A horizontal line appeared on the man’s neck and a stream of blood spewed out.
Before more blood could come out, Pablo threw the man inside his own carriage.
The man had his eyes wide open and Pablo closed them with his hands.
"Tell your son he had a cowardly father." Pablo said and confirmed that the man was really dead.
He wiped his hands on the man’s clothes and finally turned around.
"Let’s go."
Pablo started walking and Flashy followed beside him.
There was someone else with them as well and Pablo waited for that person to speak.
"That was not needed at all." It was Cupid. She began her rant. "You could have stayed quiet inside the carriage if you didn’t want anyone to know about your accomplices. If you have never talked then that man wouldn’t have to die. Are you understanding this?"
’I know. I could have stayed quiet and let the man live. But even if I had stayed quiet, I would have killed him anyway.’
"Wha-why?" Cupid didn’t get it.
’Because he called me son.’ Pablo revealed.
"That’s it? Just because he called you son out of concern you killed him?"
’Yes. Just like how his wife refused the General to do more work and died, he died just because he called me son. And as he said himself, this world is a mess.’
"No matter what you say. But this time you killed him for no reason. Killing has become your habit now. You can’t stay still without killing someone."
’Took you long enough to understand that.’ Pablo jested. ’And you are overreacting. That man was living a life full of fear. It doesn’t matter whether he is alive or dead. In a sense, I freed him from his guilt and fear.’
"Your thinking is twisted. If it goes on like this then you will receive your punishment very soon. The list of your sins will be judged by the Gods and they will make sure to punish you."
’Oh yeah? Is it only me who is doing sins in this world?’
"No. But you are sent here to remove evil from this world. And if you yourself will commit crimes then how can you remove evil? That’s why to stop you from committing sins, the Gods will punish you in a way that you will fear to commit more crimes."
’Yeah. Do your best.’ Pablo couldn’t care less. He never feared anyone and he would stay like this as long as he lived.
Cupid went silent after that and Pablo focused on further steps.
He looked around and other than him, there were many other people as well.
They were all walking on the road and Pablo figured they all were going to the military as well.
Pablo looked around more and on his right side, he saw a narrow alleyway.
He stopped walking and after making sure no one was looking at him, he slid himself inside the alleyway.
"Draxus," He said. "Come out and walk a hundred steps behind me. No one should know you are with me. That’s all. Come out fast."
"Alright."
FWISH!
Draxus came out from Pablo’s shadow.
"Now I am going. You start walking after ten minutes. We’ll meet at the camp. Later."
Pablo left the alleyway, leaving Draxus behind.
Flashy just followed quietly behind Pablo.
"What about that driver?" Cupid spoke again.
’You are still stuck on that driver? Give me a break.’

"No. I meant what about his body? What if someone saw it? You will be in trouble, right?"
’Not really.’ Pablo was carefree. ’What I can see is that this area is for military things and I don’t think they will bother with a dead body of a middle aged fat man. They will dump it themselves. And even if someone tries to find out who killed the man, I’ll be a military man by then. Don’t worry about that.’
"So you already know you will be accepted in the military."
’If the military here is really as cruel as the people say, then I’ll be accepted in a heartbeat.’
"I hate to say it but you are right here."
Pablo laughed a little and his attention then shifted to the left side of the road.
There were many mansions present but his eyes fell on one particular mansion.
It has the biggest garden and in that garden, he saw more than twenty dogs barking and roaming around.
"Must be that General’s house. But damn, those dogs are beasts. What kind of pedigree are they eating?"
The dogs were green in color and their teeths and body could put even a professional bodybuilder in shame.
[[A/n : Art for these dogs. Here!]]
The dogs were roaming free in the garden, no belt was around their neck and Pablo stared at them with interest.
"Grrrggghhh!!"
Pablo’s brows shot up. "Did they sense my gaze? Impressive."
All the dogs growled at Pablo, even from far. Pablo really liked their keen senses.
He then looked at the name plate placed on the outside of the mansion.
"General Lombard." He read the name and nodded. "I’ll remember it."
After that, he focused on the road ahead that was turning right.
A direction board was flying in the air and it was also showing the arrow to turn right.
Pablo did just that and turned right.
And as soon as he saw the scene in front of him, his mouth went agape.
But he wasn’t alone in that matter.
Everyone who was present there was the same. They all had their eyes wide open.
"So huge." They all exclaimed.
In front of them, a group of buildings stood. Each building equaled the size of a mansion.
It was like a stadium or a big college or the white house, all in all, the place was huge.
Pablo stood on his toes but he saw no end of the property.
There were huge walls erected around the settlement and only two doors were placed in the front.
Two booths were present on the side of the two doors.
Above the two doors, a board was placed. One board read ’Recommended’ and the other read, ’Scouted’.
Pablo figured the left door was for the people who had a recommendation and the right one for the people whom the military scouted themselves.
After discovering the main things, he started walking towards the left booth.
He didn’t focus on other people. He just wanted to go inside the camp.
"Hey, Boss." Flashy spoke, walking beside Pablo.
"What?" Pablo asked.
"You sent Draxus away from you because you don’t want anyone to know that he is with you. But what about me? Is it fine for me to stay with you?" Flashy was thinking about this since Pablo gave Draxus that order. He wasn’t sure why Pablo didn’t send him away as well.
However, Flashy was thinking too much. Pablo didn’t send Flashy away from him because of just one simple reason.
"You are an idiot, that’s why." Pablo revealed the reason. "I can’t afford you acting alone and messing up everything."
"Oh. Haha. Makes sense. I was jealous for nothing." Flashy revealed something as well.
’Thought so. Jealousy is really bad. Especially among a group.’
Pablo didn’t want any jealousy among his human resources so he decided to do something.
To make someone feel special, to show someone that they are important, a secret should be shared among them.
And Pablo did just that.
"Flashy," He said. "Do you know why I want to take revenge from the military?"
"Um.. no."
"I want to kill five men. Not even kill, I want to butcher them. Because you see, one day, those five military men barged inside my house and…"
Pablo jerked his head at Flashy and his expressions were that of rage. He clenched his jaw, he gritted his teeths and finally revealed that the five military men…
"Gangraped my little sister in front of me."
