I'm the villain in Gotham

Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, Erberist had been on Earth for nearly half a year.

During this period of time, he slowly accepted many new things on Earth, and also came into contact with many human beings, realizing that many people are not as selfish as he thought at first.Earth has many evil villains, but there are always more good ones.Not only the superheroes in several major organizations, but also many ordinary human beings with a strong sense of justice, they work together to make this world a better place.

Erberist followed Batman and ran with him in the streets of Gotham.

Of course, because his recognized master is Batman, he is of course the best in his eyes, and Erberist can list a lot of good things about him casually.He noticed more and more the shining points of this human being, he felt loved and fascinated by him, and gradually sank, deeper and deeper.

Then, on an ordinary night, they finished their night watch for tonight.Standing on the tall gargoyle, Batman patrolled the muddy city with sharp and cold eyes.At this moment, Oberist stared at his broad back immersed in the moonlight, and suddenly realized that he had developed a deep crush on him.

If at the beginning he signed the contract with Batman to better appreciate and protect this jewel-like beautiful soul, then now, after more than half a year of subtle changes, this relationship has changed from the original appreciation and playfulness. He loves him, respects him, and trusts him.

Eberister had never left his original plane before, and most of the creatures he saw were based on the summons from another plane, which was pitiful; but even though he had seen countless human beings and countless intelligent life, he still He will firmly believe that Batman is the best, the best, and the most exciting among them.

Yes, he was completely moved. At the beginning, Batman's bright and beautiful soul attracted him to restrain his pride a little, but now he is gradually fascinated by his personal charm.Erberist should have realized from the very beginning that when he was willing to let go of his arrogance for a human being, that was the beginning of his downfall.

Dragons are the most proud species, they despise all creatures other than themselves, never compromise, and defend freedom; but their genetic characteristics also determine that once they are conquered, they will choose to surrender without hesitation, and are willing to restrain themselves and take advantage Claws and fangs, lowered their heads tamely.

Urberist, the dragon born of darkness, finally realized that he had been attracted by the dark knight, and willingly knelt under his cloak.

From now on, he will be his spear and shield, clearing away all threats and obstacles for him; he will protect him from any harm and setbacks, because this is the meaning and persistence of his existence.

After realizing that he had come to see Batman as his true master, the rest of the decision fell into place.

In the Batcave, Erberist knelt in front of Batman on one knee, raised a pitch-black dagger with both hands, and stared straight at Batman with golden pupils, full of complete trust and support: "Master, I I offer you my weaknesses."

Batman frowned, and didn't pick it up immediately: "What is this?"

"This is the young horn that I have replaced, master," Eberist said modestly. "For us dragons, the young horn is the only sharp weapon that can kill us."

He knows Batman's terrifying suspicion and desire to control, but he is not afraid of this. After identifying his master, he will definitely offer up all his weaknesses one by one.In Erberist's eyes, as long as he is willing to spread everything about himself in front of Batman, he will definitely gain Batman's full trust.Moreover, this is what he should have done.

Batman seemed to be hesitating, or scrutinizing, and Urberist opened his hands to him, determined to prove the truth of what he said.The sharp nail scratched the palm of the hand, and a line of blood gushed out immediately, and it healed automatically in less than half a second, leaving no trace, not even a scar.

Batman frowned again.Since coming to Earth, he had never seen Erberist get injured, and of course he didn't know about his strong resilience.Upon discovering this fact, Batman immediately drew up a series of plans and plans in his mind, to test the depth and limit of this healing ability quietly afterwards.

Erberist hung his head, not noticing Batman's flash of meaningful expression.He pulled out the dagger, tapped it lightly on his fingertips, and blood immediately burst out: "Master, please look at this."

Beads of blood kept falling from the fingertips, and the wound showed no tendency to heal. A small pool of red liquid soon accumulated on the ground, and it was gradually expanding.

In addition, Batman also keenly noticed that the moment Erberist pulled out the dagger, his whole body seemed to be shrouded in an extremely intolerable and painful atmosphere, and he unconsciously licked his Pursing his lips, his face turned a little pale, and even his spirit seemed a little sluggish.

This uncomfortable reaction didn't stop until he put the dagger back into the sheath and held it in front of Batman again with one hand.

Batman took it, put the dagger into his universal belt, and looked at Erberister's fingertips that were still dripping blood: "When will the wound heal?"

"...I don't know, master, maybe a week." Erberist hesitated. "I've never done this before."

Batman's face darkened, he pulled him up from the ground, and turned to look for the medicine box that Alfred had left in the Batcave.Thanks to his frequent injuries, the medicine box had everything in it, and Batman quickly found out what Erberister needed, and bandaged his wound.

Erberist looked a little surprised: "Well, I can do it myself."

Batman held his palm unquestionably. Hearing this, he gave him a look of disapproval, and said flatly, "Don't do this kind of thing again next time."

Erberist's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded.

It was just a small wound, and the bandaging steps were not complicated, and it was completed quickly.It's just not pretty, and even a little ugly, which is why Alfred keeps keeping Batman from doing it himself.Oberister stared at his own gauze-wrapped fingers, distracted for a moment.

Batman was already packing the medicine box, and Erberist came back to his senses and said, "Master, there is one more thing."

Batman looked at him: "What."

"My weakness," said Erberist, "in fact, because the human body is different from the human body, the human heart and brain are not the most fatal places for me." He came to Batman and motioned him to look at his body. Eyes, because they are too close, Batman can clearly see his golden fundus and the dark golden iris on it: "Here, my eyes, are the parts that can kill me immediately."

Batman frowned indistinctly, folded his hands on his chest, and said in a deep voice, "Why did you tell me this today?"

Erberister replied seriously: "Because just today, I suddenly realized that you are the master I recognize."

Creatures such as dragons will not change once their master is confirmed. They will serve him wholeheartedly until their death: "So I will tell you everything about me. I love you and trust you. I hope you will treat me with the same feelings Treat me." Erberister smiled sweetly, and looked at Batman with sparkling eyes: "I hope my behavior can dispel your doubts about me-I know that because of what you did at the beginning, you are right I still have my doubts. But now that I've told you everything, can you trust me as much as you trust your comrades?"

Batman was silent for quite some time, and finally he said, "I can try to do that."

His answer was not what Erberister wanted, and the disappointment visible to the naked eye appeared on his face: "...I think I can wait." He said slowly, and the expression of confidence and pride slowly returned to his face On: "I believe that one day, you will not reject me again."

After finishing speaking, he bowed slightly to Batman, saluted a gentleman, then turned and left the Batcave.

After he left, Batman sat in front of the Batcomputer, propped his head up and thought for a while, and entered the information that Erberist had revealed to him just now and the ideas derived from it into the information database one by one.

……

From the day Erberist handed him the dagger, Batman realized that the atmosphere between them had changed.

He began to be willing to do anything about Batman by himself, and it got worse, to the point where Batman couldn't stand it, he had to stop these behaviors directly and ordered him to return to a normal attitude.Urberister looked very unhappy, but seeing Batman's stern face, he still had to compromise for his master.

In addition, during the night watch in the past, Erberist only helped at critical moments, as long as he helped Batman complete the task smoothly without being harmed.But now, he could almost wish to help Batman do everything in front of him, do everything himself, and even deal with the villains who dare to provoke and do things that want to hurt Batman with fierce and fierce methods, which can be considered radical.

Batman taught him more than once and even taught him a lesson, and Erberist verbally agreed several times, but he didn't seem to restrain himself much in action.In the end, he simply agreed or refused—for a dragon that has just recognized its master, hurting his master is repeatedly jumping across the bottom line, not killing them directly, which is already based on Batman's creed. , Trying to restrain myself results.

In this regard, Batman has often reflected on whether he should suspend Erberist's night patrol for a period of time, at least let him know how to obey orders and grasp the propriety before continuing to work at night.

But Erberist's attitude is very obvious, he is completely, absolutely unwilling, even if Batman really wants him to do this, he will sneak out of the Batcave.After all, for a magical creature like him who knows space magic, the defense system around the Wayne Manor seems to be non-existent.If he wanted to, he could make himself travel between the two ends of the ocean in an instant.

Batman had to use his master's rights to force Erberist to stay at home.But the consequence of this is that for a week Batman always wakes up to find that something of himself is missing. It may be a tie, it may be a coat, or... it may be underwear.

Batman: "..."

He covered his brow, refusing to think about the dragon's mental age.

"...You have to make sure you will completely listen to me when you go out," Batman said coldly, "You can't do it privately, or you will stay in bed like Damian next week."

Damian: "Hey!"

Eberrist nodded: "Okay, master," he sighed, and said unhappily, "My purpose is just to ensure your safety."

Batman: "...you've done too much."

They were finally out the door.

But tonight seemed a little unusual. The cases that appeared everywhere at the same time left Batman at a loss. Even though he had urgently sent the location of Chaoying who could be dispatched in Gotham at the first time, the manpower still seemed a little insufficient.

Under such circumstances, Batman had no choice but to take a risk and send Erberister alone to carry out the mission: "Remember what you promised me before departure." He said coldly, looking at Erberister's helpless smile After a while: "Yes, of course, master, I obey your orders."

After finishing speaking, there was a space fluctuation around him, and then the whole person suddenly disappeared in front of Batman.

Erberist went straight to the coordinates given to him by Batman. It was inevitable that there would be some accidents. What Batman handed him was just the robberies that can be seen everywhere in Gotham.Erberist knocked the robber unconscious, watched the victim run away screaming, and then prepared to rush to the next location.

Suddenly, he noticed a corner of letter paper protruding from the robber's chest.

This thing should not be in the pocket of a prisoner who is about to commit a robbery. It seems to be well preserved and should have some significance.Erberister grabbed it casually, and the paper was held in his hand, and it unfolded automatically.

He glances over quickly, then raises an eyebrow, realizing he's caught a big fish.

The letter said that there will be big moves on the pier, and they need to send people to carry out a large number of criminal activities to attract Batman's attention, which coincides with the direction of Batman's analysis when he discovered many abnormal cases tonight.This robber seems to be a small boss who hires gangsters to commit crimes. He was supposed to appear at the pier tonight. It seems that he was just trying to make money temporarily, and he was going to fish in troubled waters. Caught by Erberist.

Erberist tied up the robber with a bat rope and threw it to the ground, then opened a space door casually, and came to the pier mentioned in the letter.

Sure enough, there were many gangsters gathered there, carrying some items, and when they saw him coming, they immediately pointed the machine gun at him, and the flames spewed out like a torrential rain in an instant.

Erberist stretched out his palm, and the pouring bullets immediately hovered in the air, then lost their potential energy, and fell to the ground with a jingle.Seeing this scene, the gangsters yelled and threw away the weapons in their hands, ready to dive into the water and escape.

Erberist wasn't going to give them this chance, he was going to kill them all so he could claim credit in front of Batman.Just as the gangsters were about to jump, they suddenly found that their bodies had been nailed in place, unable to move, and then suddenly waved their fists at their own people.

Oberist watched them punch left and right, leaving his own people bruised and swollen, and he screamed in pain. If he hadn't controlled him, he would have been lying on the ground long ago, unable to move, so he let it go. past them.He casually picked up a bastard, grabbed his collar, and asked: "I haven't asked yet, what is your purpose?" Erberist smiled politely: "Say it, let me listen, Um?"

The gangster spoke out all his plans and goals for tonight.

Erberist nodded in satisfaction, and was about to tell Batman what he got tonight.Suddenly, the gangster in his hand screamed, and a stream of blood gushed out of his chest, splashing out violently. Erberist couldn't help but frowned, looked down, and found that his chest was split open for some reason A bloody mouth, like someone poking out an invisible sharp knife from his body.

Erberist suddenly had a bad feeling.

Batman's furious voice sounded behind him: "You killed him?"

"No, I didn't." Erberist's premonition came true, he turned his head, and pursed his lips in displeasure: "I promised you that you wouldn't kill people. I didn't do it."

Batman looked at the wound on the bastard's chest that was clearly protruding from his body, which was definitely not something that humans could do, and said coldly and angrily, "You're lying."

"—I told you, I didn't." Because of Batman's repeated questioning, Erberist's voice was also filled with irritation: "Since I promised you, I won't break my promise."

Batman's face exposed under the mask is covered with frost, and the frown between his brows shows his distrustful attitude.Erberister threw the body aside casually, and walked towards him angrily.He may be trying to justify himself again, but in Batman's heart, such behavior has taken on aggression.

At this moment, Batman suddenly realized that his thinking was too simple. The dragon who had already recognized the master could not be controlled by the previous methods. Erberist became violent and irritable visible to the naked eye. , he didn't even realize the danger brought by this change.Batman was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "You are right, I shouldn't question you."

Erberist paused as he walked forward: "...do you trust me?"

"Yes," Batman sighed. "We are bound by a contract. I should trust your integrity. Sorry, Erberist."

Erberister froze for a moment, his angry expression slowly calmed down.He turned his head, not allowing himself to look at Batman, and said in a low voice: "...our dragons are different from humans, and we will not go back on what we promised. I hope you will not question me because of this in the future."

Batman said, "Okay."
