"It was you?"
Pablo asked for confirmation. He was sure he didn't need the confirmation but the King accepted something big.
"Yes. It was me who ordered the destruction of the slums." The King said in clear words again.
"Why are you telling me this, my lord?"
"Because I know you hate the slums as well."
'Hmm? Where did he get that idea from?'
"Yes. I hate them. They stink. They carry insects. Dead bodies. They should be demolished." Pablo genuinely hated the slums.
"Exactly and you also told me my decision of destroying the slum wasn't bad. Right?"
"Yes. It wasn't bad. There should be no slums."
"And what do you think about its residents?" The King asked, staring at Pablo.
'He wants to hear a particular answer from me. Fine. I'll play along.'
"They should be eradicated as well." Pablo gave the answer and the King broke into a smile.
