Silva had no intention of stopping Killua from revealing Alluka's ability to Moses.
Because he understood that Killua was different from the others.
So for Killua only, suppression would only backfire.
From the moment Killua pulled out the needle himself, Silva had realized this.
This was also why Illumi couldn't insert a second needle into Killua's head.
"If it's this man… it's fine."
Silva stared at Moses on the screen and finally chose to trust his intuition.
After all, it was Killua himself who had chosen to reveal Alluka's ability to Moses.
This means that-
Even if they took measures now, there was no guarantee there wouldn't be a second or third time...
Unless they killed Moses outright and had Illumi manipulate Killua's memories again.
But as before-
If it happened once, it could happen again.
Even if they inserted another needle into Killua's head, there was no guarantee he wouldn't pull it out a second time.
If that happened, the situation would only worsen.
Besides...
Just killing Moses was already a question of feasibility, let alone the unimaginable cost they would have to pay.
After considering everything, Silva's conclusion remained the same: Suppression would only backfire.
Seeing that his father allowed Killua to reveal Alluka's ability, no matter how unwilling Illumi was, he could only swallow his frustration.
…
Inside the hall.
After listening to Killua's story, Moses deliberately showed an appropriate level of surprise.
Though his reaction wasn't entirely fake-
What truly shocked him was that the Zoldyck Family hadn't intervened to stop Killua from revealing Alluka's ability.
That was the real surprise.
"What an amazing ability."
Moses sighed in admiration, then deliberately let excitement show on his face.
Killua was stunned by this sudden and rich change of emotions.
"Killua, I'd like to talk to your father."
"Huh?"
Killua could no longer guess what Moses was really thinking at this point.
But he immediately complied to Moses's request. He stood up and walked towards the door, intending to call Silva over.
However, before he could reach the door, Silva walked in first.
Moses raised his eyes and looked at Silva.
Silva also looked at Moses.
The two people's gazes met in midair, and neither of them could judge the other's thoughts and ideas through their eyes.
Under Moses's gaze, Silva walked to the chair without changing his expression and sat down.
Moses looked at Silva and said straight to the point: "I've encountered a rather troublesome situation. Originally, I wanted to borrow Killua's Godspeed ability, but now, it seems there's a better option."
"You want to borrow Alluka's ability?"
Silva did not ask what the troublesome situation was. Instead, he went straight to Moses's intention.
Moses nodded without hesitation:
"Yes. I'll bear the risks after making the wish. I can guarantee that no matter what, it won't involve the Zoldyck Family."
At this point, Moses paused, his expression becoming particularly serious:
"In addition, as the Chairman of the Hunter Association, I promise you this… Once this matter is resolved, the Association and I will owe the Zoldyck Family a favor."
"…"
Silva fell silent upon hearing this.
Moses studied his expression closely, and Silva's face was as unreadable as still water.
If Silva agreed, that would naturally be the best outcome.
After all, if Killua used the 'Command' ability, Moses doesn't have to bear any cost.
And the favor Moses had promised...
In a sense, it was priceless.
No matter how you looked at it, the Zoldyck Family wouldn't be at a disadvantage.
But if Silva refused, then Moses would not have the audacity to insist.
Instead, he would quietly ask Killua to use the 'Command' ability to eliminate the Thermal Light Species in secret.
All of this was for one purpose-
To eliminate any obstacle that might interfere with killing Beyond.
So Moses had to do this.
Silva remained silent, and Moses didn't press further.
The hall suddenly became quiet.
Killua's gaze flickered between his father and Moses, but his mind was filled with mixed thoughts.
About a minute passed.
Then Silva suddenly asked, "What exactly is this 'troublesome situation' you mentioned?"
Instead of refusing directly, he inquired about the issue Moses wanted to resolve with the wish-granting ability.
In Moses's opinion, this reaction suggested that Silva was leaning toward agreement.
"Solve a Calamity from the Dark Continent, the Thermal Light Species."
Moses did not hide anything and told the truth.
When Silva heard this, his eyes flickered slightly.
The name of the Dark Continent...
Zoldyck Family was no stranger to it.
'So-'
'Should I agree or refuse?'
'Should I bet something on this extraordinary man?'
Silva fell into thought once more.
…
That night.
For the first time in a long while, an outsider sat at the Zoldyck Family's dinner table.
Moses sat at the guest seat and felt somewhat at ease.
He didn't have high hopes as to whether Silva would agree.
But fortunately, Silva had agreed.
'Once the Thermal Light Species is dealt with, we can focus entirely on hunting Beyond...'
Moses swirled his wine glass absently, lost in thought.
In fact-
He had considered having Killua use the 'Command' ability to kill Beyond directly.
However, the thought vanished as quickly as it came.
Beyond had to die by his own hands.
If he relied on the wish-granting ability to achieve this...
Moses knew he would never be able to move forward again.
…
The next day.
With Silva's agreement on making a wish to solve the problem of the Thermal Light Species, Moses soon met Alluka.
No-
It's Nanika.
"Ai."
Nanika, whose facial features were dark and hollow, stared fixedly at Moses. His tone, which was always monotone in the past, carried an unusual weight this time.
Killua next to him was slightly stunned. This was the first time he had ever heard another tone in Nanika's speech.
Then-
Something even more shocking happened in front of Killua.
Nanika suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Moses, then kept backing away.
He didn't stop even when his back hit the wall, his feet still shuffling as if trying to retreat further.
'What… is going on?'
Killua, and even Silva and the others watching from the surveillance room, were all stunned.
