I'm in HxH, Survive for Five Years!

On the opposite side, Ethan raised his left hand with a calm expression, and the tips of his five fingers had nearly invisible silk threads extending all the way to Gon's body.

Gon's face wore an expression of shock and confusion, but he couldn't control his body at all. His right hand was raised high, and his throat was dry as he said, "I...I admit defeat!"

As he spoke, his expression grew even stranger, filled with horror and anxiety.

"Gon has announced that he has surrendered. In this match, Ethan wins!"

The referee didn't pay attention to Gon's expression and reaction. After seeing Gon raise his hands and admit defeat, he immediately announced the result of the game loudly.

"Fortunately, Gon didn't hold on!" Leorio breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Gon admit defeat.

Although the game was lost, compared to Ethan's earlier threat, this was a better outcome.

"No, Gon's reaction is very strange. He looks like he's lost control of his body?!"

"There is something wrong. There is a big problem with Gon's actions!"

Compared to Leorio, Killua and Kurapika were much more perceptive. When they saw Gon's stiff movements and odd expression, they immediately sensed something was off and observed carefully.

Soon, Killua and Kurapika's expressions changed, but with their excellent observation skills, they discovered that Ethan's fingertips had silk threads connected to Gon's body.

This sight made the two of them think of puppets.

'Parasite Thread': Using extended threads to control another's body, and even using the threads to vibrate the throat to make speech sounds.

Ethan released his grip on Gon and Gon suddenly chose to admit defeat because Ethan silently used the "Parasite Thread" on him.

"Using silk threads to control others is another surprise for me..." Hisoka's eyes lit up, intrigued by the 'Parasite Thread' used by Ethan.

"Using Conjurer's Nen to exert the power of an Emitter, such Nen is very powerful.

What should I do? I saved Hisoka and now I'm protecting him.

Maybe I've angered Ethan.

After the Hunter exam is over, perhaps I can contact him and see if we can resolve the conflict," Illumi thought, contemplating his next move.

When the referee announced the result, Ethan stopped controlling Gon and withdrew the threads from his body.

"Wait, I didn't admit defeat, I just lost control of my body..."

As soon as his body recovered, Gon ignored Ethan's caution and hurriedly explained to the referee.

"Sorry, your rebuttal is invalid because the result of the game has been announced!" The referee glanced at the examiners, particularly Netero.

Seeing no reaction from Netero, he decisively rejected Gon's explanation.

"How could this happen..." Gon was shocked and even looked at Ethan subconsciously.

Unfortunately, after removing the 'Parasite Thread', Ethan ignored him and walked directly to the sidelines. He returned to Lisa's side, crossed his arms, closed his eyes, and rested.

The final result left Gon naturally distraught, and he had no choice but to withdraw.

"Weird guy, he clearly has such a move, why didn't he use it from the start instead of trying to scare that kid?"

The first game ended, but both the candidates and the examiners continued paying attention to Ethan and Gon. Among them, Menchi looked at Ethan with confusion.

The power of the 'Parasite Thread' could have ensured Ethan's victory from the beginning.

This made Ethan's earlier actions seem bizarre, as if he was wasting time.

In addition to Menchi, many others had similar doubts.

"Sure enough, I am really incompatible with such a person..." Ethan, resting with his arms crossed and eyes closed, thought silently.

He had threatened Gon not as a waste of time, but to verify something.

That is, there is no need for him to have contact with the protagonist Gon.

He won't kneel down and fawn over the protagonist, but he won't go out of his way to avoid him either.

If the compatibility is there, contact wouldn't be an issue, but if it's not, then there's no need for interaction.

The result of the verification was that he and Gon were not compatible.

Being strong-willed is a good quality, but taken to the extreme, it becomes a bad trait, at least for Ethan.

Just as Killua persuaded Gon to admit defeat earlier, this is just a Hunter test, and also the first game.

Regardless of whether he lost this game or failed to pass the Hunter exam, at Gon's age, there are plenty of opportunities to make amends in the future.

In comparison, the consequences of losing limbs or endangering loved ones are far more severe.

If there were truly no way out, Gon's persistence would be understandable.

But when there's clearly a way out, and the cost of admitting defeat is low, the choice to persist, ignoring threats to loved ones, is baffling.

Perhaps in Gon's mind, passing the Hunter exam is crucial for chasing his father, a choice he can't relinquish, but Ethan doesn't share this view.

People who make choices Ethan can't agree with are incompatible with him. What else could it be?

In short, after this verification, Ethan had no intention of contacting Gon. Even if Gon initiated contact, Ethan would ignore it.

The exam continued.

Although the match between Ethan and Gon drew significant attention from candidates and examiners, the competition had to carry on.

The second game was for the right group, which included Lisa and the others.

Kurapika and Hisoka faced off in the first round of the right group.

Ethan opened his eyes to watch as both sides took the stage.

Despite Hisoka's arms and legs being crippled and his wounds not yet healed, his strength still overwhelmingly surpassed Kurapika's.
