About Millus in Kukuroo Mountain's Winter
If one were to disregard the fact that Kukuroo Mountain is the stronghold of a notorious family of assassins, it is, in essence, a well-preserved natural scenic area. It boasts dense vegetation, abundant precious flora and fauna, distinct seasons, and beautiful landscapes.
In winter, Kukuroo Mountain is draped in silver, resembling an ice and snow fairytale world.
Within this fairytale world, the young Milluki, his tongue stuck to an iron railing, was a victim of his sister Alluka's trickery. Alluka had told him that iron railings in winter tasted sweet. Though he didn't try it immediately, he couldn't resist licking the railing when no one else was around.
Then, his tongue became stuck. "..."
The good news was that his predicament was discovered soon after.
The bad news was that the one who found him was his eldest brother, Illumi.
"What are you doing, little Mi?" Illumi, whose own tongue had once been stuck to an iron railing years ago, declared with great confidence. "I taught you long ago to curb unnecessary curiosity. It seems you still lack proper education."
Years later, it was the young Killua whose tongue got stuck to an iron railing, because his elder brother Illumi had told him that iron railings in winter tasted sweet.
"Haha, I was lying," Illumi explained afterward.
"..."
Having been freed, Killua went to find his father, Silva, the next day.
"Dad, Dad, listen to me, listen to me! Iron railings in winter are sweet!" the little Killua excitedly shared his latest intelligence with his father.
"..."
Looking down at his youngest son, who resembled him the most, Silva remained silent for a moment.
"Little Ki," the stern-faced Silva displayed an unusually kind smile, ruffling Killua's hair. "Who taught you this?"
"..."
