Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil-Chapter 278: Enough People

Damascus stopped time.

Everyone in the basement came to a stand still and Damascus jumped at Draxus.

Or atleast he tried to.

SNAP!

One more snap of fingers rang out in the room and it wasn’t from Damascus.

The next moment, every thing started moving again.

Time resumed again.

"What!?" Damascus exclaimed.

"I wasn’t done talking." Pablo spoke.

"You overrided my Ego?"

"Don’t use such words. But yeah, I did that. You may be the King but I couldn’t care less."

"You bastard!" Damascus cursed at the top of his lungs as that was all he could do.

Pablo sighed.

Only Damascus and Pablo knew what took place few seconds ago and Draxus, the King, and Hustler was clueless.

"So what now, Czar?"

"Why did you call me here?"

"How did you know all this?"

Draxus, Hustler and Damascus all asked their own questions.

"I know all this because it’s me. And I called you here because you also want a bite of me. And Draxus, you will see what happens now."

Pablo answered all three of them at once and looked at Damascus.

"So, the real King, you will never be able to kill Draxus and now that I am here, you will never be able to take your own throne."

"Why?" Damascus didn’t get it.

Pablo didn’t explain as well.

"I will turn the false play in reality."

"Wha-"

Pablo waved his hand and his sword manifested itself.

He held the sword and…

SPLUCK!

He pierced Damascus’ face.

The tip of the sword came out from the top of his head.

Pablo killed the real King of Forza.

And he wasn’t done.

After stabbing with his sword, he summoned fire and burned the real younger son.

"Can’t risk it."

Damascus burned to cinders and the other people could only watch.

The puppet king, Jamal Fuhrer went agape as he looked at Pablo with horror filled eyes.

"Please. Don’t kill me. I have nothing to do with this. I was just following orders. Don’t kill me!" Jamal begged for his life. He held Pablo’s feet. He didn’t wanted to die.

"You will keep following orders now as well." Pablo said.

"Huh? I don’t understand."

"I said you’ll keep acting as the King. You’ll stay the puppet but only mine. Got that?"

"Yes. Yes. Yes! I’ll be your puppet." Jamal agreed.

"And if you even think of betraying me…"

Pablo’s eyes glowed golden.

"No. No. I will never betray you. I promise. I promise!" Jamal cried harder.

"Fine. Leave my leg now. Go stand in the corner."

"Yes!"

Jamal stood up and as Pablo said, he went to the corner.

"Now, about you.."

Pablo looked at Adolf.

"I see that you have become a Vampire. But it won’t help you."

"There is no need to kill me now though. I won’t come in your way. I just wanted a position in the military." Adolf said. His face wasn’t filled with fear like Jamal.

"I would left you alive but you said all those things in the camp. Why did you acted so against me if you were going to act like this now?" Pablo asked.

"I didn’t know you were this strong. I may be a scum but I am smart enough to pick my opponents. You weren’t this strong in the camp."

"Fair enough. But since the moment I got to know you, I had made up my mind."

"Why?" Hustler asked.

"Your name. Your first name. I hate that. I couldn’t kill the real thing but I will have my fun with you."

"That’s gay." Hustler replied.

Draxus frowned. "Are you seriously joking right now? You are going to die."

"Well, I can’t fight back anyway. Might as well die in a good mood." Hustler flashed a smile.

Pablo returned the smile.

"What was your assignment?" He asked.

"To find out whether the Cannibals and Vampires were hiding in this kingdom or not."

"Oh. Well, it doesn’t matter now."

"What was yours, if I might ask?" Hustler asked in return.

"To stop the white mist. This Demon was out of syllabus."

"You completed it as well. Nice work. But I was hiding in the king’s castle for a long time, gathering intel and I heard you and the puppet king was having a talk in private before you went out to fight the mist. What was that about?"

"So you were hiding? I didn’t even know that. You did well. And about the private talk, we had a feeling that there is a traitor and I pretty much know it was Jamal or the real Damascus.

Damascus knew all along the Cannibals and Vampires were behind the mist. He was helping them to attack the kingdom.

The Cannibals and Vampires wanted this kingdom to die so they agreed but they didn’t know that Damascus will kill them.

Damascus was confident on his Ego and when the Cannibals and Vampires would have attacked the kingdom he would have killed them in front of the residents and would have become a hero.

And he believed with the death of the Cannibals the white mist would go away and he will be hailed as a hero and after he kills Draxus, he will become the King and the people will also accept him as the King. It was a full proof plan.

But I came in his way.

It was me and the puppet king’s sole idea to find the traitor. Damascus didn’t know any of that.

But I knew all about Damascus’ plan. Everything."

"How did you know all that?" Hustler asked.

"I saw his memories."

Hustler smiled. "You are too much. What else can you do?"

"I won’t talk to you anymore. It’s over."

"Alright. Kill me in one go."

Hustler spread his arms and Pablo’s sword did the work.

It pierced Hustler’s chest and his heart stopped. He died.

After that, Pablo summoned fire again and burned Hustler to ashes.

"One more dead. One less tension."

Draxus and the King remained silent and Draxus waited for the next things Pablo would do.

"Alright. One more thing is left.."

Pablo joined his fingers.

"Are you going somewhere?" Draxus asked.

"Yeah. I killed enough people for today."

Pablo closed his eyes and found what he was looking for.

"It’s time to save one."
