Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil

The soldiers shared a laugh in Ground 2 and decided to leave it when they felt their legs again.

Sera, however, just asked Andrezj to restore her health and the male Angel did it.

The girl was now ready to walk again and all the other soldiers could just shake their heads.

They were not able to move even a little and Sera was already ready to walk.

No wonder she chose Boss to love. They are the perfect match. Flashy thought and stayed on the ground like a corpse as Sera left Ground 2.

Pablo didn't know any of that as he was already inside his room.

Lying on his bed, his head residing on the wall behind the bed as he stared at the ceiling.

Cupid said nothing as she could guess what Pablo might be doing.

He was running simulations inside his head after reaching the Hollow kingdom. He was seeing every possible problem that could happen there while coming up with their solutions at the same time.

He burns calories just by doing this. Cupid snickered as she wrote things in her diary.

After ten minutes, Pablo shook his head and broke out of his stupor.

He took out his Receiver and dialed a number.

After just one ring, it was picked up.

"Yes, Pablo. What is it?" The other side said. The voice had some urgency in it and Pablo figured it was because of his fear the other side had in their heart.

"How are you, King? You seem tense. You shouldn't be this afraid of me." Pablo replied, smiling.

"Um… I am in the bathroom right now. I have been constipated for a few days now."

Pablo's lips twitched.

"I.. see. So you are talking from the bathroom?"

"Yes. It was your call that's why I picked it up. Otherwise I would have focused on this…" The King paused, grunted. "Solely."

Pablo heard some noises he wished he didn't so before he could hear more, he told the reason he called the King.

The King heard it clearly and he didn't even question anything this time.

He just told Pablo that it would be done and waited for the young man to cut the call.

Pablo sighed. "Just don't forget about it because of your constipation. I am ending the call."

"Oka-ggh!"

BEEP!

Pablo cut the call before he could hear some more cursed noises.

He then shook his head and closed his eyes.

Cupid remained silent and in silence, the day ended.

…

The next day.

Pablo and the soldiers were again present on Ground 2.

The eight slaves, Sera and Gerald were there too and Pablo was on the stage like usual.

It was 5 am in the morning again. The sun had yet to show its face as partial darkness remained on the ground.

Pablo surveyed everyone and he noticed the mood was light. They all were standing closer to each other and some inside jokes were being made. They were laughing and even Sera was passing comments.

The training worked it seems. Pablo thought and carried on with today's mission.

"Everyone," He said. "We are going to Hollow tomorrow. So today is a very important day. So I won't waste any time and tell you what is going to happen now."

The soldiers remained silent as they were also curious to know what Pablo would do.

But instead of telling them, Pablo raised his hands and clapped three times.

The soldiers waited for something to happen but they saw no change.

Pablo also placed his hands on his back.

Everyone looked around to see any changes but they saw nothing.

Draxus and Flashy were the only ones who weren't looking around. They had been with Pablo for enough time to know something would definitely happen. So they simply waited.

And indeed after one minute…

THUMP!

THUMP!

THUMP!

Everyone heard the sound of footsteps coming towards Ground 2 and there were too many of them. If they were less they wouldn't have been able to hear them anyway.

All the soldiers and slaves and other people became vigilant as all eyes stared at the entrance of the ground.

The gate was on their left side and Pablo's right side and Pablo knew what was coming so he didn't even pay attention to it.

After two minutes, everyone finally saw people dressed in green uniforms and along with them, people wearing black and white striped clothes were there.

All of them recognized who they were as their eyes shot to Pablo.

The people in green uniforms were guards and not ordinary guards, they were the guards that stayed in the king's castle.

And with each guard, was a man with black and white striped clothes and it was obvious who they were.

They were criminals.

Each city had a prison and the soldiers weren't sure from which prison these criminals came from.

Each criminal had handcuffs around their wrist and a round big metal ring around their necks. The handcuffs and the neck ring were connected with each other through a thick metal chain.

Their faces screamed that they were bad news as almost all of them had scars on their faces. But what surprised the soldiers the most, was that all of them had hopes in their eyes. As if they were looking forward to something.

The soldiers stared at Pablo for an answer but their Marshal paid them no mind so in the end, they just sighed and waited for the man to tell them himself.

Draxus, however, didn't look at Pablo for any answer and instead, tried to think of one himself.

He stared at the new arrivals and decided to count them all.

It took him one minute to do that and when he was finished, he had figured out the basics of today.

Czar sure is serious today. He thought and decided to wait for things to play out.

The guards and criminals made a group just like the soldiers as they stood next to the people going to Hollow.

All of them bowed to Pablo and the latter nodded.

After that nod, Pablo said what everyone was waiting to hear.

"Everyone, these people are here to… well.." He paused, eyed everyone and said in one breath.

"They are here to kill all of you."
