Chapter 141 - Chapter 128: One-Punch Scissors Demon

Chrollo was at the front of a long line of people: [The members have already left, I wonder what wishes they made.]

"Everyone, please wait patiently in line! There were originally two wish-making spots, but one was just destroyed! It hasn't been refreshed yet!"

"Huh? Who was so violent!"

"I heard they drew a bad luck slip."

"Actually, drawing good or bad luck won't really cause anything to happen, it's not like a risk die."

Chrollo: "..."

Everyone's eyes turned to the leader of The Phantom Troupe. Chrollo was holding the chameleon cat in one hand, looking down and teasing it.

"Why don't we just skip the line? I don't believe in this stuff anyway," Hisoka said boredly.

Illumi looked at his younger siblings behind him, feeling good about the family activity and not impatient at all.

"Then why don't you go finish the mission in the back? My siblings don't seem to want to be with you either."

"Little Illumi~ you're so hurtful."

"It's the truth, Milluki is wary of you," Illumi said, patting Milluki's head.

Milluki stiffened, and only relaxed after Illumi finished patting him.

Saiki Kusuo: Who are you more wary of anyway.

"Ha, haha..." Milluki laughed, turning to the other side: "Hey Alluka! What wish will you make?"

Alluka muttered innocently: "Something like becoming stronger..."

"Brother Alluka, there's no rush to become stronger," Killua said. [I want big brother Killua to come home!]

Unfortunately, that one clearly wouldn't come true.

When it comes to praying to gods and making wishes, none of the adults here really believe in gods.

Illumi just sees it as a family activity, Hisoka is just playing along, Chrollo?

He seems like the kind of person who would say: I myself am the god of the new world.

So what are they doing? Has anyone realized that the mission didn't require them to pray to the gods?

The long line finally reached them.

"Hold the incense in your hand, light it, bow three times, and make your wish," a helpful NPC said, handing over free incense.

"Oh, thank you." Chrollo, who was next to him, took a bundle, examined the material, flicked it, smelled it, and then distributed the incense to the others.

Completely disrespectful, he even wanted to snap it in half.

The NPC pretended not to see: "Of course, you can also worship in your own way, the appearances that appear in the hall are also born from your hearts."

Appearances are born from the heart...

Okay, what does that mean.

"Oh, he looks rich."

Turning around, it turned out that Illumi had gone to worship first. He was originally holding the incense in one hand, but now he was holding it with both hands, palms together, and bowed out of admiration.

The wish in his heart was: [The Zoldyck family will make a lot of money, and unexpected wealth will come, otherwise, I should do activities like the Troupe during the off-season. Hmm...]

Illumi, you really shouldn't join the Troupe.

Then Chrollo walked in, smiled slightly, and bowed: [I originally wanted to wish everyone success with Nen, but now... I hope the spiders can endure, the bond between the members is still too deep.]

This guy actually knows?

Chrollo bowed deeply and left, following Illumi's footsteps.

What did he see to be so polite?

The children went up one after another.

Alluka: [I want a teacher!]

God received it, and is helping you find them.

Killua: [I hope the family can always be together!]

The Zoldycks will always be together, as long as Illumi doesn't act weird, everyone will be together.

Milluki: [I hope to make friends who get along well! Preferably someone who can play e-sports with me!]

How about letting Shalnark beat you in seconds.

Hisoka walked in, hands on his hips holding the incense turning in circles: [Hehehe... I hope to encounter more delicious apples this year, I hope to have an easy fight with Chrollo... Ah~ so exciting, my fruits, seize your chance on this Greed Island...]

Don't get excited at a time like this.

When it came to Saiki Kusuo, he didn't see anything when he looked up, so he completed the whole process by putting his palms together in a proper manner.

[If I have to make a wish, I hope I can say goodbye to everything and smoothly go back to my original home.]

This world is not the normal world that Saiki Kusuo grew up and knew.

In this world, he has changed too many standards, and has used his superpowers too many times as a matter of course, just like Nen users using their powers.

If possible, the original world is better after all.

More ordinary, simpler, and he can also feel more ordinary happiness.

"Ah! Mr. Chrollo! You drew a very bad luck slip!!" Alluka shouted.

"Will I die?!"

"Haha, probably not, it's just a slip... Can you help me see if there's any Nen attached to me?"

...

See, there are too many unusual related people around.

Completely, not, ordinary.

Saiki Kusuo stuck the incense and left.

In the room where the slips were drawn, people were gathered in a circle. Saiki Kusuo was wondering when he saw Chrollo in a painful state.

Pain? Through seeing, he saw chains tightening.

Are the Troupe members nearby?

Several loud bangs came from the roof from time to time. Saiki Kusuo looked up and saw two people fighting with each other on the eaves.

"I knew my intuition was correct, it was you who attacked our leader."

"I did attack someone yesterday, with the intention of abusing some children, but I didn't find them so I took it out on someone else. I know you can't let me go, I hope we can have a fair fight..."

"1 on 1 is already very fair, don't make me talk nonsense, get down the mountain and duel!"

"No! My heart is with the gods, and if I am to get blood on the first day of the new year, it has to be here!"

Both of you get down.

What heart is with the gods, the scissors demon clearly figured out that Machi feared fighting near the mountain temple, so he deliberately got close.

No matter who wins, whoever fights here will surely die.

Inside the temple.

"Hey, look at his condition!"

"Is this the punishment for very bad luck! It's really like a risk die!"

"What are you talking about, who wants to take such a big risk for a random card!"

"Hey, you next to me, does he usually have some kind of disease? Are you with him?"

Illumi watched with his arms folded, and was caught off guard being asked: "Huh? Are you asking me, why should I tell you that he usually has mental problems?"

"Oh... so he usually has mental problems."

"It's obvious that he has physical problems now!"

Friendly reminder: If you think this book is good, please remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid not finding it next time

Saiki Kusuo sweated, and passed the situation to Machi through his mind. Machi realized the seriousness of the problem, and raised her hand to brutally punch the scissors demon in the face. The scissors demon flew out from above, causing another disturbance outside.

"What was that that just flew out from above?"

"What happened, is the commotion inside because of this?"

Saiki Kusuo: More or less related.

Machi left, and Chrollo finally came back to his senses. At this time, not many people around were willing to step forward to draw slips.

Even a small chance is still a chance. Some people are here for adventure, while others just want to slack off and wait for the chance to go home.

"...I'm not going to keep drawing, what a dumb mission!"

"Let's go, there's really no free lunch in the world. Let's just go get the blessed talisman, if you think about it carefully, this slip-drawing part wasn't originally in the mission!"

"It's better to go down the mountain after we get it, it's much more fun there than here."

Another commotion, and the crowd dispersed.

Even telepathy isn't so crowded anymore.

"Will this stuff really change luck?" Alluka opened her mouth after a long time, "I drew a very good luck slip! Will I have good luck?"

"Shouldn't be any connection? Chrollo probably just had a member close by just now?" Hisoka said with his hands on his hips, "How naughty."

Chrollo rubbed his abdomen and propped himself up. No one would care about how painful he was just now, everyone wanted to go to the hospital to check if their internal organs were about to be damaged by the chains.

Saiki Kusuo used his see-through eyes to observe.

[Don't worry, you're healthy.]

Another private broadcast, and Chrollo turned his head in confusion. [How did you determine that?]

[I can see through things, huh? Haven't I revealed that before?] Saiki Kusuo said and hesitated, [Do you want to get hit in the head?]

Chrollo hadn't recovered from his see-through ability, [Why hit me?]

[I have an instant kill headbutt that makes the other party lose a part of their memory, I have to use it while it's effective, you won't be able to forget it for long.]

Chrollo wiped his sweat, and even moved a step closer to Hisoka: [...Please be sure not to use it.]

Hisoka looked at Chrollo's back as he moved closer, his eyes on Chrollo's body wandered: [Ah... it's about to recover, Nen... what an inspiring dance it will be ☆]

Chrollo seemed to sense something, and turned his head: "Did you find anything looking at me? Hisoka."

"Found your deliciousness~ although it's still too weak now, Chrollo."

Chrollo stared at the excited Hisoka: "I'm very concerned about something, are you misunderstanding something."

"Hmm?" Hisoka was confused.

"Even if I recover my Nen, I won't fight you, haven't you thought that the reason I asked the members to stay nearby was for this?"

"..."

"They will come to my side as soon as I recover my Nen."

"Hmph~~~" Hisoka hummed several high and low tones, "There will be a chance, dear~"

On the other side, Saiki Kusuo's gaze shifted downwards.

Killua didn't look at Hisoka's strange human lower body, he was looking at the three children gathered in the same direction.

The three children seemed to be using the Zoldyck's code gestures in weird places, whispering and gesticulating.

[Why doesn't elder brother stop the two of them! They've already started calling each other dear!]

[I said it was Hisoka and Mr. Chrollo...]

[But what does this have to do with our Zoldycks? Why does elder brother have to tell Mr. Kusuo...]

[You two idiots, let me tell you, Mr. Kusuo and Chrollo are friends, and elder brother and Hisoka are friends! When they get married, Killua will invite friends!]

[Eh! Friends?! Aren't we not allowed to make friends at home?]

[That's right. Friends will only hinder our progress, in the closest relationship of our Zoldyck family, there only needs to be family.]

Something got mixed in.

Saiki Kusuo's eyes widened suddenly as he looked at the three children, and his pupils shrank. A pair of slender big hands mixed into the three pairs of small hands, and no one dared to look up.

"What's wrong? Don't want elder brother to hear your whispers? Elder brother only saw the last sentence." [I'm glad you remember not to make friends so clearly.] Illumi withdrew his hand, feeling emotional.

Saiki Kusuo watched the whole process, and was silent.

"Everyone has drawn slips, does Kusuo want to try?" Illumi asked.

Saiki Kusuo saw that everyone had one, so he went up and picked up the slip box and shook it.

"Remember to make a wish, you might have good luck~" Hisoka shook the good luck slip in his hand.

Didn't you just say you didn't believe it.

Only one will fall out at a time, Saiki Kusuo shook the box.

[I hope to spend the new year quietly.]

A slip fell out. Saiki Kusuo picked it up, and the first thing he saw was the word "Peach Blossom" written on it.

——Fate will come without worry, an ordinary person will emerge, the river of forgetfulness will wax and En again, sit and watch peach blossoms filling the room.

"Ah, it's a good luck slip! So amazing, as expected of elder brother Kusuo!" Alluka was sincerely happy.

This is a bad omen.

"Peach blossom luck? Hehehe, so lucky, could it be with that little girl?" Hisoka guessed.

That's a 50-year-old grandma.

"Kusuo is going to have someone he likes?" Illumi narrowed his eyes, and the slight doubts that had been dispelled before reappeared.

Saiki Kusuo: ...

How many days will this prophetic poem last, will it really be fulfilled, it's just for fun right.

Gods don't exist! This is still a game world in the manga world! Cyber gods don't exist!

"Go get the talisman, let's finish the mission early," Chrollo said, "My luck has been bad recently, where should I throw this slip?"

If I throw it away, can I not accept it, I'll throw it in the sea, I'll go one more time and throw it away together.

The 3rd mission is very simple, you only need to take a piece of paper on the table and write a talisman, and then find a monk to bless it before you can go down the mountain.

Saiki Kusuo went to get the talisman, not having any skills with words, he "wrote" a high-definition small world tree on it.

As for the others, they all left behind calligraphy words to some extent.

Chrollo and Illumi could chat about this, the words they wrote were both elegant, and it was clear they had practiced.

After all, Grandpa loved calligraphy, and why Chrollo practiced this is unknown.

"Illumi, your writing is very good, Chinese characters are indeed more suitable for calligraphy than hunter characters."

"Yes, I think so too. Do you want to buy it?"

"Haha, no need for that."

Chrollo had grown accustomed to Illumi's constant talk about business.

Hisoka put down the pen and admired his painting, a scene of a bountiful harvest under an apple tree, he turned his head and saw the talisman in Saiki Kusuo's hand next to him: ?

A printer?

"Did Kusuo draw this? Amazing." Illumi clapped his hands.

"...Elder brother! This isn't a matter of being amazing, right, this looks like a copy!" Milluki stretched his head to look and was shocked.

"This is Kusuo's talent, Milluki. He could draw exquisite portraits of mom when he was three years old."

Saiki Kusuo: I don't remember this happening.

Illumi fell into a brief moment of memory: "Hmm, when I wanted him to learn painting?"

Then it was certainly possible to show it off.

The old monk who blesses the talisman was in the back, a group went to the back, and saw a monk wearing a small robe, less than 1.4 meters tall, standing in place with his hands together, chanting scriptures.
