The tentacle of the beast wrapped Aesir around it selve like a sausage between two buns. Aesir struggled but his efforts went with out progress.Gina looked at him being raised to the beast. She wanted to help him, but then she saw his eyes and the thought left her immediately. She went back to slaughtering other beasts.However those within the crowd that had their eyes on Aesir from the beginning could not help but get a bit anxious about his fate. They had all seen as the others were dissolved like paper in fire inside the body of the jellyfish beast.This slight worry included the two men of status sitting at the VIP section of the arena.For a split second there, even Mr Woody had to bite down the urge to dive in to Aesir's rescue. "Such a waste," he thought to himself.Although he had only just met Aesir, he could see that the brother and sister pair had quite the potential. He was starting to feel a little regret about putting them up for today's games. "Maybe it was too early,
Elder Caleb waved his hand and crowd was silent. He gave another signal and a door opened. From it came two Erankos pulling out a man with wounds and bruises all over his body.This was most unexpected but Aesir remained his expression in his face, neither moving or saying anything.Gina on the other hand, kept taking slight peeks at him. By some miracle, the expression on her face too had not change.But careful observation would tell that her knees had slightly bent forward a bit. She had shifted her center of gravity to a more comfortable position for either flight or fight."Good ladies and gentlemen of the Ebora," Elder Caleb continued, "I came here expecially to bring you good cheer from the surface world. To encourage the hard work of the brothers here. However, right in the confines of my own quarters, an attempt was made on my dare life."The moment he said those words, the entire crowd gasped in shock. This also included Mr Woody. Now, for Mr Woody, this was not a good thin
Mr Green from a young age had always been ostracized because of his looks and all that. Of cause in a place like Atlantis, Erankos were encouraged as a people. But unfortunately, his deformity did not give him immerse strength like the others or teeth that can bite through iron. Instead, all he got was green skin and eyes that could never look straight. It was not even until his older years when he was escaping for his life did he miraculously descover his power. That was when he had gotten in contact with the Grootslang. And then Step by step, with his special talent and skills that he slowly acquired, did he climb steadily to the top. Yet, regardless of the status and power he had come to posses, fate had been cruel to him in his search for a life partner. It was even difficult for him to have fun in the brothels. If he could not hold it in any longer, he would wear a coat or hoodie that covered his head to his feet and when he got into the room, he would request for the ligh
At that moment, Mr Green's tears poured like a mini fountain. His emotions rumbled like never before. He felt an intense pounding in his chest that felt like the banging of pistol against mortar. His mind had become a total mess. He held her tightly in his embrace, his thoughts drawing up images of her. When she was angry at him to how he would tease her and she would blossom into a smile. Like a flower to the light of the morning. Her attentiveness when she worked and how she made the entire world bright with just her presence. Such things he would never behold again. That smile he would see no longer. That flower withered and gone. Like a broken glass cup, he felt unmendable. She was his world. The first to have ever made him feel life and she was taken away from him without care. Was happiness too much a request to ask for. Was peace but an illusion. Why was the universe so unfair to him? Just then, he heard the intense scream of a woman coming from the other room. He ins
"Him!" Mr Green pointed. "He is Andrew. The person that sent me." All eyes moved in the direction of Mr Green's finger. Not too far away. He had pointed at a man not so far away. A muscular man still holding tight to his weapon."What!? Me!? That is impossible. It can't be me. I am not even named Andrew."Mr Green had pointed a random participant. Coincidentally, it was the same man that had challenged Aesir and Gina just before the Arena battle. The same one that she had turned over like a sack of potatoes."Boss Woody! My Lord Elder! It was isn't me. This fool, he...."*Slash*His head tumbled from his body before he could finish his prove of innocence. The last thing the 'innocent' man saw before the remaining if his life flashed before his eyes was the face of his killer. It was a face he would never had believed.Blood gushed into the air from the body like a spring. This made the audience scream in pleasure and praise.Mr Woody and Elder Caleb on the other hand looked on in su
"it is more of what we could help you with." Madeline responded to Father Fred. "Hmmm! Okay, please have a seat ladies. And tell me about this help you plan to render. Which I am most confident you won't give for free. Am my right!?" Madeline smiled as she sat on the seat Lydia had brought over while Lydia herself stood behind, depicting the true nature of a servant to a boss. This also had a subconscious effect to raising Madeline's value in his head. "Father Fred Have you ever heard of the Rainbow Anima fruit?" Madeline asked. "Of course I have heard of it. We do have an Ignotus Bazaar (hidden market) here too you know. A market where the only form of currency happens to be anima stone. But I am also aware that getting such an item is like a mere man planning to steal the queen's jewels. Even if you know where to get one, it is practically impossible." "Says who!?" "I beg your pardon?!" "I said: says who?" Madeline asked again. "Well! If I must say, how about common sense
The sound of drills on the walls increased and holes at different points were blasted through. Men in overall black poured in through this holes.Surprisingly, they held with them what Madeline and Lydia were sure were guns.The two women took a fighting stance. With Madeline already releasing a part of her aura forming a giant claw before her."Father Fred! You and your halots should surrender immediately, your men are dead and you are surrounded." This was an order from one of the men in black overalls. From his talk, he was most likely the leader. Some of the guns were pointed to Madeline and Lydia, with a major of them to Father Fred and his giant fish bowl.Madeline was still contemplating an excape route, but the moment she heard that man call her and Lydia 'Halots', something snapped in her. She immediately released her aura and as in went forward, a chimera made entirely of aura appeared."FIRE!"Sparks of light like the shimmering of stars reflecting off water went off in
Madeline laughed again. "Is it not obvious? The second is Aesir and Gina. These two have currently been accepted as members of the Ebora. Although we were not able to get Grootslang, we were still able to get the a person into the royal house and two into the biggest gang. As it is, we are still on track."Lydia nodded in understanding, but she still could not shake off the feeling of something being wrong. Maybe it was just her feelings for Derek getting in the way, she was still actually worried.....Meanwhile, Derek was escorted personally by Esther back to the true Atlas hidden deep within the Submerged region. Before the short journey had started back to Atlas, a guard had suggested that Esther blinded Derek with a cloth or a bag over his head. She had taken his life on the spot. What the poor guard did not know was that this guest of theirs that they had been ordered to obey no matter what by the king was actually their Kings boss.Writers were a prideful bunch.No matter th
