Batman was silent, he was not surprised by T'Challa's choice.The experience of fighting side by side made Bruce the one who most affirmed the prince's character, and Batman's keen observation ability kept him calm most of the time.

But obviously Eric Stevens can't.Bruce watched Superman's adoptive brother instantly restrain his expression and tense his muscles again, obviously surprised and defensive.His expression was still very disdainful, but his disdain was mixed with confusion and confusion.

Batman has always been interested in Superman's black brother.Unlike Celia, Eric didn't change his last name, and it looked as if he never actually joined the Kent family.At first glance, this choice seems like the inevitable choice of an ungrateful orphan; but after Stevens tried to join S.H.I.E.L.D. and continued to join the battlefield, there was a softer explanation.

——He didn't want to involve the Kent family in his revenge plan, and he didn't want his bad news to come to his cherished family.

So at this moment, Batman couldn't help but play with his eyes.Bruce looked at Superman with meaningful eyes, but the other party was not looking at him, but frowned slightly worriedly.As if he didn't know how his adoptive brother would choose.

This made Bruce laugh.Clark is just too much to worry about -- he's such a caring, messy brat.

Superman was indeed very sad.Relying on his empathy for his brothers, he angrily stood on the opposite side of the Wakanda prince.But when he really faced T'Challa and felt the other party's equally bewildered and deeply shocked mood, he made another difficulty...

Just about 'what the hell did this country do to my brother? ! 'The anger quietly extinguished, leaving only the helplessness that could not be concealed.T'Challa's candor and apology are all too sincere.He looked really bad, like a kid who had lost his hopes and dreams.The meaning in the prince's words is very clear:

He is willing to die for his life, and he agrees with Eric to avenge him.For this reason, T'Challa was even willing to be killed by Eric, and he didn't even care about the impact his death would bring to his relatives and his country.

... So, is this something that can be obtained so easily?

Clark didn't know why he was sighing.Superman, who has never been compensated and rarely done justice, looks wistfully at his brother, and the Orphan of Krypton has quietly recoiled, no longer thinking that T'Challa is a damned person.Instead, he worried about the prince's fate.

In this way, Superman really cares about chaos, and Batman can't even see it clearly.Clark was not the only one who was stunned by T'Challa's words.Eric was equally astonished and in disbelief.

—For the past 20 years, Eric's past 20 years of hatred, it has been this hatred that has inspired him to grow.The boy who was supposed to be a prince turned out to be a lowly mercenary, a killer.Over the years, Eric has not been able to think of his father who was lying in a pool of blood. Even the tenderness of the Kent couple has become the source of his guilt.

He could not forget his father, nor did he dare to forget his father.Because of this, he has become more and more longing for and hating the hometown in his father's mouth.For this reason, he also hated more and more the blood relatives of the enemy who left him alone in a foreign country.

Then slack became a sin, and laughter a sin.Avengers shouldn't have happiness... Eric has been so motivated all these years.For this reason, he willingly stained his hands with blood and reaped his life.It is precisely because of this that he does not even dare and does not want to confess his 'secret' to his brother, because he has already changed from a victim to a perpetrator——

But at this moment, his enemy stood in front of him like a saint, watching the butcher calmly like a pure lamb.His cousin's eyes were calm, he neither begged for his forgiveness nor hypocritically 'repented'... The person he hated all his life was willing to give compensation in the most miserable and fairest way.

T'Challa was willing to be killed by him.Willing to die in front of his father as a son.

—to make up for his loss.

Eric had nothing to say.

Najadaka had nothing to say.

If Eric had never met the Kents, Clark and Celia, he might have pointed out several holes in the plan vitriolicly:

One, how could the shameful liar T'Chaka allow this to happen?Who has the bigger fist, the prince or His Majesty?After he 'returned' to Wakanda, wouldn't he be slaughtered by the enemy? Second, how could he secure the throne after killing the previous crown prince?Does he know how to govern the country...

But Eric, who had already understood what "home" was, was able to stand there without a word, looking at his cousin with the eyes of garbage.Eric can't use the above reasons to regain his advantage, because he knows that T'Challa is serious.

The suffocation brought by this silence is enough to kill.Eric felt the irritability of a failed plan for a while.He really didn't expect T'Challa to be such a person... what kind of person?

A... undead man.

As soon as this thought popped up, guilt and anger once again strangled the young avenger's throat, making it hard for him to breathe—is his father supposed to die?Could it be that in the past 20 years he...

But this completely silent environment suddenly shocked the young brother, Eric suddenly remembered something, suddenly realized something... Eric noticed that the kid following him hadn't been breathing for a while.

Eric was taken aback by this, and before he turned his head, he realized that Clark was waiting for his reply with bated breath.This made the black youth feel sad and at the same time dumbfounded... Then he clenched his fists.

——Whether Techara deserves to die or not, he cannot die today.Can not die in Clark, die in front of 'Superman'.

...He must never be a burden to Clark.Never be a weakness for Superman.

So this terrible silence that seemed to be devouring something was finally broken by the words of another party.As Bruce Wayne thought...no tragedy would happen today.

"Why should I do what you want me to do? You think I'll be satisfied at this level? He's a damned butcher, a hypocrite who pretends to be noble. The chairs under your asses are filled with the blood of your loved ones...and you think , can you erase all this with your own life?"

"Go back and tell T'Chaka—I'll take back everything that belongs to me, prince."

..........................................

"A disaster."

Bruce Wayne calmly defined everything that happened today.

It's hard to imagine that Batman, who is always calm, even so calm and cold, would say such nonsense... Fortunately, he is still 'Bruce Wayne' at this moment, otherwise the sense of disobedience must be stronger.

Superman, who had just sent Eric and Deadpool away, nodded silently.

He was rarely absent-minded—Superman had asked Eric to see him at the Kents for Christmas.Although Eric was subtly entangled, he still agreed.Clark suspected that he had broken the jar, after all, he didn't have to care about being involved or not now, his brother is Superman...

And Clark's silence made Bruce feel a little hesitant.Batman, who has never tried to explain anything to anyone, or retain anything, is very helpless and at a loss.He could have coaxed Clark the same way he coaxed the girls—he doubted it would work very well—but thought it would be ridiculous and disrespectful.So Prince Gotham stopped talking and waited for Superman to come back to his senses.

Fortunately, Clark didn't keep him waiting long.Superman froze and looked back at him, as if he just remembered that Batman didn't go out with T'Challa.The face of the young Kryptonian immediately became embarrassing, as if he was embarrassed.

This made Bruce stunned, and even slightly widened his eyes—I don't know if it was an illusion, but he actually felt... felt that the darkness that had been haunting Superman in the past had receded.At this time, Clark's expression no longer seemed to be pretending to cheer up, but was very real.

"Ah! Bruce..." Clark finally called out the name again in private, although the follow-up silence was very fast, as if he was ashamed of something. "Thank you very much."

At this point Clark has sorted out all this through Diana, Bruce is here for him, and even befriended Diana for this.This is simply unbelievable-and the unbelievable is not over yet, just now Bruce persuaded T'Challa to go away for him, and watched him let go of Eric...

——It's just...just...

Clark could no longer speak words of exclamation.He did suffer the biggest blow today, but he also received the strongest support.His relatives and lovers trust him and protect him... This makes Clark feel more relaxed than ever.

It turned out that the deepest blow he had thought could never break him.He can never be replaced, as long as he wants to win, then he will not lose.

It turned out that the only thing that could defeat him was his own fear.From the fear of 'losing'.He'd pushed Bruce away because of that fear, but luckily...

— Fortunately, in fact, he has never lost anything.

And Bruce Wayne looked at Superman, looked at the shy smile that he only showed when facing friends, and he shook his head, indicating that Clark didn't need to say that.

You always seem to be thanking me.

Batman wondered.

For trivial matters, Clark.You are always thanking me.But it's hard for me to say that word to you.

A faint smile appeared on Bruce Wayne's handsome face.He remembered that he said just now that Superman cares about chaos... so what is this at this moment?He didn't realize until now...that Superman hadn't reached the apex as he had imagined.

Someone grabbed him.Someone grabbed the strongest man.

Someone did what he didn't do in time.The man who turned Superman back to normal and gave Clark Kent hope again.

--Amazing.

Bruce sighed sincerely.This is something that a person like him can't do, 'honesty', 'love', 'caring', he seems to understand all these things, but he doesn't seem to be really clear about any of them.He really can't.Batman remembered accusing Superman of not being a good friend...but well, how could he be accused of that?

In the past, he also thought that he didn't care about all of this, it was all an illusion like a house wine.It wasn't until that night that the god who lost his cloak flew away in disappointment... Bruce finally understood that all this was not false.

Fortunately, it was not too late for him to understand.Now... it's time to give the careless fellow what he left behind.

The two blue-eyed youths took a breath as if making up their minds, and then said in unison:

"I want to chat with you."

"We should talk."

The author has something to say: Clark: Talk about my dreams, and...

Bruce: Let's talk about your illness, and who you were abused by.

Diana: Don’t take me with you while chatting, I’ll kill you two babies ^^

Tony: Huh?Clark asked me to meet for Thanksgiving?

Tomorrow is small twists and turns and enlightenment.I tried my best to write until I got the hang of it!
