Chapter 240: 8: Part 6

The end of the darts game approaches, but the older brother insists on keeping the count hidden, saying that if Killua begs for his life it would help him focus even more — while cliché lines like 'get it over with' would infuriate him into a mistake. It is best, he decides, that Killua dies in ignorance. 'I got a perfect score when I was six, maybe seven.'
