Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil

Pablo proposed an offer. It was more like a command.

When the carriage driver heard that, his eyes shone with hope.

But it was the opposite with the General. His face fell and sweat arose from his pores.

"You must be joking, Marshal. Are you seriously taking this carriage driver's words for something? You and I belong to the same breed. You don't need to think about him."

The carriage driver stared at Pablo. His eyes begging Pablo to not change his mind.

"If we didn't find his wife and daughter inside your house then I will personally execute him. And it's not like you have actually kept his wife and girl inside your house, right?"

The General opened his mouth again but Pablo had already turned away.

He slammed open the gates of the General's mansion and the carriage driver followed behind Pablo.

Flashy, Nike and Hena also went inside and Hena stick close to Pablo.

She wasn't being clingy, she was just afraid of something. Something called Dogs.

The General was still outside the mansion and his dogs were just howling at Pablo and the group. They weren't attacking.

But the next moment…

FWEET!

The General whistled and all four dogs pounced on Pablo.

"Colt." Pablo called.

A menacing black sword manifested on Pablo's hand and Pablo swung it right away.

Three dogs were beheaded on the spot but one dog dodged.

Pablo had a sword and seeing the death of its three companions with his hands, he didn't bother Pablo.

But he would surely bother the one sticking closest to Pablo—Hena.

The elf girl's legs froze. Seeing such a burly dog in front of her, she trembled constantly and fell on her knees.

Pablo moved instantly to kill the last one but the dog saw that too.

So it wasted no time and launched itself at Hena.

Hena's eyes widened, she raised her hands to protect her face but the fear was too much.

In the immense fear, she ended up shouting :

"Go away!"

Of course, shouting like that won't help her. The dog wouldn't just listen to her and go away.

But the next second, a white light flashed out of her palms and fell on the dog's entire body.

Pablo stopped, not knowing what was going on.

After a few seconds though, Pablo got to know what was going on.

Just after the white light from Hena fell on the dog's body, the dog disappeared.

…

Everything and everyone went silent.

Pablo couldn't believe his eyes.

The General had his mouth hanging and Flashy and Nike were the same.

The white light went away and sensing the silence, Hena opened her eyes.

She looked around and found no dogs. She only saw the three dead demonic dogs that Pablo killed.

The one dog who pounced on her, was nowhere to be seen.

She looked around and saw Pablo's surprised expressions.

She slowly stood up.

"What… happened?" She meekly asked.

"You don't know?" Pablo asked in return.

"I don't. The last thing I know I was wishing the dog to go away."

"I see. Your wish was granted then."

"What? It went away?" Sera asked, surprised and shocked and mostly happy.

"Yes. And we will talk about it later. First, the General needs some teaching."

Hena didn't know what she did but she was glad that no more dogs were around.

The slaves and Flashy were not that afraid to begin with anyway. The carriage driver was too rageful to be scared of some dogs. He would have killed them himself if they had attacked him.

"Come here, General." Pablo called.

The General was still outside the mansion but upon Pablo's call, he had to present himself.

He wanted to run away but it would only increase his problems if he did that.

Therefore, he arrived in front of Pablo.

Beside Pablo, the carriage driver was standing and he stared daggers at the fat man.

"What is the meaning of this?" Pablo asked.

The General flinched. "They are demonic dogs, Marshal. They do what they want."

"Don't lie. I heard your whistle. Before the whistle, they were just howling at us. You wanted us dead."

The General trembled. He really hoped the dogs would have killed Pablo. But he was being too wishful.

The General just kept trembling, he couldn't say anything. He had no excuses.

Pablo stored his sword back inside his bracelet.

"We will search your mansion now. Walk in the front."

He gave the order and the General was in no position to argue.

He started walking and the others followed him inside the mansion.

Pablo looked at the carriage driver.

"What's your name?"

"Jailer Crust."

"Go berserk and search every nook and cranny of this place. You will surely find what you are looking for."

The carriage driver nodded like a chicken.

"Flashy, go with him."

"Yes."

The carriage driver didn't wait for Flashy to follow as he dashed at all the rooms he could find in his way.

Flashy did the same and both men went full raiding mode.

"You too, Nike, help them."

Nike nodded and joined the raiders.

Now only Pablo, Hena and the General were left.

They were in the hall of the mansion while the raiders were in various floors of the mansion.

"Sit."

Pablo and Hena sat on a sofa while the General sat on the chair placed in front of Pablo.

"You really like to play with women, right?" Pablo asked.

The General didn't reply, his head down.

"You hate the poor, common people but surely like their woman. Talk about hypocrisy."

Pablo leaned forward, placing his elbows on his knees.

"You go for the common women because you know you won't get any exceptional, royal, noble, woman in your whole life. You satisfy your urge by using what you can afford."

The General jerked his head upward, his eyes were now glaring.

Pablo smiled. "I am right then. You are a lost cause."

"What do you care? You are not a saint as well, Marshal."

"I know. But I am not a dead weight on this world. You only want women and pleasure. You are drunk in your position as a General. You are an overweight fiend. I certainly hate people of your kind. I will era-"

"Boss!" Flashy shouted from the top floor.

Pablo raised his head. "What? I was talking."

"Forget that, Boss." Flashy's face was pale.

"You have to see this."
