“I obviously know. I’ve known since I was little.”
Misty wore a proud expression.
Ron smiled. “Then tell me.”
“A wife’s duty is to sleep with her husband and help him have children.”
“And then?”
“And then?” Misty froze for a moment.
Ron asked, “Do you know the specific details of how it’s done?”
“There are details?”
Ron shook his head. “Alright, Misty, you should leave for now. A wife doesn’t behave like this.”
Misty unhappily climbed out of bed and walked toward the door. She wore a deep burgundy nightdress. Her chest gently rose and fell. Despite her young age, she already had quite a notable figure, which surprised Ron somewhat.
As Misty reached the door, her hand grasped the doorknob. Suddenly, she turned around and looked up at Ron.
“Big brother, can you teach me?”
Ron: "........"
“Wait until you grow up a bit more.”
With Ponzu, Ron had taken a natural attitude. Ponzu was ultimately a character who had already existed in the original story. Before coming to this world, Ron had known of Ponzu’s existence. So when the two ended up sharing a bed, and Ponzu instinctively leaned toward Ron in her sleep, once things reached a certain point, Ron did not mind stepping across that threshold.
But for Misty, her age was still too young.
“Alright.” Misty, somewhat disappointed, left the room.
Ron lay back down. In his mind, he couldn’t help but recall Misty’s appearance from just before.
“I have to say, Misty and Mirajane are really starting to look more and more alike.”
At that moment, his phone rang.
Ron picked it up. The caller ID was an unfamiliar number.
“Hello?”
“Ron, it’s me.”
The voice sounded familiar. Ron thought for a moment.
“Menchi-senpai?”
“Ron, didn’t you say before that you wanted to visit Gourmet Paradise? You can come now. I’ll send you the location of the entrance. Contact me when you arrive.”
“Alright. Thank you, Menchi-senpai.”
“You’re welcome.”
Ron hung up the phone and smiled.
“Finally, it’s time to begin collecting my next trait.”
He had been looking forward to this for a long time. Ever since the Hunter Exam ended, he had temporarily paused this pursuit. One reason was time constraints. The other was the appearance of his Gourmet Cells ability after fusing with Toriko.
Heading to Gourmet Paradise wouldn’t just allow him to taste all kinds of delicious food. More importantly, he would likely be able to create a Nen Beast highly skilled in cooking. That Nen Beast would be a tremendous asset to his Gourmet Cell ability.
That’s why Ron had set Gourmet Paradise as his next objective.
Counting the time since the end of the Hunter Exam until now, it actually hadn’t been very long. It just felt like a lot because so much had happened.
The strange situation in Ponzu’s village.
The events in Saherta Union.
And the Rosgell resurrection incident.
Great-Grandfather Maha had told Ron to slow down. But travelling to Gourmet Paradise didn’t feel like rushing to him. That was the area where Linne resided. Linne had ties with the Zoldyck family.
Ron arrived at the training ground. At this time, everyone was engaged in training.
Misty sat cross-legged on the floor. Ruco and Ponzu were performing basic training.
“Captain.”
“Big brother.”
“Big brother.”
Everyone’s eyes turned toward Ron.
Ron glanced around and said, “Next, I’ll be heading to Gourmet Paradise. Who among you wants to come along?”
Everyone seemed interested.
But after exchanging a glance, Ruco and Ponzu both shook their heads.
“Captain, I won’t go. My strength is still too weak.”
Ruco could feel that among the team, her role was almost the smallest. This gave her a strong sense of urgency.
“Captain, I won’t go either. I need to spend more time training.”
Though Ponzu did want to go, given that she was already weaker than the others, she didn’t want to selfishly spend time on leisure. She wanted to quickly raise her Nen user level.
“Big brother, I feel like I’m at a critical moment,” Nina said.
She wanted to go too, but she sensed that her Nen level had touched a bottleneck. With a bit more effort, she might break through. Compared to having fun, Nina wanted more to become a B-class Nen user.
“In that case, Sally, Shizuku, Misty—you three will come with me.”
But Ron couldn’t depart just yet. Before heading to Gourmet Paradise, he had another promise to fulfill: his match with Hisoka.
They had agreed to fight in a floor master challenge match at Heaven’s Arena. Hisoka wanted to battle Ron at his full strength. Ron wanted to use Hisoka to test his Six Harmonies Sphere.
Each had their own agenda. But when it came to the battle itself, their desire was the same.
“Hisoka, ready yet?” Ron dialed Hisoka’s number.
At that moment, Hisoka was already in the ring. Normally, fighters wouldn’t bring phones into the ring. But Hisoka was different. His last few matches had been quick victories with a bit of fun mixed in.
On the 200th floor, no fighter could pose a threat to Hisoka.
Kastro sat in the audience, observing Hisoka’s fight.
Gon, Killua, and Wing were also watching.
Hisoka pulled out his phone and answered.
“Almost.”
“Then let’s set it for tomorrow. I have some other matters to handle and won’t be staying at Heaven’s Arena much longer.”
“Alright.”
The opponent standing across from Hisoka frowned deeply. He knew he wasn’t Hisoka’s match and had already accepted defeat. But what did this mean? Hisoka was actually taking a phone call during the match?
This opponent was furious.
“Hisoka, that’s going too far!”
In his rage, he poured all his strength into a full-force charge toward Hisoka, channeling all his aura into his fist and swinging it at Hisoka.
Hisoka ended the call, looked at his opponent, and his eyes turned icy cold.
The next moment, he flicked his wrist.
A playing card flew out.
Pshk!
It struck true, embedding itself in his opponent’s heart. The card sank deep into the flesh.
“Sorry. You’ve completely lost your value.”
