Chapter Four : Competition

Everyone is excited because today is the day the king held a competition in any gender. I am so excited because I want to show my capabilities. All my life I was treated like a trash. I want to stand on my own and make a comeback. The winner of this competition will get a 20,000 gold coins. This competition will be held in the royal arena. It was said that the final remaining contestants will fight the final boss. No one know what kind of person will be faced to the final battle. I am going to register my name now. Little white I will be joining this competition I said to him. He is wearing a disguise we color his hair with black, and he is wearing eyeglasses and wear a black hood.
Are you sure Xia you would join this competition? Yes I am very sure. As I am registering my name. Someone is laughing and mocked at me. Well what we have here the trash of the Wei Family. Are you out of your mind that you are going to participate this prestigious competition? You will not last hahaha. She is the fiancé of my ex-fiance George Leaf. George Leaf is my childhood friend that betrayed me in the past. Oh, well I don't care Minerva you should just take care of your own fiancé. As you know he is a womanizer. Maybe he is now sleeping with other girls now. She looks furious and was just want to slap me, but I held her hand strongly. You want to slap for stating a fact shame on you girl. I am so happy that you took him from me. Maybe a trash is destined for a trash like former friend Minerva? She looked furious, but she held herself not to show her trash behavior. She walks past to me and headed to that fiancé of hers.


Xia who is George your? Little white asked. George is my childhood friend and at the same time fiancé. When my mother is still alive our family arrange our marriage when I was only ten. I like him since he is kind to me, but it turns out that he is having a relationship to my friend Minerva. I trust them because they are my friends, but I caught them promising each other that George will break off the engagement and will marry Minerva. I was naive and childish that time. I no longer hold grudges to them now I just hope they don't pester my life.

All the contestants line up I can see all of them have a strong physical appearance. The man at the front is a bulky man. Some of them are holding there scary weapon like ax and big swords. I think I am the only girl at this arena. I saw Little white in the crowd and I wave at him. Furthermore, I am the last in the line-up, so I just watch them starting to fight. The first match is a bulk man and a skinny man. The bulky man is first to strike his big fist to the tiny man. Everyone is shouting beat that tiny man. The bulky man is mocking the other party being a shorty and a fool. The bulky man name Kardo make the first move to hit the small man with his left big fist. Everyone is cheering him. The tiny man avoid his fist attentively. Kardo got angry why he can't punch the tiny fool. Kardo throw again his big fist to the tiny man. The tiny man play defense to his attack. Kardo the big man kick the man on his leg. Everyone is excited to know who will win. He keeps attacking the small man name George. What an easy play to start with said the man wearing green shirt in the crowd. Kardo throw some punches to the small man. He keeps attacking him in his chest. Georgy started coughing blood. Kardo stop his attack and mock Georgy for being weak. What a weak and tiny man you are he said. Soon enough the crowd shouting the big man's name. This is hopeless how Georgy can do his attack to Kardo if he's only playing defense. Georgy suddenly kneel and held his mouth. When he's starting to laugh everyone are quiet. What are you laughing at tiny man? Kardo said to him. Georgy suddenly attack him and do an uppercut. It was a sudden move that Kardo feel defenseless. Kardo was taken a back because of the attack. Xia look Little White but he is not around. Where is he heading? Georgy keeps attacking Kardo until he is not moving and is unconscious. The winner of the battle is Georgy what an unexpected result. I saw a man in the alley he looked suspect. I followed him as he took leave in the dark street. He is wearing a black cloak with long black hair. He opens a secret door. The door is left half open and I can see little inside. The man wearing a cloak is forcing a man to drink a green liquid. His hands have handcuffs and held him in the chair tight. His eyes start to be red, and his face has green veins. He keeps struggling in the chair. I step backward and I step on a dry leaf. Who is that? The man inside feels that someone is watching. Oh my gosh! Where would I hide? I ask myself. My heart keeps beating fast as the man starts to walk closer to the door. Suddenly there is a hand covering my mouth and pulling me to him while hiding in the big box of plywood.













The man inside suddenly pulls out the wooden door. Who are you? He said. I will kill you if I see you again. Meow! Thank God a black cat is playing with the leaves. What if it is just a cat?! What a shame I thought I would kill a person by now said the man in the black cloak.













Little White whispers to my ears. What are you doing here Xia? You know it is a difficult situation if that person catches you? I am so worried that you are not in the arena. I thought someone happened to you already. Don't worry Little white I can save myself if he will initiate an attack on me. Let's go to the arena there are only two remaining contestants fighting now before you. We carefully go back to the arena. Little white is right there are two only remaining contestants fighting at the center. The first man has long hair and a long sword in both of his hands. They were fighting fiercely in a close battle. The second man has a big blue sword in his right hand. Everyone is excited about who will be the winner and win the 20,000 gold coins that will be rewarded by the king of this country. The first man does a high jump and swings his sword towards his opponent. It causes an impact as the ground shakes a bit. People keep cheering for the two contestants. They are sweating a lot. As I watch there fighting fight, and there are none of them give up. Georgy the little man gives all his might as he swings his sword and loses his balance. Kardo automatically swung his big sword as he saw Georgy lose his balance. Georgy struggles to get up as his foot is swollen. Kardo grabs that opportunity to defeat his opponent. Georgy takes all his might to not give up on this competition. Kardo started laughing as he saw Georgy struggle to get up. Georgy suddenly collapses. Kardo still laughing goes near to Georgy who just collapsed. You should just give up and not enter in any competition anymore you just a piece of crap. Kardo gives all his might as he swings his sword towards Georgy. Suddenly Georgy gets his sword and points to Kardos's neck. You keep mocking me for being small and not physically fit. But you are wrong about being just big and having to have a brain to make your tactics. You keep blubbering some useless words. Give up and I will spare your life. Kardo wanted to struggle more and did not want to submit to defeat can not do anymore. At last, Kardo accepted his defeat and put down his sword. The announcer announces Georgy as the winner. Georgy suddenly collapsed as the announcer just wanted to hold his right hand. He will be replaced by the evil mercenary who just got late in signing his name. We have another contestant Jake the mercenary. His opponent is a girl named Xia Lee Wei. Booh! Everyone is mocking me for being an ignorant girl. You piece of trash of the family of the Duke. You keep on showing your ugly scarred face. You should just always hide in your room. There is no place for a little young girl here. This is not a playground said one of the citizens of the kingdom.
