Chapter 24: The Strongest Gladiator
Me, Nanami, and Farma were staying at a top-quality hotel, which was a reward for having made a lot of money from the fight againstHaranishi and his team, which was more than enough for us.
Come on, Farma. It's soft.
Nanami, let's see who can jump higher.
Yeah, I'm in.
Nanami and Farma are happily jumping in the bedbut Jean and I were having a serious talk.
It's about time.You won't be making any more money as a gladiator.
Oh, really?
You're too strong. No one's going to fight with you.
WellI knew I overdid it
But you've already made over 200 million, so let's use that to buy a Magicraft.
"I'd like to buy two Magicrafts and a ride carrier if possible.Can I buy them?
I wanted to get a Magicraft for Farma, and I still wanted to buy a ride carrier for transportation
One is for the Highlander, right? What kind of performance do you want from the other one?
I want a Magicraft that can match 7800 Ludia value.
Half-radar.That's going to be a pretty expensive purchase, tooHalf-radar Magicrafts are in high demand, so theyre very expensive.
I see.I was thinking that it would be half the price for a Highlander Magicraft.
That's going to take more than about 200 million.
Can't I just have one more match?
When I said that, Jean named one person who might be willing to accept my challenge
"There is one guy, though, who might be willing to accept a match with you right now.But I wouldn't recommend fighting that person.
Why?
"He's the King of the Gladiatorscalled the strongest gladiatorundefeated in 120 battlesabsolute champion of the Double Highlanders.
"Double Highlander?
"It's a monster with a Ludia value of 23,000. No matter how strong Yuta is, he's a difficult opponent.
23,000 would be better than 32,000 Nanami.I think I can handle him
"I will fight that championand it will be my last match as a gladiator.
You can't be serious! You're facing a double Highlander!
I don't care, I'm going to win!
I won't stop you if you do, but how much do you want to bet?
I'm thinking 200 million.
You're such an idiot.
Thus, I had to negotiate a match with the strongest gladiator
That day, Nanami, Farma and I slept side by side.In a large room with several beds, we lay close together in one bed.
"After we avenge Farma's father, let's buy a house somewhere and live together.
Nanami began to talk about the future.
Yeah, I want the three of us to live together too
Farma agreed with that
Yeahthat would be good.
I was really hoping we would.
"Yuta, you're going to have another match, aren't you?
Nanami said with a bit of sadness in her voice.
Ah, my last match as a gladiator.
Take it easy.
I've never taken it easy.
If Yuta gets hurt there's no point.
Farma says so too.I wonder if they both have some kind of ominous premonition.Maybe they have a sense that my next opponent will be a very strong
The next daywe went to ask the gladiator king for a match..The opponent for my last match was in the VIP room of the coliseum
"Oh, I thought you were some reckless old man who wanted to challenge me to a match, but you're a pretty boy.
The king of gladiators, I imagined a stern uncle, butthere was a beautiful woman with short red hair
So what are the terms of the match?
"How about 200 million? Jean offers.
"Two hundred millionI'm not interested in money.Well, how about two hundred million plus, the loser of the match becomes the property of the winner? Hey you, you're cute and I want you as a pet.
"Don't be silly, I can't accept such terms. Jean immediately refused.
Oh, well, then I'm not going to take this fight.
When she said that, I didn't hesitate to speak up.
"I'll accept your terms. Let's have a match.
Oh, you're cute and you've got guts. I seriously like you.
"Hey, if you lose, you'll be her property, don't do it, the conditions are too bad.
"Don't worry..I'll win.
Where's your confidence coming from?
Boy, I'm Alana. It's nice to meet you.
"I'm not a boy, I'm Yuta!
HmmmsoYutaI can't wait to make you mine.
I got chills down my back.What will she do to me if I lose?This was the first time I felt fear.
