My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

Eric wakes up from a coma.

He had a long dream, dreaming that he was chased by Omega, captured by him to Gotham, brainwashed, and became his accomplice.

Then the world was ruled by him, and all became trampled slavery and death.

This dream was so real that he was still in a trance when he just woke up.

Turning over and waking up from the closed and dark room, everything in front of me is so strange.

He stroked his chest, and there was still some pain in his heart.

Every breath felt extremely difficult.

But can barely walk.

What the titan gene medicine gave him was the recombination healing at the genetic level, which allowed him to heal as quickly as those superheroes with self-healing ability.

Of course, it is not as perverted as Wolverine and Deadpool. This is a slow healing process, so he was in a coma for more than a day.

Although there is still some weakness and pain, it is finally out of the life-threatening stage.

After checking, internal bleeding, extensive muscle and bone damage, it will take a few days to fully recover.

The current strength that can be exerted is half of the usual.

His armor was also severely damaged, and his defense was greatly weakened.

After checking my own situation, I found that it was a bit pessimistic.

Taking a slight breath, he looked around.

It was a small, dark room that seemed to be located underground, with only the light of a fire in the far passage.

There is only one bed and one toilet in the room.

Dirty floors are filled with stains and dust that cannot be removed.

It's like a prison cell.

Eric sat on the bed, leaning against the wall, trying to remember how he came to this place.

But I can't remember it anyway.

He only remembered that he was exhausted, his eyes turned black, and he fell from the sky, but he didn't know the specifics.

Why was he locked up in a cell? This is something that I can't think of anyway.

you're awake?

A voice came from outside.

It was the voice of a boy.

Who are you?

Eric had already noticed the boy who was leaning on the wall and talking to him, but the other party hadn't moved, so he ignored him.

My name is Tarr, and this is Camp New Babylon, an asylum camp in New Hampshire. Are you Batman?

In the dark, the boy asked Eric.

I am, but maybe not quite the Batman you imagined.

Tal sat on a small wooden bench outside the cell, with his back against the wall, and he moved his legs to allow blood to circulate through his paralyzed legs.

Why is it different? The Batman I imagined is a different existence of Gotham. Although I have never been to Gotham, my impression of Gotham is: damned, cursed, crazy, and deadly. ...that's how the Gotham Times daily life section - Gotham Impressions is published every Saturday.

Tal still remembers childhood memories, In that column, randomly selected citizens would be asked to complete a sentence with at least three words or less, using this sentence to describe Gotham: Gotham is...  ..”

The words I said above are the ones I've seen the most, of course, and there are others like, 'Gotham is Freeze', 'Gotham is Black Mask'... I I collected newspaper clippings when I was a child, and these villain words didn’t appear very often, but most of the negative words made my impression of Gotham not very good.”

Tal seemed to recall the happiness of his childhood, But then somehow he had a much better impression of Gotham City, because I saw your story in the newspaper one day, and that surprised me!

He tousled his long, unkempt hair and looked excited, So I smuggled a letter to the Gotham Times with my answer, 'Gotham is Batman,' and lo and behold, that's what I'm doing in Although they didn’t publish the answer written in the letter, they must have seen my answer.”

Tarr, who seems to be Batman's fanboy, shows Eric how he voted for himself by spitting.

Faced with an admirer of Batman, Eric was naturally embarrassed to explain to him that he was not Batman from Gotham.

Since he has reverence for Batman in his heart, let this hope not be shattered for the time being.

So, you put Batman in a cell?

After listening to Tal, Eric paused for a moment and asked him.

I...I'm sorry about this!

Tal bowed his head and apologized to Eric.

If you apologize, I will talk about it later, boy, and tell me what happened.

Eric now wondered first what the hell was going on.

Tal didn't hide anything, and told Eric exactly what happened before.

Is it Emiko?

Eric did not expect such a coincidence to fall in front of Emiko and his party.

And Emiko was brought to this camp again!

Should it be said that the development of things was really unexpected?

I'm really sorry, sorry, Batman. Tull continued to apologize to Eric.

Why are you so persistent in apologizing to me? Tal.

Tal, who was sitting on a wooden bench outside the cell, lowered his head in pain, Because it has nothing to do with personal grudges, it's just for survival.

Survive?

Yes.

Tal closed his eyes, and his voice became even lower, Someone needs my care, and I have a little sister.

Eric didn't know if what he said was true or not, but judging from his expression, he was more willing to believe that he was telling the truth.

I don't blame you, Tual.

Eric said so.

Ha, you are so noble.

Tal raised his head, clasped his hands together and rubbed them together, a forced smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Not noble, but because I understand you.

Erik stood up from the bed and stared into the dark hallway beyond the fence.

A long time ago, I met a person who was not far away from my time, but too far away from the time of this world. She once told me that she loved me.

Love? Although we are very familiar, but that word, I feel far away from me. Although I think she is a surging person, a woman with attractive charm, but I still can't think that she will say this word. Later ...She said she didn't love me, but humans! She fell in love with humans.

Eric thought of Diana's voice and smile, She said that because a person fell in love with humans, she would fight for humans, and fight for me. No matter how those humans she loved hurt her.

Eric looked in the direction of Tal, This made me understand a lot. What I want to pursue, the original intention of becoming a superhero, is also for human beings. I, like her, try to protect human beings in different ways!

After a pause, Eric said in a low voice: Even when you betrayed me.
