Ch 30: Dinner with the Zoldyck's
"(y/n), let's go to the dining room to start our meal." Illumi invites me. He grabs my hand and runs to the dining room with me.
"(y/n), we've been waiting, please, have a seat." Silva says. One of the butlers pulls out a chair in front of me and pushed me back in once I sit in it.
"Is something going on?" I ask them. They seemed to be acting rather formal.
"We actually agreed to you being here because we wanted to talk to you about some things." Zeno says.
"We'll tell you now so that you don't have to wait any longer." Silva says.
"We've found out where Killua is and we want you to gather intel for us." Kikyo says.
"We want the butlers to prepare something in the meantime, so we want you to do their job while they're all doing something else." Silva says.
"So, what do you want me to do?" I ask.
"He's in a game called Greed Island. We bought a ring and a memory card for you to play the game." Zeno informs me.
"All we need is a console to plug these things in." Silva says.
"I know where you'll be able to find one, but you might not like who has it..." Illumi says.
"Who is it?" I ask. I kept asking questions. No matter how many questions I asked, I would have to do this anyways.
"The Phantom Troupe." Illumi says.
"T-the Phantom Troupe. But, if I do that, I'll have to join in order to get permission to use that box." I say.
"We know that, but we want you to join them to have more connections."
"Killua would hate me if he found out I was a part of the troupe."
"He doesn't have to know, we'll do anything to make sure no one knows that you're in the troupe during this mission."
One of the butlers hands me a box containing the memory card and the ring for the game.
"Your mission will start in a week, until then, you'll train so that you're prepared to face the people inside the game." Silva says.
"I've asked Hisoka to help you throughout all of this." Illumi says.
"You may not like the whole process, but you'll be rewarded, I promise." Silva says.
"Anyways, let's eat!" Kikyo says excitedly.
"Oh, and (y/n), you'll take an extra class learning about Greed Island."
"Okay."
We ate the rest of the time in silence. I was still contemplating all of the things I'd have to do to get information about Killua.
"Join the Phantom Troupe?" I ask myself after dinner. I got ready for bed and slipped under the covers.
"This is gonna be a long week." I whisper to myself before dozing off after the long day.
The next day came by in a flash.
"Hey, (y/n)?" I heard Avira calling out to me.
"Avira? Why are you in my room?"
"I think you have to get up now." He says. I groaned loudly and got changed as fast as I could. I had to skip out on eating because my alarm didn't go off. At least I got a full night of sleep.
"Time to start all of my classes." I say to myself before the rest of the day starts.
My classes went by in a flash. Illumi had to do something so my last new class got switched with his for today.
"Hello, I will be teaching you about Greed Island." A man with a very familiar voice said to me. He was facing in the opposite direction of me in a chair. The chair started to slowly turn around, only to reveal the one and only red-headed Hisoka.
"What are you doing here?" I ask him trying not to sound annoyed.
"Hmmm~, are you annoyed? Don't worry, only Illumi knows I'm here. His family put Illumi in charge of putting together this class for you~." He says.
"Why you?" I ask.
"Why? Well, because I know the most about what Killua is doing, that's why."
"I see. Then, tell me what you know so far."
"Okay then~. Killua is going to re-take the Hunter Exam. His goal is to get stronger and to collect all the cards so that Gon can beat the game first." Hisoka informs.
"So, you do know a lot. Tell me about in-game components." I tell him.
"Very well." Hisoka told me all about Greed Island. Throughout the rest of the classes with him, I was going to go over the things I've learned. Overall, there isn't much to the game itself.
"Illumi should be teaching me in five minutes, I should go." I tell Hisoka.
"Go, I'll see you again tomorrow~." Hisoka says creepily.
"Unfortunately." I mutter under my breath.
