We stood in front of the gates and waited.Gon returned on time.
The gates were opened and we went into the large place with the stoves, kitchen utensils etcetera.
We turned to see a big man that had a baby like face ( he is overweight)( I don't want it to sound negative though :')) and a young woman with neon green hair and pink strings on her five pony tails.She also had green eyes. Those two were Buhara and Menchi.As the applicants gathered there was a loud sound , most applicants looked if there was an avalanche. It came from the belly of Buhara.It seemed he was hungry.Menchi introduced herself and Buhara to us.They were gourmet hunters and our task was to make a delicious meal that they approved of.Buhara added, that we can make anything with any pig there was in the Visca Forest Preserve.There was only one kind.Menchi found Buhara's challenge too easy, and subsequently announced to the examinees that her meal would be a sushi, a dish from a small country. She offered a few hints about its preparation, and declared that the exam would only end once she is full.
While the examinees pondered over the instructions, Buhara scolded Menchi for requesting a hard dish to prepare, since the only fish needed to make a sushi is found in seas, not freshwater lakes. Menchi refuted that she wanted to try a unique sushi dish made by the examinees, and claimed to be more of a culinary artist than an examiner.
I went out and searched for the Great Stamp, the only pig in the Visca Forest. I knew that its forehead was its weakness and sprung into the air and hit it with my foot on the forehead.It instantly dropped to the ground, I grabbed it and transported it in my hands to my place for cooking.I baked it in the oven and placed a big leaf on the table I smeared some oil and spices on it so it would give the pig a fresh taste.I had plenty often them and repeated the process.I took the pig out of the oven and fried it in a pan.I then wrapped the slices with the leaves.I also had some apples cooked with sugar and water.I mixed them with a spoon until it was like a sauce.I also used some wild berries that were edible and sweet and placed all on a plate.It looked and smelled good.I presented my dish to Buhara and Menchi.Buhara took a slice of pig with the leaf and dipped it in the apple mousse . He ate it and of course passed me.It was Menchi's turn to test my dish. She said something like: "It looks good but does it taste good too?"
She did it like Buhara, dipping the pork into the apple mousse.She took a bite.
It is delicious, this is what I wanted.She told everyone, she passed me.I was the first to pass.
The applicants after me tried to rashly change it, so it was like mine but none of them succeeded.
Thirty minutes later an airship from the Hunters Association arrived.Netero, the president of it, jumped out of it while it was still in the air.
You can't just fail everyone but one person.
Netero scolded Menchi.
She apologised and admitted that she didn't act like a proper examiner.
She offered to do another thing for the second phase.
We hopped onto the airship and some time later we arrived at the split mountains, Menchi demonstrated how we should retrieve the spider's eggs.
I went with the first group and got down.I held on the spider webs tightly. I grabbed one egg let go of the webs on time only to fly up because of the wind.Then the ones who did it correctly, cooked their eggs and ate them.I did too.They were pretty good, not that different from the normal ones.
We got onto the airship again and were assigned rooms.
I shared mine with Hisoka , he had the number 44.
2 hours later, it was evening.There was a buffet and you could eat to heart's content.I was not hungry, so I didn't go there.
I went to bed right after exhausted. I said good night to Hisoka and fell asleep.
