Chapter 21: First Meeting With Netero!
Mr. Beans also informed Netero of this situation.
"He mentioned Beyond. Could it be that he was sent by Mr. Beyond?"
Mr. Beans analyzed.
"No, based on my understanding of Beyond, if he wants to negotiate with me, he can just do it over the phone."
On the top floor of the Heavens Arena, in the room that belongs exclusively to the president of the Hunter Association.
Netero speaks while stroking his curved beard with one hand.
"Even if he has something embarrassing to say and can't contact me directly, he asks someone else to convey it on his behalf..."
Netero looked through the screen at the young figure in the elevator and said with a smile:
"But he definitely won't let his people come to see me so bluntly."
"Is that so?"
Mr. Beans thought for a moment: "He is afraid that you, the President, will detain the people he sent, right?"
"No, no, no, I won't detain anyone."
Netero gently stroked his curved beard and laughed loudly:
"I just want to play a game with him and see what kind of guy Beyond chooses."
Mr. Beans: "…"
As expected, he still can't understand how he and his son think and get along with each other.
"But one thing is certain."
Netero flicked his sleeves and smiled: "There is no relationship between this young man and Beyond."
"I am a little curious about what he wants to do by using Beyond's name to come and see me."
Beyond, full name Beyond Netero, he is the biological son of Isaac Netero, the current president of the Hunter Association.
According to the name pronunciation in the Hunter world, the given name comes first, and the surname comes last.
Therefore, President Netero's real name should be Isaac.
Netero is the respectful name given to him by outsiders. They only call him by his surname and not his given name.
As the son of President Netero, Beyond is not in the Hunter Association.
He also did not carry forward the Shingen-ryu martial arts founded by President Netero and inherit his legacy.
Instead, he was always thinking about heading to the Dark Continent.
However, due to Netero's obstruction, he had to be trapped in these six continents.
To this end, Beyond Netero chose to join forces with the Kakin Empire and even placed undercover agents in the Hunter Association.
Vice Chairman Pariston Hill is his spy in the Hunter Association.
Considering the special relationship between Beyond and President Netero.
Lan came here to meet Netero under the other party's name.
Of course, meeting Netero is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is…
Ding.
The elevator arrived at the highest floor, and the automatic door slowly opened.
The first thing that caught Lan's eye was not the quaint environment of the room.
But.
"It's really unusually bright!"
The charm of the purple sheen emanating from the entire room made Lan's mouth curl up slightly.
Purple light, Special Blind-Box!!
This is the Blind Box that belongs to Isaac Netero, the world's strongest hunter and the president of the Hunter Association!
Even though he hasn't participated in any plot yet, just by appearing, he already has a Blind Box of the highest level!!
"You seem very happy."
At this time, President Netero, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the coffee table, looked at Lan who came in, with his hands in his sleeves and a calm look.
"Anyone would be happy to meet the legendary Hunter Association's president."
Lan walked in with a smile, and subconsciously glanced at the Special Blind-Box next to Netero that was emitting purple light.
[Get a Special blind box; do you want to open it? ]
Lan naturally chose no.
In front of this old monster that has lived for more than a hundred years, any slight change will not escape his eyes.
Naturally, Lan chose to be on the safe side and put it away first.
But even so, Netero still noticed something.
"Um?"
Netero followed Lan's subconscious gaze and looked to the side.
"Is there anything here?"
He glanced at the empty place where the purple Blind Box was originally.
"Or, is there anything worth your attention?"
He turned his head, looked at Lan, and nodded slightly:
"Sure enough, there is no relationship between you and Beyond."
"Besides, your main purpose of coming here isn't to see me, right?"
He didn't even add the word should, his tone was very firm, and it was obvious that he had seen something.
"Well, Beyond is just an excuse to come and see you, President."
There is no point in hiding in front of this old monster.
"My name is Lan. It's nice to meet you."
Lan walked to the coffee table, sat down confidently, and nodded in acknowledgment.
"Lan? So you see me now."
Netero's hooked beard shook slightly: "What do you want from me?"
"Originally, there was something."
Lan answered honestly: "But it's done now."
"Is that so?"
Netero nodded slightly: "Then it looks like you're doing pretty well."
"It's all thanks to the president."
Mr. Beans, who just walked into the room: "..."
This kind of conversation seems to be the usual communication between Vice Chairman Pariston and the president.
Although he was no longer surprised by Netero's eccentricity.
But it was quite novel to see that there were other people who could follow President Netero's ideas and communicate calmly.
