Chapter 77

A little while after making a quick friendly visit to the talent recruiter who approached Koriand'r.

Dio began his trip to his destination for the night. He took a little longer than expected, but he was still on time.

He thought the recruiter was just an idiot, but he stumbled upon a network of trafficking and blackmailing women.

Dio blew everything up and freed the women who were trapped; the police acted immediately.

Dio also obtained all the information about the network by reading the memories of four ghosts who were on the scene.

They died in really sad ways by suicide, and overdose.

The network is spread across a few cities, but its headquarters are in Gotham, so Dio sent all this information to Robin, who forwarded it to Batman.

This will be punishment enough for them. Batman has never been or will be kind to this kind of person; everyone in Gotham knows that.

It's a point that Batman made very clear to everyone through his brutality.

The line that many stopped stepping over because of pedophilia or human trafficking.

Dio predicts that several hospitals are receiving an abnormal number of disabled people today.

It's eight o'clock at night, and Dio is now facing his mirror while looking at his black suit with a white dress shirt underneath and a black bow tie.

It's the kind of outfit he's never worn before, but it definitely suits him well, just like his new hairstyle.

Dio let his snow-white hair grow a bit; he usually leaves it loose, but now he combed it back.

Over time, Dio's face becomes increasingly mature; his skin is still pale and untouched, and his eyes are as black as two black holes.

The suit goes perfectly with everything about him.

Dio normally wouldn't dress like this, but the place he's going has a certain level, and he doesn't want to look bad by going in with just a white shirt and jeans on.

So, Dio asked Dick for a suit.

Dio owes him more and more favors; he has to remember that.

Dio quickly leaves his room and goes to the elevator.

The place is quiet at this hour, but all the people in the Tower are not sleeping.

The night is practically their working hours, and even though they are tired from the rescue that ended a few hours ago, they won't skip this day to rest.

When Dio got off the elevator on the roof, she saw Raven sitting in the middle of the roof, one meter above the ground, with her legs crossed.

There are also several candles floating around her body.

The meditation is one of the ways Ravena is not influenced by her father, increasing her emotional control.

This action is not very respected by the team since they don't know the real reason for Ravena's meditation.

Dio walks quietly to the roof's edge to avoid bothering her.

"Are you going out?"

Raven asked with her eyes closed as he passed by her.

"Yes, I have to get the last item."

Dio replied.

She has helped him a lot with his research, so she knows about the last material.

"Take care..."

Raven stopped halfway through the sentence.

She had her eyes closed until now, but she opened them and saw him, and it seems he looks good in this suit.

"What left you speechless?"

Dio teases her with a smile.

"I don't know what you're talking about; just go!"

Raven shouted and closed her eyes, but her face was twisting with embarrassment.

"I've already informed Robin about this, but I have my communicator in case something goes wrong."

Dio said as he walked to the edge.

The view of the city in the horizon still awake with its bright lights never ceases to amaze him with its beauty.

The night was also cloudless, which made it a perfect night to fly.

Dio took his phone out of his pocket and opened the GPS before leaving.

It's embarrassing, but even though he can fly now, it doesn't mean he knows the entire world map.

Dio was not like Diana, who had been flying around for centuries. This time, the destination is far from where he is.

At his maximum speed, Dio will reach it in about four hours of flight while crossing the entire country, but that only excites him.

Dio was like a teenager who had just gotten his first car and was getting ready for his first long trip.

"See you later!"

Dio said goodbye to Ravena, who still refused to open her eyes, and then let himself freefall.

When he is high above the buildings, he stops ascending and looks at the scene in front of him—the beautiful full moon and a sky covered with stars.

Dio enjoyed this view for a few seconds and flew forward again while increasing speed every second.

"BOOM!"

An explosion happened around him and pushed him even further forward at a frightening speed.

Dio just broke the sound barrier; he is moving at about one thousand two hundred kilometers per hour now.

If Dio were a bit lower, he would be breaking all the glass and causing panic in the cities below as he passed in a flash.

So, after four and a half hours, Dio finally reached his destination while slowing down to see the city of San Francisco, California.

San Francisco is a city with hills at the tip of a peninsula. It's not very large, but it has its beauty.

While floating high above, Dio took out his phone and opened the GPS to find out where to go.

It took five minutes to find the establishment in a dark and dirty alley without lighting—it was nothing more than a red door on the wall.

Dio adjusted his hair and clothes, and he knocked on the door without hesitation.

"Knock!"

"Knock!"

"Knock!"

A small opening at eye level opens, and two red eyes look at me.

"What do you want?"

The person on the other side of the door asked with a dragging and unwilling voice.

"I want to enter at this moment."

Dio replied.

The eyes stared at him for a few seconds.

"What, can't I?"

Dio asked, this time putting a bit of his energy into his eyes, which made them glow black.

A small useless trick with no purpose other than to intimidate, which is actually always useful.

The small opening closes, and he hears the knob being opened.

The door opened shortly after, and when the door was open, Dio saw a white man, but not a healthy white, a sickly white, with red eyes from the inside of the door.

A zombie.

There are many categories of the undead, which are found in many cultures around the world.

Diao would say it was made with alchemy based on its features and the fact that he knows who owns the place.

"Welcome."

The zombie said this while bowing to him with difficulty.

Dio put his hands in his pockets and entered through the front door.

The inside of the place is very different from what anyone would expect from looking at the street it's located on—a big place with room for several tables and antique wooden chairs.

There was a huge wooden counter on the left wall, and various drinks were displayed on the shelf on the wall behind it.

Above the shelf with the drinks, there was a name written in red letters.

"Bewitched"

It was a beautiful bar, but its customers were not normal.

They were all werewolves, and Dio saw them drinking while dressed in suits and having hairy bodies.

There are small fairies flying around the place.

An older man with long horns and red skin was sitting further away and chatting happily with two women who had blue skin and no hair.

There was also a cyclops playing darts against a faun on the other side of the hall.

There were more than ten different kinds of magical beings in this place, and they were all drinking and talking to each other.

It was Dio's first time in a place like this, and he was a bit excited.
