The Daily Life of Saiki Kusuo in Zoldyck

So, dear readers, you've waited just as long as I have, haven't you?

The Ordinary Daily Life of Saiki K. - Greed Island Arc has premiered! Thank you for your support!

In the villa, Kusuo Saiki spent a lot of time renovating the rooms. Sometimes he had to ask his younger brothers to buy some materials, and sometimes he had to teleport out of Kukuroku Mountain to retrieve items.

The next day, Kusuo Saiki transformed the room to resemble the one from his distant memories.

Although Marshadora is a relatively populated place, it is actually quite quiet compared to the cities outside. He had just gotten used to the long periods of quiet in Kukuroo Mountain and forgot that telepathy is very common in the world of ordinary people.

"Knock knock knock." A polite knock came from Alluka. Saiki Kusuo, who had just finished tidying up the room, remotely opened the door from his bed.

"Brother, we bought groceries! Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

"Because I was given the task of cooking!"

This game has all sorts of missions!

Kusuo Saiki used his X-ray vision to look downstairs. Milluki was washing vegetables with his sleeves rolled up, while Kurt looked at the pile of vegetables, glancing at the recipe while also glancing at the ordinary non-smart stove.

"How do I start a fire..." Kurt pondered.

The three children are Nen users who have been through many battles.

But seeing scenes like this, where children are standing on stools by the stove studying how to start a fire, is quite something.

No one would stand idly by and not try to stop it.

"Does cooking need to be taught?"

"Even though it's my first time cooking, I eat so much, cooking should be a piece of cake! Just you wait and see, bro!"

As Kusuo Saiki watched Milluki peel the potato, he naturally used the Zoldyck family's assassination technique—Cat Claw—to prevent the potato from slipping. With his extended nails and body control, Milluki used this to immobilize the potato.

It's hard not to doubt the possibility of this meal being a success.

"Oh! You've come at the right time, brother! How do you eat this mandrake again?"

"What's that strange thing?"

"Huh? Isn't this a very potent herb? Without adding poison to neutralize it..."

Kusuo Saiki stood by with his arms crossed, occasionally acting as the child's all-around question-and-answer machine.

The preparations before cooking took a long time. The children arranged the dishes they were going to make in order. Since the countertop wasn't big enough, they even brought over the coffee table from the living room.

The lock turned, and the children looked up at the doorway and saw Illumi.

Illumi asked with a slight doubt, "Is this some kind of game?"

"Ah, big brother! We're completing a task: cooking for ourselves!" Milluki confessed truthfully.

"Oh, you're cooking?" Illumi's eyes swept across the table. "Why isn't there any poison?"

Miji inwardly groaned and began to argue, "Because it's for the judges, poison might upset their stomachs..."

“Oh,” Illumi replied calmly, then said, “I’ll be your first referee.”

I never expected that Illumi would show his brother complex even in a place like this.

However, with Illumi supervising him, Kusuo Saiki can finally rest easy.

As we all know, the only places to rest besides your own room are the sofa and coffee table.

However, they moved the coffee table to the front of the kitchen.

Seeing Illumi standing idly to the side, Kusuo Saiki simply moved two sofas to the front of the kitchen coffee table.

In the center of the coffee table, besides the food prepared by the younger brothers, there were also fruits, snacks, and cookies scattered around.

Illumi was invited to sit down, and casually tidied up the dishes, picked up an empty plate from the coffee table, and picked up an apple.

With his fingernails extended, Illumi waved his large hand twice in the air, cutting the apple into irregularly sized pieces, catching them one by one on a plate, and silently handing the plate to Kusuo Saiki.

...So Illumi also uses his nails as knives.

“It was Zhou who cut the fruit meticulously, so don’t worry, it’s very hygienic,” Illumi said, noticing Saiki Kusuo’s concern.

Zhou is an advanced usage of the word "念".

Kusuo Saiki pinched a piece of apple in mid-air and stuffed it into his mouth.

This also achieved cleanliness.

Illumi's eyes were fixed on the Nen he was using, so he couldn't see the Nen that Saiki Kusuo was using. He was slightly puzzled, but didn't pursue the matter.

This younger brother always has many secrets and amazing abilities. Although he is unwilling to kill, he is extremely talented in many areas.

Illumi poured out the snacks and arranged them on a plate with the fruit; he also poured out nearly half of the boxed cookies.

The cookies were an eerie purple, and the snacks were all different colors, which, mixed with the fruit, created a strange color scheme on the plate.

...Aesthetic sense, save the day.

Kusuo Saiki turned his head to look.

Illumi sat on the sofa, leaning forward, her long hair hanging down.

Those big, dark eyes were staring at Saiki Kusuo from behind his long hair.

Kusuo Saiki awaits the next installment.

"The money for the tour group has already been transferred. What do you need it for?"

Illumi thought to himself, "Just as I thought."

"I understand. From now on, you will have no debts to your family, and the company's annual profits will be directly deposited into your account."

No.

“Zoldyck has only ever lent you money from the beginning. Now those companies are all your property. If you manage them carefully, Xiaonan could become a tycoon with assets comparable to Zoldyck in the future.”

Kusuo Saiki never expected it to be this way; no wonder he owed so much money.

"The development of large-screen phones should usher in a new era for mobile phones. This involves huge amounts of capital. In order to capture the market, even Zoldyck itself needs to use the latest and most advanced products. Only with this can Zoldyck get a share. Xiaonan, you are really a genius in business."

Where, these are all things that will be proven in the future.

"Want to talk about the future of the Zoldyck kids?... Milluki, if your plan isn't precise enough, use a knife."

Mi Ji was suddenly criticized.

"Big brother, is my Zhou okay?" Kurt raised his paw to show Illumi.

“This is good.” Illumi praised, then looked at Saiki Kusuo again.

Kusuo Saiki was about to refuse when he suddenly heard the sounds of a tour group nearby.

Why is the tour group here again?

Foreshadowing the trouble of staying downstairs any longer, Kusuo Saiki suggested to Illumi:

"Well, it's too early for them to hear that. Let's go to your room."

Illumi got up and went upstairs first.

The three younger brothers were whispering in the kitchen.

You promised to help us!

There are things we cannot know.

My curiosity has been piqued! What are some things you can only find out when you're an adult?!

Is this related to the engagement we talked about before? Does our family require people to get married as soon as they turn eighteen?

—Oh dear, you guys are overthinking things.

Kusuo Saiki's room welcomed its first guest.

Illumi looked around the room.

It's rare to see a bed against a wall; in most rooms, there are two bedside tables next to the bed. My brother omitted both and replaced them with a desk by the window.

The window's placement allows sunlight to stream into the entire room, making it bright and warm.

Standing in the center of the room, facing the bed, with the bookshelf behind you, already lined with books.

Illumi was thinking.

"This layout makes the space a bit cramped. Won't it be uncomfortable to sleep in?"

Even superpowered people work hard all day to achieve this, so please don't switch with me to your dark room that doesn't face the sun.

"Let's continue with that matter. Have you noticed that the Zoldyck family heads who stay at home are all white-haired?"

Yes, besides my mother, even my grandmother lives in Meteor Street.

Kusuo Saiki: ...

The Zoldycks wouldn't send their cubs out to survive in the wild like foxes do, would they?

The only difference is that you'll have a gray hair.

"Being an assassin is a rather dangerous job. In historical records, children who are not white-haired often die during their growth due to various problems. It's not that we don't have uncles and aunts, it's just that they died unexpectedly."

"But our generation is very talented and doesn't seem like we'll die out anytime soon. In the future, issues such as the distribution of family property and rights will inevitably arise."

It's complicated... Kusuo Saiki really wants to say that he'll "die" in a year, so he doesn't need to think about these issues.

"Our family has always raised us in accordance with our talents, giving us the greatest degree of freedom while adhering to the family rules. Xiaonan, even if your personal assets exceed those of the Zoldyck family in the future, as long as you do not pose a threat to the Zoldyck family, the family will not take any precautions or hinder you."

An unexpected grace period.

"So, as an adult, Xiaonan, you are a free person. As long as what you do doesn't threaten the Zoldyck family, anything is allowed. As for whether to support it or not, our generation can make our own judgment. The elders above Dad will all be lenient."

Okay, I understand. So, it seems like no one will object if I leave in a year, right? How about I go to the Dark Continent then, disappear without a trace, and create the illusion that I died there?

"The only one who needs strict discipline is Killua."

Poor Killua, even though he's the freest person now.

Illumi just kept talking, while Saiki Kusuo just kept nodding.

Illumi advised, "Let me be blunt with you, Xiaonan. You can bring your boyfriend or girlfriend home. Your parents won't object. The family is more open-minded than you think."
