How's it going everyone? For some, it might have been a while, for others it might be the first time. In any case, I'm glad you made it here.

You've reached the end of the first batch of chapters of this fanfic (if you're wondering why I'm doing these in batches… it just feels better to me). Did you enjoy it?

For this first batch, I tried focusing more on the story and not so much on what HxH is known for (the rather lewd part) but I hope that one chapter got you guys exited for future scenes. I personally think it wasn't the best I've done, but it wasn't bad either. In any case, I'll try to get back in shape for future batches.

Well, if you've seen my SMNT fanfic, I don't think the story/ecchi ratio is going to get like that, seeing as I want to focus more on the story.

For those that have been here for a while, a nice little piece of trivia you probably already know, this story is just as previously planned. The only difference is that I limited the cast more (but the others are still going to make appearances) and I did in one batch what I planned to do in "a few" originally.

Maybe that's why things might have moved a little too quick, and I also feel like some points, like the whole thing with Grace and all, could have been worked on better, but things should get better from the next batch onwards. I'll be happy if everyone finds it at least decent.

And for those who are new here, I had actually already posted some chapters of this fanfic, but people said it was kinda boring, so I decided to take a step back and try to make things more interesting. Hopefully, I managed to do it (please tell me I did, I don't want to work on all of this again).

Another thing that I changed is that, the story is not as dependent on the Light Novel as it was before. There are still some references to it, but nothing too big I don't think. Well, from now on it should become completely separate from the Light Novel.

In any case, I'd appreciate your guys' reviews on the story. I'll always take them to heart (though, once again, I'd prefer if I didn't have to go for another rewrite).

Well now… I killed the MC, what am I going to do now? Maybe you've guessed it, but I think you got another thing coming.

Just as I've said before, I'll keep posting this story in batches. I won't promise a date, but know that I won't forget this story. You're always free to ask me about it and I won't get mad, but don't exaggerate.

BTW, I've said this in a previous fanfic so I'll say it again, anyone is free to ask me anything and I'll answer as best as I can.

Now then, supposing everything is fine, since this story has been paused for a while, I might try to get a head start on batch 2 so I can post it sometime soon, but I promise nothing.

In any case, I hope to see you again soon.
