Chapter 46

Meeting the seemingly all-engulfing storm of divine lightning being sent my way with a quick Bala I realized that a clash of power between me and Black Adam would only result in the people around me dying so with a curse I hardened my Heirro as much as I could as I used a Sonido to tear through the lightning that was sent my way in such amounts that it would have made Palpatine jealous.

Then as my slightly burnt form pushed through the lightning, I laid a great kick upside Black Adam's neck sending him skidding across the floor while I ran towards him.

"Teth Adam I banish you to the Shadow Realm!" I yelled making his eyes widen as a gaping Garganta formed behind himself in that moment, as he stared out into the void of darkness that was my Garganta, Kid Flash took the moment of surprise to drop kick the man at over the speed of sound sending the man staggering but that moment where he staggered was enough for me to Sonido in and use my essence wind to thrown his unstable form easily into the Garganta.

"Good luck Black Adam," I said as our eyes met for a moment.

"No! I won't be sealed!" The man roared but, in the moment, he hit the 'ground' of the Garganta, I was already closing it and by the time he closed in and attempted to punch me who was standing smiling at the entrance of the closing dimensional portal to Hell, the final little square folds that made up the sides of the Hollow technique closed up sealing the man into the Garganta.

Maybe he will get lucky and actually be smart and move down the tunnel and reach Hell, or he will be lost between dimensions, and I won't ever see the man again... Nah the plot of the world demands its villains and I doubt it would be that easy unless I directly take off his head.

For a moment I stared at the spot of the dismissal of Black Adam before I heard a series of clapping coming from behind me I looked to see what was going on and whether they were celebrating me and Kid Flash getting rid of a pretty strong villain without causing much damage I could only fucking deadpan at the sight.

"Oh, you have got to be kidding me!" Kid Flash cursed mirroring my thoughts as all the politicians were schmoozing up to Luthor as apparently a League of Assassins ninja was a server and didn't come in on the helicopter and while I and Kid Flash dealt with Black Adam the assassin attempted to kill one of the VIP's only to be saved my Luthor's secretary, Mercy who unveiled her prosthetic laser arm and took down the ninja while Galatea was busy.

"Hmm... Just shows their appreciation when Luthor seemingly gets all the praise after his little weapon of a secretary deals with a single one when we deal with dozens and a magic-casting Kryptonian." I said dryly as Galatea flew over to me and all but glomped onto me as I made my Hollow features recede so I could interact with my earpiece.

"Team, we have broken the League of Assassins attack and I have banished Black Adam from the world, so he won't be an issue for a while. Get back here as the Peace Summit is going to end and it's well apparent, we aren't even welcome here." I said frowning as not even a single one of the worldwide media outlet's reporters rushed over to interview us after fighting off the assassins and Black Adam.

Honestly, it was very fucking weird...

But seemingly noticing my peculiar gaze upon the situation, Luthor coughed loudly to get the reporters to give him some space. "Yes, my Mercy who is most definitely one of my greatest assets was indeed instrumental in protecting the peace today, but on the other hand we must all raise our hands in thanks to the tireless and seemingly thankless work that the Justice League puts into protecting us," Luthor said praising me and the other two heroes but in the moment, I met the bald man's cunning eyes I could see his laughter bubbling within him at how we were left to the side.

And as the other members of my team reached the embassy building and were welcomed by the lukewarm clapping of the reporters and some politicians I was nodded and took an offered microphone and hesitated as I considered flipping the entire damned board of the future in unveiling the Light publicly.

But that thought passed by quickly as I realized that I needed to find the mastermind of the Light Vandal Savage and throw his immortal ass into the sun before I tipped my hand and sent all the rats scurrying back into their dens.

"On this day that the nations of Rhelasia have come together, the Justice League's heroes have made witness to this wonderful event. But I have to ask." I said looking not at the cameras or even my team members. I maintained eye contact with Luthor as I made my speech.

"Will the people of Rhelasia watch idly by as terrorists invade their land and attack their world leaders with impunity only to be broken out of whatever prison they may be put into?" I asked as I began spinning my rhetoric and hearing my words both the new civil and military side of the United Rhelasia government shared eye contact and nodded.

"Do not fret Lorde, the terrorists as you called them, the assassins will be dealt with under United Rhelasia law." The civil leader spoke, and I saw that the military leader had already gotten some of his soldiers to begin overly cuffing and binding the ninja and I hoped they were all going to be just executed.

"Very well... My team will be withdrawing than in any case." I said giving a nod to the Rhelasia leaders and without giving another glance to Luthor who had this whole event in the palm of his hands I led the team outside the peace summit.

"Lorde, why did you pull us out? The League hasn't given the all clear yet." Robin all but hissed but I merely snorted as I looked to Megan.

"Please call the Bioship.' I ordered gently before looking back to Robin. "Robin, the whole entire fucking event was a scam... I could feel Luthor's soul wavelengths and he had no surprise for the whole attack, He knew down to the very minute when they were going to attack and who was going to attack... This whole peace summit was just so Luthor and Ra's al Ghu could do... Something I don't know, but the whole damned thing was staged."

Honestly, I wasn't exactly lying as Luthor already had enough control of the nations of Rhelasia nations before they unified by playing them off against one another with his weaponry and controlling their very supply of electricity.

"Now we can continue this conversation in the Bioship. Never know, if there are some hidden cameras." I muttered looking around for such a thing but seeing nothing.

Even as Robin muttered about there being no such cameras to his sensors, we all got onto the Bioship and began heading back home to the US.
