Chapter 41 Nen Space

Once, in front of Cheadle, Ken said the words, 'We are both Enhancers'...

Thinking about it, it was indeed deliberate, so it's not surprising that it could be noticed.

In the rapidly changing battle situation, after utilizing all possible conditions and factors to lay the groundwork for a decisive attack, even if it didn't achieve significant results, it didn't matter.

The important thing is—

Compared to the limitation 'unable to counterattack', the safety of the father and son in the distance is a more stringent limitation that the member of the Zodiacs in front of him needs to shoulder.

That's enough.

Otherwise, Ken would not naively believe that with just one wound, he could determine Cheadle's final fate.

Without this crucial limitation, if he and Sivir, who lacked Genbu's "Gambler's Fantasy" and Cole's "Harvest Moment", insisted on holding on, they would likely end up being worn down by Cheadle, exhausting all their potential Aura without accomplishing anything.

Even after two Heavenly Stems work together, they still struggled to deal with one Zodiac.

Perhaps Sivir would be roaring in frustration because of this, but Ken doesn't care about these meaningless feelings at all. He only cared about the results.

Seizing the "King's Libra" and kill one of the Zodiacs. That is the wonderful results.

"Aren't you going to save them?"

Kenn asked with a smile as he attacked Cheadle.

At this moment, his body, and even his Aura became extremely sharp.

He is a Nen user who least needs a sword, but he insists on using a sword to deceive and confuse the enemy.

How could such a person be an Enhancer...

Cheadle frowned, but instead of retreating, she actively faced Ken.

She had to rush to Moses's side no matter what.

'Once humans are bound by limitations... they become quite easy to understand.'

Ken's eyes narrowed to a slit, but he was not surprised at all by Cheadle's proactive response to his attack.

In this way, his hit rate would increase accordingly.

'Then try to dodge this one. My next strike...'

The massive amount of Aura that emerged from Ken's body followed his thoughts and provided him with the greatest assistance.

Then-

As if a lightning arc flashed by, his arm transformed into a blade, directly slashing towards Cheadle's body.

Ken exerted all his efforts in this strike. Regardless of the angle or timing, it was the most perfect one in his career as a Heavenly Stem.

Unfortunately-

Doctor is a profession that is so meticulous that it can pick out any problems no matter how small it is.

Ken thought this one attack is his most perfect strike, but in Cheadle's eyes, there is still a way to dodge it.

She bent down, then rushed forward. Without any surprises, Ken's strike missed her.

Immediately, with undiminished momentum, she headed towards Moses.

"Dodged again, sigh."

Ken turned to look at Cheadle's back.

On the other side.

Sivir, in War Rhythm, attacked Moses and Hawk without any reservation.

That surging aura like a waterfall gave her all-round protection.

Moses tensed his nerves, staring at Sivir closely.

'In this situation, how should I respond...'

As the first to bear the brunt, he deeply felt the strong sense of oppression coming towards his face.

Strategy, schemes.

Any tricks are meaningless at this moment.

With no cards left to play, he felt utterly helpless.

"No Passage Allowed."

Hawk's gaze swept towards Sivir and he spoke in a low voice.

Hearing Hawk's words, the Rat Jewel immediately stopped bouncing around, and its round body, along with the three-dimensional arrow mark above its head, simultaneously revealed luster of Nen.

"Chirp!"

Rat Jewel looked at Sivir, and red arrow marks appeared out of thin air, attaching themselves to Sivir's body.

With the binding force generated by the appearance of the red arrow marks, Sivir, who was rushing madly, was forcibly brought to a halt.

"Oh?"

Sivir raised an eyebrow, looking down at the red straight-line marker with the number 3 that had appeared on her body.

The flowing manifested Aura was unaffected, but she couldn't move.

The moment he used his ability to bind Sivir, blood arrows appeared all over Hawk's body.

But he didn't care at all. He turned to look at Rat Jewel and whispered softly: "All these years... you've worked hard..."

After saying that, he looked at Moses's back.

"Moses, from now on... remember to eat on time."

"Huh?"

Moses immediately turned around, but a burst of green light came into his eyes.

"Hawk..."

His voice abruptly stopped.

His body disappeared into the green light.

Hawk lowered his eyelids, lifted his index finger, and slowly pointed at Cheadle, who was rushing this way.

At this moment, he had no strength left to speak.

But Rat Jewel could understand the meaning behind Hawk's gesture.

"Chirp!"

Rat Jewel's eyes, which took up half of its face, were filled with sparkles.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp!"

Immediately, the luster of Nen appeared on its body again.

"One-Way Road"

An arrow symbol emitting a green light appeared out of thin air in front of Cheadle.

"…"

Cheadle's gaze seemed to pierce through the green light, landing on the man she had always despised.

She wanted to say something, but before she could speak, she was sent away by the green light.

Disappearing in the same instant were the Rat Jewel and the red arrow mark attached to Sivir.

This sudden turn of events surprised both Sivir and Ken.

"Oi, Ken."

After regained her freedom, Sivir looked back at Ken.

"Chase them first, they won't be able to get far."

Ken gave Sivir a positive reply directly.

The thing is always there, and can be retrieved at any time, but if these people run away, they might never be found again.

Ken walked over and squinted at Hawk, who was leaning on the tree trunk half dead.

'In his current state, how much the distance could be covered by the ability he used?'

"What a pointless struggle."

"…"

Hawk lifted his eyelids and just smiled coldly.

In his mind, memories flashed by.

"Elena, I'm really a useless piece of trash, always messing things up."

"Hawk, how can you say such thing about yourself? I can tell you with certainty that in my heart, you are definitely not useless."

"Really?"

"Yeah, because even trash can be recycled."

"…"

The corners of Hawk's mouth were raised slightly.

'I forgot to tell Moses...'

'When looking for a wife, you must do it as early as possible.'

At this moment-

From within the temple on the top of the mountain, a brutal and indescribable Aura suddenly erupted.

"!!!"

Ken and Sivir suddenly looked towards the temple.

Even though they are separated by several hundred meters, they could clearly feel the terrifying nature of that Post-Mortem Nen.

"This intensity... is different from what is written in the intelligence."

Sivir muttered to herself.

As for Ken, he frowned, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

He subconsciously looked at Hawk.

However, Hawk raised his head, and on his blood-stained and dust-covered face, a pair of lifeless eyes were looking at him, as if looking at a dead man.

Ken is familiar with such look.

'Damn it!'

On the top of the mountain.

In the erupting Post-Mortem Nen that soared into the sky, a black curtain adorned with bright stars suddenly appeared, blooming like fireworks, and it descended and covered the forest like a birdcage.

"Nen Space."

Ken looked at the covering curtain, and his expression suddenly changed dramatically.
