Chapter 514 Tyrant or Hero?
When Barbara asked her questions, Raven was unwilling to say more. Unlike Clark, she was a member of the magic side herself and naturally knew what Rune had been doing recently. To put it bluntly, Rune's behavior could be described as that of a tyrant.
To force the entire magical realm to change its spellcasting system for a vague and uncertain prophecy? Even progressives think Rune is being too radical.
However, at that moment, Rune's train of thought was interrupted when he heard Barbara's question to Raven.
"It's alright, Raven. You can tell Barbara what I've been doing lately," Rune said casually, stuffing all the plates into the sink. They'll clean themselves up later.
Wizards in the Harry Potter universe all agree on one point: magic makes people lazy.
After receiving permission, Raven led Barbara directly into the workshop. Rune's actions during this period were really inappropriate to discuss in front of Clark and Jonathan.
Rune told all three that he was promoting reforms in the field of magic, and they didn't think much of it.
"Kid, is there some new development between Raven and you, which is why you're pulling that little girl away from us?" Jonathan looked at Rune disapprovingly and shook his head.
He knew Raven liked Rune, and he knew that child marriage was a serious problem in America, but Jonathan was a decent man and he wouldn't allow his child to violate ethics—even if they were childhood sweethearts and loved each other, it just wouldn't work.
Martha then sat down next to Rune, anxiously grasping the mage's hand. "Could you tell us? Of course, if you don't want to, that's fine too—"
"Martha!" Jonathan shouted, clearly disagreeing with his wife's actions. But Martha only glared at him, and the husband immediately deflated like a punctured balloon, shrinking back into his chair.
Clark also curiously came over, then looked at Rune with a gloating expression.
Who told you to tease me this morning? You deserved it!
But what couldn't Rune say? He smiled at the Jonathans and said softly, "No, we're both very restrained. Before we're adults, before Raven explicitly confesses his feelings to me, we won't engage in any intimate acts that go beyond hugging."
Even though Rune is currently in his adolescence, a time when he is full of vigor and vitality, don't forget that his main business is still puppets, and the companion puppets can solve this awkward problem.
Rune's answer clearly relieved Jonathan and Martha.
"Hey, that's not fair!" Clark yelled. "Why don't you believe what I say, but you immediately believe what Rune says?"
"Perhaps it's because you said you didn't smoke last time, but I could smell smoke on your breath?" Jonathan raised an eyebrow, finally perking up again, looking at Clark with the majesty of a lion.
"That was just a friend of mine—oh, please, I haven't smoked since, okay?" Clark muttered under his breath. He seemed to be trying to prove his innocence by exhaling.
Martha immediately chimed in, "And another thing, the time before last you secretly drove the family car out for a spin, got a ticket from the traffic cop, and tried to hide it from the whole family—"
Clark gasped. Considering that he did indeed possess the ability to breathe ice, Rune felt that his contribution to the greenhouse effect might be greater than that of a hundred people.
At this moment, the Jonathans' attention shifted from Rune's emotional problems to Clark's conduct.
Say thank you, Superman.
Meanwhile, Barbara also learned about Rune's actions during this time. Her eyes widened, and she began to doubt whether her employer was a good person or a bad person.
He's clearly someone who's willing to help Batman, so why is he able to kill so many sorcerers without any burden? Just for that vague prophecy spoken by Rune himself?
However, Rune himself does possess the ability to travel through the multiverse, and perhaps he did discover some clues from certain places.
"Perhaps Rune's methods were a bit too brutal, don't you think, Raven?" Barbara said, then realized something and bit her tongue.
Barbara almost blurted out Rachel's name. How strange, why can't the same beings in the multiverse have the same name?
Raven, however, said nonchalantly, "I think Rune did the right thing."
In Raven's eyes, everything Rune did was right, which left Barbara speechless. She had actually seen similar people before. Normally, he would fight for his own desires, but when the world faced a crisis, he would also help the heroes without expecting anything in return.
Yes, that's exactly what Barbara was saying. Dick always complained to himself about that terrible man. In his words, Deathstroke seemed to be all-knowing and all-powerful, but no matter how desperate the situation, Dick always managed to lead his team to escape from that one-eyed man.
If Rune heard this, he would most likely roll his eyes.
It's just that no one can afford the price; Batman's sidekick and Bruce's adopted son!
To ease the awkwardness, Barbara changed the topic from Rune's style to his charm, which immediately opened Raven's floodgates.
Barbara looked on in surprise as this girl, who was usually so taciturn and quiet that one might even mistake her for a mute, began to ramble on about Rune's virtues.
She felt this state was somewhat familiar. Barbara was quite certain that she seemed to have experienced something similar for a period of time, probably during her time with Dick. Yes!
Youth, hormones, and—love.
"You like him, don't you?" Barbara interrupted Raven, her eyes narrowing slightly as if she saw through everything. A mocking smile appeared on her lips, which completely panicked Raven.
"I—no—I mean, I didn't—"
Her little face was flushed, and she looked absolutely adorable, just like a kitten. Barbara really wanted to hold this little raven close to her arms; she was just too cute!
Barbara already had a boyfriend, and his name wasn't Rune, so she quickly became friends with Raven and, of course, learned more about Rune from her.
What a contradictory person, isn't he?
He is willing to save heroes across an entire dimension, willing to liberate humanity from the oppression of robots free of charge or almost free of charge, but in his own dimension, he can kill countless mages without batting an eye.
Finally, Barbara decided to speak with Rune himself.
