Kasel gets back to his room with a lot of thoughts and cogitation. He opens the door quickly without noticing the bird again with various colours of its feathers that was spying them all along.
The bird flew away with soundless flaps, like an owl.
"You didn't say that the battle-axe wielder was Montul, have you talked to him? Tell me about it." Esme asks agressively.
"It's about the letter and..." Kasel suddenly paused as he realizes that he can't trust Loo about the Mark so he carefully changes topic so Loo won't be disappointed. "Talked about getting out here as soon as possible."
"The next fight is ours what should we do now?" Esme asks
"We should participate as for now, and wait for them to take action."
"Who? Kasel, tell me whatever is it you're planning."
Loo obersves Kasel for a while, while having a conversation to Esme, but not just about the topic he changed but also the thought of how to get out of the city, knowing that the city is heavily guarded and the prowess of its hunters.
"We are in the situation where defying their law means aversion of their city." Kasel says seriously. "They talk about escaping but in a way which every men was afraid of." he added.
"Well, if that is the only way, just tell me what I can do." Esme says.
"You do nothing."
"What?"
"Look, worry about yourself and secure your safety. Fight for whatever you are trying to find, dream, bourne, aspiration, whatever, we cannot assure you to win this war against this... stronger city, you should go on your own you just..." Kasel stops and starts to talk about the letter instead to disappoint Esme and for her to stop obsessing over it. "The letter, if you think the other world is real...well, it's not, it is the rumor just for the people to believe it because the life before was more difficult to what we are living right now, so they deluded them selves about their ideal world and spread it like a plague. If that's what you are looking for, then you just lead yourself to a false direction."
Loo's eyebrows expressed unconvinced to Kasel.
"If you don't want me to be part of your team, I... heard enough." Esme bows her head, picked up her bow immediately and scrams to the door.
Kasel did not stop her because he thought of Esme's safety. Then he scratches his head as soon as she closed the door.
She walked to the corridor with Loo on her shoulder and both looked each other and smiles.
"He's bad at lying, He's acting skills also horrible." Esme says and Loo just smiles widely while walking out the corridor to the training yard.
After a few moment a knock of the Kasel's door disturbs him from thinking.
"Your name is Kasel right?, the next battle will be yours please head to the cell." The man behind the door explains.
"Right." He yells as a reply.
--------
Esme wanders around the training yard that was filled with horrifying men from different tribes. She roams around as she was being mistreated and verbally harassed by men around.
"Witwew... You the woman who shoots arrows ahh!?... Very skillfull ehh?" One man says in a loud voice with a gross grin on his funny face while trying to flirt.
"The woman who can fight, marry me. If I become the head hunter of my tribe, you gonna marry me." Another man rebutted with the same disgusting energy.
"Or ... if she loses the next fight, "WE" will be the reward." Another man shouts in a perverted way and everyone loses their mind.
Esme tries to talk to Loo, ignoring how disgusting these men are but when she looked over her shoulder, Loo was nowhere to be found and was gone. Again.
"Wait the next fight?" Esme whispered to herself and rush to the cell to meet Kasel. "I won't let him fight alone."
The announcer began to cheer with the crowd and let the both sides prepare.
In the raiser where the Royal hunters , Lead Commander and the Wealthy man was sitting along with the others.
The people cheers louder more and more.
Esme rushes and arrived in the cell where Kasel was standing before the opening wall.
The other hunters or the next fighters are in their back for preparation.
Also the members of the secret plan are in there prepared for what they will do.
"Whatever happens do not do something more stupid than I would." Kasel seriously says.
"You look so serious. I'm not used to it." Esme replies and stares at him, wondering if what will happen. "Whatever." She whispers again to herself.
Both walls slowly began to open in the Arena.
"Let's begin the Duaaaal... Dulaaa..." The announcer yells as the wall was fully opened.
The crowd cheers more and the sound of jingling coins joined the noise. Karl and Calis merged in the crowd. The Lead commander with the wealthy man along with the Royal hunters in the risers are heated for the match to begin.
Kasel and Esme are in the same place on the other side the battle-axe holder with the masked face and the broadsword wielder both yells in front of the crowds direction.
Karl always glances at the wealthy man for any suspicious movements, while Calis looks around to their peers for eye contact if they ready to whatever happens.
"I'll tell you what, if these people are full of greedy shit like this? Then all shall be damned." Karl says. "Wait it's not Bosmo?" Karl wonders why the broadsword wielder showed up instead of Bosmo as the fight before was draw, they should never change anyone.
Both sides was in a brief caution for an abrupt change of opponents without their knowledge.
While everyone involved in the plan gazes to their fellow peers, one of them quickly checks the area to find Bosmo.
"Calis." Karl says in soberly manner.
Calis stood up without saying anything knowing what to do then goes back stage and searches for Bosmo in dither way.
The broadsword wielder ran towards Kasel and Esme, while Montul stares at Karl for an avid reason leaving him behind.
Then the broadsword wielder jumps and clashes hardly on Kasel but still his mighty sundang along with his strength can block and parry the attack inevitably.
Then the crowd's joviality is at the highest level.
