Lenny was led back to the D Class after his meeting with the magistri.
He had wanted to cause total destruction, but unfortunately, things did not happen like he wanted them to.
then again, who could have thought that the Arena had such profound secrets?
This place was just a farm for breeding formidable warriors for demon battles and wars.
Lenny knew that the promise of freedom was always an illusion.
However, he had only thought that they would be taken for food once they were free.
He never knew that things were far more critical than that.
The gladiators that won the Arena lost their hearts to slave away for all eternity.
Now that he thought about it, it was a good thing that he sort to kill the magistri from the very beginning.
However, he had concluded that all he needed to do was destroy the Order of Gladiators for his revenge, Kill the magistri, and then kill every other demon in charge of this hell hole.
But now, things played out in a different light.
Once more, he was being used for another's agenda because of a lack of sufficient strength.
Lenny was not dumb, he could imagine that things were not as plain as the Magistri had made it to be.
For example, what was going to be his fate when Cuban found out that Lenny had tricked him.
Or what was going to happen when the Magistri got the Core of the Demon beast he wanted and he and the others like him got their freedom?
There was just too much uncertainty floating in the air for Lenny to let go.
He knew for a certain that if he did not take his life into his own hands for his freedom, then he was going to die.
After that day, Lenny did not go out into the Arena again.
However, he thought it time to enjoy the better privileges that the D class could provide him, and so he submitted his points for promotion.
Of course there were some in the D class that were from the order of the Gladiators and knew who he was an what he could do.
As much as possible, they avoided him.
However, some did not.
And although the magistri had told him not to stand out too much, Gladiators were such people that only believed in one thing, and that was Strength.
As one would expect, the only way to display this was through violence.
Besides, Lenny still had old issues from that one time he was part of the D class.
The moment lenny was led to the D class, the first thing he did was go get himself a meal.
Just like he had suspected, he met F999's mother serving the food.
This was the mother of the body he now occupied.
She was surprised to see her son well and alive and to add to that, he had his number D999 boldly written on his chest.
Lenny came to get his food and she waved at him, there were tears in her eyes to the sight of him.
This made Lenny sigh lowly.
He really was not ready to deal with this, and decided to let it go.
After all, he did not have plans to be here for long. Soon, he would be out and about.
However, as he collected his food, she added an extra scoop for him with a smile on her face.
Lenny was not bothered by this and was not one to complain for being given extra food.
Of course, the demons by the sides that were in charge of supervision noticed this. However, orders had long been given by the Magistri that Lenny should be allowed to get away with his excesses.
The other Gladiators on the queue noticed this privilege lenny enjoyed and it made many of them bitter.
After all, one needed to pay with points to get food, and extra points for more food.
However, Lenny had only come to the D class and he was already enjoying preferential treatment.
one of the gladiators behind him wanted to try his luck and also ask for more food, but instead got a disciplining from the Demons.
this made the Gladiators hate him more.
lenny took his food and walked over to the only table in the D class.
He took his seat and began his meal. This took the other gladiators by shook.
Some of these gladiators could recognize Lenny from the last time he had been in the D class.
They knew that he knew the rules.
Only the top three in terms of strength were allowed to sit on this particular table and Lenny very much did not fit that description. At least that was what they thought.
One gladiator in particular had her eye on Lenny.
Every Class in the Arena had its culture.
Of course, a lot of them were similar. But many changed the higher one went.
Even F999's mother panicked when she saw Lenny who was a new comer suddenly going to sit at the table of the top three.
As Lenny ate, D4022 walked over to the table.
"You know, I have waited and prayed Day and night that you get your skinny ass back here, and now, my prayers have been answered faster than I thought."
However, lenny pretended as if she was not existing and continued his food.
"Hey!"
*Boom!* She slammed her hand on the table.
Lenny's eyes moved. He could see that she was missing a pinky on one hand.
He nodded and looked up to her, "hmmm! actually, I remember you."
Lenny cracked a slight smile, as he looked at her one eyed face.
Lenny had been the one that took that one eye.
"You know what, I also remember how things happen in this class, so I'll make things easier for you. How about we do this? Why don't you leave behind your other eye and i'll let you go."
Lenny's voice was not so audible, but everyone in the hall had definitely heard what he said.
"-"
"-"
"-"
The gladiators in the hall stared at him like they were looking at a fool.
At least those that were not of the Order of gladiators did.
lenny had just come into the D class as a newbie.
He was supposed to be paying homage to those that had been here before him, and here he was demanding for an eye.
As far as anyone was concerned, he was a fool.
However, Lenny did not break eye contact with D4022.
At first She had a cocky look on her face. But soon, she suddenly felt as if she was not looking at a young man but rising beast.
It was like a flash vision. She suddenly saw Lenny turn into a horrific beast with big head, red skin and teeth like that of a shark's.
She suddenly felt like a mouse trying to challenge the might of a hunter.
This did not mean that Lenny changed at all. It was plainly her instinct towards danger screaming in alarm for her life.
She wanted to take a step back, but she suddenly felt as if the danger increased.
If she was to take that step. Without a doubt, the smiling man before her was going to rip her to shreds. At least that was what her mind told her.
"didn't you hear him!?" a deep voice was suddenly heard, "drop a fucking eye!"
D4022 was suddenly kicked to the ground.
Lenny turned to the person that had kicked her.
This was a face he recognized very well. After all, he was the first person he had seen eat another person in this place.
It was none other than D800.
He took D4022's head and slammed it on the table.
Lenny took a look at the head before his eyes, "if i don't teach you a lasting lesson, you will never learn."
Lenny stretched in and inserted his fingers in her one good eye. As he did, she screamed loudly, and even cried for the demons to come help her.
However, they pretended not to see what was happening. After all, it concerned Lenny. The Magistri had given specific orders to allow his excesses.
Even though he had told lenny to lay low, the Magistri knew that it was not very possible.
It was like asking the sky the sun to shine green light.
Lenny pulled out the eye and dropped it on his plate.
D800 pushed D4022 to the side.
She wailed on the ground. She had effectively been blinded.
Everyone knew what fate she would suffer. She would be sent to the F class to become breeding material for demons.
Lenny smiled as he took the Eye ball he had just stolen to his mouth.
Lenny was not a cannibal, and was never interested in eating human flesh, but he knew how authority worked in this place.
the Crunching sounds were audible for all to hear.
And then Lenny Swallowed...
