Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 357 Subaru Natsuki's Choice

"That's not important. What you should be concerned about now is your situation in this world, whether this world is dangerous, and how you're going to live your life, right?"

Mulu directly addresses the core essence of the problem.

"What power brought you to this world? What kind of person or creature was it? Is there a way back?"

Subaru Natsuki has too many "destined" aspects to his life; some things seem to have been ordained by fate.

Natsuki Subaru also fell silent. The initial excitement of being transported to another world for the first time had gradually faded after experiencing so many things.

It might be a difference in mindset.

Even in other "parallel branches," Natsuki Subaru will develop relationships with various female characters.

After all, it's a "light novel modification world," so girls are the most important thing.

Natsuki Subaru also agreed with Muru's statement.

He was very grateful to Emilia, who was the first ray of light that brought him into this world, but he also knew he should think about some things for himself.

"Since you are candidates for king, and he is some kind of border lord, then you must be quite strong in terms of both strength and intelligence."

Muru directly took over the questioning from Natsuki Subaru.

They inquired whether someone like Subaru Natsuki had ever existed in this world, and whether there was any information related to another world.

If not, then who are the powerful beings in this world who can allow someone to travel between worlds?

In a world with supernatural powers, asking these questions can actually provide a quick understanding of the background.

Although Roswaal feigned suspicion, Subaru Natsuki had indeed helped Emilia, so it wasn't impossible for him to share this information.

Of course, what Roswaal mentioned is relatively common information.

They had no information about people from another world, and were unsure whether Subaru Natsuki was the first person from another world.

There is no information related to any other world.

Even Beatrice's forbidden library does not contain any related information.

However, we can talk about the topic of the strong.

The first to be mentioned are naturally the three heroes who saved the world: the Sword Saint, the Sage, and the Divine Dragon, followed by the seven terrifying witches.

The text also specifically mentions the Witch of Envy, who nearly devoured the entire world.

No one knows the specific details.

Emilia trembled slightly when the Witch of Envy was mentioned.

"But if we're talking about bringing people from another world to this world, I can't think of anyone who could do that," Roswaal replied.

Roswaal doesn't seem to be curious about the other world; he only wants to use Subaru Natsuki's power to achieve his own goals.

"It seems that it will be impossible to know in the short term."

"So, what are your thoughts now?"

Muru asked Subaru Natsuki.

Natsuki Subaru didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Looks like you haven't made up your mind yet. Never mind, I have other things to do too. Think it over and tell me later." After saying that, Muru ignored Natsuki Subaru and disappeared from the living room.

"If you can't go back, you can stay here and think it over for now." Emilia sensed Subaru's dilemma.

"Moreover, these things can be thought about gradually."

Emilia told Subaru Natsuki not to worry too much about these issues.

Roswaal wanted to ask Beatrice about the elf from earlier, but Beatrice had no interest in dealing with her.

She brought her brother back to the Forbidden Library as well.

Lucci was curious about what choice Subaru Natsuki would make. With his help, even without "Return by Death," Subaru wouldn't have much trouble surviving in this world.

But it didn't last long at all.

But it only lasted for a short afternoon.

By dinner time, Subaru Natsuki had finished thinking.

He couldn't find a way back for the time being, and he didn't know what to do in this world.

In the end, he made a choice based on his own heart, which was to help Emilia become king.

However, unlike his role as a servant in the anime, his goal is to become Emilia's retainer and help her.

At least their status has improved somewhat.

"So after thinking about this all afternoon, this is all you came up with?" Muru couldn't help but complain.

"Yes!" Natsuki Subaru nodded emphatically.

This is good news for Roswaal, even though it differs from what is said in the Gospels.

Because after officially making contact with Subaru Natsuki.

The Gospels provided even more information.

At least he has now found the reason for the discrepancy with the Gospels.

That originated from Mulu.

All the changes originated from this elf.

In other words, does the other party possess the "power" to influence the Gospels?

Roswaal did not underestimate Mulligan because of his size. After all, Puck was very cute, but he was quite dangerous when he unleashed his power.

"He is him, and I am me. If he wants to order me around, that's impossible," Muru said, directly distancing himself from the relationship.

"I won't force you." Emilia didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with it.

When she considered that Subaru Natsuki wanted to become her retainer, her first thought was that Subaru Natsuki had just arrived in this world, everything was so unfamiliar to him, and he didn't have enough goals.

The issue of identity means that leaving it unattended in the outside world could be dangerous.

Taking in Subaru Natsuki was not intended to make him a retainer, but rather to give him a place to rely on temporarily.

She is just that kind.

Roswaal saw right through her little scheme, but he didn't need to point it out.

Of course, Lucci saw through it.

"That would be best."

"Although this guy is quite ordinary, he comes from another world after all. His different knowledge, experiences, and cultural background should be helpful to you."

"Don't you want to become king? He can still help you."

This assistance isn't just about physical strength; there are other aspects as well. After all, no matter how extraordinary the power, this world is still fundamentally "medieval."

If Subaru Natsuki can utilize his knowledge and insights from his own world, he can play a significant role.

In the "multi-route" world, perhaps only Natsuki Subaru in the lust route used his knowledge and insight in this area to become king and then take all the women as his concubines.

"That's right!" Natsuki Subaru realized that he wasn't entirely useless after all.

Knowledge from another world might have a significant impact on this one.

"Is this even possible?!"

In fact, Emilia's desire to become queen was not entirely pure; she also needed dragon blood to save her homeland.

"Then I'll leave it to you, 486." This kind of mutual help is probably the best approach.

She will also help Subaru Natsuki find a way back.
