Hero, you have crossed [Comprehensive Yingmei]

It was an accident.

Lucas had been roaming the streets of Gotham for almost two years when he met Bruce Wayne.At that time, he was full of rejection of the two facts of becoming 'Lucas' and coming to this world... Unfortunately, Gotham is obviously not a place where visitors from other worlds will leave any good memories City.

all in all.That was an accident.

At that time, Lucas did not choose to save the Wayne family out of any compassionate or humanitarian thoughts—after all, until he looked up and saw those blue eyes, he didn't think of those blue eyes for a moment. The man who had been his true childhood hero in the past.

Yes, Lucas didn't even recognize the friendly boy who handed him the banknote at first was Bruce Wayne, the future Batman, his childhood idol...until he caught sight of the incomparable Seeing the eye-catching "Zorro" poster, Lucas was startled suddenly, realizing that he was 'witnessing' something.

He is witnessing a pure black joke born from Gotham, and he is witnessing a person falling into a deeper darkness...

And that joke, that mass of darkness, was once the dark knight he loved deeply when he was young.

That was the first time Lucas woke up from the repulsion and boredom, and realized that he really came to a 'world'.This was no longer a nagging nightmare, but a life he had to get on with.

yeah, see.Even Bruce Wayne is in front of you.Even he has to go to the fate that has been decided——

— But what is fate?

Is it something that has been decided?Are those things that seem to be 'correct'?Is it the Batman that must be born, or the Light of Gotham that must be awakened?

...If fate is the despair after losing a loved one, a life of struggle with pain, rightness, and self...then why is this?

Lucas could even hear the heavy breathing of the dirty man in the alley.

And this is the fate of Bruce Wayne?

———Lucas really didn’t think much about it at the time, after all, he was not a person with much sense of justice.At that time, he was even full of anger towards the whole world... During the two years Lucas wandered in Gotham, he had witnessed the filth and evil that he had never seen in his entire life.He loathed the city, and he loathed the world with it.

So he didn't actually want to save anyone.If anything - he does like Batman.But he doesn't buy into the crap 'the world needs Batman'...the world doesn't need anyone.The world can go on without anyone.And fate?Let fate eat shit.

So Lucas chose to rescue him, completely and completely extinguishing the possibility of Bruce Wayne becoming Batman.He has never been complacent about it, but he does have a pleasure to take revenge on the world...

———Until one day, Hernan happily shared happiness with him:

'I picked up a vampire in Gotham'.

...and that was Kirk Longstone.'Manbat' in the usual worldline, another poor guy.

'The world needs Batman. '

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————— ——

Lucas's astonishment lasted less than two seconds, after all, his reflexes were indeed extraordinary.Little Falcone turned his head very 'naturally', as if he really didn't know Bruce Wayne.

Even the two subordinates following him didn't notice Lucas' abnormality.Until such a moment, Lucas didn't expect that he was such a person who could pretend - he didn't even quicken his pace to escape from here, only the violent heartbeat proved that he was indeed not calm.

'Why is his hidden headset notifying him of my presence? ’ For a moment Lucas even thought that the other party was still the same Batman who punched Arkham and kicked the Justice League.But soon he regained his composure... realizing that his panic was completely inexplicable.

How bad can it be? - No, there is no 'worst' at all.After all, why should he feel guilty about Bruce Wayne?

This situation is nothing more than two possibilities: Wayne recognized that he saved their family; Wayne knew his 'feat' four years ago.

...And when the other person is not Batman, nor his friend, neither of these situations matters.

Lucas forced himself to adjust his mentality.Without squinting, he was guided by several subordinates to the main hall of the dinner party, where he was directly stuck under a flamboyant Roman column.

There is less than an hour before the charity show will officially start, but just looking at the expressions on the faces of these wealthy people and their agents, it gives people the illusion that the show is just now.

Lucas looked at this group of well-dressed upper-class people with a blank expression, watching them discussing "poor orphans", "unfortunate unemployed", "vagrants with nowhere to live" in this bright and spacious hall with smiles on their lips '... They exchanged how much money they would donate in a moment, and lamented each other's generosity.Then naturally chatted about the next project and the next business.

Gotham.

This is Gotham.Here is a silhouette of the dark side of the world.It's this group of bright and beautiful, and that group of ragged clothes... the hopeless, his hometown.

Lucas watched all this silently, without any disturbance in his heart.The sense of inhumanity in his body became even stronger when he quieted down.This effectively dispelled the idea of ​​a few investors who had just come to Gotham to strike up a conversation, and made him stand leisurely until the start of the fundraising.

Bruce Wayne stepped onto the stage smiling, his lights paled him like a dummy.

Lucas' eyes subconsciously followed his figure, and he silently moved his eyes away until the other's eyes also turned to this side.

……

This feels actually very strange.Lucas himself couldn't explain why... but he did seem to have an inexplicably sorry feeling for Wayne... he didn't even want to look him in the eye.

This made Lucas feel anxious for a while.

And Bruce standing in the stands is not a fool.He also found that Lucas Falcone was 'hiding' himself.It was very strange... and it also succeeded in deepening Bruce's curiosity.

But fortunately, he has always been a rather restrained person.Bruce has never forgotten that Lucas should be a dangerous person—so he no longer actively looks at him, but smiles and thanks everyone in the audience.And after answering the questions of several live broadcast reporters, he nodded slightly, indicating that the host can go on stage to start the fundraising auction.

Mr. Wayne was surrounded by several people as soon as he got off the stage.He is undoubtedly the most important person worth making friends with at this fundraiser.After all, the current Wayne Group has reached an unprecedented peak, whether it is economic strength on the surface or political energy behind the scenes.As the only son of Thomas Wayne, Bruce is even more like the Prince of Gotham.

Lucas watched this scene from the corner of his eye, and the anxiety in his heart boiled up.Subconsciously, he crossed his arms and tried to think about why his mentality was out of balance.

——What is he guilty of?

He saved two good people, he saved the parents of childhood idols.He prevented a chain of tragedies from being born.If he had to talk about being sorry, the one he was most sorry for should be Kirk.

... Even if his decision has a bit of arrogance of a time traveler.Even if it's probably better for Gotham if he doesn't...but so what?

...Lucas couldn't figure out where his guilt and guilt came from.He didn't understand why he felt so uncomfortable seeing the star-studded Bruce Wayne and wanted to turn around and run away.

He pinched his left arm, and the tailored suit he pinched was wrinkled again.

At the moment when Lucas decided to leave early because of his upset... The sudden strong earthy smell and the sudden sense of crisis in his mind made him instinctively look towards the entrance.

"This next collectible is from the proud Wayne family of Gotham...Wow, this, this is amazing. This is a very famous gun!"

The host's tone rose a lot unconsciously.The professional's gaffe caused the elites in the audience to whisper.

Lucas, of course, was not on the list.At this moment, there was no other sound in his ears - he let go of his hand and stared straight in the direction of the door.My ears were full of viscous, weird sounds like rolling mud.

"...Hiss, what smell..." Someone complained quietly. "Strange, did you smell it?"

"This collection can be said to be a legendary antique - although Mr. Wayne emphasized that he can't judge its authenticity, this gun has a history of at least 300 years..."

"Gentlemen and ladies! Behold—the murder weapon of Jesus, the spear of Longinus!"

Before the gun with extremely negative religious significance was released, someone screamed.The sweaty host was still smiling under the strong light on the stage, but the smile soon froze on his face.

Lucas straightened up.He clenched his fists unhappily.Many people stood up while screaming in panic.But Lucas still has only one focus——

He looked at Bruce Wayne who was surrounded by a group of people.

And Bruce Wayne looked at the mud monster struggling and surging at the door... exuding a salty smell.

Then the lump of mud yelled:

"WHERE IS BATMAN!!!!"

"Come out and die!! You son of a bitch, bloody wretch—"
