To be fair, Saber doesn't have much resentment towards Ancient One because they are in different positions.
Saber loves freedom and Ancient One loves order.
It's normal for her to want to maintain the order she has laid down because she thinks from the perspective of a leader, and leaders generally hate uncertainty. They like to have everything in their hands.
Considering the responsibility of Ancient One, her toughness towards Seiber is understandable, but it's still the same sentence, as the object of restraint, Seiber doesn't like this kind of treatment, and no one likes to be locked in a cage.
Strange left in a hurry, but after he left, Saber kept sitting next to the chair by the pool. The stone engraved with complicated red runes was placed on the table, in the center of the table. Saber didn't move it, he didn't even pay attention to it. He closed his eyes slightly and leaned back in the chair until dusk, when he stood up and walked into the room, just in time to see May coming out of the bathroom.
The two of them looked at each other awkwardly, and the iceberg beauty raised her fist and smashed it towards Saber, but it didn't hurt or itch. With his current physical strength, May was no longer a big threat, so he let the fist hit his body.
"Bang Bang Bang"
May punched him more than a dozen times in a row and was finally held in Saber's arms. His chin rested on the hair of the struggling agent and he whispered.
"The paranormal incidents in Texas were all done by a guy called Johnny Blaze. However, I suggest that you don't look for trouble with him because he has a bad temper … Furthermore, he is currently doing something very troublesome. However, I can guarantee that the evil spirits that he killed were all evil spirits that deserved it."
"That's what you want to tell me?"
May's fingers pinched Saber's back fiercely, "That's all you want to tell me?"
"Hey, girl …"
Saber let go of May and looked into her eyes very seriously, "Don't get emotional … Don't forget your identity, unless you want to leave that damn organization, I personally welcome you to do so."
Hearing this, May calmed down almost immediately. She took a step back, crossed her arms, and looked at Saber with a mocking face.
"So you're going to continue being so ambiguous? You're really a scumbag! "
“emmm”
Saber rubbed his chin and shrugged. "I think it's good for both of us. Besides, you seem to be enjoying it …"
"Shut up!"
"Pa!"
The frosty Plum left with the agents who were beaten black and blue. There was a slap mark on Seber's face. Of course, this was only to appease Plum. After her car left, Seber's face returned to normal. He held a cigar in his mouth and turned to Two-Face, who had a strange expression on his face, and said, "I'm sorry.
"Harvey, I'm going back to Gotham. Do you want to come?"
We know that when faced with a choice, a certain person will always be … Ding!
"Another reverse … Forget it, fate clearly doesn't want me to return to that place at this time."
Harvey yawned and turned to walk into the room. "The plane has been arranged. You can bring the others back. I'll return to Mexico in a few days. You're right, there are too many 'rats' in New York. It's very uncomfortable to stay there."
Saber returned to Saber's mansion three hours later. Catherine and Emma had not returned yet, so there was no one else in the mansion except for Catherine's' pet '. The curtains were drawn, so the light from outside the window could not shine into the room. It looked like it was night.
The flatfish in the aquarium was still looking at Saber with hatred. Saber did not know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the mermaid seemed to have put on weight during this period of time. Moreover, there was a touch of despair in her eyes.
It seemed that Catherine's plan to train the pet was going well.
"I say, why did you come back so late?"
A deep shadow appeared from the darkness behind Saber. It was a playful voice. Saber turned to look at him. Joker was still dressed badly and had a crazy temperament. After becoming Gotham's' King of Hell ', he did not change as much as Saber imagined.
Saber took a bottle of wine from the refrigerator, twisted it open, and lay lazily on the sofa. He looked at Joker and asked in a low voice.
"What do you mean by that?"
The clown sat across from Seiber and played with a poker card in his hand. He had a sneaky look on his face.
"Do you know that it's a mess outside now … By the way, I'm not talking about Gotham, I'm talking about the real 'outside'. The news of Ancient One's serious injury made everyone excited. It turned out that it was just Dormammu. Now, as long as the guy can still move, he has joined the Dark Evil God's army … This disgusting world is in trouble."
"Gulp Gulp"
Saber took a sip of wine and looked at Joker calmly. "What does this have to do with me?"
"En?"
The clown's eyes were filled with doubt. This didn't seem like an answer that Seiber should have given. "Once Domumu's Dark Coalition Army breaks through our defenses, everything will be destroyed. Everything that you care about and everything that you protect will be destroyed. Isn't this the reason why you've always been fighting against me? What's wrong with you? Are you sick? Man … this is not like you! "
Saber closed his eyes and spread his hands on the sofa.
"En … I'm tired. I now know that I'm just an insignificant nobody. I can only hide at home and shiver or be kept in captivity and occasionally let out to bully ordinary people. Does this surprise you? Joker, I'm just a slightly stronger ordinary person. Don't I even have the right to be tired? "
"So … this is really an answer that surprised me."
Joker tilted his head and looked at Saber, who was exuding a lazy aura from the inside out. "You're not like this in my memory. Are you … en, no guts? Shouldn't you be howling and pouncing on them and fighting with them? Shouldn't you be tearing open their ugly faces with your teeth and claws? "
"Come on, I'm dying, Joker. No one can ask a dying person to be stronger."
Saber waved the bottle in his hand. "I also quarreled with Ancient One and gave up almost my last hope … But speaking of which, do you have any magic power in your body?"
Joker's eyes changed a little, and he shook his head a little uneasily.
"No, I'm a ghost. We don't use magic … Only demons, demons, magical beasts, and other magic-type existences have magic … But seriously, seriously, don't you think that the current you has let down your power and is not worthy of the suffering you've suffered?"
"I don't know when you became a counselor or something."
Saber seemed to be more silent in the darkness. "What you're saying is not something a villain should say."
"No!"
Joker's figure was getting thinner and thinner in the darkness. "I was looking forward to seeing you like this because you wouldn't cause me trouble and wouldn't interfere with my beautiful game with Little Bat, but to be honest, when I really see you like this, I suddenly feel bored."
"It turns out that Saber Hawke will bow in the face of reality. Saber Hawke will also retreat. Your body hasn't decayed yet, but your soul has festered … The stench you emit makes a cold-blooded person like me feel disgusted. You shouldn't be like this …"
In the darkness, Joker spread his hands.
"You should bloom in the midst of slaughter, like a flower at dawn."
"You should live like a knife, just like you did before. Cut away all dissatisfaction, all anger, all despair, and all hatred cleanly. Every day in your life should be like a battle. If someone tells you that the world is supposed to operate in an order defined by others, what you have to do is to live step by step. You can't go beyond all this, or you will be punished … Ancient One told you that, right?"
"Do you know what I think you should do?"
Joker had a sarcastic smile on his face. "You should jump up, slap her hard, and tell her that this is all bullshit! You should live the life you want and be the person you want to be … You know? Ancient One is a self-righteous fool! She thinks she can control everything? She can't control anything! "
"The world shouldn't live in such a state. Fighting, plundering, and war should be the main theme of the world. She said she gave the world freedom, but look at this stagnant world, what kind of freedom is that? She's just keeping the world in captivity in another way! Do you know why the Age of Chaos has come so quietly? "
"Let me tell you … This is the choice of the world … It's the same as you, it doesn't want to be so restrained."
He put his hands together and then separated them again.
"So, tell me, Saber, you are a coward who is scared, you are a pitiful person who hesitates in the face of choice, you are a dying patient who can't even pick up a knife, all your power will come to an abrupt end after compromise. Tell me, this is your own choice, to stay away from the battlefield and die in a hospital bed. Tell me, you chose all this for the people you protect … Tell me, your blood is cold, you have changed from Saber Hawk to a dispensable little sheep, you have become what everyone wants you to be, and they call this growth … Tell me, bastard!"
"Bang!"
The wine bottle fell to the ground, and the fragrant wine and broken glass scattered everywhere. In the darkness, the pair of dark red eyes opened, like a sleeping beast that had just woken up.
"No … of course I'm not!"
"And … Who are you! You … are not a Joker! "
"Haha!"
The figure completely disappeared, and Saber's eyes could not see any trace of his existence, only the voice that remained in his ears.
"You've been taught to remember the lessons of war, but you've always neglected the heroes praised in war, because heroes can fail, they can be stabbed, they can be killed, and finally be forgotten. But for tens of thousands of years, war has always changed the world."
"I have witnessed it countless times, that is the power of war. I have seen people kill in the name of it, or sacrifice their lives to defend it, but you have to remember … you can't kiss war, you can't touch it or hold it, the concept of war itself does not bleed, it does not feel pain, it has no love, it has no hate."
"Who am I?"
"I am the source of the most battle-thirsty will in your body, I am the essence that exists in every life's bestial nature, I am the horn that starts the massacre, I am the dust that stains the battlefield, I am … war itself! Go, Saber Hawk, if you are in a bad mood, chop down two bastards to vent your anger. You and I both know what you want to do, and we both know what you should do … "
"If you really want to bid farewell to this world, please leave with your last bit of dignity …"
"Bang!"
The marble table in front of Saber was smashed into pieces by a punch. He angrily looked at the empty darkness, as if that fellow had never appeared. However, his instincts told him that someone had been here, and this was not an illusion. He took large strides to the Flatfish that was tamed in the aquarium. He suppressed his emotions and asked with a hoarse voice.
"What did you see?"
Looking at those burning eyes, the Flatfish shrunk her body in fear and said hesitantly,
"I saw … you were … talking to yourself … as if … as if you had gone mad!"
"Haha!"
Saber's expression froze for a few seconds. His fingers slid on the thick glass and finally clenched into a fist.
"You are not resigned to this, right?"
The Flatfish's body trembled as she looked at Saber. The latter closed his eyes, and his body was also trembling. He seemed to be suppressing the volcano that was about to erupt in his body.
"Let me ask you, you are not resigned to being kept in captivity like this, right? You desire freedom, you desire to live freely under the sun one day, right? "
The Flatfish did not answer, but the radiance in her eyes proved everything. Saber took a deep breath.
"Bang!"
The glass of the aquarium shattered, and the thick water instantly drowned Saber. The luxurious carpet was soaked by the water. He stood on the spot like a reef in the water, and his left hand grabbed the chain around the Flatfish's neck.
"Crack!"
The chain broke, and Saber's finger gently brushed across the Flatfish's face.
"At the end of the day, how can a living being with self-consciousness continue to live in such a shameful manner? Not being able to pursue everything you want, how cruel is that … You were not born as a prisoner, and you should not become anyone's prisoner. Go, bravely pursue everything you want. "
He turned around and picked up the wooden box beside the sofa.
"Bang!"
The stone in his hand was crushed, and the red powder rapidly spun in the air, quickly turning into a spreading portal. He took a deep breath and turned around with a cigar in his mouth. Amidst the lingering smoke, the figure in front of the Flatfish's eyes seemed to be expanding infinitely.
"You are free …"
"I … am also free!"
He spread out his arms and faced the portal that was rapidly expanding to its largest size, chanting softly like a poet.
"I have seen things that you would not believe. The end of life burned on the shoulder of despair. I have seen the endless light shining in the darkness of the Gate of Heaven. All those moments, if I had not seen them, they would have disappeared in time. I have witnessed them, and now, let them witness me …"
"The time for war has come. Death is screaming, the sword is buzzing, and the blood is boiling. Let everything else go to hell … Welcome to the battlefield, welcome back, Saber Hawk!"
