[Hunter X Hunter] The Will of a Fanfiction Writer

Sen was once a fanfiction writer with a strong professional conscience. Even right up until she reincarnated, she was diligently writing out of love. Then she stayed up all night cultivating immortality, failed her tribulation, and became a five-year-old girl in Meteor City.

With barely any memories of her past life, Sen became a striking sight in Meteor City. From then on, she gained followers, became a Hunter, and turned into the kind of rich person who could indulge in everything she had never dared dream of in her previous life...

That was how it should have gone.

Sen still missed those first few years of her new life in Meteor City. They had been colorful and carefree.

Until she met Illumi, a guy who was incredibly good at taking people's money. Even a dinner date with him cost a hundred million Jenny upfront.

The impoverished young Sen had to work three jobs a day just to get by, and still couldn't make ends meet. Her money kept disappearing by the hundred million.

Later, Sen was questioned by the Zoldyck Family for using their likeness in a Mary Sue fanfiction about the real Zoldycks, violating their publicity rights. Forced to sign an unfair contract, she handed over half her royalties and helped them expand into several new businesses, including fanfiction and otome games. The Zoldyck company became the world's biggest corporation, its reputation even eclipsing the family's original line of work: assassination services.

Sen: Huh? Something about this doesn't feel right.

"I've heard that when someone dies, one of two things can happen: their Nen disappears, or death makes it even stronger."

No matter when or where, there's always something in your heart you want to change. You refuse to bow to the will of God and dream of turning the world upside down. The Nen Ability gained in exchange for death is called...

"The Will of a Fanfiction Writer."

A nonexistent bonus scene:

Years later, a reporter heard that the Zoldycks planned to retire from assassination and start a gaming company. They hurried to interview Sen Hermon, the head of the Zoldyck company.

Sen pretended to light a cigarette and recalled the inspiration behind it all.

She had been testing the limits of danger: "Don't you think the five-brother setup is common in Mary Sue novels and otome games?"

After she returned to the Zoldyck home, Kikyo put Sen under house arrest for "leaking classified information" and demanded a ten-thousand-word confession.

Sen: I get it! The five brothers are actually because Mother wanted to... (censored)

Sen crawled out of the confinement room. "Even if I die today, even if I die outside or jump from here, I'm still going to expose Illumi! When I asked him if I could write fanfiction, he agreed completely and said we'd split the royalties, but then he turned around and sold me out to the Zoldycks and pocketed a second spy fee. I..."

★★★★★

Please note:

1. This is a self-indulgent labor of love, written whenever I feel like it to unwind. There may be out-of-character moments. All glory belongs to Yoshihiro Togashi. I only guarantee I won't abandon it (

2. No unsolicited writing advice. If you're here to pick fights, get lost.

3. The female lead is overpowered. The story has lots of original characters and plotlines, and the original plot and characters may not appear until much later. She may join Big Brother Illumi later on, and might switch sides to support other people when necessary.

4. Don't ask. The answer is that the female lead is a Zoldyck Family fan, because the author is one too.
