Chapter 4
Title: Dire Circumstances...
….
As I use Ryo to run Nen through the cup, I notice that.. nothing really changes on it.
That is when I smirk a little and dip my finger into the water and taste it… yep… it's a little sweet. So that means that I am a Transmuter, now that is good.
But a Transmuter huh, well I must first train my Hatsu, by trying to make the water taste sweeter and such. Then after mastering that, it can easily be said that I have abided by my own rules and negated the risk that I put on myself. Also I will need to decide what material or element I want my Nen to mimic.
I will also need to be familiar with the material, like the material and be extensively knowledgeable about it.
But even when I think stuff like that, I look around me and see that only trash and dirt are here. So not really a lot of options, but it also has to be something that I like.
I also want it to be versatile but powerful at the same time. Just like Killua's God Speed or Hisoka's Bungee Gum.
….
..
In the next four months I trained Nen like a madman. I used Ren to train Hatsu, when I got too tired I would use Zetsu to pull my leftover Aura inside my body and help recovery.
I look at the wooden cup in front of me, I use Hatsu again and… the water is still clear but when I go to taste it. My mouth waters due to how sweet it is.
My concentration, hard work and efficiency has given me good results. I have mastered the basics of Nen now. I can even hold my Ren, which gives me a physical boost and such, for 40 minutes. It takes one month of training to increase the time you can hold Ren by 10 minutes. I am a two year old and achieved almost the same amount of efficiency.
Also the kid who seems to have disappeared four months ago… no one talks about it and I didn't either… after all, I am just your normal everyday two year old. Suspiciously after the kid disappeared our conditions got better. The older kids seem to know something but they aren't talking and I don't exactly ask, obviously child trafficking is going on here.
Now I am two years old and should be afraid for my life. But thankfully I have Nen and literally any attack by Nen is devastating. Meaning that I am like 70% sure I can beat a normal adult… but the adult also needs to be a little below average. Yep, Nen is crazy. Also I am more likely to choke the caretaker while she sleeps, than fight her while she is conscious.
But I don't plan to kill my caretaker, after all I am not sure of the situation and could possibly use it to my advantage. There are a lot of child soldiers and assassins that come out of meteor city. And I definitely need some training, I literally have zero martial training from my first life… I don't even know how to train my body efficiently. That is why I don't train my two year old body at all, even due to being in a world where the Zoldyc train their babies even while they are in the womb. But I am afraid of doing something wrong and injuring my premature body that might limit my future potential. I can't play games like this… I need to wait for the right moment.
But I know how to train my Nen at least. As a level one training method for a Transmuter is to shape his Aura at the tip of his fingers in the numbers from zero to nine. Doing it under five seconds would be considered a mastery, right now I barely have that shape type control currently. But I can really train the other more devastating advanced Nen techniques in this backyard… but I guess during the next year I will concentrate on the basics while training Transformation and Gyo… I will also think about what substance I want my Nen to mimic.
….
….
And since that day, one year has passed. I have trained Gyo and kept my training with the basic principles to a higher level. I have gotten the Transmutation training and I can make zero to nine in under five seconds.
I plan to start Transmuting my Aura into the desired effect and I have already chosen the thing I want my Aura to mimic the properties of.
I am currently eating dinner with the other children. I have also started eating by myself recently. I saw a kid do it at the same time as me (though he was one year older than me) and now I copied him. I know that it is more likely that no one in this house cares if I act too strangely for a kid or seem too smart. I just need to be careful.
As I am about to eat another spoon of rat soup.
*creak!*
The entrance to the house opens. I immediately look towards the entrance and surprisingly I see a man in a black suit with sunglasses on and a fedora.
Immediately my mind went to different options. Not knowing if this was the best time to take an opportunity like this. I see that our caretaker goes outside to talk with the man, the other kids seem unfazed by this. The older ones seem as if this is a regular occurrence to them… but how is that possible. I have been here for three years and have never seen that man before. The younger ones don't seem to care and are more worried about stuffing their faces.
I think that maybe I should innocently ask the older kids about this. But I immediately decided against it. This could be a whole thing that everyone of them knows about but I don't. It could spell suspicion for me just by asking. It seems like I will need to be careful about this.
I immediately get up and go for the bathroom outdoors at the back of the house. But as soon as I am out of view, I immediately enter a state of Zetsu. My presence is dulled to the extreme and I walk on the dirt, around the house. I look through a crack and see that the caretaker and the creepy man are talking about something. Due to it being around dinner it is dark outside, so I can't even try to read lips or something like that, though I am not good at lip reading, I could at least get something.
But that is when I get another idea and close my eyes and let go of my Zetsu state and using a soft Ren just so I can use Gyo on my ears to have a bigger output of Aura in there.
"So I will pay you 1,200,000 per kid. You can retire now." I can hear a raspy voice who I can only assume is the man.
"*Tch*... don't talk to me like I am some old woman you bastard." For the first time since I came to this world. I hear the caretaker have a harsh tone on her voice.
The man laughs at her when the caretaker says that. Due to this I am led to assume that they must at least be familiar with each-other. "C'mon now, just let someone take over for you. I remember back when we started, we were so young back then."
"Just cut to business you sly bastard." Says the caretaker, with a no nonsense voice. Leaving no room for discussion.
I hear cloth moving, which could mean that the man is checking inside the suit he is wearing. I can hear that he pulls something out of his pocket, I can only assume that it is cash or something like that.
I immediately decide not to test my luck anymore and go back inside from the backdoor. When I enter, one of the kids
It seems like they are in the child abductions business. The caretaker raises them and then the man sells off the kids. But I guess the caretaker keeps the older kids who are hardworking and nice so they can help raise the other kids.
I wonder where they sell the kids. Is it just the usual s*x trafficking or maybe organ harvesting. Anyway, I am getting out of here as soon as I get the opportunity.
….
And that opportunity came that night as soon as everyone was asleep. I had my eyes wide open and no need to sleep for tonight.
….
AUTHOR NOTE:
This MC waits for an opportunity and likes to be in knowledge of the situation around him. But he has seen that staying in there anymore would be detrimental to him. He thinks that he might be able to take on an adult, but even that is debatable. So two adults would wreck a three year old him.
P.S: He didn't train as hard as he could during the third year. Instead he decided to spend his time trying to think about his Special Ability, and getting to know understand and so on, the thing that his Aura will imitate.
