Listening to Kevin's words, Light knew in his heart that the moment of choice and confrontation had arrived.

In fact, he had made up his mind ever since he obtained the Prophecy Poem and helped Kevin and the others.

Moreover, he had personally witnessed Kevin's amazing abilities, which were in no way inferior to his daughter's prophetic abilities.

I remember when he was at Youkexin, some of his gang members got into a conflict and were seriously injured.

Those injuries were extremely serious and, by all accounts, incurable; his men were destined to be crippled.

However, the small potion Kevin produced worked miraculously, easily solving these problems.

Furthermore, to express his gratitude, Kevin specially prepared a health-boosting and restorative medicine for Light.

Light would never forget the wonderful feeling he had after drinking that vial of medicine.

Since then, he felt as if his energy had returned to that of someone in their twenties or thirties.

The chronic ailments he had developed from years of working in the underworld were gradually alleviated, or even completely disappeared, without him even realizing it.

This is absolutely incredible.

He knew in his heart that these problems could not be solved by modern medical technology, nor could they be eliminated by a tube of ordinary medicine; they must contain a magical power like his daughter's prophetic ability.

From that moment on, Light became even more determined in his decision.

Kevin continued, "To be honest, I really don't understand why you'd be willing to take such a huge risk to help us. Especially after you know how ruthless and powerful those who are hunting me are, it's even more perplexing."

"And if I'm not mistaken, you seem to know Pairo and Rosana somewhat. Especially today, you seemed to have known all along that Kurapika would be coming, and you were looking forward to his arrival. Why is that?" Kevin asked, his eyes burning with curiosity.

He desperately needed to know the truth, otherwise he couldn't give the other party full trust.

If he couldn't trust Light, the framework of his newly conceived plan would be unable to include him.

Given his abilities, he doesn't necessarily need Light.

However, Light had offered him help and expressed very clear goodwill, which his conscience could not allow him to ignore.

Everyone helps me, and I help everyone.

Over this period of time, the two sides have established a certain foundation of trust. Moreover, in the circle of non- Nen user, Kevin doesn't know many people he can trust.

Light took a deep breath, slowly pulled a piece of paper from his pocket, and handed it to Kevin.

"Hmm?" Kevin asked, puzzled, as he took the paper.

The paper looked like a page torn randomly from Notebook, but Light treasured it, carefully pulling it out of his inner pocket.

"Dad, you still kept it?" Nion exclaimed happily when she saw the paper.

Light smiled and gently patted his daughter's head, "This is your precious gift to Daddy."

"Hehe." Nion smiled sweetly.

Kevin was even more puzzled. He turned his attention back to the unfolded paper in his hand.

It's actually a poem?

As I read it, word by word, sentence by sentence.

Kevin looked confused.

Kevin looked serious.

Kevin sat upright.

The shock in his eyes became increasingly apparent.

"Hiss—there are such Nen ability in the world?" Kevin exclaimed inwardly, the wonders of this world far exceeding his imagination.

He had heard of prophetic Nen ability from Biscuit before, but the prophecies Biscuit had described were only temporary and required a considerable price to perform, and their content was also subject to many restrictions.

Although it's quite impressive, it has significant flaws.

The purpose of mentioning this case was primarily to warn Kevin and his companion that they should be cautious in battles between Nen user.

You need to let your mind wander and think.

They were also told not to build Nen ability with obvious weaknesses, because if they were caught, it would be extremely fatal.

But this prophetic ability is simply too outrageous.

The Prophecy Poem in his hand was not difficult to understand, especially after Kevin combined it with his own experience, it became even clearer.

No wonder, if this Prophecy Poem served as a guide, all of Light's previous actions would make sense.

At that moment, Light handed her another piece of paper.

Kevin looked up at Light and took the paper.

It turns out to be a record of prophecies from last month, with some of the content changed.

"I see, so this prophecy can be changed?" Kevin suddenly realized.

When he first looked at the first piece of paper, he assumed that the prophecy was a predetermined fact and could not be changed, because it recorded events that had occurred this month and were already confirmed.

But upon seeing this record from last month, he noticed something amiss.

In other words, this prophecy can not only prevent certain events from happening, but also foresee them and allow for changes. What kind of severe Restriction would this require?

This is beyond imagination!

If it weren't for maintaining his image, Kevin would have loved to rack his brains and think things through carefully.

Kevin tidied up the papers, handed them back to Light, rested his chin on his hands, and fell into deep thought.

Light looked at Kevin without saying a word, simply waiting quietly.

"Indeed, even in the realm of superpowers, my daughter's ability is truly rare."

Light secretly pondered this, which made him even more delighted, because it meant he had a more significant bargaining chip in his hands.

Moreover, she was his daughter, with whom he had a deep connection; they were naturally on the same side.

He would definitely be worried if he were dealing with a greedy and unscrupulous person.

He understood the principle that possessing a treasure is a crime.

But after this period of contact, and with the guidance of the prophecy, he has determined that Kevin is a moral and principled person.

That's why his bargaining chips are more valuable, allowing him to confidently choose to cooperate with Kevin and be completely honest with him.

He also believed that by working with Kevin, he would receive the compensation he deserved, as well as adequate protection and respect.

That's why he gave up the gangster route; it was too dangerous, full of deceit, treachery, ruthlessness, and violence.

At this moment, Kevin appeared calm and collected on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.

He never expected something like this to happen.

There is no doubt that Light's confrontation was a sign of his trust in him and also indicated that the other party wanted to establish a deep cooperative relationship with him.

Just as the Prophecy Poem suggested, he made the right choice.

Kevin was clear about his abilities and goals, and he was indeed confident that he could lead the Nosra Family to greater heights and a brighter future.

Although his current strength is insufficient to achieve all of this, it does not prevent him from having his own views on the current state of the so-called "top of the gang".

After a period of intense thought, Kevin gradually sorted out his ideas and made a decisive decision.

He looked at Light across from him and said, "I can feel your sincerity; to be honest, it exceeds my expectations."

Kevin smiled helplessly, then his expression turned serious. "I do have some ideas and goals now, but achieving them requires a professional team and the support of certain forces."

We can discuss the specifics of how to cooperate in more detail later.

Light nodded. "Of course, would you like Nion to do a divination for you?"

Upon hearing this highly appealing proposal, Kevin remained silent for a moment.

Then, suppressing his curiosity, he shook his head. "Such an ability is indeed beyond my imagination."

However, the more powerful and difficult to understand Nen ability, the more likely it is to come with unknown costs.

These costs could even be life-threatening, so you'd better not let your daughter make prophecies until I figure it out."

Kevin's words were not alarmist; in his view, such powerful prophetic abilities were simply too bizarre.

This must be handled with caution.

"What?! How could this be?" Light panicked and asked anxiously.

"Don't rush to conclusions. Let me see. It seems you only discovered your daughter's ability last month. You probably haven't let her make predictions many times, have you?" Kevin asked.

"Only twice, on these two pages you're looking at," Light quickly replied.

Kevin nodded. "That's good. Even if there are problems, they shouldn't be too serious."

After all, such a powerful and exaggerated Nen ability could not be treated lightly.
