I Became a Gladiator in the World of Gender Reversal

5 – Visit-5

“Is today the last…”

It was a pity. He was slowly getting used to life in the Colosseum.

The meal was stimulating yet delicious, and the body was so comfortable that it made me feel drowsy.

It was a bit disappointing that she couldn’t see Dana often, but since she left after seeing her sword fight at least once, she was content.

“You must come and see it.”

You don’t know what you’ll be doing in a place called Selam, but nothing is easy in this world. As much as the people here treat men well, that responsibility must be great.

Still, I was able to find more peace of mind than when I first fell into this world.

“Now, it’s time to depart.”

Seeing Daisy kneeling down as deeply as she did when she first met me, I felt sorry for her, wondering if she had to go that far.

“Okay. Let’s go.”

It was embarrassing to throw her words at someone who could be considered my life saver #2, but I had no choice but to let go of her words because she kept telling me.

Did you say that it could be used as unfavorable evidence or grounds for deducting points later? I couldn’t understand it, but since I was the first person to come to this world, I had no choice but to accept it.

On the way out, I ran into Dana. She looked at me nervously, and tried to bow her head on her knees, as Daisy had done.

“Oh, hello… How are you?”

“No need to overdo it. See you later. The gladiator fight was really cool.”

I looked at her Dana’s face as I knelt on one side of her, lowered her face lower than her.

As expected, the front of her head was more beautiful than the back of her head. Seeing her face from a distance that was less than a hand’s span away, I felt like I would fall in love again.

“…Yes!”

Dana smiled brightly and nodded her head. I, too, looked at her and smiled brightly.

Coming out of the Colosseum, a splendid carriage was prepared.

Inside and outside, there were hanging jewels, and the guards greeted me in neat yet antique ceremonial clothes.

The woman in front of her bowed her head cautiously on her knees as Daisy had.

“Welcome, Evan. We are the people sent from Selam to serve Evan.”

There was a strange tension in his voice. Daisy and the other gladiators also seemed to have a hard time facing me, but not as much as the woman in front of me.

From noble mtl dot com

“Can we ride Evan in a carriage to take him to Selam?”

Although the faces looked somewhat alike, each one was beautiful without exception. Especially the woman kneeling in front of me.

However, it wasn’t their faces that caught my attention.

“Wait, what is this? Is it a red carpet? Have you prepared this?”

A soft-looking carpet was spread between the carriage and the Colosseum.

I didn’t remember when I came here, but no matter how I thought about it, it wasn’t a red carpet suitable for a Colosseum.

“Oops, sorry!”

The woman in front of me bowed her head deeper.

“Of course, it is appropriate to serve Evan with the finest Albase carpet, but the carpet has recently been damaged and is being repaired…”

“Yes?”

“When I was looking for a carpet that could wash the floor even if it was laid on a dirt floor like this, I inevitably used a Varnasan carpet.”

Actually, maybe the translation magic that was on me wasn’t working properly.

I can definitely hear the words, but I couldn’t understand.

“It’s not an act of insulting or ignoring Evan, it’s just that we did our best to serve him wholeheartedly. So please… If you hold me accountable for wrongly serving Evan, …”

“No, what does that sound like… It could be.”

So, it seemed like he thought I was giving him a pick. Her ears, when I said, ‘Did you prepare this?’ Did you hear the same feeling?

It was absurd, but the more I mixed my words, the more I lost. Well, it might be paranoia, and the country you see for the first time might be wary of its existence.

Or maybe it was all prepared to make fun of me. Whatever it was, there was nothing good about lengthening the words.

However, she kept scratching my insides without raising her head.

“Sir, excuse me, Evan. Did the gladiators force Evan to show respect?”

“What is that again?”

“Me, me too… Didn’t those vulgar and informal guys force Evan-sama to be respectful?”

“No.”

“Isn’t it to threaten Evan by forcing a female-dominant and violent hierarchy, and to deceive Evan as if it were natural to say such a thing?”

Words didn’t come out of my mouth because it was absurd.

“It’s safe here. No matter what threats the gladiators gave to the Evans, Selam’s army is stronger. So, please take it easy and confide slowly.”

“No, what the hell?”

Like ice that fell in the desert, my reason was rapidly melting.

“You said that you suffered rape threats. At the time of the incident, did the gladiator insult Evan or send a sinister look through his gaze or words and actions?”

Crazy. Everyone here is insane.

“After that, during the escort process, was there any unsavory contact? Or, under the pretext of treatment, did the doctor or related person touch Evan’s body or give a coercive order for nefarious purposes?”

Daisy’s behavior began to make sense. At first, I wanted to get away from some kind of misfortune, but I was like a living bomb.

“When you moved from the discovery location to the Colosseum, did Evan have your own permission? Did you acquire freedom such as menstrual activities, freedom of movement, leisure and happiness inside the Colosseum?”

“If I told you there was one of them, what would happen?”

“The Colosseum will be audited, and those involved will be severely punished. There is no tolerance for crimes against men.”

I will turn around. Daisy is actually not a saint of another world.

Dana didn’t seem to know what it was, but Daisy seemed to have foreseen this four month’s coming. Even so, he did not abandon me.

If I had been Daisy, wouldn’t she have kicked Dana out for picking up the ‘man’? Wouldn’t it have been much easier to leave her somewhere while she was unconscious?

She is touched by her humanity, and I felt the need to quickly end this conversation.

“No. It’s most inconvenient to stand like this and talk like you’re being interrogated. Let’s go quickly.”

I lowered her head, turned her around slightly, and went into her wagon.

Inside was spacious. If you fit in well, maybe ten people can ride.

She came inside her with her, tied her hands to the handle on top of her.

She was the one I swore I wouldn’t say a word to her until she got into Selam, but when I saw her tying her hands herself, she couldn’t keep her mouth shut.

“That, why are you tying it up…?”

“If you’re a passenger, it’s a natural thing to do. In order to give trust and safety to Evan, the escort, I have to prove that I can’t do anything.”

“No, escort? Isn’t it that you can’t do anything when something happens?”

“At that time, Evan just needs to press the switch over there. Then the handcuffs here will be released, and I can help Evan.”

Looking to the side, there was something like a strange mechanical device. When I put my weight in and pressed it down, I heard the sound of the wooden mechanism and the chain moving. Soon, her bound hands were untied.

“…Isn’t it frustrating?”

“In order to prove that I am harmless, it is a matter of course.”

At this point, it’s a bit scary to think you’re crazy. It seemed that it would not be so frightening to see an orc or a wolf the size of a man. At least, because it seemed that a being outside of my common sense would do something within my common sense, even if it was a monster.

Common sense doesn’t work. He brings out nonsensical words as if they were natural.

“So you can be an escort?”

“I’ll leave that task to the escort who will be outside for a while. Now that I’m here, my job is to immediately resolve Evan’s request.”

Rather than a personal escort, I wonder if it feels like a kind of secretary. Even so, it was difficult to understand that one arm had to be tied up the entire time the carriage was moving.

‘Wait…’

When I thought about where I was going, my anxiety increased.

Until now, all the people I have met in this world have been women. A woman who is too weak for men.

And Selam is said to be a place for men, so now I have to meet a man.

A man who takes the thoughts of such people for granted.

I felt like jumping off the wagon right now. I couldn’t even imagine what would happen in the future.

‘Please, don’t worry…’

The carriage moved slowly and gracefully. Waiting without a word was boring.

However, I had no intention of talking to the woman in front of me. It wasn’t that she didn’t like or loathe her, it was because the more she mixed her words with me, the more uncomfortable she and I were.

I tried to ask if I could go a little faster, but I quickly shut up.

The escorts following this wagon were walking, and it seemed that if I opened my mouth, the wagon would gallop regardless of their stamina.

This world, in a different sense, was blocking my mouth.
