Illumi was a little annoyed at Aki's reaction

- You shouldn't be happy...

Aki was too happy to listen to Illumi, but still his words confused him

- why not? I have a family now...!

Illumi's expression face became a little more serious

- Because we are not simple family. The main business of our family is to kill. So we kill for living, and so do I. We are assasins. So don't think that we will swaddle you and spoil you.

Aki looked at Illumi, not taking his words seriously

- wait you're an assasin?

Illumi just nodded in response

But this did not scare the boy, on the contrary, he became even more exited. And now he understood why Illumi was so cold.

- My new familly is so cool!

Illumi was a bit taken aback from kid's reaction,he expected fright, or hesitation.. but he definitely did not think that this would make the child even happier.

- whatever...

Illumi watched the kid for few more seconds before turning away and walking away

- follow me then, little brother...

Aki was a little confused for a second when Illumi started to leave. Then he returned to reality and quickly began to follow him.

The act follows Illumi, and thinks about his new family.. He's wondering what they're like? Still, he thought Illumi was exaggerating and just trying to scare him. His family can't be that strict.. How many brothers and sisters does he have? What are their parents like? He was happy, but still scared. He wanted to ask a lot of questions, but he continued to follow Illumi In silence, afraid to irritate his new older brother.
He also wondered if Illumi was a good older brother, well, most likely yes. But he still wasn't sure. While he was following Illumi, he sometimes stole few glances at Illumi's emotionless face. He was wondering why Illumi was so emotionless, Don't all people feel emotions? Or is he just hiding it well? He wanted to find out what was behind that emotionless mask...

It took about twenty minutes, and now they finally got there, the Zoldyck Estate. The place was big and beautiful, and even gave off a vibe of mystery. The boy was surprised, he found this place very beautiful. And he was pleased with the fact, that this was now his new home. Aki continued to quietly follow Illumi inside the manor. He noticed butlers and servants passing by.. boy was still amazed.

Suddenly Illumi stops in a long corridor, the boy also stopped looking at Illumi, confused.

- I have to go.. I have things to do. Go talk to your new big brother Killua and he'll explain everything to you... he is in this room

Illumi said and pointed at one of the rooms in the hallway.

- w..wait you're leaving? Where..? What happened?

Aki asked in a worried tone in his voice, not wanting Illumi to leave yet.

- none of your business. Do as I say.

Illumi said coldly, turned away and started to leave..

- ...Goodbye..?

The boy said as he watched Illumi walk away, moving away from him and disappearing from his sight leaving his alone...
Ak sighed, not understanding why Illumi was so cold and distant. He glanced at the room that Illumi pointed out excitedly, also a little scared. Wondering how his new brother is like.
