The Protagonist's Career Starting From Hunter

When Bailang was seen, Illumi immediately noticed the tangled aura surrounding Bailang.

In terms of the way the aura emerged, it was just a basic "entanglement," but in terms of the amount of aura, it could easily compare to the "firmness" of many Nen users.

Just this amount of aura undoubtedly indicated that Bailang was not an ordinary person.

In other words, this person had the ability to threaten Killua's life.

From Illumi's perspective, his younger brother was mixed up with dubious individuals. If Bailang were to make a move, there was a possibility that his younger brother could be harmed or even killed.

In this situation, Illumi could only endure.

......

"Illumi has arrived, huh? He probably noticed me and Killua just now... Speaking of this guy's personality, he seems unresponsive, but he might be thinking about how to kill me right now..."

Illumi's appearance also caught Bailang's attention immediately.

Illumi's actions were very discreet. In the eyes of others, he just casually glanced at Bailang and Killua in the corner, then naturally averted his gaze.

But in Bailang's eyes...

Considering the other party's perverse possessiveness towards Killua, how could he possibly remain as calm as he appeared when he discovered that they were together?

"What's wrong? Do you know this person?"

Killua also instinctively glanced at Illumi.

But unfortunately, he didn't recognize him as his older brother.

However, when Killua noticed Bailang staring at Illumi, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I was afraid you would be scared, so I'll find a suitable opportunity to explain later."

Bailang also naturally averted his gaze from Illumi.

Upon hearing this, Killua became even more curious.

But he still had self-control.

From Bailang's reaction, he sensed that the person just now was likely not an ordinary individual, so he nodded to indicate his understanding.

Since the lesson was over, Bailang called Pansy, who had been waiting nearby, and the three of them chatted in the corner while waiting for the Hunter exam to begin.

"What are they talking about? Why is Killua talking to the other person for so long? Damn it, I want to know, but Killua happens to have his back turned towards me. Even if I wanted to read their lips, I wouldn't have the chance... Well, that's good. Killua truly deserves to be the best. He has already integrated the ability to hide information into his instincts..."

Illumi, who had obtained a badge from the bean-faced man, quickly blended into the crowd.

Although his strange appearance made the people around him subconsciously move away, Illumi clearly didn't mind. Instead, he secretly continued to observe the situation with his peripheral vision, focusing on his younger brother.

With his skills, observing with his peripheral vision was enough for him to clearly see that Killua was constantly talking to someone he had already put on his hit list.

Just as Illumi was relieved that Killua wasn't giving anyone the chance to interpret their conversation through lip-reading, suddenly, his eyes widened.

The reason was simple. He didn't know what Killua and Bailang had talked about, but Bailang skillfully started to twist Killua's white hair.

And from observing their backs, Killua... hadn't resisted?

This scene, which entered Illumi's peripheral vision, almost made him unable to control his killing intent.

"Damn it, I must kill this person. How dare he... This is something even I haven't experienced..."

Suppressing his killing intent with all his might, but within Illumi's heart, there was a terrifying murderous intent surging like a tsunami.

Even an image of a roaring figure that didn't match his usual appearance seemed to appear in his mind.

"Hmm... Illumi looks a bit strange."

Illumi's arrival also caught the attention of someone, and that was Hisoka.

His relationship with Illumi was very special, well... it was probably something like more than friends but less than lovers!

In short, because of their close relationship, Hisoka noticed that something seemed off with Illumi's emotions when he paid attention to him.

A question mark seemed to appear above his head.

Unconsciously, he silently observed.

New candidates continued to arrive.

Quietly, nearly four hundred people had already gathered in the tunnel.

Ding~!

Once again, the sound of an elevator door opening rang out, followed by three people walking out of the elevator.

"Someone else has arrived..."

"Three people? Are they a team?"

"They seem pretty ordinary, probably not a threat."

"........"

Every time the elevator opened, it meant an increase in competitors, and with each new arrival, it attracted the attention of the people in the tunnel.

This time was no exception.

When the candidates in the tunnel saw three people suddenly walk out of the elevator, they were either surprised, wary, or alert...

These three people seemed to increase in age.

The youngest was a child with a hedgehog-like head covered in green.

In the middle was a beautiful youth whose gender was difficult to discern.

The oldest was a middle-aged man wearing a suit and sunglasses.

"Huh!"

In a corner of the tunnel, Killua, who was chatting with Bailang and Pengsi to pass the time, habitually glanced over when he noticed new candidates arriving.

But with just one glance, his face immediately showed surprise.

Bailang and Pengsi also noticed Killua's reaction.

"Killua, that hedgehog-headed kid looks about the same age as you!"

Following Killua's line of sight, Pengsi looked at the three newcomers. When she realized that one of them was around the same age as Killua, she was also somewhat surprised.

Although the Hunter Exam had not officially started yet, searching for the location of the exam was already a kind of preliminary round.

It could be said that the people who could come here were already considered elites.

For someone like Killua at his age, it was already rare to appear, and now another one had come, naturally causing astonishment.

Especially since Pengsi already knew Killua's background.

As a member of the Zoldyck family, she could understand how Killua could come here, but what about this person now? Could it be that they also had some special background?

"Yeah, they do look about the same age as me." Upon hearing Pengsi's words, Killua nodded slightly, his eyes filled with curiosity as he observed.
