Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil-Chapter 256: Not Scared

The Demon finally arrived in the Glory city.

He had landed just in front of the King’s castle then he walked towards Pablo.

Pablo remained standing in the same place and the Demon stood beside him.

The soldiers, the high dukes, Quilin and Tank, all found fear trembling in their eyes.

A towering being stood in front of them and by all means, it wasn’t Human.

"Who… What are you?" Jamal asked, gripping his swords.

They all stepped back as well, creating distance from the Demon.

"Tell them, Human. Tell them the whole story." The Demon won’t explain himself so he gave the job to Pablo.

And Pablo would oblige it.

"Listen to me carefully," Pablo spoke, his face devoid of expressions. "Don’t speak in between until I am finished."

With a deep breath, Pablo explained everything to everyone.

He told them how Socrates was dead long ago, the mist wasn’t the doing of Cannibals, the mist belonged to the Demon and how he inhaled it and came in his true form.

Pablo also told them that the Demon drank his blood and he was the one who made all of them fly.

Pablo was just about to end the explanation by telling the Demon’s purpose but the Demon himself shared the last part.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

"I am here to kill all the Royals."

The Demon’s voice sent shivers to everyone’s spine and the surroundings were already reeking with blood.

The explanation was finished and everyone knew by now what would be taking place in a few moments.

But before that, Jamal glared at Pablo.

"What kind of detective are you? You couldn’t even figure out if that chief was a Human or not?"

Pablo gazed at Jamal.

"What kind of high duke are you? You couldn’t even end a Demon when he was at his weakest five years ago."

"That and that are two different things." Jamal argued.

"Shut up, both of you. It’s no time to fight." Rower yelled.

"That’s right. Last time it took all the military to stop this guy. Ask the King to call for them again."

Someone spoke. It came from behind Pablo.

Pablo turned around and for the first time he saw both Quilin and Tank.

Quilin didn’t make that much impression on Pablo but Tank surely caught his eye.

"Are you from the…" Pablo spoke but he couldn’t finish.

"Yes. And there is no time for introduction. Inform the King."

’Someone from the Abyssal Butchers is here. Must be for this Vampire. They both should be strong.’

Tank vanished from his spot and appeared near the high dukes and the soldiers.

Now only Quilin and Pablo were left near the Demon.

"So you are saying it was you all along?" Quilin asked the demon directly.

Pablo liked the guts of the Vampire.

The Demon glanced at Quilin.

"Yes. And ask anything again, I will rip your heart."

Quilin sighed.

"This is a mess. I am temporarily changing my mission."

Quilin also vanished and arrived near the high dukes.

"You can go back to your Kingdom. You will die if you stay here." Jamal said.

"I want to kill the King and I won’t go back without doing it. Also, this Demon won’t stop after destroying this city. He needs to die."

"Suit yourself."

They both stopped talking and now the whole army of the Forza kingdom stood in front of the Demon.

Quilin wasn’t from the same kingdom but he would also fight the Demon.

STEP!

STEP!

Some footsteps resounded from behind the Demon and Pablo.

They both turned their heads around and saw the source.

The Demon showed no reaction but Pablo for sure showed something.

’So he is still alive.’

A man walked towards Pablo and the Demon and Pablo knew who that was.

It was Adolf Hustler.

Hustler also saw Pablo and he shook his head.

The Demon did nothing and Hustler walked past Pablo.

But before completely walking away, he muttered :

"This is not Black rank anymore."

Pablo gave a slow nod and Hustler carried on walking.

"So the blood worked. You are one strong man." Quilin said, watching Hustler.

There was no hole in Hustler’s chest anymore, his wounds were healed and the man looked as good as new.

’So he also drank the blood of a Vampire.’ Pablo understood what Quilin meant by those words. But he didn’t understand what Hustler was doing here. His black rank assignment shouldn’t be the same as Pablo?

Nevertheless, Pablo would focus on other things later.

The Demon was the priority.

Hustler ignored Quilin and stood with the others as well.

"I have called the military. They’ll send as many people as they can. They will be here any minute." Tank said.

"Call others from your division too. Heck, call all of them." Rower suggested.

Tank furrowed his brows. "Who made you a high duke? You know I can’t do that. Only the King has that kind of authority."

"Right. I have to call the King. Keep an eye if the Demon starts attacking out of nowhere." Rower took out his Receiver.

Everyone kept an eye on the Demon, afraid that he might attack Rower to stop him from talking to the King.

"Don’t worry." The Demon said. "I won’t move until you all are ready to fight. Gather all the heads you can. I will wait."

Every time the Demon spoke, all of them flinched. His voice wasn’t that of a Human after all. It was filled with a horrifying texture.

Rower gulped and called the King.

"Your highness, there is a Dem-"

"I know. And I have called them. All the available Generals, Commanders and Abyssal Butchers will be coming. This time, kill the Demon for good."

"We will try."

BEEP!

The call ended and Rower relayed his talks with the King.

"Now we wait. If the Demon stands at his word then we will win." Boulder said.

"Don’t get your hopes up. He is at full strength this time. Five years ago, he was the weakest and yet he destroyed half of the city, who knows what will happen now." Rower stated.

"All that is good and fine, but why is the detective standing beside him? Is he too scared to move?" Xavier spoke for the first time since he came back.

"Of course he is scared. Even we are scared." Jamal replied.

"No. He is not scared." Someone refuted Jamal.

Jamal would have retorted but the person who refuted him was none other than the Demon.

"This man is not scared." The Demon said again.

"Then?" Hustler asked.

The Demon grinned.

"He is Terrified."
