Zerlicia Namsaka disguised as a gladiator, enlisting under the name Zerfa Ahna to prevent her true identity from being revealed.
If his identity is revealed, his security is no longer guaranteed.
Now Zerlicia is in the Colosseum dormitory along with Wayra. They were in the same room because Zerlicia was given the opportunity to choose, wanting to be in which room she was.
"Please take off your clothes!"
"Yes?" Zerlicia stared blankly at Wayra's face, with an innocent smile, Zerlicia did not understand what Wayra meant to her.
"Are you able to sleep in clothes in this hot place?!", he replied.
"But we have to? What if the guards....."
"That's normal. All we can do is hold on until the end. But calm down, for a fighter with a big betting fee like us, they wouldn't dare touch us. Don't worry."
"But, still, sleeping without clothes is like..."
"As far as you are, at least don't wear thick clothes or you'll get angry" he said, then he slept on his bed without a blanket.
Due to being under the audience stands, most girls who became gladiators, slept in skimpy clothes. And that's a common thing in the world of slavery. In addition, the slave is an individual who almost resembles a pet. So their rights depend on their master.
Forgetit.
"So, where's your girlfriend?"
"Ah she... died."
"Huh?!"
It is a fact that cannot be understood by him. Zerlicia was shocked to hear that Brother of her client, was killed. He had failed.he had failed to maintain the smile of an innocent girl.
"Elsa Frestya, have you ever asked me my name? We haven't even gotten to know each other well."
"Aren't you, sad...?"
"Actually I was sad to hear it but, I had to endure this hell to become strong until one day, I would conquer this country."
"You're really cool, Wayra."
"really?"
"So, we have the same plan?"
"It's true.but, if it continues like this, we have to kill each other in the final later..."
"That's not gonna happen. I'll destroy this place before you get killed, Wayra."
"Hahaha, you're so rude! Look, I'm older than you are now, Zerfa."
".... Oh yes, until I forget. Me, Wayra Frestya. I'm the brother of the boy who told you to take me home," with a smile, Wayra put her index finger on Zerlicia's lips to tease her.
"Huh?"
"What?!"
"Why are you surprised like that?"
"The end." very nervously, Zerlicia said that she had mistaken him.
"I. I think Elsa's sister is a man...."
"Ahahaha, surely the boy said shyly, you siscon."
"You're this..."
"Well, that's enough, forget it. Crazy Women is here so, my job is done."
"Eh?"
"Zerlicia Namsaka, actually my goal in getting him to make you come here, is to free the city of Yura from the free-slavery system that this kingdom is doing!"
"... you mean?"
"As my beloved sister said, Yura City is a city formed solely as a human mine for this Colosseum. Even though I'm here and they're giving protection to my sister, I might believe in this rotten country. Besides, indeed this rotten country, can it stop messing with one's life?
"The answer is definitely no, right?", he said as they prepared for their next match.
"Then from that, I made a deal with my sister. If I get caught one day, my sister will go looking for you. But well, I didn't think you'd come this fast, luck would be on my side."
".... In other words..."
"Zerlicia Namsaka, I need your strength, please help me!", by sticking out her hand, Wayra smiled waiting for Zerlicia to shake her hand.
"I'll help you, after all, I also have business with this rotten country."
"really? Well then, I'm glad our goals are the same, Zerlicia."
Then they both came out of their rooms. They did not go straight to the arena, Zerlicia and Wayra were required to eat breakfast first before starting their daily activities.
However, after eating, Zerlicia and Wayra planned to get out of the Colosseum by settling down. Like a mouse on the ceiling of a house, Wayra looks to have memorized the path they have to go through. And they crawled on a narrow road, like a mouse.
But in the end, they managed to get out as well.
"Zerlice!"
"Well!", when they came out of the hole made by someone, in front of them, without them realizing it appeared, two guards were the ones they had to fight once because otherwise, they won't be able to escape.
Zerlicia threw a fireball at the two and the ball exploded, eventually burning the bodies of the two.
He really killed someone!
"Let's run away before the chaos spreads!", said Wayra as she led her running towards the city of Yura.
The two of them continued to run until they met a merchant's horse carriage and finally, they both hitched a ride in it.
"So, what exactly happened here?"
Zerlicia felt that something bad would happen to her. And it's true...
"Queen...."
"But!!!!!!"
The two knelt before Zerlicia, like a subordinate to their master, Elsa and Wayra, both gazing at Zerlicia as a Queen.
Suddenly, it made Zerlicia scream in confusion. Suddenly called the Queen!
"What do you want from me?! Just so you know, my body doesn't taste good!", he said.
"Come on, are we cannibals?"
"...."
"I'm sorry for suddenly acting like this. But, Zerlicia, I've been watching you for a long time. To be precise, at the time of your career as a Crazy Women shot up into the clouds."
"That's not the name for long..."
"I'm sorry. Zerlicia Namsaka, do you mean to have any business with this rotten country, is to avenge your parents?", casually, Wayra smiled in question.
"If it is true... Then why?!", replied Zerlicia in a high tone.
"Don't put on such an angry face, I'm so scared—"
"I'll kill you!"
"Heh, kidding, Zerlicia. If that's your real intention, I'll tell you a story."
"story?"
"True, a story about how our city could turn into a city of slaves...."
"?!"
***
It began at a time when Zerlicia had not yet been born in this world. At that time, the kingdom was initially very happy with the citizens and resources located in the city. No, rather, they are only interested in the resources that exist and make the citizens of the city work for them.
Once the resources run out, they are no longer concerned. Want to live or die, the kingdom doesn't care anymore. The city stands alone without the help of the kingdom. You could say, stepson.
Or a pick-up boy? In essence, the city has escaped the pressure of the kingdom. Despite being within the territory, the city lived as if it stood alone.
At first the city was going very well on its own. The people help each other, there is no difference in the city, all people must live well. That's the slogan owned by the lord of the city after the kingdom let the city go.
Long story short, Yura city went well for approximately 12 years passed. The people in it live together, every problem is always resolved in a family to find a bright spot. It really is a beautiful city.
Till...
The government is back in power again. The city leader was caught, the daughter of the city leader was put into the imperial palace dungeon, as well as they captured some humans to be included in the bloody fight.
Every approximately 3 years, the kingdom will choose and capture people who have the potential to be included as participants in bloody battles.
And at that time, the city was famous as a slave city. Once upon a time, the guild owner put on display a contest to bring down the royal government however....
Shortly after, the guild owner disappeared and the business was continued by his daughter.
***
"The bottom line is, this country only views this Yura city as a resource city! If there are no natural resources, then they see human resources! Know it? Not infrequently they catch women to be made into satisfied slaves by this rotten country."
"I'm so worried, all this time I've been so worried about my brother's safety. His age had grown up to be forced to participate by the royal forces. I was afraid that this weak Elsa would become a satisfied slave... Zerlicia, please.. help us!"
"Me... What can I do?", said Zerlicia. As if slamming dishes to the floor violently, Zerlicia shattered the last hope of the townspeople who had suffered from the rotten state from the very beginning of its roots.
"You know my responsibilities are still left, don't you? I have 25 sisters to take care of until they grow up. I can't leave them."
"But!!", snapped Wayra, "If the root of the problem is not uprooted, it will gradually spread to your family as well, Zerlicia!"
"...."
"Zerlicia, answer me!", Wayra said in a high tone.
"You like girls, don't you? Then, I'll be the pay this time."
"Sister?!!", Elsa immediately snapped.
"...."
"I'm not enough? Then... " Wayra glanced at Elsa who was looking at her nervously.
"We gave up our lives for the welfare of the people of Yura city!", with firm intention and determination, Wayra gave a quite tempting offer, to a man but! Well but, Zerlicia woman, which woman does a fellow woman like?
"Actually, it's not a matter of payment, Brother."
"Just wayra, Zerlicia."
"No, you're older than me. Like I said, it's not a matter of pay! Right now, I still don't know whether becoming a Rank S alone is enough to overthrow the government of this kingdom. So...."
"Calm down, Zerlicia! We'll help!"
"Then I lose my pay!"
"Eh?"
"For now, since you're fugitives now, come with me!"
"Where?", they both asked.
"To a place where someone can give me advice!"
"....?"
They were both confused by Zerlicia's words. The two were silent, following Zerlicia from behind, then sitting on the horse carriage to go to the city where Lein was.
