On their way to the second floor, Kaizoku saw Destion still imprisoned for the second time.
This time, Kaizoku promised himself to reclaim his revolver, an item extremely precious to him.
Kaizoku chose to keep his patience for later, he definitely had future plans.
Though sweat was streaming down his entire face, they finally reached the dining room on the second floor.
There, Gon and Lilith were already seated neatly, waiting for Kaizoku and Sylphy at the long dining table.
Kaizoku found it strange, as he had expected to dine with all of Lord Gon's helpers and servants, but apparently not.
Kaizoku and Sylphy chose to sit on Lord Gon's left side, facing Lilith who sat neatly on Lord Gon's right.
Gon looks very quiet even though both sides are filled with different people, is he thinking about something?
The food was ready - fried chicken, luxurious pastries, fried fish - almost every kind of food was laid out before them on the elegant long table.
Kaizoku's stomach was growling, but he had to maintain proper manners and restrain himself from inappropriate behavior.
Gon broke the awkward atmosphere with his words. "So... Billy and Mary... Please enjoy this special meal prepared by my maids and servants."
Having received permission from the castle's master, Kaizoku and Sylphy quickly grabbed the freshly cooked fried chicken.
They ate ravenously. Finally, Kaizoku and Sylphy got to enjoy delicious food after more than two nights of eating bland meals without seasonings.
Gon and Lilith just watched Kaizoku and Sylphy with blank expressions, observing their voracious eating.
"Ahem..."
Lord Gon gave a little warning to Kaizoku and Sylphy.
Realizing what they were doing, they put their fried chicken back on their plates.
With uncomfortable smiles, they both apologized. "Sorry..."
Gon continued speaking after hearing Kaizoku and Sylphy apologize for their behavior.
"Please enjoy your dinner slowly. Now, I haven't heard about your objectives and possible desires after successfully defeating and even killing Cerberus, my legendary pet."
Kaizoku and Sylphy exchanged glances, having already agreed that their goal was to ask for Gon's help to leave the Underworld.
"Gon want to hear from Billy first... Prove that humans aren't so bad..." with bland expression, Gon asked.
Although Gon spoke without opening his mouth, Kaizoku could sense Gon's hatred toward humans.
Nevertheless, Kaizoku maintained his spirit and courage to escape the Underworld, answering with great confidence.
"My wish is very simple, Lord Gon. My partner Mary and I just want to leave the Underworld with your help."
Gon stared directly into Kaizoku's eyes without emotion. "Heh... Are you sure that's your only request?"
It seemed Gon could read Kaizoku's mind. Indeed, not only did he want to leave the Underworld, but Kaizoku also wanted Destion back in his hands.
Gon continued speaking emotionlessly.
"Gon is sure you want your weapon back, don't you? A rather strange and unfamiliar weapon. However, Gon is certain your weapon is very powerful..."
Lord Gon's words made Kaizoku nervous and hesitant to speak, as his secret weapon had been exposed. The secret of how desperately he wanted to reclaim Destion.
Certainly, this situation could worsen if Kaizoku kept insisting on taking his revolver back. And there was a possibility that Kaizoku and Sylphy would enter an even more dangerous zone...
