Chapter 182

When I headed to the place where I was summoned, there were two familiar people at the airship landing site.

The airship preparing to take off behind them had Netero and... Mr. CheadleYorkshire. Is that the person...

As I approached, Netero began walking toward me.

"Wait for me, Aisha."

"Netero... please decide on a time in advance.

If you decide, I won't keep you waiting long."

Precisely because of this, I also had to eat quickly. Goodness.

"... because I didn't have time before.

Please don't blame Mr. Netero."

Mr. CheadleYorkshire followed closely behind, emitting a stinging aura.

For some reason, my eyes hurt more than before. That said, if she is going to examine me, I think it's better to talk here.

"Oh, really.

Sorry, Netero."

"Hehe. You can apologize.

I am going to board the airship and move to a remote place.

I will go there for the examination, alright?"

"... You would do that.

Thank you, both of you."

I obediently lowered my head. This was likely to prevent information leakage.

I am very sorry to let others know, but it is such a big deal that I feel... um.

"I believe you already know, but please introduce yourself again.

I am CheadleYorkshire, Vice Chairman of the Hunter Association, a TerminalIllnessHunter.

Today I will be your attending physician."

... I feel like Netero is going to numb my senses, but you brought a lot of people. Strangely, Gon was right. My relationship with the Zodiacs continues to grow...

"Um.

... Hunter Aisha Koza.

I look forward to working with you today."

Watching me lower my head again, Mr. CheadleYorkshire's aura trembled.... Why.

"Then let's go by airship.

Please pilot the ship, Mr. Netero."

"Mm."

After flying for about 30 minutes on the airship, I sat on a Tube Chair, waiting for the examination on a rocky mountain with no man-made structures and a good view. Both of them were preparing something inside the airship.

... How should I put it?

I didn't expect to have a medical examination in a place like this... The feel of the Tube Chair is very cold.

However, I feel embarrassed about this.

I didn't see anyone else, but that's fine...

Mr. CheadleYorkshire, holding a pile of medical equipment. Netero walked toward me diagonally from behind.

Mr. CheadleYorkshire sat down facing the already placed Tube Chair. Keeping a proper posture,

"Sorry to keep you waiting.

I would like to start the examination...

Before that, may I ask you a question, Aisha?"

"Oh, yes.

What would you like?"

"... How did you come to speak of this kind of medical examination?"

"Cheadle, this is a promise you wouldn't listen to..."

"I did not make such a promise.

Please shut up, Mr. Netero."

"..."

Netero was dejected.... No, this is funny, but let's do our best. I am the one who is in trouble.

"This examination was introduced to me by Mr. Netero, so there is no consultation fee.

... But asking this question doesn't really explain the situation, so if you don't mind, I would like to talk to you about it?"

Ah, the atmosphere has become a bit heavy.... I will pay you. I will pay, so please don't ask me.

"Eh...

Um... that."

"..."

"Is there something difficult to say?"

What is it. I feel like I'm being misunderstood.... No, well, if you say it's difficult to talk about, you're right. Not that much...

"No, it's not like that...

It all started with a chat with a friend.

During that chat, this example spread some stories. Someone gave a Suggestion that I go to a hospital..."

I refused to go to the hospital, but he forced me to call Netero.

So I had no choice but to consult Netero, and as a result, he introduced me to CheadleYorkshire. Yes..."

... Correct? I wasn't wrong, was I?

CheadleYorkshire stared at my face, then looked at me with the same expression as Netero.

"Just now. Are you right?

→Mr. Netero

"Hmm. As far as I know, there are no lies."

It seems that the Professional Hunter who urged me to discuss it with him decided that I would be the best.

I guess they hoped to be able to introduce a good doctor."

After continuing to wear a somewhat disbelieving expression, CheadleYorkshire sighed. Turning to me,

"I'm sorry, out of curiosity, I asked you a private question."

CheadleYorkshire, I didn't misread...

Honestly, my mood is still bad. I think I forced myself to agree...

"Now let's start the examination.

... I want to confirm something Mr. Netero asked me beforehand.

Today, I will be having a physical examination due to suspected irregular menstruation.

There are no other physical discomforts.

Your Nen ability does not accept physical therapy involving Nen abilities.

Is this correct? →Aisha

"Yes."

Woo. I'm so nervous.

CheadleYorkshire glanced at Netero beside her.

"Are you going to stay there forever?

→Mr. Netero

"Hmm, hmm."

That is exactly what I mean."

"..."

One. A dangerous mood.

"Then...

It would be troublesome to talk to Netero later, so I don't mind you staying there."

Even if I don't speak, I believe you will keep listening to me...

CheadleYorkshire closed her eyes sadly,

"... You shouldn't look at a woman's skin indiscriminately.

I don't mind that part, so turn right. →Mr. Netero

"Hmm hmm."

Netero obediently turned one hundred and eighty degrees. A bit cute.

Female skin...

I remember waking up feeling unwell this morning. Why does my chest hurt so much...

"How many days has it been since your first menstruation? →Student Aisha."

"Hmm... three months. Probably."

"Then you have amenorrhea..."

Oh. Do you have a proper term for it?

"..."

For some reason, CheadleYorkshire looked at Netero's back with a terrifying expression.

"Just in case, I will check.

Don't you think so? →Mr. Netero

Favor? Why is CheadleYorkshire so angry?

Why did you ask Netero in the first place?

"Qi, CheadleYorkshire.

Master, don't you suspect something is strange?"

"No.

... This is important, so I will ask you again."

"No no no, this is not enough...

I don't think so. If you investigate, you will find out soon."

"............"

Oh, come on. Somehow, I was left behind, and the story is still going on. Huh, what is so scary about this?

──Aisha does not know one of the "common causes" for the cessation of menstruation, so she completely does not understand the implication.

CheadleYorkshire turned to me and sighed,

"Now, I suspect it is caused by your Qi, so I will check that first.

I want you to take off your coat and let me see your stomach... but before that."

It seems the aura is Hidden by a Nen Ability; can it be removed?

"……Of course, I have a duty of confidentiality, so I won't say any more."

Ah. That's right…… I can't see through it.

I look at Netero.

"CheadleYorkshire.

That guy's aura is likely something you have never seen before.

You had better prepare yourself."

"……I understand.

Please come at any time." → Aisha

"……Then, I will release my ability."

I have already released 【Angel's Veil】.

Through his glasses, Mr. CheadleYorkshire caught the ominous aura I am accustomed to—

────Rat!

With his eyes peeled, Mr. CheadleYorkshire almost fell backward against his chair.

"Hey——!? W-w-w-……!?"

I don't feel sorry. I can't help it...

I feel very sorry for the trembling Mr. CheadleYorkshire,

"Hmm…… CheadleYorkshire.

Regardless of my emotions, I am born with this kind of aura."

"Natural!?"

Oh, I said too much.

"Then……

How could I not go to the exam in this state, with my aura dripping like this……"

"……, ……. ……"

Mr. CheadleYorkshire just rolled his eyes and fell silent. What should I do...

"Pah.

CheadleYorkshire and...

Do you understand now why I called you?"

"……

Yes……

Honestly, I don't understand why I was sent to receive simple treatment……

There is no way to solve this problem……"

Mr. CheadleYorkshire regained his composure and sat back down. I take a deep breath. You are clearly still afraid, but you are a professional......

"... And then...

Could you take off your jacket and let me see your stomach……?

→ Aisha

"Yes."

I flipped up my jacket.

"……A little higher."

"Oh, yes."

Fumbling.

"…………"

"…………"

Why are you staring at me, Mr. CheadleYorkshire? Hurry up and examine me…… My heart is beating fast. Also, there is a haze behind Netero. Keep it in mind.

"It seems you are well-trained.

This seems a bit unusual." → Aisha

Just by looking, one can tell I am not tightening my muscles. However, it shouldn't look like a muscular body.

"Since new tissue can be seen everywhere, it seems they might be severely injured.

There might be sequelae, so don't overdo it. It cannot be healed with my Nen, only treated normally."

"Yes..."

"……

I was skeptical about the stories of Mr. Netero's rivals, but I finally believe them.

Sorry, that's irrelevant.

It's a bit cold, but please be patient."

Mr. CheadleYorkshire said, p-p-p-p-p-p stethoscope against my stomach.

"……"

"……"

Hurila. Oh, Pom-Pom Island.

Even so……

I feel that Mr. CheadleYorkshire's intense feelings toward me have eased a lot. On the other hand, my aura is as ominous as ever. I am sorry for what it is. Also, stop Netero and the Moyamoya Aura.

"............

Just touch me."

CheadleYorkshire took off the stethoscope and pressed his hand directly onto my stomach. Oh. Ah, but the meatballs were delicious.... Hey, meatballs?

Hold this posture for a moment, then let go.

"... That's enough. →Aisha

You can put your jacket back on and Hidden your aura."

"Oh, yes."

Phew. As I exhaled, I took off my jacket and activated the 【Angel's Veil】. I was nervous...

CheadleYorkshire rolled his eyes and said:

"Your ability is too amazing...

It completely erases the quality of that aura."

... I'm sure if I said I could delete "Hardness", "Hardness", "Yen", and "Hardness", I might get blown away... I won't say it.

Phew. As I exhaled, CheadleYorkshire turned around,

"Sorry to keep you waiting.

It's over now, so you can take a look here.

→Netero

"Hmm.

... How is it?"

CheadleYorkshire was silent. After searching for words for a while,

"Honestly, I don't know the exact cause.

Rather than a simple medical issue, even if there are other reasons, I don't know them.

You won't undergo a detailed examination, will you? →Aisha

"Yeah.

That's how it is, very, very, very much."

I shook my head. I didn't know what would happen.

"If...

So far, a psychogenic premonitory Obstacle seems most likely.

According to my investigation, a portion of the aura does indeed seem to be stagnant."

Ah. It is aura after all...

"But... this doesn't feel like a powerful move.

Because she has had her first period, I don't think it's a very serious situation, even if it is psychogenic. I am not a psychiatrist, so I cannot say what the cause is, but..."

Speaking up to this point, CheadleYorkshire fell silent.

"... If it is possible...

Something related to the quality of your aura...

It is possible that something you care about very much is causing the suppression."

... Chrysanthemum. Could this be the reason?

"If you can get rid of what is bothering you, it is very likely that your symptoms will improve.

After that, if you have a strong heart to push away the things you care about...

It might improve."

Ah. Hmm... the work of a strong mind, right?

"I can only say this much.

Since it is caused by the influence of your aura, it might be better for you to try and improve it yourself."

"......

I understand. Thank you."

I lowered my head.

Well, it's psychogenic, right... I think it would be better if it weren't a physical illness.

"Hmm. Well, it's important, it's important, I'm glad you're singing."

Netero said calmly.... That's correct. But the battle with you will come later. Because I was able to do what I wanted to do. It wasn't even resolved at the beginning.

"This is my direct contact.

If you want to have a detailed examination, if you discover any abnormalities, or if the current situation lasts too long, please contact us."

"Ah, yes. Thank you."

Clattering, I stood up from the chair and started to clean up.

CheadleYorkshire walked toward the airship, and after he had walked a bit further away,

"... Netero, Netero."

I waved to Netero.

"Eh. What's wrong?"

I muttered softly.

"... Hmm... about the Poster, really, it's nice to meet you..."

"Hmm...

I've been trying to arrange CheadleYorkshire, so I haven't been able to finish it yet, but I will start working on it soon."

"Truly... I am very happy to have met you.

... Also, regarding this matter, the medical arrangements made by Cheadle were indeed very helpful. I thank you. I will definitely repay this debt."

"Hehe.

... Don't worry.

I look forward to the day when I can see you without a care in the world."

"... Yes."

—Cheadle's aura of jealousy intensified once again from Cheadle; it was charming. Cheadle sensed the two of them chatting in secret, and his ears twitched.

As I swayed while looking at the scenery outside on the return airship, a thought surfaced in my mind.

... After all, regret is not a good thing.

Yes. Good.

Do not force yourself to say that you have given up.

In order not to leave any regrets, help Mr. Battera and get rid of the magical Hormone Cookie!

────Therefore, I challenged Greed Island again. Do you want to try it!

Take some time to look at the scenery outside.

... I have to prepare a lot. It's very troublesome. Ah, I have to do some Cultivation...

Personnel changes around the 13th Presidential Election

【Chairman】

12th President Netero → 13th President Aisha → 14th President Botbai

【Vice President】

Pariston (appointed by Netero) → Botbai (appointed by Aisha) → Cheadle (appointed by Botbai)

【Zodiacs】* No changes to non-permanent Association management personnel

(Both Pariston and Ging remain)

Personal status after the general election (partial only). Well, it was Netero and Leina who put it in. He intended to apologize to Botbai eventually, but Netero warned him that until things cooled down, he would force a star to his advantage, so he delayed it (Original: if you don't apply, you won't get a star; other Hunters might be bullied because they can't show it or because of the Chairman's authority, etc.). Since his strength was partially exposed during the election, it was difficult for him to rematch Netero sloppily, so he also waited for the situation to cool down. However, unbeknownst to her, she was upgraded from a rumored beautiful rookie (unofficial) to a mysterious super beautiful Hunter (unofficial) after the election. Combining ability, achievements, and beauty, she was seen as a Triple Hunter. Some Professional Hunters immediately formed an unofficial fan club, which became an instant hit; of course, the person herself did not know. If she knew, it would crush the speed (physically). In addition, the poster images were created by volunteers and were all different, but sometimes not knowing them would be happier. If you knew, it would be a quick attack (censorship).

【Lina】

Originally holding the prominent titles of Head of the Kazama Style Aiki Headquarters and President of the Rock Belt Conglomerate, the number of votes she received in the election once again showed her influence in the Hunter Association.... However, since she was also a very busy person, she did not engage in any special Hunter activities, and it could be said that things were the same as before.

With the distribution of the remaining 76 "Witch's Rejuvenation Drug" returned by Battera, she rubbed them with thick soup and handmade them into 45 and 31 cookies.

I knew about the problematic poster images, but I knew that if I told Aisha about this, she would be ordered to

"Take it down immediately."

Love eyes, it is (although I know it is a Photoshop image).

There was a reason I didn't touch it, because if I didn't get it right, it might affect the photo book I received from Biscuit. I was single-minded; it was impossible to take it away from me as a family heirloom.

... What is the mindset of a disciple holding a precious photo book of their beloved teacher?

【Netero】

Even after resigning as Chairman, his influence on the Zodiacs did not weaken, so he ended up being busy to the point of exhaustion. An omnipotent old man, with eight arms and six legs, capable of everything, yet things often went against his wishes. Pariston was working hard to achieve this. I did not quit being a Professional Hunter, and I couldn't quit from the beginning, so there was also the reality that it was difficult to completely sever ties with the Association's management.

In order to concentrate on the battle with Aisha, he was working hard to make the Zodiacs independent quickly. Of course, he was also committed to overturning Aisha's training. However, due to Pariston's interference, the rematch with Aisha did not materialize. I started thinking about dangerous things, such as getting rid of Pariston if he interfered too much with the battle against Aisha.

If Aisha became double or triple, she would receive a mission she could not refuse, and fearing that the number of matches would decrease, she warned her to avoid contact with Botbai for the time being.

In addition, the deletion and censorship of the poster images would cut a large amount of personal assets. There were so many changes!

... Although he didn't seem to realize it, his doting on Aisha exceeded that of Leina.

【Pariston】

Although he was no longer the Vice Chairman, as a cooperative Hunter, he still retained influence and real power over the government. He still resided within the Zodiacs. His influence in the screening department had weakened, but since it was enough to harass Netero and Aisha, he was not particularly bothered.

Recently, he also found it interesting to tease Botbai and Cheadle. That is to say, this was a side note; my favorite thing was to increase Netero's workload and make him bored with his busy schedule. Because he understood that hindering the battle with Aisha was the most difficult thing for Netero.

Although he was not the direct culprit behind the poster images, he was subtly inciting an unofficial fan club. He seemed to hate the darkness of attacking at the last minute before being convicted. Support the expansion of the unofficial fan club and do more.

However, besides making too many enemies, Netero was also annoyed, so I couldn't attack directly. A clumsy person who couldn't even have a little leeway if he didn't aim at Aisha.

【Botbai】

A poor man, forced by Aisha to become the Vice Chairman.

He reluctantly ran for Chairman himself, obtained majority support through a vote of confidence, and took office.... The Hunter team didn't want to be bound by the election either, and it turned out to be nothing more than a farce. Netero's request was also "let the next president be decided by election," so after Aisha resigned, there was no need to decide the next president through a re-election.

After taking office as Chairman, Cheadle was appointed as Vice Chairman immediately after being appointed. As a result, Pariston could not return to the position of Vice Chairman.

Since he knew he was worried about his political power, he asked the Zodiacs to remain at the Association Headquarters after the election and was working hard to perfect the management system. Netero's physical attitude was a delicious shape. Poor old man.

I couldn't help but worry about Aisha's true identity, but because I was too busy, I couldn't go see her. I had called him many times for various reasons, but was always rejected by Aisha. It was difficult to summon him by force, and when I asked Netero about his situation, he treated me like a jerk.

If there were any signs that Aisha and Netero would get together, I would force myself to see them, but...

【Cheadle】

At Botbai's request, I served as Vice President.

She worked with Mizaistom, Botbai, and others, dedicated to establishing a management system for the Association and reducing the influence of the Pariston system that was deeply rooted within the Association.

... When I became Vice President, I had all sorts of speculations, such as using this power to spend more time with Netero. A little bit, but so far it was working.

After successfully contacting Aisha, who had been thinking about her relationship with Netero, she breathed a sigh of relief for the time being. If Netero and Aisha collided and ended up in the hospital, I would rush to them immediately. Aisha was also noticed by a troublesome person different from Pariston...

Netero's special actions towards Aisha had been bothering me, and I couldn't help but worry all day.... Even if you are a Triple Hunter, it seems helpless to love the troublesome little Rock group.

【Ging】

I haven't quit the Zodiacs yet, but I'm still dizzy.

A troublesome father, who was obviously confused because Gon wouldn't come to him because he wouldn't read.

Due to her relationship with Gon and Netero, I had been observing Aisha's movements. Because she was good at using Nen Ability reincarnation, she gave Aisha's true identity an "Atari" (hit).

These days, I intended to fool around and return to Whale Island, trying to match once.

Hurry up and go to the Dark Continent, you.

【Terradain】

The strongest DainSpell. Is there anything good to eat?
