 "What do you want from him?"

Secco couldn't be able to trust Grenno anymore. Indeed, he was her master for months last year, but right now, she had the feeling that she can't trust him. She can't trust anyone.

Because of this, Grenno flinched in his position. He knew the reason for her having doubts. He knew that it was already inside her mind. He couldn't believe that he had to experience it at the first meeting for a while.

"Don't worry. I won't bite." He answered, tried to stare at her very soul to get her trust one more time, just like before. "I just wanted to tell him something."

Secco also stared at him, but it was a glare of malice that came from out of nowhere. Her small doubts became bigger, and with just a little hate from anything, it turned into a big deal.

But Killua and the others were oblivious about this. They didn't know what's going on with their friend.

Impatiently, the silver-haired boy stepped forward and approach Grenno.

"Killua?!" Secco exclaimed like she couldn't believe what he was doing with his carelessness. But the latter just turned his head with a smirk.

"Don't worry. I'll follow later on." He reassured them, which made her anxiety lower a bit.

Secco doesn't have any choice but to trust Killua on what he was about to do. And with this action, he found this strange. She overreacted like it was a threat. Why?

"So... what do you want from me?" Killua asked, with both of his hands in his pockets. The other three went out of the room after that.

"I wanted to talk about... Secco." He said. "You're the only one I could count on this information. And don't tell anyone else. Not your close friends, not to Secco."

This made Killua curious. He knew that he will end up in this situation, but he didn't expect that he will talk about Secco.

Indeed, Secco had the distorted arm, but it was gone. The doctors treated her and scanned her body to search for the cells, and there was no trace. What was left to talk about?

"You know about the distorted arm, right?" He said and now started talking about the information he just collected for a year.

He told him about the monster cells still lurking inside Secco's mind and that anytime soon, it will completely take it over.

"W-What?" That's all Killua could be able to say after dumping that information to him. Of course, he would be confused. Although he found her actions suspicious, he didn't have a single idea that it came from those monster cells.

His eyes were widened that it will almost go out of his face and his face became paler than before. Hearing that she was in danger from her own self made him shiver in his position.

"I-I thought it was gone..." He added, still stuttering after hearing the information.

"That's what we thought too. But my... acquaintance scanned Secco's body and found the monster cells moving, which can't be detected by normal scanners." He explained, in which Killua tried to listen despite the information he kept pushing to him all in one. "We theorize that it should be on her brain by now."

This made Killua more shocked and let his brain drowned in despair. Thinking about it made him remembered how happy Secco was after having a new human arm.
