Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil-Chapter 284: Upgraded

[ You Consumed A Demon’s Heart! ]

[ The heart contained too much power! ]

[ That power will be transferred to your Ego and it will be upgraded! ]

[ Usually, Ego upgrades after an individual crosses the 30 years mark in their life but you got infested with too much power so there is no choice but to upgrade your Ego! ]

[ You have two Egoes and you chose to upgrade your second Ego, Mimesis Malefica! ]

[ Therefore, the upgraded version of your Black Rank Ego, Mimesis Malefica is… ]

[ 1 : Before, you could only copy someone’s Ego after touching them for ten seconds. But now, you only have to touch them for five seconds to copy their Ego. ]

[ 2 : Before, you could only keep other’s Ego for a duration respectable to its ranks. The stronger the Ego, the shorter you can keep it with you. But now, you can keep any kind of Egoes with you for twelve hours. No matter what their rank is. ]

[ 3 : This upgrade is probably the best upgrade for Mimesis Malefica. Before, you could only copy others’ Ego. But now, if you copy the same Ego for twenty times, you will be able to steal it and keep that Ego with you forever.

In other words, if you copy an Ego for twenty times and try to copy it again for twenty oneth time, then by default, that Ego will be yours and the other person will lose their Ego for good. They will be Egoless for the rest of their life. ]

[ 4 : This is the last upgrade and it’s on the negative side. Before, when you used to copy someone’s Ego, a little of their life force was taken. But now that your Ego has been upgraded, if you copied someone’s Ego then the amount of life force taken will be large and if you stole someone’s Ego, then they might lose their life on the spot or they’ll be useless since their life force will be depleted greatly. ]

Pablo read all four upgrades of his Ego on the bed and he read them twice.

"This is good and all but the life force bit is hard." He said.

"Yes. Now if you copied Sera’s Ego, she will be weakened by a great amount. And if you want to kill her then sure keep copying her." Cupid shared her thoughts.

"I will think about it."

Pablo didn’t know at the moment what to do with his Ego and one hour was also up.

He heard some footsteps coming towards his room so he stopped talking about his Ego as well.

The doors of the room flung open and in the front, the King of the Kingdom greeted Pablo.

There were some other people with the King as well and Pablo had plans for them.

"You are awake. I was starting to get afraid." The King said. His real name was Jamal but after becoming Pablo’s loyal, he would carry on being Damascus Maverick.

"You were great that day." Boulder said. He was the only high duke left alive since the incident with the Demon.

Along with these two, there were some guards and the Abyssal Butcher Tank was also present.

He said nothing to Pablo and Pablo did the same.

"I am fine now. There is no need to worry." Pablo said to the King.

The King smiled.

Pablo did a little gesture with his eyes and the King was smart enough.

"I need to talk to him alone. You all may leave, but don’t leave this castle." The King ordered.

"What?" Tank questioned. "I have been here for five days now. I am bored out of my mind."

"That’s an order. And you will soon get your leave as well. Be patient." The King ordered once more.

Tank clicked his tongue and with Boulder and the other guards, left Pablo’s room.

"What do you want to talk about, Pablo?" The King asked.

"You sure understood my little gesture, old man. Good work." Pablo praised.

"I was taking orders like that from the real king way before. So it’s no big deal for me."

Pablo nodded and came to the point.

"As a King, you can do anything, right?"

"Yes. Most of the things."

"So I want you to do some things for me."

"Sure." The King agreed even before asking what Pablo wanted.

He was already scared of Pablo so he didn’t want to anger him. Though, the King wasn’t shivering anymore in front of Pablo.

"I had made you stamp on three blank papers but I don’t think I need them anymore. You can make it happen without any problem."

"Just state your wish." The King would hear Pablo’s demand.

Pablo took a deep breath and looked the King in the eye.

"I want three people to join the Abyssal Butchers division."

"Alright?" The King figured Pablo had more to say.

And he was right.

"I am not a detective. I am from the military and was on an assignment. I came here to cure the white mist to pass and become a military man."

Pablo finally revealed his identity.

The King scratched his forehead. "I kind of already knew that. So it’s not a shock for me."

"I know. And don’t speak anymore. Just keep listening."

The King nodded. He would just listen.

"I want three people, including me, to join the Abyssal Butchers division and give me a high rank within the division. I don’t give a fuck how you will do it, I just want it. Understand?"

The King nodded.

Pablo carried on.

"Next, I want all the Royals who were responsible for the destruction of the Hermit slums gathered in one place. The guards, the elderly, everyone. Were you also involved in that?" Pablo asked.

The King shook his head.

"So it was Jamal’s, I mean, the real Damascus’ order to attack the slums?"

"Yes. And there were some other royals as well." The King spoke.

Pablo hadn’t forgotten about those ghosts and his promise to them. He might not care about anything but he won’t go back on his word.

"Whoever was involved in that mess, should be gathered in one place. Is that clear?"

The King gulped. "What will you do with them?"

Pablo put his hand on the King’s shoulder and smiled.

"Just some regular clean up."
