What happens in Chapter 114 of "The Strongest Assassin of the Zoldyck Family!"? "The body of Kyler is gone. It may be in the killer's hands, or it... Read on to find out!

"The body of Kyler is gone. It may be in the killer's hands, or it may never be found again." "Ron, Nina is emotionally unstable right now. You should go ahead and tell us what you know," Knock said. Ron nodded. "After I reached the 200th floor of Heaven's Arena, I became targeted by some other contestants. At that time, Kyler-senpai gave me some guidance, which is why I didn't rush into applying for a match." "Since we lived next door to each other, and Nina is only slightly younger than me, we quickly became friends." "Kyler-senpai, after suddenly losing a match, left Heaven's Arena. Before he left, he entrusted Nina to me, asking me to take care of her. So, Nina has been living with me ever since." "I had to leave for a while, but I just came back recently." "I know Kyler-senpai had visited Nina several times. He was supposed to meet with her last night, but when I called a few times and got no answer, I realized something bad might have happened." "I didn't expect this to happen..." Ron sighed deeply. Knock asked, "Ron, do you know what Kyler was busy with?" "I'm not sure," Ron replied. Knock turned to Nina. "Nina, what about you? Your father has been back for a while now. Didn't he tell you about his future plans?" Nina lowered her head in silence for a moment before speaking. "My father only told me to work hard and try to get promoted to the 200th floor of Heaven's Arena as soon as possible. He wanted me to become a floor master." "It was his dream, one he couldn't finish, so he hoped I could complete it for him." "He didn't really talk about his own plans." "He told me not to worry about him and to focus on my own training. But I often hear other voices when my father called me, like a woman's voice." Knock's eyes flashed. "A woman's voice?" "Yes, I think so." Knock nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll find the killer as quickly as I can. You both need to be careful. Don't leave Heaven's Arena. The killer may target you as well." "Staying in Heaven's Arena will be safer." "By the way, if you remember anything, or if anything comes to mind, contact me immediately." Knock stood up. "My number is the same as the one I called you from earlier." With that, Knock left. Ron and Nina didn't immediately get up. Nina's eyes were even redder now, tears falling down her face. Ron gently patted her on the shoulder. After a long while, the two of them stood up and left the restaurant. Back in Ron's luxurious suite, they closed the door. A figure emerged from around the corner, looking toward Ron's suite door. It was Knock. Though Knock had already formed his conclusions, he still harboured some doubts about Ron and Nina. "These two brats... they shouldn't be a problem." After he felt he had done enough, he left. Later, at the Ding William family's headquarters, Knock went straight to Greed and Lust. "Lord Greed, Lord Lust," Knock greeted. Greed slightly raised his chin. "How's it going on your side?" he asked. Knock replied, "No issues. Kyler's daughter and the other kid are both weak. They won't be a threat to Lord Gluttony or Lord Sloth. They're even weaker than Kyler." "However, Kyler has done a good job training his daughter." "She might even surpass Kyler in the future." Greed tapped his fingers twice on the table. "I just received some information about Kyler's ability. His ability is called 'Synth Beast,' which allows him to combine humans and non-human creatures." "Once synthesized, the resulting being is a Synth Beast." "The Synth Beast obeys Kyler's commands and is very powerful." "Compared to a Nen Beast, but even stronger, assuming they are using the same amount of aura." "However, Kyler's ability has a major limitation." "One of the materials used to create a Synth Beast must be someone who is very close to him." "His wife, parents, daughter..." "Kyler previously created a Synth Beast using his wife, but it was destroyed." "Therefore, Kyler's purpose for returning to this city should be to use his daughter as one of the materials for a Synth Beast." "I got this information from Kyler's teacher. It's absolutely reliable." Knock frowned. "But from those two kids, I didn't see any signs of lying. It's not like they could deceive me, right? I have a lot of experience in this area." "Also, if Kyler wanted to use his daughter as material, why would he go to such lengths to train her?" "And why didn't he take her last time?" Lust thought for a moment. "That is indeed a point of suspicion." Knock continued, "Those two kids, Ron is at most E-level, and Nina hasn't even reached E-level. There's no way they could have beaten Lord Gluttony." "Even if Ron has someone behind him, that person couldn't be that strong." "If they were really strong, they wouldn't have let Ron come to Heaven's Arena alone." "Second, why go to such lengths to help Nina? Why risk going up against Gluttony, Sloth, and the entire mafia for her?" "That would be such a foolish thing to do." "By the way..." Knock recalled something. "I remember Nina saying that when she was talking to Kyler, she heard a woman's voice in the background. A lover, would Kyler possibly have one?" Knock looked at Greed. Greed nodded. "If the relationship is close enough, it could fulfil Kyler's ability requirements." Knock said, "That would explain it. Kyler still has a father-daughter relationship with Nina, so he doesn't want to use her as material. Instead, he found a lover." Lust looked at Knock, then at Greed. "Let's summarize everything." "Ron, Nina, and the two of them probably aren't involved." "One possibility is that it's connected to the Divine Heart Dojo." "The other possibility is that a hitman simply targeted us for the bounty." "Rage and Envy are already on their way." Lust said, "Once they arrive, we'll have four people." "That arrogant bastard refused our invitation. It's infuriating." "However, with four of us, we'll be enough." "We'll begin the investigation across the entire city." "Knock, do you have enough people from the Ding William family?" Knock's face showed some difficulty. "Lord Lust, I'm afraid not. The Ding William family has many people, but there aren't enough with sufficient strength. I suggest we hire some people from the outside." "Also, if we do that, the killer might send someone to infiltrate us." "It's essentially a trap." Greed gave Knock a glance, his eyes glinting. "That's a good idea." "Knock, arrange it." Knock nodded. "Yes, Lord Greed." Under Knock's arrangement, the hiring news quickly spread. Ron received a call from Knock. "Ron." "Knock-senpai." "We've started investigating the killer related to Kyler, but we have very few clues, so we need a lot of manpower. Do you and Nina want to join us?" "Is it dangerous?" "It will definitely be dangerous." "Then Nina might not be suitable. She's in a bad emotional state right now, hasn't fully developed her Nen ability, and is very weak. She's still Kyler's daughter." "That's true. So, what about you, Ron?" Ron was silent for a moment. He definitely wanted to go. He had already prepared to absorb the characteristics of the Underworld Mafia, so this would be a great opportunity. But Ron couldn't seem too eager. Otherwise, Knock would definitely suspect him. "Knock-senpai, Kyler-senpai did give me some guidance, but I've also been taking care of Nina. The relationship between Kyler-senpai and I isn't that deep." Knock raised an eyebrow slightly. "I understand. I forgot to mention, this is a paid job, not a free one. The payment is 4 million Jenny per week. Are you interested?" "Is there payment? Hmm, though... this seems a bit low, Knock-senpai." Knock chuckled. "This payment is based on strength. The stronger you are, the higher the pay. Once you're here, you can show us your strength. If it's good, the payment will increase. We won't treat you unfairly." "Knock-senpai, where should I go?" (t/n he really is a Zoldyck lol) Knock gave an address. --- The next day, Ron distributed most of his aura to Baki and Chii. As for himself, he kept his aura concealed, disguising himself as an E-level Nen user. But even so, Ron's actual strength wouldn't be weak. He just kept his aura restrained and dispersed. However, the other attributes of a C-level Nen user remained intact. Ron still carried his Rotten Life Blade. Even if he faced sudden attacks from C-level Nen users, like before with Gluttony and Sloth, Ron could withstand them, though only for a few attacks. ----------------------------------------- You can read up to 120 Advanced chapters!
