After scratching Galatea's itch and allowing Astrid to watch like a perv, the two ladies were sleeping together on our large bed with Astrid's smaller form lying between Galatea's large breasts.
I shifted out of the bed and as I sat on the edge of it and just stared at my tiled floor, I felt the weight of my actions as I knew all too well that canon and even just villains in general would be on the back foot for years after I killed so many of them.
But the Light was the driving force of the entire Young Justice universe for the next decade if the timeline was to follow itself and although much later on it seemed like teen titans' stuff was going to happen along with other alien threats coming to visit. But once the Light was out of the picture? I had literally no reason to be on Earth and subject myself to that morality or fear of Superman snapping and putting his fist through my chest after taking a couple month month-long naps in our sun and coming out invincible.
I stood up and with a flash of my will I bent the reality in my realm, so I became clean and fully dressed in my parody of a Gotei thirteen captain outfit as with a thrum of space being pushed aside, I took a step and began Traveling to earth with my true essence and I could feel the warm soft spring winds at my back pushing me along as I hurtled through time and space with only one objective in my mind.
The lynchpin of Light needed to die. Now.
I wasn't going to take my time taking out the other members as they could be dealt with by the league after their magical protections faded.
Once Vandal Savage was dead and there was no longer a 'first among equals' in the Light then the ego's present in all those villains would make them strike out alone leaving them easy pickings for the League anyway.
As I traveled in Fae paths that I created with each step I saw through the ever-reflecting surrounding dimensions and with my mind and soul so solely fixed on finding one man with such a large imprint in my timeline/universe, and was no longer shielded. It was child's play to find Vandal Savage.
The moment I landed on Earth inside the very room that Vandal Savage was within I reached forward as I planned to drag him into my realm so I could fight him at my leisure I felt true death within the room as it were, so I lowered my arm as Vandal Savage leisurely turned in his spinning chair towards me as I focused on the real threat in the room.
"The God Slayer Blade... I am very surprised Hephaestus still allows you to carry it." I remarked as I took in Wade Wilson, The Terminator or better known as Deathstroke as he held the gold with silver streaks along the sword in his lap.
"Heh. When I offered to kill Ares for free after letting me borrow this for a decade, he was all for it." Slade replied evenly as he stood up and my eyes remained locked on the God Slayer Blade as it was one of the most powerful weapons in the DC universe due to it having Xth metal weaved into its creation.
Xth metal is literally the metal that was born of the creation of all of the greater DC Omniverse and not even just this one universe/timeline... So, to say the least, it was rare in the extreme and even I couldn't find any while Traveling due to its ability to change fate, and karma, and just generally bend reality around it passively. Then when someone has it, they can use their willpower to augment the powers they already have, while still having their bodies massively boosted on all levels while getting a massive boost in luck as the Xth metal passively takes in the wielder's desire to make things go their way.
"Slade you are protecting Savage, I take it?" I asked softly as I felt space seal around me as Slade obviously readied for battle.
"Yes, he is under my employment at least for the time," Vandal spoke but then growled as Slade stabbed the sword at him and the God Slayer sword showed its weird Xth metal effects as it stretched more than ten meters long and stabbed into Vandal Savage and then violently morphed sending shredding spikes into Vandal Savage coring out his chest before the sword retracted into Slade's hand and taking on its standard large form that was difficult to explain.
"I absolutely despise people talking for me..." Slade spoke coldly as he stood up and I could feel that the sword had actually extinguished Vandal Savages soul so even as his body regenerated... The vessel was hollow as it were.
"Hey... I wanted to be the one to kill him? I literally killed a Chaos Lord and got the attention of cosmic forces to get the chance and then you rob me of that, with your mary sue sword bullshit fuck you Slade Wilson!" I yelled at the mind boggling let down as I wanted to kill himself. Hell, I would have been more satisfied with fighting Slade while he escapes, and I just hunt him down later...
But him just getting turned into an immortal stuck in a mental vegetable state was not at all in my book of grudges and how to solve them.
As I cursed Deathstroke I did two things. I first shot a high-power Cero at him and then I shot another one above me as I tunneled out from whatever bunker this was and as I came up out of my impromptu tunnel, I saw I was in some deep forest or something.
I quickly Sonido'd to the side as literally teleported to my side and swung the deadly sword at my neck but my high-speed technique tore me away as I blurred behind the man to punch him in the back hard enough to send him through several trees before he collided with the ground and tore a thirty meter long and ten-meter-deep ditch with his form.
But the physical blow did little to him as just like in the DC universe if they blow doesn't actually punch through them or you don't use exotic effects like Ki or whatever it felt like playing pinball as you smashed someone with enhanced durability through the surroundings.
"The sword has gotten a lock on you. That little speed trick won't work on me again." Slade warned me and I hummed in thought as I realized this wasn't a hunt on me for a contract or otherwise, I had offended the Terminator. No, he wanted a fight worthy of legends and to push himself to the brink as he already said he was going to kill Ares at some point.
So, I felt a bit of warrior respect between the two of us as his red glowing single eye in his mask stared at me, I nodded in respect to him as I knew with space sealed and him being able to teleport and fly that I couldn't escape even if I wanted to...
So, this was going to be a battle to the death as it were.
