Much later, I came out of the cave to find Gord getting tripped, sliced and otherwise beaten up by a pretty assassin lady. A few dozens Assassins cheered at the side, making a cheerful festival out if it.

"Who is she?" I asked Nyssa, who probably still reeled from the relaxation therapy. I felt very relaxed.

"That is Mesi_Natifah , now called Talibah, the seeker of knowledge." Nyssa said in a proud voice.

"She seems to like my Darth Gore friend. Arrange they stay together. I expect she knows seduction techniques and such?" I wondered in a light voice.

"Oh. Like really together?" Nyssa asked to make sure.

"Or even closer. Darth Gore is very strong, but lacks finesse. And he will need some skills as my right-hand man." I ordered with a wry voice.

"I'll see to it, Ra's. About Sara..." she asked in a milder voice.

I raised a finger, and Orange appeared beside me. "They have her corpse in the Arrowcave. And bring Canary's suit as well."

"Of course. The naked fun comes later." Orange answered with a giggle, and teleported away.

"With Orange at your side, there's no one who can beat you." Nyssa realized with a shiver.

"I wouldn't say no one. There are still Gods and demons around." I answered with a sad voice.

Orange returned with a frozen corpse, and the white suit worn by her as a vigilante.

"Shall we?" I nodded towards Nyssa, and we went to the back of my room where there was a 'fountain of youth' , also called a Lazarus Pit. Lay lines crossed just here, producing a powerful magic confluence that allowed the waters to have miraculous powers. Not just resurrection, but also healing wounds, disease or even prolong life.

Not at all a portal to Hell like I've imagined. I may need a specialist here. But first, let's see how this worked.

We lowered Sara Lance into the water, and sure enough, her wounds healed and she came back to life, but empty of a soul. Almost empty. That Hell Key did help, providing an anchor of sorts.

But Sara was still feral and filled with bloodlust. Didn't matter much with Orange here to subdue her, but wasn't ideal either.

"She came back bad..." Nyssa muttered in a desperate voice.

I filled my soul with Light, cleansing the corruption of Hell from Sara, even returning her to a mostly angry state. "Nyssa..." she growled in a heavy tone.

"Still a bitch, even after she died, huh?" I commented with a careless tone, making Sara twitch, then turn slowly towards me.

"No." She growled at me.

"She went to Hell, so she must be a bitch. Good girls go to Heaven." Orange added without prompt. Something from her old memories perhaps.

"Nevermind. I'll take her to a doctor." I declared in a flat voice, then vanished, to reappear in front of John_Constantine's manor in Newcastle.

"What do we have here..." the casually dressed warlock asked before I could knock on his door.

"Sara Lance." I said with a nod towards the angry woman.

"Oh no! I know her! I mean you. A wizard who failed to restore her soul? Lover? Enemy?" he tested at random. For a moment I doubted his sanity, but then I shrugged.

"Sara was dead, I brought her back to life. As for the other things, none of them. We worked together a few times." I answered with a shrug.

"Come in then. Let me arrange a circle." he said in a hurried voice, and proceeded to lay down a sloppy pentagram.

I just watched with concern, as the man barely knew what he was doing, laying down spells with missing links, sprinkling stuff all over for no reason. But despite all that, the spell actually worked, bringing the three of us into a spirit dungeon resembling the Lazarus Pit. A spirit Assassin leapt out of the Pit, and was promptly banished by my Light of the Soul and a single sword strike.

This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.

Then we dragged Sara out, and returned to his manor, with Sara gasping. "John, you came after me. And...No. Fuck. We're so fucked..." she muttered as the Hell Key came out of her hand.

"Is that a real Hell Key?" John_Constantine asked with a greedy voice.

"Indeed. You can take it. And this book as well." I said and offered the warlock my first spell book looted in Midway City.

He rifled though the book in surprise. "Are these spells, real wizard spells?"

"They are. Energy Barrier, Astral Trap, Shadows and Energy Blast" I explained and performed them slowly, using a low powered blast to light his chimney.

The man nodded with high energy. "That's how it is! I was doing it all wrong! And this key..." he whispered as the Hell Key melted in his hand.

"Lucifer gave it to me. We spent a long night drinking and stuff." I said with a shy tone.

As the Hell Key began to speak in his mind, John paled, just like Sara beside him. "You beat up Lucifer Morningstar! And, also drank a dozen bottles of whiskey with the Devil. Fuck!"

I let then man curse and grabbed Sara before she could run. "See you later, John!"

And we vanished.

I brought Sara to my trap lair, and placed a bottle in her shaky hands. She gulped half without even blinking.

"Come on, I can't be worse than Hell, right?" I asked and poured myself a bit of whiskey as well.

"Close enough. I died, and you brought me back. And that Key...fuck. Poor John." she muttered in a shiver.

"I expect I don't have to warn you about keeping secrets and stuff. In other news, I have also become Ra's al Ghul a few days ago. He attacked Star City with a bioweapon, so I burned him alive." I continued by showing her my new ring.

"Haha! That idiot. He chose to suicide in a grand fashion." Sara commented and drank some more.

"Now, your former girlfriend, Nyssa is still a concern. She wants you back, and both of us in a threesome. Which would be great, as I won't have to kill her, in this way. Your choice though. " I said in a casual voice.

Sara peeked at me, and managed a slight grin. "You want to bang that bitch?"

"I admit, it would help me control the League a bit easier. Continuity of government and such. Or I can kill them all, start fresh. And you'd be a great help too. I mostly do stuff like cure cancer and other research, not rule a murderous gang of criminals." I admitted with a shrug.

*Affection +30 30/100

"It was you? Of course it was. The Grey Wizard is a big shot hero, after all. What else?" she asked a bit more interested.

"Just give me a long kiss as a thank you. I remember you wanted to eat me whole, one time." I answered with a wry grin.

She obliged and we kissed for a long time.

*Affection +10 40/100

"God, you're a really good kisser. Want something else too?" she offered without prompt.

My dick hardened at once.

"Firstly, just inhale this. You're too fragile to handle me right now." I asked and held out my Miracle inhaler.

She widened her eyes, realizing what it was. Possibly from Oliver.

Without hesitation, she inhaled the Miracle and became slightly superhuman.

*Affection +10. 50/100.

"I was going to offer you a blowjob as thanks, but you've earned the full service now." Sara said as her eyes took a hungry glint.

I dropped my pants, and let my dick hang in front of her face.

"Blowjob sounds nice, for now."
