Inside Heavens Arena, in one of the private rooms for fighters on the 100th floor or higher. Two men were having a conversation.

"How the hell did you get those wounds on your hand?" - Asked one of them.

The other man, known within Heavens Arena as Dorian, pondered his partner's question.

"When I hit that kid, he unconsciously woke up his aura to protect himself from the impact, and also somehow, my hand ended like this. I suppose his hatsu has a cutting property or something like that. " Dorian replied.

The other man nodded.

"It seems that staying on the lower floors was effective in your search for people capable of using nen." - said the unknown man.

"The strange thing was that the boy seemed to know nothing about the nen. But definitely, his hatsu is quite troublesome. From what I can deduce, he is probably a specialist, since without having received training in nen, I think only a specialist is capable of something similar. " Dorian replied.

After a time of absolute silence.

"Should we start with the plan now?" - asked the other man.

"Not yet, I have seen another fighter who probably knows how to use nen. I will have to check it personally. " - Dorian finished saying.

At night, inside the Heavens Arena hospital, Shakal lay stretched out on a bed. His body was healed, he was only recovering energy from the arduous battle.

Although it was already night, he still couldn't sleep.

His previous battle left him with many questions, both about his opponent and himself.

"The same thing happened again, I reactivated the same aura as when I appeared in this world, but this time in my entire body. It felt so good, it seemed like all my physical characteristics exploded, reaching a level that I never imagined a human could reach. The blow that sent me out of the ring hardly hurt me. But it seems like having that thing activated drains a lot of energy. I will have to investigate more about it, maybe I should talk to that bastard Dorian, his damn disappearance trick could be related to that mysterious power. " Shakal mused.

The next morning, Shakal was already fully recovered from his fatigue. He thanked the doctors who helped him and left the medicine department.

The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

He still had some money left from his won matches, so he decided to go to breakfast in one of the restaurants in Heavens Arena.

To his surprise and luck, an acquaintance was present in the same restaurant as him.

"Hey Shakal, come to eat with me." - Eden said, waving his hand at him.

"Hello Eden, how are you?" - Shakal asked as he returned the greeting.

"Fine, enjoying the food." - answered.

"I see, it looks delicious, by the way, what floor are you on right now?"

"I am currently on the one hundred eighty-fifth floor. And I will stay there for a little while longer. I need to make even more money and it is on those floors that they pay the best. " - Eden replied, with a sincerity that amazed Shakal.

"Damn, his already on the 180th floor and we started the same day. " - Shakal shouted in his mind.

"Congratulations, you did climb fast." - Shakal said to his friend.

"Thank you. What I don't understand is why you are not on higher floors. I saw your last battle and how you activated your aura to protect yourself from the blow of your opponent. You should always use your nen in fights, it would be easier to win. " Eden said casually as he ate another bite of his food.

"Bingo!, Eden has information about that aura thing, it is my opportunity to learn more." Shakal thought.

"Nen?, I indeed used what you call aura to defend against that blow, but I do not know how to activate it myself, so I cannot use it in other combats." - Shakal answered sincerely.

"Strange, you don't seem to lie, perhaps you have awakened your nen naturally, without the help of anyone." - Eden said in a low voice.

"Could you explain what Nen is?" Shakal asked,

"Hm, let's see how I can explain it to you. To know what the nen is, I will have to explain what the aura is first. The aura is the vital energy produced by all living organisms for survival. The aura of the entire body tends to flow together, producing a mass of energy. That energy is what you activated in your combat. Now that you know what the aura is. I will concisely explain to you what nen is. Nen is the ability to use the aura that flows through the body, using different techniques to modify its use. That is what I can tell you right now, but if you want to learn more about it, you can come to my room when night falls. I will explain to you the basic theory and some other training methods. " - Eden explained.

Shakal upon hearing his friend's words was even more shocked. Now he understood more and more about the whole strange subject known as aura.

"Thank you very much, I will come to your house when the night comes. I want to know more about this mysterious power." - answered.

"Don't worry buddy, it seems you have an innate talent for nen, it would be a shame if nobody taught you how to use it. But if you want to thank me for the information I give you and what I will teach you tonight, take the hunters exam and become one. When you get the license, your debt to me will be fulfilled. "- Eden said with a smile on his face.

"I don't know why you're asking me for this, but I accept." - Shakal replied gratefully to his friend.

The two finished eating, Eden, seeing that his friend had almost no money, he paid him for his food.

Then each one went his own way. Shakal started with his daily training routine, running a few kilometers, this time he ran five, and then started practicing punches and kicks in different positions. Due to his poor economic situation, the young man was forced to train in one of the parks in the city.

Today he had no intention of fighting, he wanted to go with all his energy to his friend's Nen classes since it was an opportunity that he could not waste.
