Superhero Comic – Overlord’s Path

Chapter 60 24. The Last Reverberation

On the outskirts of Gotham City, the ruins of Wayne Manor.

The once gorgeous castle-type building has become a large pile of black broken bricks and tiles. The fire 5 days ago burned this worthless place to a white ground.

Alfred, who was wearing a long black trench coat, held an umbrella and stood in the middle of the ruins. In the early winter, his white hair was blown by the icy cold wind. The old butler who had served the Wayne family for most of his life pursed his lips, looking at Looking at the desolation around him, he sighed, bent down and picked up a gold badge of the Wayne family on the ground.

The originally luxurious badge has been melted by the fire, and a little trace of the original can still be seen vaguely. Ah Fu wiped its black surface clean with his gloved fingers, and then held it in his hand. He finally sighed He took a deep breath, stepped forward, and talked to the architects who gathered together to study the reconstruction.

Bruce planned to restore the original castle on the old site. When he was young and frivolous, Bruce hated this lonely castle, but now, like Alfred, he felt a little heartache.

This is all the legacy of the Wayne family. It is the best gift left by the fathers to future generations, carrying their spirit and will, but now, this best wealth has been reduced to ashes in his hands, which makes Bruce have a lot of hope. A deep sense of guilt.

Wearing a denim jacket, Bruce was wearing gloves and holding a cane in his hand, struggling to find valuable collectibles in the ruins. In addition to being distressed, he also wanted to do what a member of the Wayne family should do. Responsibility, he needs to rebuild his family on the ruins, and everything he has neglected.

More than ten years later, the hatred of his parents finally dissipated with Ducat's death. Although the light and shadow of the past still appeared in his dreams, they could no longer affect him. He felt that it was time for him to start a new life. To live, not only as Batman, but also as Bruce Wayne.

I thought a big hero would be different from ordinary people behind the scenes.

A female voice with a cheerful smile appeared behind Bruce. He propped up his body with a cane. The confrontation 4 days ago definitely left him with more than just the elimination of hatred. In fact, if it wasn’t for another annoying Guy meddling, he's probably about to say goodbye to these old friends in black and white.

The last descendant of the Wayne family turned around and saw Rachel who was carrying a black handbag, wearing a floral dress and a gray coat. This girl was standing on the edge of the ruins, stroking her long hair with her hands in the wind. Full of smiles.

Bruce wiped his face with his gloves, leaned on his body with a cane and walked towards her. Rachel stretched out her hand and wiped off the dust on Bruce's face. Looking at the ruins around her, she couldn't help but sighed.

I still remember when we were young, we used to play in the flower garden, look now, we have grown up, the flower garden has been destroyed, and you, Bruce, when did you start, you became so I don't know.

Her fingers slid across Bruce's face, there was a hint of intoxication in her eyes, and a hint of apology,

Seven years ago, I shouldn't have quarreled with you, and I shouldn't have taken you to Falconi's place. Afu told me that it was because you couldn't let go of your parents' death that you chose to go into exile. But I know what I said that night hurt you, and I'm sorry Bruce, you didn't deserve this.

Bruce Wayne shook his head, he held Rachel's slender waist with both hands, and the foreheads of the two were pressed together. He felt this faint, warm feeling, and he whispered,

It's all my choice, you don't have to feel bad, Rachel, it's all a path I chose for myself, I should have taken it, I should have grown up earlier instead of putting my own Self-blame and anger spilled on you and Ah Fu, I was too naive at that time.

Rachel closed her eyes and put her hand on Bruce's belly. That night, when the weak Seb carried the unconscious Bruce back to the Batcave, Rachel was almost the first to know the news, she knew Who ended the disaster in this city, not the National Guard or the ineffective police.

It was him, the man in front of her, the one she liked. He used his life to make it possible for this city to continue, but this secret is destined not to be known by too many people.

Does it still hurt?

Rachel touched the wound and asked in a low voice.

Bruce took her hand, shook his head,

It hurts more than watching you turn and leave, Rachel... I'm back, I'm no longer the naive child I used to be, I will protect you, protect this city, will you believe me?

Rachel pursed her lips, her eyes lowered, and she took a step back a little.

She looked up at him, looking at this great hero who seemed to be in a fairy tale, she saw the light of expectation in his eyes,

I believe, Bruce, but I don't like Batman... I like Bruce Wayne, the boy who used to play silly games with me in the flower garden all day, not a guy who would do justice in the middle of the night Hero, it's too hard for you to carry the city and me at the same time, so...I'll wait for you, Bruce.

Ms. Rachel, who had just been promoted to be a full-time prosecutor, stretched out her fingers and held Bruce's collar in place. The smile on her face was sincere and beautiful.

I'll be by your side when the city doesn't need Batman anymore, trust me, that's the only thing I want to do right now.

But that's probably going to be a long... very long time.

Bruce shrugged with a wry smile, The law and order in this city is too bad, I'm just getting started, and even so, I feel powerless, I originally hoped...

mua~

The second half of his sentence was blocked by a sweet kiss, which was the best gift for the hero who had just saved the whole city. They hugged each other. His heart was also slowly approaching, and Alfred, who was hiding aside, watched this scene, his eyes were full of happiness watching the younger generation grow up.

Afu has never regarded himself as an outsider of the Wayne family. Whether it is Bruce or his father, they all regard him as a real family member. In Afu's eyes, Miss Rachel, who grew up with Bruce, It is the best choice for the mistress of this generation of the Wayne family.

Long lasting, parted lips.

This is my encouragement to you, my Batman, my hero.

Rachel's breathing was a little short, but she took a step back restrainedly, then took out a box from her bag, and handed it to Bruce.

It was supposed to be given to you on your birthday, but a lot of things happened on that day.

She clapped her handbag and said with some embarrassment, Okay, I should go. Recently, there are a lot of cases to be dealt with, and the reconstruction of Narrow Island is coming soon. I will be very busy in the next few months, but... welcome back, Bruce, this city With you, people will feel comfortable.

hum

A deep roar from the woods interrupted the sweet atmosphere between the two people at this moment. They raised their heads and looked behind. A black heavy locomotive carrying a crazy knight in black came out of the woods, dressed in Saibo, wearing a black windbreaker and wearing big sunglasses, is driving a black battle axe, appearing in a very domineering manner.

When approaching the ruins, there was a light and sharp turn, and the locomotive, which was like a heavy weapon, stopped firmly on the edge of the ruins. Saibo straightened his body from the locomotive, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and put it in his mouth. He looked at Bruce and Rachel standing there arm in arm with an ambiguous smile, and he shouted,

Wow, from such a distance, I can smell the sour smell of love. Seriously, Ms. Rachel, do you really not think about me? I am much more honest than the playboys around you!

This teasing made Rachel's cheeks flush, but as a person who knew more secrets, Rachel also knew what kind of role the bohemian guy in front of her played that night. Giving Saibo a hug, actually made Saibo feel a little helpless.

This is for you, Gotham Hero, I heard they called you the 'Red Devil', which sounds awful.

Hush...

Saber took off his sunglasses, winked at Rachel and smiled,

I'm just a mercenary, I'm paid to do things, but I'm going to lose my job soon! It's really hard to find a job these days, how about it? Miss Rachel, my previous proposal is still valid. If it's you, I can exempt you. Charge bodyguard fee!

Rachel patted him on the shoulder.

Come on, Seber, I can't afford a bodyguard like you, well, I'm leaving, you and Bruce can continue talking about your big things of saving the world, I won't bother you anymore.

Oh, by the way, there are gifts for you too!

Rachel patted her head, reached out and took out a box from the briefcase, handed it to Seber, then waved to Bruce, and left the ruins under the leadership of Alfred.

Sable jumped off the locomotive, threw the cigarette butt away from the corner of his mouth, looked at the box in his hand, he opened it, and there was a brand new black mobile phone lying in it, Sable whistled, the latest version of Nokia.

I said, she's the perfect wife, isn't she?

Saibo raised his head and said to Bruce who came to his side, In our side, at your age, people usually start a family and start a business, what? Don't you think about getting married? I think Afu has been waiting for a long time.

There are more important things.

Bruce sighed and clenched the wooden box in his hand. He pursed his lips and looked at Seber who was leaning on the motorcycle, What about you? What are your plans?

This question made Saber stunned for a moment, and then he showed a smile,

Me, I plan to go out for a walk recently. I will go to Star City first, and then go to other places. It's boring to stay in Gotham all the time.

Are you looking for your purpose in life?

Bruce smiled, reached out and patted Saibo on the shoulder, Although you are very good at fighting and difficult to deal with, I can feel that you lack a goal in your heart and always do things aimlessly, Du Cade was a really bad asshole, but at least he made me find what I should and must do with my life.

Son of Gotham stares at Seb,

You should find one too, Sable, don't waste your talent, let alone your life.

He should have refuted, according to his nasty character, but in the end, Saibo just nodded silently, he put on his sunglasses again, hid all his expressions and emotions, looked up into the distance,

Uh... I will... In addition, this car will be stored with you first, let Lucius modify it and add some bulletproof designs, oh, by the way, do you have a car that is not so cool here? Riding this thing, the rate of turning heads is too high.

Saber turned his head and tilted his head to look at Bruce with a weird face.

It's better to be the kind that is convenient for hiding things. I can't just throw that set of things in the trunk... Hey! Why are you looking at me like this? I will pay for it! Bastard, just promise from Ah Fu Deduct from my reward!

A 5% stake in Gotham Pier?

Bruce rubbed his chin, reached out his hand to take out the garage key from his pocket, and threw it to Seber. He walked into the ruins again with a cane, and began to pick and choose.

That must be enough, then, Mr. Shareholder, go ahead and pick one at random. The cars inside are all modified and can meet your requirements, provided that you don't bring too many contraband.

boom

A shocking roar sounded behind Wayne, and the Son of Gotham shook his head. He stood up and looked at Seber who had disappeared into the woods. Far,

Thank you, Cyber.
