He Loves Me-That Is the One Thing I Believe Without a Doubt

"Barry, do you know this guy?"

Green Lantern looked warily at Kino, who was standing in the middle of them. This guy was strong.

"Don't you remember? He's Kino, who helped us defeat Darkseid. The Lasso of Truth was given to him by you, Diana, and Superman's Compass too."

The Flash shouted, trying to awaken the sealed memories in everyone.

With the Flash's reminder, everyone recalled the Darkseid invasion when they won the war inexplicably, as if someone had indeed been helping them.

Just as I was about to vaguely recall something, these memories were quickly sealed away again.

"Okay, Barry, even if what you're saying is true, he doesn't seem like he's here to help us right now."

Superman looked at Kino with a solemn expression. Although he had forgotten the specifics of the Family Seeking Compass, he clearly remembered that the compass had indeed been of great help to him.

In peacetime, he would choose to believe in the Flash and consider Kino a friend.

But at this moment, the world is facing an unprecedented crisis, and the other party is on the enemy's side. He must not be complacent or gullible in the slightest.

The Flash was speechless. The Kino in front of him was indeed different from the one before, and why would such a strong Brother Kino become Black Lantern Corps and become a subordinate of the Black Death Emperor?

Suddenly remembering something, his eyes lit up, and he called out to Kino, "Is Sister Venom here?"

There was no response whatsoever.

Kino ignored these guys, disappeared from the spot, and appeared in front of the Black Lantern Furnace hanging in the sky the next moment.

He raised his fist, ready to smash the Black Lantern Furnace.

Click click click!

Kino's joints made a series of crisp cracking sounds. He remained in a punching stance, but suddenly seemed to be frozen in mid-air.

Countless black threads emerged from the ring on his hand, wrapping around his entire body.

"I never imagined that besides me, there were others who had their eyes on the Spirit of Existence, and they were almost used by you."

The Black Death Emperor flew to Kino's side.

"But as long as they are dead, they are all under my control. I ordered that all those who gained life be killed."

As the Black Death Emperor gave the order, Kino's eyes became empty and lifeless, like a puppet without a soul.

However, just when everyone thought that Kino had been completely controlled, the next moment, Kino suddenly clenched his fist and punched the Black Death Emperor's head.

The Black Death Emperor only took a few steps back, without sustaining any injuries.

The Black Death Emperor is an abstract entity at the primordial level of the universe. Its existence is not limited by the laws of physics, and conventional attacks are unlikely to cause it substantial damage.

Ultraman alone wouldn't be enough to defeat him.

"Carl Ayr, why can't I control you? You're already dead."

The Black Death Emperor's voice held a hint of confusion. "It has a soul, it's dead, it wears the Black Lantern Ring, why can't I control it?"

"Because he doesn't belong to you!"

A dazzling, multicolored beam of light, like a giant meteor falling from the sky, slammed into the Black Death Emperor with a devastating force.

The light shone brightly, illuminating the entire dark sky and stinging everyone's eyes.

Soon, the light gradually dissipated, and wisps of green smoke rose from the Black Death Emperor's body.

The combined light from the Lantern Ring damaged the Black Death Emperor.

"Too weak. Your anger isn't strong enough, your compassion isn't pure enough, and your hope is wavering. Only will and love are enough."

The Black Death Emperor slowly raised his head, his icy gaze fixed on the Valkyrie in the air.

"Kara Aier, it's time for you to return to the embrace of death."

The Black Death Emperor's voice seemed to possess an irresistible magic. Kara felt a chill run down her spine, and images of her own gruesome deaths flashed through her mind, as if the shadow of death had completely enveloped her.

"Kara, stall for time."

Kino's voice brought Kara back to her senses. Looking at his cold eyes, she gripped the hilt of her sword.

"Good."

Kara responded without hesitation, her voice, though soft, was filled with unwavering determination.

Having said that, she raised the Black Death Sword high and swooped down towards the Black Death Emperor like a golden meteor.

The Green Lantern Ring and Violet Lantern Ring on the sword seemed to sense their master's determination, lighting up with a powerful and dazzling light that illuminated the surrounding dark sky.

Seeing that Kino was doing everything he could to destroy the Black Lantern Furnace, the others temporarily stopped worrying about whether they were friend or foe and instead stood guard around Kino, desperately trying to stop the Black Lantern Corps from getting close.

Some of the Lanterns also went to help Kara fight the Black Death Emperor. They didn't care what the other party's purpose was; they only knew that the other party had saved them in their most critical moment.

With Kara and many Lanterns blocking their way, the Black Death Emperor's progress was indeed halted for a time.

The Black Death Emperor waved his arm, and black energy surged out like a tide, blasting the surrounding Lanterns away. Their skin turned gray, and some developed black patches.

Only Kara, by shielding herself with the Black Death Sword, absorbed a portion of its power, and was temporarily unharmed thanks to her Nth Metal armor.

"Kara Ayr, do you want to know your place in his heart?"

Kara did not answer. She raised the Black Death Sword high, the energy of the multicolored Lantern Ring surged, and she swung the sword fiercely, sending out a multicolored blade of light.

The Black Death Emperor merely raised his scythe with disdain and lightly blocked the attack. The multicolored blade of light collided and eroded the chilling death energy instantly, eventually turning into a wisp of smoke and disappearing without a trace.

"I can feel the intense love in your heart, but the person you love doesn't love you. He has no emotions; he's just a corpse. Yet you're risking your life for him. Don't you find that ridiculous?"

The Black Death Emperor's voice was like a viper's hiss, each word piercing Kara's heart.

"I can feel your anger, it's anger toward humanity. Your love is empty. You don't need to stand against me at all."

Become my messenger, return to the embrace of death. Death is not as terrifying as you imagine; death is a kind of peace, absolute peace.

The power of the Black Death Emperor slowly enveloped the surroundings, the light gradually dimmed, and Kara's figure slowly disappeared into the darkness.

"Shut up!"

A delicate shout rang out, and the multicolored light blades erupted once more, tearing apart the surrounding darkness, including the Black Lantern Ring that had appeared out of nowhere in front of them.

"He loves me, that's the only thing I'm absolutely certain of."

Kara gripped the Black Death Sword tightly in her hand.

"Really? But he didn't even glance at you when you were dying," the Black Death Emperor said.

Kara subconsciously raised her hand and glanced at her exposed palm. Her once fair and tender hand had turned grayish-white and was covered with black the Spot.

"Although something within you has delayed your death, death is inevitable; the end of every life is death."

"I never thought I could live forever. I just wanted to be able to help, even if it was just a little bit."

Kara raised the Black Death Sword and aimed it at the Black Death Emperor, but her gaze fell on the two remaining rings that shone without any light.

"I want greater power, help me, Black Death Sword."

The sword trembled slightly, and the Yellow Lantern Ring and Orange Lantern Ring also lit up.
