When Shiba regained consciousness, he quickly recalled what had happened before.
After learning from Miki that Alluga could communicate through dreams, Shiba acted decisively, found a safe place outside, and forced himself into a dream.
As a killer, saving energy and recovering quickly are required lessons. Silva fell asleep in minutes, and then... he didn't dream about anything.
The old father called Mi Ji, who didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you the same as mom? Mom also tried to sleep, but didn't dream of anything. Have you ever thought that it's daytime now and Aruga is not asleep? Of course you can't see him in your dream!"
Shiba: “…”
He choked up and could only say in a dry voice: "Have you told mom about Alluga?"
"Well, my mother would call every day to ask about Killua's situation, so I just said it."
Mi Ji said indifferently, "Killa has forgotten everything under the influence of big brother's mind pin. He is alive and kicking every day. Grandpa Maha has been watching him all the time, but he didn't find any trace of Alluka contacting Killua."
After hearing this, Xiba felt relieved: "I understand. Let me know when there is news."
Mi Ji curled his lips. Could it be that his old father wanted to dream in broad daylight but failed, so he called me?
Shiba waited patiently until nine o'clock in the evening. He went to bed early. Although he had taken a nap in the afternoon and was not sleepy at all, he was a top killer and he could force himself to sleep!
Then I really dreamed.
Shiba looked at the scenery around him, his eyes widened slightly.
This is a very beautiful and dreamy forest, with tall oak, maple and maple trees everywhere. Golden, crimson and light green leaves are flying everywhere, and from time to time, flower fairies like those in a fairy tale kingdom fly among the leaves.
There is a path covered with thick leaves under your feet, surrounded by bushes. Low vines and ferns extend along the roots of the trees, and unknown wild flowers bloom indiscriminately. The sun shines through the gaps between the leaves, and the mottled light and shadows sway slightly, as if adding a layer of hazy glare to the beautiful scenery in front of you. It is so beautiful.
Shiba didn't dare to act rashly. If he guessed correctly, his consciousness should have been affected by the telekinesis ability at this moment, and he should have entered the dreamland that Mi Ji mentioned.
According to Miqi, the dream was a golden forest, and Alka was playing with flower fairies in the forest, and would take the initiative to greet him when she saw him...
Just as Xiba was carefully observing his surroundings, suddenly a figure gradually appeared not far away.
Shiba tensed himself, but froze the next second.
It was his wife, Kijo.
There was something wrong with Kiju's eyes, and they had been replaced with electronic prosthetic eyes a long time ago. But in this dream, Kiju's black eyes returned to their original state, just as beautiful, unruly, and sharp as in Shiba's past memories. There was even a sense of loneliness and emptiness in the look he gave him.
Ji Qiu also noticed someone not far away, and when she looked closely, she found it was her husband Shiba.
But she didn't come closer, she just smiled and said, "Honey, you're here too, I..."
"I heard from Miji that you called him every day to ask about Killua's situation."
Silva knew that Kiju was doubting his identity. This was the instinct of a Nen user entering a strange Nen user's territory, but Silva didn't want to waste time fighting with Kiju, so he went straight to the point, "I'll go in first, you follow me."
Ji Qiu remembered the dream information that Mi Ji had mentioned, and immediately realized that the person in front of her was indeed her husband.
She bowed her head slightly, "Okay."
Shiba stepped cautiously into the forest. The sunlight was pouring down, and he could clearly see traces of light in the air, like a musical score composed of invisible notes, or like a stream flowing, extending deep into the forest.
Following the guidance of the light, Xiba came to a clearing in the forest.
As if he had broken through some barrier, the moment he entered this open space, he heard a lot of rustling sounds, as well as...
“Wow wow wow—”
And Alluka's crying.
Shiba stared at the scene in front of him stiffly.
Alluka was half-kneeling on the ground, holding something and comforting the other person in a low voice.
There were many flower fairies, elves, butterflies, dragonflies and other insects around, and there was also a beetle-shaped fairy who grabbed flowers and came over, trying to stop the person in Aruka's arms from crying.
"Don't cry, Nanica, I can't do it. It's just that the wish that Brother Keel made is too difficult...ah!"
Alluka saw Silva out of the corner of her eye, "Dad!"
Nanica moved her body and carefully poked her head out from Alluka's arms.
Silva's eyes widened. It turned out that Alluga was holding another Alluga in her arms. No, it was a child who looked like Alluga, but that child had two black holes on his face and a crescent-shaped mouth!
So it is Nanika?
Aluka was very happy. He stood up and said, "Dad, you're here! Eh? Didn't you say Mom is here too?"
Shiba said calmly, "Your mother is waiting for you outside, Aruga, what's going on?"
Alluga sighed. Even though they were only separated for a few days, the child already acted like a little adult.
"It's Nanica. Brother Gil said Nanica's ability is useless. The things that can be wished for are simple things. Nanica can't make wishes that really require miracles to appear..."
Shiba: “…”
He was a little shocked. According to the test of beating the enemy, Nanica's ability was really super strong! Even the most powerful enemy would be destroyed because of the forced rules. How could this be called chicken ribs?
But compared to these, Shiba wanted to know something else.
"Alluka, did you leave and beat the enemy on your own?"
Yaluga nodded and shook her head: "Nanika said she wanted to go find her uncle, so we came out."
Shiba: “…”
He was shocked again. Uncle? Where did this uncle come from? Did Ji Qiu have a brother?
Shiba asked cautiously, "How did you find the so-called uncle?"
Alluka: "Nanica said that the aura of my uncle was as obvious to Nanica as light in the darkness, so we went directly to him."
Shiba: “…”
He was shocked again! He suddenly realized one thing, Alluka was his and Kijo's child, but Nanica was a disaster brought back from the Dark Continent by the ancestors of the defeated enemies. Maybe the uncle Alluka mentioned was Nanica's relative in the Dark Continent! !
Oh my god! It was already difficult for the enemy to suppress the commotion caused by the test of Nanika and hide the secret of the rope man, and now there is an uncle of Nanika in front of him...
Xiba took a deep breath and asked in a gentle tone, "Then is this dream in front of you the ability of your uncle?"
Alluka tilted her head: "No, it's my uncle's ability."
Uncle’s brother, he should also call him uncle, right?
Shiba: “…”
He was so shocked that he was a little numb. It turned out that there were not just one uncle but two.
"Oh, right, dad." Alluka pulled Nanica hard, and said to Silva like a child showing off a treasure: "This is Nanica, she is my and Killua's sister! Dad, you and mom don't hate Nanica, she is very good, she is also a family member!"
Shiba really wanted to say what the hell is this!
But thinking that the two uncles of the child with three holes in front of him might be watching him from the dark, he tried to calm down, "Nanika? My mother and I have never really seen this child. Oh, and what about the two uncles? I want to meet them."
Alluka didn't notice that Silva had evaded his question, and he answered subconsciously, "My uncle is playing games. Didn't my eldest uncle go to our house?"
Sheba:!!!
His heart was in his throat, and he used up all his strength to force himself to speak in a calm tone: "Ah, are we almost home? Then we must entertain him well. Is he coming to visit?"
Even his speech was a bit incoherent.
His children are all at home!! With only his great-grandfather at home, can he stop the powerful enemy from the Dark Continent?
Yalujia was a little embarrassed: "My uncle said that my eldest uncle is short of money and wanted to ask our family for some living expenses..."
Shiba was delighted at first. Asking for money is a good thing! Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem!
But then I started to have some doubts. A disaster that might come from the Dark Continent came to beat up the enemy just to get some living expenses? Who would believe it?!
Silva tried to stay calm. He thought carefully about what Alluka had just said and suddenly asked, "Who is Brother Gil? What is his wish? Even Nanica can't satisfy it?"
When talking about making a wish, Nanika started to shed tears again.
Wuuuu, she was rejected!
Alluka was also quite frustrated: "Yeah, Brother Gil said that he wanted a planetary map. He said that the current world map is incomplete based on celestial calculations, and there must be unknown lands. He also talked about the eleven zodiac signs and astrology... Anyway, Nanika and I don't understand Brother Gil's wish..."
Not to mention achieving it.
"He also said that as a universal wish-granting machine, Nanica is not as good as the Holy Grail because the wishes that Nanica can fulfill are limited to human consciousness. He said that humans are not the masters of the world. What he wants to pursue is mystery..."
Although Alluga was young, he had a good memory. Even though he didn't understand what Kirshtalia said, he memorized it all.
After all, this is the first wish that Nanika cannot fulfill!
"Mom and Dad, the test you did was wrong. Nanika's wish is not omnipotent! Nanika and I patted our chests and said that we could make any wish, but the result was really embarrassing!"
Alluka complained to her father.
Shiba: “…”
Alluka didn't understand what these words meant, but Silva understood about 70% of them and began to feel frightened.
He was about to ask more questions when he heard Alluka complaining again.
"And my parents' conclusion about the failure rule of coercion was also wrong. My uncle did not agree to Nanika's coercion."
Nanica nodded beside him: "Wrong! Wrong!"
——I didn’t get to eat any delicious fruit. I’m so depressed!
Shiba was surprised at first, then he hesitated for a few seconds and said tactfully: "Maybe your uncle's life form is different from that of ordinary people."
A look of admiration that Silva was familiar with finally appeared in Alluka's eyes.
"Dad is so awesome! He guessed it right away!"
Nanica nodded and said, "Bulk! Bulk!"
"My uncles are all over the floor!" Aluka was sad again, "It's a pity that he said that mom and dad can't learn it..."
"If mom and dad learn this, Nanikan won't have to be locked up anymore, and can play with brother Killua!"
The child's voice was innocent, but to Shiba, the request from his son was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
"Dad, you really can't learn it? Try a little harder and give it a try!"
Shiba: “…”
