Chapter 109: The King Piece Is Moving

.......

And so, a few months passed since the job at Yorknew city, a month of research and waiting until the time comes.

You see, a while ago, Yasuo went to Greed Island and brought something special. The queen of the chessboard with the goal of getting the queen, a specific special card, and time have come for the king to come for the queen...

And so Yasuo could be seen relaxing in his house in the Kakin empire with Morena and Alluka which is where he spends most of his time leaving Paku back at the Zoldyck's property alone.

Except for this time as he let her go not long ago letting the seed grow until he plucks the fruit out.

Of course since in her point of view, she has done nothing yet, he told her he will require her assistance later and she have to comply at the cost of letting her go earlier.

Until he received a call and interestingly, it's from Killua who happened to be in Greed Island with Gon.

They have faced a certain obstacle in their little adventure of collect all the restricted cards completing the game.

"Tsezguerra, what's going on? Why didn't the quest activate?" Asked Gon confused.

Tsezguerra shook his head confused as well, "I don't know, usually the quest becomes available once we use accompany card to transport to Soufrabi yet nothing happened this time. The only solution I see is visiting the pirates and talking to them."

Killua nodded agreeing then the four went towards the lighthouse with the last member being Biscuit, the pirates' den. After having a 'peaceful' conversation with the pirates, they were allowed to meet their leader, Razor, one of the game masters.

And well, after talking to Razor for a while, what they heard was astonishing to them, "The quest was completed a long time ago, that's all I can say, the rest is for you to find out."

That forced them to use certain spell cards to locate who has the card named 'Plot of the beach'.

A card only one person can have and the last card needed before the contest for card 0 starts but there is an unmoving barrier stopping them from solving the last puzzle to finish the game.

Imagine Killua's surprise when he saw the player's name, finding that who has the card is named Yasuo and while it could possibly anyone with the same name or a fake name, he still considered the possibility.

After all, people who are strong enough to finish the quest and assemble a team of 15 Nen users to do so are rare in between, and according to his estimation of the pirates and the game master's strength then the person has to be incredibly strong.

The change in Killua's expression didn't escape Gon who asked, "Do you know who is it?"

Killua shook his head unsure, "I don't know if it's really him or not but my brother has the same name and I can't confirm whether it's him since he didn't put his last name so I'm really not sure.

He has to be strong enough to finish the quest as well, he is a Zoldyck and I know he and Illumi spar frequently but I still prefer to investigate more to confirm who it is."

"You're not close to him? Or is he like your other brother?" Curiously wondered Gon.

Killua again shook his head refuting, "Nah, he's nothing like Illumi but he seems to like to stay alone as I rarely talk to him if ever and."

Before Killua can say anything else, he felt a mild headache that made his face twitch for a split second but he just attributed it to all the training they've done for the past months and said seeing Gon's concerned look.

"It's nothing, he probably just likes to stay alone so I don't know much about him."

Tsezeguerra looked like he is contemplating a few things after hearing the name and what Killua said then wondered, "Your brother is the 3-star hunter Yasuo Zoldyck right?"

That strangely seems to surprise Killua asking, "Wait, he is a 3-star hunter?"

That seemed to surprise Tsezeguerra as he wondered, "He is your brother and you don't know? His picture and name are in the hunter's database so I thought you'd know though not much is known about him."

He then continued, "If so then I can scatter all the other players of our group through the Island to search for information to really know whether he has been here..."

All of this was happening while Biscuit was just spectating from the side not saying anything especially after hearing the particular name.

A name she knows well so instead of helping in the search she said she has something to do and will come back soon.

And so the days passed with several players looking for the same information across the Island.

Tsezeguerra provided them with Yasuo's picture and set them for the goal of questioning every friendly player on the Island.

And well, it appears that finding whether it's actually Yasuo Zoldyck who has the card is easier than expected, and several players have seen him only a few years ago at Soufrabi while some of them saw him not long ago hanging around the Island.

There is something Yasuo knows about cards on Greed Island if one exited the game the card he has will remain in his book for a while after that.

But if that certain player didn't return to the game after a particular time limit, the card will disappear from his book and will again be available in the game so Yasuo made sure to enter the game once in a while.

As for how so many people were actually able to see him, well, it's quite simple, he wanted to be seen, after all, he didn't get the queen back then for anything and it would be such a waste if the king didn't manage to find him.

And so, only after investigating everything they might need did Killua and Gon decide to contact him so Killua called him once they exited the game as all the Zoldycks have each other's numbers.

The phone started vibrating as Killua waited patiently for his brother to answer trying to hide his nervousness which Gon noticed finding it weird for Killua to have such a reaction, "Are you okay? If you don't want to talk to him then I can do so instead."

Killua shook his head insisting on being the one to talk, "No, I have to be the one to talk to him, I don't know if he'll help us if you ask so its better this way, and don't worry, I'm okay, I'm just nervous because I never talked to him."

Before the conversation can go any further, the phone stopped vibrating signifying the call was answered and before Killua can say anything, Yasuo on the other line answered first, "Killua? Calling me huh that's rare so what do you need?"

Killua took a deep breath before saying, "I need a favor."

"Oh, do tell, what is it?" Wondered the voice from the other line.

"I want to help a friend complete a game... Greed Island and I found you have the last card we need..." Explained the young Zoldyck hoping for a positive answer.

The voice from the other line seemed surprised as he asked, "Oh, does that mean you collected all the other necessary cards?"

"No... but we're the closest to finishing the game. We only need three cards, one is the one you have while the other one, we're not far from getting it. As for the last one, we think we need to have all the other cards for it to be available."

"Hmm, interesting, I will meet you in the game later, I will text you the address of the meeting so be on the lookout for that." He then hanged up not giving them a chance to respond.

"That was easy, I really thought he'd refuse from your description of him." Remarked Gon.

Killua nodded agreeing, "Yeah, it was too easy, it's likely he'll want a card if we win though I'm not sure.

But I think Biscuit does know something that's why she left though I'm not sure where she went, we just have to wait for her to come back."

Gon looked puzzled asking, "She does? how do you know?"

Only now did a smile resurface on Killua's face, "Why did you think she left? Of course to do something she finds necessary and this is just an assumption but I think it's related to my brother.

She must know something about him or well, she just has something to do... Anyway, let's go back and get the other card while we still have time."

By the end of his talk, his tone turned cheerful... cheerfulness that seems to affect the other kid besides him as Gon yelled in anticipation, "Right! Right! We're on the brink of finishing the game!"

Though a disappointing look surfaced on his face a second later, "It's too bad we're not the one who finished the quest. I think that's what dad planned for me... for me to have fun with a challenge... Just like Razor said, Dad told him not to go easy on me but now it doesn't matter since we won't face him anyway..."
