Chapter 88 Jason, but a strange growth trajectory

Because the card of Jason Todd is exhibiting a peculiar semi-transparent state:

[Jason Todd - Plotline has changed]

[Description: Because Catherine Todd is still alive, he, who should have been living on the streets of Crime Alley soon after, is now living a new school life with the help of Wayne Enterprises.]

But it seems that a necessary stage in his life has invisibly turned in another direction...

Jaeger stared at the card, pondering: Could it be that the Jason Todd card is semi-transparent because this so-called other growth path has not yet been determined?

So Jaeger reached out and touched the card again.

The cards themselves didn't react, but a groove appeared on the card table as a result.

Jaeger had a sudden thought and placed the card of Jason Todd into the slot.

And as it turned out, his guess was correct.

Because the instant Jaeger placed the card into the slot, golden, branching lines extended across the table around the card.

These extending gold threads all connect to different entries.

Jason Todd is currently interested in vigilante, Batman, and magic-related topics.

[You can tap on existing entries to see possible growth directions.]

Jaeger: ?

interesting.

He thought for a moment and then casually tried the entry for "Vigilante".

[Description: Jason, who grew up in Crime Alley, was always thought to be a criminal when he grew up—but he didn't want to follow the path those people thought he would take.]

Perhaps becoming a vigilante, the complete opposite of a criminal, is the best way to silence those who question him?

[Growth Path: Secret Vigilante.]

[PS: If you help this character embark on this growth path, there is a 50% chance they will enter the classic storyline, in which case this card will be invalidated in the branch storyline - Gotham Rhapsody.]

There's a 50% chance I'll lose a card?

Jaeger was so startled that he quickly tried out Batman again.

[Description: Jason has always been fascinated by the bat-like figure that exists in Gotham's urban legends. On a certain night when Batman descended from the sky and easily subdued a criminal right before Jason's eyes, Jason's longing for this mysterious and powerful figure intensified...]

Perhaps there will never be another Batman to lend a helping hand to a child like him.

[Growth Direction: Following in the footsteps of Batman]

[PS: If you help this character embark on this growth path, there is a 50% chance they will enter the classic storyline, in which case this card will be invalidated in the branch storyline - Gotham Rhapsody.]

No? You're here too?

So, in the classic storyline, Jason was supposed to be a vigilante working alongside Batman?

So Jaeger had no choice but to select the entry again.

[Description: After encountering the detective wizard living in the mysterious apartment, Jason witnessed the existence of the anti-scientific mysterious power of magic for the first time, and was deeply shocked by it.]

Sometimes, looking at the detective, he would think: Maybe learning magic wouldn't be so bad?

[Growth Path: Magic-oriented]

[PS: This character doesn't seem to have a strong desire for this attribute, and may fail to progress along the character's growth path.]

What does that mean? None of the three entries work.

Jaeger hesitated for a moment, then thought, "Wait, if even just taking the three terms individually doesn't work..."

"How about trying a combination approach?"

With that in mind, he directly chose the combination of "Vigilante" and "Magic".

And so, entirely new text emerged:

[Description: To become a special, mysterious vigilante who can use magic? Jason occasionally dreams of this scenario in the dead of night.]

That's definitely a cool, attractive, and pretty good option! ...But the question is, how do he achieve it?
