Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil-Chapter 281: Message
Pablo crossed the limit of sins. According to the Gods at least.
"So what will you do?" Demeter asked about Altor’s next step.
"We will surely punish him. He should know that he is not above us. He should meet his match." Altor said.
"His match? He was unbeatable on Earth. Where could we find someone who will fight against him equally?" Demeter raised another question.
"There was one." Rameses chimed in.
Altor looked at him. "I think the same."
Demeter frowned. "Who are you talking about?"
"Everyone on Earth hated Pablo but there was one who hated him more than anyone else." Altor said.
"Who?" Alfida asked this time. She also didn’t know.
Rameses sighed. "The Chief of the special force."
"Ahh. Yes. That man. He can match his level." Demeter finally remembered.
"Yes. I almost forgot about him." Alfida also got it.
"Yes." Altor smiled. "He also wants revenge from Pablo. His comrades died by his hands. He would surely love a chance to hurt Pablo."
"That’s a good idea but how will you make sure that he does what we say? What if he also starts acting on his own?" Demeter asked.
"First of all, Pablo is bound by contract. He has to eradicate evil from Seraphim. He can’t betray us unless he wants to die. So we will do the same thing with the Chief. We only want to punish Pablo. No killing is needed." Altor revealed his plan.
"So we will send that Chief just to remind Pablo that we are not weak. That’s good. But let’s say, what if the Chief failed. Pablo is not a normal man after all." Demeter said.
Rameses clenched his fists. "Why are you siding with that Human? It’s like you are his accomplice."
"Shut up. I have seen what he went through. I sympathise with him. I am not saying he is right for killing those hostages but as mother nature is… I accept people as they are."
"Hmph." Rameses stopped talking.
Altor sighed. "Whatever it is. Let’s just go with this plan."
"Sure. But what will be the job of this Chief? What will you tell him to do?" Alfida asked.
Altor smiled. "Just don’t kill Pablo."
All the other Gods nodded and they all began to do the summoning.
’Wait for a while, Pablo. You are getting way ahead of yourself.’
Altor’s thoughts were visible on his face and the Gods asked nothing.
They just proceeded to call the soul of the Chief.
———
Back in Seraphim.
Inside the king’s castle.
Pablo opened his eyes.
He instantly sat up right.
"Good morning."
Pablo looked beside him.
"Angel."
Cupid was beside his bed.
Pablo recalled everything that happened before he fell asleep.
"How long?" He asked.
"Five days."
"Fair enough."
Pablo was asleep for five days which was understandable.
Nevertheless, now that he was awake, he would move forward.
He left the bed and went inside the bathroom.
Thud!
The door of the room opened.
It was a guard.
He saw the empty bed of Pablo and he went pale.
"The detective is missiii…"
"I am here." Pablo answered from the bathroom.
The guard heaved a sigh of relief.
"His majesty wanted to see you and there were some others too. They want to meet you as soon as you wake up."
"Call all of them after one hour. No one should disturb me till then." Pablo replied.
"As you wish." The guard closed the door and went away.
After fifteen minutes, Pablo came out of the bathroom, being all fresh and clean.
"I need some new clothes."
Pablo was wearing the same clothes as he was wearing when he was fighting. They were stinking.
"Check the cupboard. The King gave you all kinds of clothes." Cupid said.
Pablo smiled. "Now he is acting like a king."
Pablo opened the cupboard and as Cupid said, it was filled with all kinds of clothes.
Nevertheless, Pablo just wanted a simple dress for him.
He just chose a shirt and pants.
After that, Pablo sat on the bed.
"I want something to eat."
"There is a bell beside you." Cupid gestured towards the table beside the bed.
Pablo looked and smiled even more.
There was a round bell on the table. The one which is used on the reception table of hotels.
Pablo pressed the bell without a second thought and in just a second, a guard came.
"What do you want, sir detective?" He asked.
"Bring me some food. I haven’t eaten properly for many days. Make it fast."
"As you say."
The guard went away and Pablo waited for a while.
In just five minutes, two servants came with a tray of cuisines.
They kept it on the big table inside the room and stood there.
Pablo got up from his bed and began eating.
Cupid floated beside him without saying anything and Pablo continued enjoying the taste.
After fifteen minutes, Pablo was finally done eating his fill and the servants went away.
Pablo came back on the bed and Cupid stayed beside him.
"Angel," Pablo said.
"Yes?"
"Are you angry at me?" He asked.
Cupid blinked. "You care about my feelings?"
"Of course not."
Cupid rolled her eyes. "Then why even bother asking if I am angry or not."
"Because I want you to do something for me. If you are angry you might throw some tantrums."
"What do you want?"
"You will do it?"
"Just tell the damn thing!"

Pablo laughed. "Alright. Alright. Keep your diary ready."
"My diary is always ready. And if you are planning to do something with it, it’s not for your personal use. Forget it."
"Listen first. I want you to write what I am about to say in your diary."
"What? Why? My diary is a record of your doings. It’s for the Gods to read."
Pablo smiled.
Cupid frowned.
"Wait. Do you perhaps want to.."
"Yes. That’s exactly what I want."
"That’s not a good idea, Pablo. You are taking them lightly. They must have already planned a way to get back at you. Think again."
"I have already thought about it. Just listen to what I am saying. This will be…"
Pablo cleared his throat and he was finally ready.
"My message to the Gods."
