[Comprehensive Anglo-American] To be a king can save the world

Ryan and Bruce didn't get tired of being outside for long, because the shadows cast by the buildings changed over time, and Ryan was inevitably exposed to the sun.

Even the sunset, which is coated with orange yellow, is still lethal to dead objects. The sun's rays permeate the air, and the contact with the epidermis brings bursts of stinging pain.

'Lyan Brea' is dying, Ryan thought.

The degree of favorability has not made any progress, because Batman only has Gotham in his heart, if he had known earlier, he might as well have arranged for himself to be the incarnation of Gotham.

Who would have thought?Batman doesn't love himself, no, he does, he just does.

Don't love Ryan.

The task energy is not without progress, on the contrary, it has increased quite a bit. It seems that the superiors still like this scene, probably because they are used to watching Ryan play around with the task target, and the task target is still dead set on Ryan.

It's rare to see a task target who talks sweetly to Ryan on the surface, insists on you, and is as calm as a mountain in the heart, which more or less makes the superiors amused.

The energy given is quite generous.

It won't be long before Ryan is done with this quest... as it should be under normal circumstances.

It may be that the higher-ups have seen Ryan's plan to leave the field, and they have controlled the growth of energy and maintained it at a level that is about to reach the peak but has not yet reached the peak.

If Bruce's favorability can reach more than [-], the natural energy provided can fill the energy bar.

The key is that Bruce's goodwill has been as steady as a mountain, and the high-ranking person clearly has an attitude of watching the excitement and will never give Ryan a little energy.

The pressure of time and tasks made Ryan become anxious.

Even Ryan's attitude towards Bruce changed from eager to lukewarm.

Bruce squinted at Ryan beside him, and his heart beat faster unconsciously.

Ryan lowered his head slightly, the orange sunlight dyed most of his face red, his eyelashes cast a fan-shaped shadow on his cheeks, his expression was a little far from the secular world, like a fairy who fell into the mortal world in vain.

What was he thinking about?

Ryan raised his head and looked at Bruce. There were two clear gemstones in his saffron eyes, and Bruce's slightly obsessed face was completely reflected in the mirror.

Only then did Bruce realize that he had unconsciously blurted out the question in his heart.

Bruce turned the obsessed expression on his face into a fascinated smile, and his blue-gray eyes looked at Ryan affectionately.

"What are you thinking?"

Ryan replied: "I wonder if the tomatoes in the backyard are ripe."

"I'll take a look with you?" Bruce said moving.

Ryan shook his head: "I can do it myself." After speaking, Ryan walked to the backyard.

In the past few days in Ilios, Bruce seemed to have stripped away the calmness and indifference of the past, and devoted himself to a different life with Ryan.

When he looked at Ryan, his eyes, which were always forbearing, stared at Ryan with love and possessiveness without any concealment.

Every time I can see Ryan's scalp is numb and his whole body is stiff, if it is not for the bastard who does not move at all, Ryan will believe that Batman loves him.

After Ryan left, Bruce returned to the posture of leaning against the wall to watch the sunset. He lazily hooked down his sunglasses to block those eyes full of possessiveness. He blinked and the emotions that did not belong to Batman faded away, and he changed again. You have to be calm and forbearing.

Bruce Wayne sank, and Batman reappeared in his place.

Bruce said abruptly: "What's going on in Gotham recently?"

No one noticed that in the shadows under the railing stood a boy in night clothes holding a knife.

The boy described to Blustein what happened in Gotham recently in succinct words. Gotham without Batman has not become a mess. Of course, this is only temporary.

When Batman didn't show up in Gotham for two nights in a row, the criminals became restless, and they celebrated the rare two days without Batman in the night with fire lights and gunfire.

These criminals were suppressed by the vigilantes of the Bat family one by one. Batman's disciples, without exception, all inherited Batman's vigorous and resolute style of acting. Their actions were planned and executed extremely fast.

This week, Gotham passed smoothly.

But this is not a head, even if the Bat family still exists, the criminals still seem to be beaten up, trying to do some damage every day, as long as Batman is gone, the criminals will instinctively become excited.

During this period of time, the vigilantes of the Bat Family have suffered.

Bruce would let Ryan tie him to Greece for two purposes, one is to prepare for Batman's succession.

He has no intention of taking off Batman's cape for the time being, but Bruce will eventually grow old, and he will no longer be able to go out at night because his body is no longer strong, or he will die in a certain place in Gotham because of an operation against criminals. place.

In order to avoid the accident that no one inherits Batman's mantle, there must be someone who can get Bruce's affirmation and become the next heir to the mantle.

The second is to establish the majesty of the Bat family. Most of the criminals in Gotham know the existence of the Bat family, but it is still Batman and his minions that stop in their memory.

Except for Jason, who made a name for himself in the West End under the name of the Red Hood, but the Red Hood is not part of the Bat-family.

Bruce wants them to know that the Bat-family is not just Batman and his minions, he wants the criminals to remember every member of the Bat-family and let them know that what they see as a minion is when Batman is not around. Under such circumstances, Gotham can still be supported.

And will replace Batman as their fear.

And, he needs to get along with Ryan alone, lower the opponent's alertness, and secretly investigate Ryan's composition, weaknesses, and others.

There is also a more secret point, Bruce did not explain to the Bat-family that he and Ryan came here.

He gave himself a vacation.

Everything that happened in Ilios made Bruce feel interesting and curious. It was just the trivial matters of life, and Bruce never got tired of it. These simple things were too relaxing and comfortable for Bruce, who had been in a state of nervous tension all year round.

When in Gotham, all his life-related content was handled by Alfred.

So Bruce has never experienced, doing his own laundry, watering the flowers, cleaning, watching the ball game, participating in the carnival of the town, or just staring at the sunset, these are all things he has never done.

He experienced the life that Bruce Wayne should have as an ordinary person in Ilios, and this kind of life satisfied and relaxed him.

The same should be true of Batman's life after retirement. Perhaps, he can really find such a comfortable and livable beautiful town with Ryan after Batman retires, and live a tedious and ordinary life.

Gotham can't live without Batman, so find someone to inherit Batman's mantle, then Batman will last forever.

Bruce Wayne couldn't spend his life fighting criminals in Gotham.

He didn't notice that he had included Ryan in his retirement plans.

After almost 2 minutes of silence, Damian said abruptly, "Father."

"Huh?" Bruce replied subconsciously, he paused, closed his eyes and rubbed his temples.

He noticed a serious problem, and his time in Ilios had greatly weakened his fighting spirit and morale, and his thinking had also become dull, which was a great threat to Batman.

It was like soaking the sharp blade in oxidized water, and it was quickly coated with a layer of rust, making this big killer lose its original function.

But in just one week, Bruce's state of mind became so tired——

Had he been so tired?

Damian hesitated for a moment before asking, "Father, when are you going back to Gotham?"

"I'll be back soon."

Damian heaved a sigh of relief when he got the answer he wanted. He was eager to prove that he was independent enough in front of Batman, but Gotham without Batman became more dangerous and chaotic than ever.

Although Damian is very reluctant, he must admit that Gotham cannot live without Batman.

It can be said that Bruce deliberately planned to be taken away by Ryan, and he has always maintained contact with Gotham.

"No need to come again, I will go back as soon as possible."

Damian nodded, remembering that Bruce couldn't see again, he gave an 'hmm' as a reply, and asked, "Then... what about him?"

Damian really doesn't want to call Ryan 'Bruce', that's his father's name. Damian respects Bruce very much, and he's not as playful in this regard as other people, maybe it's because of the assassin he received when he was young. The education of the alliance made him respect his elders very much.

"His physical condition is deteriorating."

Damian, who understood Bruce's hidden meaning, nodded clearly. Bruce could no longer feel Damian's presence when the wind blew, and Damian left.

Bruce walked to the backyard, and Ryan was squatting by the garden wearing a straw hat with his back facing him, with braids hanging behind his waist, and beside him was a small basket full of bright red tomatoes.

The skins of the well-cared-for tomatoes are thin, and the sweet and sour juice rolls under the skins, and they are piled up one by one in a basket covered with white cloth.

From the back it looks like a jerk.

The thought made Bruce feel strangely satisfied.

At this time,

Ryan stood on tiptoe, his trousers hugged his round buttocks tightly, especially the seams that were in the shadows.

Bruce leaned against the wall and looked at Ryan's buttocks for a while with a dark gaze, only to find that Ryan didn't pay any attention to his intentions, so he walked towards Ryan.

It wasn't until Bruce's shadow blocked part of Ryan's sight that Ryan noticed him. The scissors in his hand stopped for a moment, and then cut off a small tomato and put it in the basket.

Bruce didn't know if Ryan was pretending not to notice him, or if he really didn't.

Bruce prefers that Ryan really doesn't notice him, and that Ryan's frailty is worse than he thought.

Bruce could feel that the black mist remaining in his body was rapidly dissipating, to the point where he couldn't restrain Bruce's physical instincts at all, and all his senses were recovering.

That's why he could perceive Damian immediately.

In contrast, Ryan became weaker and weaker, and even that beautiful white hair was losing its luster.

Bruce grabbed a small tomato from the basket and fed it into his mouth without hesitation.

Ryan's lips twitched. He wanted to say something but didn't say anything, but the emotion of 'tomatoes were not washed' was quite obvious in those eyes.

Bruce didn't care, and picked up another one and handed it to Ryan's mouth. The slightly rough thumb was under Ryan's lips, and the bright red fruit rubbed against Ryan's lips. For a while, Bruce couldn't tell it was Ryan's mouth. Ann's lips are redder or the fruit is redder.

Seeing that Ryan didn't have the desire to open his lips, Bruce said, "It's very sweet." For some reason, his voice was a little hoarse.

Ryan thought for a while, and opened his lips to bite down on the tomato. In order to maintain the normal condition of his body with the lowest magic power, Ryan had already removed his sense of smell and taste.

He couldn't taste what that tomato tasted like.

Ryan licked his lips and looked at Bruce's eyes that had become a little dark in vain. He was in a bad mood, so he stood up immediately, his eyes darkened, and he almost fell down.

Bruce quickly hugged Ryan without opening his mouth, just waiting for Ryan to tell him.

Ryan just said lightly: "I'm a little dizzy after squatting for a long time."

Bruce let go of him with a 'huh'.

Ryan glanced at Bruce, and was relieved to see that Bruce didn't have such thoughts again.
