In order to test this power, Kikyo ordered Mitsuba to decline all of Alluka's pesterings this time. After refusing Alluka four times in a row, Mitsuba is suddenly crushed into minced meat as a result. In the butlers' lodge, another butler shared the same fate as Mitsuba. Following the incident, Kikyo explained that Mitsuba was in the play room while Hassam was in the butler building, when they both turned into minced meat at the same time. Sensing the confusion of his parents, Killua told them that Mitsuba declined Alluka four times. Thus, another test was made. A new butler, Yasuha, listened to all three pesterings, which made Alluka's eyes turn black. Yasuha wished to become a billionaire. Alluka agreed, and suddenly, paper bills fell from the sky. Later, a news informed about an transport airship with cash that disappeared. Yasuha later apologized for giving into temptation, but Illumi did not think it was a coincidence.
Silva and Kikyo wondered why, despite Alluka being with them, he was not pestering family members at all. Illumi asked permission to handle the next butler, Kasuga, and instructed her that if she listened to all of Alluka's requests, Illumi would overlook both Kasuga and her lover. When he was gone, Alluka began to ask for Kasuga's liver, duodenum, spine, and brain—all of which Kasuga could not provide.
Back in the present, Killua recites the rules known to the Zoldycks:
If an individual grants three of Alluka's requests, he will grant one "wish".
The greater the "wish", the next three requests are more difficult.
The next person who asks a "wish" from Alluka has to face the difficulty of requests from the previous "wish".
If Alluka's requests are declined four times in a row, the person who declines and the person he/she loves the most will die.
Killua remembers that 67 people died from the incident involving Yasuha's billionaire request, Kasuga's inability to listen to Alluka's request, which resulted in 67 simultaneous deaths.
Illumi and Hisoka further discuss the consequences of Alluka's power in an airship bar. According to Illumi, their mother sacrificed several pairs of people to make sure, while Milluki traded some tourists for his "toys". He explains that between those sacrifices, two big occurrences happened concerning Yasuha's and Milluki's request. In a flashback, it showed Milluki walking with his two younger brothers, Alluka and Kalluto, with a tourist, Muna. Alluka suddenly requests something from Muna, but Milluki assures the tourist that Alluka was only playing and he only had to refuse. Illumi then explains that after the incident with Yasuha and Kasuga, it is easy to track down the victims. Those who died in the exact manner and time as Kasuga were her fellow butlers, homeroom teacher, and classmates in the Zoldyck Estate. It defies the rule about the one who asked for a wish and his/her most beloved person would die, as it is impossible for Kasuga to love all of her classmates. Also, Kasuga's ill mother, whom she could only meet once a month for thirty minutes, did not die.
Hisoka suggests that it may have been a change of heart, but Illumi explains that Kasuga did love her mother, only that she met a man over the Internet whom she loved more. The Zoldycks then came into conclusion that if the person who fails Alluka's requests dies, his/her loved one would die, as well as the people who spent much time with the "failed" person. Illumi guesses Killua would ask Alluka to heal Gon, but is sure that Killua would do it the wrong way: he would have somebody else make the request, but pay the price himself. Illumi claims that his younger brother could die trying to fulfill Alluka's requests, and Hisoka thinks both Killua and Gon, the most beloved person, would die. For a moment, Illumi corrects him: Killua and Illumi would die, instead of Gon. Illumi does not mind; his concern goes to the survival of the whole Zoldyck Family. He instructs Hisoka to watch Killua and Alluka; if Killua agrees to a request but is actually lying, Hisoka has the permission to kill Alluka.
Back in the Zoldyck Estate, Alluka enthusiastically greets Killua, who apologizes for leaving him behind. He begins to pester Killua with requests, to which Killua agrees. Next, Alluka asks to play shiritori, as Killua notes that the Alluka who calls him only by his name is an entirely different thing.
Meanwhile, the third election has taken place, with Pariston and Cheadle on the top two spot, and Botobai Gigante now in the third place. Pariston notices that more Hunters have abstained from voting, in fear of losing their Licenses. Beans hands out the list of Hunters whom Cluck should send the messages to. Cheadle notices how Pariston makes decisions that would clearly give him the disadvantage, as though he enjoys challenges. Pariston offers that the Zodiacs should hold a lecture, to remind the Hunters about the importance of the election.
As Killua and Alluka remain in the locked room, Silva, Kikyo, and Milluki watch through a surveillance camera. While Kikyo shows amusement that Killua has turned into a good older brother, Milluki expresses his disappointment, for his computer wish was a "piece of cake", which earns him a glare from his father. Silva asks Milluki to recite the rules once again, which adds that Alluka's wishes could not be passed to another person while still in the middle of transaction. They notice that Killua has not asked a wish yet, and Milluki knows that Killua would not sacrifice innocent lives to save his friend.
Then, Killua carries Alluka in his arms, and demands that they should be released. Silva refuses and orders him to make the wish inside the room. In order to leave his father with no choice, Killua wishes for Alluka (now turned into Nanika) to kill their mother if both of them have not left the mountain within half an hour. If they are able to do so, Nanika must give Killua a kiss on the cheek. Kikyo slumps on the floor, being proud of Killua for saying something as such. Silva reluctantly opens the door and lets them leave.
Morel Mackernasey receives a call from Killua and tells him that Gon's condition remains that same, and a number of familiar friends have come to visit the hospital. Morel suggests that a Nen exorcist must be called to help, but Killua assures him that his method is easier, although the process of getting to the hospital would be of some difficulty. He contacts Gotoh, a senior butler, who warns Killua about the restriction of movements; if the restriction reaches level 5, wherein the target must be apprehended for leaving the estate, Killua may be captured immediately.
To avoid complications, Killua and Alluka are joined by Gotoh and Canary. Gotoh questions why Canary has to be with them, and Killua lectures him that only a female butler could provide Alluka's "girlish" needs. Then, two more butlers arrive, much to the surprise of Killua. Tsubone, with her granddaughter Amane, claims that Silva has ordered them to come. When Tsubone threatens Killua about breaking the rules, Alluka comes to his brother's defense. Bemused, Tsubone apologizes. Amane introduces herself to Canary, just as Alluka begins to ask for Tsubone's fingernail.
Tsubone wholeheartedly complies and tells Killua that she would conceal herself for the moment, to prevent Alluka from requesting to other people. Alluka then asks if he is mad, but Killua assures him that there is nothing to worry about.
The group leaves the Zoldyck Estate and travels by car. Gotoh receives a call from Leorio Paradinight; the two quickly fall into an argument. The butler informs Leorio that Killua is headed to the hospital, and in doing so, has risked his life. Morel tries to take the call, but Leorio disagrees. When Gotoh requests that all patients and doctors in the hospital, with the exception of Gon, should leave, Leorio suddenly bursts out, prompting Morel to take the phone and listen to the conditions himself. He agrees and calls Knov for assistance. As Leorio turns to leave the hospital, he tells Morel that he needs to speak to someone—Kurapika.
