Chapter Two

In the Kingdom of Moyzen, a place called Coliseum is very famous. This is because it gives entertainment to the people of Moyzen especially to the nobility. They make gladiators fight against each other and bet thousands of money. This is the misery inside the Coliseum. Gladiators kill for their lives while it is a consolation for those who watch them.

In the corner of the dark cell, a violent aura emanated from a person full of bandages. Only her blue eyes can be seen because her appearance was covered with white bandages.

"Are you sure you will fight your fellow executioner?" a gentle question from the person in the other cell.

"For freedom, I certainly will," Helena answered boldly to her friend Rey. During Helena's two years of imprisonment in this hell she had only a single friend and that was Rey.

"I know you have a strong desire to be free here, but it's not just an ordinary gladiator that you would be against with, Kroko. I can feel that he is strong." Rey is worried about his friend Kroko. His intuition says that bad things will happen.

"You know I'm not just a simple gladiator, Rey. I can kill anyone--- even the other executioners." Helena's aura grew stronger. She was surrounded by a blue aura and eventually disappeared.

"I'm ready. "

"W-what if L-lagrim is your opponent?" Rey asked nervously.

Lagrim is the most feared creature in the entire Coliseum. Even the leader has nothing against him. Without the Exes the Coliseum would have been destroyed for a long time. Because no matter how strong you are the Exes will not be destroyed as it contains a powerful spell---and if you try to remove it you will surely die.

However, even though Lagrim was strong, he was still captured because the strength of the Royal Family from the Center Palace, the ruler of all the kingdoms in the world of Nemesis--- was no joke. Even the kingdom of Moyzen will look like a fly when compared to the Center Palace.

Helena let out a horrible smile. "This will be his last day then," she answered the question of his friend Rey. Rey was terrified of his friend Kroko. Even though they have been together for two years at the Coliseum, she's still a mystery. Even though they were friends, he had never seen her face. Is it a handsome creature? Or maybe it looks disgusting because she was full of bandages? He could not answer the question if he could not see the Kroko inside the bandages.

Rey's mind was cut off when he suddenly felt pain and soreness. It is also noteworthy that the Exes was glowing with blue light. He screamed in pain and the concern in Helena's blue eyes could be seen.

Her friend excruciated in pain but she could do nothing. She was already punching the railings between them but she only jumped out because of the spell contained in the railing.

"What are you doing to my friend !? He did not break your rules! Why are you punishing him !? You are shameless!"

"Aarrghhhhhhhh. E-enough."

Rey almost fainted from being electrocuted. His body was shaking. He was already moaning in pain. He was having a hard time but fortunately the blue light in his Exes was gone and he drastically fell down.

"R-rey, my friend. Are you all right?" Helena asked worriedly, clinging to the railing. She wanted to treat her friend but she could do nothing. She could only treat deep wounds and bruises but not the person's energy.

The third level is electricity. Exes electrify energy to weaken. For them, energy serves as their life. When it is consumed severely you are likely to die.

"D-don't... worry K-kroko... this is nothing." Rey answered weakly.

"How can they do this to you? You did nothing wrong! Why did they do this !?" Helena was furious. Her fists are clenched. Big question to the two of them why Rey was punished even though Rey did nothing wrong.

It was only a matter of time before they heard footsteps outside their cell. There are only two of them in this room but they are surrounded by a steel railing.

The door opened and the leader of the Coliseum was showed. It was an old fat man with fancy white robes--- including his four soldiers in the rear. Helena's teeth gritted. She stared sharply at the disgusting leader. His belly almost exploded in size. This old fat man benefited from the money that came from the gladiator's survival game.

"What did you do to Rey !?" Helena shouted.

"Sacrilegious! Learn to respect the leader if you do not want to be like your friend," the soldier said violently.

Helena looked at him sharply and answered fearlessly, "My friend did not violate the rules but why did you punished him !?"

The soldier glared at her and would have answered again but the leader stopped him with his hand.

"Just because Lord Putin will buy you, you already had the courage to insult me ​​!? Hahaha. You are just a trash. In this place you will obey me because I am the law!" He pointed his finger to Rey, "Take that to the arena as well as that garbage." The soldiers opened their railing. The two soldiers picked up Rey. Helena was trembling with anger.

"What are you going to do to my friend? Don't tell me you will make him fight in that condition!?" The two soldiers also grabbed her but she released a violent energy thus they bounced.

"Don't touch us- Arrrrghhhhhh." Helena cried out sharply because her neck was burning. Exes glows red. The old fat man was pressing the button for Exes.

"Leader, I'm sorry for what my friend did. It will never happen again. Please forgive him," Rey begged but he just looked at him badly. He couldn't do anything but watched his friend suffer. Her neck was already smoking and he just closed his eyes at that scene as his tears flowed because of the situation of his friend.

It was hot, very hot but Helena resisted it to show that she was not afraid. She took a deep breath. She feels the heat coming from the Exes a little less.

"Don't try to talk back again if you don't want to be punished! Take that. Pweee," the leader growled at them and even spat on her face. Helena did nothing and just drifted away. Her anger overflowed but she did not dare to fight because her friend might be harmed and punished again.
