I Became a Gladiator in the World of Gender Reversal - I Became a Gladiator in the World of Gender Reversal chapter 54

54 – Criminal-11

“Ha…”

My body is shaking. The fatigue that seeped into every corner of her skin was overpowering the pain that leaked out of the blood that was seeping out.

It wasn’t just me. Jerry, who was next to me, was already using his power beyond his limits.

However, it wasn’t just the two of us struggling.

The charter was stalemate.

Not all the bullies ran away with just a few words from me. However, it was not that there were no people who ran away or lost their will to fight.

Since the overwhelming superiority in numbers was reduced, even those who tried to attack in the future could not move easily.

There was a gap in numbers, but at least me and Jerry were back to back.

Failed to escape, but was able to continue the fight.

Me and Jerry’s bodies were tired, but their minds were still intact.

Because I was fighting to keep her from her, her from me.

As long as it doesn’t collapse. She accepts her attacks from behind me.

I had no experience fighting together, but I did have experience fighting each other.

I was able to judge that if it was an attack of this level, I could block or avoid it, and if it was that level of a human, I could press it with force.

“Where!”

Jerry’s sword cut down one of the bullies who was aiming at me.

Also, I was clearly aware of its limitations. When a bully with a lot of muscles came out, I suppressed it with force, and Jerry subdued the bully I hadn’t been able to find with a wide field of view.

Like that, time dragged on.

“Damn it, die! Die!”

The boss, who had been beaten by me several times, was screaming and glaring at me as if to kill me.

Once in the leg and once in the face allowed to be attacked. The nose was already crushed, but it didn’t look ridiculous because of those intense eyes.

“Because of you, if it weren’t for you…”

“Maybe.”

If you were in Selam, caught a decently nice and wealthy-looking woman and lived with her for the rest of your life.

If you lived a life that is referred to as the ‘ordinary man’s life’ in this world, you might not have had to fight with them.

Unless it was the first battle, the second battle would not have happened.

If you rode on a wagon whose interior and exterior were completely controlled and escorted by numerous soldiers, such a bully wouldn’t have dared to attack.

But that’s all.

No matter how valuable a man is, they were impatient enough to see it and openly rush at it.

Even though the guards slaughtered them once, they are the ones who planned to kidnap me again.

“So, did I do something wrong?”

Rather, if the three bullies I saw for the first time made up their minds and tried to seduce me, they might have followed me.

Until then, I didn’t know what kind of value a male being had in this world.

However, it was she who gave up on it. Instead of using the imbalance of information, she was the one who tried to suppress me by force.

Even now, it is the same.

“Who wants to lock me up…”

I knew that my actions outside of Selam could affect others.

If it wasn’t for the kind consideration of the other gladiators half mixed with dark hearts, it wouldn’t be strange even if they were getting all sorts of swearing by now.

So, I was able to move on with a smile despite their sly gazes and their seemingly kind kindness.

But this isn’t it.

I cannot live locked up in Selam for fear that they will harm me, for fear that I will cause them discomfort.

Having made up my mind, I swung my sword again. However, she couldn’t bear to accept my sword.

“Keugh!”

“Huh?”

Strange. She is the one who was the captain of the bullies left behind in her own way. There was no way she would break down so easily.

At the last moment, that woman was looking beyond me, not me.

“You win, Evan!”

It wasn’t until after hearing Jerry’s clear voice that I knew she had lost her gaze.

“You’ve become stronger.”

A familiar voice rang in my ears. When I first met her, I had no idea how much this voice meant.

Dana is approaching. With the sword drawn, with a very leisurely movement.

Right now there was an enemy in front of me, but I couldn’t help but keep my eyes on her sword.

It wasn’t that it was really fast enough to be invisible to the naked eye, or that it didn’t show fancy skills at first glance.

However, the sword was always where it was supposed to be. So lightly and effortlessly, she slashed the enemy right in front of her eyes.

It was a calm movement that could not be explained except by the word master.

I didn’t know when I first saw it. It was just that she took it for granted that people would fall pik pik pik pik when she swung the sword.

However, now I am not an outsider who does not know anything. Although he was still clumsy, he was a professional gladiator who had to treat swordsmanship and fighting with sincerity.

Now it is visible. How overwhelming she is, how efficient her sword is.

It doesn’t seem to use that much power, but its swordsmanship is perfect.

Perhaps, it’s not that his strength is weak, it’s just that he didn’t waste his strength against an enemy of that level.

“Help! Don’t let even one of them live!”

The belatedly arrived guards and gladiators rushed at it, but the proper battle ended in Dana’s hands.

All that was left was to chase the fleeing guys and protect us who were injured. In an instant, the fight was over.

When she turned her head slightly, Jerry was looking at Dana with the same eyes as mine.

Me and Jerry met eyes and let out a faint laugh together.

Now, it’s safe.

“Please proceed with the case with assault on this person. There is no need to escalate the matter, but please punish those involved.”

Three people were lying side by side in the Colosseum hospital room.

If it was Evan, it wouldn’t have been strange if he was admitted to a better hospital. However, the Colosseum’s healers were also experts when it came to sword surgery.

Coincidentally, he was also a member of the Colosseum, and other hospitals that men could use required enormous treatment costs.

Jerry was lying with him, watching him talking to the guards.

“However, no matter how you think about it, this is a premeditated assault on a man. Survivors are saying so…”

“Please.”

“…I understand.”

The guards have left. Jerry couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked him a question.

“Why did you say that?”

“Well, it’s not a lie. This person hasn’t even come to his senses yet.”

The woman the gang assaulted to get him in was still lying on her bed, moaning.

“If I testify that I was attacked, there will be a fact-finding investigation, right? There is a risk that you will get hurt… And a useless victim may come out.”

Jerry reluctantly nodded. The fact that the slums were overturned once after the previous raid was a fact known to most people living here.

“Thank you.”

She could not yet brazenly raise her face in front of him. In fact, her place, which suits her, may not be her hospital room, but her lockup.

“Well, because something like this can happen.”

Jerry looked at his relaxed smile, savoring it.

An ordinary gladiator. She is a normal life that is natural for her and cannot be envied by anyone.

However, he had to give up a lot to win that status with the body of a man.

From noble mtl dot com

Not only the comfortable daily life in Selam, but also going through the risk of being attacked while only going to the armor store once.

He hasn’t changed, but Jerry’s gaze at him has changed.

“Ha…”

The jealousy I felt toward him disappeared like snow melting.

“And… I almost forgot this. This was what I was out for from the start.”

“Huh?”

Evan pulled out a sword wrapped in cloth.

It wasn’t a sword made by a renowned master, but it was a sword selected from among the swords made by an ordinary gladiator.

“This is…Why?”

Evan chuckled and tossed the sword back to her bed where she was lying.

“It’s a gift. Your sword seems too old.”

Jerry couldn’t stop being agitated.

Is this also an ordinary consideration for him?

There were several reasons why I couldn’t buy a new sword. It was the sword she used when she first became a gladiator, so she was attached to it, and she had to sell her feet to find a sword of a similar level with the money she had.

Right now, I didn’t even feel the need for a new sword.

But his heart was felt. Jerry carefully unwrapped the cloth and looked at the sword he had gifted her to her.

“Wow…”

A woman who received a sword as a gift from a man.

I’ve heard rumors that when some famous knights saved a man’s life, the woman gave them a sword as a way of praising his honor and courage.

But she never thought in her life that she would get it.

“Huh…”

“Why… Why?”

Little tears flowed from her eyes.

Nothing changes. She will continue to be an ordinary gladiator, and this sword will not dramatically increase her skills.

She may be able to win over Evan with a few more fights, but that’s it.

But at this moment, this sword made her special.

Even Jerry, an ordinary gladiator.

“Thank you…”

“It wasn’t that expensive, but that’s… I’m glad. It’s a good thing, right?”

Evan looked at him. Evan tried to laugh, but the emotion she felt was too great for her little laugh to shake off.

Jerry, who was lying on the hospital bed, smiled more special than anyone else in the world.

A smile special enough to make a man, Evan happy.
