Chapter Twenty one - ill Advised.
"And I will teach you the move right after i give a glance at the other four Ground Tappers." Explained Athenderus while pointing at another man to approach, which of course means that Inigo should return to his spot and stop getting all up on the Teacher's nerves. It was a nice way to make some people stop talking. "You there, come forward."
The man or at least he can be considered a full grown man who was approaching was Bacada Theras. The young...

Chapter Nineteen - Knee Cuter
Making their way out of the training rooms underneath the Arena, and towards the training yard near it, the newcomers met with a rather accelerating view. They witnessed many many men practicing their individually different skills.
Some sparing against each other with dull weapons or with wooden Swords, or practicing the arts of Hand to Hand Combat, While some bashing their Swords against Training dummies, learning the moves they were instructed to pr...

Chapter Eighteen - Drama
"Yes sir!" They shouted right away, not aiming on wasting a heartbeat. The consequences of touching an employee hired by Aaron Hare himself, are indeed deadly. At this case Auicia is so important that, all of them knew they would lose their head, if they ever touched Auicia in any way. Be it with a weapon or a dirty mind. All four of the men agreed, some out of fear and some because they simply weren't sexists.
But one agreed because he had no other choice...

Chapter Seventeen - Training Room.
3 groups split in 3 lines( Carrying 5 people each.), following 3 of the Arena Masters out of that specific training room of the Arena which they were standing on, to reach their own training rooms. A.k.a to reach their soon to be new team. From now on, the other 75% of the Arena Warriors, are their enemies. It is how an Arena works.
Since the groups are split in 4, naturally there are 4 training rooms. In each of those training rooms there are no...

"I suppose I can give this a shot." Answered the lady sitting near the desk in front of Arthur Hare. Her embarrassment passed away bit by bit due to the mass sympathy Arthur showed for these ladies, ladies he barely knew.
He made it clear that he wants to help them and others more than he wants to help himself. He bought whatever he wanted in life so far, in his thoughts "Now it is time to give." Her hope slightly increased for the ...

Chapter Fifteen - A Subrace of A Demonic Branch?
Early in the morning, Aaron James got another Visitor. It was a patrol Guard claiming to come from the arena to collect him. Rather a surprise how an Arena has patrol Guards keeping the place safer. If something goes wrong, there are countless warriors willing to lend a hand, specifically those warriors are hot headed individuals who would gladly slay a trouble maker for sport.
But yet again, coin is the main motivation in the Arena...

"Excuse me sir Merchant. May I have a word with you?" Heard a Merchant a sweet delicate feminine tone behind him which gave him goosebumps, considerably even more than usual for a different reason.
His arm hair raised in a heartbeat due to excitement and as he turned around, he almost fell into shock because of the "butterflies" invading his stomach. Why? He was seeing a young, 5.6 foot tall lady in her late twenties with the most gorgeous gol...

Weighing his options, he saw only one possible way out of this situation, running like hell.

And that would even be considered the lightest punishment if he was caught. If he tried to take all of them alone, he would fail mis...

Pushing fear into their souls in advance. Whipping the eyes, nose, ears or basically anywhere around the head area was pain so unbearable that some men fainted at once because of it.

Although this short journey uncomfortable for either sides of the stick, this more than helpful shark aided at a pre-holy matter to find the den.
Tim's energy flinched by a hunch once he spotted the entrance of the den, and invited the shark to come in if he can.
Squeezing in with the help of this same shark, they find over 15 sardines swimming around, most likely got down here accidentally.

What still swims as a massive barricade however, is the fucking large sardine storm taking residence beneath him, or whatever the hell they're doing.

What that eel did was indeed foul but Tim can't exactly do much about it. That enemy is a meter and a half long, has a row of sharp teeth that can kill the boy easily and of course is much faster.
While Tim, well he's just a 30 day old stingray and can't possibly measure forces with a bigger enemy. This specific enemy has a mako shark companion so the odds weigh on the enemy's side, this young stingray is powerless to oppose.
So carrying the hunt he tagg...
