Chapter 91: TOM You're really abnormal today, you should take your medicine

  Sitting on the edge of the bed, quietly watching Tom who was still in a daze, she let out a soft sigh. The wounds on Tom's body had already been treated. His originally swollen red face had also recovered to its delicate doll-like appearance, only...

  Narrowing his eyes, he gazed at Tom with a cold and detached air. Until today, when I left this room, Tom's soul was still a beautiful bright red, but now his soul seemed to have been accidentally mixed with a few drops of ink, the bright red had darkened somewhat, turning into a color that leaned towards crimson. It must be what happened today that cast a shadow over his heart, unforgivable!

  That dead fatso just now had a timid and fearful look, he must be the mastermind! If I knew earlier, it wouldn't have been so simple to cut off his fingers. Looking at him, he's definitely a glutton. He deserves to be secretly poisoned with rat poison in his food! (Note 1) (Aoi Sakura is still quite childish at times, but even among the Blood Clan, she's just a bit stronger than an infant. Even as a pure-blood princess.)

  But brother said that temporary physical pain is not as unbearable as long-term emotional and mental suffering. (Why do you always teach Akira such useless things? Because Akira is easy to take advantage of, and it would make me sad.)

  A wicked smile spread across his face as he pulled out the 'Dream' card, and took out a miniature version of the 'Key' pendant hanging around his neck. "The Key that conceals the power of Chaos, according to our contract, the seal is lifted. Dream, punish those who have maliciously harmed Tom in their dreams."

  Smiling, I sent off the 'Dream' brand, and I believe they will spend their days in nightmares from now on~ Staring at the magic wand in my hand for a while, Kuro Rido said that the wand changes shape due to the master's magical attribute. Kuro's is dark attribute, and Sakura's is star attribute, what about mine?

  "Hmm..." With his keen sense of hearing, he sat up on the bed and saw Tom frowning as if he had a nightmare. Could it be that 'Dream' had mistaken its target and given Tom a nightmare instead...?

  Her long black eyelashes fluttered lightly, and her eyes widened like a child who had just had a nightmare, filled with panic. She quickly got up, grabbed my hem, and I could feel the trembling of that hand, had she really had a nightmare...

  "...Sister, older sister?" After a while, Tom raised his head, and the originally panicked eyes were replaced by puzzlement. His bloodshot eyes looked at me with a hint of uncertainty and inquiry.

  "Uh, did Tom have a nightmare?" I was somewhat surprised at Tom's unusual behavior and thought to myself that he might have been startled. I took out my handkerchief to wipe away the fine sweat on his forehead, feeling a bit regretful and guilty inside. The main god had given me a deadline of three days, and I could have gone the day before...

  TOM hung his head so I couldn't see his expression, then raised it with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, bloodshot eyes that didn't match his age with complex eyes, eyes with ambition. "No, sis, I think this is a good dream."

  I blinked a few times to make sure I wasn't seeing things wrong, but the expression TOM just showed was quite abnormal. I tilted my head, and indeed, it was a mistake... right? The TOM in front of me is still that lovely, well-behaved, innocent (big mistake!) kid~

  "Don't worry, TOM, I'll make those who bully you pay the price. Those who bully my adorable little brother are unforgivable." Gently stroking TOM's soft black hair, radiating the light and smile of the Virgin Mary, "Those who bully my beloved little brother won't just have nightmares every day and night, oh no..."

  TOM felt a surge of warmth in his heart, which made him involuntarily drop the hand that was about to touch the head, and it was a familiar yet strange feeling. Suddenly he remembered that dream, or maybe it wasn't just a dream.

  "Sister, what price are they going to pay?" Tom looked at me with some curiosity, and the childlike eyes that had just seen were indeed an illusion.

  "Hmm... For now, I just make them have nightmares about their deepest fears every night. As for the rest, I haven't thought of anything yet, but it's enough to make them insomnia and mentally weak." Some mischievous tongue-out at TOM.

  The corners of Tom's mouth twitched slightly as he suddenly realized something - that it was absolutely impossible to provoke his sister, or else the consequences would be disastrous. However, thinking about that fat guy who had boasted that he would help him pursue his sister made Tom feel extremely pleased in his heart. But was it enough? Shouldn't he 'properly' help him out a bit, like from now on never eating a full meal again?

  I looked at Tom's thoughtful expression, wondering if he was troubled by those people calling him a devil or demon. I poked his forehead and said to him in a serious tone, "Tom, don't ignore what those people say carelessly. Devils are cute, you know~ (somehow reminded of Char) more adorable than angels."

  "Why does sister know demons are cuter than angels?"

  "... it's a secret, oh yeah, TOM do you know that justice and evil are actually equal? People always consider the side they choose as just, while the opposing side is evil, so they want to eliminate the opposing side. To achieve victory, the most important things are people's hearts and strength, neither of which can be lacking... thinking about it, TOM only pursued power, while Dumbledore won over people's hearts, indeed TOM lost in the end."

  "……Oh." Tom responded faintly, his lowered head and eyes flashing with anger, annoyance, and some doubt.

  "Does Tom want to learn martial arts?" Actually, I'm still worried that Tom will get hurt again.

  "I don't want to, I can protect myself!" Tom said with a stubborn face.

  "Hehe!" I couldn't help but laugh out loud, TOM can be really adorable at times~

  "Hmm! Sister, what kind of people are our parents? And I feel like I have some strange power..." Tom's eyes shone brightly as he stared at me, then lowered his head and muttered in a somewhat disheartened tone.

  “…Does TOM really want to know? TOM never asked me about my parents, I thought you didn't care at all. I knew that Father and Mother were deeply in love, but after Mother became pregnant with you, Father's personality changed greatly, and he ruthlessly abandoned Mother, leaving her nothing. Because Mother was carrying you, she couldn't go out to work, so she pawned some things. Later, on New Year's Eve, Mother gave birth to you at an orphanage, saying your name is Tom Riddle, with the middle name Marvolo, which is the name of her father. Then she passed away.”

  TOM clenched his lips tightly, his bloodshot eyes burning with flames of indignation, his shoulders trembling slightly with agitation. He raised his hand to push away my hand that was stroking his head, and looked up at me with a loud shout: "Aoi Sakura, you have that power too, don't you?! How could you possibly not know?! Don't try to deceive me like I'm some kind of kid!!"

  I stared blankly at this unusual TOM, opening my mouth without knowing what to say. Seeing TOM's angry eyes, I had no choice but to take out the Clow Card and hand him a 'Jump' card. Under his puzzled gaze, I explained the usage: "TOM, this is a Clow Card, a magical card. Only people with magic power or magicians can use it. Now, inject your strength into this card and say its name."

  Tom blinked his eyes and stared blankly at the card in his hand, then his eyes lit up like a child seeing something novel, he tried it according to my method, and the result was astonishing...

  TOM can actually use KURO card!? What!? Is it possible that magicians and witches have some kind of connection? There's a possibility, yeah!!

  "TOM, I have something serious to tell you. You have the potential of a magician and a wizard." He patted his head, earning himself a white eye roll. But in his heart, he was secretly delighted, now it would be easy to naturally tell him that he is a wizard~

  "Really?" Tom's eyes gleamed with excitement, and he licked his pink lips with a hint of greed, his blood-red eyes shining with a lustful light.

  "Alright, okay... TOM go to sleep early. Sigh... I know, I'll teach you how to use magic tomorrow." With a somewhat helpless look at TOM, he crawled under the covers.

  TOM also snuggled into the warm blanket, slyly hooked his mouth, climbed onto the girl's body and planted a kiss on the girl's lips with a look of surprise. Then, like a koala bear, he tightly hugged the girl, carrying her body with a faint warmth and fragrance "Sister, this is a goodnight kiss, goodnight."

  My mouth corners twitched slightly, Tom, you're really abnormal, you should take your medicine, why did you want to give up treatment ahead of time?!
