The Daily Life of Saiki Kusuo in Zoldyck

What was that sound? Kusuo Saiki's smile vanished abruptly.

At that moment, Kusuo Saiki was sitting on a park bench eating dorayaki when the sound came from the bushes behind him.

Illumi leaned against a tree, while Hisoka crouched in the grass; from their higher vantage point, they couldn't see any dark creatures.

“With the artificial scoring system for dark creatures, it’s actually easier to identify people and NPCs.” Illumi ignored Hisoka’s complaints. “I must have something to tell you. Do you know about the arena?”

"Hmm~ I've heard about it recently, but I don't know the specifics. Anyway, it can be used for fighting, right?"

"There are also requirements for fighting."

Kusuo Saiki lowered his head, praying that they couldn't see him.

There were no dark creatures around him to keep track of scores, which might be related to his identity as the true form of the leader of those dark creatures, so there was no need for him to be scored.

Illumi probably didn't notice him because of this.

Illumi introduced in a cool voice: "I will just talk about a few important rules."

First, you need to get tickets from the teachers to participate in the competition. Tickets cannot be bought, sold, or stolen. The more people there are, the better. Don't waste your time trying to steal them.

Second, in competitive matches, the winner receives points from the loser, but the point value is the lower of the two players' scores. In other words, if I have 10 points and you only have 1 point, and you win, I only get 1 point.

Third, the principal and the three guards will all participate in the competition.

Hisoka perked up: "The headmaster and the three royal guards? That headmaster's aura is quite captivating..."

"Well, you probably can't beat Hisoka. Don't forget these are dark creatures, but the Royal Guard should be a level you can challenge."

"Hehehe~ I know, I've smelled their scent before..."

Is Hisoka born in the Year of the Dog?

"I'm so excited, I feel like there are fruits right next to me," Hisoka said.

Is Hisoka born in the Year of the Dog?

"Really? Where is it?" Illumi was about to look around.

“Little Yi…”

"I'm pointing at you with both hands."

"Oh, no, I won't fight."

Kusuo Saiki's face darkened; these two were playing a trick on him.

Illumi said, "The arena's battle mode is still unknown. If possible, I'll help you have a one-on-one duel with Chrollo right now."

Kusuo Saiki remembered the plan that Illumi had made with Hisoka, which he had overheard earlier.

Is the Great Battle of Danshi coming soon, and it's happening in the arena again? Plus, Kuroro's current abilities have revealed several that overlap with those in the manga.

Will it happen? The exact same scenario. Although I warned him before not to take the abilities of the group members, he'll probably just take them indiscriminately when he really needs them.

It was a truly chaotic scene, a deadly fight that took the audience and referees hostage.

"The competition in the arena will be fierce, like a pyramid. After layers of trials, we will definitely be among those who stand at the top..."

During their discussion, Kusuo Saiki finished his ice cream dorayaki and slowly walked away.

Illumi, leaning against the tree trunk in a different direction, didn't notice. Hisoka, however, shifted his gaze, staring at the empty area except for the car, and licked his lips.

Even though there's no one around, I always feel like something is attracting me.

"Xiao Yi, I heard there are ghost stories circulating at school. Will we get tickets if we investigate them?"

"The only thing we know for sure right now is that helping teachers or completing coursework and making special contributions to the school may earn you a ticket."

"Hehehe~ Can I have a secret rendezvous with you tonight?"

Are you afraid of the dark?

"The results of their investigation won't just earn them one reward, will they?"

"Student council members can get tickets directly."

When Saiki Kusuo ran into Illumi Hisoka in the university area and learned that the Phantom Troupe skipped classes, he suddenly felt that the university area was dangerous.

So he crossed the bridge and headed towards the high school section, where the people were weaker and it was safer.

Instead of heading towards the teaching building, he walked towards the stadium. The stadium was quiet, and he assumed no one was around. As Saiki Kusuo walked under the shade of the trees along the main road, he was suddenly pulled into the bushes from behind by a ninja!

I knew ninjas existed in this world! The world is full of dangers, and everyone, no matter where they are, should remain highly vigilant!

"Shh!! Brother Nanxiong, how dare you walk on the main road!"

He's mistaken; he's not a ninja, he's my younger brother.

But why can't we walk on the main road? Roads are built for people to walk on, right? Have we already seen bandit NPCs who rob people on the road after just three days of not attending class?

"The scoring monster will hover above everyone's highest level. No matter how well you hide, that little thing will reveal itself first! We guess we'll have to crawl forward!"

However, who are you hiding from?

Killua took out the cassette tape from his pocket: "Today, all the humans in the high school are here. The leader of that Phantom Troupe actually kicked all the dark creatures out of this game."

Oh, I see. It's class time now. Killua, are you skipping class to avoid the PE teacher? If that guy is the teacher, then it makes sense.

"The top three teams that grab the most tapes will get three tickets. Someone as good as me should try to participate in the arena and contribute to Kurapika's victory!" Killua said.

What kind of things does Kuroro teach in class? Don't teach us Zoldycks to rob people!

"Bulky-eyed fish, bring the tape over here."

Suddenly, the cassette tape in Killua's hand was pulled by an immense force! Killua immediately assumed a horse stance to protect the tape! Kusuo Saiki also instinctively stopped Killua.

Looking up, I saw Xiao Di walking on the main road, holding a bulging-eyed fish that looked like a vacuum cleaner, sucking up every blade of grass.

What a brutal method! This game, Chrollo, was probably just prepared for Shizuku to get her a ticket, what a blatant conspiracy!

Chapter 183 Busy

"Huh? You're back." When Shizuku saw that it was Saiki Kusuo, she stopped using the bulging-eye fish.

"Huh? Why did you stop?" Killua asked.

What's wrong? Are you looking forward to a fight, Killua?

"Because Illumi and the Zoldyck are members of the guild, the leader said to let the Zoldyck members go," Shizuku answered honestly.

"You weren't planning to let me off the hook just now, were you!"

Because of his partnership with Illumi, but unfortunately Illumi was just thinking about how to frame Chrollo.

Everyone was given a cassette tape, but Kusuo Saiki didn't have one, and he walked confidently out of the students' final round.

"Use the money to buy assets. Acquisitions and collaborations are all conducted through contracts. This time, we will abide by the contract terms."

"Let's use money to boost our rankings. Hmm, we shouldn't miss out on points. If we want to surpass the principal in the final score, we need to snowball our efforts."

It turns out the tour group was behind the real estate scam.

Kusuo Saiki crossed his arms, respecting the fate of others. After all, no dark creature would jump off a building, and even if they did, they wouldn't die.

This might be one of the strategies for winning the game, even though it's a bit unethical.

Kuroro hung up the phone. At that time, he had his hair slicked back, was wearing a white tank top and athletic shorts, and looked somewhat like a physical education teacher.

He was clearly still thinking about something, occasionally typing something on his phone.

"Hmm? Long time no see. How have you been doing at the infirmary?"

They left the infirmary eight hundred years ago.

Surprisingly, cell phones still work here.

"The makeshift signal tower built by the knight-errant still doesn't have enough range," Kuroro muttered to himself.

Your group's practical skills are a bit too exaggerated.

"The signal was fine just now, but suddenly it felt like it was blocked."

It's as if I caused it.

Kusuo Saiki covered his ears.

Kuroro glanced at the time and picked up the whistle hanging around his neck.

"beep--!"

When the assembly whistle was sounded, many people rushed out of their hiding places, and Kusuo Saiki realized that there were so many people around.

"Teacher! I have eight cassette tapes!"

"Commander, I took twelve."

"Two of them were just snatched from me! Teacher, you can't snatch them after the whistle blows!!"

It's so lively. Saiki Kusuo silently retreated to a corner, wanting to leave quietly.

"Brother! You're all better now!"

I almost crashed into a 1.8-meter-high wall.

It's all better now, don't worry unnecessarily.

"Brother, it's been so long!" Alluka hugged Saiki Kusuo tightly.

Okay, I can't live without it anymore.

Ahead, Kuroro tapped the lever twice, signaling everyone to keep quiet: "I've roughly checked the number of tapes. The three teams with the most tapes are Shizuku, Killua's Zoldyck team, and that other team. Each team can get a maximum of three. Come up and collect them."

That team was just a random team, and because they were random, I didn't even remember their names? How can this person be a teacher?

"Tomorrow is the start of the arena competition. I will randomly give out tickets to five more people. I hope you... Wait a minute, I need to take this call."

The crowd below shouted: "Give us the tickets first!!"

Alluka asked, "Brother, do you know why the PE teacher gives out so many tickets?"

I don't know why?

Kusuo Saiki waited a moment and then noticed that his younger brothers were looking at him.

It turned out he was being asked to answer. He had no idea what the Phantom Troupe was thinking, but according to the rules Illumi had told him before, the more people the better, so that they could get higher scores in each round of the competition.
