After a moment, a series of gates were opened... Killua skillfully led Oboro into a sealed basement.
Alluka, dressed as a little girl, was sitting obediently in the middle of a pile of stuffed toys. Although she had a smile on her face, it gave people a feeling of loneliness.
"Brother!"
Upon seeing Killua, Alluka immediately stood up happily, and threw herself into Killua's arms.
Killua also smiled...
Enjoying the warmth of this brother-sister relationship...
Regarding Alluka's gender, some said she was a boy, some said she was a girl, and some said she was physiologically male, but psychologically female.
But Oboro understood it the moment he saw Alluka... Because of her uniqueness, Oboro was more willing to believe that she was 'soul bi-gender'.
This could be seen from the fact that in later years, when Killua took Alluka out, he used different terms to introduce Alluka when facing different people.
Of course, her body should be male.
As for Nanika, who was inside her, she was a girl...
"Hmm... Brother, it's been a long time since you've come to see me." Alluka rubbed against Killua's chest, and said cheerfully.
As for Oboro behind them, he was directly ignored.
Alluka probably thought of him as a servant in the house...
After all, although this basement was sealed off, butlers and servants would come every day to provide him with meals and toys.
Oboro walked to the side, not disturbing the communication between the two children.
Killua kept playing with Alluka... It could be seen that their relationship was really good.
Alluka even had a very strong sense of dependence on Killua.
Then, the two started playing some games. Alluka seemed to be making some requests to Killua, such as wanting one of Killua's eyes, or ears, etc. It was frightening to hear, but in reality... The prefix was always brother. She didn't call Killua by his name.
Moreover, Killua had also fooled her with some tricks.
Killua also gave the gifts that Oboro had brought to Alluka.
Seeing that it was about time... Killua suddenly leaned over, and whispered a few words in his sister's ear.
Silva didn't give Killua and Oboro much time...
Killua's sudden actions also made the family members in the surveillance room, who were watching the scene, change their expressions slightly.
Because... They couldn't hear what Killua had said to Alluka.
Killua had done it on purpose...
Illumi's gaze immediately fell on Oboro, who was silently standing in the screen. He looked at his father, "Hmm... It must be Oboro's doing. He did something to Killua... Seeing it this way, what he said about the rules is probably incomplete. Killua and he are both hiding something."
"The hidden part is the key!"
"Why are we helping him?" Milluki, the second fat son, who was sitting in front of the console, frowned.
He stared at Oboro's expression, and felt very unhappy.
This wasn't just about money. He didn't understand his father and grandfather's thoughts...
However, Silva, who had his arms crossed and had been watching calmly, didn't mean to explain.
Even if he explained it, this son wouldn't understand with his foolish thinking.
...
On the other side, in the basement.
After Killua whispered to Alluka, the little girl suddenly giggled.
It was as if her brother had told her an interesting joke...
Immediately after, after communicating for another minute or two, without any warning... The atmosphere in the room and the images presented in the surveillance changed strangely.
The 'black' that the Zoldyck Family was familiar with appeared...
Black and white.
Black was Nanika.
White was Alluka.
Alluka's entire body released an unspeakable aura. Her face was as if it had lost blood, becoming dim and gloomy... The opened pupils didn't seem to be the fleshy substance of the eyeballs. It wasn't the kind that simply didn't have any whites...
The Dark Continent!
On that continent, the existence of all life forms far exceeded human cognition and understanding.
It could be said that they had their own logic that had existed in the world for a long time.
Compared to the disasters that Oboro knew, although Nanika was also terrifying... The fact that she had feelings could be regarded as 'the only kindness that came from the Dark Continent'.
Killua whispered something mysterious in Alluka's ear again.
Then, they saw the little girl get up, walk toward Oboro, and hold out her little hand.
As she got closer, even though he had been mentally prepared in advance, Oboro still felt a bit creeped out, and broke out in goosebumps.
But he still calmly held out his hand, and let Nanika touch it.
Then, a dazzling light burst out between the two, reflecting the entire room in a snow-white color.
In the surveillance room, Silva and the others couldn't see anything at all.
But their expressions all changed.
Even though they were extremely far away, they could feel an unknown energy surging out from the basement of the castle... It was extremely vast and immense.
It was something that they had never seen before.
The people of the Zoldyck Family were analyzing... They were thinking about the reason.
And this was precisely the difference caused by the different rules of destruction and healing.
For Oboro, he felt an extremely pure energy, pouring over his entire body like a sweet rain...
It was very similar to the healing of the summoner skill in his Nen ability, but the strength and effect were stronger, perhaps hundreds or thousands of times stronger!
It was an inhuman method that violated common sense!
The feeling of weakness on his body was like a thin veil that was being taken off... His withered flesh regained its vitality, and that full and real sense of power... Was back!
Wonderful... Ineffably wonderful!
"Hahahahahaha!"
Oboro laughed.
He had succeeded!
The light dissipated, Nanika 'disappeared', and the basement returned to its original state.
The only difference was that Oboro had thrown away the cane that he had been using all along...
His entire face was radiant, and his body was strong.
His shriveled arms and lower limbs swelled up again, forming perfect body curves. The originally loose robe was also propped up.
In the surveillance room, Illumi, who witnessed this scene, had a rare change in expression.
The corners of his mouth split open, his eyes widened, and his face and expression were a bit distorted. It was a sinister and excited state, which was very terrifying.
If Silva hadn't been present, he might have rushed to the basement at the first possible moment.
The potato chips that Milluki hadn't finished eating spilled all over the floor.
This was the first time that the family had seen that Nanika's ability could heal.
And it was used to heal this almost irreversible 'injury'!
It was too incredible!
On the other side, Alluka returned to normal, and her body staggered. She was about to fall, but Killua caught her.
The girl seemed a bit tired, and fell asleep.
Oboro looked at the Nen aura that was floating up on his hands again, and his smile didn't diminish.
"I've recovered to about 70-80% of my previous level. I might need to do some training later to fully recover. My Nen ability was ruined by myself, so I need to develop it again..."
There was no strangeness or rejection. The power that had returned to his body blended with him perfectly, allowing Oboro to instantly judge his current state.
Thoughts flashed through his mind.
"That's enough. She needs to rest."
Killua glanced at the 'successful' man, and seemed to suddenly feel a bit sorry for his sister. It seemed that agreeing with his family wasn't a wise decision.
He regretted it a bit... But it was useless to regret it now.
Oboro didn't say much, and left first.
Just now, on the way here, Oboro had secretly gestured two words to Killua, command.
Killua was also very smart... After seeing it, he understood what he meant, and didn't make a sound.
Locking Alluka up had at least made Killua, at this age, understand something about his family's attitude toward Alluka.
If all of this was done by Killua commanding Nanika to complete it, it would be ruined...
These people of the Zoldyck Family would probably be able to see through the truth in an instant.
Therefore, how Nanika appeared, how she appeared, and what kind of 'exchange' was carried out with Killua, all had to be concealed.
This would definitely arouse the Zoldyck Family's vigilance and thinking... But as long as Killua didn't say anything, it would be fine.
The Zoldyck Family had their own rules.
Let them guess, let them think... Delaying the time. Anyway, it wouldn't be long.
Killua was still very smart... However, after this incident, the white-haired kid seemed to dislike Oboro a bit.
Killua could see that... Nanika's condition was different from before.
After leaving the basement, they walked on the way back.
Killua had his hands in his pockets, and kept a cold face.
"Thank you."
