Chapter 1366 Exit

On the top floor of the Teen Titans Building, in front of the floor-to-ceiling viewing window, Damian, wearing a black dress, raised his head and looked at the starry sky. His eyes followed a slowly moving star in the sky that was not very bright and almost difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

That star is the Watchtower Space Station floating in orbit in outer space. Damian, whose senses have been strengthened by his Qi, can use super vision like an eagle's eye to reach that space station from the surface of the earth.

Dick Grayson, who had changed back into the Nightwing suit, came to the window, stood next to Damian, and said to him as if he had made great determination: "After this joint mission, I will leave the Teen Titans again and recover." Nightwing's code name. I think I'm more suitable to be a lone ranger... The Teen Titans are temporarily led by Starfire, and I ask you to help her. One day in the future, you will be needed to take over the captain's responsibilities..."

Unexpectedly, Damian turned his back to him and interrupted: "After this joint mission, I will also leave the Teen Titans."

Dick was stunned and said: "You obviously get along well with everyone and have gradually integrated into the team. I thought you were very interested in serving as the captain of the Teen Titans, and you have the ability to lead everyone to victory. Why did you leave?"

"My false identity has been exposed." Damian said in a helpless tone: "According to the news from Alfred, Bruce began to personally investigate my true identity. With his investigative abilities, he will soon be able to find out the truth. "

"What's wrong with that? Now that I've been exposed, I can reveal my identity directly in front of him and officially become the new generation of Robin."

Dick Grayson said with some annoyance: "You have proven your ability in front of him and gained his recognition. He is even willing to lead a group of superheroes from the Justice League to support your plan. If he knows that you are his My own son, you will be very surprised, right?"

"Huh?" Damian turned around, looked at Dick doubtfully, and asked: "It sounds like you are a little jealous? Don't worry, I don't intend to inherit the identity of Batman. I won't wait until one day when Bruce is gone." Be careful if you die or disappear, I will support you to put on the Bat suit and become a new generation of Batman."

Instead of being calmed down, Dick's mood became even more agitated. He said angrily: "Do you think I like being Batman's shadow? That shadow has shrouded me for too long. I have long wanted to get rid of him completely and find myself. He was born! Since you are his biological son and more capable than me in every aspect, why don’t you take on the responsibilities that your blood is destined to bear?”

"I heard Alfred mention that Bruce once said that you are the man he most values ​​​​and the most likely to inherit his mantle. You are more like his son than his biological son."

Damian did not answer his question, but suddenly changed the subject: "But I also heard Ah Fu mention that when you were as old as me, Bruce made you suffer a lot in order to train you. He beat you on the ground, forced you to eat dead rats to overcome your fear, and even kicked you out of the manor and sent you back to the orphanage after you made a mistake."

When Damian dug up his dark childhood memories, Dick couldn't help but blush. He turned his head and said angrily, "That's all in the past. Bruce was still young at that time, and I wasn't as talented as you. He was worried that I would die if I went out to fight criminals without adequate training."

"You are obviously not his biological son, but under his influence and harsh training, you have become more and more like him."

Damian continued talking to himself: "Although you are tired of being his follower and shadow, I believe that once something happens to Bruce, you will be the first to stand up and put on the bat suit to become his replacement. His assimilation ability, influence and charisma are too strong. Once you stay with him for a long time, no one can resist this kind of spiritual erosion that is almost like a memetic infection."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Dick said: "I and some other young people who are willing to follow Batman respect him because he is doing the right thing, not because he has been brainwashed!"

Damian shrugged: "But I don't think he is right. The biggest difference between him and me is that I firmly believe that I have the right to deprive others of their lives. As long as the reasons are justified and the methods are appropriate, whoever I want to die will be killed." He must die! And he, even if he watched a madman murder a dozen children in front of him, still wanted to save the madman's life and hand that guy over to justice."

Dick thought of the Puppet Master. He and Batman had uncovered the Puppet Master's secret base, where he witnessed the Puppet Master crazily killing and torturing young children and transforming a group of seven or eight-year-old children into cyborgs. Even so, Batman He still did not kill the Puppet Master on the spot to redress the injustice of the children, and even stopped him when the Talons affiliated with the Court of Owls punished the Puppet Master.

Regarding this point, Dick also felt that Batman's no-kill principle seemed a bit too conservative, but Damian's words surprised him even more. He never expected that Batman's biological son would turn out to be a madman who firmly believed that he could dominate the lives of others. There are huge differences in their ideas.

Damian said seriously: "Bruce is a very patient and persevering person. He can train a person like you, who has no blood relationship, into someone who is most like him. Once he finds out that I am his biological son, , will definitely spare no effort to change my mind and mold me into a person like him."

Dick pondered: "You mean, are you worried that Batman will find out your true identity, that you will be caught by him for personal education, and that you will have to accept the 'no-kill principle' he imposed on you?"

Damian shook his head and said calmly: "No, I'm worried that he is too annoying and I will kill him if I can't hold it back. He has a no-kill principle, but I don't. If pressed, I will really kill him. He, he can only bear not to be cruel to me, but if I fight him, he has no chance of winning!"

Dick was speechless for a moment, silently feeling sad that Bruce could have such a rebellious son.

"Batman is too stubborn. He is not as smooth as me and knows how to compromise. I will definitely not be able to convince him to stay out of my business. For the sake of his life, I can only retreat for the time being and give way to this ignorant father."

Damian spread his hands and said: "Therefore, I have no choice but to give in, leave the Teen Titans and hide in a low profile, so that he can continue to find me. How about it, Brother Dick, little brother, am I very filial and considerate?"

Dick smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't ask me, your Wayne family is indeed a top-class upper-class family, and they are really a loving father and a filial son. A bumpkin like me who comes from an acrobatic family really doesn't understand."
