Red and blue light beams flashed and then vanished. In this sparsely populated rural town, only one person noticed.

"You're out, Greed."

King Bradley gazed at the night sky where the light beams disappeared, the Ouroboros mark appearing in his eyes.

"King, what's wrong?" A short green-haired middle-aged man walked out of the tent, seeing King Bradley standing outside looking at him, and asked worriedly.

"Nothing, just a surge of emotion." King Bradley chuckled softly, turning back and conversing in a low voice with Praline.

It was 5 AM, and the night was gradually fading, with a hint of light emerging from the edge of the sky.

At this moment, beneath the sky where the red and blue light beams had vanished...

"Did he win, or lose?"

Illumi stood with his arms crossed, watching the wriggling red and blue light mass with interest.

"Bang!" A lump of flesh was spat out by the red and blue light mass, falling into a deep pit. It was Hyram's corpse.

"Splash..." From within the red and blue light mass, red and blue energy masses flowed down like liquid, scattering on the ground.

"Finally, we can see the result." Illumi's expression turned serious. After waiting for seven long hours, the struggle between his greed and the golden mask had finally ended. But he felt that the loser was the golden mask. Simply because human emotions were too complex.

Just as Illumi was making this conjecture, the liquid-like energy masses scattered on the ground began to condense. They gathered on Hyram's corpse, constantly twisting, splitting, merging, and expanding, eventually forming the shape of a tall human. But the transformation didn't stop there. After the body formed, a golden mask appeared on his face.

"So... should I call you Greed, or Golden Greed?" Illumi looked at him with a half-smile. The naked figure shook his head, then walked steadily out of the deep pit and stood in front of him.

"Clothes." Greed's low voice came from beneath the mask. To Illumi's surprise, he seemed exceptionally calm.

"Heh..." Illumi chuckled softly, closing his eyes, then grinned. "Before that, I have something to give you."

"Boom!" A terrifying surge of Nen suddenly erupted from Illumi, and a violent gust of wind spread outwards from him, even pressing down the grass so it couldn't lift its head.

"I don't need it." To his surprise, Greed refused.

"Swish!" Illumi suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as a sword, chilling and deadly.

"You don't want it, but you have to take it!" Illumi suddenly stretched out his right arm, grabbed Greed's left arm, and pressed it against his own Nen. Greed broke free from Illumi's right hand and suddenly leaped into the air.

"Whoosh!" Illumi's body suddenly appeared above Greed's head, his right palm open, pressing down on his crown.

"Bang!" The force was so immense that the moment Illumi's palm touched Greed's head, an extremely faint ripple of aftershock erupted. Illumi pressed Greed's head, descending from the sky.

"Boom!" Greed's head was pressed firmly into the deep pit by Illumi. Hyram's corpse was smashed into minced meat by his headbutt, splattering everywhere.

"What I give you, you cannot refuse!" Illumi's attitude was incredibly strong. Greed's eyes glowed red, wanting to struggle.

"Hiss, hiss..." But in an instant, Illumi's Nen, upon contacting Greed's body, transformed into a hideous face and rushed into his body. Greed violently lifted his head, which was pressed into the deep pit. A fierce blue light erupted from the surface of his body, instantly suppressing the red light.

A long while later... Illumi released his right hand from Greed's head. The two slowly stood up, facing each other in silence.

"Still like this. Looks better." Illumi looked at Greed's face. The golden mask had disappeared, replaced by another layer of restraint.

"Tch." Greed grumbled with a displeased "Tch," disgustedly shaking the blood and flesh pulp from his hands.

Illumi's lips curved faintly. He turned, leaped out of the deep pit, his feet glowing with a white light, transforming into Hyram's appearance.

"Let's go. I'll find you a suitable set of clothes."

Greed heard this, leaped out of the deep pit, and followed Illumi, leaving the grassy area. As for the deep pit, Hyram's corpse had already been smashed into minced meat, so he was too lazy to bury it. Anyway, it would be eaten by certain animals.

"Swish!" On the way, Illumi experimented with a new ability. A layer of hard black armor covered his body. At the same time, he discovered that he also possessed an unexpected ability.

"Effect of the Greed's Mask." Illumi looked at the red Nen extending from his fingertips. It had the same effect as the golden mask, like Demetrius's ability, able to influence others' emotions. As for the rapid recovery ability, he wouldn't put himself through torment just to test an ability.

The lights in the hall suddenly switched on with a "click," illuminating the dark villa hall. Phillis, who was sleeping on the sofa, immediately woke up and looked up. She had waited on the sofa all night.

"Father?" Her father, Hyram, was standing at the doorway, his right hand on the light switch in the hall, smiling at her.

For some reason, Phillis looked at her father in front of her. Her father's smile was cold, like cold embroidery needles piercing the surface of her skin, making all her pores close up.

"Go wash up, then go to sleep." Hyram, with a smile, came to her, touched her head, and said gently. Phillis nodded blankly, then rose and walked towards the bathroom. Her intuition told her not to speak, not to doubt.

"Pfft!" Phillis's footsteps faltered. Her pupils constricted, and her body slowly collapsed towards the ground, her beautiful twin pigtails fluttering behind her.

"Thump..." Lying on the cold, hard ground, the girl looked at the pair of leather shoes in front of her. A warm sensation welled up from beneath her, but then her body grew cold, weak, and tired. Phillis slowly closed her eyes, severing her connection with this world.

"Tch, you're really gentle." Greed entered through the main door, looked at the girl's corpse at Illumi's feet, and sneered.

"I'm not a serial killer, but unfortunately, she seemed to have noticed something." Illumi's tone was gentle. He bent down, softly picked up the twin-tailed girl's corpse, dug a pit in the backyard, and buried her in it.

He went to the garage, randomly picked a car, and drove all the way to the City Hall.

"May... Mayor." The security guard was somewhat surprised. It was barely 7 AM, and he had never seen the Mayor come to work so early.

"Are you not letting me in?" Illumi narrowed his eyes, and the security guard immediately opened the barrier, allowing Illumi to drive into the parking lot. The two got out of the car and walked openly into the City Hall through the main entrance.

"Creak~" Gently pushing open the door to the Mayor's office, he went to the desk, pulled out various document folders from the file box, and rummaged through them.

"Found it." After a long while, Illumi finally found the document regarding King Bradley's company's land, and examined it carefully.

"This guy, he swallowed fifteen percent of the money for that land all by himself." Illumi's cheek twitched slightly as he looked at the document with the price of the land dispute.
