Chapter 1114

~8 min read 1,457 words

In this way, things were simple. Su Xiao could fight Maha Zoldyck to a draw, so in Maha's heart, Su Xiao was qualified to be on an equal footing with him. The two were communicating, not ordering, testing each other, using each other, and finally reaching a discussion.

With this foundation, was it difficult to trigger the hidden quest? The answer was not difficult, or rather, the second way to trigger the hidden quest was to have a fight with Maha, with strength reaching the level where Maha recognized but wouldn't fear.

Being strong enough brought benefits in all aspects, not to mention negotiating with an assassin family like the Zoldyck family. Don't forget, Silva poisoned Su Xiao's food at the beginning. That was gambling on probability. If Su Xiao confidently ate those foods, it would be an unexpected joy for Silva.

Negotiating with this kind of family, if you weren't strong enough, you would need high Charm attributes. With Su Xiao's 8 Charm attributes, he would only be poisoned in the food. This was such a "warm" way of welcoming.

With an opportunity to get a large amount of benefits, Su Xiao and Maha temporarily reached a cooperative relationship. Now they were just waiting for someone to come back, or rather, waiting for that person to be caught back.

The commission was completed, and cooperation was reached. Maha Zoldyck was in a good mood. A smile appeared on that old face full of wrinkles, successfully interpreting what it meant to cry uglier than laughing.

Although Maha Zoldyck called Alluka Zoldyck a freak, Maha didn't want to eliminate the other party, nor did he want to eliminate the other existence in Alluka's body, Nanika, but to cut off some kind of connection.

It was worth mentioning that the fourth son of the Zoldyck family, Alluka Zoldyck, was very interesting.

In all the family photos of the Zoldyck family, there was no figure of Alluka. The reason was simple: whether it was Maha, or Zeno, or Silva, they all thought Alluka was an ominous thing, darkness.

Saying this was a bit one-sided. Actually, Zeno and Silva weren't disgusted with Alluka, and even had some care for their descendants. Although they locked Alluka up, they would satisfy most of Alluka's requests, such as providing toys, exquisite food, etc.

What they truly loathed was the other thing in Alluka's body, that is, Nanika.

Ultimately, Alluka was just a special little child, only 12 years old. The only special point was that he wore women's clothes and dressed the same as a little girl.

The reason Alluka was like this wasn't a personal hobby. The cross-dressing little boy Kalluto wearing women's clothes was a hobby, and it was to satisfy some expectation of his mother. Kikyo gave birth to four sons, so it was hard not to expect a daughter. Therefore, the cross-dressing big shot Kalluto appeared, and Kikyo forcibly obtained a "daughter." This was the style of the daughter-in-law of the Zoldyck family.

Alluka's feminine dress was because the Nanika in his body was female.

Nanika, some kind of thing from the Dark Continent. From Maha's words, it could be heard that this was something Maha brought back from the Dark Continent after his resurrection, and it appeared directly in Alluka's body through inheritance.

Nanika's abilities were two. One was to satisfy her three requests, and she would complete the other party's wish, commonly known as wishing. But wishing had huge sequelae and risks, and the things obtained from wishing to Nanika didn't appear out of thin air, but were "sent" to the wisher in various ways. It wasn't the same way as the Holy Grail of the Holy Grail world.

This kind of wishing wasn't an omnipotent wish machine, and the side effects would be very exaggerated. When satisfying Nanika's requests, according to the difficulty of the wish, Nanika would ask for corresponding "items," such as the wisher's organs, limbs, or even the brain. These were all possible.

If you couldn't satisfy Nanika's requests four times in a row, Nanika would be very unhappy, and might even cry. The wisher would be twisted into a "twist" by a strange ability. This was the best result. A more serious result was that people related to the wisher would be twisted into "twists" and die on the spot.

This was Nanika's first ability. The second was healing—healing some seemingly impossible-to-heal damage or lifting certain powerful negative effects.

Compared to healing, Nanika was better at destruction. The Zoldyck family had suffered a bloody lesson.

As for what Nanika was, Maha didn't explain for the time being, and Su Xiao wasn't curious about this point. From the current situation, Nanika posed no threat to him, and might even become a friendly force.

Of course, expecting Nanika to fight wasn't very likely. Her destructive power was only aimed at those wishers, and Nanika wasn't omnipotent. There were many things she couldn't do.

A more important point was that Maha had clearly stated before that Nanika would be very afraid when entering Kukuroo Mountain, so afraid that she would tremble and hide in Alluka's body.

Su Xiao and Maha returned to the Zoldyck family's castle. Other members of the Zoldyck family had already started doing their own things. As soon as Maha returned to the castle, he summoned Zeno, Silva, and Illumi.

In the conference hall of the castle, Maha sat in the main seat, while Su Xiao sat on the side, legs on the conference table, taking a nap. He had consumed some stamina fighting Maha before.

Soon, Zeno and others arrived. Seeing Su Xiao's sitting posture and Maha's expression, the three generations of grandfather and grandson were all stunned. In their impression, Maha Zoldyck was an old-fashioned person.

"Byakuya, everyone is here."

"Oh."

Su Xiao yawned and took his legs off the conference table.

"There is an important matter for calling you here this time. Silva, Illumi, you two father and son go bring Killua back."

"This..."

Silva was a bit hesitant. He had promised Killua before.

"This matter concerns the survival of the family. You two father and son have no right to refuse. Bring him back within two days. That's it."

"Yes."

Silva and Illumi could only agree. Some things, they had no right to refuse. Silva didn't want to bring Killua back because he had promised Killua to let him do what he wanted. Illumi, this brother-complex, was happy to bring Killua back.

Zeno heard that the situation was a bit wrong, and after his brain turned rapidly, he suddenly thought of something.

"Could it be that matter?"

Zeno knew that Maha was depriving his relatives of their lifespan to live, but he had no resistance, because that kind of deprivation wasn't led by Maha. Maha was also a victim, the biggest victim.

"That's right."

"I will also enter the interior of Kukuroo Mountain together."

Zeno clenched his fists. He also hoped to lift the curse of the Zoldyck family's short life.

"No."

Maha refused quite simply.

"Byakuya and I can save at most one person each. The two spots are full. Do you want to go to your death, or do you want to drag us down?"

Maha taught Zeno, this old man, like teaching a grandson. It seemed Zeno was really Maha's grandson.

"If Netero were willing to come, the grasp would be greater. Unfortunately."

Maha sighed. He had invited Netero many times, but the other party refused.

"By the way, this time entering Kukuroo Mountain, they two will also go together."

Su Xiao pointed to Amu behind him, and Xiang Bubu Wang eating ice cream on the sofa not far away.

"This is no problem?"

Maha didn't know the details of Xiang Bubu and Amu.

"Of course. If Xiang Bubu and Amu are both going to die inside, we won't be able to come out either."

Su Xiao's firm attitude made Maha not say anything more.

The team members were determined. Now they were just waiting for Killua to be dragged back. With the efficiency of Silva and Illumi, the time wouldn't be long.

When Maha proposed to bring Killua back, Su Xiao suspected whether the two father and son would also drag back the other little brat. Those two little brats had always helped each other, the kind that didn't care about life or death.

Fortunately, the two destiny children of the Hunter World weren't righteous little partners. Although one was hot-blooded and straightforward, he was calm in dealing with things and knew how to judge the situation. He wouldn't explode when encountering an enemy he couldn't defeat, but would turn and flee, or directly "blacken." The other was easier to handle—that was a little assassin.
