Kukuroo Mountain. Silva's demand was abrupt.
Law remained calm in response, but Killua couldn't.
That not-so-subtle physical reaction was enough to reveal sothing.
Even if Killua hadn't reacted, Silva and the others likely believed Law and Killua had established so transaction with content they hadn't confird.
eting Silva's gaze, which revealed nothing, Killua instinctively lowered his head.
If he revealed the transaction content, he might completely lose the chance to take Alluka out of that room.
If he didn't, and it was exposed later, there could be serious consequences.
Killua gritted his teeth, his gaze fixed on the floor.
He didn't realize his thoughts were hardly hidden from Silva.
Unaware, he was like a drowning person, struggling desperately no matter what.
To tell or not to tell?
Killua struggled.
Beside him, Law watched calmly, as if detached.
In fact, Silva focused on Killua. If the question had been directed at him, he probably would have answered imdiately.
From his standpoint, naturally, he wouldn't hide but directly confess, then maneuver accordingly.
But if it was Killua, there was no need to tell the truth.
Even if he did tell, it didn't matter. As long as that ultimate rule wasn't known by Silva and the others, their chance of success was infinitely close to 100%.
'Killua's 'command' can make Alluka do anything without paying a price.'
Once this rule was known by the Zoldyck Family, Killua would probably be confined imdiately.
anwhile, this was what Killua was thinking about.
Illumi's second needle showed no sign yet, but Killua hadn't relaxed, remaining vigilant during his ti at ho.
He didn't know Silva leaned towards not inserting the needle. But if Silva and the others learned of that rule, regardless of previous thoughts, they would eagerly insert the needle into his head.
Given that, what could he say to conceal it seamlessly?
Killua thought hard, information churning in his head, but couldn't find a flawless answer.
In other words, given the current situation, he couldn't hope to conceal everything.
He needed to reveal the general idea while covering the details.
Killua looked up, t Silva's gaze, calm like hanging icicles, and said, "I want to take Alluka out of that room, but I know I can't do it alone, so I wanted to ask Law to help ."
The true answer in his heart was: Let Alluka regain freedom!
Killua omitted the word 'freedom' in his answer.
Hearing Killua's answer, Silva's eyes and expression showed no ripple.
After a mont, he made no direct response to Killua's answer. His gaze slowly shifted to Law.
"Regarding going out, please wait for arrangents."
After saying this, Silva didn't give Law a chance to object and walked directly towards the door.
Tsubone and Amane bowed slightly to Silva's retreating back.
Law also watched Silva's back, frowning slightly.
Not giving a specific ti, but telling him to wait for arrangents.
Honestly, without constraints, he didn't want the Zoldyck Family to make him wait too long.
Killua quietly sighed in relief. Though he couldn't tell what his father was thinking, he had managed to handle it.
'I wonder what Law's plan is.'
Killua looked at Law, who also looked back.
They gazed at each other without words.
Silva left the room and ca to another, larger room.
Inside was a set of red dragon-carved chairs and a table. Maha, Zeno, and Kikyo were there, each sitting in a chair.
Silva entered the room and sat beside Kikyo.
"This matter cannot afford any mistakes. You and Tsubone will closely follow Alluka throughout, from departure to return. Your eyes must not leave Alluka for even a second." Zeno looked at Silva.
"Understood."
Silva agreed.
This matter could barely be defined as a commission. But considering various aspects, before taking Alluka out, they needed to minimize risks from all sides.
Therefore, they needed to sacrifice at least two people to clear the accumulated wish levels.
This was the Zoldyck Family's attitude towards Alluka… extrely cautious.
With the matter decided, Maha, whose eyes had been squinted, opened them slightly and suddenly said, "What ti is it now?"
Kikyo's electronic eye flickered, and she respectfully replied, "2:25:36 p.m."
"Hmm, Pig Peppa is about to start."
As he spoke, Maha stood up and walked towards the door.
Pig Peppa was the cartoon he was currently following, airing every day at 2:30 p.m.
Zeno and the others all stood up, faces serious, watching Maha leave the room.
…
In the world map, the Six Continents and Ten Regions are commonly used to describe the Mafia's sphere of influence.
Besides, there are terms like the Six Continents Three Associations and Six Continents Four Families. Among them, Six Continents Four Families describes the four most renowned assassin families.
Different from mainstream assassins, including the Zoldyck Family, these four assassin families are highly skilled and bold, never deliberately concealing their traces.
The four assassin families' bases are located on different continents. Though their activities span the world, when accepting commissions, they are basically limited to a rough regional range.
Only when the reward far outweighs the risk do they occasionally go to distant places.
One of these assassin families has its base in the southern mountainous region of the Azian Continent, and Kakin Empire is the largest country on the Azian Continent.
It's worth noting that the Azian Continent is the largest among the six continents and is not under V5's coordination.
This phenonon exists because nurous countries rose early on the Azian Continent. During the most brutal period, war raged every second.
Defeat, annexation, growth.
Like a cycle, it continued endlessly.
So since V5's establishnt, they haven't considered the Azian Continent's 'existence'. Kakin Country is a super-ancient country surviving from that era. Thirty years ago, it implented reforms, changing from imperialism to parliantary democracy, rapidly developing its economy and national power.
Although the royal family system remains, the royal family na has actually been removed from the citizens.
The assassin family located in the southern region of Kakin Empire is called Blackstone. Its operating model differs fundantally from the Zoldyck Family's.
The first distinction: the Blackstone Family's clan has branched out and proliferated… their population far exceeds the Zoldyck Family's.
Moreover, unlike the Zoldyck Family's model of training butlers through classes, the Blackstone Family has specialized personnel who frequently search for orphans in war zones and have close connections with human traffickers in various regions.
The gathered children are trained in batches into dead soldiers using a [Gu Poison] model.
This training model is largely influenced by each succession war in Kakin Empire.
Because each Kakin succession war is marked by cruelty. No matter how many princes there are, ultimately only one survives… even if among the many princes there are infants in swaddling clothes.
Regardless of threat level, this is Gu Poison… in the end, only the strongest individual survives.
Today, a telecommunication ssage was sent from the Blackstone Family's base, crossing oceans to the Yorbian Continent.
