The Daily Life of Saiki Kusuo in Zoldyck

Kusuo Saiki had to face the truth: this world absolutely knew about Hunter x Hunter.

Even if he encounters superpowers he doesn't recognize, they should be related to his thoughts and feelings. It's reasonable to assume this isn't some parallel world, but rather the place he longs to return to—the place he fears will never be able to return to because he's afraid his superpowers won't be restored.

The original world.

if it is like this.

Illumi raised the needle in his hand.

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Kusuo Saiki almost rushed forward and grabbed Illumi's hand!

A subtle cracking sound was heard, and both Illumi and Saiki Kusuo fell silent.

Kuroro slowly took a step back, even trying to retreat behind Hisoka.

"Why are you stopping me, swordsman?" Illumi asked, pressing his wrist bone against his hand.

Normally, a fight would break out at this point, but who is Illumi? He treated a serious matter like a broken bone as if it were just a minor scrape on his hand, remaining completely calm.

Kusuo Saiki put his hands behind his back. Faced with Illumi's questioning, he thought of 825 explanations in an instant. But what kind of explanation could make him lower his guard against those around him? At the very least, he absolutely couldn't perform an operation like inserting a needle into a person's brain; an ordinary person would definitely die.

“Illumi,” Chrollo suddenly said, “actually, this Hisoka is Hisoka himself.”

What's a way to change the subject?

Illumi turned around in surprise: "Really?"

"Yeah, you also think this is too real, right? This is Hisoka, turned to stone."

"So that's how it is. No wonder I wanted to protect him. But why did the swordsman break my wrist?"

See, it was pulled back in an instant.

Not knowing what to do, Kusuo Saiki noticed the voice behind him and turned around.

"Um, that! Big brother!" a very enthusiastic person, clearly excited, whose body temperature was much redder than normal, said from behind.

When Illumi heard the affectionate address of "elder brother," he turned around and saw a monkey.

"Big brother, may I... can I collect stamps with you?"

Stamp collecting is a death sentence! Stay away from it!

Kusuo Saiki stepped out and blocked their path.

While Illumi was still puzzled, Kuroro, observing Saiki Kusuo's strange behavior, guessed that Saiki Kusuo did not want them to harm or contact these people.

Why protect these people? Is it because they are ordinary people from the Kingdom of Kakin? Is it because of their status as members of the Kingdom of Kakin or because they are ordinary people? Or are these people just NPCs disguised as dark creatures? I didn't think so at first, but now these dark creatures' obsession with humans has been fully exposed.

If that's the case, Illumi should have known sooner.

Kuroro tapped on the keyboard; it was Morse code.

—The content that Kuroro tapped.

—As Illumi understands it.

—This is a hunter fanatic who can understand Morse code.

Kusuo Saiki stood at the forefront with his arms outstretched to block Illumi. Although this action was intended to stop Illumi, the surrounding crowd understood from it that it meant keeping their distance.

People have immense respect for those who create such realistic cosplays, and it's perfectly understandable that cosplayers don't want them to get too close! They're obviously speaking out from outside the cosplay community!

"Commander! You're so handsome!!" someone exclaimed.

The title "Commander" startled Kuroro, who looked at the person several times but couldn't recognize who it could be.

Which member has the transformation ability? It's not Peeling Ripper, is it?

"Idiot! Bullshit! Didn't you see what kind of interaction the big brother and the swordsman were putting on?!" someone nearby immediately cursed.

It was just a comment; there's no need for such criticism. Kusuo Saiki felt ashamed.

In Japan, the popularity of Hunter x Hunter goes without saying; it's practically a household name.

More and more people gathered around, with the less enthusiastic ones watching from a distance, while the truly passionate fans flocked to the area.

I love Chapter 190 so much! I want to kneel down before them too!

Kusuo Saiki is very distressed.

Although he was even more troubled about how to deal with the two people behind him.

Illumi was very confused and unhappy about being called "big brother" by so many people.

“You, and you,” Illumi spoke, pointing to the two men who called him “elder brother,” “are we related by blood?”

Because of his displeasure, he quietly released his inner pressure, and the two people he pointed at immediately froze.

"No, I don't think so. 'Brother' and 'younger brother' are terms of address reserved for blood relatives. I don't know if you're from the underworld or some other species, but you like to use 'big brother' to address powerful people and try to establish a relationship. But in my world, 'big brother' is a term reserved for younger brothers. I'll be bothered if you call someone 'big brother' so casually."

Illumi narrowed his eyes and released his Nen pressure!

For ordinary people, Nen pressure brings immense mental stress. Combined with his persuasive techniques, it creates the most effective form of PUA (Pick-Up Artist) manipulation. Killua was once controlled by such PUA during the Hunter Exam and lost himself. Not to mention these ordinary people...

"Thump!" ×2.

The two people knelt down on the ground.

As Kusuo Saiki worried about their safety, the two suddenly shouted out their lines.

"I'm sorry, Iluni, I'm not going to be a hunter anymore."

Who told you to pretend to be Killua?

Illumi: [?]

"I...I was wrong, Illumi. Please don't kick me out of the family. I won't go to save Gon. I'll stay at home with Alluka forever..."

Who told you to pretend to be Killua too?! And don't make up storylines!

Illumi: [? ?]

This is no longer a matter of identity being leaked; it's that someone has been monitoring the history of Illumi and Killua's interactions!

Just as Illumi was in shock, Chrollo was also caught in a completely incomprehensible situation for the first time in his life.

Kusuo Saiki had an idea, and he explained it to the two of them from the bottom of his heart.

Kusuo Saiki felt very uncomfortable after lying three times in a row.

Kuroro stared for a moment, not revealing anything, and in this situation, there was no other way to understand except to believe Saiki Kusuo's explanation for the time being.

Kuroro dragged Hisoka out from behind to verify the authenticity of this identity.

"Aaaaaah, I can't take it anymore! Commander!!!"

Someone suddenly knelt down in front of Kuroro.

"Commander, Commander, that's a coat you're holding, right? Can I wear it for a moment? It might be hot wearing a coat in this weather, but even just for a little while..."

"Commander... Commander... wear an overcoat... Commander..."

Kuroro's eyes held a hint of confusion:

It's hard not to believe you're not a celebrity.

The crazy looks and sincere expectations of some people are no different from those of star-struck fans. All they want is for Kuroro to wear a coat, as if he really is a star, and for fans to expect something as simple as his clothing.

Kuroro hesitated, but he was happy to put on the coat.

Even when the weather isn't cool, he's willing to wear a coat!

He had been separated from this coat for far too long, so long that countless times he had thought he would lose this coat with the red ribbon design forever, even though he wasn't wearing two belts today and was dressed in simple casual clothes...

Kuroro put on his coat.

The moment he put on his coat and straightened his cuffs, cheers erupted!

Kuroro was somewhat surprised, but gradually began to accept the celebrity persona. After putting on the coat, he subconsciously pulled at his hair, but before he could finish the action, a wail suddenly pierced the praise.

"Brother Luo! Stop with that slicked-back hair, Luo Luo!"

Kuroro: ...

Kusuo Saiki: This is a mom fan, yes.

The screams were horrific, as if the reflection of his slicked-back hair could kill.

Kuroro hesitated and lowered his hand. He hadn't intended to use a slicked-back hairstyle, as that would require hair gel.

However, it's already confirmed that these people treat them like fans treat their idols. If that's the case, then they can probably listen to them.

"Everyone, could you please make way for us? We're leaving," Kuroro said.

Despite their reluctance, everyone was determined not to cause any trouble for the cosplayers. Immediately, some people took on the role of bodyguards, directing the clearing of a path.

However, some people decided to follow them so they could take another look, and a few more.

Many people were actually holding up their phones the whole time, but Kuroro and Illumi didn't have the concept of using phones to shoot videos, record audio, or stream live online. They didn't realize that the people watching them at that moment were far beyond their current understanding.

Kuroro walked ahead, maintaining a professional smile as he observed everyone around him.

Illumi followed behind with a cold expression, his face not looking friendly.

But there's also Hisoka among them.

A stone statue, one person holding the head with one hand and the other grabbing the foot with the other, looking extremely disrespectful to Hisoka...

Kusuo Saiki: Ugh, that's enough.

However, Hisoka's die-hard fans finally arrived, and of course, there were Hisoka fans who were already staring intently at the statue.

But this one is special.

As a die-hard Hisoka fan, a thought that popped into her mind in an instant could not be dispelled.

This Hisoka fanatic rushed through the space cleared by the crowd and stood right in front of Chrollo and Illumi!

"I have a gift I absolutely must give to you two—no, to Hisoka! You two..."

Kuroro remained remarkably calm: "We accept. What gift is it? We'll give it to Hisoka."

The astute fans immediately noticed the problem: "No! I know why you specially made the stone statue of Hisoka!"
