But in some countries, such activities are not illegal according to their laws. "This group's sources for children are a bit different. They steal or abduct them. The core members of this group are Nen users who specifically target the offspring of the wealthy." "Nobles, enormously wealthy merchants, even Nen users." "But due to their elusive movements, formidable strength, and the lack of evidence, those who've suffered losses can't do much in the open. However, there are bounties placed on them in the black market." "A fringe member is worth ten million Jenny, dead or alive." "A core member is worth three billion Jenny, dead or alive." "It's not easy to trade with them directly." "You can't raise the topic first unless they approach you. Otherwise, they'll resort to very aggressive actions." Ron's brows arched slightly. "Speaking of which, one of the Twelve Zodiacs in the Hunter Association is investigating this team. Ron, you could give the information to the Association. I believe it's the Ox who's looking into it." "But I don't have direct contact information. You'll have to find that yourself." "Alright." Ron nodded. "Thanks, Uncle Silva." "You're welcome." They hung up. Ron turned back to look at the little girl and the middle-aged woman once more. He did not speak rashly. He waited. As Silva said, even if he tried to initiate the transaction, the middle-aged woman wouldn't sell him the girl. She'd be on guard and might even attack him. It wouldn't be worth it. Ron waited because he knew that Nen users from Talis would use the Nirvana Festival's stage to stir chaos and avenge themselves against the Fiora Kingdom. Once the scene became chaotic... Ron could take advantage of the confusion to whisk the girl away. He could also have Chii hack the woman's phone. "But this middle-aged woman isn't a Nen user." "Could their group's Nen users be monitoring from nearby?" Ron scanned his surroundings. There were indeed Nen users scattered around the audience seats. But none were focusing their attention on the girl or the middle-aged woman. "Chii, hack into all the surveillance feeds and see what's going on." After receiving Ron's order, Chii began the intrusion. For others, this would be difficult, even for someone with Milluki's skills. But for Chii, it was simple. This was why Ron considered Chii more valuable than Baki or Ryūnosuke Akutagawa. Finally, the opening ceremony ended. The stars withdrew from the stage. The first phase of the Nirvana Festival was about to begin. One contestant after another stepped onto the platform. Some were Nen users, while others were not—just ordinary fighters. Nobles, commoners, members of the royal family—they were all here. Most of the audience focused on the stage with great interest and excitement. No different from the crowds at Heaven's Arena. Time passed bit by bit. Suddenly— "Boom!" A violent explosion sounded, not on the stage but in the audience stands. A huge shockwave flung dozens of people into the air. When they fell, they were nothing but broken, mangled heaps. The surrounding audience members were affected by the impact, collisions, and stampedes. In an instant, the audience area descended into chaos. Ron: "..." Ron knew that Talis's Nen users would attack. He expected the venue would become chaotic. He'd even prepared to take Miste amidst the commotion. But he never imagined it would get this chaotic. Before, Dominica had shown no particular concern about Talis's Nen users. The Fiora royal family's strength was leagues beyond these Talis remnants. Judging by Dominica's attitude, Ron thought there'd be only a brief disturbance, quickly quelled. But now... After one explosion, another followed. The entire venue was in complete chaos. It was spiraling out of control—no, it was already out of control. Ron frowned, puzzled. "How could just a few Talis remnants cause such mayhem, given the Fiora royal family's capabilities?" "Moreover, the Fiora royal family had prepared in advance." Ron thought that even if this happened at the Zoldyck estate, they wouldn't let matters escalate to this extent. This was ridiculous. Nevertheless, Ron didn't dwell on it. He seized the opportunity to snatch Miste away. The middle-aged woman didn't even notice before Ron and Miste had vanished into the crowd. When she realized Miste was gone, her face went pale with panic. Chii moved to the woman's side, slipped the infiltration software into her phone, and then put it back into her pocket. In the next moment, Chii vanished. Holding Miste's hand, Ron fled the venue at high speed, not panicked, but with a smile. "Big brother, are you going to teach me how to glow now?" "Yes, I'll teach you in a bit." Ron smiled, casually glancing back. He noticed a figure following him from afar. It was a Nen user. Ron's eyes flickered, and he turned into an alleyway. The pursuer jogged after him, entering the alley. "Human trafficker! Put down that little girl!" The young man shouted, righteousness gleaming in his eyes. A decent surge of aura rose from him, but that was all. Compared to Ron, he was far too weak—like a beginner in front of a master. Ron didn't need to use any special ability. He simply blurred forward— "Bang!" A single chop, and the man was down. Ron dragged the youth deeper into the alley. Miste stared curiously at the unconscious man. Ron searched him thoroughly and concluded: This guy wasn't part of the trafficking ring. He was actually a member of the Fiora Kingdom's nobility who had just recently learned Nen. Ron: "..." "He must have seen me taking the girl and assumed I was a trafficker. Overwhelmed by a sense of justice, he chased me down to intervene?" Ron shook his head, disappointed. When he discovered a pursuer was a Nen user, he had hoped it might be a core member of the trafficking group. But it turned out to be just a meddler. Ron left the youth in the alley. Then he took the girl to a nearby hotel and rented a suite. "Gyo!" Ron used Gyo to examine Miste thoroughly. Confirming no issues, he settled onto the sofa. "Miste, have a seat." Miste wasn't frightened at all, nor did she seem worried about the situation. "Big brother, can you teach me how to glow now?" "Sure." Ron nodded. "This glowing ability is called Nen. To learn Nen, you need to train your body. I can help you develop a training plan." Miste paused. "Will it take a long time?" "That depends on the individual. Some need a long time, others don't." "Big brother, how long do you think I'll need?" "I don't know. Only you can decide that." Ron paused and then said, "By the way, I've already paid your mother. So now you must listen to me, understand? I've bought you."
