The Daily Life of Saiki Kusuo in Zoldyck

The two were building blocks, and this harmonious scene was witnessed by Kikyo, who was keeping a close eye on the monitor.

"Anada, hey, Anada."

"What's wrong?" Silva was looking at some documents, and after Kikyo called him twice, he finally turned around to look.

"Do you think Kusuo might have made a wish to Alluka for power or something? After all, that kid..."

Silva stopped what he was doing and started watching the surveillance footage.

The feeling of being watched.

Kusuo Saiki sensed it, and at that moment, he and Alluka finally completed the "pyramid".

"Asked by Kusuo Saiki."

"Hey, of course!" Alluka clapped her hands happily.

"Brother, Nanica wants the world to be plunged into darkness!"

It would be terrible if my parents heard me having such dark thoughts.

Kusuo Saiki's worries about Nanika deepened. After all, she was a child of the Zoldyck family; did she possess a dark talent?

However, this wish was easily granted. Kusuo Saiki leaned over and covered Alluka's eyes with his hand.

It's pitch black, just close your eyes.

In the end, the money was completely wasted.

Kusuo Saiki's hand was held down by a pair of small hands, and Kusuo Saiki knew that the person in control of his body had changed.

Nanika tilted her head.

This question seems too difficult for a child who is over three years old.

After thinking for a long time, Nanika said, "My wish, yes, it can be granted."

Any wish can be fulfilled.

The price is paid by the next person who makes the wish.

The ability test for Alluka is now open to all Zoldyck.

Kusuo Saiki knew that Alluka's price did not increase linearly due to the difficulty. For example, bringing his great-grandfather back from the Dark Continent required a great deal of effort from Alluka, but conversely, the punishment was very small.

Later, everyone learned from Killua that if Alluka used her healing powers, the next person would not be punished.

Nanica is gentle; his punishment is to curse those who make sinful wishes.

However, Nanika's power has its limits. If she accomplishes those incredible feats without someone else bearing the consequences, she will bear the cost herself. Saiki Kusuo's visit wasn't to directly wish for Nanika to return home—that would be terrible if he couldn't. He wanted Nanika to teleport him to the Dark Continent. He needed to know the extent of Nanika's abilities to calculate approximately how old she would be before she could send him back to Earth, to the Moon, or even the Solar System.

Kusuo Saiki only needs that little bit of help to go home. He can travel through time, whether it's early or late, or find his original world in a parallel universe. But right now, he seems to be trapped in the entire world of the Hunter x Hunter manga. The infinite distance of this world is nothing but darkness, and he has no clue what to do. And Nanika might be the key to leaving this place.

However, he doesn't like owing favors.

Before making a wish to Nanika, he was determined to change Alluka's fate as a way of repaying her.

Nanika didn't consider whether her wish was right or wrong, nor did she think about how Saiki Kusuo would return. She simply obediently replied, "Okay."

Meanwhile, the surveillance footage closely watched by his parents also revealed Saiki Kusuo's insincere words.

"Send me to the vicinity of Illumi."

Chapter 12 Hisoka's Heaven's Arena

The moment Nanika teleported Kusuo Saiki, Kusuo Saiki focused intently on observing his body.

First, the source of Nanika's power is a mystery, just as Alluka can only sense Nanika's consciousness within her body, but cannot sense her physical form.

Power only appears out of thin air when it is used, but it needs to be guided by Nanika, and this guiding step is where Alluka's energy is consumed.

Five seconds. In those five seconds, the black hole above their heads took shape, transforming from energy into a visible entity, carrying away Kusuo Saiki. Alluka also visibly grew drowsy within those five seconds. Did this mean that the Dark Continent was already Alluka's current limit? Kusuo Saiki wondered, stroking his lips.

In the next instant, he was already in the air somewhere on the Dark Continent, with a bottomless abyss beneath his feet, from which came the long howl of some kind of beast.

Kusuo, who could understand the voices of all things in an instant, heard such a voice.

Oh dear, is this how the Dark Continent treats its guests?

However, Kusuo Saiki had no intention of staying any longer. His parents were watching closely and would contact Illumi immediately to ask if he had reached Illumi's side. Kusuo Saiki was currently using his Clairvoyance to search.

Illumi is on a mission. Kusuo Saiki knows he's near the Heavens Arena because just recently, Illumi called to ask if he wanted some limited-edition chocolate.

Great, found it! Teleport!

At this moment, Illumi was making arrangements at the Heaven's Arena.

Killua is now over three years old, but he has already shown great talent. Illumi and his parents discussed that when Killua is four years old, he can go to the Heaven's Arena for trials and fight his way up level by level, which is more reliable than Meteor City.

An older brother who loves his younger brother should pave the way for him early on.

It's a pity there are freaks like Hisoka, but by the time Killua grows up to be old enough to take the Heavens Arena trial, Hisoka will probably have lost interest in it.

Illumi had just accepted the extra money he won from betting on Hisoka, and after saying goodbye to Hisoka, he was greeted by Kusuo Saiki falling from the elevator.

His killer instincts made him turn around quickly to attack, but when he saw it was Saiki Kusuo, he hesitated. He hesitated for a moment but did not hug or protect him. Instead, he left the spot.

Bang! Kusuo Saiki fell to the ground.

Although nothing was broken, what about brotherly love?

Kusuo Saiki complained as he got up from the ground and dusted off his clothes, removing non-existent dust.

"Are you really Nan?" Even now, Illumi still has doubts. Yes, as a brother-complex person, he had long recognized that Nan was not an imposter, but he still did not approach due to common sense.

Kusuo Saiki didn't speak; rather than facing a troublesome explanation, he preferred to wait for his parents' call. Hmm? That person is…

Hisoka stood not far away, observing with the card in his mouth. It was clear that Illumi's departure was due to the sudden appearance of the pink-haired boy. Who was this boy?

Illumi answered the phone, and Kusuo Saiki met the gaze of Hisoka with blue hair.

“Hey boy, fate has brought us together… Is there anything I can do to help you? Would you like to sign up?” Hisoka casually put his arm around Saiki Kusuo’s shoulder.

How many lives would I lose if I attacked from the first floor upwards? Forget it.

"You can sign up as young as four! If you win, you get money—you can buy candy and chocolate! Come give it a try!"

Hisoka, for some unknown reason, became extremely curious about just how strong this seemingly well-behaved little boy was.

It is a great honor for Sky Arena to have you as a free salesperson.

Despite his words, Kusuo Saiki was unwilling to go. The person in front of him was a notorious pervert, and although the pervert was quite beloved by the audience, a pervert was still a pervert.

We need to find a way to escape. Breaking free isn't impossible, but it might ignite this person's competitive spirit.

Fortunately, Kusuo Saiki is not alone now.

Suddenly, Illumi reached out and grabbed Hisoka's arm as it touched Nan's. While Hisoka was still chatting with his parents on the other end of the phone, the hand gripping Hisoka revealed sharp claws that were only used to kill.

"What does Xiao Yi mean? ~A long-standing friendship..."

Hisoka didn't finish his sentence. Instead, Kusuo Saiki, in a moment of quick thinking, threw a rag at Hisoka's face, successfully stunning him.

If you ask why, the Zoldyck family has an ironclad rule that minors must abide by.

A killer has no friends.

The reason it's an ironclad rule for minors is because Grandpa has "friends" like Netero.

At least now, if Illumi is found to have friends, he will definitely be interrogated strictly, and may even have a butler accompany him 24 hours a day for a long time.

"Illumi, did I just hear someone calling you Illumi? What's going on?"

"Yes, he used a disguise to kill someone, and he's dead now, Father." Illumi gave Hisoka a verbal death sentence without changing his expression.

The father didn't ask anything more on the other end of the phone, but instead told him to take good care of Nanxiong and bring him home as soon as possible before hanging up.

In the manga, Illumi and Hisoka are definitely friends, without a doubt. Look, he even helped Hisoka out of a predicament.

However, Hisoka, who had been hit in the face with a rag, was clearly not satisfied. He puffed out his cheeks and threw a handful of cards at the two of them without hesitation.

Who said every Zoldyck kid is that strong? Although I won't get hurt either.

Kusuo Saiki remained expressionless, clearly seeing the trajectory of each card. He took a few slow steps, but successfully dodged each card with simple movements before they touched him.

After all, Hisoka just throws things around randomly, so there are no blind spots.

Suddenly, Illumi unleashed a burst of Nen pressure, severing cards that he would normally easily dodge with his needles. His hair, recently cut short, was whipped about by the Nen aura emanating from him in anger, giving him a menacing look.

"Hisoka, I warned you not to lay a hand on my brother, or I would kill you."

"Yes, yes, yes, Xiao Yi, you're being too cautious. If your brother is going to fight in the Sky Arena, do you think I'm the only enemy?"

“Killua is coming to the Heavens Arena. Kusuo is different; he's never been trained and is very fragile.” Illumi affectionately patted Kusuo Saiki's soft head. “Kusuo, did you hurt yourself when you fell?”

As the "weak" younger brother, Kusuo Saiki could only lower his head and let him touch him:

"Hmm~ You really can't do anything to your brother?" Hisoka examined the cards on the ground. If Kusuo Saiki hadn't done anything, it was impossible for all the cards to have been lost.

Hisoka was answered by nine merciless human-shaped nails, which passed through both sides of Hisoka's neck, the top of his hairline, both sides of his neck, both sides of his waist, and two more, one passing through the gap between his fingers as he threw the cards, and the other heading towards the most dangerous place for a man: between his legs.

An ordinary person would be injured if they moved even slightly, but Hisoka knew exactly what Illumi would do at that moment, so he remained still and successfully avoided injury.

The nails were driven into the wall behind, using a hidden force. The wall inside had been damaged, with countless cracks, but the surface of the wall was still barely intact.

"That's scary, Xiao Yi, I was just kidding~"

I agree that he's a terrible brother complex. Kusuo Saiki muttered to himself.

You're scary too.

Because the wall was intact, no one dared to ask them for compensation. After they left, the wall collapsed suddenly as the workers removed a few nails.

"Hey, I told you to take apart the nails, not... I told you to use your mind, you idiot!"

"What? No, I didn't... I..."

"The money for repairing the wall will be deducted from your salary! Seriously, you should go do something else first!"

"No, I really didn't! Ah! I have to find those people, what the hell!"

Only this unfortunate employee's wallet was damaged.
