"Ella, let's go back."
"Is Mitis not watching anymore?"
"No, this place just makes me sick."
"Senior, let's go."
Shen Gan also nodded.
"If Mitis and Fukagan say so..."
Ella turned around and prepared to leave the venue, but because of the wall of people standing behind her, she couldn't leave directly.
"With this amount... it would be difficult to push them away even with wind magic."
"Tsk."
Although she tried to squeeze through, the people she was squeezed by soon glared at her with impatience. Ella could only look at Mitis and Shen Gan, who, like her, were frowning because they couldn't get out of the crowd.
At the same time, the final battle on the field also began.
"The battle begins!"
Attracted by the voice, Ella subconsciously looked towards the venue. The fighter named Kanzaki Kagamika seemed to be a woman. Due to the high-intensity combat she had experienced in a short period of time, even her steps were a little unstable. Although the information from the low-level identification showed that she was a magic caster, the weapon she actually used was a dagger.
"Hmm? 'Rewind Time'? That's some magic I've never seen before."
In Kanzaki Kagamika's skill column, Ella discovered a magic she had never seen before.
"Using all of my magic power to revert my body to a certain point in time, wow, isn't that a pretty perverted skill?"
Even if you receive a fatal injury, you can immediately recover to your full state by using time rewind. In a real battle, this must be an excellent life-saving skill.
"Is it innate magic? If it's something you can learn, I really want Lotte and Angeline to learn it too. The reason they're able to win consecutive battles in such intense combat is probably because of the effects of 'Time Rewind'."
From a distance, you can see Kanzaki Kagamika using enhanced magic, but even so, it is no match for the liger in its complete state. It's like a child meeting an adult. It was just the first contact, and Kanzaki Kagamika was beaten away like a sandbag.
However, this is completely predictable. Not to mention that Kanzaki Kagamika is in poor physical condition, first of all, a level 9 human and a level 13 liger are not comparable. The disparity in strength has already determined Kanzaki Kagamika's fate. The Colosseum has never thought about letting Kanzaki Kagamika regain her freedom. The so-called promise of Prince Harry is only to make Kanzaki Kagamika have a little hope for the future and make her struggle more intense.
What happened next was just as everyone imagined. The muscular lion-tiger became sadistic because of his opponent's vulnerability. Instead of finishing off Kanzaki Kagamika with one blow, he treated her like a toy, kicking her to the ground and letting her stand up. He then stepped on her head and crushed her. Even though Kanzaki Kagamika had stopped moving, he had no intention of stopping.
"Well……"
Feeling disgusted from the bottom of her heart, Ella tried to calm herself down and told herself not to interfere.
"The winner is Liger!"
Not long after, the referee announced the outcome. The entire Colosseum was filled with cheers like a tsunami. Even the noble girls sitting on the first level were waving their hands to cheer for the Liger.
Ignoring the referee and Prince Harry's pronouncements, Ella's face was filled with displeasure at the dark side of the kingdom.
"Mitisi, Fukagan, let's go."
"Um."
Mitis lowered her head with some self-blame in her response, and then, without any regard for the feelings of the audience who were still immersed in joy, Ella took out the Fire Arrow, covered her body with enhanced wind magic, and ruthlessly pushed the audience away.
Since the audience were all gathered in the seats, there were few people in the aisles. Ella walked in front without saying a word, followed closely by Mitis and Shengan.
"……sorry."
"This isn't Mitis's problem."
"A barbaric country."
But Mitis did not forgive herself so easily. It was because she suggested that Ella accompany her to the Colosseum that this situation turned out to be the case - which made Ella unhappy. Mitis had never seen Ella with such an expression before, and the nervousness and anxiety almost overwhelmed her.
"Senior, are you going to go back directly?"
"No... I want to look somewhere else first."
Ella let out a long sigh. If she went back like this, she would probably pass her unhappy mood on to others. She didn't want her friends to worry about her.
With almost no obstruction, Ella and the other two quickly reached the outside of the Colosseum. Unlike the Colosseum which was still immersed in cheers, outside there was only the faint light of torches and the pitch-black night sky. Thick clouds covered the moon - it was going to rain.
Although the best option now was to go home directly, Ella still chose to calm down first.
"Mitis and Fukagan, please go back first. I want to go take a look inside the town."
"No, no, how could I leave you..."
"Well, wherever Senpai is, I'm there."
Giving a wry smile to the two's responses, Ella walked in the opposite direction of the Colosseum entrance—to reach the town, she had to go around the Colosseum first.
The huge Colosseum was built in the downtown area in the center of the city, so various alleys are also intricately connected together. Due to lack of management, these remote alleys are easily filled with foul odors. Kitchen waste and things that look like excrement pile up together, becoming a breeding ground for rats and flies. The entire alley is like a dye vat, making people walking in it feel that even their clothes will be stained with the stench.
Although the alley was pitch black, it did not stop the three people from moving forward silently. With the referee's shouts and the audience's cheers in the Colosseum as the background, Ella had already turned three or four intersections in a row.
Suddenly, Ella stopped and exhaled as if to expel all the foul air in her chest.
"Huh—let's go back."
"Um."
"Just leaving it here?"
"You're already dead, don't worry about it, you'll be eaten soon."
"makes sense."
"Don't come looking for me after you become a ghost. I don't want to do anything like that."
When Ella was about to go back, she heard two men whispering about twenty meters ahead. Because the moon was covered by thick clouds, the men did not notice Ella and the other two.
Stopping, Ella made a silencing gesture to Mitis and Fukagan.
Chapter 15 Encounter
"Prince Harry is truly a scoundrel. He actually promised this woman a fight with a liger. Even if the two of us were combined, we wouldn't be able to defeat a liger."
"Stop talking nonsense. Let's finish this quickly and go back to pray to the gods, or else all the bad luck will come to you."
"Yeah, she's supposed to be dead, right? The higher-ups say we can't let anyone who's still breathing go. If she shows up alive and kicking in front of Prince Harry, we'll be in big trouble."
"A few more stabs?"
As he spoke, the man covered his nose and lifted the rag he had thrown away earlier. Although the surroundings were dim, Ella could still make out a figure hidden inside.
"It stinks, how could it still be alive?"
The man made a sound as if he was about to vomit, and kicked the figure twice in disgust.
"Their bodies must have rotted before the battle. The cages are full of them."
"Ahh, it stinks, hurry up and go."
"Go back and take a good bath."
"You should tell your wife about your dreams."
With the creaking groan of the iron gate, the figures of the two men disappeared at the entrance of the alley.
Having also confirmed this, Fukagan looked at Ella.
"senior?"
"Um."
Ella approached the figure as quietly as possible. Her identification skills showed that the person who was abandoned - Kanzaki Kagamika was not completely dead, but if she was not treated, she would go to another world in a few minutes.
[Just now I was worried about whether those two would attack me again, but now it seems that was unnecessary.]
While feeling relieved, Ella also reached her destination - at first glance, it looked no different from an ordinary garbage dump, but when she lifted the rags on the surface, she could find a corpse hidden inside.
Without hesitation, Ella lifted the rag.
“Hmm…”
The smell of rotten eggs and decayed meat mixed with the smell of blood rushed into Ella's nose. If she hadn't been mentally prepared, she would have vomited immediately.
What appeared before him was a young woman with a shriveled body. Due to not eating for a long time, her limbs were shriveled like branches, and her half-naked body was covered in blood and purple bruises, animal claw marks and traces of human whipping. Her entire face was swollen to a purple-red color, and her facial features were shifted to varying degrees. It seemed that her long black hair was stained with blood and saliva, turning into a sticky mass. Her joints were shockingly bent from being beaten, and her chest was flat like a corpse.
No matter how you look at it, he's dead.
Even Mitis, who was used to battlefields, couldn't help but frown.
"Are you still alive?"
"Yes, there's still a trace of life left, but simple healing magic alone can't completely cure it."
The repositioning of joints and the conditioning of the body are not things that can be cured by healing magic, not to mention that there is a display of "rice husk poisoning" on Kanzaki Jinghua's status bar. In Ella's memory, the rice husk in this world is a kind of psychotropic drug. After eating it, people will not be afraid of pain and will be mentally excited. It is the main raw material for making "Magic Surge".
"Senior, you don't want to take it back?"
"Yes, her name is Kanzaki Kagamika. She's interested in something and wants to learn more about it."
"I knew this would be the answer."
Shen Gan sighed, seemingly not believing Ella's explanation at all.
"Well, before we take him back, let's give him some preliminary treatment and let the wounds on his body heal first..."
Taking out the Pestle of Heavenly Punishment from the warehouse, which could triple the healing effect, Ella used healing magic on the lifeless young woman in front of her. As before, a pale golden light illuminated the entire alley, and the wounds on the young woman's body gradually healed. However, considering that the joints must recover, Ella did not heal her all at once, but kept her HP at 30%. If the tendons of the limbs were healed before the joints returned to their original position, she would not be able to live a normal life in the future.
"I'm sorry, but can you take her back with you, Mitis?"
Since she had no suitable objects at hand, Ella could only take out a tablecloth from the storage and cover Kanzaki Kagawa, who showed no signs of waking up.
"It's no problem, just take a shower."
"Thanks."
"It's okay, it's okay. It's really nice of you to ask Ella for help."
If Ella asked me to do that, I wouldn't blame myself for what happened tonight.
"You haven't lost your mind even after being tortured like this? You seemed to be still sane when you were fighting the Liger just now."
"It's probably because of the medicine provided by the Colosseum. Has Fukaman learned any techniques for restoring joints?"
"I learned a little bit during my training as a bride, but it's not yet practical enough."
"No, it's enough to have learned it."
Given Shen Gan's personality, he must have mastered it long ago. Saying it is not practical is just a self-deprecating statement.
"My mana is almost gone. Did I use 'Time Rewind'? Or was it already depleted before I went on stage? No, let's wait until I get back."
Together with Fukama, they placed the skinny Kanzaki Kagamika on Mitis's back, and Ella and the other two turned around and prepared to go back the way they came.
crunch--
The sound of the iron door rang out again, accompanied by a very noisy voice.
"Prince, this path is not suitable for a noble man like you."
"Stop talking nonsense. I just want to get to the back street as soon as possible."
"That's right, tonight is our precious night, Prince-sama. We can't waste even a minute of it."
"prince."
"Wood, stop nagging like those old guys. If you don't want to go this way, go back first. I'll find you tomorrow morning."
"If the prince says so."
Quack, quack, quack——
The iron gate groaned harshly again, and when it closed with a "click", the only sound left in the alley was the women's bell-like banter.
but--
"In front, don't block the road."
The prince, turning the corner, soon spotted Ella and the other two walking in front of him. Although they were nearly twenty meters apart and were not blocking the way at all, an expression of impatience still appeared on the prince's drunken face.
"Ella."
"Get out of the way for now."
Ella shook her head at Mitis, stepped aside and stood by the wall, and Shen Gan and Mitis followed suit.
"As expected of you, Prince, you easily make these lowly people obey you."
