NOVPUBThe next day arrived and Pablo was asleep on the single couch beside the bed.
KNOCK!
KNOCK!
The door of the room was knocked and that was enough sound for Pablo to wake up.
He stood up from the couch and…
THUD!
He fell down.
"What the fcuk is here?"
’Your gloves.’ Cupid answered and Pablo faced the whole recap of the previous night.
"Right. I forgot. What a mess."
Pablo looked around the room and the whole floor was filled with gloves. There were gloves above gloves.
He ignored it.
"I am coming in five minutes." He shouted.
The knocks on the door stopped and he walked towards Sera.
He shook her. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
"Wake up. I will go away."
Sera jolted. She was awake.
’This is getting old now.’
"Get ready. We are going. And store all the gloves in this."
Pablo gave her an empty bracelet and Sera left the bed.
She asked Andrezj to freshen her and the male Angel did that.
She then began collecting the gloves all around the room and Andrezj helped her with that as well.
’I had a hard time explaining Andre last night.’ Cupid spoke.
’What do you mean?’ Pablo didn’t get her.
’He was asking how you were able to copy the gloves as well. He didn’t know about your Ego and he was curious. He is getting more curious about you as days are passing.’
’Let him be. I don’t care. Do whatever you want.’
Pablo went to the bathroom and freshened up.
He took thirty minutes to do everything.
He took a long shower, he wore nice clothes and there were also some perfumes in the room and he used the best smelling one.
Sera was ready with her face covered and Pablo was surprised that the King didn’t ask him why her face was covered.
It was good for him though.
Anyway, both of them were ready and Pablo finally opened the door of the room.
A guard was standing outside.
"Let’s go." Pablo said and the guard started walking.
But Pablo first went to Lee’s room and picked up his two original suits of Demonite and Kevlar.
They were on the bed and Pablo knew they were original as these two were the only suits present in the room.
Lee was asleep on the same chair he was working last night and Pablo didn’t disturbed him.
He stored the suits inside his bracelet and left Lee’s room.
The guard was waiting for him and Pablo was finally ready to go.
The guard started walking as Pablo and Sera both followed him.
And soon, the guard brought them to the exit door of the castle.
He stopped there though.
"You both can go ahead, sir and ma’am. My job ends here." He said.
Pablo nodded and opened the door of the castle.
Then with Sera, he finally stepped foot outside the castle.
The door was closed behind him and Pablo saw the two guards whom he met when he came to the castle.
The guards also recognised him and this time, they bowed their heads.
"Happy to see that you survived, sir. I didn’t know you were the real deal." One guard said.
Pablo smiled and walked forward.
Sera did the same.
On both sides of Pablo, a huge crowd was gathered and Pablo knew it would be like this.
The King must have told everyone that a detective had come and he had something that could cure the mist.
The mist had made the residents of the Glory city pissed and they badly wanted someone to finish it.
So it was natural they wanted to see their savior.
"End the mist, detective."
"We all are counting on you."
"Kill it."
The people cheered and Pablo waved his hand with a smile.
’Did you know that there will be this many people that’s why you wore nice clothes?’ Cupid asked.
’Yes. I had a hunch it would be like this.’
Pablo waved his hands all around the crowd and kept walking forward.
’Good thing that fat man is dead. He would have confused the King by telling me I am a slave supplier.’
’Yes. But there are those two guards at the entrance of the city.’ Cupid said.
’I know. I will deal with them. If they create a problem, they will die.’ Pablo knew what to do. He won’t let anyone jeopardize his mission.
Cupid stopped talking.
The crowd was on Pablo’s left and right side. There were borders made of a rope to stop the crowd from coming near Pablo and no one dared to jump the rope to come near him as well.
The path in front of him was empty.
There was no one. No soldiers, no King, no Dukes.
Though, there were two things in front of him.
Horses.
’Must be for me and Sera.’
Pablo kept walking forward and stopped just near the Horse.
One horse was white and one horse was black.
Sera was behind him and he looked at her.
"I’ll take the black one." He said.
Sera obliged and went towards the white horse.
"Andre, help me. If this horse acts funny, kill it." Sera ordered and with no effort, she mounted the horse.
After Sera, Pablo sat on the horse as well.
Pablo’s and Sera’s back was facing the castle and Pablo was in the front.
’Now the troops will come.’
THUMP!
THUMP!
THUMP!
’Just as I said.’
Loud footsteps rang around the castle and the whole crowd focused on a certain spot on the ground.
Pablo turned around to see.
’The door of the castle is small. How will they all come from there?’
THUMP!
THUMP
The footsteps turned louder and Pablo frowned.
’They all are coming together. And the sound is coming from very close. Where are they coming from?’
Pablo looked all around. The main door of the castle from which he came from didn’t open but the footsteps kept getting closer and closer.
"I am so excited to see their army."
"I didn’t know I would live long enough to see another war."
"Just eradicate the mist."
The crowd was excited and hearing them talk Pablo figured one thing. The people knew where the army was coming from.
Pablo looked at them and then he followed their gaze.
’They all are looking at the ground?’
All of them were looking at the spot of the ground just a little far from the main door of the castle.
’Don’t tell me. Of course.’
Pablo finally understood the scene and he couldn’t say he didn’t like it.
THUMP!
THUMP!
The sound of the footsteps were the loudest this time and then…
FRILL!
The spot of the ground on which everyone had their eyes on, opened.
It was a wide door and from that very same spot on the ground…
The army came out.
’Nice. Coming out of the ground sets a good example of power and fear.’
’How so?’ Cupid asked.
Pablo’s lips curled up as the thousands of soldiers marched forward.
’It’s the Army coming out of hell.’
