Cordis had never expected to run into Illumi while taking a casual stroll.
There was probably no greater happiness in the world.
Faced with Cordis's excitement,
Illumi was noticeably much calmer.
That morning, Hisoka had told him about a restaurant with excellent food and urged him to visit when he had time.
He had not been interested at first.
But while resting, he had started to feel hungry.
As luck would have it, he remembered the restaurant Hisoka had mentioned that morning and suddenly found himself interested.
He threw on some clothes and headed over.
The moment he arrived, he spotted Cordis lurking outside the restaurant, doing who knew what.
His first thought was that the guy might be there to rob it.
At the same time, he regretted that the restaurant had already closed so early.
He looked around and found that practically every business nearby was closed.
Just as Illumi was considering heading back,
Cordis turned his head toward him.
Seeing this, Illumi asked expressionlessly,
"Pai Pai?"
It was as though those words had activated some magical skill of Cordis's. The moment Illumi spoke, little pink hearts began floating around Cordis.
For a while, Illumi had even believed that those floating pink hearts were Cordis's Nen Ability.
"Illumi! Illumi! You came here too!"
Like a little rabbit that had spotted a carrot, Cordis kept circling around Illumi.
Wherever Illumi went, he followed.
Along the way, Cordis kept telling strange, corny jokes, hoping to cheer Illumi up.
Unfortunately, Illumi showed no reaction to any of them.
At most, he offered a brief "Mm" or two.
That left Cordis feeling a little sad.
Even the little hearts floating around him dwindled.
Naturally, Illumi noticed Cordis's low spirits too.
He had no idea why, and his large eyes filled with confusion.
