*Written in a fit of love-induced madness. Please scroll down to read the warnings!

After a strange experience, Illumi takes an interest in Chrollo.

At the time, Chrollo has lost his Nen and is heading east, guided by a prophecy.

At first, he thinks the Zoldyck assassin has been hired to kill him. Instead, Illumi invites him to visit Kukuroo Mountain.

Chrollo: ? What's gotten into him?

After Chrollo firmly refuses, the assassin won't stop following him.

...He might as well have come to kill him.

But life is full of surprises. After being pursued for five whole days, Chrollo suddenly falls into another world...

The System requires him to complete missions and earn points before he can leave.

With no other choice, he gets to work so he can go home.

Just as Chrollo is diligently completing his missions, he runs into someone who has become his adoptive older brother.

Chrollo: ...

The guy just won't leave me alone.

Tips:

* CP: Illumi, eldest son of the assassin family, control freak, emotional black hole, top x Chrollo, infamous head of the Phantom Troupe, free-spirited, highly intelligent, bottom

* Continues from the bonus chapters in my previous novel, "The Zoldyck Family's Eldest Daughter-in-Law," but you can read this without having read that one. The reason Illumi takes an interest in Chrollo from the start will be revealed later.

* The troupe leader is written according to his characterization after the Phantom Troupe's backstory was published, which differs greatly from earlier fanon impressions.

* [Major warning 1] The top is a control freak, a control freak, a control freak. (Emphasizing this three times because it's important.) His approach to love is extremely abnormal, his thought process is completely out of the ordinary, and there's a [wallpaper] element. Please proceed with caution if this bothers you!

* [Major warning 2] This story has a lot of Chrollo-worship, and Chrollo is at a disadvantage early on. Please proceed with caution!

* OOC, with original headcanons. Happy ending. Written for my own enjoyment. If it's not your thing, please don't be mean QAQ
