ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) Lenny turned and looked at the smiling face of the man that had caught both hands.
Lenny frowned.
The reason for this was because of a few things.
Firstly, this guy's face was just out of the nom.
He was a pretty boy through and through.
His blond hair was flawless, his skin was flawless, his smile was flawless, and his smile was almost too bright to be believable.
He was like a lily sitting beautifully in the mud.
He should not be in here. And yet, from his clothes, Lenny could tell that he was a gladiator.
But worse still. This pretty boy had just blocked both attacks in mid-air.
Even if Lenny did not want to pay attention, he had to. The reason for this was that this man was obviously strong.
Both men pulled their fists back.
The man turned to the six men. "How about this, you boys go play somewhere else and I'll handle the Rite of passage with Fresh one. What do you say!?"
He still had his smiling look at them. And even his eyes seemed to be smiling, but even Lenny felt the chill in the smile.
*Cough!*
"If you say so. We will leave it to you then." The men picked up their Loin clothes and left.
Lenny was one to easily read the room.
"Thank you!" he thanked the smiling man, "but I could have handled it myself."
The man giggled a bit, "I could obviously see that! But at least this method allows for no punishment afterwards."
Lenny understood his words. He was right. If Lenny had settled things his own way, the cell would have been decorated an extra colour.
"I have a better idea for a rite of passage! Please come with me."
The man had said it politely, but for some reason, Lenny could tell that it was not a request.
E666 saw that her plan had failed. It made her frown in anger. It was at this point that one of the girls having it with her wanted to propose a kiss. But she would not have it. She was no longer in the mood.
*PUNCH!*
She punched the girl straight in the nose. But that alone was not enough to quench her anger. She ended up adding a few more punches on the girl's face before she stood up, wore her clothes and left.
She looked at Lenny walking away with the smiling man one more time before she left.
The cell Lenny was in, was big enough. It contained half the gladiators in the E class.
The man took Lenny deeper into the cell area. As they moved, Lenny could see more brazen men have at it with each other in different corners.
Some did it willingly. While others were obviously forced.
The strong ate the weak for breakfast. A fact that stood the test of time and place.
"You are knew here, so I don't think you know. Gladiators are usually in groups based off their demon parent likeness."
"I know!" Lenny answered.
The man smiled a bit, "Ah! of course you do. I can tell you learnt a lot from the rat."
Lenny nodded.
"Good! well in that case, let me introduce you to our group." The man stopped at a corner and pointed to the group of men there, "we are rare, and have no similar blood ties, but are held together by our need to survive. We have come to have one another as a family. Since we do not have a family name, we simply refer to ourselves as Nameless."
Lenny raised a brow at this. However, his eyes were on the group of people at this corner.
Some were having fun, and playing games and some were already sleeping. Two people were engaged in intercourse, and two others were having Arm wrestling on the ground.
E701 had told Lenny about a group of people that banded together without having come from the same kind of demon parent.
This was the crew.
Lenny instantly understood.
Lenny was not new to jail or prison. His former life ensured he had a taste now and then. He understood that this was how human beings behaved.
There was always a hierarchy, and groups for individual survival. It was a basic human instinct to socialize as the chances of survival were higher.
One of the men having the arm wrestling suddenly turned and saw the smiling man, "Ah! E7007 You are back. Damn! you actually brought him."
The man stopped what he was doing and came forward. He was not the only one.
Some of them also came to check out Lenny. They went about him, and some even turned him around to look at him.
Lenny only allowed this because he could tell that they did not have negative intentions. it was just a basic 'check the new guy out' routine.
"Yes! I forgot to introduce myself. I'm E7007," the smiling man introduced in a bow.
"E999." Lenny responded.
"Good!" E7007 nodded. "I can tell your kind is also rare. So what about it? Will you join the nameless?"
There it was again. It sounded like a request, but Lenny could tell that it was not.
Also, he could almost feel at this point that saying 'No' was not going to do him any good.
Firstly, this man had not come to recruit him when they entered the cells. But waited for the most opportune time. He acted like a saviour and a mediator, while also taking advantage of the opportunity to show his strength and standing amongst these gladiators.
No doubt about it, he was the head of the Nameless, but Lenny could not help but feel that this man was very much a terrifying person.
Such a mind and foresight to establish good planning was incredible.
Lenny was still new here, and even though he had caused chaos and disturbance since his arrival, he knew that unless he had absolute strength to suppress all these gladiators at a time, he could not be stupid and say 'No' to the request.
Besides, it looked like a welcoming, but Lenny could feel that if E7007's smile were to change, he would be in trouble. These guys were not just surrounding him to check him out...
