Little Teach Saber, 9 years old this year. He had a lively personality and didn't really like going to school or carrots. He was no different from the other Gotham kids of the same age. The only difference was that he had a father who seemed to have a powerful background and a few mothers. This strange family lived together in Saber's mansion in the old district of Gotham.
He also had two younger sisters and a younger brother who was about to be born. Little Teach was actually the eldest son of this generation of the Christian family.
Oh, right, he was also an unknown level mutant. This didn't mean that his potential was so great that even Omega couldn't describe it. The main thing was that Saber didn't want to label his son as a mutant when he was still young. Therefore, he didn't accept the ability test from Professor Charles.
Little Teach's favorite place to hang out was the pub that was run by his father. He would spend almost every night here. Here, he could hear many interesting stories from the old men who liked to chat after drinking. Here, he could meet many friends who were much older than him. When he was particularly lucky, he could meet people that ordinary children would never meet.
At this time, he was happily waving the Spear of Judgement in his hand and humming a nursery rhyme as he walked up the stairs. The pub would close very late. Before his father took him home, he had to go to his room on the fourth floor to rest.
In his hand, the Spear of Judgement that was just given to him had shrunk to a size that could be grasped by his hand. It was like a miniature baton. Every time he waved it, the surface of the weapon would flash with blue lightning. It was very beautiful.
For a 9 year old boy, there was probably no gift more pleasing than this. Just as Little Teach climbed up to the corner of the third floor, a finger reached out from the darkness and gently knocked on the boy's head, making a crisp sound.
Bang!
"Ah!"
Little Teach covered his head with his left hand like a little monkey. He vigilantly jumped back and pointed the Spear of Judgement in his right hand forward. Then, he saw Damian leaning against the railing. The 19 year old young man was wearing a casual suit. He leaned against the railing in a lazy posture and tossed a bright red apple up and down in his hand.
"Hey, aren't you going to give me a hug after seeing your handsome Damian?"
"Tch!"
Little Teach snorted and carefully hid the Spear of Judgement behind his back. He didn't forget that his naughty "brother" liked to steal his toys when he was still a child. Moreover, he had a talent for breaking things.
But after a few seconds, he still called out reluctantly.
"Brother."
Damian was Saber's first godson. As an atheist, it was strange for Saber to have several godson. But to be honest, he treated his godson very well, so much so that these children treated him like a real second father.
"Look at how stingy you are … It's not like I'm going to steal your new toy …"
Damian placed the apple in his mouth and took a bite. As the juice splattered everywhere, he winked at Little Teach and said in a low voice,
"I brought you a gift from the Da Ma Galaxy. Do you want to take a look?"
"Gift?!"
Little Ditty's eyes suddenly widened and were filled with surprise. Children loved gifts.
Five minutes later, Damian followed Little Teach into his room. The room was more like a showroom filled with all kinds of strange collectibles. Everything in here was Little Teach's "treasure".
"Ah, it's only been two years since I last came, but the things here have at least tripled. Haven't you changed your habit of picking up things everywhere?"
Damian walked to the wall filled with all kinds of things. In front of him, there was a small orange ball of light. It was placed on a silver-white metal glove. It was constantly making a buzzing sound, as if it was vibrating on the spot.
"What's this?"
Damian turned his head and asked curiously. Behind him, Little Teach was sitting on his custom-made chair and said absent-mindedly, "It was last year's gift for me.
"That was my birthday present from Mr. Fury last year. You'd better not touch it. Last time, Little Carter accidentally knocked it over, and this bad-tempered toy flew everywhere. In the end, it caused a blackout in one third of Gotham."
"Hmm."
Hearing Little Teach's advice, Damian's eyes glowed with interest. He rubbed his hands and gently touched the ball of light in front of him with his finger. In the next moment, the ball of light's balance was broken. It flew out in an instant and screamed like an irritable little devil. It flew madly in the room at a speed faster than the speed of sound and knocked down everything in its path.
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
It was like the sound of a machine gun firing. In just three seconds, the tidy room was turned into a mess by this irritable little devil.
"Oh! Oh my god! I swear I didn't do it on purpose!! "
Damian saw this scene and immediately realized that he had caused trouble. His figure quickly moved back and forth in the air, trying to catch the screaming devil ball with his hand. However, every time he touched it, his body would be sent flying by the high-speed vibration of the ball of light.
"Ahhh!!!"
Damian's screams echoed in the room along with his body, making the already bad situation even worse. Little Teach, who was sitting on the chair, looked at the room that was about to turn into a garbage dump with a blank expression. He sighed angrily. He knew that letting Damian into his house would turn out like this.
In the next moment, he quickly tilted his head. The ball of light brushed past his hair and smashed into the wall behind him. It started to collide violently again.
"Ka!"
Little Teach stretched out his finger and waved. The silver-white glove that was thrown on the ground quickly fell into his hand. He put on the glove and raised it without looking at it. In the next moment, the ball of light that was jumping rapidly in the air seemed to have felt a strong attraction force. It strangely drew a line in the air and finally landed in Little Teach's hand.
"You see, I told you not to touch it …"
Little Teach placed his' collection 'back in its original position. He turned around and put his hands on his waist like an adult. Behind him, Damian was lying on top of his collection in a sorry state. There was a bruise on his left eye.
Seeing Damian's miserable appearance, Little Teach's mood suddenly improved. He shrugged and snapped his fingers. The next moment, the Restoration Circle in the room was activated. Those messy little toys quickly returned to their original positions.
"So, little guy, you're actually taking revenge on me, aren't you?"
Damian rubbed his eyes and stood up from the ground. He scratched his head and looked at the child who was as tall as his waist. He let out a sigh of relief. His gaze became gentle. He reached out his hand and patted Little Teach's head.
"I'm sorry, little guy. I didn't make it to your birthday last year. I want to apologize to you. At that time, I was fighting a group of Interstellar Pirates. I wanted to send you an email, but my AI computer was destroyed by those bastards. Speaking of which, I should thank them …"
Damian reached his hand behind him. A weak Dimensional Reaction jumped in the air. The next moment, he opened his hand exaggeratedly and pulled out a birdcage covered in black cloth.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
"A belated birthday present from Big Brother Damian!"
However, when Little Teach raised his head, there was not much joy in his eyes. He silently opened his arms and hugged Damian.
"I'm not angry because you didn't come to my birthday party. I'm angry because you didn't tell us that you were injured. Uncle Bruce and I stayed in the hospital on Planet Da Ma for three days. We only left when you were about to wake up. Uncle Bruce didn't want to ruin your dream of becoming a star ranger, but I didn't care. At that time, I almost thought I was going to lose you …"
This sudden outpouring of emotion made Damian fall silent. He put the birdcage aside and hugged Little Teach's head with both hands. He said softly, "Little Teach.
"I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to worry. When I left, I swore that I would return to see you as a hero. I wanted to set a good example for you, right?
"Speaking of which, the mysterious disappearance of the Interstellar Pirates … You guys are behind it, right?"
Damian squatted down and reached out to wipe Little Teach's tears. He looked at the child in front of him and asked softly, "Is it my godfather? Or my dad who is so fat that he can't even lift a fist? Is this how you seek revenge for me? "
"Huff … Huff …"
Little Teach sniffled and said embarrassedly, "I asked Sim to do it … Mom grounded me for a month."
"Then you're really something …"
Damian scratched Little Teach's nose. He sat cross-legged on the ground with his hands behind his back. He looked at Little Teach.
"This time, I promise that I'll come back for every birthday party you attend. And … I'll try my best not to get hurt … So, let's look at the present!"
"Swoosh!"
The black cloth covering the golden birdcage was pulled away. The next moment, a miniature fireball flew out from the birdcage and hit Little Teach's arm. Little Teach was startled by the fireball. After the fireball disappeared, Little Teach opened his eyes wide and saw the strange creature in the birdcage that looked somewhat dispirited.
It looked like a bat, but its body was covered with grayish black scales. There was a horn on its head and a beautiful tail like a phoenix on its back. It looked very ferocious.
"This is a dragon bat, a strange creature on the planet where I fell. It is said that it has the bloodline of a giant dragon. It can spit fire and release some magic. It is intelligent, but it can be tamed. Moreover, it is still in its infancy. When it matures, just the wings it opens are similar to a small plane … When I saw it for the first time, I knew that you would definitely like it."
While Damian was rambling on, Little Titch pursed his lips in disdain.
"No! I don't want it. It's too ugly! Maybe Joel will like it … I can give this ugly thing to him on his birthday next month! "
"Yes!"
Damian widened his eyes. "Ugly? No way. I think it's quite cute … "
"That's because the Wayne family likes bats! You have the blood of bats flowing in your veins, but I already have a better pet! "
Little Teach retorted. Then with a childish smugness, he led Damian to his window. He stood on the chair and opened the window. In the dark night of Gotham, Little Teach placed his finger on his lips and blew a loud whistle. Moments later, a creature that looked like a ball of flame flapped its wings and flew towards Little Teach from the darkness.
In the time it took for Damian to blink his eyes, a golden-red creature with beautiful feathers on its head and a slender tail appeared on Little Teach's shoulder. It stood on Little Teach's shoulder like a burning flame. Now, it was looking at the unfamiliar Damian with an arrogant gaze.
"Wow!"
Damian couldn't help but exclaim.
"A young Immortal Bird … How did you get your hands on it?"
"Isn't it awesome?"
Little Teach hummed with satisfaction. He took out two pieces of flaming crystals from his pocket and fed them to the Undying Bird on his shoulder. He stroked the flame-like feathers and said softly, "It was given to me by Aunt Phoenix.
"Auntie Phoenix gave it to me. She said she was going to be away for a long time and I didn't want her to leave. So, she gave me this little fella. She told me that when this little fella grows its ninth tail feather, she will come back."
Little Teach's mood dropped again. He looked at Damian and saw a hint of regret in Damian's eyes.
"Me, you, Little Carter, Joel … We all like Aunt Phoenix. She will bring us across worlds to eat delicious food and to play in places where others can't go …"
"My father told me that I have to raise it for at least 300 years before it grows its ninth tail …"
Little Teach heaved a sigh of relief and quickly pulled himself together. He reached out his hand to Damian, his eyes full of confidence. "It's only 300 years. Let's work hard together and raise it quickly! I really miss her … I really miss Aunt Phoenix … "
Looking at Little Teach's confident eyes, Damian, who already knew some things, couldn't bear to destroy the beautiful dream that Phoenix had left for Little Teach. He held Little Teach's hand and said softly,
"What if Aunt Phoenix hasn't come back by the time the Undying Bird grows its ninth tail feather?"
"Then I'll go find her!"
Little Teach said in a low voice. At this moment, his tone was almost identical to Saber's. He looked at Damian and said firmly with a childish voice,
"I'll find her even if I have to search every star … A family should live together. I don't want any of you to leave me! I … I'll protect all of you! "
Little Teach's determination made Damian a little absent-minded. After a while, he smiled and nodded.
"Okay! If she doesn't come back, we'll go find her … We'll go together! "
