"That was a little weird, wasn't it?" Alfred murmured to himself with a confused face after both the magical father-daughter duo left.
The butler was confused by so of the things that Giovanni had said in the conversation especially whenever he joked about things like magic. Who the hell jokes about the death of their wife being caused by a war with demons?
Bruce on the other hand wasn't confused at all because, unlike Alfred, he knew that the Zatara family was not ordinary at all but a magical one. So he knew exactly what he was talking about. But Bruce still had a certain doubt in his mind.
Giovani seed really protective of his daughter. He didn't even let her talk with Bruce much, let alone allow her to play with him alone. Even though he himself asked Bruce to be her friend to which Bruce imdiately agreed, he still left with his daughter after so ti, not letting her freely talk or play with him.
Giovanni told Bruce that he had so important work to do and thus had to leave for the day. He took Zatanna with him too even though Bruce told him that he wanted to celebrate his birthday with her along with his other friends.
'Is it purely because he is an overprotective father or is it because he was here for sothing else? Whatever he said he would send her to play here next week anyway, so I'll get my answers then' Bruce thought to himself frowning.
"Yeah, it was a little weird," Bruce replied as he took out a small machine the size of a TV remote the mont the Zatara family left the mansion grounds.
He then began to roam the entire room with the tool in his hand like he was looking for sothing with it.
After a few minutes, the lights on the device began to blink and rapidly change from white, red, green, and blue until a couple of seconds later, the green light glowed slightly more than the other lights and finally, the white light turned on.
"Interesting, so he did so sort of magic while he was in the room since there are traces of paranormal energies here but there is no active spell right now," Bruce muttered to himself as he frowned.
"What's that Master Bruce?" Alfred couldn't control his curiosity despite his best efforts and finally asked after so ti.
"This my capable guardian is a pk-ter I made recently. It can detect various supernatural energies and events. Red light ans ghosts or other demonic entities are detected nearby, green ans the detection of any paranormal substance or energy, blue ans the detection of a cursed object, and white ans everything is normal." Bruce explained but looking at Alfred's face, he doubted how much the butler was believing his words.
