I Want To Be a Nobleman

Chapter 23 One wave is not flat, another wave rises again

The gladiator fight was over. Two gladiators died and three were seriously injured. The bald head was not life-threatening, but passed out.

The audience crazily cheered and shouted for Harold and other gladiators, and even the nobles in the VIP seats applauded and praised.

It's amazing, without blood power or magic weapons, just a dozen people defeated the troll!

Is that gladiator with the big sword called Harold? It's amazingly destructive. Kryon shouldn't be able to match him, right?

Haha, it's the right time this time, such a wonderful show makes me a little bit excited! Hey, arrange a gladiatorial fight for me too, I will fight with that Harold!

A group of nobles were amazed at Harold's strength. Kryon had been famous for a long time and was Sarick's right-hand man. They all knew it, but Harold had only been here for less than a month, and it was the first time he showed his face.

Scar on the side gritted his teeth angrily. Not only did he not kill Harold, but he gained honor and praise from the nobility.

The aristocrat's attitude towards this slave was higher than his attitude, which made Scar's heart extremely twisted. He said in a very low voice: You lowly slave! I will definitely kill you!

In addition to the bald head being seriously injured and comatose, this crusade can be said to be perfect, only two people were killed in the battle, and more than 20 high-level gladiators, all elite gladiators, were dispatched to deal with the troll last time.

Not only did more than a dozen people die in battle that time, but the rest were also seriously injured. The main reason why the casualties were so light this time was that Harold and the bald head had exceptional combat prowess and better weapons.

The bald head is really strong. If it wasn't for saving the gladiator, it would be difficult for the troll's attack to hit him completely.

If the bald head is given a magical weapon with flame power, so that he does not have to bear the weight of more than 60 catties of the weapon, and can effectively suppress the regeneration of the troll, then it is not impossible for the bald head to single out the troll.

Harold is inferior to the bald head mainly in terms of skills and experience. Relying on skills such as [Strike] and [Running], his physical attributes are not weaker than the bald head.

Harold stood in front of the bald head's hospital bed and thought blankly. The bald head has always been his master and elder brother, and he has been taken care of by the bald head since he woke up.

The bald head took him to train, taught him swordsmanship, and tried his best to help him gain freedom. He was definitely Harold's biggest benefactor after crossing.

Harold thought of Earl Salik, and felt a little disappointed. The earl hadn't visited him even once after his bald head was injured and he fell into a coma!

He didn't stop the bald head from entering the wrestling fight, and he didn't intervene in the wrestling process.

Harold understands that the earl is just using the bald head as a tool. He is a high-ranking earl, and it is impossible for him to be kind to the bald head. He is just worthless for the bald head.

After the bald head fell into a coma, Scar was responsible for the operation of the arena alone, and the promise that the bald head promised Harold for the last fight was not fulfilled.

Scar sent someone to inform Harold that he would participate in a gladiatorial fight tomorrow to please the noble lord.

Harold could only accept this, his bald head was still awake, he was not qualified to resist the steward of the arena, although the nobles were optimistic about Harold, they were not in a hurry to win over him.

Because he was a slave in the arena, Earl Salik had to make it clear that he didn't want them before he could offer them an olive branch.

Earl Salik felt that it would be better for the bald head to come forward to win Harold back after he woke up, so even if Harold had shown extraordinary value, he could only continue to be a gladiator.

Harold thought for a long time before going to bed at night. Tomorrow's game should be an exhibition game, and the focus was on his future.

After the bald head wakes up, he will definitely introduce himself to Earl Sarick, and Earl Sarick should also be happy to have one more gold medalist.

But Harold himself didn't like it, he didn't want to be Earl Salik's dog!

He wants to stand out, to gain honor, to create his own brilliance! To be Earl Salik's subordinate is really to be a lifetime subordinate!

But he is just a slave, can he refuse the solicitation of Earl Salik, the owner of the arena?

Although he was unwilling to be mediocre, he was terrified when he fought against the monster, and he was only one step away from death. The battle with the troll also made him feel weak and powerless, and he was not very strong!

Harold was a little hesitant, a little tired, and couldn't muster up the courage to refuse the earl's solicitation. Harold didn't understand how he should go in the future.

The dream is very far away, and the truth of realizing the dream is very difficult!

Harold fell into a deep sleep, and he had another dream.

In the dream, he was a captain of the town militia. He took a wife who was not beautiful but very virtuous, and gave birth to two children, a boy and a girl.

There is no passionate battle, no bloody adventure, and the daily work is just to punish some gangsters and clean up some illegal traders.

After work, go to the tavern and have a few drinks with the bald head, and then go home to accompany my wife and children.

After waking up from the dream, Harold noticed the smile on the corner of his mouth. He suddenly realized that it seemed that an ordinary and happy life was not bad.

8 wives, dragon slaying warriors, and territorial titles don't seem to be so attractive anymore.

After Harold woke up, he went to the ward to check on the bald head. He was almost out of the control of the guards now, and these guards knew that Harold would soon be as favored by nobles as the bald head.

The condition of the bald head has improved a lot, and it seems that he is about to wake up. Harold is completely relieved.

Someone told him to go to the entrance of the arena to stand by, and it was his turn to take the stage soon.

Harold took his seat leisurely, wondering who is the opponent?

Random cannon fodder? Probably not, that would be too perfunctory, the aristocrat could not help but fall asleep.

World of Warcraft? No way, I am a talent now, is the arena willing to let him die?

It should be some unlucky official gladiator, I am in a good mood, try to be merciful and spare your life!

Harold thought easily, but unfortunately, reality is often unexpected, and it always drives people to a dead end!

The host's passionate shout resounded through the audience, and he excitedly yelled out today's highlight:

Today, our God of War, Harold, will alone challenge the monster from the wilderness, the ogre!

After listening to the host's words, Harold's mind went blank, and he walked towards the arena in a daze.

An iron door in the distance opened, and a terrifying monster slightly smaller than a troll came out.

Ogre, the overlord of the wilderness, has amazing strength, and the wooden club he swings with all his strength can crush any enemy to pieces!

Harold stood alone in the middle of the arena. He looked up at the sky and then at the roaring ogre. It felt unreal. He wanted to deal with this monster alone? This is not a joke, is it?

In the VIP seats, the nobles were all looking at the arena with great interest, and Scar smiled sinisterly at the side.

Although there are several nobles who have taken a fancy to Harold's strength, after all, Harold is not one of them, so there is no pity.

Earl Salik was a little bit entangled. He already regarded Harold as his own property. If Harold died in battle, it would be his loss. Scar actually arranged this kind of wrestling without authorization. It seems that he must be killed. !

At this moment, the bald head who had just woken up with a bandage rushed into the VIP seat, bent down and knelt down on one leg in front of Earl Sarick, and begged:

My lord, it's too dangerous for Harold to deal with the ogre alone, please stop this match immediately!

Seeing that the bald head was getting in the way, Scar immediately scolded: The wrestling has already started, it's breaking the rules if you want to stop it! So many nobles are watching, do you want to disgrace the wrestling arena?

The bald head didn't retort, but just looked at Earl Salik sincerely. The arena is the earl's final say, as long as the earl is willing, there is no problem in terminating the arena.

Earl Salik hesitated for a moment, and replied: Kryon, you have to trust Harold, he can defeat the ogre!

If you ask me to stop the gladiatorial fight now, people will think that Harold is a coward, a coward who dare not face the ogre. All his glory of defeating monsters and trolls before will be destroyed!

At the same time, this will also damage my reputation. In front of so many civilian audiences and noble guests, I violated the regulations to save people for personal gain. I will not be able to make up for this loss!

Even so, do you still insist on stopping this gladiatorial fight?

The bald man lowered his head after hearing Earl Salik's words, but when he thought that Harold agreed to challenge the troll with him without hesitation, he immediately made up his mind.

The bald head raised his head resolutely, and begged: Master, please, Harold is a person with great potential, and even my brother. It is a pity that he died like this. Please save his life. !

Earl Salik was stunned for a moment. He seemed to clarify his interests just now, but in fact it was a clear rejection. He did not expect that the bald head would continue to pester him against his will.

Originally, he had hesitated whether to stop the wrestling. Harold was so powerful that it would be a pity to die. However, so many nobles were present and wanted to watch this match with great interest, so he couldn't bear to call it a stop.

The bald head came here to plead for mercy, but Earl Salik made up his mind not to stop the gladiatorial fight. It was very simple. If he agreed to the bald head's request, Harold would not be grateful to him afterwards, but to the bald head.

The reason why Earl Salik appreciates civilians like Harold and Baldhead is because they are loyal and cheap enough.

There is no need to reward the land, nor do you need to give fame and fortune. You only need to pull a hand to get their gratitude when the other party is down and down, and you can completely squeeze out their value.

The bald head's request made him lose the opportunity to use Harold for free. If he wants to accept Harold, he probably has to promise a lot of benefits, so there is no need to lose face to save people.

After Earl Salik made a clear calculation, he reprimanded the bald head sharply: Kryon! Don't get your identity wrong. You insisted on going out to fight the troll yourself. I haven't settled with you yet. Now you want to interfere with the operation of the arena?

You just woke up and haven't woken up yet! I don't care about your offense, you'd better go out and wash your face to calm down!

The bald head wanted to say something more, but was pulled up by the single arm and pulled away.

With the strength of a bald head, even if the injury is still not healed, it is not something a one-armed knight with one arm can pull.

It was his own grief and disappointment that pulled the bald head away.

Shouldn't the battle really be stopped? Although the ogre is not as strong as the troll, it cannot be defeated by one person! Is glory more important than life?

Am I wrong? Or... I misread Earl Salik? No, it's impossible. Earl Salik is definitely not an ordinary nobleman. He is kind, wise, and kind!

But, but why didn't he take my suggestion once! Harold is going to die! Why didn't he stop the gladiatorial fight!

The bald head could only stand at the entrance of the arena and watch the fight, and could not give Harold any help.
