"Find the value of X? Do we have to find X or its value?" Flashy asked a stupid thing.
"They mean the same thing. The value of X will be high. And Hustler has killed a lot of people. So if I find the impostor then there is a chance this test will end right there."
"I hope you are right. I am fed up with this." Flashy couldn’t take any more tests.
"Let’s hope so. And pick that up for me." Pablo ordered and Flashy obliged.
He picked something from the ground and gave it to Pablo.
Pablo took it and walked faster towards the fighting place and in ten seconds, he finally reached there.
As soon as he reached near the area, curses increased.
"You bastard!"
"It’s all because of you!"
"I will kill you!"
The hungry men whom Pablo used, saw him and dashed towards him.
They were dying by the hands of Hustler because of Pablo. They were in this mess because of Pablo. They wanted revenge.
"Right. They are here too." Pablo didn’t stop walking.
The men ran towards him and Pablo waited for them to come close.
"Use your copied Ego." Cupid spoke.
’I don’t have them anymore. The Arsenal and the Force vanished a while ago. I only have this for now…’
A man came just in front of Pablo and Pablo waved his hand on the man’s throat.
The next moment, a thin line appeared on the man’s neck.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
THUD!
The man fell on his knees, holding his neck.
Pablo walked past him.
"Stones always work for you, Boss." Flashy said. He was the one who gave the stone to Pablo. Pablo ordered it though.
"Yeah. But it isn’t enough. Many are coming."
More than fifty men were coming towards Pablo and Pablo only had one stone with him. It won’t be enough.
"What now, Boss?" Flashy asked, staying behind Pablo.
"There is only one way out of this." Pablo started running and roamed his eyes around.
He saw what he was looking for and shouted :
"Draxus!"
"Yes!" A reply came right away. Only one shout was needed for Pablo to call Draxus.
Draxus turned his head at Pablo and saw the situation.
He then nodded and vanished.
"What is it, Czar?" Draxus appeared behind Pablo.
"No time for answers." Pablo stopped running. He reached out his hand and held Draxus’ hand.
’Do it system.’
[ Mimesis Malefica in use! ]
[ Hold the Target’s hand for ten seconds! ]
[ Showing you the memories… ]
"What are you doing, Czar? What do you want?"
"Just stay still for ten seconds."
Pablo couldn’t care less about the memories but he had to see them. It was the process.
Pablo already heard about Draxus’ from Draxus himself but since the memories were playing anyway, he decided to give them a watch.
’Hmm?’ Pablo frowned. ’What’s this?’
The memories played inside his mind and as they moved further and further, Pablo’s frown deepened.
’Now this is… unexpected.’ Pablo gawked at Draxus’ face.
"What?" Draxus asked.
"Nothing. We need to have a chat later." Pablo gave a vague answer and before Draxus could ask anything else, ten seconds were up.
[ Ego Successfully Copied! ]
[ Little Life force taken from the Target! ]
[ Ego Rank high! ]
[ You can keep this Ego with you only for three hours! ]
[ Ego’s Rank : Purple ]
[ Copied Ego’s Name : Shadow Slave ]
[ Description : You can now merge with shadows. Any shadows. You and the shadows are one. The shadow is your slave now. ]
Pablo read the description in one second and let go of Draxus’ hand.
"Go. Carry on the killing now. And kill some of these people as well."
Pablo gestured towards the men who were running towards him.
Draxus nodded and disappeared in the shadows.
Pablo started running again and this time towards the enraged men.
If no one stopped then there would be a clash between Pablo and the men.
"What are you doing, Boss? And what was all that? And why are we running towards those men? How can we fight such a mob?" Flashy asked all sorts of questions.
"There is no ’we’ this time, Flashy." Pablo smiled and he began descending under the ground.
"It’s all you this time. Good luck."
Pablo left some parting words for the guy and completely merged with the shadows.
"Boss!" Flashy screamed but the ground didn’t talk.
"Don’t leave me like this. And since when did you learn to do this? They will eat me alive." Flashy yelled some more but he received no reply.
"He is that bastard’s comrade."
"He deserves to die as well."
"Kill him!"
The angry and hungry men made Flashy their new target.
"I should act dead. No. It won’t work. They already saw me. Angh. I don’t even know how to use stones." Flashy wasn’t running anymore. Instead, he ran his mind for all sorts of solutions.
"Alright. Now that it has come to this. I shall deal with it." Flashy became all serious.
He cracked his fingers. His eyes were dead set on the incoming men and when the men reached near him…
"Nope. Running is good." Flashy dropped his seriousness on the pits of hell and bent his legs.
But he was a little too late.
One man standing in the front line grabbed Flashy’s neck.
"Die, bitch." He said and applied pressure.
’Sorry, dad. I am a worthless son.’ Flashy accepted his fate.
SHRILL!
THUD!
THUD!
Some sounds rang on the ground.
Flashy and the man both fell down on the floor.
"I am alive?" Flashy checked his neck and he was alive.
The man who held his neck was no more. He was lying dead in front of him.
Flashy raised his head and the group of men running towards him were falling down one by one.
A black force was moving past them and they were dying.
Flashy noticed the shadow movements and his eyes lit up.
"You saved me, Boss!" He exclaimed.
The group of men running towards Flashy was no more and after killing all of them, the person responsible for that, stood in front of Flashy.
Flashy saw the face of the person and went wide eyed.
"It’s you…"
"Well, technically, I am also your Boss."
"Thank you, Draxus." Flashy thanked the man who was none other than Draxus.
"Here he is."
"Kill him!"
More shouts came as more men noticed Flashy.
They ran towards him and Draxus stood in front of Flashy.
Draxus’ back was in front of Flashy and at that time, Draxus’ back appeared like a mountain to him.
"Don’t worry, slave." Draxus spoke, giving a glance at Flashy.
"I got your back."
