Chapter 271

The Next Day

Harley sat up in bed yawning, her sleepy eyes looking around before seeing Ivy sleeping to her left.

Sleeping together was nothing unusual, so Harley didn't pay much attention, her arms stretched up as he stretched lazily.

Suddenly she noticed she was naked.

Harley glanced quickly over at Ivy before lifting her sheet and noticing that she, too, was completely naked.

Because of Harley's sudden movement, Ivy also opened her eyes at that moment and realized the situation.

"What the hell happened yesterday?" Ivy said, sighing as she also sat up.

"Um, I'm not sure, but I think we had sex," said Harley.

"That's bad," said Ivy, looking at Harley speechless.

"Uh… yeah, very bad," said Harley, nodding quickly.

"Also with Damian?" said Ivy, frowning and looking around.

"That's the worst, if I did then I don't remember," Harley complained.

"Damn it! Why does this happen? Listen, this can't happen again," said Ivy, getting up angrily while covering her body with a sheet.

"Yes, of course, this can't happen again… why can't this happen again?" said Harley, first nodding energetically before stopping and looking at Ivy.

"You're my best friend and I can't stand the idea of losing you, sex always ruins friendships," said Ivy, looking at Harley with a bit of sadness.

"You won't lose me—" said Harley, starting to get closer to Ivy before stopping at the sound of a door.

At that moment the bathroom door opened and Damian came out with a relaxed expression. He hadn't bathed last night, which left him a bit uncomfortable; habits are definitely very powerful.

"Oh, I see you're awake," said Damian, looking at them.

Ivy quickly sat on the bed and covered herself better. It wasn't that she felt embarrassed, but she wasn't going to expose herself just like that.

Unlike Harley, who didn't care and looked at Damian intently.

"What happened yesterday? Did we have a threesome? If so, that's bad because I don't remember," said Harley, looking at Damian. She wasn't in love with Damian, but as the most attractive person she had ever seen in her life, she would like to give it a try.

"We didn't have a threesome, you two started kissing and proceeded to undress," said Damian, chuckling.

"And you didn't join? Do you like men?" said Harley, surprised before looking at Damian with doubt.

Ivy also looked at Damian a bit strangely; 99% of men would have taken the opportunity if not all of them.

"Actually, I'm married," said Damian, not caring about their strange looks.

"Really? To whom?" said Harley quickly with curiosity.

Ivy, on the other hand, just pinched the top of her nose while sighing and closing her eyes.

Now that only she had slept with Harley, things were completely different. At least if they had slept with Damian, it didn't necessarily mean they had contact with each other.

And in the worst case, they would have shared a man.

"I have photos, want to see?" said Damian, smiling at Harley.

"Sure," said Harley, quickly getting up.

"First, how about you get dressed?" said Damian, looking at her speechless.

"Oh, right," said Harley, looking down and quickly looking for her clothes that were scattered all over the room.

Harley got dressed and quickly ran over to Damian, who had pulled out a tablet from nowhere.

"Look, this is my first wife, Carol," said Damian, showing Harley the picture on his tablet.

"First wife?" said Harley, looking at him in surprise before looking at the tablet.

"Wow, she's really beautiful, her blonde hair is more like gold and it shines slightly," said Harley in awe.

"Mm, my girl is very beautiful," said Damian, nodding as he smiled softly.

"She's Alice, my daughter with Carol," said Damian, changing the picture.

"How adorable!" said Harley, looking at the little girl.

Ivy looked at Harley, who was acting as if nothing had happened. She loved Harley, she wasn't sure if romantically, but she was her best friend and she really loved her.

She worried about how this might change things between them.

Finally, she just sighed before getting up wrapped in sheets, and walking to the bathroom.

While she was showering, she could hear Harley's loud exclamations.

Harley was all she had.

…

Batman could hardly sleep the previous night.

After the scare from Damian, he began working on ways to contain him, although his work was interrupted hours later when he intercepted a police communication.

Someone seemed to have fallen from a building. He immediately got serious upon seeing it was the same building where Damian was.

Reviewing the cameras, he quickly saw what had happened.

In the video appeared a man with silver hair who was barely visible on the screen due to the distance.

Suddenly, he made a throwing gesture before a humanoid silhouette started to fall. The silhouette seemed to be shirtless and was clearly male, the most striking thing was his blonde hair.

Batman gritted his teeth while clenching his fists tightly; in the end, it was as he thought, just a villain.

Even so, he still couldn't confront him; he must refine his contingency plan.

Suddenly another alarm came to his computer, making him frown. He opened the file and saw it was an emergency at a space station.

He quickly redirected the matter to Clark, after all, he couldn't go take care of it.

Batman's attention returned to the murder case on the hotel screen.

He still didn't know who the victim was, as the police were trying to identify him. The police literally had to scrape him off the ground with a spatula.

He waited about half an hour until the police finally identified the victim.

Victor Zsasz.

Bruce remained silent, staring at the name that appeared on his screen, the result of the police analysis.

A man who had been in Arkham several times but always managed to escape.

A maniac who seemed to have no chance of redemption.

Damian had thrown him from his own room in the early morning; it's not hard to guess what Victor was doing there.

Surely he snuck into the room and tried to kill them. Even so… Damian doesn't have the right to decide a person's life.

Batman's fists clenched tightly in the darkness of his cave while thoughts of relief betrayed his principles, thinking that Victor wouldn't go on to kill anyone else.

....

Ivy finished her bath and came out wrapped in a towel, glancing sideways at Harley, who was still looking at images on Damian's tablet.

Without paying attention to them, she suddenly saw her clothes neatly arranged on the bed. She smiled slightly, assuming Harley had picked them up and prepared them for her.

Taking the clothes, she went back to the bathroom, and in a few minutes, she came out dressed.

"Ivy, come look, Damian has a daughter with your name. She's really adorable," said Harley, seeing Ivy come out of the bathroom, calling her with excitement.

Ivy raised an eyebrow before approaching with some curiosity and looking at the screen.

A small girl with green hair and a mischievous smile seemed to be looking directly at the camera.

Seeing the girl, Ivy couldn't help but smile slightly. She was really cute.

"At first glance, it would be hard to say she's your daughter," said Ivy, looking at Damian. However now that she looked more closely, the girl had features similar to Damian's.

"I get that often," said Damian, nodding with a slight smile.

"So, what are we going to do today? By the way, you said you were a tourist, are you leaving at some point?" Harley asked, looking at Damian.

"Hm, in two days I'll leave," said Damian, nodding.

"I see, where do you live? Europe? It's a bit far, and since I'm a criminal, it's hard to get on a plane, but I'm sure I can steal one," said Harley, already making plans to visit Damian.

Damian just chuckled, looking at Harley, who seemed to be answering her own questions.

"Actually, I'm not from this planet, or this galaxy, or universe," said Damian, looking at Harley.

"Are you from another Earth?" asked Harley, looking at Damian. She didn't know much about it, only the basics.

"No, further out. Where I come from, you, Ivy, Batman, or Superman don't exist, unlike other Earths where doppelgangers exist."

"And I thought Europe was far away," said Harley, frowning.

Ivy looked at Damian with astonishment as Damian spoke of something too profound, the existence of universes beyond the known.

"From where I come, Earth also exists, and there are many similar things, but the people are entirely different. Metahumans don't exist, Kryptonians don't exist, nor do the Green Lanterns. It's a totally different universe."

"And how did you travel here?" asked Harley with curiosity.

"My scientists created an Omniversal portal. It took an absurd and immeasurable amount of energy to come here," said Damian, smiling.

"So we won't see each other again when you leave?" said Harley, looking at Damian. She really liked him, though she's a bit crazy, she's not stupid and can notice how Damian treats her.

He doesn't see her as a nuisance or push her away. Although they've known each other for less than 24 hours, Harley feels she has formed a connection with Damian.

"It's possible we won't see each other again," said Damian, nodding without lying to her.

"I see," said Harley, lowering her head, discouraged.

"So let's have fun while we can," said Damian, smiling slightly.

"Hm," said Harley, nodding.

"Yesterday we did what I wanted. How about today we go destroy some polluting companies?" said Harley, looking at Ivy.

Ivy couldn't help but chuckle. That was a fairly usual activity for them.

"You have a connection with the planet's plant life, I suppose," said Damian, nodding while looking at Ivy.

"Something like that. At first, it was hard for me. Feeling the planet's suffering led me to do many things, but little by little, I was able to control myself."

"Yes, Ivy was a bit crazy before, kissing everyone," said Harley, laughing.

"It's not like that! It was just the most efficient way to use my power," said Ivy, looking at Harley with annoyance.

"Okay, then let's do it," said Damian, smiling slightly.

"But first, let's have breakfast. I'm starving," said Harley, hugging her stomach.

"Let's call room service," said Ivy, nodding.

"Yes, about that, I don't think it's a good idea," said Damian, smiling ironically.

"Why?" said Harley, looking at Damian, confused.

"Actually, last night a guy tried to kill us, but I threw him off the balcony," said Damian, surprising both.

"What?" said Harley, confused, before running and looking out the balcony.

To her surprise, the street was full of police who kept looking up. She suddenly made eye contact with one, causing him to point at her.

"We're surrounded, but it doesn't matter. We can fly," said Harley, looking fearlessly downward.

"But why haven't they knocked down our door?" asked Ivy, confused.

"I didn't let the elevator reach our floor, and the stairs became infinite. There are still unconscious cops on the stairs who fell from exhaustion," said Damian, smiling slightly.

"You're good," said Ivy, nodding, amazed. Still, if she thinks about it, it's normal for someone who can travel between Omniverses like Damian.

"Then let's go to a restaurant and have breakfast before the police catch us," said Harley, smiling.

…

While Damian spent time with Harley and Ivy.

At the bottom of the sea, a humanoid creature was massacring soldiers who were investigating the area.

A strange meteorite along with a space station had fallen in the area, so investigations had started immediately.

As the best option, Aquaman's tribe was looking for the remains of the space station, trying to figure out what had happened while also searching for the meteorite to send samples to the laboratories.

Suddenly, a humanoid creature about 8 feet tall emerged from the wreckage, alarming the Atlanteans.

The creature had a kind of green suit with studs, more than a suit, it almost looked like a straitjacket.

The Atlanteans surrounded the creature while one of them stepped forward to try to communicate.

Before anyone could react, the humanoid creature grabbed the Atlantean's head before crushing it.

The other Atlanteans immediately became enraged before attacking the creature, but all were killed without exception.

The humanoid creature seemed to look around before fixing a direction and starting to move forward.
