The massive gates of the Zoldyck estate loomed ahead, a stark reminder of the family's infamous legacy. The air was heavy with an aura of power and mystery, and the sprawling grounds beyond the gates stretched as far as the eye could see. For Killua, this was a return to the home he had once vowed to leave behind. For Millianna and their children, it was an introduction to a world both foreign and familiar.

The gates creaked open as the family approached, the sound echoing ominously through the mountains. Killua led the way, his steps steady but his expression unreadable. Behind him, Millianna walked with a calm confidence, her demi-human ears twitching slightly as she took in the sounds and smells of the estate. Their four children followed closely, each with their own mix of curiosity and apprehension.

Hikato, the youngest at 12, clung to his mother’s side, his sharp eyes darting around as if assessing every detail. Lilly and Yumi, the 14-year-old twins, shared a look of quiet determination, their demi-human features making them stand out even among the Zoldyck lineage. Raito, the eldest at 15, walked with a swagger that mirrored his father’s younger days, though his gaze betrayed a flicker of unease.

As they passed through the courtyard, the family was greeted by the sight of the sprawling mansion. Its towering walls and intricate architecture were both awe-inspiring and intimidating. The weight of generations of assassins hung in the air, a silent reminder of the legacy Killua had once tried to escape.

(A Moment of Reflection)

Killua paused at the entrance, turning to face his family. His silver hair caught the light, and his piercing blue eyes softened as he looked at them.

"This place... it’s not easy to get used to," he admitted, his voice steady but tinged with emotion. "But it’s part of who I am. And now, it’s part of who we are."

Millianna stepped forward, placing a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "We’ll face it together, Sparky," she said, her voice warm and unwavering. "This is our family now, and nothing will change that."

The children exchanged glances, their expressions shifting from uncertainty to determination.

(The Zoldyck Welcome)

As they entered the mansion, they were greeted by the familiar figure of Silva Zoldyck, standing tall and imposing in the grand foyer. His piercing gaze swept over the group, lingering briefly on each child. Behind him, Kikyo Zoldyck stood with her usual air of refinement, though her sharp eyes betrayed a hint of disapproval as they landed on Millianna.

"Welcome home, Killua," Silva said, his deep voice echoing through the hall. His gaze shifted to the children. "And welcome to the next generation of the Zoldyck family."

Kikyo stepped forward, her smile polite but cold. "So these are your children," she said, her tone laced with curiosity. "They certainly have... potential."

Millianna’s ears twitched, but she held her ground, meeting Kikyo’s gaze with a calm confidence.

Killua stepped between them, his voice firm. "They’re not here to be judged. They’re here because they’re my family."

Silva raised an eyebrow but said nothing, his expression unreadable.

As the family settled into their new surroundings, the weight of the Zoldyck legacy loomed over them. For Killua, this was a chance to confront his past and carve out a new path for his family. For Millianna and the children, it was an opportunity to prove that they could survive in this world.

(Later that day.)

Killua and Millianna found themselves in their bedroom, a quiet space filled with unspoken tension. Killua sat at the edge of the bed, his mind racing with thoughts about a pivotal decision that could reshape his family's future.
