Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil

Malvador was the Chief.

The Chief of the Special Forces that was created just to capture Criminal X.

Criminal X being Pablo Castillo.

Pablo never got to know the name of the Chief but he was surely surprised when he got to know that someone from Earth had arrived in Seraphim.

Cupid had told Pablo that he shall be punished for his sins by the Gods and the Gods had chosen Malvador or Chief to punish Pablo.

Because for them, if anyone could match Pablo, it was the Chief of the special forces who had captured Pablo in the first place.

But the Gods had no clue that Pablo was worse than any Chief.

The Gods had sent the Chief to Seraphim and they had made him born in the slums of Jasper Kingdom. The Kingdom of the Vampires.

The Chief had taken the body of a boy named Malvador and he had gotten the same conditions as Pablo.

The body of the vampire boy was weak but the Chief worked hard and gathered strength.

Pablo had watched the memories of Malvador when he had copied his Ego and seeing the memories, Pablo got to know that Malvador had awakened two Egoes. Just like Pablo.

That was all it took for Pablo to know that the real Malvador was dead and inside him was another soul.

But even before seeing Malvador's memories, and even before the dragon king's revelation, Pablo had got to know that Malvador wasn't from Seraphim. Or there was something wrong with Malvador.

One time before the war started or during the war, Pablo and Malvador were arguing in the Crucible and amidst this, Pablo had asked Malvador in annoyance if he was Jesus Christ.

And in return Malvador showed no surprise and replied that he wasn't Jesus Christ.

As soon as Malvador had said that, Pablo figured that Malvador knew something about Earth.

Because if someone was born in Seraphim, they would have no idea who Jesus Christ was. If Malvador really belonged to Seraphim, he would have asked Pablo in confusion about Jesus Christ.

But the Vampire didn't do that. He just straight out said he wasn't Jesus Christ and from then on, Pablo got to know that there was something wrong with Malvador.

Of course, he didn't know that the Chief was inside Malvador's body but now, Pablo knew that too.

And he also figured out why the Chief hated him from all his being.

Pablo was a criminal. Many people hated him.

But Pablo had done nothing wrong personally to the Chief. Also, Pablo was sure that the Chief couldn't give a fuck about people just like Pablo.

So why did he hate Pablo so much?

The reason for that was the Chief was an egotistic man.

He believed that he was the best soldier in the whole world and he could do anything. No criminals were bigger than him. He could subdue any criminal. He also used to believe that he was the best Commander as well. There was no one better than him to be the Chief.

But when Pablo killed all of his subordinates, the Chief's ego took a dip.

Then Pablo also killed thousands of people before dying which made the Chief furious. Because Pablo was his responsibility and he failed at controlling Criminal X.

From outside, he told everyone and himself that he hated Pablo because he was a criminal who killed his comrades and soldiers. But in reality, he hated Pablo because of only one reason.

Pablo made him look incompetent.

Malvador's eyes widened after hearing Pablo's words and he couldn't retort to that. Pablo saw through him. He saw through him crystal clear.

Pablo laughed seeing the vampire king's face.

The soldier and the people watching from the Forza kingdom had no idea what these two men were talking about but they were enjoying the fight and they would like to see Malvador's death which could be any second now.

"You are right." Malvador said. "That's exactly why I hate you, Pablo. You were the only loss in my career. No one was able to kill me or defeat me. But an eighty five year old man destroyed my pride. How could I not hate you for that."

"Now we are talking. You should be honest. Embrace who you are and no one can do shit to you."

Malvador nodded. "I know. That's why I am choosing death now."

Pablo frowned. "You won't fight anymore?"

Malvador laughed.

"I can't kill you. I never thought you would become someone like this. I didn't know you had this much power. The Gods had only sent me to punish you, not to kill you. That's why they didn't give me any special powers like they gave you. They told me you are here because they chose to eradicate evil from this world. I had laughed for five minutes hearing that. But I can see that you have changed. You don't go for the throat right away anymore. You have become a little soft."

Pablo shrugged.

Malvador carried on. "I won't fight anymore. Even if I made you bleed, you will heal. If I am winning then you can just order all those Angels to kill me. I lost."

The vampire king summoned Gemini in his right hand.

Pablo and everyone else watched the next steps of the Vampire king.

Malvador brought the tip of the Gemini on the left side of his chest and pushed it inside.

But he didn't use all his strength and only pierce the skin.

Then, he moved Gemini and began skewering his own skin.

He moved Gemini in a circle around his heart and after a few seconds, his whole skin on the left side of his chest came off.

The skin fell on the ground and as soon as the skin came off…

TICK!

TICK!

TICK!

The sound of a clock ticking echoed in the Crucible.

Everyone looked around to find it but Pablo told them where to look.

"His heart." He said.

The soldiers jerked their heads right away and when they saw it, their brows shot up.

Inside Malvador's chest…

There was a red ticking clock.
