The next day, Lucas got up early in high spirits after a good night's rest.

"Come on, let's go have breakfast." Hope, who spent the whole day in the hotel yesterday, said excitedly.

"Okay." Lucas said, "You are still so positive."

"That's right, the world is so big, it's best to eat, okay?" Hope fluttered his feathers.

When they went to the Lex Building yesterday, they couldn't take Hope with them, so they left him in the hotel. When they came back with Raven, Lucas had something on his mind, so Hope completely missed yesterday's pile of things. It's such a bad thing, but the little fat bird still looks like it's nothing.

Lucas got Hope toast and two fried eggs and salad for himself.

While eating, I was scrolling through my phone, which was filled with yesterday’s live news. Since there were a lot of reporters at the scene, the attached pictures and videos were very clear, which just made up for the missing perspective yesterday.

Lucas looked at it carefully and didn't notice the black figure beside him.

"Whoaaah!"

Hope's scream startled Lucas. He looked up and found Raven stuffing Hope's wings into his mouth with no expression on his face.

"Wait a minute, you can't eat this!" Lucas quickly rescued Hope from Raven's mouth.

"Can't eat...why." Raven still had Hope's hair in her mouth.

"Uuuuuuuuuah...Lucas, this crazy woman is going to eat me!" Hope was severely frightened, and trembled on Lucas's shoulder.

"You look delicious," Raven said to Hope seriously.

"I don't like it... No, I can't eat it at all!"

"No, you have a lot of meat."

"This has nothing to do with whether there is a lot of meat or not!"

It was odd how seamless communication between Hope and Raven was.

"Miss Raven, can you hear Hope?"

"Okay." Raven nodded.

"I just said that I am a human being." Hope said proudly at first, and then he realized what he was doing. His little eyes stared at Raven in disbelief, "You can even hear me talking, and you actually want to eat me!"

"Yes." Raven nodded again.

"You!" Hope looked so angry that she almost fainted.

Lucas pushed his untouched salad in front of Raven, "If you are really hungry, just eat my share."

Raven looked down at the green salad, her dark eyes a little hollower than before, and her voice was low, "Are you eating grass?"

"Um..." Lucas said helplessly, "Then what do you like to eat?"

Raven remembered the delicious food she had eaten yesterday and licked her lips subconsciously, "Soft, sweet, and delicious."

"Soft? Sweet? You mean... cake?"

Is that called a cake?

Raven blinked, then nodded.

Eat cake in the morning...

Lucas looked at Raven's dark eyes that looked strange at first, but were actually as innocent as a child, and sighed helplessly, "Okay, just for once, I can't eat cake for breakfast next time."

Although Raven didn't understand what Lucas meant, it didn't stop her from understanding that if she didn't agree, she wouldn't have to eat the delicious cake, so she obediently agreed.

"it is good."

While Lucas was getting the cake for Raven, others were coming down to have breakfast one after another.

"Good morning, Lucas," Peter greeted as he yawned.

"Morning." Harry nodded slightly.

"Good morning." Gwen said with a bright smile.

"Good morning..." Mindy said sleepily, her little purple head moving little by little.

"What's wrong? You didn't have any rest yesterday?" Lucas asked with concern.

"Don't mention it." Mindy rubbed her eyes and complained resentfully, "The new guy... is so weird. He doesn't talk all night long, floats in the air with his legs crossed, and keeps staring at me. I can’t even sleep.”

Raven has no common sense about modern life. Even if she takes her back to the hotel, Lucas doesn't trust her to live in a room by herself, so he asks Mindy to share a room with Raven and take care of her by the way. But he didn't expect that things would turn out differently. It became like this.

Lucas was speechless and choked, "...I'm sorry to trouble you, Mindy."

Mindy patted her cheek, "It's okay, I'm awake."

As a hero who is accustomed to acting at night, Mindy was not mentally depressed due to an improper night's rest. The main reason was that when Raven looked at her, a chill rose from behind her, which really refreshed her mind. This happens over and over again throughout the night, and it will wilt even if it doesn't.

Lucas put the small cake on the plate, glanced at Raven who was sitting obediently on the chair, and said, "There is indeed something special about Miss Raven. She can hear Hope's voice."

Hope, whose heart rested on Lucas' shoulder with lingering fear, couldn't help but tremble, "Don't mention her! Now that I can hear it, she actually wants to eat me!"

"Eat...eat you? What does this mean?"

"How do I know? I was eating my meal properly, and she suddenly grabbed me and stuffed it into her mouth!"

Mindy changed Hope's perspective and said, "Well... that's really scary."

"Yeah." Hope quickly flew to Mindy's shoulder. He didn't want to go back with Lucas and be at the same table as Raven.

Lucas had no objection to Hope's behavior and expressed his understanding. He had indeed been frightened a lot just now.

"cake."

Lucas placed the plate with the cake in front of Raven.

Raven's eyes suddenly lit up. She was about to grab the cake when she saw it, which made Lucas feel tired. He quickly grabbed Raven's arm and put the fork into her hand.

"use this."

"Oh."

Seeing that Raven had finally settled down, Lucas could finally continue to enjoy his breakfast.

It wasn't until he was almost finishing breakfast that he realized that someone hadn't come down to have breakfast.

When Tim comes to school, he always wears thick foundation to hide the bruises under his eyes, and he can't help but fall asleep on the table during class.

It can be said that he was tired from working at Wayne Group and Robin, but last night, Tim couldn't be Robin again, right? Or stayed up late again?

After finishing the small cake on the plate, Raven quickly noticed Lucas's absent-mindedness, "Lucas, you are worried about the person yesterday."

"Do you have the ability to detect other people's emotions?" Lucas and Raven looked at each other and couldn't help but ask.

"I can see it." Raven looked at Lucas and said confusedly: "But I don't understand why."

Lucas sighed softly. This was why he took Raven in even though he clearly thought she was suspicious. She really had a strange temperament about her that would follow her if she was deceived!

"I'm very strong." Raven looked at Lucas and said in a confused manner, "Unless I encounter..."

When he said this, Raven got stuck for the first time and gently skipped the word, "Don't worry about me."

"Who did you meet?" Lucas couldn't help but ask.

Raven's face turned pale and she bit her lip and said nothing.

"I don't know how to say it, or... I can't say it."

Raven looked at Lucas in surprise and nodded quickly.

Sangong is a very powerful demon. If someone calls his name, he will feel it immediately, let alone Raven, who is connected to him by blood. Whenever Raven mentions Sangong's name, he can rely on it. The power of bloodline appears directly here.

Lucas understood after seeing Raven's reaction, "I can't even mention his name. Such a difficult enemy..."

Raven pursed her lips. She once again thought of Acharath that turned into scorched earth. The smell of blood and gun smoke seemed to appear on the tip of her nose once.

She began to tremble slightly, the table shook, the plates moved left and right, and the roses on the table turned gray.

"Miss Raven!"

Lucas immediately noticed something was wrong with Raven and shouted her name sharply. He saw that the whites of Raven's eyes seemed to be slowly turning black, which was obviously not good.

Fortunately, Raven was just a little sad, and was immediately brought back to his senses by Lucas's raised voice.

Looking at the withered rose, Raven knew that she had almost lost control again just now. She forced herself to suppress her emotions and saw Lucas' inquiring eyes.

no offence.

"You...are not afraid?" she asked.

"Huh? It's okay." Lucas said, "What's more, aren't you under control?"

"...That's not the case." Raven raised her hand and touched the gray rose petals. The fragile petals turned into flying ash and dispersed in an instant.

"I can't have mood swings, it's very dangerous, and you will become unlucky around me, so..." Raven paused, "After helping you, I will leave."

The earth is very good, but Raven does not dare to stay here. She is afraid that this beautiful place will become deserted because of her.

"Is that really what you think?"

"……Um."

"But why don't your eyes say that?" Lucas said.

"Huh?" Raven stroked her face blankly, "I..."

"Speaking of which, according to you, you are not from this world?" Lucas asked.

"...Acharath, I am from Acharath." Raven said after a few seconds of silence, "But that place has been destroyed."

"why?"

"My reasons."

Lucas was stunned, "Is it because you lost control just now?"

Raven shook his head, "No, it's the demon army."

"So, your hometown was destroyed by the demon army, so why should you blame yourself?"

"Because...because, I..."

Raven's mind went blank. Do you want to say it? She is actually half a demon...it's the Three Palaces thing...

Seeing the confusion on that pretty face, Lucas wanted to sigh again. He obviously didn't say anything harsh, but he always felt that he was forcing the trembling little animal.

Are you serious?

A small animal that can summon monsters at any time for bondage play?

"It doesn't matter, you can take your time." Lucas said.

was gently put down...

Raven winked, "That's very kind of you, Lucas."

Why has it suddenly reached this point?

Lucas twitched the corner of his mouth and said humbly, "You're welcome, Miss Raven."

"Raven, call me Raven," Raven said. "This is my name."

When Lucas knocked on Tim's door, he still couldn't figure out where Raven's trust in him came from.

Tim opened the door, coffee still in hand, "Good morning, Lucas."

He was wearing the same clothes as yesterday, which were full of wrinkles. It looked like he had stayed up all night.

"Actually, it's already past lunch time." Lucas handed them the sandwiches and walked into the room.

"You're staying up late again, can't you take a break?"

"Oh, thank you." Tim took the sandwich and moved it aside.

The room had the curtains drawn, but it was not dark because the light from the three screens placed on the table illuminated the entire room.

While eating the sandwich that Lucas brought him, Tim said, "Hmm... I checked all the intelligence and movements of those Superman reserves. I originally planned to go to bed early... um..."

These things did not take much time for Tim. After sorting out the information, he suddenly remembered that he had not had information about his second brother for several months. Although this was quite normal for the mysterious Bat family, but Jason didn't even go back to his favorite safe house, which wasn't normal.

After consulting all the satellites, Tim finally caught a clue.

Jason went to Kamal Taj.

why?

Tim knew that Jason had the talent of a mage, and the Great Caste Blade he mastered even had a special attack effect on villains and demons. However, Jason himself was not interested in it and rarely used this talent. But now he He took the initiative to go to the gathering place of mages.

Could it be that the Bat Family is really going to have its own mage?

"Well, anyway, I checked something else." Tim said to Lucas, "What about you? What did you learn from the raven?"

"Her name is Raven," Lucas said.

"Yeah." Tim waited for Lucas' follow-up, but he stopped talking, "No?"

"No more." Lucas said. "She seems to have serious psychological problems. I think there may be relatives of hers in the demon army."

"How did you come to this conclusion?"

"She told me that her hometown was destroyed by the demon army, but she is still alive and can even know their next action plan. Apart from knowing the top leaders of the demon army, there is no other possibility." Lucas said calmly said.

Of course, the reason for him to draw the conclusion was that Raven blamed herself very much for this. She believed that she was the cause of the destruction of her hometown and that she had caused the demon army.

She is really a simple girl, and a simple profile can tell a lot about her.

"so……"

This information was said to be important or unimportant, and Tim struggled with certain points.

"Why doesn't she want to communicate with me?"

Lucas silently took out the mechanical remains in the palm of his hand, "What do you think?"

Looking at the corpses of those bugs, Tim laughed dryly and stopped talking.

"Anyway, Peter wants to go see the Superman statue this afternoon, will you go?" Lucas asked.

Tim waved his hand, "I won't go. There's nothing new in Metropolis for me. You guys have fun."

He blinked, "I just want to catch up on some sleep first."
