As Lin Lei fell to the ground, the entire arena fell into a deathly silence.

In the large stands directly opposite the arena, Emperor Titus took a sip of wine.

“He’s a warrior. Send him a doctor.”

With the emperor’s order, the doctor quickly appeared in the field, and the audience cheered. “Your Majesty is wise!”

“Long live the emperor!”

The nature of this gladiator fight was special. Although it was a gladiator fight, it was a performance for God.

It was a large-scale sacrificial ceremony.

Lin Lei’s group was just a sacrificial offering, and sacrificial offerings naturally did not have any chance of surviving. Dying on the battlefield was their predetermined script and fate.

However, since Emperor Titus had given the order to treat Lin Lei, that meant that Lin Lei had been pardoned.

After watching the legendary duel, none of the spectators wished for Lin Lei to die.

The results of the examination were quickly sent to the emperor. It was just pure exhaustion.

Before Titus could say anything, a young female voice came from behind him.

“That’s great!”

Titus frowned. He could not be more familiar with this voice, so he turned around and shouted to the passage behind him, “Come out, Lana!”

A pretty figure came out of the tunnel.

The girl was about 15 or 16 years old. She wore a soft hat on her head, which was inlaid with large and small amethyst stones. The largest one was the size of an egg. The cutting was complicated, and it shimmered brightly under the sun.

Talantum’s color was purple, and Titus, the emperor, was wearing a purple robe. The gemstones on it were much smaller than the ones on the girl’s soft hat.

The girl’s soft hat could be said to be exceedingly luxurious in Talantum, but they did not overshadow her appearance.

Her face was fair with delicate facial features, and her rose-petal-like lips formed a sharp contrast.

The girl stuck out her tongue. “I’m sorry, Dad.”

Titus’ anger quickly disappeared, and he could not get angry looking at his daughter’s face.

However, he still wanted to maintain his dignity as a father, so he reprimanded with a stern face, “Why did you come to the arena again?!”

Lana could clearly sense the gentleness in her father’s tone. She ran over shyly, “Dad, I just missed you.”

Regardless of whether these words were true or not, Titus was still very happy. He ordered a servant to bring over a veil for Lana to put on, then allowed Lana to sit down beside him.

Lana acted cutely for a while, then secretly changed the topic to Lin Lei.

“Father, that slave just now was so powerful. Should we take him into the palace as a guard?”

Titus’ expression showed that he was moved, but he quickly shook his head. “No, Lana. That’s a slave that Marcus captured.

“I can give him a very low compensation if I use him as an offering, but I can’t do that after he shows his potential.”

Titus said as he took a grape that Lana had peeled and chewed on it.

“He’s expected to be a gladiator who can make a lot of money. Although Marcus won’t claim ownership, he’ll definitely have an opinion if we try to recruit him.”

“Then why don’t we just give him a sum of money to buy that slave?” Lana’s little face lit up.

Titus glanced at Lana and laughed. “You’re the one who wants to buy him. Don’t say ‘we’.

“Lana, we can’t do this. We destroyed the orc tribe, so I don’t know how deep the hatred in his heart is.

“I won’t be at ease with such a person by your side. I won’t agree to this.”

Lana’s face was scrunched up as she grabbed Titus’ arm and shook it cutely.

“Daddy!

“I want him~”

Titus was about to go soft-hearted, but he did not say it directly. “No is a no. I won’t pay for this.”

However, Lana’s cuteness was still too powerful. In the end, he still softened his tone. “If you have the confidence to train this orc, I can allow him to be your slave.”

Before Lana could celebrate her victory, she heard Titus say, “However, this only means that I won’t stop you. Similarly, I won’t give you any support.

“If you want him, you’ll have to compensate Tullius yourself.”

Lana’s gem-like eyes were about to flash with light. “How much do I need to compensate?”

Titus asked the clerk to do some calculations, and he came up with a shocking number.

It would cost about 400,000 silver coins.

Even Titus was shocked by the number, let alone Lana. “Are slaves so expensive now?”

With this kind of status, he could enter the Council of Elders and become an elder.

The clerk hurriedly explained, “Your Majesty, an ordinary slave is only worth four silver coins, but a gladiator who can win steadily in the arena is worth at least 40,000 silver coins.

“This orc hasn’t fought many matches yet, so his value is still unknown. His value can only be calculated according to the top gladiators like Hermes.”

Titus looked at Lana and said, “Do you understand? if you want this orc, then pay this price.

“I know you have a small treasury. Whether you can buy it or not depends on your ability.

“Right, you’re not allowed to sell your jewelry!”

Lana gritted her teeth so hard that they were about to shatter. “It’s only 400,000! I’ll think of a way!”

Titus found this interesting and continued to tease Lana. “If this orc keeps winning, his value will exceed Hermes’, and it’ll be more than 400,000.

“Hahaha…”

The gladiators who were performing saw Titus laughing so happily and fought even harder.

‘His Majesty the emperor likes my performance!’

…

As for Lin Lei, he had no idea that a young woman had taken a liking to him.

After being forcefully fed lamb soup, he finally woke up from his exhausted state.

When he woke up, what he saw was not the huge prison cell that could hold hundreds of people but a pretty good room.

The furniture was decorated with complicated patterns, and the walls were made from carved marble. Even the floor was carpeted!

If it were not for the iron bars on the door as well as the toilet bowl next to it, Lin Lei would not even think of this as a prison cell.

“Where is this place?”

Lin Lei clutched his head, which was beginning to hurt, as he sat up on the bed.

The female slave outside the iron gate heard the movement in the room and peered in.

“You’re awake?”

The female slave was pleasantly surprised. Then, she ran away quickly.

Lin Lei did not have to wait for long before a man dressed in a long robe and a wool jacket appeared at his door.

The robe was lined with purple edges and blended with gold and silver threads, indicating the identity of the noble.

Click.

Squeak.

The iron gate opened with a slight sound, showing that it was commonly lubricated and maintained.

The person strode over to Lin Lei, his face slowly merging with a certain face in Lin Lei’s eyes.

“Let’s get to know each other again. I’m Tullius.

“Your… creditor.”
