"And their she goes, huha I hope she has fun. " Pitou said as she felt Mira go beyond the range of her En.
She felt a strange sense of loneliness as she saw Mira running off in the distance from her perch on one of the pillars of the palace roofs.
"Hmm, now where could they be?" Mira said aloud, as she was walked across the plain surrounding the palace.
She pulled out her phone from the pocket of a fancy amethyst dress with frills around the collar, sleeves, and knee length skirt she got from Pitou shortly after the day she arrived at the palace.
"This is the right direction, right? Mira asked herself as she set off.
Looking at her phone and pulling up the map on it, showing that she was indeed heading in the right direction.
"Pitou said this was the direction she instructed those chimeras to go in, how far did the get?" Mira thought as she looked up and scanned the horizon. As she looked her attention was drawn by three little shiny dots far in the distance.
"Huha, there they are!" Mira said smiling as she spotted the Nen silhouettes of the chimeras.
She enhanced her eyesight and zoomed in on them, spotting a familiar red lion along with a yellow dressed girl with a pink hat and a very insect like chimera.
"Wow they got farther than I thought, alright time to meet them!" Mira said smiling in anticipation as she started running across the plain and into the forest, covering over a hundred feet with each step.
She closed the vast distance in a short amount of time as she used her super strength to catch up with them, stopping without making a sound just a few yards behind them.
"Let's just get this done, the sooner it is the sooner we can get in Neferpitou's good graces. " Leol said said as he walked with Hina and Flutter.
"Hello!" Mira said suddenly from behind them, causing them to swiftly turn around.
"A human this close, how strange. " Leol said, showing a predatoral smile.
"Oh, can we eat quick? " Hina asked smiling at the idea of a meal.
"Sure I think we've got some time to spare, just make sure to leave as much of the meat intact as you can. " Leol said looking at Hina.
"Okay!" Hina said cheerfully.
"Huh?" Mira said confused at what she was hearing.
"Brother, Pitou, and even the others said I looked very human like, am I really that indistinguishable from a human?" Mira pondered, lost in her thoughts, until seeing the yellow dressed girl walk up to her.
" Hold on didn't P-" Mira tried to say but before she could finish, Hina was already reaching for Mira's arm planing to tear it off.
"Aaaahh!" Hina screamed as she was suddenly sent flying back.
Before she could touch Mira's skin a dense arua enveloped Mira and knocked Hina away with a strong invisible force.
All three of them were stunned and overwhelmed by power of Mira's aura.
As they felt it for the first time they were paralyzed with fear by the sheer volume of her aura, then they saw a Nen construct floating behind her.
Mira's aura was a deep cherry pink red and extended only 8 inches from her body, the aura shroud around her was shaped to resemble her silhouette.
She had a round lavender colored metallic orb the size of a large beach ball, with a pair of disembodied rainbow glass wings and a bright pink heart with two solid black dots in the center for a face hovering behind her.
Mira was a specialist Nen user that has full mastery of the enhancer, transmuter, and conjurer Nen category, and was a Nen genius specializing mainly in defense.
This was one of Mira's strongest abilities, the aura silhouette around her was her Nen ability Bastion barrier.
This ability created a protective layer of aura around her and though it appeared thin, it was made of 70% of her was shaped into a thin but extremely dense smooth silhouette of Nen that enveloped her figure.
Not only did it provide an extremely powerful defense, it also had the ability to negate and block the impact, force, speed, and strength of any attack preventing any attack from touching her.
The Nen beast floating around her was her ability Guardian Sentinel/Mirror Demon, this Nen construct was a counter type Nen beast that had no offensive capabilities except for it's ability Mirror shield.
This Nen beast was designed to retract instantly to any attack, threat, or hostile action directed to Mira. And protected her by automatically activating her Bastion barrier and it's ability Mirror shield to defend, depending on the nature of the attack determined on what ability would be used.
It's ability Mirror shield worked by reflecting any physical or Nen based attack that could damage her back at the attacker. And if it was a Nen ability that was indirectly attacking her, it would just be negated.
As long as she had Nen these abilities would remain active, technically the only way to break her defense was to deplete her aura reserves. But because she had 2/10ths more aura than the king it was next to impossible.
These abilities were developed at a subconscious and instinctive level, when the king caused them to be born the pain from the forced birth and exposure to the king's aura caused Mira's aura to awaken and her subconscious mind and instincts developed these abilities in response to protect her.
And just as they appeared the dense aura, pressure, and Nen beast vanished a moment later without a trace.
"W-who are you." Leol managed to stutter out through his fear.
"I'm Mira the king's sister, so what was that about?" Mira asked confused as she looked at them with a raised eyebrow.
"Huha!, please forgive us, we thought you were a human! " Leol said as he, Hina, and Flutter quickly got to their hands and knees and pressed their heads to the ground, frantically apologizing in fear of being killed.
"Okay, okay, so who are you three Pitou didn't really tell me your names. " Mira said finding their behavior strange. Overlooking the fact that they saw her as a meal just a few seconds ago.
"I'm Leol and these are my comrades Hina and Flutter, it is a pleasure to meet you Mira-sama." Leol said as the three of them stood back up.
"Thank goodness, that could have been the end for us." Leol thought relieved that the monster before them spared their life's.
"Yeah it's really nice to meet you, wow we really look alike. " Hina said noticing how human Mira looked, besides her eyes, pearl white skin, and teeth physical traits which were normally hidden by her Void Presence.
"Oh wow your right, we both look very human like I've never seen another similar to me." Mira said smiling as she placed her hands on Hina's face, suddenly interested in every detail of Hina's appearance.
Not noticing that her inspection was making the yellow dressed girl a little nervous as she looked at and played with her face .
"So Mira-sama what brings you this far out from the palace?" Leol asked still a bit shocked from feeling the power of her aura.
"Oh I was getting bored and wanted something to do, and Pitou told me about a mission so I thought it would be fun to do so here I am. You have really pretty eyes you know that Hina? " Mira said cheerfully as she explained her reasons, finely letting go of Hina's face.
"Ahh t-thank you, yours are pretty too, they actually look like pink rubies." Hina said admiring Mira's shiny bright pink eyes.
"Her eyes have no pupils, how strange." Hina thought keeping that fact to herself.
" Are you saying you want to help us out on our mission?" Leol asked still wary of the small but deceptively powerful young girl.
"Sure it sounded like it could be fun, that's why I'm here now let's get going!" Mira said excited by the prospect of getting to explore and have some fun.
"Yes let's get going." Leol said as his group continued on their way, now accompanied by the young chimera queen.
" Ha, he owes me one now." Leol said smiling happily learning from Flutter that Cheetu was indebted to him through telepathy.
"Hmm, what's up?" Mira asked as she and Leol were walking through an open area in the the forest.
Since she couldn't use telepathy she had no idea why Leol was suddenly so happy about.
"Ahh Flutter just told me that Cheetu is in the area, and that Cheetu thanks me for helping him earlier." Leol said smiling as he looked down at the young queen.
"Who?" Mira asked staring blankly at him.
"He's a squadron leader level chimera ant, he's ahh hold on." Leol said suddenly pulling out his phone upon hearing a ring tone.
"Ahh I think it's mine." Mira said pulling out her phone.
"Ahh, hey Pitou can you hear me?" Mira asked as she remembered what Pitou said about how to answer a cellphone.
"Yes I can hear you just fine Mira-sama, can you put me on speaker?" Pitou asked.
"Sure give me a sec, ahh I think it's this one." Mira said pressing a icon on the touch screen of the phone."
"Did it work Pitou?" Mira asked hoping she hit the right icon.
"Yes it's working, now the target has taken down some soldiers in the city of Leoustin, set up an ambush a bit up north I have a hunch." Pitou said sounding confident.
"Got it." Leol said checking the map on his phone.
"Okay thanks Pitou!" Mira said speaking into the phone.
"Have fun Mira-sama." Pitou said before ending the call.
"So we heading there now or are we going to meet up with this Cheetu? " Mira asked as she put the phone back into the pocket of her fancy dress.
"Let's meet up with Cheetu first, he'll come in handy with dealing with the hunters after he gets the hand of using Nen, sound good Mira-sama? " Leol asked trying to read the young queen's expression.
"Does she only know how to smile or what?" Leol thought as he looked at Mira with a near constant smile on her face.
He was finding the young queen hard to figure out, since she was mostly smiling all the time and hardly showed any other expression than a smile or a curious look.
"Hm, sure I'd like to meet this Cheetu anyway, just let me know when Flutter spots the target." Mira said as she and Leol made continued on their way.
"You sure he's going to be here, we've been wait for over 2 minutes." Mira said sounding bored as she checked the time on her phone.
"Your right he should have been here by now." Leol said tapping his foot as he waited.
Mira and Leo had been waiting for Cheetu at a spot that Leol said he had set with Cheetu to meet up. But despite being being know for his speed so far Cheetu was running late.
"Oh, I hear him coming." Mira said putting her phone up.
"Hmm? Leol said as he perked up his ears to pick up any sound, but didn't hear anything but the wind.
Suddenly a yellow blur came through and stopped in front of them a few feet away, revealing to be Cheetu the humanoid cheetah chimera.
"Hey." Leol said greeting the cheetah chimera.
"Hey." Cheetu said back.
"Sorry that I had to stop you." Leol said smiling
" I don't mind, is the king this way Hagya? " Cheetu asked in a playful tone.
"Grrr." Leol growled in response, showing a n angry scowl.
"Yeah, I know it's Leol now. Cheetu said without a care.
"Hey are you okay, you have a a Nen curse on you." Mira said noticing the floating toy like Nen construct.
"Oh is that what this is, a hunter hit me with it earlier but so far all it does is follow me around." Cheetu said flicking the thing away, only for it to come right back.
"So who are you, I don't remember seeing you before? " Cheetu asked looking at Mira curiously, trying to gage the human.
"Oh, I'm Mira the king's sister nice to meet you." Mira said introducing herself.
"Oh, I didn't know the king had sister you look just like a human." Cheetu said smiling at her.
"So Cheetu you want it gone?" Leol asked smiling as he looked at Cheetu.
"Hmm?" Cheetu said surprised, his interest clearly peaked.
"I said, you want it gone? " Leol asked again.
"Sure , but you want something in return right. " Cheetu said in a knowing tone.
"Ha, your a sharp one we're currently tracking a human, probably a hunter." Leol said.
"Those can be tricky to deal with deal with." Cheetu said remembering his encounter with knuckle and Morel.
"Leol-sama, I've spotted the target travelling on a road northeast of Leoustin. " Flutter said spotting Killua.
"Oh Lady Neferpitou's hunch was right on the money." Leol said smiling at hearing Flutter's report.
"Hmm, what happened did Flutter find the hunter?" Mira asked straightening up from her spot on a boulder she was sitting on.
"Yes he found them on a road northeast of Leoustin, my troops well be moving in on them shortly." Leol said happily as his plan was starting to commence.
"Cool can you show me where they are, I'd like to play with them and get in some practice." Mira said excited as her smile grew wider, her mischievous side on full display.
"Ah, well Flutter's already got a plan to take them down and I wouldn't want to trouble you Mira-sama." Leol said smiling to her, trying his best to hide his nervousness.
"That's fine I'll be there in case something happens, could be fun to watch them." Mira said as she hopped down from her perch.
"Alright here's where Flutter said they were, have fun Mira-sama." Leol said as he pointed to where the hunter was located on the map of his phone.
"Alright I'll be off then, see ya!" Mira said just before she set off, turning into a blur as she ran.
