Hello~ I'm Valetharine (you can just call me Val), the author of this story.
If you enjoy the story, I’d really appreciate it if you left a comment. It’s a small thing, but it helps me know people actually like what I’m writing — and since I spend hours writing and editing these chapters, it means a lot.
Updates may be irregular since I edit chapters a lot.
Must-read information is under "¡IMPORTANT!", so if you prefer, you can skip the rest.

Reader info
(Some things may change as I continue writing.)
I usually avoid using too many reader placeholders, but they still appear occasionally.
I also try to avoid pronouns as much as possible, though the reader is still written as female. I never describe the reader’s clothing or appearance, except for eye color (e/c) and hair color (h/c) which may appear sometimes.

Story information
This story follows the original manga storyline of Hunter × Hunter, but I’ve added my own backstory, character development, and additional plot elements.
Some scenes follow canon closely, while others are expanded, rewritten, or completely original.
I don’t own any characters except for Y/n.
Characters are slightly aged up, but the romance will stay very light — the most you’ll see is something like a kiss. No smut. They’re still kids after all.
This story may include darker themes later on, such as:
- character death
- some gore (mostly light, possibly more later)
- occasional cursing
- other themes that will be warned about in individual chapters
Pictures used are not mine unless stated otherwise (currently I only use the banner I made for chapter beginnings/endings).
English is not my first language, so there may be mistakes. If you notice any, feel free to comment so I can fix them.
This is a slow burn, so don’t expect immediate romance. The relationship develops gradually as the story progresses. The story focuses not only on romance but also on plot, character development, and backstory. I try to keep Killua and the other characters as close to their canon personalities as possible. If you ever feel like a scene makes someone act out of character, feel free to point it out in the comments — I’m always open to improving the story.
Feel free to rant about characters and their terrible decisions in the comments. I promise I won’t be offended. Just try not to direct that hate at the author.
If you’re reading this while it’s still ongoing… good luck. I edit and change chapters a lot.

Fanart / commissions
This story is a free passion project that I write in my spare time. Because of that, I am not interested in paid commissions for art, covers, or comics related to it.
If you feel inspired to make fanart just for fun, you’re more than welcome to — I truly appreciate that kind of support.
You can send it to me on:
Discord: Vaeltharine
Email: [email protected]
Also, if I see bot-like comments or messages offering paid commissions, they will simply be ignored. Please do not contact me for that.
Thank you for reading and being here 🖤
Enjoy the story.

A little yap from me if you're interested:
I also ended up reading basically every fanfic about Killua, Chrollo, and Feitan… and somehow that turned into me writing one.
I also wanted to write something longer to improve my writing skills. I have a bad habit of starting stories and never finishing them, so if this one actually gets finished it will be a miracle.
I have reread and edited these chapters so many times it’s almost painful. Some chapters were rewritten more than fifteen times.
Also: writing full canon scenes sometimes feels like torture.
Update 1: Heaven’s Arena arc, I hate you.
Update 2: I still ended up writing a lot of canon scenes anyway.
Update 3: I’ve been editing this story since March and it’s already April… but honestly I’m glad I did, because the book is much cleaner now. Though, I do apologise to my readers that were excited to start Yorknew City Arc.
