"What are you thinking about? Don't use your X-Ray Vision to spy on me whenever you feel like it in the future! I brought you home because I know a fair bit about your abilities, and there's someone..." After coming back to his senses, Robet looked at Kara speechlessly as he explained, but before he could finish, Kara interrupted him.
"Then you're not allowed to use your X-Ray Vision to look at me either!" Kara glared at Robet with a flushed face, refusing to back down.
Robet: (?o?)
"Is Clark's species' brain not working properly?" Robet, unaware that Kryptonians possessed Super Brains, had a thought flash through his mind. "They seem even less intelligent than Saiyans. Perhaps this is the price of being naturally powerful?"
"Why aren't you saying anything? Could it be..." Seeing Robet staring at her in confusion and falling silent, Kara grew suspicious as well. Her confidence gradually faded, since her belief that Robet possessed X-Ray Vision was only speculation. She had no proof yet.
"I don't have X-Ray Vision..." As Robet's words fell, Kara's expression gradually became awkward. Her face flushed red once more, and she clenched her toes together, nearly digging a villa into the ground.
"I mainly brought you home so you could meet my brother, because your abilities are very similar, and even your auras are somewhat alike..." Seeing Kara lower her flushed face and fall silent, Robet shook his head helplessly and spoke softly. Then he suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Looks like there's no need after all. He's already here. Let me introduce you. His name is Clark, and he's my brother."
As Robet's voice fell, Clark appeared in the distance. The next moment, he rushed over to stand before Robet and Kara.
That was right. The moment Roberta decided to let Clark and Kara meet, she had notified Clark. As for how she had done so, it was very simple. She had not even needed a phone—she had just called out "Clark" twice and said a few words.
As Clark's family member, Robet's voiceprint had naturally been recorded in Clark's brain. Calling out to Clark from a distance and transmitting information was no problem at all. It simply could not facilitate an actual conversation.
"Clark? No, your name isn't Clark..." However, what Robet had not expected was that Kara froze on the spot when she saw Clark. At the same time, scene after scene appeared in her mind, leaving her somewhat disoriented.
These were memories Kara had forgotten because of her amnesia. In those scenes, her parents were reluctant to part with her and gave her their final instructions...
"Kara? Kara?" Seeing Kara suddenly freeze with reddened eyes, Robet was stunned. He called her name hesitantly, unable to understand why her emotions had changed so quickly.
"Cousin..." Hearing Robet call her, Kara gradually returned to her senses. She looked at Clark, sighed faintly, and called out softly.
Clark: (_?)＞
Robet: o_o
"Sorry, what did you call me?" Clark looked at Kara hesitantly and asked.
"Your real name is Kal-El. You're a Kryptonian." Kara sighed softly and looked at Clark. "Your father was Jor-El, a respected scientist on Krypton. He predicted that Krypton was about to be destroyed, but no one accepted his warning. So, before the planet was destroyed, he and your mother, Lara, gave up their lives and placed their infant son—in other words, you—in a spacecraft to send you away."
"And I'm your cousin. My father was your uncle, Zor-El. After Krypton was destroyed, some cities were thrown into space. Because enough air still covered them, the residents of those cities were able to survive for a short time, but it was not a long-term solution..."
"To keep me alive, my parents also chose to send me to Earth. They felt that life would be too lonely for a Kryptonian, and that once I reached Earth, I could look after you. But my spacecraft was struck by a meteorite while leaving Krypton, causing me to fall into hibernation. Not only did I arrive on Earth late, I also lost part of my memories..."
"Fortunately, I've met you now. I remembered all of this and learned about my own origins. Thank you, Cousin—and thank you too, Robet!"
"My name is Kal-El?" Clark stood there in a daze. The sudden influx of information was difficult for him to accept. He had never expected to uncover the mystery of his origins just like this.
Although Robet had said before they came that he had possibly encountered one of his own people, suddenly gaining a relative and learning about his origins still left Clark at a loss.
Clark even began to wonder once again whether he had truly lost part of his memories. Why could Robet and Kara both remember what had happened before they came to Earth? Could it be because he was too old and had missed his chance to awaken those memories?
"Wait. If my father was a scientist, and Krypton's technology was advanced enough for space travel, then why didn't they come to Earth together?" Clark was pondering this when he suddenly noticed a flaw. He looked at Kara in confusion and asked, "Also, since your parents were able to send you to Earth, why didn't they come with you? Were there really so few spacecraft?"
"Looks like Clark is still a little smarter than Goku. Goku never noticed this flaw!" Hearing Clark's question, a thought flashed through Robet's mind. He felt even more strongly that Clark's experiences resembled Son Goku's. Perhaps this was what people meant by 'another version of myself'?
"A lot happened on Krypton at the time. General Zod launched a rebellion, and the entire planet fell into chaos. Your parents chose to send you away first, but when you were leaving, General Zod reached your parents. Your father was killed by Zod..." Kara sighed softly, her expression carrying a trace of sorrow as she explained.
"As for my parents, they couldn't bear to leave Krypton. They believed that returning to dust with Krypton was their destiny. But they hoped I could have a better life and a more wonderful future. By now, they should have vanished along with Krypton..."
"My father is dead. He was killed by someone, and my mother also..." Clark opened his mouth, a wave of grief surging through his heart. He remained silent for a long time.
Clark had never experienced emotions like these before. He had always wanted to uncover the truth about his origins, but when he heard that his parents had sacrificed themselves, he still found it impossible to accept. He even wished he had never learned any of this...
"Clark, you still have us, as well as Jonathan and Martha. You'll never be alone!" Robet patted his back and comforted him softly.
"Thank you, but I want to be alone for a while..." Clark forced a smile, but it looked worse than crying. "Please tell Martha and the others for me!"
