16 Chapter 16 Moses’s Nen Type

In the two rounds of offense and defense, Moses was completely defeated.

"There was no chance at all."

During his break, Moses conducted a review and simulation in his mind, concluding that there was absolutely no chance to win at all.

Physical fitness could be improved with consistent training, but combat experience and actual combat skills could only be honed through actual combat.

Moses slowly closed his eyes, simultaneously closing his Aura nodes, confining the Aura, that should have dissipated, into his body to increase recovery speed.

Right now, he wanted nothing more than to recover quickly and continue his combat training.

After approximately an hour, Moses's Aura capacity finally recovered to 90%.

Believing himself capable of another round, he immediately requested Wright for another sparring session.

A few minutes later…

Moses was lying down again.

Despite the continuous defeats, Moses was not discouraged.

He was well aware that even if he's given a hundred days, it would be impossible for him to defeat Wright in a direct confrontation.

Because physical fitness couldn't be increased overnight, and combat experience and skills required long-term refinement and accumulation.

Throughout the ten days of sparring, Moses's only goal was to gain as much 'experience points' as possible from the countless defeats.

"Again."

After fully recovered once again, Moses got up immediately and signaled Wright to continue their sparring session.

Wright smiled and swiftly took Moses down yet again.

At equal Aura levels, he didn't need to use any Nen techniques, only relying solely on his superior martial skills and experience to overwhelm Moses.

It wasn't until noon that the sparring was forcibly stopped.

The reason was that the gold Wright had ordered had arrived.

30 million Jenny was converted into a total of 18 kilograms of gold.

In addition to gold, Wright had also bought a computer and a mobile phone for Moses, as well as a large amount of meat.

Considering the limited food storage conditions in the temple, Wright casually bought several large commercial refrigerators for storing meat.

As for issues like electricity and internet connectivity? It was no problem at all.

After all, with a Hunter License, Wright can expect VIP service.

Employees in uniforms shuttled back and forth at the foot of the mountain and in the temple, fulfilling all of Wright's requests in just half an hour.

Moses, who was busy recovering his Aura, was utterly amazed. He didn't expect Wright to be so thoughtful. He had planned to get a computer and phone after the sparring session, but Wright quietly took care of it for him.

Moreover, Wright even took care of the internet and electricity.

'Was it typical for Enhancer types to be so meticulous?'

Moses couldn't help but start to doubt the true nature of Wright's Nen type.

"Wright."

Holding the latest and expensive phone in his hand, Moses looked at Wright and sincerely said, "You've gone through a lot of trouble for me. How about this? The 'favor' I mentioned earlier…"

"It's just a small expense."

Wright interrupted Moses, staring intently, "What, is my 'favor' so worthless?"

"That's not what I meant."

Moses shook his head.

He didn't feel much sensation from the 18 kilograms of gold exchanged for 30 million Jenny, but what Wright had done for him truly touched his heart.

It made him feel that burdening Wright with another favor wouldn't be appropriate.

"Heh, I don't care what you mean."

Wright grinned, revealing a neat set of teeth, and with his distinctive deep voice, he said, "Anyway, the favor I owed shouldn't be something so cheap."

"Understood."

Moses didn't insist anymore.

He figured that trying to persuade an Enhancer was probably harder than doing hundreds of push-ups under the sun.

Afterward, Wright went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Pork, beef, lamb, chicken…

Basically all meat.

According to him, eating more meat is easier to build muscle.

Moses felt that this statement was a fallacy.

But as the saying goes-

Don't try to change the perspectives recognized by the Enhancers.

That would only be a waste of time.

After a while, Wright brought out plate after plate of meat, all still boiled.

Both of them sat down.

Wright mobilized his Aura to gather in his mouth, then picked up a large piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. His teeth crunched like a meat grinder, and in a few seconds, the meat was chewed to pulp and swallowed.

"Moses, have you tested your Nen type?"

After swallowing a large piece of meat, Wright suddenly remembered this matter and asked.

"Not yet."

Moses picked up a chicken leg and gnawed on it.

After entering the threshold of Nen training, his Nen ability had partially awakened. Even so, he hadn't thought of using 'Water Divination' to test his Nen type. Right now, his foundation wasn't solid yet, and having too much unnecessary information stored in his head would only be counterproductive.

Because he was a transmigrator, did that mean he had to urgently test his Nen type as soon as he started on the Four Fundamental Techniques? Moses believed there was no need to rush, as focusing on practicing the Four Fundamental Techniques was the top priority.

Seeing Wright ask now, he didn't deliberately conceal anything.

If it were before-

Moses would definitely have said something like 'What is Nen type testing?' to cover up information related to himself.

Wright paused for a moment, then casually asked, "Do you want to test it after eating?"

He had actually considered the possibility that Moses's dad, Hawk, might also be a Nen user. However, all he wanted to do right now was to demonstrate his value as a 'future master' in front of Moses.

Anything else wasn't on his priority list.

"Sure."

Moses agreed casually.

Nen types were divided into six categories—

Enhancement, Transmutation, Emission, Manipulation, Conjuration, and Specialization.

Each Nen type has its unique advantages, with the Specialization category being the rarest and most peculiar.

Everyone has an attribute exclusive to themselves. By following their Nen type, they can choose the correct direction for their Nen training, achieving double the results with half the effort. Conversely, training in a Nen type outside of one's inherent category is difficult.

Therefore, Nen users must first test their inherent category through the Water Divination method before establishing the direction of their Nen training.

Afterward, Moses and Wright buried themselves in eating, maintaining an unspoken understanding between them.

Not long after they finished eating, the two started preparations for the Nen type test.

There wasn't much preparation needed. It was just a cup filled with water, with a leaf placed on the water's surface. By enveloping the cup with one's Nen, the changes within the water could determine the individual's Nen type.

For Enhancers, the water would overflow.

For Transmuters, the water's taste would change, with different people causing different flavors.

For Conjurers, crystalline substances would form in the water.

For Emitters, the water would change color.

For Manipulators, the floating leaf would sway and move.

As for the Specialization type, any phenomenon different from the aforementioned would indicate it.

Wright gestured for Moses to stand in front of the cup, then guided, "Place both of your hands around the cup, then release your Nen."

Before beginning the Nen test, he explained the knowledge behind Nen types, regardless of whether Moses was familiar with it. This is Wright's dedication to demonstrating his potential as a future master. He wouldn't miss any opportunity to show his worth.

Moses didn't feel that Wright was being verbose and always accepted his advice graciously. He reached out his hands around the cup and channeled his Nen.

In an instant, a burst of Aura emitted from his palms, enveloping the cup.

Buzz...

Under the influence of Nen, the cup suddenly vibrated at a low frequency, emitting a buzzing sound. At the same time, a black mist-like substance appeared in the water, resembling ink spilled on rice paper or a lively shadow.

Seeing this scene, a hint of surprise flashed in Wright's eyes.

'Specialization type…'

This was the first time Wright had witnessed the phenomenon of the Specialization type during a Water Divination test.

Or rather, most Nen users had never seen the phenomenon of the Specialization type during a Water Divination test.

It's because the Specialization type itself was the most rare and unique existence among the six types.

"Moses, you…"

Seeing that the attribute had already been determined, Wright opened his mouth to ask Moses to stop, but his words came to an abrupt halt.

It was because the water cup enveloped by Moses's Aura suddenly shattered into pieces.

The liquid fragments, accompanied by a sudden impact, passed through the gaps in Moses's fingers. The leaf that was originally floating on the water surface also shattered into dozens of pieces in an instant.

Moses's eyelids twitched slightly. But due to the protection of his Aura, he was unharmed.

However, the phenomenon belonging to the Specialization type that occurred in front of his eyes aroused a slight curiosity about other Specialization type phenomena.

He wondered what would happen with other Specialization types during the testing.

"Moses, you have the Specialization type,"

Wright suppressed the turmoil in his heart as he glanced at the shattered glass and water on the floor, and said, "Unfortunately, I don't understand the Specialization type well enough to offer any useful advice. However, I must remind you that before determining the direction of ability development, it's better to master the Four Fundamental techniques."

"I understand."

Moses nodded, not even glancing at the shattered glass pieces on the ground, but instead walked to the courtyard.

"Wright, let's begin."

Moses said.

It's as if the most special and rare Specialization type couldn't shake his determination to quickly absorb experience from the sparring.

Wright was slightly taken aback, then suddenly showed a smile.

'This guy…'

'He's really something.'

The scorching sun hung high.

Within the courtyard, two Auras clashed against each other.

From morning till night, from today to tomorrow…

As the days passed, the ten-day sparring period was coming to an end.

Although Moses still found it challenging to gain an advantage over Wright, and through one battle after another, he was like a new dry sponge, absorbing experience and Nen techniques with fervor through battle after battle.

As the training partner, Wright deeply felt this.

'It's like… witnessing a raw gem gradually shedding its surface, revealing its captivating luster.'

Wright sincerely marveled at Moses's improvement in combat experience and the Four Fundamental techniques.

'Tomorrow is the last day. I might as well find an opportunity tonight to bring it up. Considering my performance during this time, Moses probably won't refuse. Hehe.'

Seeing the training time approaching its end, Wright also started pondering the matter of accepting Moses as his apprentice.

Believing in his exceptional teaching abilities, he had never considered that Moses would refuse.

He had also decided that if Moses agreed to his proposal, he would continue to stay at the temple and teach Moses. Just like nurturing a young plant, he would guide him until Moses passed the Hunter Exam and officially became a Pro Hunter.

That night, after the practical sparring ended, Moses collapsed on the ground, unable to move.

Wright went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

When Moses had recovered enough, the dining table was already filled with a variety of meat and vegetables.

"Moses, there's something…"

Wright placed the utensils in front of Moses, preparing to bring up the matter of accepting him as an apprentice, when a sudden ringing sound interrupted him.

The sound came from Wright's pocket.

Moses glanced at Wright, then continued eating without paying much attention.

Wright took out his phone, pressing it against his cheek after answering the call.

"There's news about the Phantom Troupe."

The voice that came from the phone caused Wright's expression to tighten for a moment.
