As soon as our eyes met, I could recognize at a glance that he was Casadine. The dark purple pupils under the long lashes were beautiful. The bright pink lips, the smooth and white skin like porcelain. Why? He made eye contact with me and stood still in the same posture without blinking his eyes or even thinking of turning his gaze. Like he was observing me.
“Wow…You are amazingly handsome.”
“It’s the most beautiful human I’ve ever seen.”
The crowd sitting around praised Casadine’s appearance. However, it was only one moment that the praise turns into contempt and ridicule.
“But that guy, was he a gladiator slave?”
“Surely. Wasn’t it just an eye candy.”
“What does appearance matter to the subject of a slave gladiator?”
I’m sure he could hear what others were saying, but he only looked at me. His upper torso, which was seen through from the torn clothes that were like rags, showed excellent fine muscles. I was about to lean my upper body to get a closer look at Casadine when the loud voice of the host filled the stadium.
“Everyone, you’ve been waiting a long time!”
When the host wearing a red hat showed up, heat added to the audience.
“Wow ahhh!”
“Hey, get started quickly!”
“Say you’ll start it.”
“Everyone calm down.”
The host grinned and shouted with one arm outstretched at the slaves wearing shackles on their limbs.
“I’m really curious about who will survive to the end of these slaves!”
“Wow ahhhhhh!”
“Before starting the game, I have to explain the rules first, right?”
When the host glanced at the slender muscular man next to him, he put the heavy box he was holding down on the floor.
Thud!
With a loud sound, the white cloth that was covering the box fluttered and flew in the air. Then, the appearance of the objects in the box was revealed without any addition or subtraction.
“Oh oh oh oh!”
Excited voices flowed from all over the audience. Looking at the exposed object, I frowned my eyebrows without knowing. A sword, a whip, or even a mace. The identity of the objects in the box were weapons that would have a one goal with one hit. When the host glanced at the man one more time, he spilled those weapons on the floor.
“Now, the weapons belong to the slave who took over first! Without weapons, of course it would be disadvantageous in the game, right? There is only one rule, you just have to kill the opponent and survive until the end!”
“Ho!”
“Now, I’m really curious about who’ll survive to the end of these slaves. Then, as soon as we release the shackles of the slaves, we will start the game right away!”
“Wow ahhh!”
They don’t even see slaves as human beings. It’s just used for entertainment and thrown away if it’s useless.
When I saw the side of dealing with slaves, my displeasure soared. As soon as the host finished speaking, the crowd cheered excitedly. Immediately, the heavy, rumbling shackles of the slaves’ limbs were released.
“The game starts!”
“Wow!”
As soon as the host shouted the start of the game, the people in the audience cheered, and the slaves ran straight to grab the weapon. All the slaves put their hands on weapons to survive. However, despite the freedom of hands and feet, Casadine was only watching the behavior of the other slaves without making any movement.
‘Why…’
I looked nervously at Casadine. No matter how much later he was the youngest Knight Commander of the Seville Empire, he stood too defenseless and I began to worry endlessly.
“Die!”
“Ahhh!”
The slaves with weapons in their hands began to wield them to kill each other.
“Ahhhhhh!”
One of the slaves who couldn’t get a weapon was hit by the mace of another slave and thrown to the floor.
Chuang-
Aakhh-
Red blood splattered all over the stadium.
“Wow! Well done! Kill it!”
The more the slaves fought with blood splatter, the excitement of the crowd grew.
“……”
As I watched the scene where only the word madness came to mind, I frowned. In the Seville Empire, which is a thorough class society, slaves were treated as less than a livestock, but when they came to the stadium themselves, there was no such spectacle.
It was then. The dark-skinned and muscular man while holding a sword ran into Casadine, who was standing upright without a weapon.
“Die!”
Casadine glanced at the running man with an expressionless face, and as soon as he approached, he broke his right wrist with one hand and dropped his sword on the floor.
Chrang-
After picking up the sword, Casadine cut the man’s neck with a sword without hesitation.
“Wow!”
Red blood gushed from his throat with the scream of the man. At the same time, the man’s blood splattered on Casadine’s cheek.
Thud!
A large man collapsed on the floor. Casadine looked at the fallen man and turned to the slaves whose still remained.
“Ahhhhhh!”
“Yeah!”
Every time Casadine moved his hand, the slaves were thrown to the floor without any opposition. The audience, which was so noisy, couldn’t hear a single breath. It was so quiet that I could hear a gulp of saliva. Yes. All the spectators were obsessed with Casadine.
Thud-
“This damn child!”
The last, large slave, holding a whip in his hand, struck Casadine savagely.
“What, where did you go?”
In the blink of an eye, Casadine disappeared from his view, and Casadine was close to his back. With the sword he held in his hand, he neatly struck a large neck.
Gagging!
The whip he held in his hand fell to the floor with the sound of tangling. Before long, a large body fell at the feet of Casadine. In a bloody arena, only one slave survived until the end. The spectators who were watching cheered like crazy.
“Woahhh!”
“Casadine! Casadine!”
Overwhelmed by my worries, Casadine was so easily become the winner of the game.
Chrrang-
Casadine throws his blood-stained sword to the floor. Then he looked up and looked at the stand. His eyes searched, then stopped at me, sitting in a chair while staring at him silently.
When she saw his empty purple eyes sinking to the abyss, it seemed to overlap with her in the past for some reason.
I couldn’t take my eyes off Casadine, who stared at me with blood all over his body. However, I had to barely endure that I was almost disgusted by the crazy sound of the host that followed.
“Casadine, the winner of this game! Did you enjoy watching? Such a strong and handsome slave is very rare. To the one who called the highest amount, I will give you a hot night with him today!”
“Wow ahh!”
The audience, regardless of age or gender, screamed at the host’s words. I was completely convinced of why Cassadine was so silent. Casadine listened to the host’s words and was looking at me without any motion. Its appearance, It was as if you were telling me that you want to live. In the meantime, other crowds started crying out for the amount that they were anxious to spend the night with Casadine.
“10,000 gold!”
“There’s no beginning for 10,000. That guy is mine. 30,000 gold!”
“100,000 gold!”
“This is the judge’s version. 200,000! 200,000 gold!”
Casadine’s ransom continued to soar. As the amount of money people called increased, the lips of the host also lifted upward. At that time, an old man in fine clothes, who was watching the game silently, raised his hand.
“500,000!”
“Wow! 500,000 came out! 500,000 gold. Any more?”
Indeed, the crowd quickly became quiet as to whether they were willing to pay more than 500,000 gold for one night. As if convinced of his victory, a faint smile was circling the mouth of the old man who offered for 500,000. Taking that opportunity, I asked the host a question.
“What is his ransom price? Not for one night.”
The seat I sat in was one of the best places to see the stadium among the spectators, so I could ask the host right away.
“Yes? Ransom money? He’s an exclusive slave to our stadium, so he’s not selling…”
“5 billion.”
“!!”
At the amount I offered, the host’s eyeballs were large enough to cover half of his face. It was big enough to buy a small city for 5 billion gold in the Seville Empire. Normal nobles couldn’t even pay for it, but our family, deeply connected with the Royal family, was different.
“Is 5 billion enough?”
“…….”
“Aren’t I asking?”
“Ah….Yes!”
The host nodded hastily, whether he was anxious to change his words or not.
“Boo…”
Dissatisfaction erupted throughout the audience. The old man who called 500,000 was unpleasant, opened his eyes and even stared at me as if he want killing me. Whether or not, I didn’t care. They won’t understand my behavior anyway. There would be no idiot paying this amount to slaves unless they were the Imperial.
‘…Of course I have the ability to pay.’
After paying the money on the spot, I took him out of the field right away before the crowd made loud noisy. Casadine followed me without talking. I liked the fact that unless the master talks to the slave, he doesn’t seem to have enough attention to speak to the master first.
From now on, the story to be told to Casadine is difficult when it gets into the ears of others, so I took him to a nearby inn.
“To the most expensive room here.”
“Yes!”
The innkeeper laughed and guided us to the largest and most expensive room.
“Then, please have a good time.”
The door was closed with the words of the innkeeper. However, as soon as the door was closed, Casadine suddenly began to unbutton the clothes that he was wearing.
Tttuk! Tukk!
Surprised by his sudden behavior, I hurriedly held it back.
“…What are you doing now?”
“Aren’t you buying me for this, Master? I will be serving you the night right now.”
Answering, he was still unbuttoning. My hands stopped at a moment when I saw his collar open without hesitation.
If you want to support me, you can buy me a coffee
