A few days later, order was restored in Kelandil. The casualties in the Colosseum had dealt a heavy blow to the empire.
However, Kaiser The Great had his ways. The Colosseum had now reopened.
At this time, in the arena, the first person to come out was a young man wearing leather armor with a long sword at his waist. He was in high spirits. As he walked, he waved to the audience who were praising him. However, most of the time, his eyes were still looking at a beautiful woman in the stands. His eyes were filled with undisguised love.
The man in black couldn't help but laugh. "It seems that this young man is quite infatuated with you. Aren't you going to give him some encouragement?"
The beautiful woman didn't even look at the man in black. She said angrily, "There are too many people who are infatuated with me. If I encourage everyone, wouldn't I be looking for trouble? For someone I don't like, I should firmly reject him from the beginning and not let him have the slightest room for fantasy. This is a responsible attitude towards both parties. Don't you think so?"
When the beautiful woman said these words, she didn't even look at Messiah. However, the man in black felt that every word she said was directed at him. There was an indescribable awkwardness in his heart.
In fact, if he said that he didn't have a good impression of the beautiful woman, he would be lying to himself. Perhaps he didn't have such a good impression of her before, but after these few days of interaction, the beautiful woman's straightforward and straightforward personality attracted him. However, the difference between the two of them was there. Although the man in black didn't feel inferior, he didn't have much confidence that the two of them could be together. Perhaps after he had some achievements, this lack of confidence would gradually disappear, but now …
Thinking of this, the man in black said in a low voice, "It's easy to like someone, but it's not so easy to be together. Maybe it'll be better when the two of us have similar status."
The beautiful woman frowned and almost turned her head to look at the man in black. So, she patiently continued, "As long as the two of them have the heart, what difficulties can't be solved? Only people with weak hearts would think that way, right? "
"Hey, hey, the young man's opponent has appeared. I want to watch the game. Let's talk about this later." The man in black evaded the question.
The black-clothed man's voice finally interrupted the young man and young lady who had just experienced their first awakening of love. The two of them finally fell silent and temporarily turned their gazes towards the arena. A strange young man instantly attracted everyone's attention.
It was a thin young man about the same age as the man in black. His slightly delicate face seemed to have a hint of naivety and shyness. He wasn't tall, and he wore brown clothes with a black hooded cloak on his back. The strangest thing was that on his thin left shoulder, there was a crow with black feathers all over its body.. but its eyes were as red as blood.
When the young man saw his opponent coming out, his face couldn't help but turn gloomy. He secretly cursed the Kelandil Colosseum in his heart. He didn't doubt the strength of this young man. If he could become a gladiator in the Kelandil Colosseum, he wouldn't be a weakling. The problem was that this opponent was too young. In fact, he looked even younger than the young man.
In the young man's plan, his opponent should be a burly gladiator with a ferocious face. At first glance, he could tell that the gladiator was very powerful and brutal. In this case, after a difficult battle where both sides were evenly matched, he could tenaciously win the best visual effect. It would definitely satisfy most people's imagination of a righteous warrior.
However, if the opponent was such a thin, young, and even a little shy boy, the effect would be greatly reduced. Even if he won, it wouldn't be a glorious thing.
With anger rising in his chest, the young man sneered and said with a mocking tone, "Is there no one else in the Kelandil Colosseum? Why did they send a kid who hasn't even reached puberty yet? Hey, kid, if you don't want to get hurt, go back. Otherwise, you will bleed later. "
The young man's words immediately attracted the support and laughter of a large group of people in the audience. A few people even yelled at the young man to go home and drink milk. However, there were still some people who kept their mouths shut tightly and stared at the young man without blinking. Their eyes were filled with fear and excitement!
"Hey, why is Hei Wu fighting today? Isn't bringing a pet to the competition banned? "
"How would I know? Since Hei Wu killed his opponent, I have never seen him fight again. Hahahaha, but this is really a good opportunity to make money. Who did you bet on?"
"Hei Wu, of course. But I have also heard of this young man. He seems to be very strong. He is also a noble."
"Tsk, so what if he is a noble? These cowardly nobles are best at fighting with women in bed. They are not good at fighting with real swords and guns in the arena! "
"You are wrong. For gladiators, equipment is also very important. As a noble, at least his equipment will not be bad.
"Then you should bet on that noble. Why did you bet on Hei Wu?"
"This … Hehe, I am more confident in Hei Wu. But it seems that many people have not seen Hei Wu's fight before. They are all betting on the young man to win. I did not dare to chat with you when I placed my bet. I was afraid that someone would hear me and bet with us, lowering the odds. Hehehe."
"Oh? You too? Me too. Hahahaha. "
Similar conversations continued to spread in the audience. Gradually, the noise stopped. Everyone's eyes were focused on the arena. Other than the sound of heavy breathing, there was no other sound in the arena.
The strange atmosphere in the audience suddenly quieted down. Finally, a trace of uneasiness rose in the young man's heart. He pulled out his sword. The blade that looked like it was made of gold shone dazzlingly under the sun. It also drove away the haze in the young man's heart.
Looking at the sword in his hand, the young man's confidence was greatly boosted. This sword was the best sword his father had bought for him at a high price. Not only was it extremely sharp, but it also had the effect of dazzling the opponent.
With this sword in hand, the young man's confidence and courage instantly climbed to the peak. He also thought that no matter how strong his opponent was, he would still lose to him. He could not help but smile. With a thought, he activated the special effect of the sword in advance.
The sword that was already shining with a golden light suddenly burst out with a strong light. This strong light was so dazzling that it almost blinded people. The audience immediately let out a series of exclamations. There were even people near the arena who covered their eyes and cried out in pain. When the audience got used to this light, they realized that the young man on the arena was bathed in this strong light. He was like a god of light descending from the heavens. He was majestic and had an extraordinary aura.
