Chapter 110: Meeting

.......

Though a disappointing look surfaced on his face a second later, "It's too bad we're not the one who finished the quest.

I think that's what dad planned for me... for me to have fun with a challenge... Just like Razor said, Dad told him not to go easy on me but now it doesn't matter since we won't face him anyway."

Killua suggested, "Well, if you really want to, we can just despawn the card and finish the quest ourselves."

The young hunter's eyes shined hearing that, "Really? are you okay with that?!!"

Killua smiled nodding, "Yeah, I don't mind we just have to convince him to give us the card so let's go!"

And so the two young hunters returned back to Greed Island looking for the third card they don't have and it wasn't hard for them to do so with the support of Tsezguerra until Biscuit came back.

And the moment she did is the moment she called for a meeting with the two kids, "Listen to me attentively, I will give you all the information I have and my opinion then you can do whatever you want... but I want you to take my opinion into consideration."

Gon and Killua both noticed her solemn demeanor, something they never saw before so they paid their complete attention to her every word knowing it's something important.

Biscuit nodded noticing she got their attention then started explaining, "Killua... This is about your brother, specifically Yasuo Zoldyck so this is for you more than anyone else."

She continued noticing no change in his expression as if he already predicted this,

"Few and between know this but... He has some kind of relationship with the silver snake's leader and is most likely her lover.

He didn't do much to hide this so I don't think people care but you should know what the silver snake family is, right?"

Killua's face couldn't help but slightly twitch and nodded but the same couldn't be said for the boy next to him who asked confused, "The Silver Snake?"

Already expecting Gon won't know of such a thing, Killua explained instead of Biscuit, "It's a mafia family... I don't know much about it but I heard about it a lot back when I was still doing... Jobs.

It's the largest mafia family in the world and that's all I know as I didn't bother investigating it since I never received a mission regarding it and If what you said is true then It makes sense, I guess..." To which Gon nodded in understanding.

And only then did Biscuit continued in a tone even more solemn than the last, "No... It's not just the largest family in the world., It's the only mafia family currently existing in the world."

That left the two young hunters stunned especially Killua who knows the full implications of such a thing so he asked wanting to confirm, "What happened to the mafia families in Yorknew city?"

"I'm not sure what exactly happened but I'm sure every one of them is dead and that goes for all the mafia families in the world.

They've been exterminated down to the lowest members to... even their families.

The silver snake family's leader is known for her ruthlessness and leading abilities as she pushed the family from just a family of the Kakin empire to what it became now...

But I think your brother is involved in this somehow else how could the family become so strong suddenly so I think he is actually the real leader of the family... Do you understand what I'm getting at?"

Killua nodded frowning, "If that's true then he either orders for such a thing to happen or he just doesn't care if it does.

And most importantly, he doesn't need for someone to be a target to kill so I don't think he abides down by the family rules like my grandfather, I think he is more like my father and my mother... And Illumi that don't mind killing outside of jobs so... he is dangerous and ambitious."

Biscuit nodded adding, "And that's also what I think. Also, why would he complete the quest and just keep the card with him not allowing anyone to complete the game

That's something you should take into consideration especially considering his level of influence and power... In the end however, he is your brother so you can use the information however you want."

Killua nodded in understanding with a solemn expression while a frown could clearly be noticed on Gon's face.

The two contemplated what they should do for a while before Killua said, "We don't have a choice now so we have to meet him and... I don't know why but I think I can trust him a bit... Probably because he has never done anything bad to my family so I don't think he'll try anything on us.

And when I escaped from home even though I knew he was there but I hoped he won't stop me and he didn't... I just felt like I can trust him a bit just like now..." Gon didn't disagree hearing that knowing full well they have no choice as Killua said.

Biscuit on the other hand didn't seem to trust those words so she insisted on something.

"Ok, but I will be with you two when the meeting happens... just in case, any objection?" The two shook their head knowing it's their best course of action.

It wasn't long before Yasuo contacted them with the meeting location being the magic city of Masadora, specifically, a coffee restaurant in the city.

Once they reached the place, they found him already waiting for them with a cup of coffee in his hand while stroking his earring with his other hand.

His appearance remained as ever not changing one bit as if his built reached its ultimate state or as he likes to call it, the limit of what his body can reach with any abnormal interference.

A tranquil expression was painted on his face with the air around him being just as peaceful making people around him let their guard down.

"Killua, it's been a while." Simply greeted The handsome man while signaling for the three to take a seat.

And so did with Killua's nervousness washing away after meeting the other Zoldyck and noticing his casualness and the tranquil air around him so he nodded, "En, it's been a while."

A small smile surfaced on Yasuo's face as he continued, "Yeah... it's really been a while since you left home, Since you left a deep wound on your mother's face, huh and you didn't come back to apologize."

Killua's face couldn't help but twitch as he tensed up but he knows it was necessary for him to do so at the time and was about to talk before the older Zoldyck interrupted him with a tone of amusement.

"I was just joking so don't be so nervous. She's actually quite proud of you doing such a thing."

Killua tried his best not to show his embarrassment saying, "I'm not nervous... I'm just not used to talking to you."

Yasuo raised his brows in amusement but didn't mess with the young Zoldcyk any further.

Instead, he brought his left hand which he was using to stroking the silver earring on his left ear, and lifted that hand in front of him which has the Greed Island ring saying, "Book!"

The binder appeared floating in front of him, an almost completely empty book if not for the three special cards inside, cards he specifically prepared for this day.

One being 'Plot of the beach' card which they need to complete the game while the other two are the two choices Yasuo was thinking about.

About which of the two should he choose and he made up his mind a while ago and the moment he was waiting for arrived, the moment to get the king and a bonus on top of that though what the king is and what the bonus remains unknown.

As the three watched his every move with Biscuit saying nothing, Yasuo showed them the card saying.

"I don't know what happens when the game is completed... If the game restarts or not but I decided not to take the chance.

After all, having three cards with magical abilities is too interesting to miss so I took this card as to not allow anyone to finish the game and think thoroughly about what cards I want."

A smile of interest appeared on Yasuo's face as he added, "I have another two cards in the book which I planned to take out of the game once I win but I still haven't decided on the last one.

Know that getting all the other cards is too easy for me so with all this information, you can see how it's a losing deal for me to give you the card so what can you put on the table that'll make it worth it?"

Against all expectation, hearing that made the two young hunters let a sigh of relief and while Biscuit was relieved as well, she didn't let that show on her face.

After all, they can trust the greed of someone like him more than kindness which will only make them suspicious... Something Yasuo expected.
