章節 26: chapter 26 : Symbol of Justice
The family looked at where that voice was coming from and it was the immortal who was looking at Lucas with contempt.
Immortal: (Points at Lucas) The massacre you committed at the bank this morning, do you think you won't have to be held accountable?! I know you're Nolan's son like Invincible here, you savagely massacred the lizard league with this kid and you think you're a hero? You're just a butcher like your father.
Lucas: (comes closer) You're right old man, I'm not a hero. Yes, I massacred those terrorists and you have no idea how happy that made me. These monsters killed an honest man who was doing his job and there was no way I was going to let them live so that balance could be restored. Unlike you heroes, when I face a villain, I put myself in the place of his victims.
Immortal: Next time you commit a massacre like this little I-(interrupted)
Lucas: You won't do anything, I'm doing it for the people vulnerable to these bastards and they know it. I'm not Nolan and I don't intend to make a comedy with you all, what I want above all is to protect the population.
Immortal: By committing massacres ?!
Lucas: If necessary.
Immortal: I'll have my eyes on you kid and if I see you slip up like your father, I'll-*Glurp*
At a speed the immortal couldn't keep up with, Lucas grabbed and squeezed his neck to suspend him nearly a meter above the ground.
The immortal tried to remove Lucas' hand but without success, the young man's strength was far beyond his own and it aroused a deep feeling of fear in him.
However, this fear was only the beginning until the moment he looked at Lucas' bruised face with more attention and the young man's cold gaze made his blood run cold.
It was at this precise moment that his fear became terror, it was at this moment that he experienced deep despair after centuries and it was at this moment that he faced what was happening. came closest to an incarnation of death itself.
Lucas: I hate being threatened, old man. I saw your fight with Nolan and you got crushed like a bug, you think you can match me ?
Mark: LUCAS!!!
Lucas: (Continues) If I wanted to harm the earth and its inhabitants, what could stop me? YOU ?! Don't make an enemy of someone who isn't an enemy and know that this is the last time you threaten me.
Deborah : Lucas please stop it.
Lucas: (Continues) You and the other heroes have the blood of all the victims of the villains you lock up on your hands because they all eventually come out and start their crimes again.
You don't kill them out of virtue, you spare them because without the bad guys you heroes will be useless and non-existent. Consequently, by your desire to maintain this eternal game you are as much accomplices as you are in their crimes and responsible for the deaths they cause.
He let go of the neck of the immortal who fell on one of his knees while coughing, Lucas looked at him as cold as ever.
Lucas: Immortal, if I completely crush your head like a watermelon, do you think we can still bring you back to life?! Think about it wisely before treating me like an enemy next time. (looks at the others) Let's go, the little one is certainly hungry like mom said. Goodbye Donald.
Mark and Deborah looked at each other before quietly following him with Saeko who looked strangely at The Immortal before leaving.
No one spoke about what had just happened because they knew that Lucas was right in his speech and that apparently he was strong enough to easily overpower The Immortal, if he wanted to kill him then he would have. maybe already done.
When they arrived at the mansion, they found Amber, Eve and Art there. Eve saw Mark and she rushed to hug him, he had left this planet for a while and she was very worried.
When the girls saw the baby, they were all moved and without even being told anything, they went to do something to him because Lucas and the others had picked up some baby food on the way.
The next day, all of Arlington was in turmoil as news of FEAR's return broke thanks to the video of the Lizard League massacre.
The fact was that it had been revealed to the public for a while that FEAR was just like Invincible the son of Omni-man because not only were their powers similar but his disappearance completely corresponded with the death of the Graysons' second son, Lucas.
Making the connection hadn't been difficult for people and Lucas knew it but he didn't really care.
Humans being what they are, many people have held protests to show their rejection of FEAR.
Because of the Lizard League massacre, they said he was like Omni-man, a dangerous psychopath with superpowers and that he needed to be stopped.
However, other people showed their support and wished the vigilante a safe return. A video was even circulating on the internet and it was a compilation of thanks from the bereaved families who showed their gratitude to FEAR for having avenged their deceased and wished him a safe return.
At the end of the video, there was the family of the guard killed by the Lizard League. His wife looked quite young and she was carrying twins in her arms, now orphaned.
The tearful woman sincerely thanked FEAR for avenging her husband but above all for understanding and carrying her anger and frustration, feelings that the other heroes ignored in the name of their hypocritical ideals.
The best was the sudden and radical drop in crime in the city, the return of FEAR was like an invitation to death for a crime especially if there was a victim and it was a clear message, FEAR had gone from 'a person has a symbol, the symbol of fear itself for the wicked.
In almost every major city, several vigilantes sharing the ideals of FEAR but who were still holding back ended up coming out of the shadows to apply justice, true justice, blind justice without any morality or restraint, upright and sharp against those who had until now shed innocent blood with impunity.
The fact was that for centuries humans had confused law and justice, where law was a set of rules for the benefit of some for a lie to all, justice was a concept of absolute balance and FEAR had shown the path.
It was unfair for a person to commit murder and only be imprisoned for such an act. While loved ones mourn their deceased for life, the murderer will continue to eat, sleep, laugh and live fully after having deprived an innocent of his life, after having extinguished a universe arising from the existence of this person, after having created an eternal void in the hearts of those close to the deceased.
Where was justice and who benefited from it in the courts? They needed someone to avenge them, they needed people who could understand that their tears had flowed and that they wanted to be consoled in the fairest way. FEAR had figured them out but now he wasn't going to be the only one to do it.
[Several days later]
It had been almost two weeks since Mark had returned and now he and Lucas were at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean fighting monsters from the deep that had awakened after centuries of slumber and there were exactly two of them at the moment .
One of them looked like a giant snake, almost 3 kilometers long, it was extremely large and its every movement created large waves on the surface.
The other was a crab as huge as two football fields and contrary to what their sizes suggested, both monsters were gifted with great speed underwater.
Since the Graysons had reconciled with the GDA, they had started working with them again in partnership and the alert came to them from Cecil.
It was an extreme emergency and the Grayson brothers were the best people he could count on since their father Omni-man was the usual candidate for this kind of case.
