Talia, the only daughter of the Master Ninja, is the current interim leader of the League of Assassins.This woman with a perfect appearance is undoubtedly a natural stunner.But beneath that beautiful exterior lies a soul full of ambition and longing.Although Merlin and Talia did not have much contact, he could sense that Talia's desire for power and identity was very stubborn, even to the point of pathology.This was evident when Merlin and Talia first met.In order to gain the approval of her father, the Master Assassin, Talia, who was still very young at the time and was considered a rookie assassin, dared to risk being killed and sneaked into the British Ministry of Magic to steal things.And when she and Merlin entered the attacked Nandarbat before, in the face of the ninja master who was attacked by the death knell, Talia also indifferently weighed the benefits and losses, and then asked Merlin to come forward to help.In other words, if it was more in Talia's interest to let the ninja master be killed by Knell at the time, this beauty would probably have prevented Merlin from intervening in that battle.In this case, it would be a compliment to say that she was scheming.And in Merlin's heart, Talia's perfectly seductive appearance has been linked to the word "cold-blooded".However, this woman has a truly "selfless" feeling for her son.This is also confirmed.Previously, when he was in Switzerland, Merlin did not know the identity of Damien, and he used the child to threaten Talia, and the kind of care and protection that this woman showed for her son could not be faked.Damian is her weakness, there's no doubt about that.Therefore, when Merlin proposed to let Talia send Damien to Gotham, Talia's expression immediately became cold.It's like a deadly cold wind blowing in a snowy mountain."
You're too lenient, Merlin."
Talia said unceremoniously: "What is the future of Damian, that's a matter of our mother and son, and it has nothing to do with you!"
It has nothing to do with Bruce!
He is my son, my son alone!
”"I didn't mean to snatch him."
Merlin didn't refute Talia's unceremonious accusations, instead, Merlin explained earnestly: "You have been entrusted by the Master Ninja with the task of reassembling the base camp of the Assassin League in Interlaken, even if there are other commanders to assist you, the process will be long...
I've spoken to Master Ninja and I know the fact that the League of Assassins is now in decline, and do you really have the energy to take care of your children while you're supporting the revival of the League of Assassins?
”Talia subconsciously wanted to refute, but in the face of Merlin's explanation, she was also a little dazed for a while.Indeed, it is not easy for an organization like the League of Assassins to migrate, and it is definitely not something that can be accomplished overnight.She also did not have the unquestionable prestige of her father, and it was unknown whether she would be able to take over the Assassin League's branches around the world after his death.If she doesn't handle it well, causing another internal split in the Order, the road to revival of the Assassin League under her leadership in Talia's mind will only become more difficult.Merlin saw the tangle in Talia's eyes, and he quietly added fuel to the fire."
Besides, you haven't forgotten the death knell, have you?"
Merlin said: "He was just repulsed, he was rescued by his fox friends, he didn't die...
Take his heart to Lars.
Al.
Gul's hatred, if he decides to strike again, will you be able to protect your young son from such an all-out assault as Deathknell against Nandarbat?
”"I'm really not sure.""
But do you think Bruce can protect Damian?"
”"Of course he can."
Merlin said without doubt, "I have never doubted Bruce's determination to protect his son, and most importantly, don't forget, Bruce defeated your father."
Although there is an element of luck in it, it is undeniable that Bruce is far stronger than you think. ”"And Damian's age is a critical period for character growth...
The kid had been poisoned enough by the ninja master's twisted mind, and it was time for him to learn from his more heroic father. ”"Be careful what you say!"
Talia warned dissatisfiedly: "You are questioning my father, in Nandarbat, this is a very dangerous behavior. ”"But you should also know that I'm right."
Merlin whispered, "You also have a grudge against some of your father's ways of doing things, don't you?"
Talia, we've crossed paths for a long time, and at least in this regard, you can't hide it from me. ”"I—" Talia finally did not refute, she was silent, and led Merlin to Damian's room, she handed Merlin the key, and as she was escorted away by the samurai, Talia whispered, "As for your suggestion, I will consider it." ”"Well, trust me."
Merlin said: "Children are born to grow up with their fathers, and if it is really for the good of Damian, you should give him a chance to choose freely...
He's been with you for 7 years, and it's time for him to spend some time with his father.Perhaps, Bruce will surprise you?
”"What kind of ecstasy soup did Bruce pour you?"
Talia snorted dissatisfiedly: "From the time you entered Nandarbat until now, you have been speaking for him!"
Even because he rejected me, Merlin, do you like Bruce?
”"Huh."
Merlin smiled at Talia's malicious speculation and said, "On this point, you can rest assured that I will never rob you of a man."
Truth be told, if I'm going to rob it, Thalia, there's no way you're going to have a chance. ”"Shut up."
Talia said hatefully, and quickly left the heavily guarded place.She's busy, and she has too much time to deal with.Merlin stepped forward, and under the silent gaze of the samurai who were in charge of guarding the young master, he reached out and unlocked the door in front of him, then pushed it open, and walked into the room where the fireplace was burning and it seemed warm.Boy Damien, sitting alone in front of the fire in the fireplace.He didn't have the indifference of his age in Switzerland, and now, under the blow of the death of the loved one he admired the most, he was more like a lonely, helpless, 7-year-old child.Damien wipes a black Hidden Blade in his hand, a relic that the Master Ninja gave him before he died.Merlin didn't immediately step forward to disturb the child's thoughts about his loved ones.He knew that now Damien needed comfort not from others, but from the confusion of his heart.When it comes to bringing up children, Merlin is no stranger.He has lived with little Eric since he was 21 years old, and then Charlie, Peter Jr., Ava Jr., and Matt, who has only recently joined his family.He was not short of experience in communicating with children, so Merlin leaned quietly against the wall of the warm room, and it was not until several minutes later, when Damien had finished wiping his Hidden Blade, that he spoke: "You should know that even if you polish that sword again, your grandfather will not be resurrected by it, right?"
”"Fuck off."
Damian said in a gloomy tone, "I'm not in the mood to quarrel with you. ”"What a coincidence."
Merlin wasn't angry, on the contrary, he smiled and said, "I'm not in the mood to come and see a little kid pretending to be deep, if it weren't for your mother asking me to take care of me, I wouldn't even look at you more...
Damien.
Wayne, watching his heroic idol die quietly and quietly in the same weakness as ordinary people, this must be a very painful thing, right?
”"Bang" Damien kicked over the chair next to him, he turned his head and looked viciously at Merlin who was holding his arms, and he said, "Do you want to fight?"
Sorcerer!
”"No, I don't want to."
Merlin looked Damien up and down, and he said seriously, "I mean, I do want to move my muscles, but I don't want to bully a little guy who is about to cry."
Look at the tear stains on your face, when you rested last night, you secretly hid in the quilt and cried, right?
Bub. ”"Shut up!"
Merlin's malicious words ignited the anger in the heart of Damien, who was now in a bad mood, almost instantly.The seven-year-old screamed, clenched his fists with a nimble and ferocious movement that was not at all appropriate for his age, and slammed it into Merlin's face.But he's just a kid after all.Although he has the strength and speed of an adult, and has been trained by his grandfather as a war machine since he was a child, in the face of a secret agent who has long been experienced in a hundred battles, Damien's force value is indeed slightly worse."
Bang" the fist he smashed down, and Merlin's outstretched hand was easily clasped in his hand.Merlin sneered, and with a flip of his wrist, Damian was thrown back into place.Merlin patted the dust that didn't exist on his body, he hooked his fingers, and the black Hidden Blade that was put aside by Damian fell into Merlin's hands under the impetus of an invisible force.He tossed the ninja master's relics up and down, and in Damien's eyes as if he wanted to kill, Merlin said in a calm tone, "Damian, do you know what the Hidden Blade means to assassins?

”Damien glared at Merlin, who did not answer.Merlin also looked at the child in front of him, he sighed, he put the black Hidden Blade into his bottomless pocket, he said, "Master Ninja is really, such a dangerous thing, just give it to the child as a toy...
I'll keep it for you first, Damian, and I'll give it back to you when you deserve it. ”Oh, this sentence is vicious.Merlin's meaning is clear: Boy, you don't deserve it now!
This makes the young master Damian, who has been cultivated as the pride of the sky since he was a child, how can the arrogant young master Damian endure it?
Coupled with Merlin's disrespect for his grandfather in his words, this completely ignited the last trace of calm in Damien's heart."
AhhDie!
”Damien screamed, like an angry wolf cub, and as soon as he pulled out his hand as an ornament, the one-handed blade that had been placed by the fireplace, and in anger, he held the blade and stabbed it straight at Merlin without sparing.And just before the blade touched Merlin's body, Damien saw Merlin stretch out his fingers, and between them, accompanied by a snap of fingers, a dazzling blue light completely engulfed Merlin and its figure."
Poof" The next moment, at the moment when the light of the shapeshifting spell dissipated, Damien's whole person fell from a height of 3 meters in a freefall posture, and the whole person fell into the cold and thick snow.He hurriedly slapped the snowflakes on his body, climbed up from the snow pit with the vigor of a warrior, and then held his sword vigilantly and looked around.It was a white world, and the goose feather snow fell from the gray sky, and beneath his feet was a cold snow several inches thick.Damian exhaled a chill, and he felt a chill in his training clothes, and he shivered, and when he turned around, he saw the vague outline of Nandarbat beneath the cliff.Damn Merlin, teleported him to the peak of a snow-capped mountain that was cold enough to freeze to death in ten minutes."
Huh" Merlin's figure also appeared in this cold ice and snow at this moment.But compared to Damian's embarrassment, Merlin, who was wearing a gray casual suit and the corners of his clothes were still gently fluttering in the cold wind, looked much more elegant.With his right hand in his trouser pocket and his left hand hanging by his side, he stood on the snow five meters away from Damien, leisurely like a lazy young man strolling through the streets of New York.The moment he saw Merlin appear, Damien let out another slightly childish roar, and he ran all over the snow, swinging his knife, and slashing at Merlin in the falling snow of goose feathers.The "bell" accompanied Merlin's left arm raised, and a silver blade protruding from his cuff pinched out of the blade, pinpointing the sharp blade that Damien had chopped off.Merlin's wrist flicked outwards between the staggered throbs of his weapons, and with the force of that force, Damien spun twice in the air before falling back into the snow.Merlin crossed his left hand in front of him, the edge of the Holy Silver Hidden Blade shining in the snow, he looked at Damien's surprised face, and in the ice and snow where there were only the two of them, he whispered, "Don't look at me using magic...
But in a sense, I'm barely a Master Assassin. ”"I know the death of a Master Ninja is painful for you, but the death of a legendary man should not be remembered in mourning, you should remember it with more powerful actions.Damien, your grandfather's spirit in the sky is watching you. ”"He always thought you were a natural warrior and not a cowardly child.""
So...""
Give me a show, be decent!"
