Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Dia had no intention of arguing, because having read the original work, he was very clear about Killua's personality.

The only profession he definitely couldn't stick with was assassination.

After forking a piece of fish from the table and savoring it, Dia nodded approvingly. The Zoldyck family's chefs were indeed better than the chefs in the association's cafeteria.

In fact, he was the only one in the entire reception room who still had the appetite to eat.

"Next is the second thing. I plan to hire a Zoldyck assassin to go with me to kill someone."

Diya swallowed the food in her mouth and casually uttered another sentence.

As these words were spoken, a barely perceptible scent of blood seemed to spread. Silva narrowed his eyes and asked:

"With your abilities, you still need to hire assassins?"

"Who to kill?"

Swish!

As soon as Silva finished speaking, a business card was swiped from the table in front of Dia and placed in front of Silva.

When he picked it up, there was only one name on it—

Pariston Hill.

'An unfamiliar name...'

Silva took out his phone and ordered the head of the Zoldyck family's intelligence network to search for the name "Pariston Hill".

Soon, a document was packaged and sent to Silba's phone, and Silba read it silently.

'Hunter Association [Zodiac], 3-star hunter, international relations hunter, psychologist, no records of any actions found, past is completely blank...'

Upon seeing this document, Silva couldn't help but frown.

The intelligence is too scarce; even their intelligence network can only find this much information. This man named Pariston is definitely not simple.

The fact that there is "a blank past" alone indicates that there is definitely some kind of political force behind the other party.

This also aligns with the identity of the target international relations hunter.

But in that case, it becomes very difficult to assess its value...

As Silva fell into deep thought, the atmosphere in the reception room became heavy once again, with only the sound of Dia eating heartily audible.

Yama-on, who had been observing from the beginning to the end, was almost dizzy from being bombarded with a series of huge pieces of information. Only now did she finally breathe a sigh of relief and look at Diya, who was chewing heartily.

'He's a Hunter, and he wants Killua to become a Hunter too…'

As the Zoldyck family's butler, Yamane should have been furious with Dia for making such a remark.

But when it comes to Killua, her mindset is completely different:

'If it were really possible, Killua could do whatever he wants.'

Yamain, who grew up listening to Zivanian's teachings, knew what kind of child Killua was from Zivanian's kind descriptions, even though she had never formally met him.

Bearing the hopes of the entire family, Killua carries his father's high expectations, his eldest brother's obsession, his second brother's approval (in terms of strength), the admiration of his two younger brothers, his mother's doting love, and the support of the gatekeeper, two generations of stewards, and most of the butlers.

It can be said that Killua is the absolute core of the Zoldyck team right now.

But precisely because of this, young butlers like Yama-on and Goto don't want him to be bound by the family.

Their admiration for Killua himself even surpassed their loyalty to the Zoldyck family.

At this moment, Yamane desperately hoped that Dia could really leave the Zoldyck family with Killua; she even began to pray.

'Let Killua truly gain his freedom...'

No one knows anything about Yama's rich inner life.

Dia simply waited quietly for Silva's reply.

Soon, after a moment of contemplation, Silva raised his eyes and said:

“I’ve accepted this task, but we won’t set a total price yet. If the task fails, I will refund the deposit.”

The pricing of a task cannot be set arbitrarily without careful consideration. It requires ensuring that the value of the task objective does not exceed the reward received, otherwise it will result in a loss.

Zoldyck never makes a losing deal.

So Silba decided to break with the old practice of setting a price before killing someone, and instead complete the task first, then determine the final reward based on the difficulty of the task.

This was obviously not good for Dia, so Silba countered by offering a refund of the deposit if the deal failed.

It's important to know that the Zoldyck family never refunds deposits once they've received them, regardless of the mission's outcome.

This time, however, he broke the rules for Dia.

However, since he arrived at Kukuroku Mountain, such exceptions have happened more than once, so one more or one less time doesn't matter much.

"So, how much is the deposit?"

Dia was somewhat surprised by Silva's answer, and couldn't help but ask after hearing it.

It's not polite to only say half of what you mean.

"A deposit of one billion yuan is required, and any payment method is supported."

Based on the previous mission standards, Silva gave a number, a number that an ordinary person could never earn in a lifetime.

'Hmm... For a powerhouse like Silva to intervene, the price isn't expensive; in fact, it's quite cost-effective. But the only problem is...'

Dia calculated her assets, and they totaled less than 500 million ni, still far short.

'I should have gone to the Sky Arena and made a fortune first before coming here.'

Dia was a bit stumped. He had never been to the Sky Arena before because he thought it was troublesome and useless.

In fact, the Sky Arena is also located in the Republic of Mingbo, only half a day's airship distance from Roy City, where he has always been stationed.

But going to such a place wouldn't mean much to him. He could hone his skills by sparring with the bored guild leader, and he could ask Qi Duo for advice on developing his abilities.

Even with money, he always believed that enough was enough and was too lazy to make money.

But now the problem is that there aren't enough.

'There's no other way but to use our trump card!'

What if you don't have money? Just borrow some!

Dia took out her phone, thought for a moment, and decided to dial the number of the wealthy woman, Qiduo.

Dudu ludu—

The phone rang; someone was calling.

The name that had called suddenly lit up on the phone; it was none other than Qiduo, the very name that Dia had just wanted to call!

Chapter 183 You Will Surely Succeed (Master, please excuse my poor skills)

Ha! What great teamwork!

Whenever I'm short of money, Qiduo calls me!

Diya smiled nonchalantly, answered the phone, and said:

"Hello, teacher, it's me..."

"Dia!! Why are you going to see my mom now?!"

Qiduo's roar erupted instantly, and Dia's smile froze.

"Well!"

Killua abruptly looked up, forcing a straight expression on his face, and stared at the ceiling:

'Hold back your laughter, or that guy will beat you up!'

A fierce battle between his will to survive and a desire to laugh raged in his mind, about to determine a life-or-death struggle.

As a seasoned artist, Silva, seated in the main seat, possessed remarkable composure and showed no desire to investigate further.

He simply glanced silently at Killua, who was trying not to laugh, a look of worry in his eyes:

'Killua...did we suppress him too much before...?'

On the other end of the phone, Kido almost fainted from anger at Dia's running around everywhere.

She took several deep breaths to calm herself down, suppressing the urge to rush over and beat up her traitorous disciple, and said:

"You'd better give me a proper explanation for why you didn't prepare for the election properly and instead went to see my mother!"

Dia broke out in a cold sweat; he seemed to have forgotten to discuss the itinerary with Qiduo again, so he quickly said:

"No, Ms. Qiduo, I've really been preparing for the election. I've already found a collaborator."

As she spoke, Dia casually flicked out a small Nen bullet, which struck Killua, who was trying to suppress his laughter, on the forehead. The bullet exploded and knocked him to the ground.

That white-haired brat disrespects his teachers and elders; he deserves a beating!

After disciplining the white-haired brat, Dia automatically ignored the fact that he himself hadn't shown much respect to his teacher, and continued:

"The other party is asking for a bit too much money, so teacher, could you lend me some money first?"

"how much is it?"

Upon hearing Dia ask for money, Qiduo instinctively picked up another phone, ready to transfer the funds.

"Hmm... Ten billion jini."

After thinking for a moment, Dia simply relayed all the numbers that Silba had reported.

Since we're already borrowing money, we might as well borrow more.

Upon hearing this number, Yamao glanced at Dia silently, her expression gradually turning strange.

'What is he doing...'

The image of Dia in her eyes gradually shifted from a mysterious and powerful hunter towards a rather impolite term.

ding dong~

Not long after Diya finished reciting the numbers, her phone beeped with a transfer notification.
