Chapter 55 Sneak Attack
Chapter 55 Sneak Attack
Meanwhile, I had already grabbed my pajamas and gone into the bathroom to take a shower.
Hot water was placed in the bathtub, and steam drifted into the bathroom.
At that moment, I sensed a strange presence coming from downstairs. I guessed who it was after a moment's thought, and nonchalantly stirred the surface of the water.
Once the bathtub was full of water, I couldn't wait to take off my clothes, jump in, and immerse myself in the warm water.
The water temperature in the bathtub was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, making it very comfortable.
I closed my eyes and felt the buoyancy of the water; my body seemed to become lighter.
The water gently enveloped my body, relaxing every inch of my skin, and the fatigue of the day gradually dissipated.
I gently stirred the water, letting it flow around my body, feeling its power and gentleness.
The sound of water is crisp and melodious, like a beautiful piece of music, which makes people feel happy.
Soaking in the bathtub, I can completely relax.
I can think of nothing, do nothing, and simply enjoy this moment of peace and comfort.
I can also think about some issues, or recall some good memories.
In this small space, I can find inner peace and tranquility.
When I got out of the bathtub, I felt much lighter and my mood improved.
Although the time spent soaking in the bathtub was short, it gave me a feeling of endless comfort and relaxation.
I walked out of the bathroom dressed in my pajamas, a towel dangling over my head.
Walking down the corridor, I ran into Tom Marvolo Riddell, who was just coming upstairs.
“Tom Marvolo, keep a close eye on your little friend.” I stared at Tom Marvolo Riddle with meaningful eyes and grinned at him.
"Hmm." Tom Marvolo Riddle had only spent a day with me, so he wouldn't easily trust the person in front of him. He had been wary of me all along, even though I had been taking good care of him so far. He wouldn't forget that the person in front of him was a wizard.
He knew that Nagini's appearance couldn't be kept from me, but he didn't expect me to be so alert. I knew about Nagini the moment she returned to his side.
"Get some rest, I have something to arrange for you tomorrow." He then took advantage of Tom Marvolo Riddle's momentary lapse in attention to give him a gentle pat on the head.
No wonder tall people love to pat short people on the head; it feels really nice.
Tom Marvolo Riddell vowed that if he ever got the chance, he would definitely take down this annoying guy.
Tom Marvolo Riddell could only swallow his anger and take a change of clothes to the bathroom to shower, but when he saw the bathtub full of water, he became a little annoyed.
He's being forced to clean up this mess. He would never have done something like this before; he's only doing it because he's been forced into this situation.
He unplugged the bathtub and waited until all the water had drained before turning on the shower.
When I returned to my room and saw the large, comfortable bed, an indescribable joy welled up inside me.
This bed is like a tranquil harbor, waiting for my drifting little boat to dock.
I couldn't wait to kick off my shoes, jump onto the big bed, and feel the soft mattress and warm blankets.
The mattress has just the right amount of elasticity, providing perfect support for my body and making me feel incredibly comfortable.
A faint fragrance wafted from the blankets—the scent of sunshine and detergent—making one feel incredibly refreshed and relaxed.
I rolled over on the bed, stretched out my limbs, and felt every cell in my body relax and stretch.
It felt like walking on clouds, making me forget all my worries and fatigue.
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the peaceful and serene atmosphere.
At this moment, I feel so happy and content.
This big bed is more than just a bed; it's a place of solace and comfort for my soul.
It made me feel the warmth and comfort of home, allowing me to get plenty of rest and relaxation when I'm tired.
No one can resist the allure of a big bed, not even a handsome man, but I can have both.
Should we wait until Tom Marvolo Riddle falls asleep and then bring him over to sleep?
I think I can have it. I'll grab a book and read it first, then I'll sneak into the next room to steal someone later.
Time flies, it was already past 2 a.m. I quietly opened the door and went to Tom Marvolo Riddle's room.
'Open the Arahu Cave' was cast silently and without any weapon, and 'Stun' was cast on the curled-up Nagini as soon as the door opened.
However, there was one thing I didn't expect that would be such a bad start. The moment I opened the door, Tom Marvolo Riddle jumped out of bed and hid behind the closet, which blocked my view. That reaction was really something. I don't know if he was like that in the orphanage or if he was born that way.
"Something wrong so late?" Tom Marvolo Riddell didn't show himself, but asked from a distance.
"Oh, it's nothing, I was just testing your reaction. I'm very satisfied with your reaction." I was just lying through my teeth, trying to find an excuse for my failed attempt to steal someone.
“It’s nothing, please leave my room.” Tom Marvolo Riddell remained hidden behind the wardrobe and refused to come out.
"Okay~ Goodnight~" I feel like I've really messed up this time. I might not have another chance to cheat on someone else~ Sigh~
With a hint of disappointment, he closed Tom Marvolo Riddle's room door. This was his only chance, and he had failed. He could only go back to his own room and sleep by himself.
[Gold: Ding—A sneak attack on the target Tom Marvolo Riddle has been completed.]
Rewards: 100 Bond Points, 100 Experience Points, 10 Favorability Points, 1 Luck Point, 10 Galleons
(Tsk tsk tsk, so this is what kind of system you are, my sugar daddy.)
[Jin: Host's son, you're the one who's like that, going out to steal someone in the middle of the night.]
(What are you saying? It didn't work, did it?)
【gold:……】
Only after I left and closed the door did Tom Marvolo Riddell come out from beside the closet, carefully walk to the door, lock it from the inside, and pull a chair from the desk to block the doorway.
He then knelt down in front of Nagini to look at the enchanted snake, picked up her body and shook it; it seemed she had completely passed out.
Useless, he fell for it so easily. Tom Marvolo Riddell simply put the snake back.
Seeing the spell I just cast, Tom Marvolo Riddell is now increasingly eager to learn it, but this guy named Ayers Hall is too unpredictable.
There's no point in letting my mind wander like this, I should just go to sleep.
So Tom Marvolo Riddle climbed back into bed and went to sleep, but he only slept lightly, fearing that Ayers Hall would launch another sneak attack.
