Traveling Companions X Going Home

Are you getting ready to leave?

In the Training Ground of the Nosra Manor, Men Qi looked at Gon and Qi and asked.

Qi nodded.

She pursed her lips and said helplessly, "I should have gone back a long time ago, but I've been very busy these past few months. My mother has been urging me to go back."

Actually, both Dad and Grandpa were urging him, since Qi had been away from home for too long this time and they had completely lost contact with him.

Although they were able to receive news and learn about Qi through various channels after his return.

But there's nothing we can do.

Kiy demonstrated his strength and current state while he was with the Pursuit Team.

Although the Zoldyck Family's intelligence system is very powerful, it still pales in comparison to the machinery of several states.

The Pursuit Team's security system is at the highest level; this is the most basic requirement.

Even the Zoldyck Family's intelligence network was kept out, and anyone who tried to investigate would be considered an enemy and ruthlessly purged.

As a result, the Zoldyck Family only knows that their future head of the family has returned, but they have no idea what the specifics are.

But he also knew that these past few months were very important for Qi, as they could effectively enhance Qi's status in human society as a whole.

This is very important to them, even though they come from a family of assassins.

They didn't send a message until everything had calmed down.

"Kiy came to my house with me, so I have to go to their house with Kiy too."

Gon said with a smile from the side.

Qi looked at Men Qi and suddenly asked, "Do you want to come to my house to play too?"

Not many people remained at the Nosra Manor.

Everyone is busy.

Those who are idle are all people who have nothing to do.

For example, Men Qi and Buhaci.

Their main concerns are food and nutrition; there's not much else to do, and those issues have already been resolved.

These ingredients would only be of interest if they could be made available to chefs from all walks of life, allowing them to showcase their skills.

But that's clearly impossible now.

"No, I need to use this time to work on some recipes."

There's a sense of crisis in the Dark Continent, and I'm quite busy. I have all sorts of ingredients every day, and inspiration is everywhere, so I can't really settle down and focus.

Now is the perfect time.

"That's a pity," Kiy said casually, seemingly unconcerned.

"Want to come to your house? The one with that assassin family, the kind you see on TV?"

A small figure suddenly jumped down from the ceiling and landed beside them.

This commotion left the people around them somewhat helpless.

"Three-Tails, you startled me! Didn't I tell you not to hide away so secretly every day? Be careful your mother comes to catch you again."

Men Qi picked up Three-Tails and gave her little face a good rub.

The Three-Tails creature chuckled, seemingly unconcerned.

Although she has transformed into an extremely humanoid Demonic Beast, some wild animal traits still remain.

For example, they might habitually hide their presence, enjoy playing pranks, or like to scare people.

Putting everything else aside, just in terms of concealing its presence, the Three-Tails has truly reached the pinnacle.

This is pure talent; it's not something that can be achieved through hard work alone.

Holding Men Qi, Three-Tails looked at Qi and Gon.

Faced with the Three-Tails' gaze, Qi and Gon shifted their eyes, one looking at the floor and the other at the ceiling, as if there was something special about those two places.

"Let me come to your house too? An assassin family, huh? That sounds interesting."

The Three-Tails has been in human society lately, and it's been having a blast.

She was overjoyed by the variety of TV shows, movies, and entertainment facilities available, each one unique.

This allowed Biscuit and Melusina to experience the hardships of raising children ahead of time.

He's still a vibrant child who's always full of energy, as if his stamina is inexhaustible.

This led to a system of rotating childcare responsibilities within the Manor.

One or two people really can't handle it.

Hearing the Three-Tails' words, Qi breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that there was no escaping it this time.

"Um... my home..."

After stammering for a moment, Qi seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up.

"That's right, that's right, my family is the number one assassin family! It's even more interesting than what's shown on TV! Do you want to come over and play?"

"I have several brothers and sisters, and my dad, grandpa, and mom all love children, especially children like you."

Kiy spoke, the smile on his face deepened, and the corners of his mouth curled back, as if he had thought of something, and his smile had become wicked.

Gon, who was standing nearby, scratched his head after hearing this.

Do you?

Thinking back to my time with the Zoldyck Family, I don't recall having any good memories.

What exactly is it about those guys that they like children?

I don't understand.

"Your mom might not agree to you going with her."

Men Qi tugged at the cheek of the Three-Tails and said.

"I agree!"

At the entrance to the training room, Melusina walked in at some point.

"Really, Mom?"

Three-Tails jumped down and hopped into Melusina's arms in two steps, hugging her neck and asking.

Melusina smiled and tapped the Three-Tails's nose.

"Of course, I believe they can both take good care of you, right?"

As he spoke, he turned his head and stared at the two of them with a smile.

Seeing that smile, Qi and Gon both broke out in a sweat and nodded.

Don't worry, there won't be any problems.

And what problems could there be?

It's good enough if the Three-Tails doesn't bother others.

"It's a rare opportunity to come back, and who knows when we'll be able to do it again, or even ever again. Don't you want to take a good look around?"

Men Qi, upon hearing this, looked at Melusina and asked.

Melusina waved her hand casually.

"It's boring. Besides, when I was first thrown into the Dark Continent, I was just wandering around the world with Kevin."

Upon hearing this, Men Qi remembered the incident and slapped her forehead.

That's true.

Kevin was indeed taking Melusina all over the world, wandering around everywhere, and then he got into trouble.

And she's pretty much the same.

Having traveled extensively throughout human society for the past few years or even decades, I've seen enough of its sights.

Not to mention, after experiencing the bizarre and fantastical environment of the Dark Continent, their threshold has been raised to an unimaginable degree.

The greatest benefit of human society to them now is the stable, relaxing, and peaceful atmosphere it provides.

This is the most important point.

"Dad's too much of a homebody, he's so boring."

At this moment, the Three-Tails crossed its arms and said with some dissatisfaction.

These are new characters she's learned recently, and she thinks they're perfect for her father; they're practically tailor-made for him.

Upon hearing this, everyone present nodded.

That's absolutely right.

If Kevin heard this, he would have something to say.

What's the point? It's not like I haven't been there before.

The only interesting things in human society are those Demonic Realm and Secret Realms.

Essentially, it's a scaled-down version of the Dark Continent.

To be honest, he had already seen all the other natural landscapes in his previous life.

As for the city scenery, it's even worse.

It's not as interesting as making pharmaceuticals.

Combining various materials to arrive at useful results is much more interesting than these.

It's like playing a game.

A few days later.

Qi and Gon, along with the Three-Tails, reluctantly embarked on their journey home.

Night.

The rooftop of a building in a certain city.

A tall figure with long, flowing hair stood on the edge of the building, gazing at the city scenery.

Holding a mobile phone in my hand.

Send the prepared text message.

Another order completed?

A somewhat damp and sticky sound came from behind.

Illumi, standing on the edge of the rooftop, didn't turn his head or offer a reply.

--

Hisoka, who was speaking, didn't seem to mind, and just chuckled as he pressed buttons on his phone, as if he were playing Snake.

"Why aren't you answering me? Have you been parasitized? If so, I'll report you and have the Pursuit Team arrest you."

Upon hearing this, Illumi turned around and stared at Hisoka with wide, lifeless eyes.

He felt that Hisoka was reopening old wounds and mocking him.

Because he had previously taken on two jobs, both of which involved encountering Parasite People. He completed the first job relatively well, but in the end, the corpse became an immortal being.

But it's essentially dead.

He almost messed up on his second order, but luckily he ran fast.

He then received a message from his family, and he abandoned any missions related to the Parasite People.

The problem is that this matter is impossible to judge, which is why he hasn't taken any orders in the past few months.

This indicates a business setback.

"Your brother has been back for so long, why hasn't he come home yet?"

"I'm not home."

"Huh? Oh----"

Hisoka was taken aback by the answer before reluctantly taking over the topic.

Illumi looked at Hisoka.

"I warned you, didn't I? Don't get any weird ideas."

"Heh, I'm just interested in other people."

With so much time having passed since Kevin's Exploration Team returned, some information about it has been circulating within the Nen ability community.

Although Hisoka didn't dare to make a move on Kevin, the Exploration Team had returned with so many people, and they were all elites.

He was naturally very curious about the current strength of these people and wanted to assess their capabilities and find a target.

The Parasite People incident dealt a blow to the entire human society, and incidentally, it also dealt a blow to Hisoka's "apple" industry.

Both those with potential and those that had already taken shape suffered heavy losses due to the Parasite People incident.

Hisoka is now finding it difficult to find a suitable target.

As a result, he has been feeling somewhat depressed these past few months.

Illumi didn't understand, but he respected.

"I'm going home."

With that, he jumped off the roof.

Upon hearing this, Hisoka's eyes lit up, and he quickly followed.

After spending some time, I finally found information about Qi and Gon, as well as a little girl.

It looks like they're on their way home.

Thinking of Gon, Hisoka suddenly perked up and became somewhat impatient.

Illumi also quickened his pace and rushed back to his family ahead of everyone else.

The three of them, Kiy, strolled leisurely, unhurried.

The main reason is that with Three-Tails around, being busy is useless.

The Three-Tails was immediately drawn to this and wanted to go check it out, which seriously slowed down their journey home. Fortunately, Qi and Gon were not in a hurry at all.

They traveled at a leisurely pace, like on a tourist trip, and it took them a full two weeks to reach the private area where the Zoldyck Family lived.

Get off the sightseeing bus.

The three of them ran all the way to the Gate of the Underworld.

The security headquarters is right next door.

Zebro stared at the three strange people, completely stunned.

"What's wrong Zebro?"

Qi looked at his Gatekeeper and asked with a smile.

"Young Master Kiy, you've really grown up."

It had been a long time since I'd seen him; Qi had completely transformed from a boy into a young man.

Although her appearance has changed drastically, her charm remains.

"Really? I've grown quite a bit taller," Qi said with a smug smile.

Then the other person looked at Gon again.

With the same sigh, I still remember several years ago when Gon, also a teenager, came to find Qi, and that stubborn expression for his friend seemed like it was just yesterday.

"Young Master Gon has grown up quite a bit."

Gon scratched his head and laughed a few times.

Then his gaze fell upon the Three-Tails.

Who is this?

"My name is Three-Tails, and I have three tails."

Three-Tails Fox chuckled, shaking its fox ears and turning to the side, its three fox tails swaying behind it.

Demonic Beast.

That's quite rare.

Qi also said, "This is my friend."

97

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the three prepared to go inside.

After thinking for a moment, Zebro said, "The eldest young master returned a few days ago, and he brought a friend with him."

Qi waved his hand casually, not caring at all.

Just as I was about to push the door open, Three-Tails was the first to jump out.

"I'll push! I'll push!"

She had just been on the sightseeing bus when Gon told her about his first time here.

I'd heard of this door before, and I was very curious about the sound it made.

"All right."

Qi didn't care and let the Three-Tails push it.

Hearing this, Zebro's eyes widened as he stared at the Three-Tails.

The Three-Tails looks like a five or six-year-old child. Although its identity may be Demonic Beast, it does not conceal its childlike behavior. Its appearance, way of speaking, and outward behavior are all like a child's.

But considering he's the young master's friend, perhaps there's something special about him.

Maybe we can push open a door?

The moment the idea came to mind, the Gate was pushed open completely.

Zebro's eyes widened, his mouth agape, as he stared in astonishment at the scene.

It was pushed open completely.

A small child.

The Three-Tails, having easily pushed the Gate open, clapped its hands, pursed its lips, and said, "What? It's not heavy at all."

I thought this door was something special, based on what Gon had told me before.

Gon smiled helplessly upon hearing this.

"I was very young back then, and I didn't know how to Nen ability."

"How many?"

"When I was twelve years old, I think."

Three-Tails Fox counted on its fingers and nodded.

That's indeed very small.

If we convert the Three-Tails's age to human years, she might still be a child, but when she was a fox, she had already lived for many years.

The Gatekeeper watched as the Gate closed, and the three of them chatted as they went inside.

Inside, there is a Dense Forest, and a paved road runs from the entrance through the Dense Forest and into the distance.

Upon entering the Dense Forest, the Three-Tails almost instinctively went into a state of hiding and concealing its presence.

Kiy seemed to sense something and grinned.

"Can you feel it? Someone is waiting for us."

I felt it.
