Chapter 23 - Axena and Lixinni survives

Axena hinted at Lixinni and they both looked in the direction of the masked men who never flinch nor say a word since the start of the festival. It was at this moment that they realized that the men weren't chained like the others and that the weapons in their hands were of good quality.

"It seems we would be fighting them," Axena said and shook her head. "If we would, I don't think we have a chance. It is a ten against two."

"We won't be fighting them," Lixinni replied and looked back into the ring as the preparation of another match was happening. The workers of the ring were clearing out the dead bodies and picking up body parts that were loitering the ring and at the same time were covering the spilt blood with sand.

"You talked as though you were in the fixing," Axena returned.
