《YOLO?》Chapter 26
Advertisement
So I've been hearing complaints *cough, cough Umar65 and others cough cough* That my chapters are too short (like my penis). So I will try(I will try my best) to lengthen my chapters(like my penis). It will probably affect the amount of times I post chapters though.
Here's another chapter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 220 continued
"Hey did you guys hear? I heard that the Demon King is gonna watch our match today!"- Male Gladiator 1
"Well it's not like he's gonna free you."-Female gladiator 1
"Yeah that's right. He's gonna see how awesome I am and hire me as his own personal guard."-Demon Male Gladiator
"In your dreams."-Female gladiator 2
"I'm gonna whip all yo asses, so get ready."-Male Gladiator 2
I overheard those guys talking.
'This must be my chance to impress the Demon King.'
The gates to the arena open as I hear the announcer announce us to the crowd of spectators.
"And now I present to you the new batch of gladiators of this month making their debut fight today!"-Announcer
We go up the ramp and enter the arena. The crowd cheers and there are thousands of them. I'm scared at being watched by thousands of spectators, it's a bit nervewrecking.
"And now a round of applause for the veteran gladiators that will be facing the newbies!"-Announcer
The crowd cheers and the veteran gladiators enter the arena from the other side of the stadium.
"As you are all familiar with the gladiators will fight to the death until there are only 20 left standing alive.
On our side we mostly have humans except for the one tiger beast man, the dark elf, the normal elf, and one demon and we have about 5 children including Ran and I.
The other side has 5 beastmen that I can count and a few elves dwarves and humans. They intend to slaughter us....
Us the newbies were only allowed to bring one weapon. I see that our enemies were allowed to bring as many as they wanted.
That dark elf that won his fight with the bow brought his bow again. WTF. He doesn't have any arrows. I hope he dies for being cocky.

The trumpeteers blew on their trumpets as the sound filled the arena which began the fight.
Ran and I stuck close to each other as the battle ensued around us.
We were attacked by an dwarf. I thought it was funny seeing dwarf run up to us waving his axe and screaming his warcry.
I was stupid and let my guard down. I tried to block his blow with my glaive. I almost died because I didn't know how strong those fucking dwarves were. His blow crumpled me to my knees. As he was about to swing again Ran saved my by quickly gutting him and he died.
I nodded at her in thanks and we tried to get to the edges of the arena where there was less fighting and less of a chance of getting involved in a fight.
We got to the edges of the stadium and saw the kid with white hair ...'Ptolemy I think was his name.' was slaughtering everyone that came after him... even the newbie gladiators. The tiger beast man was rolling on the ground wrestling the crocodile beast man that he fought when he first got here. The dark elf was choking a man with his bow.
While Ran and I were distracted watching the fight we didn't notice the man coming up behind us. Luckily the man was stupid and yelled before he swung at Ran.
"AAAHH!!"-Gladiator
I quickly jumped to Ran and pushed her out of the way. He cut my left eye.
"Aaaahhh!!"-Me
I fell down cupping my left eye in pain. Ran just looked stunned. As I was writhing in pain the man was about to finish me off Ran stopped spacing out and quickly threw her sword at him.
The sword went into his chest and he died.
I tore off a piece of my shirt and used it as an eye patch to stop the bleeding. 'Fuck... If only I could use magic, I would fuck all these niggas up.'
The fight ended in about 15 minutes and we went back down the rampart as the crowd cheered for the survivors.
The tiger beast man won his fight against the crocodile beast man by strangling him to death. The dark elf just stayed alive by whacking his opponents with his boy. Ptolemy just killed everyone around him while laughing like a maniac. He is the one that killed most of the people in the fight.

There were 12 veterans and 8 newbies. I was sent to the healer as Ran followed me.
"We can't do anything about this eye. You have to live like this for the rest of your life."-Healer
Ran cried and I hugged her.
"It's okay Ran don't worry about it I'm still alive."-Me
She just kept crying and muttering "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Eventually she drifted off into sleep.
I left her in the infirmary and went to get something to eat. My left eye socked ached.
I was eating a piece of bread as the tiger beast man came up to me. He had scratches all over his body. Nothing that looked serious.
"Looks like you had a tough time out there. I saw what you did for you little girlfriend and I think that was very brave of you considering where we're at."-Tiger Beast man
I just nod my head.
"My name is Hanson. Nice to meet you."-Hanson
"My name is Regis nice to meet you Hanson and Ran is not my girlfriend."-Me
"Did you just call me handsome? I know I'm handsome everyone says that."-Hanson
I choose to ignore him and he eventually leaves me. He seems like a nice guy but I'm tired and want to sleep.
I go back to the infirmary and wake up Ran and tell her that I'm gonna go to sleep and she nods her head in confirmation and just goes back to sleep. I sleep next to her. I haven't done that in a while.
Day 221
We didn't have to fight today. Turns out you only have to fight once a week but you can sign up for more fights if you want.
My left eye socked was seriously aching in pain today and I had the healer use some magic to dull the pain.
I train all day. Now that my left eye is gone I have to train cause I have a blind spot not. It's really tough cause my training instructor keeps on aiming for my blind spot. But I don't mind because it will help me survive.
Day 228
A week has passed by and it is time again for me to please the audience. I have slowly grown accustomed to my left eye being gone. Though it is still a disadvantage I think I can survive. I wear an eye patch now.
Now that us newbie gladiators have survived our first fight we now have to fight solo one on one against our opponent. You still have a possibility of surviving the fight if the masses decide to let you live. But the crowd comes here to see blood so that probably won't happen.
I saw that a new group of newbies came today.
My opponent was a dwarf. The trumpet sounded for our fight to begin. I rushed towards him first. (The first to make a move wins after all.) I swing my glaive downward at his head as he blocks with his axe. (most dwarves use axes.)
He didn't expect me to attack first but quickly regains his balance. He keeps on moving to my left side, trying to gain and advantage.
It's nothing I didn't expect but it's still a pain in the ass blocking and dodging attacks when you're half blind.
He eventually screws up by falling on a stone on the ground and I don't miss my chance to decapitate him.
The crowd cheers at my victory and I walk back down.
It is Ptolemy's turn next. The white haired red eyed kid gives me the creeps. It turns out that the kid has been fighting every single day and killed everyone that fought him.
The crowd loves him as they cheer for him as he enters the stadium. He apparently got a nickname as The Albino who uses two daggers to fight.
Gladiators are not allowed to watch each other fight in the arena.
I head down to the resting area and go to sleep.
I'm thinking of doing a timeskip
