Chapter 114: What Is Next?

.......

His vision has already engulfed most of the known world and its working its way to engulf the whole world and much more.

To a certain extent, everything is but a chessboard so... So one can only wonder... how many chess matches is he playing? and how many is he manipulating from the shadows? one can only wonder.

Yasuo took a sip enjoying the hot coffee, a delicacy he can never say no to. He stroked his earring with his eyes glittering as he looked at what his eyes can see.

He was sitting in his lab in the Kakin empire near the capital, a lab that only became more and more secure the more time passes.

But with that, the things inside also continued to increase and become richer with new strange things appearing from time to time.

And now, he is looking at his newest collection placed in an isolated large room with the genetic elixir machine.

The collection is quite simple really consisting of a special kind of animal or as hunters call them, magical beasts but these are not just normal magical beasts, these ones are special. T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

A type of magical beasts whose creation is unknown, beasts whose source is a mother beast which drifted through the sea from an unknown location, drifted into that particular large Island where it created its nest... Chimera Ants.

And tens of such Ants could be seen in the lab in all kinds of shapes and colors, only ones that picked his interest are the ones in the lab.

Chimera ants with natural abilities that are useful or could be useful in the future or simply ones that interest him.

Yasuo of course didn't waste time since the incident between Kite and Pitou, he made use of that time to study Chimera ants thoroughly especially the special bunch of them.

He thoroughly studied their DNA memorizing every sequence of it as well as doing several experiments on each of the specimens he has.

And he made sure to get the best specimens he can since he can't go after royal guards as of yet for a very specific reason.

Those specimens consist of a few squadron leaders and other lower rank ants though he has other targets in mind, those are ones he can't take for now.

So with that as a goal, he 'Kidnapped' a few ants here and there leaving the ones that are useless to him or the ones that will be more useful when they awaken Nen and create their abilities.

His experiments were quite simple, DNA-focused experiments as this are what his future is gonna be for quite a while.

It's never more than what Yasuo learns nor will what he learns ever be enough... And he has come to accept that.

So once a new challenge showed up, a challenge that could potentially be stronger than his previous one albeit there is a huge weakness that even the new challenge seems to have as well as most of the ants.

All of them are newborns and their experience and wisdom are lacking no matter how intelligent they are.

Once that challenge appeared he decided to test himself against something or someone that isn't Yasuo and if he failed, he'll just have to use some extreme measures.

"You're right, such things just aren't for us."

Then Netero turned his head looking at Yasuo who was casually taking sips of coffee then asked, "So is everything going well, or do you need my help? It may not be that much but every bit counts."

Zeno and Silva didn't quite get what he means, after all, Yasuo just won't tell them the information unless he has to and Zigg just can't tell them anything.

"Nah, I'm good, it's not really a problem." Simply answered the young Zoldyck in the room to which Netero nodded understanding a bit of Yasuo's personality then he had a casual talk with Zeno for a few minutes catching up.

Silva just waited until they finish knowing the Hunter's Chairman wouldn't come here unless necessary which means he has an important mission for the Zoldycks and he was right as Zeno wondered.

"So... what are you really here for? It's not just for catching up, is it?"

Netero slightly smiled shaking his head, "Of course not... I have a mission for all the three of you and it's quite an important one.

I'm sure you already know of what's happening but there is a species called Chimera ants and well, they're a highly dangerous threat."

Netero continued once they nodded confirming what he said, "The main targets are the Royal guards and the king with the latter being my target so I want to hire the three of you.

Zeno, I want you to exterminate as many of them as possible but your main target is to make sure I have some time alone with the King."

Netero then looked at Silva adding, "Your target is just to exterminate as many of them as possible and none of you should worry, if you deemed an opponent deadly even for you then you can retreat."

Then he looked at the last person in the room, the dark-haired man that seems to be in a daze as if he has no interest in the subject but Netero knows.

He knows what kind of person this man is, he definitely already knows of the Chimera ants and must've taken quite a few to 'Research', such strange creatures definitely won't escape his tight grasp.

Netero's eyes gleamed for a split second before saying, "As for you... All I want you to do is to make sure the King is dead as well as the other smaller ants... Without spoiling my fun of course.

I'm sure you understand my request clearly and I presume you accept?"
