Chapter 111: And So I Have The King

.......

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.

"What do you want?" Asked Gon hoping it's not something impossible for them to do or something they won't want to do.

There seems to be a light hidden deep within Yasuo's eyes as he thought to himself, 'So simple... Once one knows what the other think... what the other want, The complicated becomes just so simple.'

Then instead of answering, he asked back, "The question is what can you offer?"

Gon and Killua both looked at each other nodding then saying to him, "We'll owe you... both of us."

The older Zoldyck looked at the two with amusement apparent in his eyes, "You'll owe me? That's funny. I'm your brother Killua which means I'm a Zoldyck.

On top of that, I'm a 3-star hunter so what do I win by you two owing me?

You must've investigated me a bit and knew that I ask for people to owe sometimes but that's only for people I think I might need in the future so provide a better offer."

Gon frowned while Killua seems thoughtful knowing that with most other Zoldycks, it's useless to use family as a reason to do such favor and that also applies to the man in front of him.

Only to hear Biscuit sitting next to him remarked with impatience apparent in her voice, "Just say what you want without wasting our time, I'm sure someone like you already knows what he wants so stop messing around."

Yasuo raised his brows smiling, "Don't like me huh. Well, you're right, I know what I want because while I can easily collect all the other necessary cards myself, it will still take some time.

So how about this, You two will still owe me one and... As I'm sure you know, the winner gets to take three cards out of the game allowing it to be useable in the outside world, I want a spot as you see, I really need that particular card."

Gon frowned then looked at Biscuit whose expression didn't change even though she will be on the losing end if the deal is accepted.

After all, the two did make an agreement with her that if they were to win, she gets a spot which will allow her to get the card she wants.

The card called 'blue planet' and when the code word 'Gain' is uttered, it turns into a blue gem, one that exists only in Greed Island.

There is another kind of card however, a special kind of card that doesn't actually work inside the Island or outside, just simple cards as It won't make sense if they actually do.

Cards that have special properties that will only work if one won the game... such as the two cards within Yasuo's book.

The card named Fickle Genie, This genie will grant one three wishes, but one needs to suggest 1000 potential, significantly different wishes and he will choose three from among them and there is no cheating by asking for different increments of money.

So if such a card worked using the code word 'Gain' then anyone on Greed Island can use it and even with the catch it's still a strongly magical card.

The other card is Poltergeist Pillow. It is one of the game's 100 designated slot cards and so is required for a player to complete the game.

This pillow allows one to roam around in your astral form and this is the card Yasuo wants.

Biscuit nodded towards him saying with impatience still apparent in her tone wanting to leave from Yasuo's sight as soon as possible though the reason for such a reaction remains unknown.

"Just go ahead and accept, what I want isn't that needed for me so it's better if you finish the game."

Even with her permission, The young Gon still seems hesitant after all, reneging on promises isn't something he wants to do but he noticed even Killua insinuating for him to accept while the older Zoldyck just looked at this with amusement knowing full well why she wants to leave.

Fear is something normal for humans, normal for every sentient being that has emotions and desires, And that's what she's feeling right now in his presence for reasons unknown to Gon and Killua who are already under his invisible blades.

"I accept." Finally acquiesced Gon having no other choice but to do so and the moment he did is the moment the silver long-chain earring on Yasuo's left ear started shining in a green light as the ability's conditions were met.

An ability he never once used just waiting for that point in time where he planned to use it... to collect what was promised.

Then Yasuo passed the card to Gon and also passed the other card he wants, "This is the card I want, leave it with you for when you win the game."

Gon looked at the card stunned and even Biscuit's face couldn't help but twitch looking at what she thinks is a useless card.

The card that will take place of what she wants 'Blue planet' The rarest gem on the planet because it only exists in Greed Island yet he wants something like that... a pillow... Poltergeist Pillow.

"This is what you want? isn't it useless?" Wondered Gon curious to which Yasuo casually answered, "I'm just curious... that's all, I'm a researcher after all."

Biscuit stood up wanting to leave after the deal was done and Gon has done the same yet the younger Zoldyck remained in his seat unmoving and the two notice though before they can say anything, he said.

"Can you please leave me alone with him for a minute? I want to talk with him." Biscuit frowned but complied nonetheless knowing he won't try anything on his family.

"Thank you... For not stopping me back then." Thanked Killua after the other two left.

"Don't worry about it, I rarely interfere in the family business so..." Simply explained Yasuo before asking, "What is that you really want to ask?"

Killua nodded asking solemnly, "You must've noticed but even Biscuit was scared of you, that's why she wanted to leave so quickly.

Though I don't know exactly why, I know that insinuates your strength which should be at least at Illumi's level yet even with your strength and influence all over the world and being a 3-star hunter, you're... not the heir, why?"

"It's simple really, I just didn't want to be the heir so I refused the offer." The simple answer left Killua speechless bringing more questions than answers to him as he asked again.

"That means father wanted you to be the heir but you refused... Then how come I don't have the option to refuse?"

The older Zoldyck slightly smiled, "That's also simple... Because you're weak while I was strong."

After which Yasuo stood up adding, "I'll appear when you guys finish the game so see you later."

And before Killua can react, the man standing in front of him disappeared not to be seen anywhere near as if he was never really there.

Killua got out of his daze still not sure what really happened, whether he's just that fast that he looked like he teleported or he actually has a teleportation ability.

The young Zoldyck walked out of the restaurant noticing the two still waiting for him then they started walking away with the two not asking about what he talked about with the other Zoldyck.

Until Killua himself asked Biscuit a question not able to hold back his curiosity, "What did you see? I noticed your behavior in front of him and while I focused my senses to estimate his strength, I wasn't able to sense anything... But you did, right? How strong is he?"

Biscuit's face lightly twitched hearing that and just started shaking her head while letting out a sigh, "No you're wrong... I saw nothing nor do I know exactly how strong he is but I'm sure he's stronger than me but I don't know by how much."

Killua frowned confused, "Then why were you behaving like that previously? like you're afraid of him?"

"Book!" Uttered Biscuit with the book appearing floating in from of her, she picked a card from it and uttered another code word, "Accompany: On to Sufrabi"

Then a bright light surrounded the three as they started flying towards the city landing in a place not far from it and only then did she start explaining in a stern tone.

"I told you two to be cautious yet you let your guards down completely, why?"

That left the two stunned as they thought back on their behavior in front of him and how relaxed they were, how vulnerable they were to any attack.

Sweat started coming down their spine as they realized just how easy it was to kill them at that point... Too careless.
