Chapter 43: Killing Intent!


    In the mist, screams and shouts for help continued to echo from time to time. Five candidates at this time were banded together while looking vigntly at the approaching An.


    In their eyes, An was a cold-blooded killer.


    Not only did he kill arge number of Monsters, but also dozens of candidates as well.


    He was attacking anyone regardless if it was an enemy or not.


    And unfortunately for them, An spotted them.


    “As long as I kill a few more, my quest will bepleted.” An sneered.


    He counted his victims, and he only needed five more candidates to get his reward.


    The five of them looked at An with puzzled looks and asked: “Wait! We didn’t do anything to you. Why do you want to attack us?”


    “Attack?” An almost chuckled as if he heard a joke: “Then, I will give you a chance to attack me. Let’s see what you can do.”


    The five candidates gritted their teeth and made their mind to attack An.


    Even though they were some of the few people that passed the underground tunnel, they still couldn’t face a monster like An.


    At this moment, an invisible force was radiating from An.


    “This, what is this?!”


    Boom!


    The feeling came from the depth of their soul, a fear that made them tremble.


    The five candidates couldn’t move at all.


    Their body was being suppressed, and their legs couldn’t even take a step forward.


    And finally, their consciousness became hazy.


    “Oh? Not bad, you able to remain standing in front of my Conqueror’s Haki. It seems like you’re not just some random trash.” An said with surprise.


    But the next sentence was said in a cold tone: “But, look at you, I’m standing here, can you kill me?”


    With the Conqueror’s Haki pressing them, it was hard for the five candidates even to stay conscious.


    As long as they rxed for a second, they will fall unconscious.


    Finally, they couldn’t bear it any longer and fainted.


    As soon as they fell, An heard a Ding in his head.


    [Ding! You sessfully killed 50 Monster and Eliminated 50 candidates. Reward: sh Steps]


    “So, this is the way to use sh Steps of the Shinigami?”


    The information about sh Steps appeared in An’s head as soon as he got the reward. Suddenly a smile bloomed on his face.


    This kind of technique was handy; it was better than Soru by a few times, at least.


    Not to mention, increasing speed using Nen wasn’t as fast or as efficient as sh steps.


    It only relied on Stamina and was much faster.


    In other words, even if he was using Zetsu, he can still use sh Steps.


    Now, he could use Moon Walk, Conqueror’s Haki, Observation Haki, and sh Steps, each one of those skills didn’t need Nen at all.


    They were skills outside the scope of Nen.


    Therefore, An had a significant advantagepared to others.


    Even if he can’t use Nen, his power won’t be significantly affected as long as he possesses the ability.


    “Then, I should head toward the next Exam.”


    An’s figure shed as if he disappeared. He moved along the Forest with great speed using the newly acquired sh Steps.


    As for Gon, An believed that he could pass through the Forest without any problem.


    An guessed that after passing through this Forest, Gon would be friends with Kurapika and Leorio.


    It’s like when they were in the Underground tunnel. Even without Gon and Killua deliberately befriending each other, they would still be attracted to each other.


    Simrly, Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio can be friends as quickly.


    Therefore, An wasn’t worried at all.


    At this time, Hisoka, who was following Gon and the others, licked his lips as he looked at Illumi by his side with an evil smile.


    “What should I do? I want to kill that Hedgehog headed kid. The three with him also seem delicious.”


    “Ah, of course, you can do whatever you want,” Illumi said indifferently.


    “Where Can I find Killua? Can I Kill him as well?” Hisoka’s mouth twitched as he nced at Illumi.


    Suddenly, terrible killing intent filled the ce as a head looked at Hisoka nkly.


    “Then, I will kill you, Hisoka.”


    “Ah~, what a terrible Killing Intent. It doesn’t seem like you’re joking.” Hisoka squinted: “I didn’t think that you care about your brother so much!”


    At this time, Killua, who was walking in the front, stopped suddenly as his face was filled with cold sweat.


    “What’s wrong, Killua? Why did you stop?” Gon was a little confused as he asked.


    Killua didn’t reply before he felt this terrible presence belonged to none other than his brother.
