*A heavy, suffocating quiet filled the Zoldyck dining hall as the family assembled. Killua sat slumped beside Kalluto, Milluki positioned next to Illumi, while Mother flanked Grandfather. Silva presided from the head of the table. Servants moved with spectral efficiency, placing plates and pouring drinks: cola for Killua, cider for Kalluto, soda for Milluki, and a dark, rich wine for Illumi, Mother, Grandfather, and Silva himself.* *A veneer of calm lay over the room, but beneath it thrummed a wire of tension. Grandfather and Silva already knew the truth I had begun to suspect: a spy was inside the mansion. This intruder was a master of concealment, their presence and Nen so perfectly hidden that even our family's most attuned senses could not detect them.*
