Chapter 990 The Debate of the Three Giants
"The Joker's behavior has crossed the line."

Faced with Superman's questions, Diana went straight to the point.

"Bruce, you promised us before that you would deal with the Joker problem, but the current situation is completely different from what you promised."

Batman remained silent in the face of Diana's questioning. The Joker's actions this time were completely beyond his expectations, which made him feel that the Joker might do something even more terrible in the future.

"Alright, Diana." Superman stepped in between the two of them. "Regarding the Joker's issue, Bruce is indeed wrong, but we can work with everyone on this matter..."

"You too, Clark!" Diana glared at Superman who was blocking her way, and the latter stood there in a daze and pointed at her.

"Me? What's wrong with me?"

"You and Bruce always give those criminals multiple chances, but it turns out that those criminals never learn their lesson."

The biggest difference between the three giants is that only Diana kills people. Superman and Batman always show mercy to the people on Earth. This is why Diana is more like a warrior than a hero.

There is actually no way to do this. After all, both of them grew up in native Earth families and received traditional Earth education. In this respect, they cannot be compared with Diana's Amazon education.

Diana can swing her sword at the villains without hesitation, which is something that neither Superman nor Batman can do easily.

"Giving others a second chance is indeed a noble act," Diana said, changing the subject. "But an evil soul like the Joker shouldn't be alive today."

"I understand. I'll take care of it."

Batman's answer was exactly the same as last time, and Diana even thought she was facing a parrot.

Just when Diana was about to say something, Superman stopped her again.

"Give Bruce some time," Superman said softly. "He's been carrying a lot of weight lately. Let's focus on the Joker."

Diana remembered that there might be a traitor in the Justice League, and that Bruce suddenly had a child. These two things, one public and one private, were indeed two huge mountains weighing on him.

"Okay." Diana softened her heart and stopped blaming Batman. She felt that today's conversation could end here, so she prepared to turn around and leave.

"By the way," Diana said without turning around. "If you can't take down the Psychic Pirate, I can help you deal with him. Helping a pitiful soul find peace is a hero's duty."

After saying this, Diana pushed the door and left the meeting room, leaving Batman and Superman looking at each other in bewilderment.

...

It was already night when Diana left the Hall of Justice. After saying hello to the moon in the sky, Diana flew back to her new home - a two-story building in Smallville.

As she spent more time living here, Diana's satisfaction with the place also increased. It was not only because of the quiet environment and the simple folk customs compared to the metropolis, but also because there was someone waiting for her every time she returned here.

Looking at the small house with warm lights on, Diana, who was tired after a day, finally smiled. She slowly walked to the door and rang the doorbell. Diana waited quietly for the person to open the door for her.

"Crack!"

The door opened cleanly, but Diana's first glance was in vain. This meant the person opening the door wasn't tall enough for her to look at. After a moment's pause, Diana came to her senses and shifted her gaze downwards. Sure enough, a petite girl had replaced the person she had been thinking of. She stood at the doorway, looking at Diana with her large, twinkling eyes, as if to say, "Welcome back."

Diana laughed silently, and the little bit of dissatisfaction in her heart completely disappeared. She leaned over and gently stroked the little girl's head and said.

"I'm back Cassandra, thank you for picking me up."

Cassandra did not reject Diana's intimate gesture. Instead, she enjoyed it very much. She waited until the latter put down her hand before raising her hand and gesturing.

"You mean, dinner is coming soon, right?"

Diana touched Cassandra's face tenderly, and only after receiving her affirmative answer did she take her hand and walk into the house.

Cassandra was the little girl that Yang Le brought back two days ago. At first, Diana was caught off guard by Yang Le's sudden action, but fortunately, the latter quickly explained it to him.

It turned out that Cassandra was the little girl Yang Le met when he infiltrated the Assassin's League last time. He liked this little girl very much at that time, and after learning about her situation, he even wanted to bring her back.

But Cassandra is not the kind of ungrateful person who will go with you just because you ask her to. Therefore, Yang Le can only choose to crawl to the Assassin's League to see her when he wants to see Cassandra.

Although it sounds outrageous, according to Yang Le, he has sneaked into this place known as the gathering place of assassin masters four times, and he brought Cassandra out on the fifth time.

As for how she was brought out, after hearing the whole story, Diana immediately agreed with Yang Le's idea of ​​taking Cassandra in.

It turned out that Cassandra's father recently felt that reality had come, and wanted to arrange a real assassination mission for Cassandra, that is, to really let her kill someone.

Originally, Cassandra was very naive and didn't know what killing meant. However, Yang Le's first four visits were not in vain. During these four visits, he taught Cassandra a lot of knowledge.

This includes information about the League of Assassins and what his father's job is.

But even so, Cassandra, who had never been taught anything about values ​​since childhood, was not very clear about the idea of ​​taking a life. However, from what Yang Le said, it didn't seem to be a good thing.

However, this level was not enough to make Cassandra leave the Assassin's League on her own initiative until David Cain actually took Cassandra with him on a mission.

This is what David told Cassandra at the time.

"Just like you usually do in training, just stick the weapon into the opponent's body."

Cassandra was stunned when she saw her father, who was the same as always, yet a little different. However, her obedient nature made her carry out the first half of the mission honestly.

It was not until the second half, when Cassandra saw the confusion and bewilderment in the target's eyes, that she suddenly understood what Yang Le had said to her.

Killing means taking away life. The person whose life is taken away will not be able to eat delicious food, listen to interesting stories, be with the one they love, or see their parents or children.

Cassandra immediately realized that this was wrong, so she punched David backhanded and ran away.
