28 Chapter 28 (Arc 1)

As Wade slowly opened his eyes, he heard voices of sighs and breath on his face less than a second after regaining consciousness. Wad's eyes were sleepy, so it was a few seconds before he regained his visibility. And when he saw which face was before him, he said.

(Wade)-Smells like fish. Dick. Get off me.

Wade saw Grayson straighten from his earlier position of bending very close to Wade's face standing next to his shoulder. Grayson probably wanted to see if he was breathing. Or he's too emotional.

As Grayson stepped back, Wade was able to look around, but he still hadn't lifted his head from the backrest. For the simple reason that he could feel two nice soft things in the back of his head. And seeing the dark ends of the hair. Wade wasn't going to get up.

However, it only took a few seconds for Cyborg, standing at the computer in front of Wade, along with Blue on his own program, which automatically raised his back. To the position where Wade sat with his back slightly straightened. And the pleasant feeling, much to Wade's sadness, was gone.

Before everyone could speak, Raven and the rest of them stood in front of Wade. However, Raven had a slightly angry expression.

>Slap!!!

(Raven)-What were you thinking? Trigon could have killed you !!!

The others couldn't say a word for the whole situation. Wade rubbed his cheek before confidently looking up to meet Raven's eyes.

(Wade)-I know what I did and it works.

Raven's eyes turned demonic for a second, and her skin flushed slightly. And her expression seemed angry.

(Raven)-What you know? It's Trigon, if you try to help me, you might die, don't you understand?

(Wade)-Listen. I've been living here for almost three weeks and every night I hear you suffer. And I did what I wanted. My method is good and it works. And what do you think, why the joint with Trigon was broken.

(Raven)-I...

(Wade)-I banished him. And I even left him a souvenir.

Then Wade, improvising, quickly looked into the inventory. Fortunately, he found not one but two things there. And take them out of the inventory and put them on his lap.

First there was a large piece of metal that was skinned down to the size of a hand. Then Wade howled out something that made Raven step back two steps and put her hand to her mouth in shock.

(Raven)-IT...It...

(Wade)-Trigon's left eye.

Those in the room couldn't believe what they were seeing, including Wade. Who didn't expect to get anything besides the blade. However, not wanting to go wrong in the eyes of others, and to show that he knows what to do. Come on, he'll really only start to improve the technique aimed at helping Raven and himself at the same time. However, this is only a half-lie or a tough guy.

(Grayson)-How?

(Wade)-Honestly, my plan was relatively simple. Mana Raven is unstable and needs a catalyst. How would I explain it? ... Let's say I'm sending my mane, which is kind of like a little army of white balls of energy. Which do not stabilize Raven's purple spheres, but sort of make the purple spheres process more data, or rather emotions. Which results in an increase in violet controls. And they make Raven slap me in the face without being completely transoframmed.

(Raven)-What?

Then Wade pointed to his left hand. Which touched Raven's left leg, gently and with the back of her hand. From the moment you sense the violence of Raven's mana. That was a few seconds before Wada hit in the face.

A slight smile appeared on Grayson's face as everyone followed their gaze. And Raven didn't move an inch, but instead tried to understand what Wade was doing. Because she was too angry to notice that Wade was pouring his mana into her bodies.

(Wade)-This works best through physical contact, then my mana is not exposed to mana from the external environment. Which was also partly why Trigon burst into my mind.

(Wade)-I suspect if I had physical contact with you then. Trigon would not be able to sense me and "visit" me. Because he would not distinguish me from a "mana crystal" or the like. By guessing, he might think you are trying to put up a stronger resistance by using amplifiers like these.

During Wade's brief explanation, the emotions subsided slightly. And Raven, instead of being angry now, had more to awaken an investigator spirit or something like that. Because she tried to deduce theories of how it works and whether what Wade says is true.

(Grayson)-If I understood correctly. You worked out the method, I'm sorry to say that. "Let Raven be more alive and so she can sleep peacefully." However, this was the first attempt, and it puts the Mad Scientist on your face. You plan on modifying the spell or what it is even more. But so that Trigon won't be able to smell you out.

(Wade)-Even better.

Then Wade turned his gaze to Raven, who was literally confused. On the one hand, she was overwhelmed with hope, on the other, she was afraid that now Trigon would want to eliminate Wade. Wade understand what's happening, he said.

(Wade)-You do not need to worry. I know what I'm doing. Why did I do it? It's simple because I only need a moment with you, a simple conversation, to be the happiest man in the world. And that's why I will explore this branch of magic and help you. Even just so you can slam the door on me again.

Wade said as he got up from his seat and headed for Cyborg. Leaving Raven speechless and Grayson who, slightly shocked but smiling, followed him.

Wade handed a shard of Trigon's sword to Cyborg and said with a slight smile.

(Wade)-Examine it from all angles. It is a sword piece that has literally cut through the core of the planet, Which they inhabit certain humanoid races that look like Mass effect Asari.

Wade's face as she was saying the sentence. She looked like she was close to tears or blind fury. Which made Cybrog and Grayson freeze in place, and Raven couldn't be more concerned.

Wade didn't want to show them this. From waking up, he wanted to ... tried to show it was nothing. That he is strong and has everything under his control. However, the sight of destruction and carnage is too much. And Wade staggered slightly to the elevator, before the elevator doors closed. People in the medical scare saw Wade pulling his two scythes out of the ewkipunk. And she squeezes both while holding it close to her face. And looking at the green blood on the blade that has started to be burned by the black flames.

Then the door closed and Wade slowly made his way to the bathroom down the hall. And he took a long shower where he tried to control the images in his mind.

A few seconds after the elevator door closed.

Blue Beetle, Cyborg and Grayson approached Raven who, being completely shocked, stared at the elevator door and the numbers changing on the screen. However, seeing her friends in front of her, she woke up and said in a slightly shaky voice.

(Raven)-Asari.,,

(Grayson)-What?

Rachel still had a shocked face, she said.

(Raven)-Asari. I know what his eyes can do.

Dick grabbed Raven's arm gently and understood the situation with a worried expression on his face, asked.

(Grayson)-I hope I'm thinking wrong.

(Raven)-Unfortunately. I've seen it too, but probably much less than he did. Asari is an alien species from Mass Efect. However, their appearance resembles the race whose planet was Trigon's last target. He ...

Raven pursed her lips, understanding what Wade could see.

(Raven)-May I be wrong. But I guess Wade saw something terrible. I need to talk with him.

Raven wanted to go right away, but was stopped by Cyborg's hand and what he said.

(Cyborg)-If you're right. Wade needs a moment of solitude. I know after what he said, after what he did. You want to talk to him. You know me, I want to too. But now Wade has to digest it himself. And if you really have to, give him at least an hour.

Raven felt herself losing control again, so she took a breath. And she just nodded and she and Blue went to the second elevator and drove to the main lounge. And Cyborg and Grayson remained to examine the shard of Trigon's sword and talk.

Fifteen minutes later, Wade's room.

As Wade stepped into the shower, all the facade he wanted to show in front of his friends. Cracked and when he got out of the shower and put on his boxer shorts. Wade sat up in bed and cried. He's literally crying, it's not a movie or an anime. But a sight so macabre influenced Wade. And the emotions were too strong for anyone to control. And now that he was alone, he didn't have to hide his emotions behind false confidence.

And for several minutes he cried and tried to control himself. Wade was conducting an internal monologue. About the fact that he had no influence on it and that he should at least avenge these aliens or just people. As the minutes passed, Wade grew more composed and decided to do what always helps him.

He had no head for browsing the system, so he concentrated on magic training. And knowing that black fire magic is effective against the Demon. Wade decided to train in building mental protection since he learned to get into his mind.

,,Finally I understood what pain meant. Pain doesn't mean being spanked until you pass out. Nor does it mean to cut my foot with a glass shard so that the doctor has to sew it up. The pain only starts when our whole heart hurts and we think we are about to die, and we can't tell anyone our secret. The pain makes us unable to move either our arm or leg, or even turn our head onto the pillow."-José Mauro de Vasconcelos, My Orange Tree

,,Many of the living deserve to die. And many who die deserve to live. Can you give it to them? So do not be so hasty in passing death sentences, because even the wisest does not know everything."-J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

,,Sometimes, through pain, you can learn a lot. Pain can be a teacher, a motivator. However, too much of it can turn a person into a monster."-Kriuswer
