Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil

Pablo had his hand on Nike's shoulder and commanded his system to use Mimesis Malefica.

But he forgot one thing.

[ You can't copy any Ego right now. ]

[ You already have two copied Egoes. ]

'Shit. I am so used to using this I forget about this.'

Pablo removed his hand from Nike's shoulder and Nike watched him with excited eyes.

Pablo sighed. "We will see your Ego tomorrow. I can't do it right now."

Nike's eyes dropped. "That's alright. I guess."

"Don't be sad. I will tell tomorrow but you can try to figure it out yourself."

Nike nodded.

Pablo then looked at Hena.

"And you should have known your Ego by now?"

"I know it. Kind of." Hena replied.

"What is it?" Pablo asked.

"Whatever I want I can make it happen. But I just don't know what the conditions are for that."

Pablo nodded. "I will tell yours tomorrow too. Now go back to your rooms."

The slaves nodded and left the room.

Though, before leaving, Hena turned around to have a last look at Pablo and then she shook his head.

She finally left the room after that and Pablo was left with confusion.

"What was that?"

Draxus smiled. He said nothing.

"She must be looking at me." Flashy said.

Pablo and Draxus both jerked their heads at him.

"I am kidding, man. You don't have to be so fierce."

Flashy went silent and Pablo focused on Draxus.

"We will attack Kony tomorrow. I want you to spy on him. See what he does, where he goes. Tell me all about his day. Alright?"

"As you wish."

"Now go."

Draxus obliged and went inside his shadow.

After that, he left the room.

Now only Flashy and Pablo were inside.

"Do you need an invitation? Get out." Pablo iterated.

"But this is my room." Flashy cried.

"Right. Well, I will stay the night here. You will sleep on the floor. That's final. Now bring me something to eat."

Pablo ordered and lied on the bed.

Flashy wanted to retort but he couldn't find anything to say.

"Fine."

He stood up and went to find some food.

The room had no kitchen as the military had prepared a canteen for the Abyssal Butchers. Whenever they wanted, they could go and eat there for free.

Pablo remained lying and closed his eyes.

After thirty minutes, Flashy came back to the room.

He had stored the food inside his bracelet and after setting some on a plate, he gave it to Pablo.

Flashy took some for himself as well and like good friends, they ate together.

Then, Pablo remained lying on the bed and Flashy on the floor.

No one came to disturb them and soon, the night arrived.

They remained sleeping but after a few minutes, Pablo's shadow did some movements.

"Czar." A whisper arrived.

Pablo's shadow was doing that.

"Czar." One more and this time, Pablo shot opened his eyes.

"Draxus?" He asked.

"Yes. I have some news. I am taking you inside the shadow."

"Hmm." Pablo gave the permission and Draxus sucked Pablo inside.

The bed was empty now and Flashy remained asleep on the floor.

"What is it?" Pablo asked.

"The first Marshal still doesn't know that Dilinger isn't his only soldier who is dead."

Pablo nodded. "He will learn about it tomorrow. Probably at the time of attendance."

"Yes. But Kony figured out Whitey and Jeffrey are missing."

"Hmm? Then why hasn't any commotion taken place yet?"

"You won't believe it, czar."

"Just tell me the damn thing. I just woke up."

"Right. So just like you said, I was following Kony. As soon as the first Marshal finished the training, Kony and one more soldier were looking around as if they were searching for something. Then Kony spoke out loud that he was looking for Whitey and Jeffrey."

"So Whitey, Jeffery, Kony and one more soldier gather at night to do something? Was Ted also with them?"

"No. Ted wasn't there. Only Kony, Whitey, Jeffrey and that one soldier gather every night."

"Tell me everything."

Draxus nodded and began sharing everything he saw.

"Kony and that one soldier looked for Whitey and Jeffrey but they couldn't find them anywhere. Then they guessed that they must be dead just like Dilinger.

The other soldiers suggested that Kony should share this with the Marshal but Kony slapped that soldier for saying that."

"Why?"

"Because if Kony and the other soldier go to the first Marshal to reveal the disappearance of Whitey and Jeffrey, then the Marshal will ask them how did they know about their disappearance. And since they can't lie to their Marshal, they would reveal why they were looking for Whitey and Jeffrey at night."

"Hmm. So the first Marshal doesn't know that Whitey, Jeffrey, Kony and one more soldier go somewhere at night. It's a secret." Pablo said.

"Yes. So Kony and that one soldier decided not to tell anything to their Marshal and only those two went to their usual destination."

"What's that destination?"

Draxus smiled. "They go to have an orgy with…"

"With?" Pablo wanted to know and Draxus finally revealed :

"With the Second Marshal's wife."

Pablo's eyes widened.

Draxus nodded.

"I was shocked myself, czar. The second Marshal's wife was cheating her husband with Jeffrey, Kony, Whitey and that one soldier."

"That's a lot to take in. No pun intended." Pablo replied.

Draxus shrugged. He was just telling what he saw.

But just then, Pablo remembered something.

'I saw nothing like that in the memories of both Whitey and Jeffrey. I couldn't miss something like that. There was not one instance of them duking it out with the second Marshal's wife.'

Pablo had seen Whitey and Jeffrey's memories and they had no orgy. So was Draxus lying?

Pablo couldn't even ask Draxus about it. No one knows Pablo could see the memories of people.

"Is that all you saw?" Pablo asked further.

Draxus shook his head. "I have seen something more."

"Tell me."

"Kony and that soldier had their fun at a secluded place and after that, the Marshal's wife disappeared from that place. She probably has an Ego for teleportation.

Only Kony and that soldier were left there and before leaving the place, that other soldier placed his hands on Kony's forehead. Then he did the same thing with his own forehead.

Only after that gesture, they left the place. I don't know what that soldier was doing with that but I assume it must be some kind of Ego related to mind or something.

Anyway, I came here after Kony went inside his assigned room. That's all."

Pablo nodded.

"Good work. Now I know everything. That soldier must have wiped his and Kony's memories of sex. Probably to stay cautious if they get caught by someone who could see memories. Anyway, well done."

Pablo patted Draxus' shoulder and Draxus smiled.

"So what will we do tomorrow?" He asked.

"What else?" Pablo yawned, stretched his hands.

The sleep was still in his eyes but he was awake enough to tell his future plans.

"We'll join their orgy of course."
