Questioning Her Parenting × Seeing Killua Again
At the dining table.
Apart from the high-tech glasses he was wearing, Kikyo appeared perfectly normal.
"I am Qi's mother. You have come here at the invitation of the child's father, so I will be in charge of receiving you for now."
"And so Kikyo explained."
"He received an order a few days ago and is working on it now."
Kevin nodded.
Work, the work of a hitman.
His tone was as calm as if he were installing an air conditioner.
"No need to worry about that. I'm here on your behalf, so as long as the target of the customized needs is there, that's enough."
Kikyo smiled.
"Then I'll have to trouble you with this."
Upon hearing this, Kevin paused briefly and said, "Before that, I'd like to ask what your customization requirements are? The potions I create are not omnipotent, and the customization requirements are also related to the target's own qualities."
Whether a customization can be successfully completed depends on your needs, so please tell me what your customization requirements are beforehand so I can determine if I have the capability.
Upon hearing this...
Kikyo nodded.
To be honest, she was rarely polite to others, and she wasn't a polite woman.
But Kevin is clearly different.
As a member of the Zoldyck Family, she was well aware of the benefits Kevin's potion would bring to the Zoldyck Family.
In particular, the changes that occurred after Qi used the medication over the past year.
After Killua's birth, the Zoldyck Family's core began to revolve around him.
While centering on the odd may not necessarily be a good thing for the odd itself.
But attention is definitely warranted.
The root cause is...
That is his extraordinary talent.
He possesses a talent that surpasses the abilities of all previous Zoldyck Family heads.
In other words...
Qi possesses the talent to become the most powerful member in the Zoldyck Family's history, but ultimately, it's just talent.
To turn talent into skill, you need enough time and enough practice.
Kevin's potion can accelerate this process.
The benefits to this are obvious, and naturally it becomes important to the Zoldyck Family.
When I first learned of this...
Kikyo's true feelings were not at all what a normal conversation with Kevin was about.
What she wanted was to somehow turn Kevin into the Zoldyck Family pharmaceutical machine.
They firmly grasped this potion's power and wholeheartedly assisted Zoldyck Family, enabling Killer's talent to be realized quickly.
However, this suggestion was met with opposition from family members as soon as it was put forward.
Moreover, it was a complete opposition.
Her father-in-law, her husband, and even her eldest son whom she most admired.
She's just extreme in her actions, and a little crazy; she's not stupid.
This became even clearer after learning that Kevin easily pushed open Testing Gate and seeing Kevin in person.
This is undoubtedly a strong person.
Judging by the naked eye, he possesses the most basic elements of a strong person.
Then Kikyo naturally became more polite.
Kikyo didn't think for long before answering Kevin's question.
"My son, Yiqi, is undoubtedly the most talented child in the world, so I want you to customize a potion that can quickly realize his talent."
Hearing such a request.
Kevin fell into deep thought.
How to quickly realize your talents?
Kevin had no doubt that Qi's talent was top-notch.
He had met Qi and interacted with him for a long time, although at that time he had only just begun to understand Nen ability.
He was already shocked by the other party's age and the fighting prowess that did not match his age.
Looking back now, he'll only be more amazed by his extraordinary talent.
In terms of eyesight...
He's definitely not as good Biscuit.
For Biscuit, the three little ones at the Nosra Manor.
Nion, Kurapika, Pairo.
These three are already extremely talented.
But in Kevin's opinion, Qi's talent was definitely superior to the other three.
To be honest, if we brought this child to Biscuit...
Biscuit might be unable to resist her desire to educate and take the initiative to teach him Nen ability.
Of course, this is just his guess and analogy.
There is no doubt about her talent.
The Zoldyck Family purchased large quantities of the drugs he sold while he was away.
[Digestion Potion] are naturally included.
However, it must be made clear that Qi is still a child.
And it's a child who should be in elementary school.
Therefore, even Digestion Potion have their limits; it's impossible to truly force growth.
Furthermore, Qi may have used more than just this one drug; other drugs may have also been used to assist in his training.
Is Kevin the only candidate for using medication to assist with training?
The answer is no.
[Blank Meteor] can accelerate and memorize, and its passive effect, which lasts a long time, will also make the support's effect better.
This means that, under normal circumstances, the medication will also have an effect on other people's exercise within fifteen minutes.
Why not use it that way?
Fifteen minutes is too short. Even if it does provide a good workout, it's only fifteen minutes.
Moreover, although the medication no longer has side effects, it is still a drug, an external substance applied to the human body.
Some Restriction of Nen ability exist in the subconscious.
For example, every medicine has some degree of toxicity, and an overdose of medicine can have harmful effects.
These are all effects that occur in the medicine under subconscious circumstances.
It is precisely because of this subconscious awareness that once the body's physical fitness has developed to a certain level, one can be unafraid of the harm caused by drug overdose.
But Qi clearly doesn't belong to this stage.
The reason why others don't use it this way is simply because it's expensive.
Kevin wasn't doing any charity work; he was making a fortune selling drugs.
Expand your network while accumulating substantial wealth.
The revenue of the Pharmacy is comparable to that of the entire Red Stone Pharmaceuticals Company.
This shows you just how outrageous the profits of Pharmacy are.
Locke, who used to be in charge of delivering medicine, has now become a full-time medicine deliveryman, and has even hired several skilled Hunter x Hunter to ensure safety during transport.
This reveals the potential profit margin.
This kind of usage is something Zoldyck Family, besides Kevin's Nosra Manor, could afford.
It seems we've reached our limit.
In other words...
The effects of the Qi Yin potion have reached their limit at this age; all that's left is to wait for Qi to grow.
After thinking it over, and with a responsible attitude, Kevin spoke up.
"I think I've gathered some information. You purchased a large quantity of potions from the Pharmacy, and quite a few of them were probably used on Qi, right? To maximize the benefits of his training?"
The members of the Zoldyck Family clearly had no intention of hiding this fact.
Kikyo nodded as well.
"Well, I know my own potions well. In that case, it's very likely that Qi has already made good use of his current talent."
Perhaps my potion has created some unnecessary expectations on your part. Qi may have already reached the limit of his current talent. All you need to do is wait for him to continue to grow.
After all, he's still just a child, and his current level of maturity may have already surpassed that of most adults in the world.
After listening to Kevin's story...
Illumi remained unmoved, though he secretly agreed to some extent.
His younger brother is very capable.
Kalluto, who sat beside him like a ghost, was also slightly amazed.
His brother is really amazing.
Only Kikyo's expression changed very noticeably, becoming somewhat angry and...
The voice was distorted, sounding like someone gritting their teeth.
"You mean to say that Qi's talent has reached its limit at this stage, and that my son's talent is nothing special?!"
"Throat?"
Kevin was puzzled.
She turned to look at Melusina beside her.
At this moment, Melusina rested her chin on her hands and swung her legs, looking quite relaxed.
Is that what I meant?
His year-long journey across the Dark Continent had caused some problems with his language skills that he himself was unaware of.
Melusina shook her head.
Pairo shook his head beside her, clearly indicating that Ms. Kikyo had misunderstood, or perhaps her personality was too extreme.
"No, it's this lady's own misunderstanding that's wrong; her personality is a bit too extreme."
Like a strict mother in a comic book who has excessive expectations of the male protagonist.
Melusina succinctly observed, "This mother is so relatable, she looks like she stepped right out of a comic book."
From the moment Kikyo appeared in that intriguing outfit, Melusina had been observing him closely.
Kevin nodded; he understood easily.
Pairo looked at Melusina with a puzzled expression.
Is it really okay to say something like that so directly?
And it happened in someone else's home.
As expected.
Melusina's words were like a match that lit a fuse.
"Are you saying there's something wrong with my upbringing?"
A murderous intent, an undisguised murderous intent, began to permeate the air.
If it was a year ago...
Melusina would definitely act instinctively because of such murderous intent.
But now.
Faced with the overwhelming killing intent, Melusina simply smiled.
A dark, Resentment aura began to permeate the air.
In an instant, the entire room became cold and damp.
Illumi instinctively stood up and jumped a few steps behind him, creating a safe distance.
Kalluto also jumped to the doorway in an instant.
Even the butlers standing nearby instantly went into battle mode.
The main target is to bear the consequences.
Kikyo left his original position almost Teleportation, raising his fan and gathering Nen Aura there.
But compared to her...
The housekeepers acted even more swiftly.
Among them, the Gotoh grew the fastest.
"Calm down, everyone."
Kevin's words were calm yet powerful.
An overwhelming pressure instantly enveloped the entire room, rendering everyone immobile.
Was it malicious? It doesn't seem like it.
Is it hostility or murderous intent? They are different.
It's just pure, unadulterated pressure stemming from a shift in momentum.
It's simply a declaration to others, a declaration of one's own will.
The air was well contained within the room, making the air inside seem stagnant.
It was as if everyone was in a space filled with solidified colloid.
Only Melusina remained unaffected, even displaying a happy smile, having completely suppressed her Resentment.
In her view, this was Kevin protecting her.
Then she should also respond and stop trying to steal the spotlight at this moment.
Pairo was sweating profusely. The Resentment that Sister Melusina had just displayed had already terrified him, and the aura that Uncle Kevin was now showing left him even more bewildered.
It's only been a year.
The changes in the two of them were so great that he almost lost track of the extent of the gap between them.
It's one thing to be far behind Uncle Kevin, but I never expected that the gap between me and Sister Melusina would also be so large within a year.
Kevin's imposing presence compelled everyone present to calm down according to his will.
A sound came from outside.
"Young Master Qi."
"Are we having guests? Grandpa said he needed me to come over."
"Hmm—Madam, Illumi, and Young Master Kalluto are inside."
"Oh!"
Qi's voice sounded rather novel.
The moment he pushed the door open, Kevin completely withdrew his imposing aura.
The pressure vanished instantly.
"Kevin!"
Qi's excitement burst forth from the ceiling, and with a leap, she landed next to Kevin, her eyes wide with joy.
"Kevin, what brings you to my house! Are you here as a guest?!"
Qi was extremely excited at this moment, after all, Kevin was his first friend, and a very good friend at that.
She was even the first friend to visit his home.
He was overjoyed.
Kevin smiled and raised his fist.
"Long time no see, Qi! Would you like to come to your house as a guest?"
"Of course!"
Qi excitedly stretched out his fist and bumped it with Kevin's.
Melusina by, somewhat curious.
Is this the person who requested the customized solution?
I didn't expect her to be so young.
She had never inquired about Qi's information, always assuming that Qi must be at least a teenager.
I never expected it to be just a child.
Furthermore, she referred to Kevin as a friend, and interestingly, Kevin felt the same way.
He reached out his hand with curiosity.
"My name is Melusina, and I'm Kevin's girlfriend."
Qi glanced at Melusina. If she were just Kevin's girlfriend, he would only give her basic respect. But surprisingly, she didn't look down on him because of his age.
Instead, they adopted the same attitude as their peers.
This made him very happy.
Qi approved of her.
This is what a girlfriend should be like to one's friend.
"Hello, my name is Qi."
He smiled and shook hands with Melusina.
You can call her sister-in-law.
Kevin chuckled as he spoke from the side.
"Ha! You mean you're my older brother?"
"Oh? Isn't that right? Even friends have different ages, right? I'm obviously much older than you. Calling me 'big brother' won't hurt you."
As he spoke, Kevin patted the other person on the shoulder and raised an eyebrow.
After hesitating for a moment, Qi nodded at Melusina.
"Sister in law."
Melusina's face lit up with a smile, and her legs couldn't help but swing under the table.
She hugged Kevin's shoulders tightly.
Kevin winked at Qi where Melusina couldn't see.
Qi didn't quite understand what it meant, but he felt like he had been used.
At this moment, Pairo was extremely uncomfortable.
Wrong.
Nine out of ten is incorrect.
The atmosphere in this room has become somewhat distorted.
He couldn't help but look at the other three people who were now silent and had distorted expressions.
Although he couldn't understand it, he was deeply shocked.
Something's not right about this assassin family.
