Arriving in the DC Universe, Ethan immediately located Diana's whereabouts and appeared near her the next second.
"What a coincidence. I arrived just in time."
Ethan's spatial movement would not be noticed as unusual by ordinary people. Even if he moved to a bustling street and someone happened to see him suddenly appear, in the eyes of these ordinary people, it would simply seem like he had been there all along.
Thus, his appearance did not cause any surprise. He could comfortably stand nearby with his arms crossed, smiling as he watched a handsome man around forty years old, dressed in high-end custom casual wear, trying his best to invite Diana to dinner.
Just as he was about to enjoy the show for a bit, Diana had already noticed Ethan and then refused the "older handsome man" with a reason that left him quite helpless.
"My boyfriend is here. Please excuse me!"
The middle-aged handsome man was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and saw Ethan standing behind him.
"Why did you suddenly come over?"
"My work is finished, so of course I came to find you!"
Completely ignoring the middle-aged handsome man, Ethan wrapped his arm around Diana as he spoke and started passionately kissing her right there on the bustling street.
He was not deliberately showing off their affection in front of this person. For him, he was genuinely about to burst. If the location had not been so unsuitable, he would have gone all the way right from the start.
After kissing for a full three minutes, Ethan finally let go of Diana. He turned his head and saw the middle-aged handsome man still standing there.
This guy actually stood there and watched for a full three minutes? Most people would have left by now, right?
"Hello!"
The middle-aged handsome man was very well-mannered, even greeting Ethan.
"My name is Henry, Henry Roland."
"Ethan."
He introduced himself simply and said no more. What was there for Ethan to say to such an ordinary person? They could not even be friends, not to mention the fact that this guy was trying to steal his girlfriend.
"Hehe, young man, there's no need for that."
Henry Roland seemed to be trying his best to show off his demeanor, looking like a victorious nobleman, while the young man in front of him was already his defeated opponent.
Ethan could not be bothered to pay attention to him. He simply put his arm around Diana's waist and walked away. As for who this Henry Roland guy was, he did not care in the slightest.
Henry watched the two of them walk away and did not get angry. Instead, he also turned and left. He should be glad he did not continue to pester them. Otherwise, Ethan would not have been so polite.
"That Henry Roland is said to be a descendant of French nobility. He's been trying to ask me out recently."
"Oh!"
"Someone arrived quite timely. Otherwise, I would have seriously considered accepting his invitation."
"..."
The feeling around his waist reminded him that it was better not to try to explain. As for the many troubles he had encountered during this time, it was not suitable to talk about them now. What he needed to do now was obediently accompany Diana shopping and eating, then go back to Diana's place to settle all the outstanding debts.
After going through the whole process, the two of them changed into fresh, clean T-shirts and then sat on loungers on the balcony, enjoying the breeze, drinking beverages, and chatting.
At this point, Ethan roughly recounted his experiences during this period. Only then did Diana realize that he had encountered trouble in other worlds and had been "trapped" in that world for who knew how many years.
If he had not mastered the rules of time, he would not have been able to choose a specific point in time and return to this period.
After Diana finished listening to Ethan talk about his experiences, she suddenly crossed her legs, sat up straight in the chair, and kept scrutinizing Ethan up and down.
"What's wrong? Didn't get enough of looking just now?"
"No, I just want to know one thing."
"What?"
"You stayed in that world for so long. How many girls did you mess with?"
Ethan, who was eating fruit, almost choked. He coughed violently a few times before recovering.
"What did you say?"
"You're already a powerful divine body, levels higher than me, and you can still choke on an apple?"
Diana gave Ethan a look that said, "Your acting is really bad, I've seen through everything," stared at him for a moment, and then stopped dwelling on the topic.
"You said you've completed the creation of the God Kingdom world and want the entire Amazon tribe to move in?"
"Yes!"
Besides having private time with Diana, this was also an important reason for Ethan to come to this world.
"And Atlantis?"
"Atlantis... I doubt the entire tribe will migrate and leave this world!"
Ethan felt that Atlanna would not be able to persuade the Atlanteans to leave Earth's oceans. It was likely that only Atlanna and a few close followers would go with Logan.
That was fine. Anyway, he had given them the option. Whether they agreed or not, he would not force them. He did not have that many ties with the Atlanteans either.
"Right, how have things been on your end during this time?"
"Alright."
Last time he was here, the two of them had wiped out General Zod's group, which attracted some attention. Ethan had not been back since and did not know if Diana had encountered any trouble.
Seeing that she still had her ordinary person identity and a normal job, it seemed she had not been affected by it.
"I've only had contact with that Bruce Wayne a few times. As for certain people who wanted to cause me trouble, I dealt with them directly."
"Killed them?"
Diana rolled her eyes. She could certainly be ruthless, but if she killed some people, she would not be able to pretend to be an ordinary person so freely now.
"I just taught them a lesson so they'd realize I'm not someone they can mess with casually."
Diana paused, then briefly explained her situation to Ethan.
Unlike Superman, who was a "suddenly appearing alien," Diana had official records. Moreover, this world also had departments that dealt with special affairs. As long as they retrieved some records, they could find out about Diana's situation. After understanding Diana's identity and specific circumstances, they generally would not bother her anymore.
"Besides that kind of trouble?"
"Only Batman Bruce Wayne and Superman Clark Kent had a conflict."
Ethan was speechless. Without the disaster caused by General Zod, these two guys still ended up fighting. Did Luthor make a move again?
"Luthor?"
"That's part of the reason."
As soon as this topic came up, Diana started talking non-stop, but nine out of ten sentences were complaints about Batman Bruce Wayne. She thought Batman Bruce Wayne was mentally unstable.
As for why she did not complain about Superman Clark? That was because the last time she saw Clark, she and Ethan had already reached a consensus. This guy definitely had something wrong with his head.
Thinking about it that way, it seemed quite logical that two mentally unstable guys would get provoked and then fight.
Of course, no matter how logical it was, it was not an excuse, because after these two guys started fighting, Diana had to step in to mediate. Thankfully, no irreversible consequences were caused, and she also took the opportunity to arrest Luthor, who had instigated various disputes and deliberately faked several tragedies.
"Arrested? You didn't kill him?"
"No, that guy Clark wouldn't let me kill Luthor."
Ethan covered his face. Sure enough, Clark and Luthor were the true love, and Lois was just for continuing the Kryptonian bloodline.
Anyway, the "misunderstanding" between Superman and Batman was finally resolved, and Luthor also brought up another big problem. It seemed there would be invaders coming to Earth.
Already no longer young, with his temples already turning gray, Batman Bruce Wayne had to put on his battle suit again and go around investigating this matter.
At the same time, Diana and Clark had also reached a consensus that they would support Bruce immediately if any problems arose. The Justice League had already formed its embryonic form.
In addition, Bruce Wayne also went to find the Flash Barry Allen separately, as well as Logan, who often appeared by the sea...
"Wait... he's looking for Logan?"
"Although Logan came here to spend time with Atlanna, he doesn't stay in Atlantis all the time."
Logan was not an Atlantean, after all. He would not like staying underwater for extended periods, even if he had the ability to breathe underwater. It was a matter of lifestyle habits.
So Logan had his own residence on land. In fact, it was often Atlanna who came to the land to find Logan. Logan going into the sea was the minority.
Neither of them deliberately hid their special nature, so it was completely normal for Luthor and Bruce to keep an eye on them. However, after Luthor collected a lot of information, no one knew what he was planning to do. Bruce, on the other hand, was considering whether this was an enemy. If not, could they be recruited as allies?
So, with Aquaman missing, the Justice League was getting a Wolverine?
That image was a bit strange!
Just as Ethan was imagining what changes Wolverine joining the Justice League would bring, he felt a special fluctuation appear in this world.
He was all too familiar with this energy fluctuation. It was the wave emitted when a Boom Tube opened.
"Steppenwolf?"
After the battle between Batman and Superman, who would come to Earth using a Boom Tube? There was absolutely no suspense.
Bruce Wayne was actually investigating this guy, Steppenwolf, who would come to Earth with a large army, seize the three Mother Boxes on Earth, and then use the Mother Boxes to destroy the planet.
In the original plot, he would be beaten up by the newly formed Justice League, mainly severely beaten by the newly resurrected Superman, with the others cheering from the side.
However, in this world influenced by Ethan, it was not just Superman who could severely beat Steppenwolf. The Wonder Woman next to him, and the kingly man who lived by the sea, could both beat him until he doubted his life.
Putting his drink on the small table nearby, Ethan told Diana this news.
"Let's get our gear on and go welcome this guest!"
The most important reason for proactively going to meet the enemy was to avoid unnecessary casualties among the Amazon warriors.
"Don't make a move. This guy is mine!"
