Chapter 234: Cowardly Airplane! Cannot Match Up Against Luo Ge! (Please Subscribe)

~7 min read 1,255 words

"To be precise, I have come to spar."

Luo Ge added another sentence to ease the atmosphere.

"Then who do you wish to spar with?"

"I have come this time to find an~old senior."

Zeno and Silva exchanged a glance, then stepped forward and said:

"If that is the case, this old man happens to be free."

Luo Ge's gaze swept past indifferently.

"No, unfortunately, I am not looking for Zeno Killua."

Not me?

Zeno was stunned first.

Immediately, an impossible thought flashed through his mind!

"I am looking for... Miza Killua!"

When Luo Ge spoke that name, both of them finally showed expressions of surprise.

"How do you know his name?!"

Silva could not help but ask directly; in his view, Luo Ge should not know the name of his great-grandfather.

Only a handful of people in the Niteluo Society know Mahah's name and are still alive in the world today!

"You need not worry about this point; I know many things, and I even know some news more mysterious than this."

"It is simply that I am delighted by the hunt and wish to make friends through martial arts, to exchange a few moves with the old senior."

"I will pay; rest assured on that point."

After all, fighting someone directly is somewhat improper, making oneself look as if one is deliberately causing trouble.

"Besides that, I also wish to stay as a guest here for a few days and conduct another business on the side."

"Oh? What is it?"

"I have heard that the Killua family raises dragon-type monster beasts; I wonder if there is any willingness to sell them; I can pay to buy them."

His goals for coming this time were not many; strictly speaking, there were only three.

First, defeat Ma Zuo Ke.

Second, activate Nen abilities here to see if he can obtain anything good or encounter a Pokémon.

Third, use money to buy some "local specialties" of the Killua family.

Coincidentally, all three objectives can be achieved by spending money.

And now, for him, matters that can be accomplished simply by spending money are extremely simple.

"Putting other things aside for now, we cannot yet make a decision regarding the request to spar with your great-grandfather."

"We need to ask him first, to see his opinion; if he is unwilling, then let us not mention this matter again."

Zeno departed, while Silva remained in the hall to converse with Luo Ge.

After pondering for a moment, Silva slowly said: "I have heard that Mr. Luo Ge is also a Nen Exorcist."

"You once accomplished the feat of clearing an entire Dorok ruins site in a short time?"

"That is true."

Luo Ge nodded, with no evasion.

Silva could not help but sigh: "Truly impressive~ I have also met a few Nen Exorcists, but none have ever been as powerful as you."

"Possessing Nen Exorcism abilities is truly wonderful..."

Silva suddenly said this, and there was actually a reason for it.

Because his fourth child, Alluka Killua,

is actually a monster!

Under normal circumstances, he is an ordinary person, called Alluka.

Under certain circumstances, a creature suspected to be from the Dark Continent appears, called Nanika.

The two exist in a symbiotic state.

There are traces leading to this happening.

An elder of their family—Zezek Killua—once traveled together with the Niteluo Society President to the Dark Continent,

and although he returned successfully, perhaps he also contracted something, causing an impact on the birth of his descendants.

Although their family has also sought many methods for this, Nen Exorcists were naturally not lacking, but unfortunately, all were powerless.

Finally, they had no choice but to lock Alluka in a specially made room, and normally no one was allowed to contact him.

He had also heard of Luo Ge's fame; perhaps he could take this opportunity to ask for help?

But what should be proposed as compensation would be appropriate?

Money?

Forget it.

Who does not know that the Gro Company is the number one company on the six continents, generating countless profits every day?

How could Luo Ge possibly lack money?

Sell a personal favor?

In the future, whenever Luo Ge has a need, they would kill for free?

Hmm...

No one spoke, and silence fell over the hall.

Not long after, Zeno walked in from the doorway, not raising a single footstep, like a ghost.

Luo Ge's gaze flickered slightly.

Something could be discerned from such details.

The Zoldyck family's reputation as the "Number One Assassin Family" was no empty boast; even this single technique of silent steps held considerable depth.

With his hands clasped behind his back, Zeno walked into the hall like an old man taking a stroll.

"He agreed."

Mahal Zoldyck's appearance was rather peculiar.

His stature was as small as a child's, and he topped it with a bald head.

He wore the same unchanging, plain tracksuit and shorts, with a pair of worn-out flip-flops on his feet.

If not for the wrinkles on his face that symbolized old age, others might have mistaken him for a child.

If one were to tell others that this was a world-class supreme expert, few would believe it.

Who could have imagined that a world-class supreme expert was an old man who liked to stay in his room all day watching cartoons?

In the dim room, only the television playing cartoons provided light, illuminating the faces of the two.

"I learned it from Zeno."

"You want to spar with me?"

Mahal slowly turned his head, looking at Luo Ge, whose expression was calm and showed not the slightest trace of tension.

"That's right. I came this time specifically to challenge an old senior and test my own level."

He naturally could not reveal the truth.

"Old geezer, just be honest and let me beat you up so you can drop some 【Secret Seasoning】 for me."

He couldn't possibly say that, could he?

Mahal's head shape was somewhat flat; standing in the shadows, he gave off the feeling of a venomous snake. His narrow eyes squinted slightly as he sized up Luo Ge.

【The champion of that Wu Dou Assembly...】

【With that kind of strength, challenging me isn't arrogance; he's a very capable junior.】

Mahal had watched that final match back then, so he knew Luo Ge.

His agreement to Zeno's report just now was also due to this.

"Interesting..."

"I didn't expect that at my age, someone would still come to challenge this old bone."

"If that guy Netero were here, he would probably be very happy."

"Let's go, young man."

"Let me say this beforehand: my fee isn't cheap."

His hoarse voice echoed.

Mahal casually turned off the cartoon playing on the television, put his hands in his pockets, and led Luo Ge out.

The two arrived in the courtyard of the Zoldyck family.

It was called a courtyard, but considering the Zoldyck family's terrifyingly vast land area, the courtyard itself was frighteningly large.

In fact, the Zoldyck family had a dedicated training ground.

But Mahal estimated that the usual training ground would absolutely not be enough for them to unleash their full power.

Fortunately, the Zoldyck family's territory was extremely vast, even designating a large area of Kikyo Mountain as part of their family domain.

Standing at a high point and looking down, one could see nothing but the Zoldyck family's territory at a glance.

Fighting in the courtyard would at most damage some terrain, flowers, and trees; repairing them later wouldn't cost much money.
