Emotional Return

"Black Death Emperor, I will kill you! I will remove the last obstacle for him!"

Kara raised her head, Black Death Sword in her hand erupted with a seven-colored energy beam. The seven-colored beam tore through the earth, leaving a smooth semi-circular mark, and shot straight toward the Black Death Emperor.

"That's a very crude and simplistic way of using it; you don't understand the power of the Emotional Spectrum at all."

The Black Death Emperor scoffed, his scythe gleaming with Ultimate Black Light, also unleashing a chilling death energy.

The two collided!

A powerful Havok and energy aftershocks were released from the collision of the two beams, completely engulfing the battlefield. The surrounding Black Lantern Corps were also turned into dust and disappeared in the Havok.

But after only a brief stalemate, the Black Death Emperor's death ray, with its immense power, gradually overwhelmed Kara's seven-colored beam of light.

Seeing the critical situation, the others rushed to Kara's side to help without hesitation.

The rings on their hands emitted bursts of light of various colors, which intertwined in an attempt to enhance Kara's power.

Kara gritted her teeth and persevered. One after another, phantom figures appeared behind Kara, staring at the Black Death Emperor with ferocious expressions, their hands clasped together on the Black Death Sword.

These are the souls of the Black Lantern Corps that Kara destroyed, absorbed by the Black Death Sword, and now being used as fuel.

[Why must I die? I'm so young, I don't want to die!] Fear.

[I hate it! I hate it so much! My family was killed right in front of me!] Outrage.

Humanity will prevail, and I will contribute my strength if needed.

[James, I can be with you again, I love you.]

Me too, Bill.] Love.

I hope this crisis ends soon, and I hope for world peace.

[These Black Lantern Corps were once lives too.] Pity.

[My rings, all these rings, this sword are mine, you are not allowed to touch them!] Greed.

A beam of light, blending countless colors, appeared with a faint white light at its very center. But the instant the white light appeared, the seven-colored beam of light erupted again, sweeping forward and rushing towards the Black Death Emperor.

"Interesting!"

The Black Death Emperor threw away his scythe, opened his arms, and gave up resisting. In the seven-colored beam of light, the Black Death Emperor's body was directly vaporized.

The seven-colored beam of light disappeared, and everyone collapsed to the ground, exhausted.

Did we win?

The Flash was somewhat confused.

"I think so?"

"But why can these Black Lantern Corps still move?"

The Black Lantern Corps in the sky continued to appear in an endless stream.

A mummified corpse picked up a fallen scythe, its surface gleaming with a black light.

[Black Death Emperor.]

[Resurrection!]

"I am the embodiment of death; tell me how you will kill death!"

The Black Death Emperor floated into the air, raising his scythe high. A black sphere of light expanded continuously above the scythe, growing to hundreds of meters in size in the blink of an eye, like a giant black sun, enough to wipe out the exhausted superheroes below.

"Your existence is but a fleeting illusion, and I will grant you Eternity peace—a return to death!"

Everyone looked at the sky in despair.

The two the Flash wanted to move people to a new location and were about to reboot.

Kara looked at Kino in the distance with disappointment and self-reproach, feeling sorry that she hadn't been able to help again.

The deaths caused by the Black Death Emperor are unique because his Black Lantern power directly manipulates the essence of death, binding the souls of the slain into puppets.

The White Lantern represents the ultimate power of the life Spectrum, capable of truly resurrecting the dead and purifying the influence of the black light.

Kino only dared to wear the Black Lantern Ring because only Carl El had died, but Kara El had already died once, and if she died again, it would be Kara El.

However, Kino, in his emotionless state, has only one goal in mind: to obtain the Anti-Life Equation. Everything else must give way to this goal.

In his view, even if Kara died, he could travel through time to resurrect her.

The outer shell of the Black Lantern Furnace was about to melt, and Kino should have been most concerned about the Anti-Monitor inside, but Kino couldn't help but glance at Kara, who was looking at him.

Several black spots covered his face, and he began to exude an aura of death.

It's okay, it's just dying once.

It's alright, I can revive her.

It's okay, I'll make it up to her after I'm resurrected.

It's fine...

[No, that won't work. Even if you could be resurrected, you'd definitely regret it if you lost your emotions. Besides, you've forgotten, you're never truly alone.]

Venom's voice echoed softly in my heart.

In an instant, those stripped emotions surged back into Kino's heart like a flood bursting its banks.

"Nothing's wrong, my foot!"

"Black Death Emperor, I'll fucking kill you!!!"

Kino's angry curses echoed throughout the battlefield.

Kino grabbed the Black Lantern Furnace in front of him and, as if lifting a small mountain, slammed it down on the Black Death Emperor.

The Black Lantern Furnace flew through the air like a cannonball, smashing the Black Lantern Corps in its path into pieces.

Facing the black Energy Orb about to erupt in the sky, Kino calmly raised his finger.

"Smack!"

With that crisp the Snap, the black Energy Orb was instantly wiped away as if by an invisible hand, disappearing without a trace.

The aura of death emanating from the superheroes vanished.

But it also meant that Kino's disguise had vanished, his stopped heart began to beat strongly again, and the glacial indifference in his eyes melted instantly, transforming back into a warm and gentle river.

The memories of Superman, Wonder Woman, Doctor Fate, and others have all returned.

"Kino?"

It's you.

"You saved me again."

"My lord."

The others looked at Superman and the Justice League members with confusion.

Is this guy an enemy or one of our own?

"It really was you. I'm quite impressed that you managed to escape from God's clutches."

The Black Death Emperor caught the Black Lantern Furnace that had been thrown back at him steadily, his gaze fixed on Kino, who had pretended to disappear. His words carried a hint of admiration, but more so arrogance and provocation.

"Knowing it's me, why aren't you running? What are you waiting for? To die?"

"Death? How can death be repeated?"

Although the Black Death Emperor knew he was no match for Kino in a one-on-one fight, he relied on his status as the embodiment of death and possessed an innate arrogance and fearlessness, so he was not afraid of Kino's threats.

Click, click!

The Black Lantern Furnace suddenly exploded on its own without warning, emitting a deafening roar.

Amidst a shower of sparks and flying debris, Venom, carrying the now- Black Lantern Corps -out Anti-Monitor, flew out of the explosion's light.

"I'm sorry, Kino, I've become a burden to you again!"

Kara couldn't help but shed tears as she was rescued time and time again.

"It's okay, it's okay, don't cry."

The Anti-Monitor he had always wanted was right at his feet, but Kino was only concerned with comforting the crying Kara in front of him.

Before, when I had no feelings for her, I didn't feel anything. But now that my feelings have returned, the thought of Kara dying makes my heart ache.
