Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil

Chapter 381: Before the Hollow, There Is A Purpose



The King asked Pablo why was he so adamant on creating Gods?

Andrezj also wanted to know that so Pablo answered both of them with one simple phrase.

"Because I can."

At that, the King just sighed but the male Angel surely opened his mouth.

"I know you are doing this for the Gods. I was just surprised by your ways, not your intentions."

Pablo showed a thumbs up to Andrezj.

The King frowned.

"Why are you saying all the best to a wall?"

Pablo shook his head. "It's nothing. You just start the work. Before going to Hollow, I would like to see the end goal."

"Don't worry about it. It will end in one day at most. I will call you when it's done."

Pablo nodded.

"That's good then. Call that teleportation guard again. Send me to my room."

The King obliged and clapped his hands.

WHISH!

Someone appeared in front of him and Pablo recognised the man all too well.

It was the same guard who brought Pablo to the King in the first place.

"What do you need, my lord?" The guard asked.

The King wasted no time. "Send the Marshal back from where you brought him. And,"

The King looked at Sera. "Take his wife too."

Sera beamed. "Yes. You are good, old man. Sorry for shouting at you earlier."

The King smiled. "Anything for missus Pablo Castillo."

Sera's eyes widened.

"Say that again."

"Missus Pablo Castillo?"

"One more time. Say it."

"Missus Pablo Casti—"

"She is not my wife, dammit." Pablo snapped. "Stop that. How many times do I have to tell you?"

The King shut his mouth.

Sera kept smiling.

She shoved her hand inside her bracelet and brought out a pouch of coins.

Then she placed it on the palm of the King.

The King stared at it.

"... Um, lady, you do know that I am the King of this kingdom, right?"

"Yes."

"Then I don't need such money. Take it."

The King tried to return it but before Sera could say something, Pablo stopped the King.

"Just take it. She is happy. And I don't have all day here. Guard, send us back to the room."

"Yes. Yes. Right away, sir."

The guard arrived between Sera and Pablo.

"Place your hand on my shoulder, both of you and then we will teleport."

The guard said a normal thing and Pablo placed his hand on the guard's shoulder but Sera, she moved and stood beside Pablo.

Pablo stared at her with confusion.

Sera saw his gaze and smiled.

"I won't touch any other man apart from you, dear. You are the only one for me."

Pablo lost words.

Sera held Pablo's hand and rested her head on his shoulder.

Pablo only stared at the peaceful smile of Sera when she was close to him.

Cupid, on the other hand, squeezed her chest. "She loves you so much. If you ever marry someone other than her, I swear I will learn to fight and kill you myself."

"I will kill him first." Andrezj chimed in.

And it seemed the King won't stay behind as well. "You both have my blessings. You got a gem, Pablo. Cherish her. And no, lady, I get that you are happy again but I don't want another pouch of coins."

Pablo said nothing in reply to anyone and just looked at the guard.

"Do it."

The guard nodded and closed his eyes.

He muttered something under his breath and in the blink of an eye, Pablo was back inside the room of the military camp.

But only he and Sera were inside the room.

The guard was nowhere to be seen.

'I see. He can teleport anyone wherever he wants while teleporting himself to another place at the same time. Nice.'

Pablo kind of figured out the Ego of the guard but didn't pay that much mind to it.

He slumped on the bed and Sera sat beside him.

"You can leave my hand now." Pablo said.

"Oh. Do you not like it?"

"Yes. I don't like it. I have some work to do."

"Okay."

Sera reluctantly let go of Pablo's hand.

"Now go to your room. I need silence. And take a bath too."

Sera jolted from the bed.

"Am I stinking?"

'She showed that much of a reaction just because I asked her to take a bath?'

"She loves you that's why. She would never want to smell bad when she is with you in fear you will hate her. But you won't get it anyway."

Cupid explained just in time and Pablo just scoffed.

"You don't smell bad. I am just saying take a bath and then meet me if you want. For now, just leave."

"Oh. Okay. I will come back after one hour." Sera turned towards the door and dashed out of the room.

"She still thinks she smells foul even after you clarified. That's how much she values you. She will only give you the best of her."

Pablo glanced at Cupid.

"Why are you so interested in this? Only your name is Cupid. You aren't one."

"I am a female too. Of course I am interested in this."

"Fuck off."

"Wha—"

Pablo ignored her and finally focused on the thing he wanted to do for a while now.

The thing for which he had copied Nike's Ego for.

Pablo closed his eyes and without further ado, activated the copied Ego.

[ Creator (Dark Red) : You can create anything you want as long as you have a clear image of that thing inside your mind. ]

[ Note : You can create only one thing per day. ]

Pablo wanted to create two different things but since Nike's Ego allowed only one thing per day, he had to copy it to create the second thing he wanted.

Therefore, he imagined the thing he wanted to create down to each and every detail.

The thing he was creating was a very simple one and he had used it quite a lot in his life back on Earth.

He faced no problem in imagining it and after ten minutes, something manifested itself in midair and after one more minute, it fell on Pablo's lap.

Cupid saw it and her brows shot up.

Pablo opened his eyes and held the thing in his hand.

He grinned from ear to ear as this was one of those times when Pablo feels truly happy.

"Long time no see, mate."
