Chapter 224: Stubborn
Lana was allowed to pick the fighters for the next match, and just like Keira, she chose two fighters whose eyes reflected their thirst for blood and their desire to kill.
And true enough, the fight was savage. She had to control herself not to vomit on the spot. The fight had finished and ended in an extremely violent way that the face of the fighter who had lost was no longer recognizable.
Keira was also horrified at the sight before her. She could not understand how the crowds could enjoy watching a spectacle as violent as this and call it entertainment. She had been sheltered her whole life, and even after having reported news from some dangerous areas, she still couldn’t grasp the extent of the world’s cruelty.
She was disgusted. She must let those ruthless fighters fight and kill each other.
She made another request but panicked when Leon turned her offer down, saying he would give the other guests a chance to pick some fighters as well. To her horror, the next requested fighters were Zach and a man called Cobra.
"That man seemed to be close with Zach," Keira murmured. Jeru noticed it too. Zach indeed seemed to be close with the fighters whose alias are ’Cobra’ and ’Pretty Boy’.
Keira was still trying to stop the match by offering a higher bid so her wish would be accommodated first, but Leon merely apologized and said, "Madam, I’m also anticipating this fight, so let me grant you your request after this match."
Leon had indeed been anticipating for Zach to be picked by a guest for another round inside the ring. He wanted to see Thea get nervous so she would beg him for Zach’s life.
Jeru held Keira’s arm, signaling her to let it go because if she didn’t, it would only make Leon suspicious and it might compromise their position. Keira was left with no choice but to accept.
