The voices of the chase only continued to grow stronger. With each passing second, Fen's window for escape was getting tighter and tighter. But in a situation where he was suddenly supposed to use the limbs that he never had before, even the pressure of time wasn't enough to prompt those unruly wings of his into action! "There he is!" Before Fen would manage to wrestle the conscious control over his wings, his pursuers finally managed to catch up. It seemed that while the young man managed to get a…-

"It's hard to believe that they could be so stupid…" Muttering to himself as his initial peek turned into looking in all directions out of the now fully open doors, Fen couldn't really find out how did those stupid people managed to build such an insane empire. Even if they were absolutely certain that escaping the colosseum was impossible, then just for the sake of sleeping peacefully at night, they should still put someone to keep watch on the streets! 'Well, their idiocy will be my…

A quick scan of Fen's surrounding revealed that the power of something that could only be called as partial self-explosion was actually far greater than he expected. It was as if the sharp pain that continued to bother his neck was actually nothing but a slight inconvenience when compared to the damage that was supposed to hit him. When Fen ignited his blood for the second time, he intiialy expected that maybe it would be enough to kickstart this double flow of his once again. Sadly, that was not the case…

'What the heck…' Despite all the energy and euphory flowing along with the fire through Fen's veins, his mind remained clear enough for the young man to notice that the sword that he was holding was quite different to the weapons that he saw in a few of his visions. If it was something that Fen noticed himself, then it wouldn't be that big of trouble. After all, one's flaws were actual flaws only once one's enemy learned about them in order to make use of the opening that they created. Sadly, the glint…

Still quite overwhelmed by the devastating message behind the last set of memories that he received due to Draconis intervention, if not for everything that was happening to him all at once, the young man could very well just sit down, curl into a ball and start crying. But his body no longer listened to his commands. As soon as the young man allowed the ignition of his bloodline, he realised that he made a single mistake. Instead of focusing himself a bit to ignite his talent from within his body, Fen…

"Why the heck…" "What the fuck…" "How could you…" "Are you insane to…" With everyone speaking all at once, Fen's hearing tuned all the voices down in one instant, making him immune to the storm of shouts that ensued right in the next second. Just looking at the maddened faces of everyone around him was enough for the young man to understand what they wanted to tell, ask or point out. Hearing their words filled with desperation, fear and disappointment would only serve to demotivate him even…

It would be hard to get even greater reaction from the crowd that watched the ongoing events. As if the innate instincts of the barbarians they were just a few hundred years ago were awoken, nearly the entire stadium was on its feet, expressing their emotions with either aggrieved shouts, joyfull cheering or simple outcries of shock. On the other hand, it would be a lie to tell that Fen didn't feel anything. Even after dropping now lifeless body of the man to the ground as he continued to convluse for a…

A silence filled the entire colosseum. To have someone interfere in the match, and do so without even a shred of hesitation, was unheard of. But instead of letting the tense situation continue, Fen was focused on the man in front of him. Taking control over the aggressor wasn't hard at all. Just by moving at a correct timing, something that was easily achievable due to the disparity of the agility between the two men, all Fen had to do was to catch hold of the enemy wrist. With that done, and enough of…

"Fight!" As if realising what the crowd of people located all over the tribunes of the colosseum wanted, the official part of the event didn't take all that long. With some officials declaring their undying and eternal love to the empire and the envoy completely ignoring those pleas to be noticed. From the way in which the entire formal opening of the event was dealt with, Fen could tell that after satisfying the minimum of what the local powers requested to flex their muscles and actually allow their…

"... and for the sake of draconis, do not stir up any more trouble, okay?" So far, Fen has never experienced this kind of great encouragement from others before in his life. Even when he went to the forest to deal with the beasts that Beyar trapped for him, outside of a simple pat on the shoulder, he was left entirely to his own devices. On the other hand, after nearly an hour long lecture from Mark, thirty minutes of nagging from Hekarion and deadly stare of Nadia accompanying the process all together,…
