Chapter Twenty-Six: Brother, my name is Wanda
"Yes."
"What about at school?"
Uchiha Itachi was stunned when he heard this, he almost forgot that there was such a thing, since he wanted this child to integrate into the school and play with his friends, it was really inappropriate to always wear a mask.
At the beginning, he was also trying to protect Pietro, after all, he always had a little paranoia of persecution, and he didn't want others to threaten him with Pietro.
When he was in school, in order to convince the teacher and the principal, he used illusions to convince the other party that Pietro had surgery on his face and was recovering, so he had to put on a mask for the sake of the child's dignity. Coupled with the formalities that Iron Man happened to be fine that day and came with him, the school agreed.
At the time, I didn't take into account that it was very strange to wear a mask to school, and it was no wonder that this kid couldn't make friends, and everyone rejected the different.
"It's my negligence, it's up to you to wear a mask or not in the future, you should have told me earlier."
"It's good to say it now, but it's boring to go to school, brother, you can take me to bungee jump again." Pietro removed her mask, revealing her usual face, and she straightened her hair.
"Bungee jumping is more boring."
"Not boring."
"Let's think about what to eat first."
"I want to buy cosmetics."
“??” "How old are you, what kind of makeup do you wear, it's good, you don't need to buy it."
"But everyone else has it."
"Did someone at school bully you?"
"Nope."
"I shouldn't have taken Tony's advice and sent you to that school."
"Brother."
"Is someone targeting you?"
“……”
"They said I was ugly, disfigured and masked." Petro pursed his lips after speaking, trying not to let himself cry. She knew that she was not pretty, and even if she took off her mask, tomorrow those classmates would still laugh at her for being ugly, so she wanted to buy cosmetics.
Sometimes, the psychological humiliation is worse than the physical humiliation, and if these classmates beat Pietro, she probably would just endure it, anyway, she has been beaten a lot since she was a child, and she is used to it.
Now this isolation, exclusion of her, verbal attack on her overwhelmed Pietro. If in the past, she was looked down upon and insulted, she could run far away and couldn't be provoked, but she could afford to hide; But now in school, she has nowhere to run, as long as it is not a holiday, she will see those people every day, and she will suffer those verbal attacks every day, the school is a prison for her, there is nowhere to escape, as long as she sees the eyes of others, she will make up a lot of sarcastic words in her brain.
In addition, Tony chose a very famous school, Tony was a man of the year in this school, but not everyone is a genius like Tony, he is kind, but he doesn't take into account the actual situation.
Petero's experience made her feel a little inferior, and now she can't compare her studies, family background, and appearance, which is difficult for adults to understand.
"Let them say okay, the mouth grows on others, and we can't control it."
"I don't want to go to school anymore, I'll follow you in the future, brother. I can do laundry, I learn to cook, I don't want to go to school anymore. Pietro finally burst into tears.
Uchiha Itachi was also as big as a bucket for a while, he was not a god, he didn't have Pietro's experience, he couldn't fully understand Pietro's mood, and he didn't have a child.
"I don't envy them, with the life I have now, I am very content. In my dreams I would thank God, but why did they humiliate me, why did I do nothing, did not eat their bread, did not steal their pencils, why did they humiliate me. The crying narration made Uchiha Itachi very distressed, and he couldn't help but be a little worried about Pietro's mental state, and subconsciously opened the writing wheel.
This look immediately shocked him, only to see the strange energy in Pietro's body come out again, and this time it was not a candle in the wind, but spread quickly to the whole body like a spark.
This crimson energy, the color of which was like blood in the eyes of the Uchiha Itachi, like red wine, although faint, exuded a terrifying power that made the heart palpitate.
What's going on?! Could it be that this energy only appears when there are great mood swings? Just like when I saw her for the first time, the Uchiha Itachi's attack frightened the little girl, and this energy also appeared, but why did it come so violently this time?
Could it be because he used chakra to probe her body every once in a while? Or is it because you are well nourished and well-fed during this time?
But now it was too late to think about this, and the energy in Pietro's body surged to her head, and even the red mist on her body surface had overflowed. The Uchiha Itachi was taken aback, for fear that this energy would go berserk and directly turn Pietro's brain into a pulp, even if it was not physical, the impact on the mental level would be unbearable.
Before he could react, Pietro's facial features began to change slightly, and the whole face seemed to be between illusion and reality, and the scene was very weird.
“??” "Petero, calm down!"
"What are you doing to me, I obviously didn't do anything, I didn't do anything. Woo~~"
"You ......"
Uchiha Itachi was shocked, is this still Pietro? How did the ugly duckling from before turn into a white swan in an instant? The red mist on her skin had disappeared, but her skin had turned much whiter, and the changes were so abrupt.
Shocked, Uchiha Itachi takes Pietro to the bathroom.
"Look, do you feel anything uncomfortable?"
"Ah!!! Who's this?!! Who?! Pietro was startled, screamed, and hurriedly blocked his eyes with his hand, but he couldn't help but peek, she was so beautiful in the mirror.
"This ...... Is this me? Pietro slowly stretched out his fingers and stroked himself in the mirror.
"Brother, I knew that you were a magician, and you made me beautiful, so beautiful." Pietro couldn't have been happier.
"I didn't do it, it was you, although I don't know why, but that power is very powerful."
"I don't believe it, it must have been you, brother, you have been encouraging me, I know, I know. Thank you brother, in fact, my name is not Pietro, my real name is Wanda, Pietro is my brother, he died, starved, woo...... If I had met you sooner, he wouldn't have died, woo......"
"The name doesn't matter, the important thing is that I really didn't do it, I said it, I won't lie to you."
"I know, I know, my brother is the best. I feel so dizzy, so dizzy, brother, I'm scared, am I dreaming, after waking up, I'm still that ugly girl, I don't sleep, don't sleep......"
Looking at Pietro, who fell into a deep sleep in his arms...... Wanda, Uchiha Itachi hasn't come back to his senses yet, Wanda at this time, there is no red energy in his body just now, if it is a transformation technique or something, it should have disappeared, but why are Wanda's facial features and skin still maintained after the change?
Is it really completely changed? What kind of power is this? Is it because I am overdrawn that I am asleep now? Will it cause irreversible damage to the body?
Uchiha Itachi couldn't see what was going on, so he had to put Wanda on the bed and take her to Tony for a check-up when she woke up. Itachi Uchiha stretched out his finger and pressed it on Wanda's face, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, he picked up the mirror on the table and gently placed it on Wanda's pillow.
