NOVEL NEXT Chapter 39: Zoldyck Family (1).
HxH World, Kokouro Montain.
In front of the Testing Gate an ominous presence appeared as any Hunter could see how dangerous it's aura is. The man advanced silently, a large cruel smile on his face. Zebro who saw him immediately alerted the mansion. He didn't even come out, he wasn't 'the real guard' after all.
Each of his step reflected profound understanding of Martial Art. Like those who only gods could use, his body, muscles were arranged in a mystical way. One could see:
'This is an expert among experts.'
He stopped in front of the Testing Gate, his cruel smile still on. He didn't even move, he gathered some air and simply blew with his mouth.
ALL THE GATES IMMEDIATELY OPENED UP!!
One could see that all the doors were even damaged.
He still marched slowly with his own pace, like he was barging into his own backyard.
He saw a big Dog, like a beast of hell, getting back by a few steps looking at him with had a threatning glare. The Man only smirked:
"Make your mind, little beast. Do you want to kill me or are you afraid of me?"
But by the end of the question, Zebro saw the Head of Mickey fall of:
"Too late, in your next life, flee when you need too."
He continued to slowly advance as all the recordings where exposed to the Attendants and the Family who was conveniently all here.
Four People were watching this with a solemn gaze. Silva spoke first:
"Strong, way too strong. I cannot even begin to fathom the limit of his strength."
All the younger members had bewildered faces as they never saw their father praise someone this much. Zeno Zoldyck had the same solemn expression:
"His eyes, they are dangerous. He doesn't actually see where he looks. He has probably 360 vision extended even to here. He's probably enjoying our surprise as we speak. What a monster!"
Illumi had the same expression he always had:
"Oy,oy…What should we do~?"
Maha who has been silent the whole time:
"I would like to say we need to flee. But if he is here, showing up like that…"
Zeno continued:
-It means he is not here to kill us. We are not even worthy opponent for him, after all."
Silva sighed:
"Kyouko you stay here. Flee with Killua and the others when you get the chance"
"Silva…and you..;"
The four of them faced the exit, crazed smiles on their faces saying at the same time:
"I want to try to kill this guy!!"
Marek continued his little play as he marched slowly into the residence.
'They finally moved, huh.'
He stayed in place as he inhaled the air to his lungs:
'Oh, poisoning the air from the get go.'
He immediately retracted the air as he stopped his breathing altogether:
'Well, that's a weakness I didn't know about. Poison vulnerability."
He lightly elevated his power level to counter the poison.
'They know I can see them, so they act swiftly and try to bluff me with their lip movement. Not bad!'
The four of them started permutating at high speed and stealth trying to analyze each aspect of their target. Marek nodded in approval:
'Good mentality, great decision making. Even if they are a tier weaker than Lucifer and Belzebub. I would rather fight the Satans all over again than to deal with these kinds of experts.'
'I can't feel their presence at all. The Zetsu, huh… Relying on my eyes too much could backfire.'
Marek suddenly smirked as two gigantic power orbs downed on him:
'Here it comes…The Probe.'
He dodged swiftly:
'I can't let you know how strong I am this easily, can I?'
The orbs exploded nearby, not even moving the monarch. In the blinding light of the explosion extremely needles moved at high speed in the direction of his head.
This ones he barely dodged.
'So the light of the explosion wasn't to probe, it was to allow this attack on my brain. Chilling. I wouldn't dare fight them even if I was two or three tiers above them.'
Suddenly he felt the ground under his feet start to move as bodies started growing from everywhere. They all were dressed as attendants, without a will, needles all over their body. Marek only narrowed his eyes:
'As I thought all those buried people are under Illumi's control. They stopped me here on purpose, knowing I won't escape. Being an Assassin is also discerning the persona of the Target. Good grief…'
Marek watched as all the corpse suddenly smile at him as they said:
"Say Cheese!"
They used simultaneously a stun grenade immediately blinding him on the spot!
They then all exploded one after another creating an earthquake shaking the whole mountain. An avalanche started on Kokouro Mountain!
In the seconds where Marek was blinded, he felt a swift movement in the air. Feeling the impending threat, he immediately activated his eyes again!
'To think you would get me to use my Sharingan! Zoldyck Family!!
He then dodged the attack on his throat made by the muscular hands of Silva Zoldyck!!
'Good! Good! But did you think…"
He immediately parried again as a concentrated purple orb pierced trough 'Silva Zoldyck''s body going for his heart!
'…My Sharingan wouldn't be able to see thought the poor man disguise of your puppets? Huh! Illumi Zoldyck! Silva Zoldyck!'
The orb missed exposing the real Silva to a counterattack, yet Marek only smiled without using this chance.
'Those bastards, they know I won't kill them, so they act cocky!'
The two finally met face to face, crazed face on one and the other. Their muscular frame facing one another like a painting of gladiators! His feline blue eyes against his three Star Tomoe Sharingan. His spiky long dark hair against his long smooth silver one!
They both started laughing in frustration.
Marek knowing that he had been outwitted.
Silva knowing that if his opponent had the slightest intention of killing him, he would be dead by now.
""You son of a bitch!!""
