00:05Hold the line!
00:07Charge!
00:24Charge!
00:26For you!
00:56My lady Cassandra, there's a body.
01:13Octavia, the news from the Senate, the Consul has gone missing.
01:20Many believe he is already died.
01:23Impossible!
01:24He is the greatest general of Rome.
01:27I can't believe it.
01:31Gods of Olympias, we offer all for you to watch over the Consular.
01:35Please bring him safely to Rome.
01:39Warriors of Rome, follow me!
01:45Long live the Rome!
01:47Long live the Rome!
01:49Marcus, what happens on you?
01:51Were you actually a soldier of in that Roman legion?
01:53My lady Octavia, I don't know.
01:55My head is throbbing.
01:56I lose some memory.
01:58Octavia, when we found Marcus, his memory was gone.
02:02He hasn't fully healed.
02:03Whether he was a soldier or a common man, don't bother him.
02:14Marcus, you haven't fully recovered.
02:17Just do some simple work today.
02:19Yes, my lady Cassandra.
02:28How dare you, a despicable creature.
02:34Set your eyes on the two young ladies.
02:36You better stay where you are.
02:37Know your place, fool.
02:39Watch yourself.
02:40Eyes down.
02:50Hey, punk.
02:51What's that look?
02:52Come on.
02:54Give him a weapon.
03:00Pick it up.
03:01Fight me.
03:04Galen once fought a black bear.
03:07Marcus is doomed.
03:19I promise Lady Cassandra, I won't fight.
03:23Can't even lift an axe.
03:25What a good-for-nothing.
03:27Why does Lady Cassandra even care about trash like him?
03:30Marcus, if you can't even lift an axe, drop your foolish dreams.
03:37Or else...
03:42This will be your fate!
03:47Galen, why aren't you off to train?
03:52Important guests arrive tomorrow, and you may be called to fight a match.
03:57As you command.
04:02Cassandra and I are staying here tonight.
04:05Please prepare hot water, and bring it to the resting room.
04:10Yes, Lady Octavia.
04:14Boy, you better behave yourselves.
04:16Let's go!
04:20Marcus!
04:21Hurry up with the hot water!
04:23Huh?
04:25All right.
04:29Huh?
04:42Uh...
04:44Uh...
04:48Uh...
04:49Uh...
04:50Huh?
04:52Uh...
04:53Uh...
05:06I'm not fully recovered yet.
05:08I need to take this guy down quickly.
05:52I need to take this guy down quickly.
06:12I need to take this guy down quickly.
06:25Who am I exactly?
06:27Why do I have so many strange memories?
06:32What's going on, Marcus?
06:34Why was it so noisy here just now?
06:36The bear escaped from its cage just now.
06:38I taught it a lesson.
06:40Hear that?
06:41He said he taught the bear a lesson?
06:42This bear is even bigger than the one Lord Galen fought.
06:44There's no way Marcus could beat it.
06:46Marcus, is your way of Vec being Iphter insulted to destroy the arena's things?
06:50If so, I'll report this to Lady Octavia and have you thrown out.
06:54What?
06:55You actually want to fight me?
06:56Then come on!
06:58He actually lifted!
07:00What's happening here?
07:01Why is it so messy?
07:03Galen, are you bullying Marcus?
07:04No, Octavia.
07:05Marcus is just venting because he thinks he's useless.
07:08That's not it.
07:09I just...
07:09Galen, you are not allowed to bully Marcus.
07:11He's still injured.
07:12Marcus, hurry up and get the hot water.
07:13Stop fooling around.
07:14Yes, my lady.
07:48Octavia, where have you been again?
07:57You, Marcus!
07:58Why didn't you knock?
08:01Huh?
08:02Lady Octavia never told me I had to knock before entering.
08:05How dare you keep staring?
08:07I'm sorry, my lady.
08:08I didn't mean to.
08:09You rogue.
08:10Go stand guard outside.
08:12Don't let anyone come near tonight.
08:13Yes, my lady.
08:23Cassandra, what's wrong with your face?
08:25Nothing.
08:26Just...
08:27The water is too hot.
08:30Fine.
08:31Have you seen Marcus?
08:32He's so strong.
08:59Dimitri, the Gladiator Arena is magnificent.
09:02I like it very much.
09:03As for the Cassandra sisters, I wish to get to know them better.
09:07Young Master Corvus.
09:09After tonight, this arena will be yours and those two as well.
09:13Good.
09:14Go now and make it happen.
09:32Barker, take your men to the animal cages on the east side.
09:35Break the cage doors while the beasts are asleep.
09:37I'll lead my people to Seet Fara to the main building.
09:41Understood.
09:43It's just a fallen family.
09:46Held up by only a few women.
09:47Young Master Corvy is far too cautious.
09:50A couple of guys could easily handle this.
09:52They've given me a sign.
09:53I will not die today.
09:55What business is that?
09:56Care to tell me?
09:57Who are you?
09:58Where are the others?
10:00Show yourselves.
10:05Prisoners have no right to ask questions.
10:08Just you alone?
10:09How dare you be so arrogant?
10:11Dammit!
10:12Kill him!
10:25Keep it down.
10:26Don't let him make a sound.
10:28We've got bigger fish to fry.
10:29Don't worry, boss.
10:30We're pros at this.
10:34Why just stand there?
10:36Too scared to run?
10:43Looking for me?
11:19Who the hell are you?
11:22Whoever you are, move together and take him down.
11:39This man must die.
11:50Did it hit him?
11:53This.
11:54This is impossible.
11:56This person's skills seem to be those of the missing.
11:59The Consul.
12:04Now.
12:05Care to tell me what you're really planning?
12:09Stay back!
12:11Take one more step forward.
12:15And I'll set everything ablaze.
12:18The entire arena will burn to the ground.
12:23Oil jars.
12:25You dare set fire to this place.
12:28This goes against Roman's law.
12:32Law.
12:33Roman's law won't mean much soon.
12:36The Julius family is just another pawn to be sacrificed.
12:41Hold him off.
12:42I'll go get backup.
12:44Boss?
12:45What am I supposed to do alone?
12:47This guy is absolutely terrifying.
12:49Our plan is doomed to fail.
12:51Now we have to rely on Baka's side to destroy the Julius arena.
12:57Stay back!
12:58Don't take another step!
13:04Well.
13:05Why?
13:26I don't thinkقت рег spits.
13:30I'm very hard.
13:34Open the gate! Let me in!
13:41What happened? Where are your men?
13:44I ran into one of the Julius Gladiators. He's absolutely terrifying.
13:48Just one man? Are you a fool?
13:51Don't ruin young Master Corve's plan. His moves are far from ordinary.
13:56He's just like one of the former consuls. That's impossible.
14:07Oh. What plan are you all hatching? I'd love to hear it.
14:15Dammit! You dare block the gate all alone?
14:17Who do you think you are? You can try.
14:20All of you, charge! Kill this arrogant fool!
14:42Damn it, Dimitri. What kind of monster have we provoked?
14:46Now there's only one way left.
15:06These beasts are Lady Cassandra's prized property. I can't use a blade.
15:33You dare block the gate.
15:46What? I can't believe it.
15:53Hurry. While he's busy with the beasts, we got this at once.
16:09Young Master Chorus, we failed.
16:15Failed? What happened to the rest of you?
16:19All of our men were taken down by a single gladiator.
16:25Just set fire and break the beast cages.
16:28How do you fail such a simple task? What good are you?
16:32That gladiator is too strong. We have no chance. His fighting style is just like...
16:39Just like what?
16:41It's just like the consul. I served in the army before and saw the consul fight.
16:47They're identical.
16:52What? That's impossible.
16:54The consul died on the battlefield long ago.
16:57He can't be alive!
16:58My lord! Rumors say he didn't die. He went missing!
17:02It's possible. He's right here in the Julius Arena.
17:06What?
17:07What do we do now?
17:09If it's really him, we're doomed.
17:12Young Master Coralus, I've seen the consul before.
17:17I can confirm if it's truly him.
17:20Fine. We'll go there tomorrow.
17:23We'll find out if that man is the Roman consular.
17:37Lady Cassandra ordered me to guard her chamber door.
17:40The noise must have already woken her up.
17:44She's probably looking for me right now.
18:01Who exactly am I?
18:07Marcus, did you take all of them down alone?
18:10Marcus!
18:11Who exactly are you?
18:14I really can't remember who I am.
18:28My lord, I am Galen, a senior gladiator.
18:32Welcome to the Julius Arena.
18:43Lord Consul!
18:49What?
18:50The consul?
18:53Could it be?
18:56The consul?
18:58Is it possible?
19:06Could I be the Roman consul?
19:12Could I be the Roman consular?
19:17Galen?
19:31Galen!
19:32Why would you hurt him?
19:35Galen has never offended you in any way!
19:41Young Master Corophus, he's not the consul.
19:45It seems I misjudged yesterday.
19:48But this Galen must have been the one blocking our plan.
19:50So I took it upon myself to cripple him.
19:53What do you think?
19:57Well done, Goliath.
19:58Lowly commoner.
20:00How dare you come so close and spook my horse.
20:04As the heir of the Claudius family,
20:06I'm merely punishing a nobody who dared to disrespect me.
20:18What?
20:19Do you dare raise a hand against me?
20:21Everyone stay calm.
20:22He's a noble, someone we can't afford to cross.
20:29Lowly commoner, you're in my way.
20:32Move aside.
20:33A land built on freedom and equality.
20:36Not even nobles have the right to abuse or punish commoners at will.
20:44Who are you?
20:56I didn't hear you.
20:58Speak again.
21:01Are you deaf?
21:03Very well, you insolent commoner.
21:07Rome stands for freedom and equality.
21:09No noble has the right to abuse or harm its people without cause.
21:14If you think you're above the Senate's law, I will press charges.
21:18Go on, I dare you.
21:21Are you threatening me?
21:29Marcus, you fool.
21:31Get on your knees and beg Lord Koros for forgiveness.
21:34Right now.
21:35Lord Koros is the firstborn of House Claudius.
21:38You backwater fool.
21:39If you want to live, get on your knees and beg his forgiveness.
21:41Idiot.
21:42Do you want to end up like Galem?
21:45My lord, let me tear this wretch apart.
21:50Not yet.
21:52My lord?
21:53Damn it.
21:54Who is this peasant?
21:55How does he know the Elder Council punishes nobles who wantly abuse citizens?
21:59Good.
22:00I see you.
22:03Let's see if you're still this bold when you're standing in the arena.
22:12Were they here to issue a challenge?
22:14Damn them all.
22:15Galen is the strongest senior gladiator in this arena.
22:18That bastard crippled him on purpose.
22:20Now they think they can walk all over us.
22:22No.
22:23The young ladies are in danger.
22:25We have to check on them now.
22:28Someone help me up.
22:33A hollow fool like that only picks on common citizens.
22:36The Julius family stands on equal fording of the Claudius family, both old Roman bloodlines.
22:40What danger could Lady Cassandra and Lady Octavia possibly be in?
22:49Hurry up!
22:50I heard that the playboy from the Claude family came with people today to challenge us.
22:54A thrilling spectacle awaits.
22:55The Julius family is in for serious trouble this time.
23:02Sister, that playboy from the Claudius family.
23:05He's been making such a big show of it, announcing he's coming to challenge our arena.
23:09What do you think he's up to?
23:10Rome's great houses have never stopped fighting each other.
23:13It's only been the consul's authority to maintain the peace.
23:15Now that the consul is in God knows where, Chorus couldn't wait to jump at the opening.
23:19There's something behind this.
23:22My, my, ladies.
23:24It's been a while.
23:25And you're both even more beautiful than I remember.
23:28Where exactly are you looking for?
23:30You're disgusting!
23:31Chorus!
23:32The Julius family's arena is open to all, but if you continue to conduct yourself this way,
23:36you are not welcome here.
23:37Just leave.
23:39Word is the Julius family has been having some financial difficulties lately.
23:44Consider this my gift.
23:46Bring it forward.
23:47Yes, my lord.
23:55That much gold?
23:57What in Rome is he planning?
23:59No, he wants a wage about.
24:01The stakes are too high.
24:02We refuse.
24:03Chorus, take your money and find another arena to play in.
24:05Rome's laws have no provision limiting the size of a wager.
24:09Everything I'm doing is entirely legal.
24:11Unless, of course, you'd like to shut the arena down right now.
24:16Cassandra, if we close the arena,
24:18our finances will completely collapse,
24:20and the Julius reputation will never recover.
24:24Then what do we do?
24:26We have to accept.
24:28Send Galen into the ring.
24:31Corvus, the Julius family accepts your challenge.
24:34Give us a moment to make the arrangements.
24:38No need to go to the trouble.
24:40They'll be here shortly.
24:42Galen, can you hold on?
24:43Don't worry about me!
24:45Just get to Lady Cassandra!
24:46Go!
24:50What?!
24:52Galen, you're...
24:55A challenge?
24:57Three chests of gold and jewels?
24:59This Claudian playboy came all this way,
25:02just to hand over his money?
25:14You fool!
25:15You really think the young master of House Claudus is afraid of you?
25:19Watch your charge!
25:20Stop making trouble!
25:21And go!
25:22Now!
25:24Marcus, get back!
25:26This is no place for you to trouble with!
25:29Marcus.
25:30That's a familiar name.
25:32Where have I heard it before?
25:34Lady Octavia, I...
25:35There's no time to explain!
25:37Get to the back!
25:38Are you ignoring me now?
25:42Corvus!
25:43You despicable snake!
25:45You deliberately ambushed my finest gladiator and then placed a fortune on the challenge?
25:50If the consul ever hears of this treachery, he will strip you of your title and cast you into slavery.
25:56The consul?
25:58He's dead.
26:00Let me share a little secret with you, Lady Cassandra.
26:03The Senate is already preparing the next election,
26:06and the next consul will be Lord Lucius of House Cato.
26:09Impossible!
26:10The consul is Rome's greatest commander.
26:12The undefeated warrior, how could he possibly be dead?
26:16You vile, scheming rats!
26:18When the consul returns, every last one of you is finished!
26:21By all means, let him come.
26:23I'm right here.
26:24Go ahead.
26:24Send him to punish me now.
26:29Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
26:30Stars!
26:31Stars!
26:32Stars!
26:33Hear that crowd out there?
26:35They're crazy for blood.
26:36So tell me, Lady Cassandra, shall we begin?
26:44If they win the challenge, there's no way we can cover that sum.
26:48Under Roman arena betting rules, we'd have no choice but to forfeit this arena to him.
26:54Cassandra, absolutely not!
26:55This arena is the treasure of generations of the Julius family.
26:58We cannot just hand it over, but if we refuse the challenge, the Julius family's reputation
27:03will be shattered.
27:05We are Romans.
27:07We can die brave and free, but we will never live as cowards.
27:11Tess!
27:12How admirable, Miss Cassandra!
27:14How about this?
27:19As long as both young ladies agree to marry me, I'll withdraw the challenge.
27:24You keep your family's honor.
27:25You keep this arena.
27:26What do you say?
27:27Don't even dream of it.
27:29People like you are not worthy of marrying our sisters at all.
27:32Miss Cassandra, let me fight.
27:34I will defend the Julius family's honor with my life.
27:37My lady!
27:39Send me into the arena!
27:44They did this to me on purpose!
27:46How about I give it a try?
27:48I can hold my own in a fight.
27:51Big guy, stay put.
27:53We don't have time to deal with you right now.
27:57Marcus, I know what you mean.
27:59But you've never had proper gladiator training.
28:02And you're still carrying an injury.
28:05The thought is enough.
28:08Corus, I, Cassandra Julius, formally accept your challenge on behalf of the Julius family.
28:15Both sides may now send their champions into the arena.
28:18Maiden, go.
28:22Goliath, go.
28:25Yes, young Master Corvus.
28:32It's him?
28:34The legendary gold-class gladiator, Goliath the Raging Wolf.
28:54So it was him.
28:56Goliath the Raging Wolf.
28:58Of course, only a gold-ranked gladiator like him could drop me in a single ambush strike.
29:03Isn't he with the Cato family?
29:05What is he doing at Corvus' side?
29:07Dudes, don't worry.
29:09Before I die, I'll drain every ounce of strength out of him.
29:13Finishing the job, I'm leaving that to you.
29:17Is he really that dangerous?
29:19Looks pretty ordinary to me.
29:20Do you have any idea of what you're saying?
29:22Did you see the tattoo on his back?
29:23He once killed a giant wolf in the arena with his bare hand!
29:26Maiden is putting his life on the line to buy us a chance.
29:29To bleed Goliath the Raging Wolf dry and you dare look down on him?
29:32Think you're better?
29:33Then you go fight him!
29:34Fine.
29:35Let me go.
29:48You're not taking a weapon?
29:51I don't need one to kill you.
29:53You're underestimating me!
30:22Is this all the Julia Family has?
30:24The rest of you, come down here. Stop wasting my time. Make your move, or I finish him right now.
30:39Madden, he was defeated that easily?
30:42Could it be that a century of Julius' family legacy ends at my hands today?
30:48My dear ladies, surely you wouldn't want to lose your century-old family arena.
30:55Just say yes to marrying me, and all your problems are solved.
31:13My lady, allow me. I'll make them pay for this.
31:17You bastard! You want to die too?!
31:24Is this guy out of his mind? I know, right? He just keeps provoking Lord Corus again. He must really
31:29want to die.
31:31Think Goliath's gonna twist his head clean off?
31:34Are you out of your mind, big guy? We found you half dead out in the wilderness.
31:39You couldn't even remember your own name!
31:42It's been a few days, and now you want to fight?!
31:46No! Marcus, I will not allow it! You are not setting foot on that arena floor!
31:52But...
31:55You little punk!
31:56What, you think the rest of us are already dead?
31:58As long as we still breathe, no one gets to trample the honor of House Julius!
32:04That's right! We will protect Lady Cassandra and Lady Octavia with our lives!
32:07This is not your fight, rookie! Know your place!
32:12Exactly!
32:13There are so many of us!
32:15Together we might just be able to take down that ugly monster!
32:20That was Goliath acting on his own impulse.
32:23As his master, I never gave my approval.
32:26Goliath...
32:27After you defeat the Julius Gladiator,
32:30Taunt them.
32:31Bait them.
32:32Don't kill him right away.
32:34Gout every last one of them into coming at you together.
32:37Uh... Why?
32:38Because then they'll fool themselves into thinking they still have a chance.
32:42And that gives me excuse to coax them for raising the stakes.
32:46Ha ha ha, Lord Corius!
32:47Your scheme is absolutely brilliant!
32:49Even the Goddess Athena herself would applaud for you!
32:53I could agree to let all of you fight at once.
32:56But that depends.
33:04If you lose again,
33:06I won't just take the Julius family's arena.
33:08I'll take you both as my brides.
33:15I've been generous enough to offer you a chance.
33:18Whether you seize it,
33:20depends on whether you ladies possess the nerve.
33:23Corvus, you're the worst disgrace Roman nobility has ever seen!
33:28Don't. Not now.
33:32Very well.
33:33We accept your terms.
33:36Cassandra!
33:38Octavia.
33:39We have no other choice.
33:41This is the only path left that gives us even a hope.
33:44To save what our family has built over a hundred years.
33:48We cannot give up.
33:50Ha ha ha.
33:51Oh, and one more condition.
33:53That big one back there.
33:55He fights, too.
33:58What?
34:00No!
34:01Absolutely not!
34:02Marcus won't change result!
34:03You're just sending him to death!
34:05I am part of this arena, am I?
34:07I am part of this arena, am I?
34:08You saved my life.
34:10I will not run from this.
34:17All right.
34:18But you're badly injured, you can't slow the others down.
34:22You go last.
34:23If Cole and the others, a dozen fighters, still can't bring down the Raging Wolf,
34:28then the outcome is already sealed.
34:31When that moment comes, I'll have no choice but to concede.
34:34And Marcus will never need to set foot in that arena at all.
34:57Well, well.
34:59Didn't think anyone would be stupid enough to show up.
35:09No!
35:15So fast!
35:23No!
35:25No!
35:25No!
35:29No!
35:30No!
35:30Weak.
35:31You.
35:33miserable curse
35:35just so pathetically weak
35:42it's over
35:44we've lost
35:47Cassandra
35:54Cassandra
35:54Octea from this moment on
35:57you both belong to me
35:58now let me
36:05Lord Corvus
36:06my lord are you alright
36:07you're dead
36:08even if this reaches the Elder Council
36:10you are finished
36:11a mere commoner dares to attack me
36:14I'll tear you to pieces
36:16I don't care who you are
36:18disrespect Lady Cassandra one more time
36:22I'll make you regret having these hands
36:29Cassandra
36:30you think she could protect you
36:31the match is over
36:32I won
36:33this arena now belongs to House Claudius
36:36and those two sisters have bet themselves right into my hands
36:39you lowly commoner
36:40I have 10,000 ways to make you suffer
36:46I haven't fought yet
36:47what makes you think you've won?
36:51good
36:52you said it yourself
36:53I was afraid you will be a coward and not to fight
36:58Goliath
36:59kill this person
37:00make him dumb
37:01this arrogant little wretch actually dares to challenge me
37:05yes young master Corius
37:07I'll make sure he suffers the most brutal death this world has ever seen
37:11Marcus
37:12are your injuries healed?
37:15just now
37:16you sent Corvus flying with a single slap
37:18don't tell me
37:19he actually moved that 2,000 pound weapon rack by himself?
37:22my injuries haven't fully healed
37:23that's true
37:24but dealing with trash like him
37:26that's hardly a challenge
37:27then
37:28what weapon are you most skilled with?
37:30if there's nothing in the ready room
37:31I'll have one brought to you immediately
37:32no need to take a detour for a weapon
37:34I'll go down from right here
37:36directly from here?
38:01Marcus
38:03he's actually that strong?
38:07Cassandra
38:08do you think he can win?
38:10Miss Cassandra
38:11maybe
38:12maybe Marcus really can defeat the raging wolf
38:15Goliath
38:16before any of this
38:17Marcus moved the entire weapon rack on his own
38:19the entire weapon rack?
38:20that olive wood frame you used during training?
38:22including all the blades?
38:23that must weigh well over 2,000 pounds
38:25what nonsense are you talking about?
38:27no one can lift something that heavy
38:29Goliath is a golden ranked gladiator
38:31renowned across all of Rome
38:33there aren't even 30 men at his rank
38:35in this entire city
38:36what makes you think some nobody
38:38can defeat the raging wolf Goliath?
38:41Marcus
38:41you cannot lose
38:43you just can't
38:44Marcus
38:44come on
38:45if you beat that ugly monster
38:47I'll
38:48I'll
38:48I'll give you a special reward
38:57Marcus
38:59you have to be careful
39:00that man's speed
39:01his strength
39:02it's just
39:03it's absolutely terrifying
39:04got it
39:16it's a long walk
39:17from the VIP stands
39:18to the arena floor
39:20how did he get here so fast?
39:22huh
39:23can't say I've ever seen a challenger
39:25in such eager to die
39:26what a treat
39:29ignorance
39:30want to take a guess?
39:32how many punches do you think
39:33it'll take me to put you down?
39:35you sure like to talk
39:40now you've really done it
40:03how could it be possible?
40:21why
40:23why are you such strong?
40:30just now you were stomping my friend's head
40:33looked like you enjoyed it
40:36no
40:37no no
40:38that's not
40:38I was only following
40:39Lord Corius's orders
40:41it's a misunderstanding
40:42please
40:43forgive me
40:44I'm begging you
41:02that
41:03that's
41:03a war god
41:05he must be blessed by Ares himself
41:07no
41:07it's Apollo
41:09the god of the sun
41:10watches over him
41:11oh gods of Olympus
41:12is this warrior
41:13the chosen champion
41:14you have gifted to Rome?
41:16he carries the blessing
41:16of every god
41:17he must be a son of the gods
41:19son of the gods
41:21son of the gods
41:23oh
41:24Cassandra
41:25Marcus did it
41:27he saved the Julius family
41:29he's our savior
41:30yes
41:31he truly did it
41:33Marcus
41:34he is our hero
41:36impossible
41:37this is impossible
41:39this is impossible
41:39Goliath is a gold-ranked gladiator
41:41renowned across all of Rome
41:43how could he lose to a nobody?
41:47this gold was given by Lord Lucius
41:49not only have I failed to take the Julius family
41:52I've lost every last coin
41:54how in the gods' names do I face him now?
41:58no
41:59you have not won
42:00I demand another wager
42:02right now
42:03another wager?
42:05Corvus
42:06let me make this clear
42:07you have lost every single coin to your name
42:09on what possible grounds
42:11do you think you can challenge us again?
42:12on the grounds of that man's insolence
42:14a wretched commoner
42:16who dared strike the heir
42:17of the noble Claudius family in public
42:20refuse my terms
42:21and I will take this straight to the senate
42:23and when I do
42:24that miserable peasant
42:26will be condemned to death
42:30Lady Cassandra
42:31do not trouble yourself
42:35accept his terms
42:38under Roman law
42:39a commoner who strikes a nobleman
42:41cannot be forgiven
42:42the punishment is absolute
42:43but now
42:44there is only one path left
42:47Corvus
42:48you threatened Marcus' life
42:50to coerce me
42:50didn't you?
42:52so what?
42:52you want another challenge?
42:54you can have one
42:54but you have nothing left to bargain with
42:56if you insist on this
42:58I will wager every coin I won from you
43:00this arena that has been the Julius family's legacy for generations
43:03and our marriage contracts
43:05Octavia's and mine
43:06I am betting all of it
43:07against every asset the Claudius family holds on your name
43:10a commoner striking a nobleman is a capital offense
43:12so all I need to do is strip Corvus of his nobility
43:15and reduce him to a commoner himself
43:17you already pulled your family back from the brink of ruin
43:20and yet you would throw everything
43:21your fortune
43:22your arena
43:23even yourself
43:23onto the table for a worthless commoner
43:25that's my last word
43:26do you have the nerve to bet?
43:27that's right
43:28we're being gracious enough to give you this chance
43:30if you can't even summon the courage to take it
43:32then no one in all of Rome will ever respect you again
43:34damn you
43:34these insufferable women
43:36they've left me no choice at all
43:37if I want to preserve the honor of the Claudius family
43:40I have no option but to accept
43:41but if I lose
43:43I lose everything
43:44I will become a commoner
43:46fine!
43:47I accept!
43:49you commoner
43:50you brought this on yourself
43:51I'll watch you get torn to pieces
43:54don't waste my time
43:56show me what you've got
44:00besides I've still got to win
44:01a special reward from Lady Octavia
44:09when Marcus entered the arena
44:10you did promise him
44:11if he won he'd receive a special reward
44:13Octavia
44:14what have you prepared?
44:15if I tell you now
44:16it won't be a surprise anymore
44:17he saved us both
44:18I intend to offer something of my own as well
44:20I made a promise to myself
44:22if Marcus could save my sister
44:24our family
44:24our fate
44:25I would give myself to him
44:27and he actually did it
44:30go
44:31push the cage into the arena
44:33yes, young master Corophus
44:35how fortunate
44:35beyond Goliath
44:36I had Lord Lucius
44:37procure something far more entertaining
44:39a northern great bear
44:40in all of Rome
44:41there are no more than
44:42three warriors alive
44:43who could hope to face
44:44such a feast
44:44Marcus
44:45I want to see that pathetic
44:47tear-streaked face of yours
44:48down on your knees
44:49begging
44:54Marcus
44:54I owe you an apology
44:56for how we treated you before
44:57you are the greatest warrior
44:59I have ever seen
45:00please
45:00keep winning
45:01the fate of the Julius family
45:03and both of the young ladies
45:05rests entirely in your hands
45:06every one of you fought
45:07with an unbreakable spirit
45:08you are worth to be called
45:10warriors of Rome
45:11go rest
45:11I'll hold this ground
45:14yes, Lord Marcus
45:35a roar like that
45:36only one beast in this world
45:38makes such a sound
45:42gods above
45:43not only do we get to see
45:44the supreme warrior
45:45face a gold-tier gladiator
45:46but there might actually
45:47be a death hunt today
45:48the son of the gods
45:49is destined to claim gold-tier
45:51no, he'll become
45:52a legend of Rome
45:53but facing a beast alone
45:54that's sheer madness
45:56isn't it?
45:56a cart that muses
45:58whatever's in there
45:59is no ordinary wolf
46:00search every arena in Rome
46:02and you'd barely find
46:03a single man
46:03who's ever taken down
46:04a great beast alone
46:20just as I suspected
46:22a northern giant bear
46:24to face a beast of this monster
46:26in a death hunt
46:26you'd need at least
46:27ten elite gladiators
46:28working together
46:29and even then
46:31killing a bear that size
46:32would cost more than half
46:33their lives
46:34this isn't fair
46:35Cassandra, open the gate
46:36let Marcus out
46:37right now
46:38there's no time left
46:39escape
46:40I starved that beast
46:41for an entire month
46:42just for today
46:43not only Marcus
46:45if you put its own cubs
46:46before it right now
46:47it would tear them apart
46:48without hesitation
46:50Marcus
46:50and let's not forget
46:52this is a death hunt
46:53once it begins
46:54only one side
46:55walks out alive
46:56that is the rule
46:57of every last one
46:58of Rome's 300 arenas
46:59I won't just take back
47:00everything I've lost
47:01I'll claim the Julius family's
47:03grand arena
47:03and both of you
47:04pretty little prizes
47:05along with it
47:07oh and best of all
47:08that worthless commoner Marcus
47:10I get to watch
47:11that northern giant bear
47:13tear him apart
47:13and tear him apart
47:14right before my very eyes
47:16what a glorious sight
47:17that will be
47:28did you see that
47:29the man was so terrified
47:31his legs gave out
47:32he couldn't even run
47:33just watch it
47:34that miserable wretch
47:35will be torn to pieces
47:36by the northern bear soon
47:38both of you
47:39burn this into your memory
47:41this is what happens
47:42to those who dare
47:43cross Chorus Cloudus
47:45you guys
47:46if anything happens
47:47to Marcus
47:47I'll throw you off
47:49this ledge
47:50with my own hands
47:51ah
47:51ah
47:53ah
47:53damn you
47:54you
47:55you vile
47:59enough
48:00enough
48:14gods above
48:15what in the name of Rome
48:17is he doing
48:17why would he turn his back
48:19on the northern bear
48:20move
48:20move already
48:21I can't watch
48:22oh gods of Olympus
48:24please watch over
48:25this great warrior of Rome
48:26look
48:27the northern bear
48:28it's charging straight at him
48:36all that size
48:37and you afraid
48:38but a waste of a body
48:45Marcus
48:45he stood there
48:47scanning for so long
48:48was he choosing a weapon
48:49then why did he only
48:50pick such a short dagger
48:51there were spears
48:53great swords
48:53yet he only took a dagger
48:55and what's more
48:57so what if he's strong
48:59a blade that short
49:01is like a mosquito bite
49:02to a great northern bear
49:03this humble gladiator
49:05utterly beyond redemption
49:07in his arrogance
49:07who does he think he is
49:10Marcus's expression
49:11never changed
49:11not once
49:12if anything
49:13there was contempt
49:14in his eyes
49:14could he truly
49:15truly
49:16be confident
49:17he can kill a fully grown
49:18great northern bear
49:42this
49:43how is that even possible
49:45is he even human
49:46Cassandra
49:47he did it
49:48Marcus is literally a god
49:50even across all of Rome
49:51there are barely a handful
49:52who could do what he just did
49:53yes
49:54he actually did it
49:56but Marcus
49:57a warrior this powerful
49:59this unstoppable
49:59there is no way
50:00you were a nobody
50:01who are you
50:02really
50:22still want to fight back
50:37yes
50:38yes
50:39yes
51:03Son of the God, Marcus!
51:12My Lord Marcus, you are a true God of War. From this day forward, I, Cole, is at your service.
51:24We swear to follow Lord Marcus! We are yours unto death!
51:35Stand up. Every one of you is a warrior of Rome.
51:43Impossible. This can't be happening. He's not human. He's a monster. I lost. I've been utterly defeated.
52:02Marcus, who are you really?
52:09Cassandra! Marcus is incredible! He actually did it! I knew he could! I just knew it!
52:17I did promise. A special reward if he won.
52:23Alright. Let's go down. It's time to properly thank our hero.
52:39Marcus. Cassandra. Just you wait. I will not let this go.
52:53Marcus, it must be hard for you. Have some water. Your wounds still haven't fully healed, and you just fought
53:02through two brutal matches. Do you need more time to rest?
53:08I'm fine, sir. I'm fine, sir. Nothing. Thank you for your concern, Lady Cassandra.
53:14Marcus, here. Clean clothes for you. And... and the special reward I promised you.
53:26So this is... the special reward?
53:29Alright, little Octavia. Enough. Marcus needs his rest. Let's go.
53:39Lord Consul. Who am I really?
53:42Useless. Absolutely useless. I handed you every resource imaginable to take the Julius family's arena, and you couldn't even take
53:50down a nobody?
53:51Lord Lucius, I was wrong. But that Marcus, he's not an ordinary man. He defeated Goliath and killed the northern
53:56giant bear with his bare hands. He's something else entirely.
53:58Not ordinary. No matter how capable he is, could he possibly compare to Marcus Scipia? That so-called God of
54:04War of Rome, I ambushed him myself and left his body for the wolves.
54:07I've been organizing a national gladiatorial tournament as a grand spectacle. My champion Titan will take the crown. And when
54:12he does, all of Rome will understand exactly what I'm capable of.
54:15The Senate will have no choice but to bow. As for that, Marcus, go tell the Julius family to enter
54:20him in the tournament. I want to see for myself whether he can stand up to Titan's fists.
54:25Yes. Thank you, Lord Lucius. I will see to it at once.
54:28.
54:29.
54:30.
