Chapter 627 Clark Doesn't Want to Be Superman

"You mean Peter Padrick?"

The butcher was stunned for a moment and asked Ciri.

"Yes, he said his father was Peter Patrick, and I don't think that was a false sentiment."

Ciri thought back to what she had said to Homelander before, and said to Hughie and the others, "I can travel through time and space, and go to Peter's world to seek help from the teacher."

Hearing Ciri asking Peter for help, Hughie turned around and asked Ciri curiously: "Miss Ciri, what is your relationship with Mr. Padrick?
"He is my teacher."

After thinking for a moment, Ciri added, "He is not only a teacher, but also a father figure to me."

Seeing Ciri's gentle eyes, Xingguang, who had attended the "Adult Senior" party with Peter, asked her: "Ciri, what kind of person is Mr. Padrick in your eyes?"

Hearing Starlight's question, Ciri fell into deep thought.

After a while, she said to Xingguang, "He...he is an extraordinary person. He is very powerful and has long since become indifferent to good and evil in the world. He has his own views on things. He speaks with humor and can be cold and silent when necessary. You can't tell what he wants to express from his actions, but you can only see a slight change in his expression. He can also be so attentive that he can give you a perfect guide for your life based on your clothes, words, worries, accommodation, life, help, etc.

"He doesn't care whether you are poor or rich. As long as you can get his approval and what you ask for is reasonable, he will do it for you."

Ciri thought back to the time she spent with Peter, a small smile on her face.

"He taught me to still believe in hope after seeing the darkness of human nature."

Ciri's words caused everyone to fall into silence.

Xingguang took a deep breath and turned to look at the scenery outside the moving car.

She didn't know Peter well, but she could see that Ciri's feelings for Peter were probably more than just that of a father and teacher.

……

Padraic Farm.

Peter is playing Gwent with Clark.

Because it was the weekend, Clark did not go to class at Piltover University.

Peter glanced at the thoughtful Clarke and played a Gwent card that read "Geralt of Rivia".

Clark was shocked when he saw that this card had an attack power of fifteen.

"Godfather, when did you come into possession of this card?"

Clark asked him in surprise.

He remembered that when Zhihe was playing cards with the Godfather, the Godfather did not have this card in his hand.

"Ciri gave it to me when she left."

Peter's eyebrows moved, "Why, do you have any objections?"

On the farm, besides Peter, Clark has also recently become addicted to Gwent.

Because of his obsession with Quint, he even spent less time with Lana and Louise.

But this is normal.

After all, Henry Cavill, who plays Superman, not only transforms into Superman to save the world on the screen, but also makes a cameo appearance as Geralt in the Witcher world.

Superman suddenly became a demon hunter.

Now Clark likes Gwent and The Witcher, which may be the fate formed in the previous life.

Stroke his chin, Peter suddenly thought: The actor who plays Superman also likes Warhammer!

Could it be that Clark also has some kind of indissoluble bond with the Warhammer world? !
Being looked at by Peter with strange eyes, Clark felt a little confused and asked: "What's wrong? Godfather."

"No, I was just thinking of something else."

Peter looked away from Clark, thought for a moment, and then asked him, "Do you like tabletop chess games, Clark?"

Clark didn't know why Peter asked him this question, but he nodded and said, "Yeah, I like tabletop chess games too, Godfather."

"Although I seldom play with others, A-Zu doesn't like table flags, and I can't find a suitable game partner. You know, Godfather, when my brain works at high speed, it always makes me think of a lot, and my thinking becomes agile. Ordinary people can't beat me like this."

"Since I started playing chess, an intellectual game, I realized that I am different from ordinary people. In fact, I am not an ordinary person."

Clark expressed his inner thoughts to Peter, "But in a sense, I think I am also an ordinary person. I am not nobler or superior than ordinary people."

Peter put down the Quint cards in his hand and said to Clark: "Well, I'm not surprised that you think so, because Clark, you are Superman."

"Superman?"

Clark repeated the word in his mouth, and said to Peter in a somewhat depressed mood: "Actually, I don't want to be Superman, Godfather."

"You don't want to be Superman?!"

Peter was shocked when he heard Clark's words.

Are you feeling itchy, kid?
Would you say to yourself that you feel that the duties of Superman are too tiring? ! "Yes, after Injustice, I know that all Clarks will become Superman."

Clark looked up and looked Peter in the eyes, "But does anyone ever really care about Superman?"

"No one really cares about Superman, and those who say they care, don't care about Superman, and even if they think they care, they don't really care...Because Godfather, I don't think anyone except you understands what's truly special about Superman."

Clark's eyes revealed sadness. "When I first awakened my abilities as a child, I frequently got into trouble because I couldn't control my extraordinary powers. When I first encountered a criminal as a young and frivolous person, I was treated as a monster because of my childish sense of justice and inappropriate actions. When I first endured other people's doubts, when I first acted as a hero..."

"No one knows this, and no one cares, but you, Godfather, care. When I blame myself, you will say to him: Maybe this is a good thing, you know? Who wants to be ordinary? Maybe it's better to be different."

"When I'm lost, you'll tell me: Believe that there are still people who are not that bad, Clark. I want you to be a believer and defender, even if your opponent is a monster..."

Looking into Peter's eyes, Clark paused and expressed his true feelings for Peter.
"Godfather, no one will care about Superman, only you will care about Clark Kent, so compared to being Superman, I would rather accompany you in Smallville, protect you, and we will go on adventures in different worlds together, along with John, Star-Lord, Loki, Raven, and Boom."

Peter: "..."

He didn't expect Clark to have such an idea.

Instead of saving the world, Superman wants to be a cowboy on a farm for the rest of his life!

Although he was somewhat moved by Clark's words, he felt that he had to give Clark some chicken soup.

Otherwise he was really worried that Clark would not be able to become Superman.

"Clark, you will be a spiritual role model for people."

Peter put his hand on Clark's shoulder and said, "Your future is not limited to me or Smallwell. You should have a more magnificent life."

Clark hesitated and asked Peter, "Godfather, what do you think the Superman in your mind will be like?"

"The Superman I want to see?"

Stunned by Clark's question, Peter organized his words and said, "He...he can make the right decision at any time. Saving is always better than defeating for him. He will not let his victorious figure stand on the ruins of the city. He will not lose his good nature because of the temptation of evil. He wants to be a hero, not for revenge, nor to fill the void, but because doing so will make him feel that his life is more meaningful."

With a smile on his lips, Peter showed a hint of relief in his eyes.

"He would be busy around the world, feeling tired, and sit on the roof of the metropolis. He seemed to be a little confused about the good and evil in the world, but when he saw the sun rise as usual, he would still smile contentedly: 'Good morning!'"

Patting Clark on the shoulder, Peter said to him: "But...you don't have to be whoever I expect you to be, Clark. You can be whoever you want to be according to your own wishes."

"Aren't you worried that I might turn bad, Godfather?"

"Do not."

Peter shook his head and said, "Because I believe that my Clark did not have the idea of ​​'upholding justice' by chance due to any external trauma or coincidence. His kindness and perseverance are rooted in himself."

"My Clark is a man from Smallville who possesses the greatest superpowers. His absolute power does not lead to absolute corruption. On the contrary, his absolute power keeps him away from fear, greed, and hatred."

"godfather……"

Clark suddenly felt a little sad when he was touched by Peter's sincere heartfelt love.

He didn't expect that the Godfather understood, trusted and loved him better than he thought.

The Godfather said that he didn't want to leave Smallville and go to Metropolis to be Superman anymore.

Clark was moved when a wave came through the air.

Then, in front of Peter and Clark's astonished eyes, a portal suddenly opened.

Ciri, who had already left, walked out of the portal carrying the Sword of Gryffindor.

"Ciri?!"

Peter looked at Ciri in surprise.

How come my swift came back so soon? !

"teacher!"

Ciri excitedly went forward and gave Peter a hug.

"I guess you've been in some trouble, haven't you?"

After hugging Ciri, Peter said to her.

“Yes, I’m in some trouble, it’s about you, sir.

Ciri took a deep breath and told Peter what happened to her in the black robe world.

"Is it the black robe A-Zu?"

After listening, Peter fell into deep thought.

He didn't expect that Ciri could accidentally enter the black robe world!
Will Ciri one day enter the world before she traveled through time and space and watched the meteor shower?

Throwing away the messy thoughts in his mind, Peter raised his head and said to Clark in a serious tone: "Clark, follow Ciri back to the black robe world first. I need to prepare some things and I will rush over later."
