding soldiers looked at Ainbo who was lying motionless on the ground, but no one dared to approach him. They could only look at Moses, who had arrived to save the day.

If it weren't for Moses defeating Ainbo, many more soldiers would have been crushed under that terrifying iron ball.

Facing the gazes coming from all directions, Moses slowly walked toward the fallen Ainbo.

In order to wait for the possible appearance of other members of the Erimo Bandit Group, Moses intentionally slowed his pace.

This casual, unhurried demeanor, in the eyes of the surrounding soldiers, became a symbol of overwhelming strength.

After all-

The iron ball-wielding monster that their combined firepower couldn't stop had been easily dispatched by Moses in less than a minute.

Now, Moses's composed posture as the victor, regardless of his true intentions, allowed the soldiers, who already conquered by his power, to embellish and glorify him in their minds.

However, to Kargis, who was stealthily approaching, Moses's posture displayed an arrogance deeply displeased him.

'That guy Ainbo... Could it be that he's really been knocked senseless?'

Kargis shifted his gaze to the fallen Ainbo.

From his angle, he could clearly see that Ainbo's Aura remained somewhat stable, indicating that while Ainbo had been injured by the young man, he had not lost consciousness or his ability to fight.

Moses continued to slowly approach Ainbo, manipulating illusions to control Ainbo's actions while simultaneously using a shadow clone to monitor the surroundings for any disturbances.

If any other members of the Erimo Bandit Group attempted to get close, the hidden clone would likely detect them immediately.

As the saying goes, 'While the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole lurks behind'.

Every shadow Moses sent out served as the hidden oriole.

Buzz-

Suddenly, Moses felt his phone vibrating in his pocket.

If it was a 'normal battle' situation, Moses would have naturally ignored the phone's vibrations.

But in the current situation, he had every reason to answer the call.

Moses casually pulled out his phone and answered the call under the watchful eyes of those around him.

The caller was none other than Wright, who had been out of contact for quite some time.

"Moses, I just saw your message."

Wright's voice came from the phone, and his voice was weak, as if he had great difficulty to speak.

Moses immediately noticed this, and thinking that Wright had been out of contact for a while, he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with you? Are you injured?"

"Yeah, I got hurt while pursuing a criminal. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to barely survive..."

There was a hint of bitterness in Wright's tone.

It wasn't the near-death experience that frustrated him, but rather his constant failure to take the final step toward earning the Single Star Hunter title.

Perhaps, given his current abilities, he really shouldn't be obsessed with using the achievement of hunting A-Class criminals as the final stepping stone to be promoted to Single Star.

This pursuit, which seemed to be aimed at achieving a milestone, actually blocked his path to Single Star Hunter status.

If he had just focused on hunting down B-Class criminals, with the achievements he had accumulated so far, he might have already obtained the Single Star title.

When Moses heard Wright's words about barely surviving, he couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Wright, you didn't break the agreement, did you?"

"…"

After a brief silence, Wright chuckled bitterly and said, "I didn't go after the Phantom Troupe, but… I did set my sights on another A-Class criminal group."

"Which one?"

As Moses asked, he sighed inwardly.

He knew Wright's goal was to earn a one-star title, but he couldn't understand why Wright was so fixated on hunting down A-Class criminals...

He could only conclude that everyone has their own pursuits.

"The Erimo Bandit Group."

Wright slowly revealed the name of the group.

Moses raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on Ainbo, and asked, "Does a guy named Ainbo, who uses an iron ball, have anything to do with your injuries?"

"…"

Another brief silence followed before Wright replied in a low voice: "I got hit by his iron ball once..."

"I see."

Moses smirked slightly and said, "Well, isn't that a coincidence? That guy's right in front of me, and he's about to die."

"What?!"

Wright, on the other end of the phone, was stunned. His brain went completely blank for a moment and he was at a complete loss for words.
