Chapter 87 Back To The Arena...
Another fight was drawing to a close and the Demons were ever excited for the glorious entertainment that the chaos of fights provided.
Deep within the ground. Beneath the rumbling ground of the Arena, so much activities happened in many of the class areas.
In a particular class area, the Gladiators were training hard to the supervision of a Demon instructor.
This was instructor Bodat.
The frog looking demon was ever strict with his tutoring and even lashed his whip from time to time.
Whipping the Gladiators into shape for their slacking.
At another corner, some human women were in labor. Producing more children that would serve as food or as gladiators for entertainment.
In yet another part, some gladiators had spent their points on acquiring F class females that they could spend their time on.
They pounded the women over and over again. Making sure that they got the worth of their points from the sensual pleasure the women provided.
In yet another part, deep within the caves that formed the underground area that the demons occupied as their own resting area, Some demons were having fun with both human males and females.
Some of them were mating with them, while some other humans were placed on a big stick that went into their nether regions and out their mouths.
The Demons slowly roasted them over a fire like pigs.
All these things went through Lenny\'s senses. With Magic points, he could spread his sensing ability to a very wide reach.
His Magic points went down slowly. But it was not enough. He needed the perfect route back into the Arena.
Suddenly, his senses went to an even further place. This was a room just beyond the area where the demons stayed. it was sealed shut with a big, strong metal door.
On it, was Written: Magistri.
Lenny remembered how terrifying the Magistri was. In fact, even the demons feared him. However, just out of Curiosity, he wanted to see what was behind this door.
His senses went past the metal door. However, the moment it did, he came across a pair of deep red eyes, "Who are you!?"
*Pow!*
He felt as if he had been smacked back physically.
Lenny opened his eyes. He coughed out a bit of blood to the side. But it was not just his mouth. Even his nose, eyes and ears all leaked of blood.
Apparently, he was still not as strong to face that guy. This was something he had to take note off as he moved forward.
Meanwhile, the Magistri hissed lowly. he looked around and noticed there was no one there. "Maybe its just me!" he turned his head and went about his business.
Lenny rested a while. His injuries were not that bad, but this was a lesson he had learnt. After all, he had gotten quite brazen and cocky since he entered the demon Rank.
All the while, he had passed his senses through the other demons and nothing had happened. But the moment he got to this magistri, his life had become in danger.
Lenny sighed, as he sent his senses once more.
This time around, he avoided the Magistri\'s area as much as possible.
His senses went to a much deeper reagion. Only just arriving here, he instantly recognized the place.
This was the F class area.
He could see as those of the F class worked hard. The F class was in charge of basicaly keeping the other classes running properly.
They planted the food which were mushrooms that were later mushed and served to the gladiators as food.
They were also in charge of taking care of the newborns and children until they reached a fighting age.
And lastly, they were used as pleasure materials.
At the moment, A good number of them were tiling the ground.
Lenny smiled. This was his target.
....
"I want to get strong and get out of this place," a young boy farming the ground whispered to his fellow mate.
"I heard that if we become strong enough, we can reach A class and get our freedom to the outside world." The other boy nodded in agreement.
"Yes! i heard that too. Even the demons talk about it." The first boy added.
"I heard that in the outside world, we can eat as much Mushroom paste as we want and that we don\'t have to pay for it with points."
"Really!?" The second boy had his eyes wide open in surprise.
"Yes! I heard that there are big Mushrooms. Erm... yes! I remember it now. There are called trees."
The first boy rubbed his stomach, "that would be so nice. I didn\'t get enough Mushroom paste this morning. I gave the remaining to my mother. She is sick and has not eaten for days."
The second boy sighed. He placed his hand into his pocket and then he brought out a small wrapping the size of five pebbles. He looked around to make sure that none of the demon supervisors could see them, and then opening the wrap, he brought out a small black lump.
This black lump had a stink to it, and it was obvious that it had been in the boy\'s pocket so long that it was about to go bad.
However, both boys looked at it with obvious desire in their hearts.
This was a lump of meal.
Both boys looked at it and it made them swallow hard.
"Don\'t worry! you are my friend. I can share a little with you."
However, just then, the boys felt a presence behind them and immediately turned about.
Unfortunately, it was as they feared.
It was Demon.
"Hmmm! What do we have here!?" the demon snatched the black lump, "so you little maggots have the guts to take food out of the meal hall. I am sure you know that this is an offence. No meals can leave the hall."
As the demon talked, the boys stood stricken with fear.
they swallowed hard. They both knew what was going to come next. After all, it was common knowledge that taking meals out of the Meal Hall was against the rules.
The punishment for disobedience was two days without food and double the work.
The demon had what looked like a snake head. As it talked, it hissed from time to time.
It enjoyed the despair in their eyes.
"Both of you will be getting punished for this!" The demon hissed again. It waited a few seconds to allow tension to build and then it sighed lowly.
"You know what? I\'m feeling a bit generous today," the demon had a solemn look on its face, "so I\'ll do you both a favour. If you tell me who brought this out of the meal hall, I will let you go without punishment, and even allow you to eat it!"
Those words took the boys by surprise.
They both looked at each other and contemplated whether to talk or not.
The Demon saw the look in their eyes and knew without a doubt, these two were definitely going to break and snicth each other.
The demon already had a cocky smile on its face.
These children were of the F class area.
One of the roles of the demons in this Class area was to teach the children. Of course, this included sowing deep levels of distrust for one another.
This would make it difficult for them to trust one another in the future.
The demon could see that only a little more push and they would break.
"I will count to ten. If any body talks before then, I\'ll let you go and you get to eat this."
The demon started his count, 1
2,
3,
4....
He had gotten to eight, and he could see that boy number one\'s mouth was already opening. without a doubt, he was going to break.
9... and
"It was hi..."
*BOOM!*
there was suddenly an explosion from beneath their feet.
The Demon was taken back by this and moved several steps back. So did the boys.
All of a sudden, there was a hole in the ground.
Dust went out in all directions, and some other demons attracted by the noise rushed for their direction.
The dust slowly cleared and a person covered in cuts and blood all over his body came out of the Hole.
This took everybody by surprise.
However, there was suddenly a large number of giant bugs rushing out from within the hole.
Immediately, The demons set out to work, killing the bugs.
"Seal the Hole," a demon instructed and the other demons immediately responded.
A while later, the hole was sealed and all the insects killed.
The person that had come out of the hole was passed out on the ground.
From the looks of it, he had fought for his life through all those giant bugs to find a way out.
The snake demon turned him over. He could see a tag on the chest of the person. It wrote: E999
