Chapter 155: This! Is! Sparta! No, Not Really.
Floid walked down the corridor leading to a private balcony in the large colosseum in the middle of Trad. According to what Raven told Floid, today was the day when the gladiator match would be held and Floid decided that it might be fun to see some gladiators kill each other in the fighting ring. It wasn't anything new to Floid since Floid was already used to death and fighting but he hasn't seen a gladiator match before and Floid decided that he wanted to see one for himself! Back on earth, there was no place where Floid could see something like this. The humans on earth protect lives so much that they even try to preserve the lives of criminals and terrorists by only putting them in prison. It was maddening.
Floid always thought that the humans from the history books he would read were far better than the humans that were alive in his time. Floid read about gladiator matches and spartan wars and he wondered if the people back then would be easier to get along with. Floid wanted to see if the humans in Trad were like the humans in the history books or not.
Floid walked with both Alucard and Dragonnel behind him. For the first time since Floid knew them, Floid was shocked to see the same expression on both their faces. They were both trying their best to hide it, but Floid could tell that they were not happy to be walking among humans. Both Dragonnel and Alucard frowned as they passed beside all the humans. Floid knew that if he allowed them to go on a rampage, those two monsters would kill every fucking person in this colosseum!
But Floid told the both of them not to do anything until he gives them the order. Floid didn't really enjoy being around humans either, but Floid also wanted to see this match. Floid was the sort of person who could hold back one of his desires for the sake of another desire. Floid decided to hold back his bloodthirsty nature for the time being so he could see this match.
"Ah, Master Floid. I see you made it safely,"
Raven walked up to Floid from down the hall and Floid rose a brow at Raven's words. It was almost like Raven was hoping that Floid wouldn't make it here in one piece. Raven had a lot of guards behind him and all of them were staring at Alucard and Dragonnel with deep frowns. Both Alucard and Dragonnel only gave the guards one glance before they both ignored the guards and turned away with disinterest.
"You brought quite a lot of guards with you. Did you bring them here to threaten me perhaps?"
There was a smile on Floid's face as he said this and Raven felt a cold chill travel from one end of his spine right down to the other end! Holy shit, what sort of smile is that!? Floid's teeth were pure white but he had long canines that made his smile look predatory! He looked like a wolf instead of a human! Raven immediately waved his hand in the negative!
"No! No! These aren't for that at all! T-They're just... Protection! They're protection for me since this pace is very dangerous! You never know what sort of people you can run into when you're in the gladiator pit so you have to bring as many guards with you as possible! If you don't -!!"
"That woman is one of the most entertaining fighters here. She has survived against many of the other gladiators! I'm sure you'll enjoy the battle!"
Floid hummed as he rest his cheek on his fist. He couldn't understand how this woman was one of the most talented fighters. Floid could sense the mana coming from the woman and it was pitiful. There was barely enough mana to make her an A-class! She wouldn't even be a match for a strong goblin with a good whacking stick!
But Floid would give her the benefit of the doubt. Maybe she uses physical and fighting skills instead of Mana. Floid looked to the other end of the arena and he saw that this time it was a man that walked out of the cage. The man was also wearing armor but the armor only covered his legs and his shoulders. There was no armor on his chest or his arms. Raven explained again that this man was also a crowd favorite. Apparently, he was a famous gladiator that managed to survive against many others.
Floid nodded and he just turned back to the fight. He could sense that the man had at least A-class Mana. This means that the man wasn't completely defenseless. The man might either have strong defensive magic or his attack magic was so good that he thinks he doesn't need any defenses. Either way, Floid just hoped they wouldn't disappoint him.
One of the beautiful women by the side came forward and she bent low beside Floid as she poured him a cup of wine. As she rose, she gave Floid a seductive smile that was meant to attract him. The women here were slaves that work in this gladiator ring. They have worked here for a long time but they weren't used to seeing someone as handsome as Floid in the VIP balconies. The men that usually come to the VIP balconies are either fat politicians or old men that were far past their prime. So the woman was trying to see if she could appeal to Floid. If she could gain his favor then it is possible that Floid would take her with him when he leaves.

She expected Floid to at least glance at her exposed cleavage, but Floid didn't even give her a single look! Instead, she felt someone grab her by the shoulder and she turned around to see Dragonnel looking down at her with a scowl.
The woman stumbled back at the amount of disgust in his eyes! It was like he was looking at trash on the side of the road! She didn't know if she even did anything wrong but at that moment she couldn't do anything else but apologize while bowing her head.
"I'm s-sorry!"
Dragonnel made a small space for her and she immediately speed-walked out of the balcony while sweating! Once she was gone, Dragonnel rolled his eyes. This is why he didn't want to come to this place. Humans are all the same and Dragonnel hated the way they start acting innocent once their plan is exposed. Especially female humans. Dragonnel loved women! He loved to fuck them as he loved to eat them! But human women were definitely the worst sort of people that Dragonnel has ever met in his lifetime!
