Pablo predicted that after the candidates would get their assignments, ’Friend’ would become just a mere word for them.
And obviously, it went above Cupid’s head.
"What are you even talking about and how can you be so sure?" She asked.
Pablo shrugged. ’I am just guessing. And from my experience, I have come to know that my guesses are never wrong.’
"Whatever. And you have spent the entire night of your rest by talking and doing push ups. The sun is already up."
Sun light was coming from under the door and Pablo just gave a nod.
’I haven’t met anyone from the Abyssal Butchers yet. I wish one member would come here today.’
THUK!
THUK!
Two knocks came from Pablo’s door.
’Well that was fast. I wished a few seconds ago and they are already here.’
"How do you know they are from that division?" Cupid asked.
’I am kidding. I don’t know who is behind the door.’ Pablo was just messing around but since someone was on the door, he had to open it.
He got up from the bed and opened the door.
He was not on his guard as he knew he wouldn’t get attacked as the first thing in the morning.
Outside the door, a man wearing a green uniform was standing and he was rather small and skinny.
"What is it?" Pablo asked.
"Take these clothes and get ready. Come out in the garden behind this building." The man handed Pablo some clothes and moved to room number ninety nine.
’He is starting from the last room. So I was the first to receive this.’ Pablo looked at the clothes and it was a green colored track suit.
The small man had the same set of clothes with him and he was handing them to all the candidates.
THUMP!
A door opened with force and someone came out with heavy steps.
Pablo looked there and he was familiar with the person.
’Guess he saw his wall just now.’
It was Adolf Hustler who came out and he was angry.
He walked towards Pablo and Pablo decided to entertain him for a while.
Hustler came and stood in front of Pablo.
"How the hell did you enter my room?" Hustler asked the main question right away.
"What happened?" Pablo asked in return.
"It was you, right? The one who left the message on my wall with blood. You were inside my room last night. How? And why?"
’So he really saw the message. He reacted the same way I expected.’
"It was me. You are right." Pablo accepted.
"How did you come inside my room?" Hustler asked the same question again.
"Why would I tell you that? Stay in suspense, bitch."
"You bastard."
Pablo smiled. "I was inside your room last night. I picked up the dagger kept beside you and wrote that message with my blood. And instead of being angry, you should be grateful that I just left a message. I would have outright killed you right there and then."
Hustler gritted his teeths. Pablo was inside his room last night and he was sleeping. If Pablo wanted he could have killed Hustler in his sleep.
"You can say that I let you live. I spared your life. Now go and enjoy it." Pablo mocked Hustler and he did that with pride.
Hustler clenched his jaw. He glared at Pablo but the next second, he took a deep breath and called back his calm self.
"You made a mistake. You should have killed me while you had the chance. Now my turn will come and I swear on my bloodline…"
Hustler brought his face closer to Pablo and finished his threat.
"I won’t be kind like you to spare you."
Hustler and Pablo maintained eye contact for a few more seconds until Hustler turned around and started walking towards his room again.
"For a second, I thought he was going to kiss me."
Pablo kept his eyes on Hustler and made sure to watch him going inside his room.
After Hustler went inside his room, Pablo also closed the door.
"You should have really killed him in his sleep." Cupid said.
Pablo chuckled. ’Can’t believe you are telling me to kill someone.’
"I don’t want you to die. He might pose a problem to you. Didn’t you see how angry he was? He will surely come back to bite you."
’That he will. But he sure is weak in judging people.’
"How so?"
’Well, he called me kind.’
"Right. I agree. He can’t judge people at all."
Pablo laughed and removed his clothes.
"But I am sure he is strong. When he comes to confront you, what will you do?"
’I will fight. Simple as that. He must be strong but I will fight.’
"Would you lose?"
Pablo turned his head at Cupid and smiled.
’Nah. I’d win.’
After saying all that, Pablo went inside the bathroom to get ready for the day.
Cupid didn’t follow Pablo this time as she had no interest in seeing him naked.
Though, she was standing just outside the bathroom.
After thirty minutes, Pablo came out, bare chested.
Cupid was floating in front of him and she was staring at him.
’What? You want to get some fuck or something?’
"Huh? No way!" Cupid’s face was all red and Pablo couldn’t help but laugh.
’Then why are you staring at me?’
"It’s just, I was thinking that in your previous life you lived with a face that wasn’t yours and now in this life as well. You are living inside someone else’s body. You didn’t get something of your own again. Fate is cruel towards you."
’That’s all?’ Pablo shook his head. ’I am over that now. Now what I want to have, I take. A life with no regrets.’
Pablo wore the tracksuit given by the military and left the room.
As soon as he stepped foot outside, something came into his view.
"Bossss!!" It was a Flashy.
He tried to hug Pablo but the vision from last night came in front of Pablo’s eyes.
Pablo remembered how Flashy was caressing his little brother and that made him dodge his hug.
"Just hello is fine. No touching."
"Alright. I guess?" Flashy didn’t understand but he agreed anyway.
Cupid floated behind Pablo and Pablo started his walk.
He took the first step but he heard someone approaching him from behind.
But before Pablo could step sideways…
BAM!
Someone bumped at Pablo and Pablo didn’t even flinch from his place.
’I know it. This body is strong. Then why doesn’t it work when I do push ups?’ Pablo’s physical strength had increased since he had awakened a black ranked Ego. But last night it took a toll on him to do a thousand push ups. That didn’t make sense.
"Don’t forget you also have a white ranked Ego. And I think, when you attack someone and when you defend yourself, your strong physique, which you got from Black rank, acts.
And when you do something like exercise and other casual things your physique, which is Void’s white rank physique, acts.
While doing push ups it was Void’s physique and right now, when you got hit, Pablo Castillo’s physique is up for the job. I may not know many things but I certainly know about Egoes."
Cupid gave a long explanation and Pablo understood it as well.
And now that his confusion was out of the way he looked at the culprit behind the collision.
’Of course.’ Pablo knew it.
Hustler was standing in front of Pablo and he was the one who tried to make Pablo fall.
"What do you want?" Pablo asked.
Hustler didn’t reply right away but after three seconds, he opened his mouth and said the most randomest thing of all time…
"Your mother is a whore."
