After having a clearer understanding of the strength and heritage of the Seirin Group, Moses's desire to become powerful as soon as possible naturally became even stronger.
It has only been less than a month since I learned Ten, but he has become proficient in using the Four Fundamental Techniques, and has developed his own Nen ability - Soul Echo.
This progress is already very astonishing.
But Moses was still not satisfied.
He...wanted to go even faster.
Because, compared to those potential enemies, who have immersed themselves in Nen ability system for ten, twenty, or even thirty years...
The 'time' he entered the threshold is too short, and he severely lacks the important experience accumulated with 'time'.
The existence of Perception gave him an opportunity to speed up, but it's still far from enough.
He wants to shorten the 'time' gap faster,
Hence, what he wants is a high-speed highway without speed limits.
Shared Training Results.
From the perspective of the Nen system, it is completely feasible.
The problem is-
To what extent must the conditions be met to have this ability?
Moses stared at the shadow figure. Although his thoughts were active, he was not naive enough to think that this ability mechanism could be completed overnight.
If the mission level of the Hunter Association is used as a reference value—
The Nen skill, Hatsu, which can determine the upper limit and effect of Nen abilities, needs to reach at least D or E-Level before the ability effect of Shared Vision can be added to the initial form of "Soul Echo".
It can also be understood this way:
The development level of the Shared Vision ability should be between D-Level and E-Level.
So as long as the level of Hatsu is raised to D-Level, it should be possible to stably develop the ability of Shared Vision.
At that time, Moses's Nen skills was just at the entry level, and his Hatsu's level was the lowest G-Level. Normally, it was impossible to develop the ability of Shared Vision.
However, the birth of "Soul Echo" is more inclined to the type of 'Innate Awakening' in essence. In a sense, it has unlocked some shackles from the Nen system right from the beginning.
In addition, Moses used Vows and Limitations, which doubled the effect, allowing his G-Level Hatsu to produce at least an E-Level effect.
So, it smoothly allowed "Soul Echo" to have the ability of Shared Vision.
As for the development level of "Shared Training Results", it is initially estimated to be around B-Level.
Moses's current Hatsu, after the enhancement from Perception, has just reached F-Level. To develop the ability of "Shared Training Results", which is at around B-Level, it is unknown how strict the limitations must be.
Damage sharing + double damage?
Thinking of this, Moses temporarily suppressed the idea of developing the ability "Shared Training Results".
Aiming too high is fatal in Nen training.
Moreover, compared to logistic-type ability like Shared Training Results, abilities like Shared Vision and Mimic Appearance, which can instantly multiply Soul Echo's tactical value several times, have a higher priority.
After a brief consideration, Moses decided to develop the ability Mimic Appearance first.
But before that, he needed to make good use of the one-month training buff given by Perception.
Moses slowly closed his eyes, and in the state of Zetsu, the accumulated pain in his body slowly diminished, and the consumed Aura gradually recovered.
Using A, B, C, D, E, F, G as the standard for evaluating and converting various levels of Nen skills is, strictly speaking, just an estimation method that cannot guarantee accuracy.
However, among many Nen users, quite a few people use this method to estimate their own or the enemy's level.
There are many similar conversion methods.
Some Nen users use a conversion method such as elementary, intermediate, advanced. Some Nen users scores on a 100-point basis, while some Nen users will directly apply the star system of the Hunter Association.
Inclining to numerical conversion methods, there are also conceptualized estimates such as level 1, level 2, and level 3 in the game level, or conceptual values like 100 Aura and 1000 Aura.
Just like Nen ability, these estimation methods developed based on individual usage habits can be diverse and peculiar.
If a Hacker Hunter has such a need for estimation methods, it would not be surprising if they develop an ability similar to the 'attribute panel'.
The world of Nen abilities is so free and bizarre.
Moses uses the mission levels as an estimation method just for his own convenience to have a rough idea and direction.
In his wandering thoughts, Moses fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning.
Moses woke up, and briefly freshened up in the bathroom.
He doesn't plan to have breakfast afterwards. Instead, he started with Ren, depleting his potential Aura completely.
When Lisha came to the office carrying a big bag of food, she saw Moses lying on the ground.
"Training also requires a balance of work and rest."
Lisha reminded, placing the food on the table in the rest area: "Don't overdo it and harm your body."
"Um, I will take 'appropriate' breaks."
Moses replied perfunctory, then gets up from the ground.
'Is it considered a balance of work and rest to beat up the shadow dummy every night before bed?'
If Lisha knew about this, she might transform into her lawyer form immediately.
"Come and eat."
Lisha opened the bag, then swiftly taking out boxes of meat and vegetables and placing them on the table.
Moses walked over. Seeing the table almost full of various dishes, his eyes revealed a surprised expression.
By rough estimation, there were at least twenty portions of food on the table.
"Sister Lisha, do you usually eat this much?"
"I've already eaten."
"Huh? So, are these all for me?"
"Of course. If it's not enough, I can get the restaurant send more."
"It's enough, it's enough…"
Moses quickly waved his hand.
He was indeed very hungry at the moment, but even so, he couldn't eat that much.
Lisha put away the empty bag and said: "You can't blindly 'consume' your body. Timely replenishment of energy is also crucial."
Last night, she observed Moses's training pattern, which was almost like madness, lacking any moderation. Although it could yield efficiency, it might also harm his body.
Based on this judgment, she brought so much food early in the morning. Moreover, she specially ordered some of the dishes from the restaurant, some of which had medicinal supplement effects.
"Thank you… Um, I got it, Sister Lisha."
Hearing Lisha's words, Moses was first surprised, then nodded silently.
Lisha smiled and said, "Go ahead and eat. I'll go catch up some sleep. Well... today is a day off, so I want to sleep until I wake up naturally. If there's nothing urgent, don't wake me up."
"Okay."
Moses glanced at Lisha's panda-like dark circles and nodded.
Lisha then walked toward the partitioned area.
If it wasn't for providing Moses with food, Lisha would have slept in the apartment until the end of time.
Looking at Lisha's back, Moses felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.
'In Lisha's heart, Cheadle must be an especially important existence, which is why she could treat me with such care and affection.'
"Eat first and then train."
Moses calmed down, and with great effort, he cleared the table of the dishes. Then, without stopping, he began another round of training.
He trained until noon, and to his surprise, around twelve o'clock, several restaurant's staff brought in a lot of dishes.
Moses surprised, understood that this was arranged by Lisha in advance.
Although he knew that Lisha was treating him well because of Cheadle, this thoughtful care increased his goodwill toward her even more.
After quickly finishing the dishes sent by the restaurant, Moses continued his training.
Since entering the threshold of Nen, he no longer read books and spent most of his leisure time on training.
Time passed-
And in the evening, as the sun set in the west, Moses opened his eyes, and his energy was almost fully recovered.
'The duration of Ren has been extended to 16 minutes, an improvement of about 1 minute. It seems that the effect of this training buff is even better than expected.'
Moses raised his head and looked at the clock on the wall, recalling the training process from over an hour ago.
His Ren that could only last for 15 minutes unexpectedly made substantial progress, successfully breaking through to 16 minutes.
Although there was an element of training to the point of neglecting food and sleep, the main reason was the increased efficiency from the training buff.
'One round takes about 100 minutes, with nearly 20 minutes of Ren, and about 80 minutes of rest time.'
Moses, who had just tasted the sweetness of success, was calculating in his mind: 'If the rest time can be shortened by a third, the training efficiency will be even better...'
The nearly 80 minutes of recovery time made Moses quite regretful, having a feeling as if he were wasting the training buff.
If only he could freeze the training buff's time during rest.
Unfortunately, it's just wishful thinking.
"Hmm…"
Suddenly, Moses thought of Biscuit, whom he encountered on the airship.
More accurately, he thought of Biscuit's Nen ability, Magical Esthetician.
It is a humanoid Nen Beast belonging to the Conjuration category, with no offensive capabilities. Similar to Cheadle's "Diagnostic Register", it also belonged to the non-combat type abilities.
However, the most remarkable aspect of the Magical Esthetician lies in her ability to eliminate fatigue through massage and simultaneously accelerate the target's physical recovery.
'This significant reduction in rest time through massage, combined with the doubled training buff...'
'It's simply a perfect match!'
Moses suddenly felt a surge of excitement. However, he quickly suppressed the unrealistic thoughts and earnestly began a new round of training.
Tap, tap, tap…
Footsteps came from behind.
Hearing the sound of Lisha's footsteps, Moses remained unaffected, and still maintained his Ren state.
"It's already this late…"
Lisha, while yawning, walked over, glancing at the dim sky outside.
She has slept since morning, but the dark circles under her eyes show no sign of improvement.
"Moses, what do you want for dinner?"
Stretching her body, Lisha looked at Moses, who was still training diligently.
"Anything is fine."
Moses replied succinctly.
Hearing this, Lisha chuckled and said, "Then, I'll make a reservation at a random place."
As she said that, she took out her phone and was about to call the restaurant, but she saw a text message from her client.
The message was an invitation for dinner, also to discuss about the progress of the upcoming lawsuit.
"Today is a rare day off, but since you informed me through a text message, I'll reluctantly accept your invitation."
After some consideration, Lisha decided to accept the appointment.
If the client had called to wake her up, the outcome might have been different.
"Moses, accompany me to meet a client."
"Okay."
Although Moses really wanted to stay in the office to train, he was too embarrassed to refuse Lisha's invitation, so he could only reluctantly agree.
"I'll go to the bathroom first, Moses, you can wait for me downstairs."
Lisha touched her messy hair, knowing she couldn't meet a client with this just-woke-up appearance.
Moses acknowledged with a sound, then went downstairs ahead of her.
Across the street from the law firm was a cafe.
At this moment, Biscuit was sitting by the window, staring at Covariant Law Firm across the street, tapping her fingers on the table.
"He's not coming out, huh…"
Biscuit stopped tapping the table and crossed her arms, drooping her eyelids.
In order to create a chance encounter, she had been watching the vicinity since early in the morning.
Breakfast shops, dessert shops, bakeries, cafes…
She had basically stationed herself at these locations where she could observe the law firm, waiting for a long time.
Yet, from morning until now, she hadn't seen Moses coming out.
Biscuit felt quite disappointed about it.
"Sigh…"
Suddenly, Biscuit's eyes brightened.
She saw Moses standing inside the law firm's entrance and promptly picked up the clothes she had bought in advance. She then gracefully rose from her seat, then left the cafe and walked towards the street.
After giving up the idea of obtaining the 'sapphire' through "unethical means", disguising herself should no longer made sense.
But Biscuit enjoyed it.
She crossed the street carrying a bag of clothes, and then, walked past the Covariant Law Firm's main entrance.
"Ah!"
While passing by, she pretended to casually glance and saw Moses standing behind the glass door. This led her to let out a super excited exclamation.
"Brother Kester!!"
Biscuit's face, which had delicate features like a princess doll, displayed a look of surprise and excitement.
As if overwhelmed by excitement, she let go of the bag containing the clothes and covered her mouth with both hands.
"…"
Moses watched Biscuit's spectacular performance in silence.
In his eyes, this accidental encounter scene was too contrived, especially considering she had prepared props for it...
Glancing at the clothes now at Biscuit's feet, Moses felt tired and didn't want to engage in an acting performance with Biscuit.
"Brother Kester, what a coincidence!"
Biscuit opened the glass door and walked into the office with excitement on her face.
Originally, she thought Moses would greet her gently, but what she saw was Moses's expressionless face.
"Brother Kester, what's wrong with you... are you in a bad mood?"
The excitement and surprise on Biscuit's face slowly faded, replaced by a timid expression.
"Stop pretending."
Moses looked at Biscuit's current timid demeanor and said with a tired sigh: "I know you're not an ordinary person."
"Ara, you found out?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Biscuit's wine-red eyes. At the same time, he slowly put away the feigned timidity and curiously asked: "When did you notice it?"
"The moment you asked me, 'What does it feel like to accidentally shat in your pants?', I knew you were not an ordinary person."
Moses looked at Biscuit calmly.
"I see, indeed…"
Biscuit was slightly stunned and said with emotion, "As an ordinary little girl, how could I hear the voice on the other end of the phone clearly from several meters away? It's inherently abnormal. Alas, blame it on that topic being too interesting, but you are not bad at all."
Having said that, she continued with enthusiasm: "So, is it true? The shitting incident, I mean."
"It's fake."
Moses shook his head.
"Okay."
Biscuit seemed a bit disappointed. She then withdrew her disguised, wrapping the flow of Aura around her body.
Decades of Nen mastery was simply presented before Moses's eyes now.
"So, are you not afraid that I deliberately came looking for you?"
Biscuit changed the topic, her tone carrying a hint of danger: "If you are counting on the protection of that Single-Star Hunter, it might not be enough."
"I have no reason to be afraid."
Moses sighed again and said somewhat helplessly, "Your superb skills are obvious, so there's no doubt that you are a master. Disguising yourself to approach me naturally implies some ulterior motive. However, since you didn't directly attack me on the airship, it means it's not to the extent of seeking wealth and causing harm."
"…"
Biscuit fell silent for a moment after hearing this.
"Little brother Kester, I'm starting to 'like' you more and more."
Her wine-red eyes shined with brilliance.
