Chapter 360 - Chapter 263: From Cocoon to Butterfly X The Man Who Emerged from the Playing Cards

[Tip: "Swordsmanship" +1]

[Current "Swordsmanship" Level: Level 4: 87,431/100,000]

The two practice sessions with "gratitude" of "Ten Thousand Basic Swings" came to an end,

In the training room, watching the morning sun rise, sending off the sunset, as the day's sword training concluded, Roy's face remained calm, his Sense was abundant, Nen was full, without any fatigue. He reversed Yubashiri using Anti-Conjuration to store it in his Unconscious Domain.

Listening to the sharp "1" from the panel's prompt, he closed his eyes to meditate beside the floor-to-ceiling window, letting the mountain wind blow as he pondered carefully for a moment. Suddenly realizing, as his power grew stronger, the levels of certain skills gradually increased, making it almost impossible to get "the same experience points through the same training routine" as before.

The proverbial "a millimeter makes all the difference" holds true — the higher you climb, the harder it gets.

Thoughts surged, Roy exhaled deeply, reopening his eyes. The amber eyes suddenly gleamed with divine light, instinctively telling him... from Level 4 to Level 5, there lies an almost insurmountable chasm....

It's akin to the relationship between regular Sharingan and Mangekyo, Mangekyo and Rinnegan, Byakugan and the Reincarnation Eye, which hold powers of destruction and creation... Roy casually grabbed a hint of sunset, faintly sensing that upon reaching Level 5 in "Swordsmanship," it would bring unexpected surprises.....

Therefore, "Nen," in essence, is "idealistic," even though it emphasizes specific internal logic as constraints with laws like "law of equivalent exchange" and "law of risk and reward," a person's inner strength ultimately depends — on imagination, namely.... on one's "visualization" and "cognition"....

Just like Kurapika with the "Chained Vengeance,"

Sisko with the "Thin Illusion" of "Bungee Gum,"

Netero, borrowing Buddhist sayings to create Shingen-ryu, unconventionally condensing Martial Arts Dharma form "Hundred Forms of Guanyin," breaking the shackles of "Enhancement," nearly killed Meruem with one "Release" move.....

Roy looked up to see Killua being pushed by Milluki through the garden, realizing that his most significant and singular advantage compared to the world's Indigenous People is——reincarnation and rebirth,

Thus giving him unparalleled "insight" and "cognition."

"Buzz~" "Gate of Cognition" trembled, seemingly resonating with Roy, responding to him. Just then, Tsubone entered, pushing the dining cart, seeing him sheath the sword, gently calling out: "Young Master, it's time to dine."

Roy nonchalantly replied with a soft "Mm," his gaze sweeping from Killua and Milluki to Illumi buried in the pit, from Milluki sunken on the lawn, collecting it all back, and turned on the spot to eat dinner in the training room.

"Young Master, I also prepared some for Wutong," Tsubone stood aside, trying to inquire: "I wonder if should feed it to him."

"Much appreciated," Roy smiled at the old butler who dedicated his life to the Zoldyck family, "No need to worry,"

"He will be fine."

The teenager forked a piece of steak into his mouth, his mind stirring, calling up Wutong's "Follower" panel...

[Follower: Wutong (Note: Loyalty Overflowing)]

[Current State: Evolving....]

[Constitution +1+1+1+1......]

[Current: Increased by a hundred points compared to before Evolution → 435 (Note: Continuously Increasing)]

[Manifested Nen Amount: C- (9,754/100,000) → C (37,415/100,000) (Note: Continuously Increasing)]

[Potential Qi Amount: C- (8,712/100,000) → C+ (14,578/100,000) (Note: Continuously Increasing)]

[System: Release]

[Initial Telekinesis Ability: Coin Guessing]

[Initial Embrace Telekinesis Ability: Awakening ongoing...]

[Evaluation: C]

[Note: Like ant references, your follower "Wutong" is already at an ordinary ant Master General level, advancing towards top Master General level]

Top Master General like the lion Leol fighting Pharaoh Hound, scorpion Kazan etcetera, peak-level Feitan and Uvogin. Moreover, today is just the first day, with six days left... Roy silently felt the causal line with Wutong thickening and broadening, then glanced downward, pulling to the bottom of the panel—

[Controllable State — Absolute Control]

Roy, realizing with enlightenment, fully aware, as long as he wishes, he can wholly replicate what Muzan did to other demons, determine their life and death with a word, and can jederzeit view, flip through, or erase the other's memory.

Blessings lie within curse, curse within blessings, all things have contradictory sides,

[Initial Embrace] although powerful, can't escape natural laws, the grand path trembling.

Roy took a last look, focusing more on the[Initial Embrace Telekinesis Ability]field, curious and expectant... for what new telekinesis ability the young butler might awaken after[Coin Guessing],

Discreetly shut off the panel, swallowed the remaining steak into his belly...

Nearing 7 o'clock, the final shred of sunlight reluctantly dipped below the horizon as dinner concluded. Roy accepted the napkin handed by Tsubone to wipe his mouth, nodded slightly at her, saying: "Thank you."

Rising with her, leaving the old butler to clean up the dining cart, and stepped out of the training room, proceeding straight towards the basement like usual.

"Tap... Tap...." Footsteps echoed through the mottled corridor imbued with the breath of ages....

The young man, silver hair drifting, passing the garden, noticing a cluster of white chrysanthemums blooming beneath the window sash. Roy suddenly recalled Tsugikuni Yoriichi's instruction to wait for the wildflower bloom to hold memorial for "Poetry" and his child who died prematurely at a demon's hands without reaching one year old. With a pause in stride, he plucked a few blossoms, roots and all, stepping onward, appeared at the basement door before the Scarface one-eye.
