Black-robed Superman from a certain American comic book

"Am I not an adult yet?"

Jupiter thought this was a good idea, but the problem was that Deborah would be a tough hurdle to overcome.

"I was asking if you wanted to drink, not whether you were an adult."

"Besides, according to the rules of our Veltum, from the moment you gained superpowers, you were already an adult Veltum citizen with a huge responsibility."

Nolan patted Jupiter on the shoulder and spoke.

"In that case, I'll definitely have some."

Jupiter nodded slightly. As long as Nolan could persuade Deborah, everything would be fine.

After taking turns showering, the father and son turned on the TV...

I was watching the latest news while sipping red wine.

"Oh my God!"

"Excuse me, everyone, please allow me to insert a news announcement here..."

The beautiful host, who was describing the meteorite event to the audience, turned pale after receiving a message. It seemed that just seeing this information was enough to terrify her.

"Everyone, I hope you can calm down..."

"Please listen to me calmly..."

"Just now I received a message: our heroes, the members of the Global Guardians—Aquaman, Darkwing, Wargirl, Martian, Immortal, Green Goblin, and Red Speed—were attacked by an unknown enemy and have all perished..."

"Oh my god! I wish it were April Fool's Day and just an April Fool's joke..."

As the beautiful female host spoke, two lines of clear tears slowly flowed from her eyes.

"Cheers, son."

Nolan watched the news report on television and raised his glass.

"Dad, let's drink to the disappearance of the Global Guard!"

Jupiter swirled the wine glass in his hand, which gently clinked against Nolan's glass.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The next second, the father and son burst out laughing again without prior arrangement.

While the world mourns the passing of the Global Guardians and silently mourns their heroes, the most powerful father and son on the planet are raising their glasses in celebration, indulging in their joy through alcohol.

I must say, today is truly a sorrowful day...

When Deborah returned, she looked at the wine glasses in the room and Jupiter, who seemed to be completely drunk but was actually oblivious due to his superhuman abilities, and her brows furrowed.

"Nolan, I need an explanation."

Deborah crossed her arms and glared at Nolan. She felt that Nolan had set a bad example for Jupiter; how could someone so young drink like this?!

"Deborah, let's call it a day!"

Nolan pointed to the news that seemed to be broadcasting on the television behind him about the death of the guards, his face full of grief.

"Ugh……"

Deborah glanced at the news of the Global Guard's passing on television and sighed softly.

She hugged Nolan and Jupiter tightly.

May all the suffering in this world pass away.

Deborah was filled with pain; she was truly in pain.

May all the suffering in this world pass away.

Nolan and Jupiter exchanged a glance and repeated Deborah's words. They also looked to be in pain, but one was faking it, while the other was genuinely struggling to suppress his laughter.

"Sisels just informed me that I will be reading the eulogy for the Global Guard tomorrow. People all over the world are too fragile right now, and I must take up the mantle to give them confidence..."

"By the way, after the global memorial service, there will be a small, private funeral. Only friends from the Global Guard and a few people who know the true identity of the Global Guard will attend. You should go too."

Nolan patted Jupiter and Deborah on the shoulder.

"of course."

Jupiter nodded. It would be a disservice to his ancestors if he didn't attend such a spectacular show.

"pat..."

Just as Jupiter, Nolan, and Deborah were immersed in grief over attending the Global Guardians' funeral, the door to the house was suddenly opened, and Mark, humming a tune and seemingly quite happy, walked into the house.

"Um?!"

Mark frowned as he looked at the three people in the room who were radiating grief.

Did I miss something?

Mark looked at everyone and asked in confusion.

"No, you didn't miss anything, my silly little brother."

Jupiter looked at Mark and sighed. Seeing Mark's radiant face, he knew Mark was in trouble; he had fallen in love.

As for who made Mark fall in love? Jupiter knew perfectly well who it was—that blonde little sister named Amber…

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Go with peace of mind, Rex!

The golden sunlight shone brightly on the flag of the Free Nation fluttering in the wind!

One by one, renowned superheroes, accompanied by their families, sat orderly on the numerous seats set up in the square. Everyone remained silent, commemorating the passing of the world's greatest heroes, the Global Guardians, in this way.

Mark, Deborah, and Jupiter sat quietly in a spot closer to the center.

"Whoosh! Boom..."

In the silence, two of the Free Nation's best fighter jets roared overhead, and between those two warships, the man who pierced the sky was none other than the strongest person on this planet, the omnipotent Nolan!

He flew into the sky between the fighter jets, and then the sunlight above him slowly descended.

Finally, he stood on the podium bearing the logo of the Global Defense Agency.

"To protect this world, I have fought countless battles that are beyond comprehension. I have defeated alien overlords, nightmares from the depths of hell, and ancient and powerful gods who walk on the earth, attempting to enslave humanity once again!"

"But no matter what enemy I fight, I know I am not alone: ​​Darkwing, Aquaman, Wargirl, Redspeed, Green Goblin, Immortal, Martian, everyone in the Global Guardians..."

"Today, we have lost a giant, a protector, a hero!"

"You'll find yourself asking yourselves, now that the guards have disappeared, who can help you?!"

"I can tell you right here, I will! And my children will! New heroes are answering the call!"

At that moment, Nolan, who was standing on the podium, winked at Jupiter in the audience.

"Mark, let's get ready to go on stage!"

Jupiter understood Nolan's meaning, and he stood up and patted Mark on the shoulder.

"What?! Go on stage?! Now?! Go on stage in casual clothes?"

Mark looked at his suit, completely bewildered. No one had informed him beforehand that he was part of this globally televised speech.

"Of course, we should come on stage in superhero costumes. The people need us."

Jupiter produced two sets of combat uniforms.

"Um... okay!"

Mark looked at the combat uniform in front of him, remained silent for a few seconds, and then nodded.

A few seconds later, Mark and Jupiter, dressed in their combat uniforms, descended from the sky and landed beside Nolan.

"A free spirit, an invincible young hero..."

Nolan introduced the heroic titles of Jupiter and Mark.

"We were not fighting alone before, and we are certainly not fighting alone now!"

"The superheroes of the new era have awakened!"

"They hate evil like poison! They will never allow evil to run rampant because of the guard's disappearance!"

Nolan's voice is full of passion and energy.

"When you encounter danger, you must firmly believe in your faith, and never forget to look up at the sky..."

After Nolan finished speaking, he patted Mark and Jupiter on the shoulder.

The next second, the three of them tore through the air and flew into the sky...

"So that bastard Nolan turned this live broadcast meant to mourn the Global Guardians into a celebrity show for him and his son?! What does he take us for?! That despicable alien bastard..."

Yes, not only did Mark not know he was going to play, but even Cecils didn't know that Nolan would call his two sons onto the stage and introduce them to the world.

It's as if Nolan deliberately let his children climb to power over the Guardians of the Galaxy...

Sisel's face darkened, much like the sky outside the building gradually turning from sunny to cloudy. He had to start thinking about Nolan's opinion of Jupiter, and at the same time, whether Nolan had played a role in the deaths of the Global Guardians. He now suspected that perhaps Nolan's entire family was involved in the deaths of the Global Guardians.

After the morning's live broadcast ended, a light rain suddenly began to fall, as if the whole world was silently weeping in pain for the passing of the Global Guardians' superheroes.

In the heroes' cemetery, Nolan, Mark, Jupiter, and Deborah, dressed in black suits, stood with the families of all the superheroes, holding umbrellas, silently watching the superheroes being buried.

The raindrops, "drip, drip, drip..." pattered against everyone's hearts.

Eight coffins were arranged in an orderly fashion on the lawn...

Yes, there were eight coffins in total. In addition to Dark Wing, Aquaman, Red Speed, Green Goblin, Wargirl, Martian, and Immortal from the Global Guardians, there was also Rex...

Originally, Rex was absolutely not qualified to have his funeral held alongside the seven great veterans of the Global Guard.

However, at Jupiter's insistence, Rex was granted the privilege of being buried alongside seven world-renowned superheroes!

"Thank me, Rex!"

"From today onwards, you will no longer be an unknown figure. At least when the mourners come to the cemetery to lay flowers for the heroes, kind and generous people will surely ask, 'Why are there eight coffins when there are seven members of the mourning team?' With the staff's explanation, perhaps a few more beautiful flowers will be added to your grave."

Jupiter looked at Rex's grave with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"Rex..."

Eve looked at Rex being buried with a pained expression. Now that she thought about it, she realized that she had ignored Rex for a whole month. If she had known that Rex would die, she should have been more forgiving.

Eve gazed at the grave. She took a few more steps forward. The ground, wet from the rain, was not only slippery but also slippery. Wearing high heels, Eve lost her balance and began to tilt.
