He hadn't finished speaking when Octopus Man interrupted him with a deep breath, "The other one is my brother."
"Well... is he okay?"
Blue Owl tentatively asked, thinking that he could finally inquire about the background of his brother, and if it was not related to Octopus Man's brother and the Tikeeper, he had no interest in cozying up to this guy.
Upon hearing this, Octopus Man fell silent for a while, "He went missing many years ago."
"Missing?"
"Before he disappeared, he was discussing sothing with ."
"What was it?"
"I thought my father was great, he sacrificed himself to save the lives of others," Octopus Man said, his voice hoarse as he looked down, "but my brother was different... he thought it was those people who killed our father, it was all their fault."
Blue Owl was stunned for a mont, thinking to himself that his brother had quite the mindset; no wonder he turned out a villain with prospects—background like his could at least reach the level of Tikeeper in the future, though still not as high as us, the exterminating star-level otherworldly fiends.
"After that, I never saw him again," Octopus Man took a deep breath, "but I did encounter a criminal with superpowers quite similar to his, called 'Death Disaster Star'."
While speaking, he paused for a mont, "And then one day, people from the Superhero Association found , they showed a photo."
"A photo?" Blue Owl frowned.
Octopus Man's gaze grew dimr as he lowered his head.
He said, "In that photo, Death Disaster Star was with Tikeeper. The Tikeeper was teaching him how to dissect an A-grade superhero's corpse, and they turned this process into a series of photos, sending them to the Superhero Association's official email as a provocation."
Blue Owl cocked his head, "For real?"
"Do you think I'm joking?"
"You indeed don't seem like soone who would make jokes."
"Anyway, after that... I seized the opportunity to voluntarily get training from the association and beca a superhero," Octopus Man gazed at his palm, "I want to know if that criminal beside Tikeeper is really my brother, or whether... my brother had actually died long ago, and the person in the photo is just so beast with powers similar to my brother's."
His tone grew increasingly somber as he spoke, "Also, I want to reach the very top of the superheroes to give my father the attention he deserved, not let those undeserving fools occupy everyone's view..."
Upon hearing this, Blue Owl first shrugged, then inhaled deeply and rambled, "Serious vendetta there," then slowly said,
"So, speaking logically, you're so honest about that undeserving fool you ntioned, aren't you afraid I might expose all this using so despicable ans?"
"That would be exactly what I want, the association has always forbidden from speaking out, or else they'll revoke my superhero credentials."
Octopus Man softly continued, "I've told you, and if you leak it, we'll both be in trouble, not just , you won't be able to beco a superhero either, you understand?"
"Wow... then I'd rather not know about it," Blue Owl said, with feigned indifference.
"You weren't supposed to ask in the first place."
"You should be glad I didn't dodge the friendly match next month, missing out on the chance to ride on my coattails," Blue Owl paused, "Besides, actually it was Dice Monster who brought my popularity, if only you could attract that lunatic's attention too."
As he was speaking, a panel suddenly popped up in front of him.
