I Became a Gladiator in the World of Gender Reversal - I Became a Gladiator in the World of Gender Reversal chapter 12

12 – Selam-7

“So. Do you know how good my girlfriend is to me right now? She doesn’t put pressure on her to bed, and her body is pretty.”

“It’s great. You, your ex-girlfriend, cursed a lot. That’s why I told you to get rid of it quickly, right?”

“I was just unnecessarily jealous. He knew how to uselessly threaten me with money, even though he had a low social status.

“So, I told you the way the pony goes and the golden carriage comes. Well, you’ve been patient for a long time. You too.”

Officially, it was a common resting room, but entering this place made me feel uncomfortable at all.

The words of those ‘ordinary Selam men’ talking casually were enough to eat away at my mental strength.

Well, that will be the last.

“Are you really going to do that?”

Adrian asked me in a worried voice.

“It can’t be helped. This is the only way.”

Actually, if I worked hard to find a way to win her heart, another way might have come out.

However, my head was occupied by a ‘crazy idea’ that I came up with yesterday while researching books. In order to realize that, I had no choice but to come out of this place.

“They say they are in a different world from me, so I have no choice but to enter that world.”

Actually, it’s a bit scary.

Outside of Selam, what value does the existence of the country have?

I could spend a whole day swearing at the men who lived here, but it was a self-evident fact that Selam itself was paradise. It’s a world where you don’t have to work and don’t have to do anything.

Although I have not personally visited, Selam itself supports the meeting place with women.

According to Adrian, women eager to get into the eyes of men come dressed up in beautiful clothes and with the best presents.

He said that he didn’t have to choose anyone, just going out to such a place and talking for tens of minutes was enough.

Trying to leave such a good place on your own might be coming, as Adrian said.

“Do you know how dangerous it is outside? If it were you, you would know better than anyone else!”

Still, the distance between me, Adrian, and other men was wide enough. Because the break room was too wide to pass by.

“All the women outside are mad with lust. One time you were lucky enough to survive, but the next time? What if there wasn’t a gladiator who saved you?”

Well, I wasn’t wrong. From now on, I’ll have to be careful not to fall asleep on the street.

“A man can’t walk these streets safely. That’s why Selam is there. Please… Think again.”

“But, is everyone living like that?”

“What?”

Adrian looked at me as if he couldn’t understand.

“They were bullies. Even if I had been a woman… Well, I wouldn’t have been in danger of getting f*cked, but my wallet would have been robbed or I would have been beaten for resisting.”

“That’s…”

“Rather, if I were a woman, I might have died on the spot.”

I fought with all my might, but the fact that I fought without dying against dozens of bullies with weapons was a miracle in itself.

They didn’t want to inflict fatal wounds on me.

I would have thought that it would be okay to cut off my legs or arms, but at least I didn’t put the dagger right into my head or neck.

“I just need to be careful and be strong.”

Adrian took my words seriously. He didn’t seem convinced, but he felt lucky to be able to have a conversation like this with a man from Selam.

“…Actually, I wanted to ask you from the first day I met you.”

“What?”

“Aren’t you afraid of women?”

Adrian spoke to me in a subdued voice.

“When I first heard about it, I thought she was exaggerating. It’s scary, isn’t it? Because when a woman attacks with a weapon in hand, we can’t resist. If we make a mistake, we’ll die.”

“…”

“By the way, that’s what you thought from the beginning. You weren’t afraid to die…”

“There’s no way I wouldn’t be afraid of dying. If I go out this time, I’ll be really careful.”

Adrian cut me off coldly.

“I wish the men of Selam… Had a little more courage. They talk like they can do anything, but they’re all anxiety patients.”

“Why?”

“Everyone here is afraid of dying. Me too.”

“Me too.”

“Because other people are afraid to even go out of Selam. The biggest punishment that can be given to a man here is deportation.”

Well, I thought that in a society where men are treated favorably like this, men would not be executed.

“It’s rare to get exiled without assaulting another man.”

I scratched my head.

“I don’t think I’m as courageous as you think. Well, I’m just taking it.”

“What are you willing to risk? Is that woman worth it?”

“Sometimes I started to dislike Selam… In fact, if she hadn’t been worth that much, I wouldn’t have liked her from the start, right?”

I read Adrian with a smile. He seemed to have finally calmed down and let out a quick breath.

“To find the value of being a gladiator, is it because you are a barbarian after all? You have a different perspective, don’t you?”

And Adrian wasn’t the only one who heard my last words.

“I really wonder what the jewelry she will bring you will look like. I don’t know, but I don’t think I can tell it apart from the pebbles on the sidewalk.”

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Logan was approaching behind me before I knew it. The men following him burst into laughter at his joke.

“I heard rumors. You said you were kicked by a gladiator? Gee, she shouldn’t have thought of that woman either. Wouldn’t beer and potatoes be a waste to meet someone like you?”

It didn’t take a day or two for Logan to argue with me. Every time Adrian held my arm tightly and signaled me to endure it, I somehow endured it.

However, I have already decided to leave Selam. I didn’t want to bow down to him now.

A man named Logan, what kind of words would he react the most to?

“But, no matter how much I was, it was a bit unfortunate that a man like me suffered like that. So, why don’t you politely apologize for the rudeness you did to me?”

“Shut up, Logan!”

Adrian got angry instead. It seemed that he thought that he was holding back his anger by forcing himself to think about me.

“You finally talk to me, Adrian. But now, sadly, I’m talking to Evan.”

Laughing lightly, Logan brought out words of ridicule that even a dull person like me would be able to notice.

“If you apologize for your rudeness, can I assign you one or two extra girls?”

“Logan, you really…”

In my opinion, Logan seemed to be enjoying the look of Adrian’s contempt and anger.

“It’s not that hard, is it? It’s a chance to bow your head once and meet a girl who is a little better than your level.”

Thinking deeply, I bent down with a restrained gesture. He bowed his head in front of Logan.

“Uh… Huh? You’re quicker than you think to grasp the situation?”

Logan was taken aback for a moment, but then smiled in victory.

“I’m so sorry!”

“Uh, yes. Well done. That’s enough, so now…”

At the sound of my confident voice, Logan realized that things were not serious and tried to leave.

“My eyes are dark! Mr. Logan! I didn’t know that he was a 38-year-old man!”

When I slightly raised my eyes and looked at his face, I could tell that he was clearly angry.

“…What?”

“Sorry, Mister! I, only twenty-five years old, was rude to my 38-year-old Uncle Logan!”

From noble mtl dot com

Anger wells up in his face. I hoped this would work. His expression is distorted, he is unable to control the energy pouring out of his body and is flinching.

“From now on, I will act politely, befitting a 38-year-old Uncle Logan!”

The fact that being old can act as a complex for men in this world was a fact that Adrian had heard beforehand.

However, the opponent is Logan. He is a man who has the Crown Princess as his lover, and is in fact a reserve bureau chief.

Is the word ‘uncle’ destructive in this world, enough to be eaten by such a person?

“This, how dare he…”

Maybe he caught my laughing laugh, he was filled with rage.

“Despise me like that! A mere savage, even a primitive man! How dare you have a body devoid of dignity, a body that will be raped like garbage by bullies on the street!”

“Oh, your words are too harsh. They say that people get ugly if they don’t use dignified words as they get older.”

I smiled and stirred Logan’s emotions, who were very angry.

“This bastard!!!”

However, I didn’t expect him to be like this.

Logan’s outstretched palm passed over my face.

“…Ah?”

His cheeks were hot. A hot feeling filled his left cheek.

Logan was looking at me with a triumphant face as he slapped me.

“Did you think you could write such degrading words to me, the Crown Princess’s lover, and get away with it? Now, talk more.”

I didn’t know that I could use violence so easily. Even so, I never thought that he would stand still, looking at me confidently.

I wrapped my arms around the hot cheeks and grinned.
