The Phantom Stranger frowned slightly, but he quickly understood the situation.
Dane had become the Lord of Hades, so it was no longer a terrifying place for him.
But the Phantom Stranger actually smiled. He looked at Constantine and said:
"I almost forgot about this. Given your good behavior in recent years, I can make a special request to those above to make an exception and let you go to Heaven. Or, would you like to take my place and walk the World?"
The Phantom Stranger's wandering in the human World was not by his own will; he was atoning for his sins.
He roamed the Earth like a stranger, yet he couldn't enjoy his life or build a family and relationships like other immortal beings.
He had to constantly answer the call of the "Voice of Heaven" and do many things for it, sometimes even venturing into places that were dangerous even for him.
For example, the last time Dane visited the Phantom Zone, it was too close to Hades's territory, and even the Phantom Stranger had to be extremely careful.
If Constantine wanted to take his things, then let him take them!
As for the Phantom Stranger himself, he would wait for this guy in Heaven. Once on the Angel's territory, it would be time to settle all old and new grudges.
Indeed, when Constantine heard this, his expression instantly changed, clearly having thought of the same thing.
But he had signed a contract with the Boss, so his soul shouldn't be under God's jurisdiction, right?
He looked at Dane with some uncertainty, trying to confirm.
But Dane only told him regretfully: "You're overthinking it. For now, I can't snatch souls from God."
Constantine immediately, like holding a hot potato, threw all the items in his hand back to the Phantom Stranger and then moved far away.
He would not go to Heaven, absolutely not!
At this moment, Blue Beetle flew back somewhat awkwardly. He wasn't injured; firstly, Clark wasn't serious, and secondly, Khaji-Da was indeed powerful, helping him withstand all the damage.
But Jaime was filled with remorse. His first debut had failed in such an undignified manner, which made him very upset.
Just then, Flash ran to his side like a bolt of lightning and nudged him with his elbow.
"Don't be discouraged, buddy, my first time wasn't much better than yours."
"Really?" Blue Beetle asked cautiously.
Barry whispered, "Shazam and the others won't blame you, but you have to watch out for Batman, he loves to criticize people..."
Suddenly, both of them felt a chill run down their spines from behind. They stiffly turned around, and Batman was giving them an unfriendly glare.
"I. Hear. You!"
"Sorry!" Barry and Blue Beetle said in unison, almost kneeling on the spot.
"We'll discuss this later," Batman said, and then made no other moves.
But Blue Beetle and Barry were worried, "He wouldn't use torture on us, would he...?" They heard that Batman loved to use extremely cruel torture on criminals, tormenting them... This method, one could tell, belonged to Red Hood or Robin, but the one who would pin it on others, that would only be Robin.
"So I guess this incident is over, right?" Clark walked over, rubbing his head.
Dane looked at him: "While I'm pleased that you were able to overcome the Magic Box's temptation, I must tell you that it's not over; on the contrary, it has just begun."
With that, Dane suddenly pointed his hand, and an electric arc shot out from his fingertip, crackling onto a spot on the ground.
"Cortana," Dane called out.
Cortana appeared, channeling magic in her hand, and cast a spell on the spot Dane had just struck with lightning.
A few seconds later, a body suddenly enlarged before their eyes—it was Atomica!
Cortana stepped forward and removed Atomica's belt. Without it, she wouldn't be able to control her body size as freely.
"Atomica? What's going on?"
They hadn't discussed Atomica on the Watchtower, although her absence from the meeting was somewhat surprising.
But Vixen had a faint suspicion: "Something's wrong with her, isn't it?"
"Yes." Dane gave her an appreciative look, then raised his hand, magically lifting the Magic Box from the ground and placing it on Atomica.
