Chapter 110: Talk about the Day After

13.

"I heard someone seemed to be crying—"

"Still crying loudly while hugging Bruce."

Jason folded his arms and snorted softly, his gaze lingering on the little Messiah, whose face was flushing. "Messiah, do you know who it is?"

On the first day that little Messiah ran away from home, Jason was angry and blamed himself, thinking that it was his running away that led Messiah astray.

The day after little Messiah ran away from home, Jason was nothing but worried, afraid that something might happen to Messiah while he was out there alone.

Seven days after little Messiah ran away from home, Jason was still worried even after confirming Messiah's safety through Mrs. Xanadu. After all, Messiah was just a child and had never been away from home for so long, and he was forced to shoulder such a heavy responsibility alone.

On the twentieth day after little Messiah ran away from home, Jason was furious and mad, to the point of taking his anger out on the criminal.

Thirty days after little Messiah ran away from home, Jason had reached the next level and turned into a demon that had been locked in a bottle for too long. He angrily decided that when Messiah came home he would give him a good spanking to make him learn his lesson.

Jason returned to Wayne Manor filled with anger and worry, but his anger ruined his plans the moment he saw the little Messiah.

The little Messiah looked at Jason who was laughing wildly with tears in his eyes, and he wished he could bury his head in the ground.

"Jay, don't be like this, Xiao Mi just came back." Dick complained, "Look, Xiao Mi..."

Before the little Messiah could be happy about Dick's righteous words, he saw Dick glance at him and then burst into laughter.

The two naughty brothers, one was laughing loudly, the other was laughing wildly, and the little Messiah was extremely ashamed and angry.

Is it that funny?

The little Messiah thought bitterly, it can’t be that funny.

"Stop laughing! If you laugh again I'll get angry!"

The little Messiah with two red and swollen peach eyes said so.

Then there was even louder laughter.

Dick and Jason supported each other and laughed together. The little Messiah collapsed and screamed, "Ahhh, why are you doing this? I'm the savior! The savior!"

Amid the laughter of the bad brothers, Little Messiah covered his peach eyes and ran away mumbling something like "I'm going to do my homework", "Afu asked me for help", "Damian needs me to feed him".

As soon as the little Messiah left, the laughter in the living room stopped abruptly, and Dick and Jason's faces turned cold.

Dick glanced up at the closed bedroom door of the little Messiah, and Jason let out a sharp "tsk," before they all frowned and walked towards the Batcave.

No parent can remain indifferent after their child is forced to run away from home for 30 days to save the world and comes back crying in grievance.

Those seemingly nonchalant attitudes are just their acting.

14.

The little Messiah swore that he would never like Bruce, Dick, Jason, Damian and the others again. From now on, he would only talk to Tim Alfred and let the bad guys taste his face.

Hehehe.

15.

"Really, Dad?" The little Messiah looked at Bruce dazedly. "Can I really go to the watchtower?"

Bruce hummed and nodded lazily, "Of course, baby."

"Clark and Diana both want to meet you, and Zatanna wants to see your new magic, our little savior."

The little Messiah's eyes were full of sparkling stars. He shouted "Long live Dad!" and threw himself into Bruce's arms.

“I love Dad the most!”

Damian showed a look of disdain, for the little Messiah's weak will.

Dick and Jason also showed disdainful expressions at Bruce's cunning and sweet talk.

Tim shrugged his shoulders. As one of the only two people in the family who had not been blacklisted, he had nothing to say to these guys who had once had to queue behind Ace.

Alfu showed a relieved smile, and Ace walked past Dick and Jason with his head held high, as if he also knew the brothers' current family status.

16.

"I don't want to like Tim anymore!"

Little Messiah broke down and yelled, "How could you do this!!"

Tim hurriedly closed the folder on his computer and quickly collected the photos scattered on the floor.

"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding." Tim argued, "Dick and Jason asked for it, I just kept an extra copy."

The little Messiah said sharply, "You are quibbling."

Thinking of what he had just seen, the little Messiah felt like crying.

He thought that after that day, as time passed, everyone would forget the embarrassing sight of him crying loudly, but he didn't expect Tim to take a video of it.

If Jason hadn't asked him to ask Tim for some information, he wouldn't have discovered this!

You know, when he walked in, Tim was watching the video.

Tim had no way to defend himself, but this time he was really wronged.

He admitted that he had secretly recorded or filmed the little Messiah when he made a fool of himself before, intending to share it as a dark history when the little Messiah grew up. But this time, the little Messiah cried so aggrievedly, how could he possibly have the leisure to appreciate it?

This recording was made only to analyze the information revealed by the little Messiah.

The little Messiah showed a look of distrust. This was not the first time for Tim to do this. However, before, Tim always appreciated Bruce and the others' dark history with him. This time, it was Tim who appreciated his own dark history.

Tim looked at the little Messiah who said in a soft voice, "I will never like Tim again. You are as annoying as Dick and Jason," and then left angrily. He took a big grudge against Jason in his heart.

Sooner or later he will take revenge.

Tim crushed the bug he found in the room and thought expressionlessly.

Jason and Dick looked at each other and both showed evil smiles that showed their plan was working.

If you want to be hated, you have to be hated by your brothers together. Tim cannot be immune to it.

This is the brotherhood of the Wayne family, it is really touching.

Damian, who was passing by, looked at him as if he was a fool again.

17.

During the days he was at home, little Messiah was either being teased by his bad brothers, or competing with Damian in a battle of wits and courage, or being soft and acting coquettishly with Bruce and Alfred, or being pestered by Ace to play with him.

These things occupied all of the little Messiah's attention, causing him to temporarily forget the memories that flooded back after his brief awakening in the next world.

Jason was very satisfied with the effect, but sometimes he would look doubtful about his life.

Was he so naive when he was seven?

Jason looked at the little Messiah who couldn't dodge and could only lie down and let Ace lick his face madly, and then took advantage of Ace's unpreparedness to get malicious and lick him back while shouting "revenge". He couldn't help but doubt life even more.

Ace's dog head was shaking as the little Messiah licked it, revealing the same expression of doubt about life as Jason.

The little Messiah spat out a mouthful of dog hair, put his hands on his hips and laughed: "Hehehe, now you know how to be afraid, Ace."

Jason was speechless. He looked at Ace's dog face which also showed a speechless expression, and sighed again.

If he hadn't confirmed that the little Messiah's intelligence was even far beyond that of ordinary people, he would probably have suspected that Bruce had given birth to a little fool.

The little Messiah had no idea what Jason was thinking. When he saw Jason lying on a lounge chair in the garden and reading a book leisurely, his eyes rolled around, and he leaned close to Ace's dog ear with a wicked grin and whispered a few words.

Ace nodded heavily, determined to sacrifice himself in order to appease the little Messiah.

Little Messiah suddenly picked up Ace - because Little Messiah's legs were too short and Ace was too big, even Ace's two hind legs were dragging on the ground - and ran towards Jason.

Ace jumped heavily into Jason's arms.

"Ace, lick!" The little Messiah proudly put his hands on his hips, "If you don't beg for mercy, I won't let Ace let you go, bad guy Jason."

How can you be so childish?

Jason and Ace looked at each other and just lay down and let themselves be licked.

The little Messiah let out a wicked laugh, as if his evil plan had succeeded.

Damian who was passing by... well, not just passing by, Damian who came for Ace turned a corner as if nothing had happened, and looked at Jason and Little Messiah who were unaware of their blessings, with a look of disappointment in his eyes.

18.

Before heading to the Watchtower, the young Messiah finally reconciled with Damian.

The little Messiah raised his nonexistent tail and extended his hand to the sour-faced Damian with a grin.

Damian hummed reluctantly, but shook the little Messiah's hand neatly.

"That's great." Little Messiah cheered and released his hand. His soft body immediately pressed against Damian's, nuzzling Damian's cheek happily. "I've always wanted a little brother. It's so great that you're home."

"I like Damian the best."

Damian's body stiffened for a moment, feeling the warm touch and the look of the little Messiah trusting him wholeheartedly. After a few seconds, he gradually relaxed his tense body.

"Hmph." Damian's face was distorted by the little Messiah's rubbing, but he still looked like a cool guy with a sullen face. "It's your honor."

The little Messiah has learned to perfectly filter out Damian's insincerity.

Tim showed a toothache expression, especially when he saw Damian took advantage of the blind spot of the little Messiah's vision and gave him a smug and malicious smile.

It's a provocation.

Tim looked down at Damian, accepting his challenge.

Of course he knew why Damian hated him. It was simply because he felt that he had taken over the 'Robin' identity that should have belonged to Damian or Little Messiah, and since he also held a position in the Wayne Group, he thought he was an ambitious man who had usurped the throne.

Tim is not a good-tempered guy and has no time to tolerate Damian's willfulness, especially after being assassinated more than 20 times by Damian in just one week.

The little Messiah was completely oblivious to the undercurrents between Tim and Damian, and his face was filled with a happy smile.

"That's right, Damian." Little Messiah suddenly remembered something and ran out, grabbing Damian's hand. "There are gifts! Dad picked one for you, and I picked one for you too~"

Damian was disdainful, thinking it was just some childish playthings.

Although he thought so in his heart, in order to protect the childish and ridiculous (Damien's words) heart of the little Messiah, Damian still let the little Messiah pull him away.

Then, when Damian saw Bruce waiting in the garden for a long time, he suddenly froze.

Bruce looked at the two children running over hand in hand with gentle eyes and said softly, "Come on, Damian."

“Come and see the gifts of me and the Messiah.”

The little Messiah puffed out his little chest with pride and pulled the stunned Damian forward.

Damian's eyes were filled with puppies and black panther cubs chasing each other and biting their tails. He thought in a daze, "Is this all for me?"

"Can I really...Father?"

Damian didn't expect Bruce to allow him to keep an animal. In his opinion, Ace could stay in Wayne Manor because of his identity as Batdog.

Only useful ones can survive, and useless and weak creatures will be abandoned.

Damian was convinced of this after being forced by its mother to kill the panther cub he had secretly raised.

But now...

Damian had a dreamy expression on his face, and the little Messiah tilted his head in confusion, not understanding why Damian wouldn't pick them up.

Are you shy?

The little Messiah blinked his eyes, picked up the puppy and black panther cub that were chasing and playing on the ground, and stuffed them directly into Damian's arms.

Damian was even more dreamy.

"The puppy is a gift from Dad. He saw that you really like Ace, so he wanted to give you a surprise secretly." Little Messiah raised his little head, "But I found out about Dad's surprise, so I pestered him, no, it was Dad who took the initiative to take me along."

"Because you gave me black panther dumplings before... and they were made of real black panther fur."

Little Messiah blinked and said, "I thought you might like Black Panther, so I asked Dad to buy one."

Damian looked down at the lively puppy and black panther cub in his arms and remained silent for a long time.

The little Messiah was originally looking forward to Damian's reaction, but as time passed, he gradually became uneasy.

He, he wouldn't have made the wrong choice, right? Could it be that Damian doesn't like...

!

The little Messiah stared blankly at Damian who suddenly touched him and then pulled away as if nothing had happened, almost thinking that he was dreaming.

"Damian...?"

Little Messiah never thought that Damian would take the initiative to get close to him.

Damian pretended not to notice the little Messiah's dazed expression and nodded reservedly to Bruce: "Thank you for the gift, Father. I like it very much."

Then, before the little Messiah could react, he quickly left with the gifts.

Little Messiah stared at Damian's back blankly, and for the first time he noticed that Damian's neck was red.

"Aren't you going to chase him?" Bruce reminded the little Messiah with a smile, "Damian is just shy."

The little Messiah's eyes lit up, and he shouted Damian's name loudly, then chased after him.

Damian seemed unresponsive, but his pace slowed down unconsciously until the little Messiah successfully caught up with him, and then he returned to normal speed.

The little Messiah secretly held Damian's hand, and when he found that he was not thrown away, he showed a dreamy smile.

The two are indeed brothers. Just now, when Damian saw the surprise that Bruce and Little Messiah chose for him, he also showed the same dreamy smile.

Damian, who was all the rage, acquiesced to the little Messiah's approach, listening to the little Messiah chattering in his ear, sharing those childish things that he didn't bother to know.

Damian didn't notice, but the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

The little Messiah blinked when he saw this scene, but did not expose Damian's performance.

"Damian, let me tell you, I..."

The little Messiah's voice faded into the wind. Bruce looked at his children huddled together, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"You smiled, Bruce." Tim said softly as he emerged from the bushes.

Jason also appeared. He frowned, took off the leaves on his body, and sneered: "Like father, like son."

"Don't say that." Dick jumped down from the tree and wiped away his non-existent tears with emotion. "Look at Xiao Mi and Dami, they are so close and cute..."

Jason and Tim tacitly stayed away from Dick.

However, they anticipated Dick's actions, but were no match for Mighty Robin's immense strength.

Dick hugged Jason and Tim on the left and right. Jason was unable to break free and had to be hugged reluctantly. Tim just lay down and let Dick hug him.

Bruce looked at the children fighting in a group, and the curve of his mouth became more obvious.

"Master Bruce hasn't laughed like this in a long time." Alfred took out his handkerchief and wiped his tears exaggeratedly. "That's great, Master Bruce."

Bruce froze at first, then smiled helplessly.

"Afu, stop joking with me."

Listening to Bruce's words that sounded like both a complaint and a coquettish tone, Alfred raised his eyebrows without comment.

Ace looked at the playing birds on the left, looked at the laughing masters on the right, and wagged his tail.

"Woof?"

【Author’s words】

Ahhhh, I wrote 4600 words without realizing it. I was so engrossed in writing that I didn't pay attention to the time. When I finished writing, I looked up and realized it was already half past nine.

I slid down to my knees [burst into tears][burst into tears][burst into tears]
