Killua was perched on top of a tree after just stealing the badge of his target and chucking the other two he got away, now sitting on his 6 points to pass the fourth phase of the hunters exam.

He had come here just because he was bored and didn’t want to be at home. And he’s already met a new friend—Gon. They’re the same age and similar is strength, so they connected pretty quickly…

Lost in his own thoughts about what’s to come, he’s snapped out of it by a rustling sound coming from beneath him and in one of the bushes, only to see a head pop out.

Was there another kid his age at the hunters exam? Neither he or Gon had noticed before, and Tonpa certainly failed to mention this.

He had to admit, his curiosity was peaked.
