Capítulo 57: Chapter 55: A headache pt 02 x Tom loses the battle
07:55 am
Going to school were Tom, Issei, Shirou and Julian with a new addition: Gionna
- Hurry up, we're late! - Tom yelled as he walked off into the distance everyone was sweating and panting after trying to reach him
If there was one thing Tom was invincible at, it was running away.
(Merlin: You learned well my dear student)
- Now I understand how he is still alive until now... - Gionna murmured as she looked at him, losing himself in the distance.
Even for her it was a surprise to see Tom race alongside a sports car and still beat it in speed.
**************************
Even without Issei the plot was able to find a way to get on track
- We only ask that you do not get involved in the affairs of the church, since you demons are possible suspects in the case - Despite his neutral tone, the disgust and contempt hidden in his voice could be distinguished.
Except that...
- Don't you see how ridiculous your words are?! Why would a demon touch a holy sword willingly?! Only an idiot would do it and more if it is one of the Excaliburs, those things could kill us! - Rias glared at the short-haired girl who was wearing a black outfit that would suit a stripper better.
The events did not follow the same rhythm, the arc of the stolen Excaliburs that should have come after the marriage with Riser was canceled came before
- No matter what you say, you demons are suspicious, period, who knows if they just stole them so that they would remain in the hands of the faction from heaven - "There is no room for protests" although she had not said it, those were the words that Xenovia had made it clear - They have taught me how despicable they can be, of that I have no doubt -
Xenovia reacted quickly and blocked a sword that was trying to hit her.
*clanks
On the other hand, Kiba looked at her with annoyance and suppressed anger, Xenovia believed that this was just a demon revealing her true face.
Ignoring that the target of hatred was nothing but the sword in his hands
- You and me, a duel now! - I speak with a voice consumed by hatred
Irina seemed surprised, as if she still didn't understand how things had gotten to this point.
It was more than obvious from the comical way she moved her arms from one place to another with a rather goofy expression.
Xenovia on the other hand smiled like a predator when she saw that her prey was within her grasp.
And she had her claws ready to attack
- It seems go- -
Her reply was interrupted by Tom, who entered dressed in black priest's robes.
Behind him, Issei, Gionna and Julian entered while wearing awkward expressions and wry smiles.
Her face had no emotion in it, his eyes looked like those of a dead fish
- I am opposed. Do you have any complaints about that? - He said with a strong voice without any emotion as if it were a machine
Shirou nearly tripped over his own feet noticing that it was similar to Kiritsugu's with a bit of Kotomime.
- 'Please don't say "Yorokobe Shounen" he feels I'll faint if he does' -
Xenovia and Irina looked at him with confusion, they were supposed to be the only ones to fulfill the collection mission.
For years there was no active church in Kuoh, therefore there was no priest or nun here.
So who was he?
- May I know who you are sir? - Irina asked curiously, but to Tom's ears that sounded more like an order than anything else.
- And why should I tell you? Although there was no expression on her face, everyone felt that she could hear her evil laugh in their heads.
Rias might not get along so well with Tom, but at this very moment she felt that he wanted to give her a big hug.
- 'He is not the knight in shining armor that I expected... but he serves me' - He thought
While Kiba seemed very annoyed by the interruption he had caused, for a moment the idea of attacking him crossed his mind but then he remembered who he was and... he no longer dared to show his dissatisfaction against him
There were various rumors about how the murderous demon treated those who seriously pissed him off.
And he was nothing pretty...
Kiba shivered just remembering the horrible photos taken of Diodora Astaroth after she messed with Gray
.........
- Tom, what...? - Gionna seemed to have a big question mark when seeing the way Tom acted
She believed that she had seen his true face from the beginning, she believed that he was just a clumsy, good and occasionally crazy boy.
Besides that her cooking was great (he drooled a little at the memory)
But... What was the true side of him? Was it this one or the one he met before?
And she didn't seem to be the only one, Shirou for her part had her eyes open in shock, she could see terror in her gaze
While Issei hugged his trembling body and murmured
- ...N-No... No more training please... No! Don't Tom Stop! No piranha shooter bazooka please! -His eyes had lost their shine as they filled with tears
...What kind of training involves bazookas and piranhas? - Honestly she didn't even want to know
But there was a new feeling for Gionna
I want to see his true face
Her feelings were nothing more than that, a mere curiosity about the boy who had received her at her house despite being a complete stranger
................
- How dare you speak to us like that, those designated by the Holy Church to fulfill this mission! -Xenovia shouted as she raised Excalibur Destruction ready to cut Tom
Irina on the other hand seemed to have panicked.
- W-Wait Xenovia you don't have to attack him! He didn't do anything! -
Neither Xenovia nor Tom seemed to flinch at her words.
- He has sided with the demons, avoiding our fight, if he is a true believer he will die by my sword without resisting! - The blue-haired girl shouted with complete certainty, she did not believe that some priest from who she knows where she would give her a good fight
Gionna looked at her with total contempt but she didn't make a single move.
Given that...
- 'It's useless' - She thought as she crossed her arms
She didn't know how strong Tom was, but if she compared the power she could feel from both
Comparing them would be a joke
It was like comparing grades and saying that an F (Xenovia) is better than an A (Tom)
that simple
.........
The blonde's comparison was quickly verified when Tom took the sword that came down towards him with his hands.
- It's a nice toy you have in your hands girl - He said, without changing his emotionless tone for a single moment - But a pity only serves to look pretty - With a little pressure the sword began to crack
The most frustrating thing was that she had only left a small scratch on Tom's skin, one that was quickly erased by self-healing.
*crack
- WHAT?! - The eyes of the demons and the girls in the church widened in shock upon seeing one of the best holy swords in existence destroyed
- In the end it's just that, a toy that they put together with the pieces of a weapon - He put the remains of the broken sword in a container and extended his free hand as if he were taking something, then he squeezed it hard
*crack
Another crack resounded, and Irina was surprised to see that she no longer had Excalibur Mimic with her.
She almost couldn't suppress her cry of terror when she saw that she suffered the same fate as her partner's sword.
Kiba on the other hand let out a somewhat shrill laugh as he wiped the tears from his eyes, the swords hadn't been broken by his hands.
But the Excaliburs were being destroyed in front of him, that boded well for Kiba
Who sobbed and murmured
- *Sob...They're not unbreakable...*Sob They're not unbreakable! *Ob Hahahahaha! - A big smile appeared on his face, he really had a hard time jumping up to Tom and hugging him because of the immense pressure he releases
- Well... Are you done with your little games? - Tom approached Kiba and ruffled his hair, he knew that this boy's hatred was irrational and somewhat clumsy but...
He could understand, he had someone he would never forgive never never never ever
That's why he in a way he could understand Kiba's hatred
That was the only time they saw a small smile on his face for a few moments before he returned to that emotionless mask.
.............
- 'Smile...' - Julian thought happily, he could see his best friend laugh and smile daily
That was something happy for him, he knew that even after so many years Tom had a hard time leaving behind all the hatred he has for Wesker and what they went through in those "tests"
He also hated him but not with the same intensity, that's why he couldn't fully understand his friend's heart.
That's why he was happy to see his smile, because it wasn't a fake one.
He could see it, under his clown act Tom hid his sadness
He was slow but steady, he was heading down a path where he could explode at any moment.
For that he was grateful to his "sisters-in-law" and to Sirius, since his... "sister" *laughs* had been saved by all of them
That's why he could pursue his dreams passionately.
He would be a true Harem King! (Not like Issei)
...................
The girls from the church left and Rias with a smile thanked Tom as he decided to give her one of the most expensive and hard to find wines in the world.
- You have saved us and we are grateful! - She said as she leaned in.
- My sister is the best - Julian said proudly
- ... Sister? - Shirou and Gionna asked in unison
- Tom is my sister! -The trap spoke while he puffed out his chest with pride ... there was only one problem
- Shouldn't it be brother?! - Tom growled with a dissatisfied face
- Hmph. You're too girly to be considered a brother! -
Everyone present fell silent.
- ...Have you seen yourself in a mirror? - Tom said after the awkward silence
- I don't want to hear that from you! - He yelled as he took out his camera and a projector
He quickly connected everything, with the help of Issei, Kiba and especially Shirou who stopped Tom while he put on his best smile.
He knew this would cost him dearly later but he couldn't deny that he wanted this chance to get back at Tom for making him eat Rin's... "food".
Rias, Akeno and Kiba's eyes widened to a point where they would have doubts about whether they would pop out of their faces at what was projected on the wall.
Tom was dressed in an apron, rubber gloves, and a bandana that he tied around his head as he cleaned the entire house.
- Hmmnn... Hmmnn - he hummed a somewhat catchy song while he cleaned the windows
Then they followed Tom cleaning the whole house, even him knitting a sweater for Sirius
He then showed up bringing her a pudding that he had prepared for Gionna...
At that moment the blonde became the target of jealous glances from those who had tasted Tom's food.
Gionna looked away from her in embarrassment.
Although she had no regrets about convincing Tom to make that pudding
- S-Stop! - Tom yelled, his face was as red as a tomato you could tell at a glance that he was too embarrassed
- Who would have thought the murderous demon is surprisingly a very competent housewife - Rias said with a mocking smile, now she could finally have a reason to make fun of Tom after he made fun of her in the last meeting they had
- ...Kill me once and for all -
[You reap what you sow]
[>The teacher looks cute when he tries hard~!<]
- 'Lev... please don't encourage me' -Now Tom really felt that he could start crying at any moment
************************************************
wow! The wolf is on a roll today!
Julian calls Tom's harem sisters-in-law because he considers himself a brother to him.
He also tells Tom's sister as a form of ridicule that he is (contrary to his appearance and fame) someone with quite feminine hobbies.
