Story

“Hunter”…a title for those who pursue valuables such as hidden treasures, bounties, gourmet foods, ancient ruins, and rare beasts.

Seeking to become a Pro Hunter, you try your hand at the Hunter Exam, which is said to have a passing rate of one in several million. Those who pass earn a license allowing them access to the highest of privileges.

However, unprecedented events begin to unfold at the exam site one after another.

Seemingly impossible tasks presented by the examiner.

A clash of fierce contenders amidst a deadly mind game.

A supernatural incident brought about by a mysterious ability.

And with a sly grin on his face appears Hisoka the magician!

This grueling exam will push your abilities to the limits. Do you have what it takes to pass?
