No Two Suns in the Sky; I Alone Reign Above and Below

"Roy; Zoldyck..."

"[Mental Morphine] Guzman..." Roy located Guzman's position using [Targeted Tracking Technique], canceling other perspectives and focusing his Nen on the green-haired Sun-Earring Boy. This time, he finally saw him clearly.

The so-called "Substitute Death Doll" was actually a thick "Thread of Causality" that went straight into the void through Guzman's spirit, its end nowhere in sight. Following this Thread of Causality, Roy's pupils suddenly dilated, and just as he was about to fly off the Lake Center Island...

Consciousness followed the gaze, and with a "snap," it snapped.

In his mind's eye, Roy seemed to see a river, like a serpent of the world, encircling the entire continent, both isolating it from some kind of spying from the Dark Continent, and seemingly... protecting the Lake Center Island from harm, subtly reminding him of danger!

In a daze, Roy vaguely realized something, looked down at Guzman, and squinted, saying, "So you come from that continent."

As soon as he finished speaking, the group of private soldiers, including the old brigade commander Grant, and even Benjamin on the throne, Hui Guo Rou focused their gazes on Guzman.

The green-haired Sun-Earring Boy's origins were exposed, so he simply stopped pretending, clasped his hands together, and silently murmured, "Truth above..."

Straighten his back and say in a deep voice, "That's right."

"I am the great True Creator, the source of all manifestation, and my most devout and humble servant, who has descended to earth by divine decree to preach and eradicate heresy, and among them, 'you' are."

"And the Zoldyck behind you!"

An uproar!

Guzman's sudden candor was like a bombshell dropped into a calm pond!

The sudden roar sent chills down the spines of the old brigade commander Grant, and the others... As Benjamin's Hui Guo Rou guard, always ready to die for him, and possessing Nen Ability, he astutely grasped the "continent" Roy and Guzman were referring to!

What is "that continent"? Only the Dark Continent! The continent that their King and Prince Beyond would lead the entire nation of Kakin to ascension! And look... right there at the dock adjacent to the coast, beside the palace, the Black Whale is being built day and night under supervision?

Grant and the others stared at Guzman with bewilderment, their minds replaying the information they had gathered about the [True God Cult]. Some of the strange points... they seemed to be able to articulate them clearly, even... match them up one by one.

Grant glanced at Benjamin again, Hui Guo Rou silently.

The One King of the Kakin Empire was only surprised for a moment before regaining his calm and dignified demeanor, as if he had foreseen everything and was used to it.

But as he turned his gaze away from Guzman, he glanced at Roy and said, "This isn't your home, Roy." Benjamin, the "Twice- Zoldyck Hui Guo Rou," narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "You think you can just come and go as you please without even saying hello?... Are you taking yourself too seriously?"

Benjamin; Hui Guo Rou... Roy looked down at the One King, recalling the various descriptions of him in the original work. Compared to the Second Prince's "madness," the Third Prince's "shrewdness," and the Fourth Prince's "pure evil," this unassuming prince, simply sitting there, was a force to be reckoned with—an army, a nation, even... a world.

The invisible Nen Qi emanating from his body was as domineering as Silva's, yet possessed a touch more of a kingly air than Silva's.

Clearly, his Nen Ability [Inheritor of the Stars] allows him to simultaneously encompass the Nen power and abilities of 14 private soldiers, which undoubtedly gives him immense confidence.

Upon closer inspection, he noticed a peculiar "Nen Beast" crouching behind him, resembling a "fly." As Roy's Nen Qi surged, he heard Little Gold's call, a creature belonging to the same "rank" as when he first met Gold and summoned [Feicha's Parrot]...

Roy clasped his hands together and silently uttered a title, saying, "Praise be to the sun! Your Highness, please understand, no matter how vast the world is, sunlight can always reach it..." The Sun-Earring Boy earnestly replied, "My presence here is not my fault; the fault lies with the sun, the fault lies with the sunlight..."

"Hehehe..." Benjamin; Hui Guo Rou, his fingers tapping the handrail, stopped abruptly, and he laughed—a rare laugh, deep and thunderous, "thump thump~" exploding in the void, accompanied by the domineering aura flowing within him, which reverberated violently!

"The sun?" Benjamin, Hui Guo Rou confidence rising, stared at Roy's eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"

There can only be one sun in the sky. A thousand years have passed. Since life and thought came into existence, there has only ever been one sun!

"Roy; that Zoldyck, could he have used the [sun] as a [Visualization object] to condense [his] [spiritual practice]?" Old Brigade Commander Grant suddenly realized something, and Benjamin looked up at Roy in shock.

Beside him, Guzman lowered his eyes, his eerie pupils brimming with murderous intent. He suddenly thought of Jager; the Zoldyck, truly... birds of a feather flock together, all arrogant scoundrels whose audacity would frighten even the gods!

All eyes converged, instantly shifting from Guzman to the person in mid-air...

Roy, expressionless, glanced at Benjamin, his pupils seemingly igniting two suns, and said Youyou, "There's nothing to be certain of."

The Sun-Earring Boy's silver hair cascaded down like a silver river, with a few strands at the ends faintly revealing dazzling gold. He reached out and plucked a sliver of Moonlight, saying calmly, "I am the only one worthy of respect in heaven and on earth. I am the sun, and the sun is me, past, present, and future!"

"Boom!" A thunderclap boomed in the dead of night... Guzman jerked his head up, glaring dangerously at Roy, and shouted Hui Guo Rou to Benjamin, "Your Highness, you saw it, didn't you? He said it himself!"

"The source of Nen user's power comes from their mind. The fact that he dares to say that means that's what he really thinks!"

The old brigade commander Grant and his group of private soldiers Hui Guo Rou in front of Benjamin, their faces grim.

For these individuals, the only sun in the world can only be Benjamin, and must be Benjamin; otherwise, they, these private soldiers chosen by the [Inheritor of the Stars] and ready to appear at any time to die, would have no reason to exist.

In short, you're the sun? Then what are we "stars"?!

Silence is the palace at this moment.

As Guzman's words fell to the ground,

Benjamin; the Hui Guo Rou, abandoning its languid demeanor, suddenly reached out and swept its hand towards the sky.

A vast and pure torrent of Nen Qi surged towards Roy from the graveyard, however...

Before the "Nen Flow" could get close, Roy traced the source of the [Substitute Death Doll] and Marking Guzman with [Targeted Tracking Technique]. He immediately withdrew his "Nen" and turned his attention back from the Kakin Empire.

"Bang!" The eye disappeared, and "Nen Flow" lost its target, rushing straight to the top of the palace, instantly opening a huge hole in it, revealing the bright moon high in the sky, eternally existing...

The old brigade commander Grant, and his group of private soldiers exchanged a sigh, then glanced discreetly at Benjamin, Hui Guo Rou, and Guzman... This One King of the Kakin Empire, and the Servant of God projected from the [god's] realm specifically tasked with eliminating Roy, looked up at the deep night, the Moonlight ethereal... and fell silent...

[remove-...]

[Hint: A "Potential Believer" witnessed your battle with Hisoka and Moro and developed admiration for you, eager to learn "Nen Ability" from you and is eager to Officialization.]

"Time:..." As night deepened, the Big Ben atop the Pale Church dome tolled, reminding Roy that the night had officially entered its latter half. The Sun-Earring Boy forcibly pulled his thoughts back from the scenes he had witnessed in the Kakin Empire and its various corners, then glanced at Chrollo, Uvogin, Nobunaga, Pakunoda, Sarasa, and finally, the unsuspecting Shalnark hadn't managed to stop Chrollo, emerging from the various garbage heaps outside the courtyard. A slight smile played on his lips as he held a scripture and smiled gently at them, saying, "Praise the sun. Gentlemen, what brings you here?"

"For power." Chrollo placed his right hand on his chest and bowed solemnly.

"Damn it, that guy beat me to it!" Uvogin jumped out second, patting his chest and saying, "Priest, me too! I want to train with you and defeat Kastro!"

Nobunaga and Pakunoda, one next to Uvogin and the other to Chrollo, bowed slightly to Roy... Nearby, Sarasa slapped Shalnark on the back. "What are you all standing there for?"

Step forward and bend down.

Roy's Clone, [Taiyi], nodded with satisfaction. His empty hand glowed faintly, and he reached into the Moonlight, pulling out the "Ame-no-Murakumo Sword." He lightly tapped each of the group's shoulders twice...

Panel prompt.

[The "Potential Believer" Chrollo has been Officialization; "Power of Faith" +10...]

[The "Potential Believer" Uvogin has been Officialization, "Power of Faith" +8...]

[Nobunaga, Pakunoda, Shalnark have been Officialization, with "Power of Faith" +8 +8 +8...]

Finally, it's Sarasa... [Power of Faith +20]

Roy paused slightly, taking a deep look at the little girl with two golden ponytails swaying behind her. In the original story... the spiders only truly turned to the dark side after her death, and the cause and effect involved were incredibly profound!

"Get up, all of you. Stay here tonight, and continue your cultivation tomorrow morning," Roy said, his gaze sweeping indifferently over the various spies lurking in the shadows. Before speaking, he uttered a single word. "Get lost!"

"Footsteps... footsteps... the road..." Footsteps rose and fell in a chaotic rush, and finally...

Only the False High-Minded Belus, holding binoculars from the next block, exchanged a glance with Roy through his lenses. He then froze, standing motionless by the window like a statue, unable to recover for a long time...

"Boss," a trusted aide tentatively asked, "What do we do next?"

Belus remained silent for a long while, then let out a long, drawn-out sigh, "Doing nothing, and being unable to do anything."

Ultimately, the initial contact was too slow... and this slow start was like triggering a domino effect, causing every subsequent step, and indeed every step after that, to slow down...

The only saving grace amidst the misfortune was... "Fortunately, Chrollo and the others got into the church."

Belus sat back down at his desk, lit a cigar, and, amidst the hazy smoke, quietly consoled himself.

"Whoosh!" At that moment, the evening breeze rustled the curtains.

Chrollo and the others followed Roy into the church.

The weathered church doors creaked shut.

Kukuroo Mountain in the Republic of Padokea, the Zoldyck Family's stronghold.

Roy deactivated [Vision Sharing] and returned to his bedroom, where Tsubone was no longer there.

"Gurgle, gurgle..." After the old butler finished his report, he cleared away the dishes that evening and pushed the food cart downstairs... Like Gotoh, before going to bed, she glanced at the progress of the clothes the tailor was sewing for Roy. Passing by the third floor of the Butler Villa, Ge Di saw a golden high ponytail struggling to do squats in the corridor by the window.

Tsubone paused, then took another step, and as if possessed, walked over.

"It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?" With two pink ponytails hanging down her back, Tsubone's burly body was no less than that of a gorilla. He suddenly appeared behind Kurajing, his head touching the ceiling of the passage, casting a shadow that almost enveloped Kurajing's entire body!

The girl was engrossed in her work when she was startled by a sudden greeting.

He stood up, his calves aching, and turned around to see Tsubone. He quickly bowed and said, "Good evening, Steward."

The girl straightened up again, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and took a breath, saying, "I'll practice a little longer and then go to sleep."

"Why?" Tsubone suddenly asked.

Kurajing taken aback, and instinctively blurted out, "What... why?"

The old housekeeper looked down at her condescendingly and asked, "Why are you working so hard?"

"Isn't everyone working their butts off?"

"That's no excuse," Tsubone said, his old eyes, filled with the vicissitudes of life, seemingly able to see into the depths of the young girl's soul. "You've already Officialization, you're no longer an intern. There's no reason for you to work this hard anymore, especially... none of the other intern housekeepers are as dedicated as you are now."

Being an apprentice butler for the Zoldyck Family is undoubtedly the hardest job in the world.

Tsubone had seen people collapse from exhaustion, some become paralyzed from exhaustion, some break down from exhaustion, running out of the Zoldyck crying, and even... some fell ill from exhaustion, yet he still saw... a girl, a girl brought home by Young Master, who persevered and endured it all, and...

Even Officialization, there's still no sign of them stopping.

He looked at her intently and said.

Kurajing's blonde hair swayed in the wind. She lowered her eyes, remained silent for a long while, and then whispered, "Because I don't want to be left behind." The girl counted on her fingers, "Forget about Gotoh Wutong. He's been with the Young Master since childhood. Kastro, the second person to come up the mountain, didn't become a steward much earlier than me. Now I hear he's also working for the Young Master."

Kurajing bit her lower lip, raised her head, looked at Tsubone firmly, and said resolutely, "I also want to follow Young Master, even if it's just for one day."

Upon hearing this, Tsubone was momentarily dazed. Looking down at Kurajing, he vaguely saw his younger self, a little Tsubone who followed Jager around all day. After a long while, he came to his senses and looked at Kurajing with a quiet gaze, saying:

"I thought you were doing it for your tribe,"

"At first it was for the tribe, and now," Kurajing raised her fist and puffed out her chest, "It's for the Young Master, it's for the tribe!" "I believe in the Young Master,"

"You won't abandon me!"

Tsubone: "."
