I Became a Gladiator in the World of Gender Reversal - I Became a Gladiator in the World of Gender Reversal chapter 31

31 – Breaking the Illusion-2

Florence stood on top of a small ring, wearing an overly thin outfit.

“Wearing clothes like this, how can you seduce a man…”

Even if she couldn’t even open her mouth in front of her man, she could see that this was nonsense.

As the second daughter of an aristocratic family, she could proudly say that she was ‘the closest to a man’ in her own way.

“Are you ready?”

“Yes, yes! It’s over!”

So, she knew to some extent what men like and dislike.

You can’t wear revealing clothes. Men hate women who look vulgar.

More importantly than that, the clothes should look ‘beautiful’. At least it had to look expensive.

When a woman feels that she can spend enough money, a man can reach out to her with confidence.

“Ugh…”

From her point of view, this risqué armor had many problems wherever she looked.

Armor that barely covers the chest and bottom, like chain mail worn over underwear. If a man saw it, he would frown and turn his head as soon as he saw it.

“Actually, seducing a man with a fight itself is problematic, but…”

From noble mtl dot com

Sword fighting was literally a woman’s play. Far from decent men, a game where sweat and blood flow.

Since it was to seduce a man who came to like it and became a gladiator, it seemed like there was no need to worry about that part.

“Then, let the sword fight begin!”

When Marcia first tried to become a gladiator, she wasn’t expecting a fight like this.

In a comfortable and comfortable environment, calmly share the opportunity to talk to a man, and after a romantic fight with him, you might be able to sprout love.

However, it was not something that could be ignored that said that ‘there are too many new gladiators’ and that only some of them could enter the Colosseum. She raised a sword.

“Okay, I can…”

It was a bit different from sword fighting, but she was also a famous duelist.

Her long, sharp rapier and heavy, clunky longsword had a different feel to hold, but the fighting experience didn’t disappear anywhere.

However, the opponent was also formidable. It wasn’t that long ago that murder disappeared in sword fighting.

For older women, sword fighting was ‘fun to watch sometimes, but risky with her life if her daughter said yes’.

Of course, there was no choice but to be filled with people who were confident in their skills.

The person in front of her was also a mercenary. It will not be an easy opponent.

“Haaa!!!”

But Florence charged at her, her sword loaded with her courage, her hopes, her lust and her delusions.

For her, a rosy future ahead of her.

“No, did you lose again? You mean you didn’t hit me once again?”

“So, you say the sword is too honest?”

Sitting on top of the ring and breathing heavily, I gulped down the water I had prepared earlier.

“Are you tired already?”

“No, we can fight another day or two if we want to fight. But, we can’t see any hope.”

It hasn’t been long since I entered the Colosseum. However, my body was somehow being built.

A training tool, it was definitely less than a modern object.

However, since I wasn’t determined to build a body like a modern bodybuilder, there were many items that could be used by sacrificing a little safety.

Even now, I was able to withstand the attack. It didn’t allow fatal blows, so if it was a shock like a stabbing wooden sword, I could endure it all day long.

However, there was no progress.

If you hit something, you should have a counterattack, if you hit something and endure it, as you endure it, but in this state, it seemed like you would literally be hit until you died.

“Really, have you never systematically learned the sword?”

“Before I came here, I had never caught one before…”

“As expected, men are men. But, shouldn’t we be pushed by the new kids?”

“If I’m weak, I lose, well.”

In the first place, there was no reason to win or lose at once. My goal was to be Dana, not to maintain this gladiator position.

“Still, I think I should start practicing swordsmanship in earnest…”

There was a limit to random training. Apparently, I might have to owe Dana again.

However, there was no time to lie down right away.

“Are you going to rest?”

“No, strength training.”

“Isn’t that enough?”

The gladiator standing in front of me told me with a puzzled face.

“If you wear armor, you will have to move twice as slowly as you fought today. You have to do it even if you don’t want to.”

After putting the wooden sword back in place, I led my body once again to train my lower body.

“…As expected, nothing suspicious.”

Iris, the crown princess, slowly read the report of hers that came up in front of her.

“I don’t know what to say to Logan. I boasted that something would come out.”

Her agent in front of her was silent, watching her reaction.

“It’s a closed space. Is there any chance that there’s something other than what we knew?”

“I can’t boast, but… The gladiators inside are distributing information like water.”

There was no need to carry out a high-level operation, just buy a few drinks for the gladiators at the bar, and information that was unknown to non-insiders leaked out.

Excluding the exaggeration, most of their testimonies were consistent.

“It is unknown whether there is a special operation going on inside… But at least, it is an obvious fact that he is active as a gladiator.”

“Ha, that was true?”

She still remembered the creepy laugh he showed at the end.

“Was the gladiator we put in able to enter?”

“Not yet. After Evan’s gladiator fight was revealed, the number of aspirants to become a gladiator increased rapidly. It seemed that they, too, had no intention of receiving that many aspirants at once.”

“What’s the outlook?”

“There shouldn’t be any difficulty in infiltrating the inside. It was said that the promotion method was determined by a gladiator fight between reserve gladiators.”

“Whoa.”

“As long as they don’t change their words, it’s expected to go smoothly.”

It was a good news, but Iris’ expression showed no signs of improving.

“Well, it’s rude to say this, but… It seems difficult to meet Logan’s request.”

“I will explain that part on my own. Good job. Let’s go.”

After sending her agent away, Iris quietly pulled out and put on her new clothes.

She thinks it’s a luxury if she’s normal, and she won’t even take it out and put it on easily.

However, I had no choice but to wear it when I met Logan. Because if she didn’t wear this kind of clothes, his face would frown the moment he saw her.

Iris left her office and walked to Logan’s quarters. A sigh intervened between her steps.

“This is Iris, Logan. May I come in?”

“Did you bring the good news?”

“…”

As her princess, there were not many people who could commit her disrespect like this.

But Logan was a man, even royalty. Even if she was the crown princess, he had no choice but to be patient.

Iris opened the door and had to face Logan, who frowned.

“So, what happened. What about that dirty man?”

“Unfortunately, my expectations were wrong. I couldn’t find any evidence that he was colluding with an enemy of the Empire-“

Before she could finish her words, Logan threw a cushion.

The sensation of something jolting her face, even if it was a soft object, was a dirty insult.

“You said you could find it, and you obviously admitted that Evan is trash. But now what? No evidence?”

“I’m sorry. Our spies have tried, but somehow he took the gladiator seriously…”

“Well, you can do it. Trash who can’t take a woman with him, shouldn’t he have to sell his body to lowly people in order to earn a living?”

“…”

“I’m not curious, I’m not curious. What I’m curious about is what happened to him.”

“Right now, there’s nothing we can do.”

“Why isn’t there? Whether it’s destroying the Colosseum or arresting him, I mean do something. She’s the Crown Princess!”

“You can’t use your power for personal reasons-“

The object that flew this time was the cup Logan was holding. An expensive and precious cup that Iris gave as a gift, enough to fill even the vanity of a man from Selam.

The cup hit Iris’ forehead and fell to pieces when it hit the floor.

“Really, incompetent. I think the men I know would have done just that much if they asked their lover.”

“…This time, there is a man on the other side as well. He might formally exercise his right of defense.”

Even if that wasn’t the case, Iris wouldn’t have threatened the intact Colosseum just by listening to Logan. It’s an act that breaks her faith.

“Okay. Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

Even though Logan was a member of the royal family, he was not of a noble bloodline comparable to that of the imperial family.

It is said that men are weak and precious, so women should yield more and lose.

Iris, a descendant of the stricter imperial family than anyone else, never doubted that.

But when I was forced to do such humiliating and unfair things, I couldn’t help feeling skeptical at times.

Iris, she came out of Logan’s room, holding her bitter heart.
