"Gray, you can actually think about it carefully. Batman's path is difficult to walk. Do you need me to tell you the story of Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Fuck Man to give you a choice?"

"No need Marcus, I've made up my mind."

"Then have you ever thought about how to become Batman?" I tried to use the difficulty to remind him that this is a road that will end if you don't.

I don't want Gray to actually go out and do some heroic deeds, and then be beaten to death that day.

But Gray said with confidence: "I already have his fighting skills and will, I just need the same magical equipment as him."

"Martial arts?" I asked.

"I have learned various fighting techniques since I was a child."

Gray ran to a big stone on the side of the road, stretched out his hand to form a hand knife, and then quickly chopped it down, splitting the stone into two halves.

Then he walked to a maple tree and easily climbed to the top of the four or five-meter-high tree crown.

"How about it? Is this okay?"

…………

The trouble was huge. I thought he was just acting on a whim, but I didn't expect that he really had the foundation.

No wonder Sebala beat him so hard that he was still alive and kicking.

But if he can't lose his confidence now, Sebala will be in trouble when he comes back in two days.

"Huh, you're far from class enough!"

I pretended to be disdainful and said to him.

"Let's make a bet. If you can beat me in three projects, I will fully support you to become the successor of Batman. If you lose, you will be my butler, just like Alfred.

, specifically responsible for logistics.”

It makes sense to win Bruce Wayne and lose Alfred.

"What project? If you want to compete in farming or mowing grass, I won't compete with you."

Gray had a look of disgust on his face, as if I was deliberately trying to trick him.

Do you really think of me as an ordinary farmer?

"We compete in strength, shooting, and equipment manufacturing. What do you think?"

I said to him seriously.

"Batman possesses peak human strength and can pay criminals with one blow."

"At the same time, he can use long-range props including bat signs and rope guns."

"At the same time, he is also a first-class equipment manufacturer and can accurately upgrade his armor for different enemies."

"So how about we compare these three items? If you can't even beat me in these three items, then you'd better give up as soon as possible."

The boy's competitive spirit was suddenly aroused, and Gray looked at me confidently.

"Then let's compete. I won't lose!"

"The first item is strength."

We arrived at the pasture, where there were rocks of various sizes, which were very suitable as our testing site.

"Would you choose one?" I glanced at Gray. With his size, he should be able to lift an eighty or ninety kilogram stone over his head. In front of my strength, which is close to the peak of human beings, he should...

"Let's do this."

Gray walked briskly to a stone that could completely block his body. He held the two corners with his hands and exerted force on the stone.

I haven't realized it yet. After all, this rock seems to weigh at least half a ton. Gray is eager to win. This is simply impossible...

"It's your turn."

Gray gritted his teeth and made two deep footprints in the ground with his feet, but he really carried the half-ton stone like this.

"Bang!" After holding it up for five seconds, he threw the stone hard, patted the powder on his hands and said to me.

“…”

What's going on! Is this still human?

I don’t think Batman is suitable for you!

Let me tell you a story about the Hulk!

"Hmph, you win this round."

I quickly covered up the surprise on my face and acted like a master.

"..." This time Gray silently questioned me with a look of disdain.

Young man, you are too naive, I will not feel embarrassed!

"For the next test shooting, I have a bow here, the most primitive kind. We will shoot at this target five meters away."

I took out the short bow used for yesterday's training from the house and thrust five featherless arrows into his hand.

"It is very difficult for such people to control the shooting accuracy of bows and arrows. The shaking of hands, the strength of the wind, and the direction of deflection will seriously interfere with it. You must aim carefully before shooting..."

I stood in the distance and drew a sign on the tree trunk to direct him to shoot here.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gray had already raised the bow accurately. It would not be a problem to draw the bow with his half-ton arm strength, but archery is not as simple as strength. It requires sufficient experience...

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Bang!"

I only saw Gray nocking the arrow and letting it go like a fluid movement, and then the next featherless arrow was placed again. Five arrows flew out like a volley of beads, and hit the tree trunk one after another like meteors chasing the moon.

The first four arrows firmly occupied the center of the target. Only the last arrow was disturbed by these dense bows and arrows, deviated from its position, and flew out of the pasture with great vigor from my side.

“…”

"I'm sorry, Marcus, I didn't mean to target you." Gray said a little apologetically.

I know you didn't mean it, otherwise I would have been a target long ago.

"I am coming."

Gray stood aside and handed the bow and arrow into my hand, ready to watch my performance.

I stood five meters away, focused my eyes on the tree trunk, and then naturally issued the attack order.

"Choose attack target: tree trunk."

"Choose attack target: tree trunk."

"Choose attack target: tree trunk."

"Choose attack target: tree trunk."

"Choose attack target: tree trunk."

"Judgment successful*5"

The order was carried out quickly.

Gray only saw that my whole body seemed to relax, and there was no unnecessary shaking in the joints of my body, and I released five arrows easily.

If anything is different, it should be that my shooting process is a bit stiff, as if several separate actions were mechanically combined together and a fast-forward effect was applied.

The result surprised him even more.

He thought this man was just a tough talker, but he didn't expect that he was really accomplished in archery.

The five arrows were neatly arranged and embedded in the tree trunk, and the distance between them seemed to have been measured with a ruler, without any extra gaps.

"All right! Marcus!"

Gray announced the results cheerfully.

Then I walked over with satisfaction.

"You see, although you are slightly better in terms of strength, I am experienced in shooting."

I quickly started to crack down on him. If I didn't teach him a lesson, he would really go on a heroic spree.

But Gray didn't seem to hear him and said to me seriously.

"Marcus, the last project to test equipment manufacturing may not be fair to you. Although my grandfather didn't teach me how to make weapons, I still have some experience growing up in a forge house."

"Do you want to change projects?"

(\#-_-)\┯━┯.

This young man still has some conscience and actually offered to change projects, but...

"No need, I also have some experience in forging. This way we can compete fairly."
Chapter completed!
