Chapter 994 The Man in the Dream
This is indeed a remarkable talent.

In the Justice League, many people can judge whether an opponent will use their hands or feet for the next attack based on the movement of their joints, and even more skilled people can distinguish between left and right.

Like Batman, he can even predict the direction of his opponent's next two moves, which is already a remarkable skill.

As for Cassandra, according to Giovanni, she can tell what a person wants to do just by looking at their posture. If you don't know the intricacies, you might really think she has the ability to foresee the future.

Currently, the only one in the Justice League who can replicate this ability is Superman. Only someone with X-ray vision and microscopic abilities can give you something similar to Cassandra.

Cassandra's skills have reached the level of superpowers, and she is not even ten years old yet.

“The man was standing there, he was in great pain, and he wanted someone to help him end his life. That was Cassandra’s true thought.”

Martian Hunter spoke slowly and deliberately. This guy, who usually wouldn't flinch even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, showed a rare expression on his face today.

"With her permission, I accessed Cassandra's memories from that time and experienced that ability from her perspective. It is indeed a remarkable skill."

With Giovanni and Martian Manhunter's endorsement, everyone finally believed in Cassandra's abilities. Now that topic could be put aside, and we could get to the real focus.

“But Cassandra did kill someone,” Black Lightning said after a long pause.

“Cassandra was just doing what she was supposed to do,” Diana stepped forward. “We all know that for mind pirates, living is more painful than dying. Rather than handing him over to those guys to satisfy their own interests, it’s better to send him on his way.”

"That's what they say, but legally..."

“Following the law will be fine.” Yang Le waved his hand. “Cassandra is too young to be convicted in any country. Even if she is convicted, it will be her parents’ responsibility. And her father has killed quite a few people, so one more charge won’t make a difference.”

After Yang Le explained, everyone realized that Cassandra was David Cain's daughter. Even after everything that had happened today, this news still shocked those who didn't know the truth.

“But I still don’t understand.” The Atom Crusher scratched his head. “Didn’t Cassandra run away from the League of Assassins because she hated killing? Then why would she go and kill the Mind Pirates?”

“I can explain that,” Martian Manhunter spoke again. “I experienced firsthand what Cassandra felt at that time. In her eyes, the Mind Pirate was no different from someone who was constantly wailing, with deafening ‘cries for help’ constantly ‘sounding’ in front of her.”

"Just as we all joined the Justice League for different reasons, but all to help others, Cassandra, after a long internal struggle, decided to help the Mind Pirates."

Batman understood. So that's why Cassandra had stood in front of the Mind Pirates for so long.

“Let’s leave this at that for now.” Batman stood up. “That kid just did what we couldn’t do. It seems Robin was right; sometimes adults really are not as good as children.”

...

The matter of Cassandra killing the Mind Pirates has temporarily come to an end. Because the Justice League is busy dealing with the aftermath, the originally planned addition of Cassandra to the Young Justice League has been postponed.

Yang Le was also afraid that this incident would leave Cassandra with some psychological trauma, but after returning home, he found that apart from being a little disappointed, Cassandra did not seem to be acting strangely.

However, as a responsible guardian (for the time being), Yang Le still felt it necessary to get to the bottom of things.

Of course, asking questions is an art in itself; directly asking might provoke Cassandra, so Yang Le needed to use a gentle approach. Fortunately, as a wearer of the Omnitrix, Yang Le was never short of solutions.

The Dust Fairy is undoubtedly a good choice. No matter how wary a person is, they will reveal their true self in their dreams.

Whether it's a beautiful dream, a nightmare, or just an ordinary dream, dreams are ultimately a continuation of reality, but also its complete opposite.

In reality, intelligent beings often arm themselves with various illusions, but in dreams they reveal their true selves.
The saying "what you think about during the day, you dream about at night" applies here; no one can lie to themselves.

Therefore, Yang Le decided to use the Dust Fairy to check Cassandra's condition. This was much gentler than any mind control or telepathic interaction. Even if there was a problem, Yang Le could comfort Cassandra with sweet dreams.

With a solution in mind, Yang Le calmed down and reassured Diana, who wanted to talk to Cassandra and had left work early, telling the Valkyrie that she could rest assured and leave everything to him.

Diana never lacked confidence in Yang Le, after all, it was the latter who helped her solve a lot of problems on Paradise Island.

As night fell, Yang Le, as always, took a storybook and went into Cassandra's bedroom, telling his daughter a story like a model father.

Accompanied by a whimsical story, a faint wisp of pink dust drifts out from the bedroom closet, slowly circling around Cassandra.

The soft dust made Cassandra's eyelids droop, and she eventually couldn't stay awake any longer and gently drifted off to sleep.

"Come in, she's asleep," Yang Le said softly. As soon as he finished speaking, the bedroom door slowly opened, and a petite figure floated in through the crack.

“Isn’t she adorable?” The Dust Fairy chuckled, covering her mouth. “I never thought I’d like children, but Cassandra has changed my mind.”

"Come on." Yang Le rolled his eyes at his clone. "Don't I know myself? My liking for children is all based on the premise that Cassandra is obedient. What do you think of Jason Todd?"

"Oh, then forget it." The Dust Fairy spun in the air. "Those who are not involved, please remain silent. I need to get to work."

Yang Le made a zipping motion near his mouth, then closed the storybook and tiptoed out of the house. He had put the little one to sleep, but the big one was waiting for him.

The Dust Fairy, hands on her hips, ignored the unhealthy adults and turned to take care of the adorable little princess.

The Dust Fairy, having used his powers, entered the dream in no time, but he soon realized something was wrong; this didn't seem to be Cassandra's dream.

"really weird."

The Dust Fairy froze. These weren't his words. In the dream world, was there anyone else who could speak besides him?
The Dust Fairy turned around sharply and saw a man wearing a black robe, with slightly curly long hair and skin as white as a corpse.

"You have a touch of dreamlike quality about you; do you belong here too?"

Said the Sleep Demon.
