American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

43. Comfort

Facing Alex's outstretched hand, Kara didn't move for a moment. However, she suddenly closed her eyes, and a high-frequency sound that ordinary people couldn't catch drilled into her ears, causing her a severe headache.

"Don't worry, this is a normal phenomenon. I need you to calm down, focus on me, and listen carefully to my words. Don't let other sounds distract you." Alex quickly understood Kara's reaction. She had just been strengthened by the yellow sun and hadn't adapted yet.

Guided by Alex, Kara chose to believe his explanation. Soon, the chaotic sounds gradually disappeared, and she began to feel better. Looking up at Alex, Kara's gaze was filled with confusion.

"Why do you seem to know me so well? What's going on? Why is this planet so strange?" Kara squinted slightly and suddenly realized that she seemed to see Alex's skeleton.

Feeling scrutinized by this gaze, Alex's cautious heart suddenly sensed something strange. It was a very magical feeling, as if he was being seen through by the other person, as if he were not wearing clothes and was completely exposed to the other's scrutiny.

Alex also understood that the other party had unlocked the X-ray vision incidentally. Suppressing his discomfort, Alex spoke up.

"The strangeness isn't with this planet but with the sun. You must be experiencing the yellow sun's radiation for the first time. This radiation can greatly enhance your body, making you like an 'invulnerable' Superman, while also amplifying your senses to an unimaginable intensity."

Listening quietly to Alex's explanation, Kara's floating body slowly descended to the ground on the rooftop. She was now full of curiosity about this human in front of her.

"I know you have many questions in your mind. Feel free to ask. As long as I know, I can tell you. This is also to show you my sincerity and gain your trust." Alex shrugged and said calmly.

"Who are you? How do you know so much about me?" Kara immediately asked the most pressing question in her mind.

"I already introduced myself earlier. I'm Alex, from another universe. Strictly speaking, I and my colleagues are searching for a universe suitable for me to live in. You can also understand it as me being a wanderer among multiple universes."

Alex chuckled lightly, seemingly self-deprecating about his experiences, then continued, "As for why I know so much about you, that's because I understand a lot about multiple universes, including you and your cousin."

"You know my cousin!" Kara suddenly became excited, interrupting Alex's words, and anxiously asked, "Do you know where he is now? Has he also been captured by these humans!?"

If there's anyone Kara is most worried about in this world, it's undoubtedly her cousin, Karl El. However, in other universes, Karl El has another name more well-known—Clark Kent, also known as Superman.

Kara is significantly older than Karl. When they left Krypton on a spaceship, Karl was still a baby in swaddling clothes. This is also what worries Kara the most. He's just a baby. If her cousin is captured and studied by humans, Kara can't imagine what might happen.

Seeing Kara's urgency, Alex didn't beat around the bush, speaking seriously. "Kara, I know you're anxious, but you'd better calm down. What I'm about to say, you might not be able to accept for a while."

"...," Kara understood immediately that her cousin probably met with an accident. She clenched her fists slowly, a surge of energy bursting out. Alex, who was closest, stepped back two steps. He knew Kara was suppressing her anger.

It was a terrifying emotion like a tsunami. Kara's eyes turned red at a visible speed, immense energy filling them, as if they were about to erupt in destructive chaos.

But Kara ultimately forced herself to calm down, slowly uttering a word through clenched teeth.

"Speak."

Seeing this, Alex sighed. "Don't misunderstand. Your cousin's accident has nothing to do with Earth. He died at the hands of General Zod. I believe you should remember this Kryptonian general."

"General Zod? The Kryptonian rebel? How is that possible? He was clearly exiled to the Phantom Zone!" Kara immediately retorted, her eyes full of disbelief.

"Indeed, but you should know that it was because of this exile that he survived Krypton's destruction. Subsequently, he intercepted your cousin's spaceship with his remaining forces and spent decades creating the Genesis Engine to locate your position."

At this point, Alex looked deeply at Kara and continued in a calm tone. "His goal was to find the central codex that records Kryptonian genes to rebuild Kryptonian civilization. He thought that codex was in your cousin's body, so he tried to extract it, but..."

Alex didn't continue his words. In fact, there was no need to. Kara clearly understood the situation. She couldn't imagine that her cousin's interstellar journey would end before it even began, and that the one who killed him was her fellow Kryptonian.

Kara's lips trembled slightly. She breathed heavily, trying to calm her emotions and angry heart, then she clung to the last shred of hope and said again, "Why should I trust you? You could be lying to me."

"But you know in your heart that I'm not lying to you because your eyes and ears can clearly perceive my heartbeat, right? Also, Zod has already come to Earth. His spaceship is hovering over Australia. If you don't believe me, you can go ask him."

Finishing his words, Alex looked at Kara, who was eager to try, and hurriedly continued, "Wait, you're not really planning to go ask him in person, are you? His purpose in coming to Earth is to find you. Are you planning to go to your death?"

"If what you say is true, then I will avenge my brother!" Kara roared.

"It's easier said than done. How do you plan to avenge him? You're both Kryptonians, both enhanced by the yellow sun, and it's clear that he was enhanced earlier than you. I admit you're powerful now, but if you want to kill him, that's simply impossible!"

With that, silence fell upon the rooftop. Kara's expression turned fierce, her inner anger and unwillingness finally bursting out into endless grievances.

As a survivor of Krypton, she had originally planned to take her brother to a new world to live, without needing to do much. Even if they just grew up peacefully, got married, and had children, that would have been fine. But she never expected that her brother had already fallen victim to violence.

At the same time, she was captured by the military as soon as she arrived on this planet and had been detained until now. Finally rescued, she couldn't even avenge her brother.

During the time of her captivity, it was her concern for her cousin's safety that kept Kara going.

This immense pain directly crushed Kara's fragile heart. She sat paralyzed on the rooftop, burying her head between her legs, letting out low sobs.

Seeing Kara like this, Alex hesitated for a moment, then walked up and gently patted Kara's head.

"Don't worry, I will help you."
