Chapter 21: That Blood Calls For Nightmares and Awakens The Siscon Soul at The Same Time

Humans, sometimes have scary dreams.

"...... I can't see anythin'"

I am right now, is in the middle of darkness.

I can't see anything in front of me, I can't move my body, and it's a dim space where it feels like there's no existence other than me.

"... Well now Taiga, how do I open my eyes awake huh"

If this was real, it wouldn't be unbearable, but strangely enough, I was able to recognize that this was a dream, so I felt somewhat at ease.

I crossed my arms... Well, I didn't even feel like I was crossing them, but anyway I kept thinking about how do I open my eyes awake, and after a while doing so, it happens a change even to this dream.

"What?"

Something dark and red appeared in front of me.

It swayes and wriggles as if it has a will, and it gradually approaches me.

"......Kimeee"

I didn't know what that something was, but still, I have an unpleasant say intuition about it.

When I recognize the object in front of me, my body starts to move, and naturally I step back to get away from it.

"A wall?"

However there was a wall behind me and I couldn't go back any further.

Reddish-black something slowly closed the distance from me, and then something stretched out and touched my cheek.

"-!?"

At that moment, a strange chill ran through my body.

Instinctively and physiologically, I try to escape from it, but I can't escape because red and black things are wrapped around my body like threads.

"Damn it..... What is this....... Disgusting!"

It wasn't such a lukewarm badness feelings that made me feel nauseous or something like that, it was a discomfort feeling to the extent that made something inside me going weird.

If I touch this for too long, it's no good, and if I don't leave it quickly, my brain will desperately sound an alarm bell... however I can't escape.

".....sav..e...m..e....chisome........"

I am aware that asking my sister for help would be pathetic as a brother.

But right now, I didn't have the leeway of keeping my appearance, so only at most let out of my mouth the name of Chisome, the nearest presence to me, and wished for her to help me.

{......Was it painful you shitty son of mine}

"-!?"

I remember that voice I heard.

That's because that voice was... unmistakably of that shitty old man of my mine.

{How dare you kill me huh..... Even though I was about to be able to taste that brat in just a little while. Children who kill their parents musn't not be punished right~? ISN'T THAT RIGHT TAIGA!}

Shut up be quiet, even though I want to say that, I can't let my voice out.

I've never been scared in front of my old man, and I should've had the leeway to say something back, but the current me can't do anything... my consciousness was being teared up by the badness feelings that was eating away at my body and so because of that I had no strength to oppose my old man.

{Kukuu, how was it, is it painful~? The same pain as that shitty brat}

"......Haa?"

My old man's words, strangely enough made me feel like the pain that was eating into my body had receded.

With my head feeling relieved in a single breath, the answer that I arrived at, isn't that the nightmare that Chisome suffered from, was as much as something.

"Chisome... does that mean she had this dream too?"

I don't wish the words that follow beyond that.

Even if I tell her that she doesn't have to say it, but for Chisome's unwell look, I briefly told her what had happened.

"Chisome must have been in such pain all this time right."

".....I, suppose so. But since I met Nii-san, I have become really okay now. I am now no longer seeing things like nightmares at all."

"That's right isn't it. Probably, but I think I'm also okay now. Because I think surely it knows it's useless."

"e?"

"I am invincible because I love Chisome lots, I told it that."

".........-!?"

Chisome's face turned red, but I tried to be considerate of her and hugged her as hard as I could to avoid looking at her face.

Fortunately, I don't seem to sweat a lot like Chisome did after waking up from her nightmare before, so my body shouldn't give off a strange smell.

"That's why it's okay. Don't apologize, Chisome, if it's that much to apologize for, will you show me a smile?"

"......un......un!"

Because if I don't say this much, Chisome won't show me a smile.

She most likely has something really curious about, I guess, she should've known already that I'm showing myself such figure like this is because I'm thinking about Chisome... but, anyone would be relieved if the other party said something in this way right?

"U~n well but, it was a little scary is certain after all. And so, Chisome"

"Do we sleep together? That's fine, it is what one hopes for!"

"....You did well to get that?"

"Ehehe, if it's about Nii-san I can see right through you"

......After all, we are like this right.

If I had to say this honestly, perhaps I might be having nightmares again.

However, when I opened my eyes, there was such a cute and brotherly little sister waiting, so I can't easily imagine losing to the nightmare.

"Nee nee Nii-san"

"What?"

"Um....it just a suggestion but see. a bed that is big......wouldn't you buy it?"

"......You want it?"

"Un. That way it won't be too cramped, and more than anything, it be able to line it up with three people."

A big bed might sound disagreeable (lewd) but, certainly I might buy it.

Kuro Chisome is also nodding strongly while lying on my body so, shall we go take a look for beds on the next holiday then!

"Nii-san"

"Un?"

"I......I'm glad that Nii-san is my brother. Really love you lots"

"......Chisomee!"

"Wawaa, Nii-san cried again!"

Well of course I'll cry! or rather, how many times is this exchange!

In the end, even though it was late at night, we forgot to sleep and continuously in talk...
