“Why didn’t you stop him?! He could have killed my brother!!” Sakura exclaimed.
“Trust me little girl, if he wanted your brother killed, it wouldn’t had lasted this long” Rose said,
She looked straight into her eyes putting a slight pressure on Sakura,
“Also, I don’t like the way you are speaking to me right now; I was nice enough to answer your questions, I didn’t have to do that you know? ….. talk to me like we are familiar with each other again and I’ll put you in your place, little girl”
“It’s okay Sakura, your brother’s fine, he will just be hurting for a couple of weeks, that’s all” Akeno says,
She tries to calm Sakura down; it seems her brother getting hurt has made her forget who they were actually dealing with here.
Rose without even looking at them,
“Physical recovery: 3 weeks. Psychological recovery: 3 months”
‘You’re not helping here, Belau-san’ Akeno thought,
“By the way, what was it that he called his martial arts?… it sounds familiar” Akeno says
“Pankration, a martial art from the age of antiquity, it was mostly used for sport until Sparta adopted it and perfected into their doctrine, it’s the reason why the were such fearsome warriors in hand to hand combat” Rose said,
“But shouldn’t it had disappeared along with the gladiator games around 500 AD?” Sakura asked,
“.”
Rose didn’t say a thing, she pretended to not have heard it.
Acheron sat down once again, after his little display of power he knew there wasn’t going to be many challengers anytime soon.
“Only 100 left… *sigh* I wanted to fight more, that’s what I get for getting my hopes up thinking this was a school for actual prodigies” Acheron said,
Kobayashi-sensei heard his words, she couldn’t help but look at him strangely,
‘this boy has fought almost 200 people already, he doesn’t seem tired at all and he still wants more, I was right in keeping an eye on him, I’m glad I told Red about him’ Kobayashi-sensei thought,
No one showed up since his fight with Sora, there was only 1 person left, #268.
This person got the crowd clamoring and whispering with each other, specially the males. They didn’t seem a good ending to come for Acheron now that ‘she’ was here.
Amazoness walked up to the fighting circle, she held a small circular shield in one hand while a sword was strapped to her back.
The crowd had almost forgotten the fact she could also wield a sword, since most of time she fought with a bow and was part of the Archery club, not the Sword Arts Club.
Acheron had his eyes closed for a while now, he opened them the moment she walked into the circle.
He recognized her; she is the one that had stalked him all day yesterday, she felt familiar, like he had seen her somewhere before yesterday.
Acheron shook his head,
‘if I forgot about her, then she wasn’t that memorable in the first place’ Acheron thought,
Acheron stood up and got ready to fight, she felt stronger than Sora, so he was excited for this upcoming match, that was until she got into a fighting stance and Acheron recognized that form.
Like a deflating balloon Acheron’s excitement was slowly leaving his body, all that was left was disappointment.
“. I give up” Acheron declared,
“.”
“EHHHH?!?!”
Acheron declaration shocked everyone watching on, even Kobayashi-sensei was shocked at this outcome.
Who would have thought he would just give up before even fighting?
“You can’t give up! You need to fight me!!” Amazoness exclaimed,
“You’re the last generation of the Amazonian warriors, correct?” Acheron said,
Amazoness was shocked that he could tell her actual origins, hardly anyone these days should know that her people still exist.
“Don’t act so shocked, I recognized your fighting stance, don’t think me foolish enough to participate in your people’s traditions of enslaving themselves to men” Acheron said,
“Your people seek strength in the martial way from your male partners, any male strong enough to dominate you, you give your body and soul to them, be they a good person or not that’s the reason your people are going extinct, look around! it isn’t Ancient Greece anymore! Your traditions should’ve stayed buried when your island was destroyed!”
Acheron turned around, picked up his stuff and walked out of the ring into the waiting area inside the Colosseum.
Amazoness just stood there, not knowing what to do until lightning seemed to strike her spine all the way down to in between her legs.
“MNNN!… He rejected me so harshly!… Could this be neglect play? Mnnn!” Amazoness once again left with wobbly legs after meeting Acheron.
Kobayashi-sensei just looked on at Amazoness with a look as if she was seeing trash,
“The matches have ended! Final score: 267 wins, 1 loss! The match with Poison will start in 45 minutes!”
Back in the audience, Rose’s killing intent was so strong that those people around her, in the exception of the 3 girls, were barely able to breathe due it.
“That THOT!! How dare her try to trick Acheron-sama! If there is going to be a s.e.x slave for Acheron-sama it will be me!!” Rose raged for reasons that no one here would really understand,
The 3 girls next to Rose didn’t know what to say about her statements, so they just pretended not to hear it and focused on not getting that killing intent focused on them.
