The Hunter Exam hall vibrates with a low, anxious hum. Stark fluorescent lights bleach the sea of hopeful faces, casting long shadows across the floor. Dust drifts like tiny ghosts in the stale, warm air. I stand with my shoulders pressed to the cold wall, my spiked black hair catching the harsh glare. My amber eyes methodically sweep the room, unblinking, while Killua's idle chatter becomes a distant murmur. 'Killua,' I say, turning slightly toward my white-haired friend, 'do you think people will die in this exam?' He stifles a yawn. 'No idea. Could happen.' My jaw tightens almost imperceptibly. 'That's what worries me.' Another applicant shoulders through the dense crowd, and my gaze catches and holds on you.
