Chapter 665: Easy victory
Jayden had already moved towards the end of the crowd and was standing the furthest away from the lion, who seemed to possess some level of intelligence, it looked over all the humans and then with a loud roar the beast finally waved one of its claws towards them.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*
” Aaaaaaaah P- Please God have mercy on us, we have sob sob never done a- anything wrong ahhhh we d- daily offer prayers to you, sob sob please let us live I have a family. ”
With just a wave of its claw, the lion had killed more than twenty of the men, the remaining were trembling even more as the blood, meat and organs were splattered all around even Jayden got some blood on his body.
But no one came to answer their prayers, even the audience seemed to be bored since they had died so easily without even trying to fight back, but many were still excited to see people die.
‘ What kind of twisted place this is, just like their fake gods the people here have become like that, they can’t even think that tomorrow it could even be them or their family who would be thrown into the arena like that. ‘
Jayden thought as he kept moving back, increasing the distance between himself and the lion.
In the next moment the Namean Lion killed the remaining men with another wave of its claw, in just a matter of few seconds so many lives have been lost and all that for the entertainment of some self righteous bastards.
Then the gaze of the lion moved towards the only survivor in the arena, who was simply standing some distance away with an even chilly aura around him, for a moment the lion seemed to hesitate after all Jayden is a true dragon.
The natural instincts of the Namean Lion told it about the overwhelming strength that its opponent possess, but after staying in this place for so long and being treated in such a disgraceful manner, becoming a way of entertainment for these people.
The lion had long lost its reasons, its expression became bloodthirsty and it charged towards Jayden with all its strength.
Seeing the approaching Namean lion Jayden instantly turned around and began to run away from it, the collosium was quite big Jayden was not displaying his real physical abilities, the crowd finally got a little more excited after seeing that someone was actually trying to survive.
‘ Haa I want to kill the entire audience along with this fucking lion, any way how long do I have to survive against this beast? ‘ he asked as he ran without even glancing back.
” A little longer than an hour, if you can survive that long then they will stop the lion after which you will be put back into your cell, and then you will have to fight another creature or person next day.
By the way, this creature will run away from this place in the future and will be killed by the god of strength. ” Anna explained though Jayden was in no mood to listen.
When Jayden arrived near the wall the Namean Lion was just behind him ready to take a bite at his flesh, Jayden ran over the wall and made a back flip and landed over the back of the lion, as its face collided against the wall.
The lion looked around in confusion since it was sure that it had successfully eaten the prey but Jayden had disappeared at the last moment and was now nowhere to be seen, while Jayden sat comfortably over the back of the lion without making any movements.
The intelligence of this beast was not yet fully developed and staying here like some toy had greatly enraged it making the lion lose all its reasons, so it couldn’t understand anything when it was not about to find Jayden in the entire collosium.
The crowd was surprised and became silent, although there are no rules in the arena but if Jayden passed the round like this then it would be so boring for them all, even after a couple dozen minutes had passed Jayden was just sitting comfortably while the lion kept walking all over the arena to find him.
” What are you doing? Get down and properly fight that beast, or I will come down there and kill you before the Namean Lion can do anything. ”
Nikos shouted from the high platform, he took a long whip from his waist and began to wave it in the air.
Jayden didn’t want to speak otherwise the lion would be aware of his presence instead he showed a middle finger towards Nikos and with the other hand he gestured for him to come down into the arena if he had the guts.
Placing both of his hands over the back of the lion Jayden was using Demonic devouring arts and energy was flowing into his body, the lion did not possess any kind of special energy and depended totally on its physical strength.
So when Jayden felt energy flow into his body from the lion he was actually turning the flesh and blood of the lion into energy and since there was no pain in doing so, the lion itself did not notice anything wrong, of course the other only thought that Jayden was just resting carelessly.
Nikos gritted his teeth he knew that the gods won’t be happy with this type of development and if that happened then they might give him the worst possible death, looking towards Jayden who had his eyes closed Nikos stretched his whip backwards before shooting it towards Jayden with all his strength.
” If I could remove him from the beast back then everything would be fine, this damn insect I’m going to kill him with my hands after the match even if he did survive. ” He mumbled.
*BANG*
Jayden could easily sense the whip coming towards him so he yawned and lay back just a moment before the whip hit him, so instead the whip hit the fur of the Namean Lion, making it growl in anger.
Although the whip didn’t hurt him one bit but the lion was already annoyed since it couldn’t find Jayden, and now someone was attacking it from so far away, when the whip was moving back the lion bit it and pulled the whip with all its strength.
Nikos was caught off guard and since he had a firm grip on one end of the whip so he was instantly pulled down along with it and was thrown directly into the centre of the arena.
” Bravo, the announcer himself decided to face off this wild beast what a brave man. ” Jayden shouted without caring since the whole crowd was shouting.
” Fuck, how the hell- ”
*ROOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR*
Before Nikos could even speak the lion madly charged towards him, reacting instantly the strange looking announcer threw his whip once again hoping to hit the eye of the beast.
But because of the speed of the moving beast, he was only able to hit the forehead, without looking back he began to run away and decided to use the same tactic as Jayden after all he was no match for this wild creature.
