Borksen’s Deception Uncovered in HxH

Borksen’s Dilemma: Yes or No

Morena confronts BorksenBorksen's cheating revealed

In the recent chapters (407-409) of HxH, the intriguing card game between Morena, helming the Heil-Ly, and Borksen, a member of Tserriednich’s security, takes the spotlight. The suspense culminated when Borksen chose the “Yes”card, raising eyebrows among fans, particularly because she initially resisted participating alongside Morena. The reason for her choice is unveiled: Borksen was cornered into selecting between “Yes”or “No”due to her cheating. Morena’s Nen ability limits options to these two if dishonesty is detected.

During the game, Borksen’s infraction was subtle; she marked a card discreetly in an attempt to verify its authenticity. Despite her efforts to mask this by crumpling the card after, her deception was not overlooked by Morena’s skillset—resulting in a fitting penalty. Though she proclaimed her choice of the “Yes”card, internally, this was not her desire, illustrating the manipulative power that Morena holds. The repercussions of a “No”selection could have proven fatal, further complicating Borksen’s predicament.

With Borksen’s affirmative action in the card game, she has activated another component of Morena’s Nen ability, which subsequently necessitates further conditions for Borksen’s ascent within the Heil-Ly ranks. Borksen is now on the brink of advancing from Level 0 to Level 1, contingent upon witnessing a murder committed by the Heil-Ly.

Morena elaborates on her Contagion Nen ability, explaining a tiered structure of power levels: civilians are Level 1, Nen users are Level 10, and princes are Level 50. A notable revelation is her analogy likening Contagion to a gaming application, wherein she oversees member data, levels, points, locations, and statuses. Escape from this oppressive game is impossible unless one achieves Level 100 or the demise of the administrator.

Members of the Heil-Ly enjoy relative freedom, hanging on to their roles as long as they prove useful, revealing a cutthroat hierarchy where betrayals are imminent when one ceases to be advantageous. As Morena chillingly states,

We will betray you the moment we realize you’re of no use to us.

Determined, Borksen seeks to engage with the Heil-Ly and enhance her skills promptly, aware that without acquiring a Nen ability soon, her survival is at risk.

Benjamin Takes Action in Chapter 410

Capture of the Princes by Benjamin

Paralleling Borksen’s turmoil, the backdrop of Martial Law unfolds chaos across Kakin. This declaration marks a tumultuous wave wherein military forces are scouring for rebels and suspects, significantly affecting the dynamics of the Succession War.

Chapter 410 reveals the aggressive approach taken by Benjamin under Martial Law as soldiers investigate rooms associated with the Heil-Ly, specifically targeting room 3101 where pivotal events transpired in earlier chapters. These soldiers inform Benjamin of potential findings, indicating that many princes may have met their end at his hand—a plausible speculation considering the leverage he seeks over the throne.

Benjamin’s true intention appears to be capturing the princes as leverage rather than outright slaughter, although fatalities could occur. He expresses a frantic urgency, aware of the limited timeframe before his demise due to a mysterious affliction, allegedly linked to the weapon that targeted Halkenburg.

With only about nine hours left, Benjamin’s objective sharpens: he aspires to ascend as the next monarch, immediately preparing to elevate his illegitimate child to the throne posthumously. This revelation aligns with previous fan theories stemming from hints sprinkled throughout the narrative.

Benjamin boldly declares,

I can hand the throne over to my child!! Emergency Law Article 1!! “Sustaining the monarchy in a crisis” will apply!!!

Release Date for HxH Chapter 411

In the meantime, enthusiasts can catch up with previous chapters, including up to the pivotal Chapter 410, available on platforms such as Viz and MangaPlus.
