Inside the garden.
Kevin and Bisky sat facing each other in the courtyard. After the maid beside them finished placing the tea and snacks, she quietly excused herself and left.
"Tell me, what are your confusions that you need me to help you resolve?"
Bisky took a light sip of red tea and said with a smile.
She was going to start fulfilling her duties as a Master, answering her disciple's doubts.
Kevin nodded and said unhurriedly, as if in casual conversation, "Master, you should know that my Nen Ability has now eliminated its side effects and can be used by others.
To earn sufficient funds, expand my network, and obtain ample materials, I plan to sell the Nen Ability potions I make to the public."
Hearing Kevin's words, Bisky nodded.
In her opinion, this was a quite good choice.
Kevin's Nen Ability was essentially a purely supportive ability.
After removing the side effects, the potion's effect instantly rose by several levels, truly becoming a supportive Nen Ability.
This is how this Nen Ability should have been all along.
In this situation, selling the potions was indeed a wise move.
After all, making these potions requires some special materials, some of which are expensive, and some are even difficult to obtain.
If Kevin were to track and hunt for materials all over the world by himself, how much time would that take?
How much efficiency would it reduce?
The issue isn't whether they can be obtained, but the time wasted in between.
Earning resources by selling potions, then using these resources to buy and obtain new materials, and then making more potions to benefit himself.
This was undoubtedly a very ideal virtuous cycle, and the connections and wealth accumulated in this process were merely incidental gains.
It seems Kevin's plan for himself is very clear, which is good.
To be honest, about half a year ago when Bisky was teaching Kevin, the one thing she worried about most was that Kevin would be lost.
Although she didn't know what Kevin had gone through, when she first started teaching him, that confusion in his eyes, that ignorance of not knowing what to do, almost filled his entire being.
To be honest, even if Kevin had suddenly given up at that time, she wouldn't have felt it was abrupt at all.
Now, Kevin hasn't gone down the bad path she imagined; instead, he's getting better and better, which makes her very relieved.
In her opinion, a gem doesn't just need someone like her to polish it; it also needs to condense and emit its own brilliant light.
Her tone carried relief.
"That's a pretty good idea. I see you seem to have a rough plan already. So, you're hoping I can offer some suggestions regarding your ideas?"
Bisky roughly guessed Kevin's intention and asked.
Kevin nodded: "That's about it. Master, you've also seen the Nen Ability potions I make. Their main target audience is undoubtedly Hunters, followed by those with power and influence."
Then, Kevin briefly elaborated on some of his ideas, including matters related to the Supplier.
The Supplier is the key point.
Everything else is secondary.
"Master, you have deep seniority in the Hunter Association and must have your own unique insights into the Hunter group.
So I'd like to ask for some advice. Do you have any suggestions for me that I can consider?"
Regarding the "seniority" mentioned in Kevin's words, Bisky didn't mind and skipped over it directly. After some thought,
she gave some quite valuable opinions.
"First, I must remind you that the Hunter group is diverse. Among them are not a few stubborn, flawed in character, and using dirty methods."
Kevin was already mentally prepared for this point and nodded upon hearing it.
"However, you can rest assured on one point: for most Hunters, contracts are very important to them.
"Most Hunters value the spirit of contract highly. After all, having Nen Ability and becoming a Hunter, they more or less have principles they adhere to."
Bisky pointed out a key point that Kevin hadn't considered.
"Very much value the spirit of contract?"
Kevin hadn't expected that the Hunters, whom Bisky described as full of problems, would have such a trait.
Bisky nodded: "This can also be considered a major advantage of Hunters. Otherwise, how could the Hunter Association have its current status and privileges?
"If they didn't have this trait, why would so many people be willing to hire Hunters?
"You should know that a considerable portion of Hunters rely on being hired by those with power and influence as their main source of income."
Simply put, not all Hunters have unique ways of making money.
Many Hunters, aside from their strength far exceeding ordinary people, have no other outstanding advantages.
Becoming bodyguards or accepting commissions becomes their main job.
It is also their main source of income, far greater than the wealth they obtain through other channels.
Because those who hire Hunters are undoubtedly the top powers and decision-makers of the current era.
Coupled with the fact that they are Nen Users, the income obtained through this method of employment is also quite considerable.
After a moment of thought, Bisky gave an example based on some data she had learned from the Hunter Association.
"Take bodyguard work, for example. Many Hunters accept commissions to serve as bodyguards. These types of bodyguard missions are usually long-term, calculated in years.
"Many Hunter casualties and accidents stem from this industry. Many are severely injured or even lose their lives while performing missions.
"There have even been cases where, after the protected target was killed, the hired Hunter sought revenge out of unwillingness."
In fact, the main reason was their own selfishness.
Nen Users more or less carry some extremism that doesn't belong to ordinary people. For some protectors, failing to protect the protected person well is a huge humiliation.
These Hunters might be doing it more for themselves, but this process also helped the victim get revenge.
