Becoming the Supreme Will starting from Hunter x Hunter

However, seemingly realizing he had lost his composure, Killua, with his precocious demeanor, put on a serious face and spoke in a much more amiable tone, "Not bad... I suddenly find you much more agreeable."

Long's action made Ziponian, who was standing to the side, seem thoughtful.

Illumi tilted his head slightly, but said nothing.

Immediately afterwards, Long followed Illumi and Ziponian into the castle to see Shiba.

The castle has a large interior space... its structure is also very complex, and its decoration is quite classical.

Some of the corridors in certain areas appear quite gloomy…

After wandering around for a while, the two arrived at the main hall.

Long glanced back and realized that Zi Po Nian had disappeared sometime during the night…

Illumi opened the door and led him inside.

97. Exchange with X Nanica

Silva and Zeno.

Upon entering, Oboro saw Silva sitting on an animal skin and Zeno, an old man sprawled on a sofa to the side.

This was the first time Oboro had seen the two monsters from the Zoldyck family.

Both of them had very calm expressions.

Now that he's an ordinary person, he can't sense any terrifying aura or presence from the two of them.

Just like ordinary people.

His expression was rather cold.

"Sit down." Silva and the other man were also looking at Oboro, who was in extremely poor condition. The former gestured for him to sit.

Long nodded to Geno and sat down on the animal skin.

There were no lights in the room, only a burning fireplace and a miniature version of Sanmao lying next to Shiba.

Illumi, on the other hand, was standing...

Silva was still very polite... after all, he had received money from Oboro and was a guest.

"Hmm... I guess I really overdraw my energy..."

The moment Long's bottom touched the ground, the old man nearby said something.

They noticed Oboro's 'injury'.

"Yes."

Long smiled slightly.

"How did you know about that thing?" Suddenly, Silva stared at Oboro and asked the question.

His expression was indifferent, but his tone carried a hint of coldness.

He was referring to Nanica.

Moreover, what Silva wanted to ask was why Oboro knew about Nanica's rules!

The first person to know this secret was Killua... Even his family didn't realize it. Killua and Alluka kept it a secret from everyone.

Until a housekeeper named Mitsuha accidentally fulfilled Alluka's 'cute request' and saw Alluka's expression change... she was frightened. Later, Killua ran over and turned Alluka back to normal.

Subsequently, Killua's mother, Kikyo, used the housekeeper to test the 'rules' and found the answer: you cannot refuse four consecutive requests for affection, or you will die.

What truly made Silva realize that this child posed a threat to the family was that later, a housekeeper, driven by selfish motives, made a wish to Nanika to become a billionaire, and then, paper money began to fall from the sky like snowflakes...

This incident attracted some media coverage at the time.

Then, Silva locked Alluka in the basement.

It can be said that this was not only due to considerations for V5, but also because Nicaragua threatened the entire Zoldyck family.

That ability... has turned the Zoldyck family into a testing ground for humanity.

Subsequently, Illumi and Milluki also conducted some 'human experiments' on Nanika's abilities.

“I was fortunate enough to see a record of ‘it’ in a book once,” Oboro said softly.

This is the 'real reason' the Zoldyck family was willing to accept his deal.

Even now, the Zoldyck family hasn't figured out the rules of Nanika's abilities, only recognizing a certain degree of 'equivalent exchange'.

They need to know this 'danger' inside and out.

"What book?" Silva asked casually.

Grandpa Zeno's gaze remained fixed on Long's back.

Does it relate to the Dark Continent?

Perhaps there is…

"Oboro...you're lying."

Suddenly, Illumi, who had been standing with his hands on his hips, blinked, bent down, and looked Oboro in the eye. "You're doing something very dangerous, you should know that you could die at any moment..."

This matter is important for beating the enemy.

The importance of the Hakka people is immeasurable.

"..."

Long clicked his tongue.

She pouted and spread her hands. "Okay, I admit it, I lied!"

"I'm sorry, I don't want to talk about how I know. Anyway, as long as you understand the rules, that's enough... Is it necessary to care about anything else?" Long thought she had disguised herself very well, but she didn't expect that she would still break down in a second.

Even Illumi wasn't fooled, let alone Silva and Zeno.

This situation was within his expectations.

He harbored a bit of wishful thinking.

Of course, Illumi could tell... not because he had the keen eyesight and experience of Silva and Zeno.

"How much did Hisoka tell you?" Oboro glanced at Illumi with displeasure.

"Well... I've said everything I needed to say."

Illumi answered directly.

"..."

Long paused for a moment before speaking, “1. If you fulfill three of your wish-making requests, Nanika will appear and grant your wish, after which she will return to her normal state as Alluka. However, the bigger the wish, the greater the price the next person who makes the wish will have to pay… This mostly involves human organs and death warnings, and is a kind of ‘incremental’ cause-and-effect relationship.”

"2. If you are rejected four times in a row for your pleading request, both the person you pleaded with and their loved one will immediately die in a flat, twisted pretzel shape or their bodies will explode. If more than two people die, an additional rule will be added: the person who has been in contact with the person you pleaded with the longest will also die in turn! The bigger the previous wish, the more people will die after being rejected this time... However, the difficulty of pleading will be reset after this."

"3. When Alluka is being affectionate with someone, the object of her affection will not be transferred to someone else. She can remain in a state of not being affectionate with anyone else until the request for her affection is fulfilled... Moreover, the same person cannot make a wish to Nanika consecutively."

"You know Killua very well..."

After listening to Om's detailed and complete explanation of the rules, Silva and Zeno exchanged a glance; this was indeed what they knew.

Why Killua?

"Silba said calmly."

That's the key point...

As expected of the Zoldyck family... In the blink of an eye, both of them knew about my attitude towards Killua, including my actions of 'bribing' him with snacks, and they also noticed the problem.

Is it the Zipo year?

"You've probably noticed by now... Killua and Alluka have a very close relationship, including Nanika, who never hurts Killua. When Alluka plays games with Killua or even makes requests, she calls him 'brother' instead of his name... Nanika's ability cannot be used on people whose names she doesn't know."

“Nanica is discriminating…”

"You mean that thing has feelings?"

"Illumi asked from the side."

"That's understandable!"

"you sure?"

"determine."

"..."

Silva and the old man exchanged another glance.

"Regarding Killua's safety, you can rest assured. Although he was the one who made the wish... if there's a price to pay, Alluka and Nanika won't accept it. In other words, the rule of 'equivalent exchange' won't apply, and I've essentially made a wasted trip... Of course, money..."

"I will still pay." After thinking for a moment, Oboro decided to use his words to protect Killua and Alluka, but he couldn't completely fool the three of them.

He needs Shiba's approval to see Nanika if he wants to recover; otherwise, it's all for naught.

"You mean... Killua can ignore the rules and make a wish?"

Illumi's voice wavered, and a powerful pressure swept over him, making it difficult for Oboro to breathe.

"Illumi."

Silba glanced at his son and reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Illumi's emotions gradually calmed down.

"It's not absolute... I said, it has feelings and thoughts... It's just that at this age, within this specific timeframe, Killua is being treated specially... As for the future, no one can say for sure."

If Oboro were to say that Killua could control Nanika to make wishes with 100% certainty and without limit... then the white-haired boy's life would probably not be easy from now on.

Illumi's control over Killua will likely become even more pathological.

"Don't be too happy yet, it's only temporary. Besides, it's also possible that the rules won't hold up... and that my hopes will be dashed. You have to understand that Killua's specialness is only through 'this relationship'. Once the relationship disappears or fades, as Naniga grows and his sense of autonomy strengthens, the real power will still be in his hands."

After all the groundwork laid earlier, what Oboro said at this moment was highly credible.

Thinking about it carefully, it's true that Killua resolved all the 'wishing crises' the family experienced...

"Dad, what do you think?"

Silva looked at Zeno.
