Roy quietly lay on the ground, hands behind his head, admiring the moonlight. The restored Sense allowed him to perceive the owners of these footsteps even without using [En].
Among them were Kyojuro Rengoku,
Tomioka Giyu,
Shinazugawa Sanemi,
Tengen Uzui,
and various men, women, and elders with whom he had formed bonds, such as Ubuyashiki Kagaya and Urokodaki Sakonji.
All of them were individuals who cared about him,
and these people were results of him bringing them hope, and they in return brought warmth and hope to him...
Seemingly, he recalled the scene of closely observing the [Sun] once more,
The young man rose and dusted off his clothes, then smiled broadly at everyone,
"Pop~" the dream shattered,
Consciousness returned,
The next morning, at four o'clock, accompanied by the wooden clock in the corner of the bedroom with a "dong~" sound,
Roy, after spending time with people from the Demon Slayer World,
slowly opened his eyes again,
Through the "Sea of Cognition," he crossed the colorful dream corridor and instantaneously left the Demon Slayer World, returning to the Hunter World.
"Swooosh~" Summer, the cicadas chirp continuously.
Beside the window, as the fan turns, a breeze blows gently in.
In the Republic of Padokea, Kukuroo Mountain, the Zoldyck Family castle, within Roy's bedroom.
The boy's silver hair draped behind his head, casually scattered on the bed sheet. Unlike usual, unbeknownst to him, the tip of his hair seemed to have turned gold, presenting a dazzling yet noble luminescence of glazed gold!
[Notice: "Power Of Faith" +170... Source: "Faith Settlement" from the general populace in the Demon Slayer World...]
[Remark: Current "Power Of Faith": 417]
[Current "Life Energy": 384]
In total... 801....
Roy took a deep breath, forcing himself to suppress the urge to rush to the bathroom and add points immediately. This time, he flipped over and sat up from bed, hearing the "snore~ snore~" as a series of snores like a tractor sounded closely from beside his pillow...
Amused, the young man gently fiddled with the golden feather on Jinx's head, suddenly pausing, wasn't Jinx... somewhat larger than before?
Roy's gaze shifted as he returned to his senses, gently touching the soft tummy of the chubby crow and then its foot pads. Clearly, a third foot emerged... Though not as long as the other two feet, it had grown much longer compared to before.
Just then, Roy opened Jinx's panel to take a look....
[Nen Beast: Three-legged Golden Crow]

[Evaluation: B—]
[Remark: Compared to ants, your Nen Beast "Three-legged Golden Crow" has already reached the level of elite ant Master General]
In silence, Roy quietly watched Jinx daze, and a realization gradually emerged in his heart... The so-called [Nen Beast] is less the [Conjuration] of [Imagination]; rather, it is the "Conjuration" of "heart power,"
If he is strong, Jinx is strong; if he is weak, Jinx is weak,
The Three-legged Golden Crow shares both glory and failure with him, bonded even more firmly than the [Initial Embrace] he gave Wutong,
The bond between Jinx and him, is even stronger than that of the [Initial Embrace]!
Thoughts fluttered, gradually becoming clear... Roy's gaze grew a little brighter, reaching out a finger to gently poke Jinx's cheek....
"Caw~ oh~" The pudgy crow drowsily opened its sleepy eyes, struggling to lift its heavy eyelids, "Ha shii~" and with one bite, viciously clamped down on Roy's finger!
"Why did you call me?!"
Roy's mouth twitched, almost able to clearly see the anger on Jinx's puffed-up cheeks, using his other hand, pinching a thumb and index finger, he flicked its forehead,
"Stop sleeping, get up, take me for a flight......"
[Drive] has been unlocked... Roy didn't forget the clear words recorded on Jinx's panel,
His gaze burned as he locked eyes with the pudgy crow, persistently saying.
Jinx reluctantly released Roy's finger, flapping its meaty wings, wobbling as it took off out the window, over the corridor, and into the garden next to it, then cried out "Caw~ oh~," growing larger in the wind!
Spreading its wings again, a harness emitting a shimmering golden glow appeared at its neck, flowing long with the wind, one end attached to Jinx, the other emerging from the void... slowly pulling out an ancient, weathered sun chariot......
"Buzz~" The sun chariot was encircled with a halo, making it impossible to clearly see its true form,
As it slowly rolled out from the void, fully emerging into view——
The entire Zoldyck Family estate,
Suddenly it was as if... a boundless strong light had been cast down from the heavens!
Instantly as bright as daylight,
It disturbed the entire Zoldyck castle!
"Waaah~" A baby's cry broke the night's silence from a second-floor bedroom......
In front of a large floor-to-ceiling window, a flash of striking silver hair passed by, Silva appeared in pajamas, holding Killua,
On the first floor, in the far west bedroom, the floor had a large hole, a pair of hollow eyes peeking through, leaping from the hole,
Then, on the mountainside, the butler's villa, two pink pigtails trailing behind Tsubone, who walked out with Kurajing,
In front of the mountain gate, Zebro, now middle-aged and balding, was drinking tea and reading a newspaper. He looked up, and the teacup in his hand tilted, drenching the newspaper,
Next... it was Mikai, the butler, the maids, the apprentices......
As each "Zoldyck" leisurely awakened, their biological clocks disrupted by the prematurely arrived "light" and "dawn," forced to awake,
Zeno, with his striking white hair, performing his daily routine of one kill per day, returning just then, had nowhere to hide from the light, and simply walked out from the corner, gave Roy a helpless glance, and said: "Kid, what are you doing again?"
A massive, ancient, golden sun chariot wrapped in time and legend stood before him....
Roy took a step forward, instantly transforming into light, glided past Zeno, and arrived at the garden, raising a hand to touch the wheel of the sun chariot....
"What else would I be doing?"
"I want to fly, Grandpa."
The youth's striking silver hair streamed down his back, its ends shimmering with a gold light that swayed with the halo the sun chariot emitted around it, prominently reflected in Zeno's eyes,
In an instant, it left this "one kill a day, active career," stunned and speechless!
"Roy, your... hair!"
"It changed color!" Illumi leapt out following him, adding for Zeno.
In the second-floor bedroom, large silver hair held small silver hair in his arms, his gaze looking downward, his brow furrowing slightly... Roy's hair ends, shimmering with a golden glaze, dazzling and bright, rivaling the [sun chariot],
At this moment, it captivated the three Zoldyck generations, who couldn't look away!
"Maha, have you noticed anything?" A slow murmur sounded from the dimly lit small bedroom.
Even though the television was still playing cartoons,
Even though below was his beloved rocking chair,
Even though the summer dawn was the most pleasant time to sleep,
However,
The dry, frail old man, whether awakened by the intense light or a long-holding old need to relieve himself, at the moment the [sun chariot] appeared, and Roy absentmindedly exhibited his striking hair ends in the breeze,
Maha Zoldyck, this true "pillar of purple gold that spans the sea, white jade pillar that supports the sky" of the Zoldyck family, suddenly opened his eyes, just like the other Zoldycks, fully awake.
"Not sure about anything else, but one thing is certain...."
A hazy mist appeared,
The old man threw an arm around Betty's waist, chuckled and said, "Roy, that kid, has evolved again!"
