"Your mother is a whore."
Hustler called Pablo’s mother a whore and this came out of nowhere.
It was like a fight between children who start abusing when they run out of insults.
"My mother is dead." Pablo said.
’And this kid’s mother was a prostitute so you are not wrong.’ Pablo thought about Void Grief’s mother.
"Even if she is dead, she is a whore." Hustler was dead set on declaring Pablo’s mother a whore.
"Anything else?" Pablo wasn’t fazed at all.
"You are not angry?" Hustler asked.
At this, Pablo stepped towards Hustler and brought his mouth closer to his ears.
"I killed my mother myself."

Pablo moved back and with Flashy, he proceeded his walk towards the back of the building.
Hustler was left behind and Flashy turned around to see him.
He saw Hustler standing still on the same spot and his eyes were on Pablo’s back.
"What did you say to him, Boss? He looks stunned."
"Just the truth." Pablo replied and increased his walking speed.
"Where is Draxus?" He asked, looking around.
"I don’t know. Maybe he is with Hustler." Flashy guessed.
"Turn around and confirm." Pablo ordered and Flashy looked at Hustler again.
"Yes. Draxus is with him. They are talking with each other."
"Alright. Now stop looking."
Flashy did the same and now both of them were looking straight ahead.
"What will happen today, Boss? What do you think?" Flashy asked. He wanted a small talk.
"We will see soon enough. Don’t talk just for the sake of talking."
"Okay." Flashy agreed and shut his mouth.
"You are too hard on him." Cupid commented.
’Choose your words carefully, Angel. I am not ’hard’ on him at all.’
"Wha-I didn’t mean that hard. Why do you have such a dirty mind?"
Pablo laughed. ’Just kidding. And I need to teach him some things. He has his revenge as well. He needs to toughen up if he wants to fulfill it.’
"All of you guys have to take revenge. Do you all not have any other motives? What will you all do after your revenge is over?"
’Then someone else will come to take revenge from us. The people we’ll kill along the way, their close ones would want revenge. It’s a cycle.’
"Yes. And if you know that then why not force Draxus to stop his revenge? He was in the wrong here.
Your sister was raped so you are allowed to take revenge. Flashy faced atrocities by his step siblings so his revenge is justified as well.
But Draxus, it was his parents who were the bad guys. His revenge has no base. It’s a facade. You should stop him."
’I already told you, Angel. I’ll help him. I don’t give a shit about who was wrong or right. If Draxus became the King then I’ll be at the top here. That’s all there is.’
"Are you even thinking about how to eradicate evil from this world? That is your main job here."
’Yeah. I have a thing or two for doing my job. I just need power and information to act on it. I’ll manage. You don’t worry and just keep writing.’
"You are indecipherable." Cupid stopped talking and wrote things in her diary.
Pablo and Flashy walked for a few more minutes and they finally saw a metal gate.
It had huge walls around it so they couldn’t see what was behind it.
But they knew it was the entrance of the garden. It was written above the gate in bold letters after all.
"What kind of garden has an entrance like this? I have a bad feeling, Boss."
’Me too.’
"Don’t worry. I know there won’t be anything too deadly. Probably. And we just have to figure out what is what."
Pablo and Flashy were standing just in front of the metal gate and soon, many more people joined.
All of them were wearing the same uniform. A green coloured tracksuit.
"Let’s go inside."
"I bet there will be good food."
"I hope it’s not a test."
"Open the door."
"Let’s go!"
Everyone was excited and nervous at the same time and Pablo sighed.
"Here goes nothing."
He pushed the metal gate and the garden was in front of all of them.
"What the hell?!" Everyone exclaimed.
They all entered the garden and all of them were shocked.
"How the fcuk is this even a garden?"
"This is a wasteland!"
"Where is that Diablo?"
The garden was not a garden at all.
It was plain brown ground. It was big and wide in size but there was nothing that spelled even the G of a garden.
A medium sized circle was drawn in the middle of the ground and around the circle, a little far, chairs were placed. All the chairs were empty though.
There was also a stage present in front of all the hundred candidates and no one was on the stage at the moment.
Pablo carefully looked around and thought of various things.
He looked at the circle in the middle of the ground, the chairs placed around the circle and the stage.
Pablo raced his mind for all the possibilities and in the end, he finally reached a conclusion.
"I was right after all."
"Hm? Do you know something, Boss?" Flashy asked.
"You said there will be a feast. But I don’t see anything like that. How are you right?" Cupid also asked.
And Pablo answered both of them at once.
"There will be a feast today, Flashy. But the thing is…"
Pablo turned around and stared at the metal entrance of the garden.
"It won’t be for us."
Flashy and Cupid asked some more questions but Pablo didn’t reply to any of them.
His eyes were fixed on the entrance of the garden.
All the candidates were already inside but it seemed Pablo was waiting for something else to arrive.
And something else really arrived.
Sound of laughter, chatting and other things were heard and from far away, many people were seen coming towards the garden.
Everyone turned their heads towards the entrance of the garden. They all were curious.
THUMP!
Another sound came and it was a loud one.
But it came from the stage placed on the ground.
Everyone averted their eyes from the entrance and looked at the stage.
There, they all saw two familiar faces.
"Hello, everyone. How are you all doing?" It was Diablo.
He and Graham were on the stage and no one saw how they arrived.
But they all had questions.
"What is going on here?"
"What is the deal with this ’shame in the name of a garden’ place?"
"Tell us!"
Everyone asked questions and Diablo, like a good sport, came forward.
"Sure. I will give it to you straight. Today, you all will be doing…"
Diablo spread his arms and bellowed the purpose of the garden.
"A fight to the Death!!"
