What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 862 The Death Girl, Time to Get to Work!
The fate of those from the Endless Family has no room for helplessness.

But if he had any, he would definitely feel helpless at this moment.

His garden has been deserted for years, and he is bound to it by chains, carrying heavy pages of books.

Ordinary people think he is the rule-maker, but he is merely a recorder, unable even to know what happens before it occurs...

To share what you have recorded with others.

“I was supposed to fulfill my duties after everything was over, but in fact…”

Fate bowed his head, and he saw on the page what the Lady of Death had said to him. He looked up, and the events described on the page were unfolding before his very eyes.

"Alas, mortals always add many complicated changes to my duties."

Fate looked down at its Book of Fate, and the Fate itself depicted in the book also looked down in unison.

He turned the page of the book he was holding, saw a drawing of himself on the next page, and spoke in unison with his own image:
"Okay, what exactly are these complicated changes?"

The Lady of Death said, "As is customary, I should be taking on a whole bunch of characters who are all due to die. Based on my deduction, their time to die is around now."

It is worth noting that the death was described as "speculation".

However, the Second Sister of Death does not determine the death date of any creature.

A living being's death is determined by itself, but now, a new and unprecedented situation has arisen before death:

“Those creatures chose death, but they did not die.”

This statement sounds absurd and can be equated with a logical paradox such as "I ate a peach, but I didn't eat it."

The Second Sister of Death said, "I hate this kind of time-travel that can freeze and reform at any moment... It's caused me so much trouble. So now, enlighten me, fate. What's the cause and effect behind this bizarre logical paradox? Should I rush over there, or is it pointless to make a wasted trip?"

Death said, "I've made so many wasted trips since the Earth 15 incident, I'm really getting angry."

As he talked about death, his face turned as red as a steamed bun.

Despite saying things like "I'm angry," Death didn't actually show any anger.

Fate seemed to waver for a moment, and the death before him was still that dignified and serene young girl.

The Endless Family is ultimately a concrete manifestation of a concept. They do not possess human emotions, even if they pretend to. Even if mortals perceive them as gentle, cruel, indifferent, or absurd, these are merely superficial understandings of them.

There are hundreds of different views on death, and each view is a facet of death.

If you think of death as a young girl who gets annoyed when she makes a wasted trip to work, then death is that kind of person, at least in front of you, or she can become that kind of person when she wants to.

They are conceptual gods that can only be understood intuitively and cannot be explained in words; they cannot be speculated about using conventional logic of thinking about living beings.

“All the dead creatures chose to die voluntarily; they were not forced or killed by any other creature.”

Fate said, "As long as they do not change their absolute will to choose death, your work will still be there, and you will not have made a wasted trip."

"So that's the case, then I'm relieved."

Death nodded, shook her little black parasol, and disappeared behind the mist of the Garden of Destiny.

Death is a thick fog, a peaceful slumber, everything you can imagine. Fate shook its head, sat back down in its seat, and turned the page it had been sitting on.

"Are you kidding..."

Barbatos found it somewhat unbelievable.

Although he pretended to be very weak, he had actually recovered quite well, at least better than Batman Dragon and the World Maker had expected. However, Barbatos did not reveal his condition, knowing that his current state of serious injury was the best disguise.

He hid within the World Forge, secretly observing the situation of the hypertime flow, especially after witnessing the several timeline reboots. He was, after all, a servant god of the World Forger, and had even turned against the corpse that the other party had been devouring for so many years. A mere hypertime flow reboot could not possibly affect Barbatos.

In other words, the first Lantern was too old to travel through time again, otherwise he wouldn't have been led by the nose by Batman Dragon.

Barbatos… how to put it? Everyone who was defeated, or nearly defeated, by Batman Dragon always had a strange sense of confidence in him. People always tend to exaggerate their enemies—

Even gods are no exception, because if they don't exaggerate their enemies, they'll look like trash. But now, Batman Dragon's reaction is something Barbatos can't accept.

"He must be plotting something."

That's what Barbatos thought.

"He must be plotting something."

Coincidentally, the anti-surveillance advocates think the same way.

He wasn't quite convinced yet.

“Alright, kill one and show me.” The Anti-Monitor said, “Don’t worry, you only need to kill one, not too many. If you can’t bring yourself to kill a hero, I can find you a notorious villain to take care of. For example…” He glanced at it and then said, “For example, you should know the Owlman from Earth 3 before the Crisis on Infinite Earths. After the universe reboot, his new counterpart is the Night Owl.”

He is definitely a villain, and according to normal history, he should have died in the infinite Earth crisis I caused and been devoured by my antimatter cosmic energy, so his life or death will not affect the stability of the hypertime flow.

"Killing just one is enough. The World Forger wants to break your superhero persona. Once that persona is broken, it can use your non-hero status to deal with you, trying to strip you of the DC multiverse's support. But this is the only way we can get past the obstacles it has set up. Besides, even without the multiverse's help, you still have me, don't you?"

Very few things can make a sixth-dimensional being nervous. The Anti-Monitor admits he is slightly nervous.

This feeling is like the mysterious hand-rubbing you do when you're drawing cards.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say, but I have one request: I want to see the first Lantern Man again."

“One last time, and then I’ll make my move,” the Counter-Monitor heard Batman say.

“No matter what, the World Maker, the entire DC multiverse, and everyone else are watching you. You can’t fake it, and you can’t fake it. People will die.”

"That's what the anti-surveillance advocate said."

“I know,” Batman Dragon replied.
