THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE 504 Alter Ego

Garth looked around. But he didn't find anyone. He consoled himself saying that it was just a dream. He took a deep breath and slept.

But no matter how much he tried, he couldn't sleep. That whispery voice was like a demon that was hunting his peaceful night.

"d.a.m.n it!!!"

He couldn't sleep anymore. So he sat on his bed in anger. He a.s.sa.s.sinated many people before. But he never cared about it. But this particular a.s.sa.s.sination is hurting his heart like h.e.l.l.

Calm down!

I need to calm myself down.

With this thought in his mind, he sat cross legged and closed his eyes. He went to meditation pose and forced himself to calm down.

"You are a sinner!" , At that time that very same whisper rang in his mind. Garth jolted and hastily opened his eyes.

"Who is that?" , He shouted as he looked around furiously. His heartbeat was getting louder and louder. He could even hear his own heartbeat without any obstacles. He didn't know when, but his face was enveloped with sweat. In fact, his entire body was sweating.

"You are a sinner!" , That voice rang out once again, "You killed a person. And some innocents are going to take the punishment for your actions!"

"Who are you exactly?" , Garth was about to lose his mind now. He was about to go insane.

At that time a person appeared in front of him. This person looked at Garth with disgust, disappointment and hatred. Garth looked at the face of this person and was completely stupefied. Because the face of the person who came looked exactly like him. Both Garth and that person looked identical. What's even more insane is that both of them were in the same outfit.

"Who...what are you?" , Garth asked in shock.

"Me?" , That another Garth said, "How should I put it? I am you. And you are me!"

"What's that supposed to mean?" , Garth asked in astonishment.

"I don't know how exactly I should explain you." , That another Garth said, "You can consider me as your Alter Ego!"

"Alter Ego?" , Garth was stunned. Since when did the alter ego started to appear in front of the real person? He didn't understand anything.

"It doesn't matter." , That alter ego said, "And I don't want to waste my time in explaining it to a disgusting person like you."

"Di-disgusting?" , The word "disgusting" coming out of his own alter ego made Garth awkward. He said, "I don't understand!"

"You have killed so many people in the past. Even though I was disappointed, I didn't care much." , That alter ego said, "But this time, some innocents are going to take the responsibility for your sin! If you are not a sinner, then what?"

Garth was stunned. But he said, "So what? Even if they are going to take the responsibility, they will be taken care by the G.o.d! The G.o.d sent a message saying that he is going to give "Moksha" for their sacrifices. You call yourself my alter ego. Then you should know by now what exactly that means, right?"

"Moksha?" , That alter ego said, "Maybe you want the Moksha. But do you think that those innocents truly wanted Moksha? Definitely not. They came here from the lower realm to make a better future. They aren't here for moksha. And even if they want moksha, let me ask you a question. If you were in their place, would you accept the death with the stain of "Murderer of the son of the City Lord" on your head?"

Garth was stunned. He wanted to counter his alter ego's question with another question. But he truly didn't know what exactly he should say now.

"And most importantly " , That alter ego said, "Did you honestly believe in that Pope's words, when he said that the G.o.d is going to give them Moksha? What if he lied? What if the Church is using you for their dirty schemes? What if there exist no such thing as G.o.d?"

"G.o.d exists!" , Garth said angrily.

"How naive?" , That alter ego said, "If G.o.d really existed, then why didn't he save those innocents from dying an unjust death? If G.o.d really exists, then why don't he show up? These all are the lame excuses! You want to use the name of the G.o.d to console yourself."

"Shut up!" , Garth shouted.

"Deep down you know that you have committed a sin!" , That alter ego said, "But you don't want to accept your sin!"

"Shut Up!" , Garth shouted once again.

"You don't have the guts to accept your crimes!" , That alter ego said, "You are a sinner!"

"SHUT YOUR f.u.c.kING MOUTH!!!" , Garth shouted loudly.

"Sinner!"

"Sinner!"

"Sinner!"

"Sinner!"

"I SAID SHUT YOUR G.o.dd.a.m.n MOUTH!!!" , Garth couldn't take it. But the word "sinner" kept on ringing in his head.

The entire night, Garth was devastated mentally by his own alter ego. Because of the mental torture, Garth couldn't even relax a bit. Needless to say, a soundless sleep.

And as he was experiencing h.e.l.l, he didn't know when, but the sun rose from the east and another fresh day began.

Garth couldn't take it anymore and decided to go to the church and find a way to get rid of his alter ego's torture.

"Oh! Now you want to go to those liars who does dirty things under the name of G.o.d?" , That alter ego said, "You want to envelop yourself in another lie? You keep on disappointing me again and again."

"Sigh!" That alter ego said, "I was trying to put you on a right path. But you still want to go to those evildoers? Why don't you listen to me, your true self?"

"Shut your f.u.c.king mouth!" , Garth yelled loudly. He completely neglected the fact that he was in the public. He ignored the weird gazes from the public as he shouted. His desire to get rid of the alter ego was so huge that he didn't care what the public was thinking about him.

He honestly doesn't know why exactly his alter ego popped up out of nowhere. But it was truly irritating. This alter ego didn't let him sleep the entire night. All it kept on whispering "sinner" in his mind. He didn't know what caused this.

He didn't know that two people were following him so casually that everyone who looked at them never get the impression that they were tailing a person.

They were none other than Arjun and Rick. Both of them gave Garth a red coloured pill. The name of this pill was "Inner Demon Pill".

And as the name suggests, the one who consumes the pill would experience a horrible encounter with their alter ego. And the subject on which they will have conversation is the thing that made one feel guilty the most just before consuming the pill.
