Evander

I sense the emotions of my battle-brothers through our bond.

Augustus is still filled with rage, but he’s reined in his fury; discipline tempering the steel of his will.

Conan has a thin thread of fear running through him – although far less than the constant terror that he’d been radiating through the Bond ever since the horrors of the Scorp cave.

Ashley has given them both strength and purpose.

Me, too. I feel certainty.

I’m calm, sure, and ready. My mind is sharp. Either I’ll beat the Bullfrogs in their tournament, or I’ll calmly excuse myself and step outside, to our ship. There, I’ll gather our weapons, and return to coldly cut down anyone who stands in my way.

We will leave here with the prize we came here for – one way or another.

But I’d prefer the first way.

The problem with the second strategy – bloodshed – is that it will leave Ashley with the Bullfrogs for at least ten minutes while I plan my attack. I know it’s not long enough for them to do anything to her, but I hate the idea of another man being alone with her; even for mere minutes.

The casino host leads our two groups to the end of the casino. There’s a small sign there, which reads: High Level Betting.

A beautiful blonde woman standing enticingly in front of the doors, an alluring smile on her face. She’s a good actress – so good, in fact, that she barely shows a hint of disgust at the four Bullfrogs that waddle past her. I size up my enemies as they pass – and I make sure to let them waddle in front of me. Even in the supposed civility of this casino, I don’t want to turn my back on any of the slimy bastards.

Bullfrogs are big – at least a foot taller than me, and much heavier. They might be fat, but they also have huge muscles beneath the bulk of their lardy bodies. Without Orb-Weapons, I’ll admit that I’m not completely confident how a fight against the four of them would turn out. That’s why winning Danielle through strategy, rather than battle, is the smarter choice.

If it comes down to it, though, we might have to face these slimy bastards. In that case, the smartest plan will be to get to our ship and secure our Orb-Blades for the fight. We’ll be branded as murderers on this planet – but that matters little.

Firstly – if I can shoulder the dishonor of fleeing that Scorp nest, then the opinion of the slave-traders and crime lords of Reena means nothing to me.

And secondly – and more importantly – I plan on taking down the rulers of this city anyway, and making it my own. If we do that, their opinions will mean even less.

I breath in, and feel my chest swell. It was Ashley was gave me the confidence that I needed – the unshakeable belief that my triad and I can achieve anything. We will conquer this world, and then there’ll be no more slave auctions.
