Paint the World in My Colors

"I'm serious, we need to talk about Beckett."

"Mera has already told me about you."

Diana did not flinch from Beckett's cold gaze and spoke sincerely.

She knew Bruce Wayne's character very well, so Diana felt it was necessary to get to know this nominal "relative" of hers before Bruce did.

She didn't want to see a tragedy similar to Superman repeat itself, and she especially didn't want to see Bruce Wayne get punched in the head by Beckett.

Beckett is currently unfamiliar with this world, and she can take this opportunity to get closer to Beckett and tell him about the rules and order of this world.

Just like Steve did before.

She had originally planned to talk to Beckett about this yesterday, but she was interrupted halfway there when that idiot Steppenwolf came to snatch her away.

After Steppenwolf fled, she didn't have time to look for Beckett because of her discussion with Bruce. After finishing her discussion with Bruce, she had to rush back to Paradise Island to check information.

She had planned to have a proper talk with Beckett through Mera after returning from Paradise Island, but instead, she ran into Beckett on the streets of London.

Let's talk about it then.

"Mera?" Beckett remained unmoved.

Only he knew how much exaggeration was in the story Woz told Mera.

"In a sense, I am the same Beckett as you."

"I was once just as ignorant of the world as you were, and I also lost my lover just as you were." As Diana faced the River Thames, a hint of reminiscence and sadness appeared in her eyes when she mentioned her lover.

"Continue." Beckett's commanding tone left Diana both amused and exasperated.

"I know you may have been in a very high position in the past, but listen to Beckett, the world is no longer the world you know."

"You have to learn to adapt to this world. Only by adapting to it will you not feel out of place."

Diana carefully chose her tone, trying to persuade Beckett in a way that would not offend Beckett.

"I will never adapt to any world, ever." Beckett chuckled, taking a step closer to Diana's face.

"My father once said that if I wanted to, the world would change because of me."

Do you understand?

At such close range, Diana could even feel Beckett's breath.

Diana felt she would never forget that look in her eyes, a look that was a mixture of indifference and arrogance.

"Beckett!"

"Beckett, I don't know who to turn to. My father has sealed off all exits. I'm helpless Beckett. Please help me!"

"Beckett, can you hear me?"

"Please, please save me..."

Suddenly Mera's slightly tearful voice came from the white conch shell that Beckett tied to his waist.

"Mera? What's wrong?"

Diana, regaining her senses, immediately responded to the voice inside the conch shell.

She remembered that Mera should have gone home to attend the funeral of the King of Atlantis, so why was she calling for help?

"Diana?"

Mera, on the other side of the conch shell, was clearly a little surprised to hear Diana's voice.

"I just ran into Beckett in London. What happened to you, Mera?"

"I..."

Mera told Diana everything about her father Nereus's plans.

"How could this be..."

"Mera, wait—" Before Diana could finish speaking, the white conch shell burst open!

Click!

Milky white fragments were scattered all over the ground.

Damn it!

Diana looked terrible. She took out her phone to call Bruce Wayne, but was stopped a second later.

"Call that incompetent human? Is this the choice you made after being tamed by this world?"

Beckett's mocking laughter immediately came into view.

"Look."

"You and I are different."

"That's what makes us different."

"I never conform to the rules and order of any world."

"I will take the initiative to color the world with my own colors."

Beckett grinned, his smile chilling.

Boom!

The sonic boom created a shockwave that instantly knocked Diana was almost within arm's reach, overturning her!

Just as she was about to fall into the River Thames with the tumbling crowd, Diana swung her Lasso of Truth around a stone pillar on the bank!

"This guy..."

After rescuing everyone ashore, Diana immediately dialed Bruce's number.

"Go back to Paradise Island, I'll handle this."

Outside the universe.

The Steppenwolf had lost an arm, was respectfully reporting the situation of the invasion to the figure on the Main Control Screen.

"That's how it is. Regarding the man who entered this universe through the Space Tunnel, I personally believe that he is as dangerous as that Kryptonian."

"I see, I understand."

"In that case, let's get started on the preparations."

"This time, we'll get those three Mother Box directly."

The figure on the screen disappeared immediately, Steppenwolf respectfully accepted the order.

In fact, if Darkseid hadn't been curious about the extraterrestrial visitor Beckett and sent him to test him, he might have already obtained one or two Mother Box.

"Then let's start with the Mother Box guarded by the Amazons."

Steppenwolf glanced at his severed arm, suppressed his anger, and gradually disappeared into the warship.

Beckett, he'll get his revenge.

The moment he collects all three Mother Box will be the moment he gets his revenge.

Paradise Island, home of the Amazons.

When Diana, filled with trepidation upon returning home, set foot on her native soil, she was greeted not with the smiles of her people, but with a brutal war.

Countless monsters flapped their wings and fought the Amazons in twos and threes!

"This is... the army of Steppenwolf?!"

"Diana!"

At a shout, Diana looked in the direction of the voice and saw her mother being chased and hacked at by a one-armed Steppenwolf!

"Steppenwolf!!!"

A fierce Flash struck in an instant, and Diana, who had completed her transformation in a flash, roared angrily. Her arms were crossed in front of her chest, and the divine force generated by the collision of her wristbands directly knocked Steppenwolf to the ground!

"It's you."

The Steppenwolf, rolling several times on the ground, recognized Diana, the woman he had just met yesterday.

"Go to hell."

Enraged, Diana drew her longsword and leaped towards the fallen Steppenwolf.

Clang!

The longsword pierced the armor, sending sparks flying!

Call out!

The golden lasso was fastened directly to Steppenwolf's calf.

"You cannot stop me."

"Unstoppable, Darkseid!"

The truthful Steppenwolf swung his axe at Diana!
