00:05Hold the line!
00:08Charge!
00:24Charge!
00:26For you!
00:30Charge!
00:56My lady Cassandra, there's a body.
01:12Goats!
01:14Octavia, the news from the Senate. The concept has gone missing.
01:20Many believe he is already died impossible. He is the greatest general of Rome. I can't believe it
01:31Gods of Olympias, we offer all for you to watch over the consular. Please bring him safely to Rome
01:39Warriors of Rome, follow me!
01:45Long live the Rome!
01:49Marcus, what happens on you? Were you actually a soldier of in that Roman legion?
01:53My lady Octavia, I don't know. My head is throbbing. I lose some memory.
01:58Octavia, when we found Marcus, his memory was gone. He hasn't fully healed. Whether he was a soldier or a
02:05common man, don't...
02:07Father him.
02:14Marcus, you haven't fully recovered. Just 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. You better stay where you are. Know your place, fool. Watch yourself.
02:40Eyes down.
02:50Hey, punk. What's that look? Come on. Give him a weapon.
03:00Pick it up. Fight me.
03:04Galen once fought a black bear. Marcus is doomed.
03:19I promise Lady Cassandra, I won't fight.
03:23Can't even lift an axe. What 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...
03:43This will be your fate!
03:48Galen, 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.
04:13Boy, you better behave yourselves. Let's go!
04:20Marcus! Hurry up with the hot water!
04:25Alright.
04:28Oh.
04:56Jimmy.
04:57I mean...
04:57Jimmy.
04:58It's like, man...
05:06I'm not fully recovered yet.
05:08I need to take this guy down quickly.
05:58I need to take this guy down quickly.
06:24I 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 Iftar 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...
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.
07:47I don't want to.
07:48Octavia, where have you been again?
07:48Octavia, where have you been again?
07:57You, Marcus!
07:59Why 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.
08:10Hm.
08:10Go stand guard outside.
08:11Don'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.
08:59Dmitri, the Gladiator Arena is magnificent. I like it very much. As for the Cassandra sisters, I wish to get
09:06to know them better.
09:07Young Master Corvus.
09:09After tonight, this arena will be yours, and those two as well. Good. Go now, and make it happen.
09:32Baka, take your men to the animal cages on the east side. Break the cage doors while the beasts are
09:37asleep. I'll lead my people to Seet Pharah to the main building.
09:41Understood.
09:44It's just a fallen family, held up by only a few women. Young Master Corvy is far too cautious. A
09:50couple of guys could easily handle this.
09:52They've given me a sign. I will not die today.
09:55What business is that? Care to tell me?
09:58Who are you? Where are the others? Show yourselves.
10:05Prisoners have no right to ask questions. Just you alone? How dare you be so arrogant? Dammit! Kill him!
10:13Kill him!
10:25Keep it down. Don't let him make a sound. We've got bigger fish to fry. Don't worry, boss. We're pros
10:30at this.
10:34Why just stand there? Too scared to run?
10:43Looking for me?
10:45Come on!
10:47Not yet.
10:55Who's just sitting there?
10:57I'm gonna die.
10:57Who wants to catch that?
10:58I'm gonna die.
11:04No.
11:05I'm gonna die.
11:06Let's kill him.
11:10Oh my God.
11:12I'm not one.
11:12No.
11:12No.
11:13You too.
11:13What are you?
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?
11:54This... this is impossible.
11:56This person's skills seem to be those of the missing, the Consul.
12:05Now, care to tell me what you're really planning?
12:09Stay back!
12:11Take one more step forward.
12:16I'll set everything ablaze.
12:19The entire arena will burn to the ground!
12:23Oil jars.
12:25You dare set fire to this place?
12:29This 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.
12:42Hold him off.
12:43I'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...
13:05Well...
13:10Well...
13:15Ungh...
13:21Ungh...
13:33Ungh...
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?
13:52Don't ruin young Master Corvey'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.
14:14Damn it! 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?
14:47Now there's only one way left.
15:07These beasts are Lady Cassandra's prized property. I can't use a blade.
15:25I can't use a blade.
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.
16:29How do you fail such a simple task? What good are you?
16:33That gladiator is too strong. We have no chance. His fighting style is just like...
16:40Just like what?
16:41It's just like the consul. I served in the army before and saw the consul fight. They're identical.
16:51What? That's impossible. The 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.
17:07What? What do we do now?
17:09If it's really him, we're doomed.
17:12Young Master Corobus, I've seen the consul before.
17:17I can confirm if it's truly him.
17:21Fine. 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?
18:15I really can't remember who I am.
18:28My lord, I am Galen, a senior gladiator.
18:32Welcome to the Julius Arena.
18:44Lord Consul!
18:49What?
18:51The 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?
19:31Galen?
19:32Why would you hurt him?
19:35Galen has never offended you in any way!
19:41Young master Coriphas, he's not the consul.
19:45It seems I misjudged yesterday.
19:48But this Galen must have been the one blocking our plan.
19:51So I took it upon myself to cripple him.
19:53What do you think?
19:57Well done, Goliath.
19:58Well done, Goliath.
19:59Lowly commoner!
20:01How dare you come so close and spook my horse.
20:04As the heir of the Claudius family, I'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.
20:23He's a noble.
20:23Someone we can't afford to cross.
20:30Lowly commoner, you're in my way.
20:32Move aside.
20:34A 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.
21:05You insolent commoner.
21:07Rome stands for freedom and equality.
21:10No 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.
21:19Go on, I dare you.
21:21Are you threatening me?
21:29Marcus, you fool!
21:31Get on your knees and beg Lord Korus for forgiveness!
21:34Right now!
21:35Lord Korus is the firstborn of House Claudius, you 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!
21:46Let me tear this stretch apart!
21:50Not yet.
21:53My lord?
21:54Damn 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 over 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 Claudius family came with people today to challenge us!
22:54A thrilling spectacle awaits!
22:56The 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.
23:07Announcing 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.
23:12It's only been the consul's authority to maintain the peace.
23:15Now that the consul is in God knows where, Corus 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!
23:31Corus!
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.
24:03Corus, 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.
24:15Cassandra, if we close the arena, our finances will completely collapse, and the Julius reputation
24:22will 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!
24:44Just get to Lady Cassandra!
24:46Go!
24:49What?
24:52Galen, you're...
24:55A challenge?
24:57Three chests of gold and jewels?
25:00This Claudian playboy came all this way,
25:02just to hand over his money?
25:14You fool!
25:16You 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!
25:25Marcus, 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?
25:43Corvus!
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.
25:57The 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!
26:19When the consul returns, every last one of you is finished!
26:22By all means, let him come.
26:23I'm right here.
26:24Go ahead.
26:24Send him to punish me now.
26:33Hear that crowd out there?
26:35They're crazy for blood.
26:37So tell me, Lady Cassandra, shall we begin?
26:45If they win the challenge, there's no way we can cover that sum.
26:49Under 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.
27:00But if we refuse the challenge, the Julius family's reputation will be shattered.
27:19As long as both young ladies agree to marry me, I'll withdraw the challenge, you keep your family's honor, you
27:25keep this arena.
27:26Miss Cassandra, what do you say?
27:28Don'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, send 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.
28:00But you've never had proper gladiator training.
28:03And you're still carrying an injury.
28:04The 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.
28:19Maiden, go.
28:23Goliath, go.
28:25Yes, young master Corvus.
28:32It's him?
28:35The 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!
29:26Marden 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!
30:27Stop wasting my time!
30:29Make your move, or I finish him right now!
30:34Raging Wolf!
30:35Raging Wolf!
30:37Raging Wolf!
30:38Marden!
30:40He was defeated that easily?
30:42Could it be that a century of Julia's 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.
31:14I'll make them pay for this.
31:17You bastard!
31:19You want to die too?
31:24Is this guy out of his mind?
31:26I know, right?
31:27He just keeps provoking Lord Chorus again.
31:29He must really want to die.
31:31Think Goliath's going to twist his head clean off?
31:34Are you out of your mind, big guy?
31:37We found you half dead out in the wilderness.
31:40You 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.
31:48You are not setting foot on that arena floor.
31:52But...
31:55You little punk.
31:57What, you think the rest of us are already dead?
31:59As long as we still breathe, no one gets to trample the honor of House Julius.
32:04That's right.
32:04We will protect Lady Cassandra and Lady Octavia with our lives.
32:08This is not your fight, Rookie.
32:09Know 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.
32:28After 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 Chorus.
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,
33:05I 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.
33:29Not 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.
33:45To save what our family has built over a hundred years.
33:48We cannot give up.
33:52Oh, and one more condition.
33:54That 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?
34:08You saved my life.
34:10I will not run from this.
34:17All right.
34:19But you're badly injured,
34:20you can't slow the others down.
34:22You go last.
34:24If Cole and the others,
34:25a dozen fighters,
34:26still can't bring down the raging wolf,
34:28then the outcome is already sealed.
34:31When that moment comes,
34:32I'll have no choice but to conceive.
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.
35:14So fast.
35:29Weak.
35:31You.
35:34Miserable curse.
35:35Just so pathetically weak.
35:37The raging wolf.
35:39The raging wolf.
35:40The raging wolf.
35:43It's over.
35:45We've lost.
35:48Cassandra.
35:54Cassandra.
35:55Octavia, from this moment on,
35:57you both belong to me.
35:59Now let me...
36:05Lord Corvus.
36:07My lord, are you all right?
36:08You're dead.
36:09Even if this reaches the Elder Council,
36:11you are finished.
36:12A mere commoner dares to attack me?
36:14I'll tear you to pieces.
36:16I don't care who you are.
36:19Disrespect Lady Cassandra one more time.
36:22I'll make you regret having these hands.
36:30Cassandra, you think she could protect you?
36:32The match is over.
36:33I 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.
36:54I 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!
37:12Marcus, are your injuries healed?
37:15Just now, you 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, that's true.
37:24But dealing with trash like him, that's hardly a challenge.
37:27Then, what weapon are you most skilled with?
37:30If there's nothing in the ready room, I'll have one brought to you immediately.
37:33No need to take a detour for a weapon.
37:35I'll go down from right here.
37:36Directly from here?
38:02Marcus, he's actually that strong?
38:07Cassandra?
38:09Do you think he can win?
38:10Miss Cassandra, maybe...
38:12Maybe Marcus really can defeat the raging wolf.
38:15Goliath!
38:16Before any of this, Marcus 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.
38:24What nonsense are you talking about?
38:27No one can lift something that heavy.
38:29Goliath is a golden-ranked gladiator, renowned across all of Rome.
38:34There aren't even 30 men at his rank in this entire city.
38:36What makes you think some nobody can defeat the raging wolf Goliath?
38:41Marcus, you cannot lose.
38:43You just can't.
38:44Marcus, come on!
38:45If you beat that ugly monster, I'll...
38:48I'll give you a special reward!
38:57Marcus.
38:59You have to be careful.
39:01That man's speed, his strength, it's just...
39:03It's absolutely terrifying.
39:05Got it.
39:08What?
39:10What?
39:10What?
39:12What?
39:13What?
39:16It's a long walk from the VIP stands to the arena floor.
39:20How did he get here so fast?
39:23Huh.
39:23Can't say I've ever seen a challenger in such eager to die.
39:27What a treat.
39:29Ignorance!
39:30Want to take a guess?
39:32How many punches do you think it'll take me to put you down?
39:35You sure like to talk.
39:41Now you've really done it!
40:03How could it be possible?
40:05How could it be possible?
40:08How could it be possible?
40:20How 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.
40:37No!
40:37No, no!
40:38That's not...
40:38I was only following Lord Vincorius' orders.
40:41It's a misunderstanding.
40:43Please, forgive me.
40:44I'm begging you.
41:02That...
41:03That's...
41:04A war god!
41:05He must be blessed by Ares himself!
41:07No!
41:08It's Apollo!
41:09The god of the sun watches over him!
41:11Oh, gods of Olympus, is this warrior the chosen champion you have gifted to Rome?
41:16He carries the blessing of every god.
41:18He must be a son of the gods.
41:19Son of the gods!
41:21Son of the gods!
41:24Ah, Cassandra!
41:26Marcus did it!
41:27He saved the Julius family!
41:29He's our savior!
41:30Yes, he truly did it.
41:34Marcus, he is our hero.
41:36Impossible!
41:37This is impossible!
41:39Goliath is a gold-ranked gladiator, renowned across all of Rome!
41:44How could he lose to a nobody?
41:47This gold was given by Lord Lucius.
41:50Not only have I failed to take the Julius family, I've lost every last coin.
41:55How in the gods' names do I face him now?
41:58No!
41:59You have not won!
42:01I demand another wager!
42:03Right now!
42:04Another wager?
42:05Corvus, let me make this clear.
42:07You have lost every single coin to your name.
42:09On what possible grounds do you think you can challenge us again?
42:13On the grounds of that man's insolence.
42:15A wretched commoner, who dared strike the heir of the noble Claudius family in public!
42:20Refuse my terms, and I will take this straight to the Senate.
42:24And when I do, that miserable peasant will be condemned to death.
42:30Lady Cassandra, do not trouble yourself.
42:35Accept his terms.
42:38Under Roman law, a commoner who strikes a nobleman cannot be forgiven.
42:42The punishment is absolute.
42:44But now, there is only one path left.
42:47Corvus, you threatened Marcus' life to coerce me, didn't you?
42:52So what?
42:52You want another challenge?
42:54You can have one.
42:55But you have nothing left to bargain with.
42:57If you insist on this, I will wager every coin I won from you.
43:00This arena that has been the Julius family's legacy for generations, and our marriage contracts, Octavia's and mine.
43:06I am betting all of it against every asset the Claudius family holds on your name.
43:10A commoner striking a nobleman is a capital offense, so all I need to do is strip Corvus of his
43:15nobility and reduce him to a commoner himself.
43:18You already pulled your family back from the brink of ruin, and yet you would throw everything, your fortune, your
43:22arena, even yourself, onto the table for a worthless commoner?
43:25That's my last word. Do you have the nerve to bet?
43:27That's right. We're being gracious enough to give you this chance.
43:30If you can't even summon the courage to take it, then no one in all of Rome will ever respect
43:34you again.
43:34Damn you, these insufferable women. They've left me no choice at all.
43:37If I want to preserve the honor of the Claudius family, I have no option but to accept it.
43:42But if I lose, I lose everything. I will become a commoner.
43:46Fine! I accept!
43:49You commoner, you brought this on yourself. I'll watch you get torn to pieces.
43:55Don't waste my time. Show me what you've got.
44:00Besides, I've still got a win. A special reward from Lady Octavia.
44:09When Marcus entered the arena, you did promise him. If he won, he'd receive a special reward.
44:13Octavia, what have you prepared?
44:15If I tell you now, it won't be a surprise anymore!
44:18He saved us both. I intend to offer something of my own as well.
44:21I made a promise to myself. If Marcus could save my sister, our family, our fate, I would give myself
44:26to him.
44:27And he actually did it.
44:31Go. Push the cage into the arena.
44:33Yes, young master Corophus.
44:35How fortunate. Beyond Goliath, I had Lord Lucius procure something far more entertaining.
44:39A northern great bear.
44:40In all of Rome, there are no more than three warriors alive who could hope to face such a beast.
44:45Marcus, I want to see that pathetic, tear-streaked face of yours down on your knees begging.
44:54Marcus, I owe you an apology for how we treated you before. You are the greatest warrior I have ever
44:59seen.
45:00Please, keep winning. The fate of the Julius family and both of the young ladies rests entirely in your hands.
45:07Every one of you fought with an unbreakable spirit. You are worth to be called warriors of Rome.
45:11Go rest. I'll hold this ground.
45:14Yes, Lord Marcus!
45:35A roar like that, only one beast in this world makes such a sound.
45:42Gods above, not only do we get to see the supreme warrior face a gold-tier gladiator, but there might
45:47actually be a death hunt today?
45:48The son of the gods is destined to claim gold-tier. No, he'll become a legend of Rome.
45:53But facing a beast alone, that's sheer madness, isn't it?
45:56A cart that museth. Whatever's in there is no ordinary wolf.
46:00Search every arena in Rome, and you'd barely find a single man who's ever taken down a great beast alone.
46:20Just as I suspected.
46:22A northern giant bear.
46:24To face a beast of this monster in a death hunt, you'd need at least ten elite gladiators working together.
46:30And even then, killing a bear that size would cost more than half their lives.
46:34This isn't fair. Cassandra, open the gate! Let Marcus out right now! There's no time left!
46:39Escape? I starved that beast for an entire month, just for today.
46:44Not only Marcus. If you put its own cubs before it right now, it would tear them apart without hesitation.
46:50Marcus!
46:51And let's not forget, this is a death hunt. Once it begins, only one side walks out alive.
46:56That is the rule of every last one of Rome's 300 arenas.
47:00I won't just take back everything I've lost.
47:02I'll claim the Julius family's grand arena, and both of you pretty little prizes along with it.
47:06Ha ha ha ha ha!
47:07Oh, and best of all, that worthless commoner Marcus.
47:11I get to watch that northern giant bear tear him apart and tear him apart, right before my very eyes.
47:16What a glorious sight that will be.
47:26Ha ha ha ha!
47:28Did you see that? The man was so terrified his legs gave out, he couldn't even run!
47:33Just watch it. That miserable wretch will be torn to pieces by the northern bear soon.
47:38Both of you, burn this into your memory. This is what happens to those who dare cross Chorus Claudius.
47:45You guys! If anything happens to Marcus, I'll throw you off this ledge with my own hands!
47:51Ah! Ah! Ah! Damn you, you, you vile...
48:00Enough!
48:15Gods above! What in the name of Rome is he doing?
48:18Why would he turn his back on the northern bear? Move! Move already!
48:21I can't watch. Oh, gods of Olympus, please, watch over this great war.
48:26Is he the warrior of Rome? Look! The northern bear! It's charging straight at him!
48:36All that size? And you afraid? What a waste of a body.
48:44Ah! Marcus! He stood there scanning for so long. Was he choosing a weapon?
48:49Then why did he only pick such a short dagger?
48:52There were spears, great swords. Yet he only took a dagger. And what's more...
48:58So what if he's strong? A blade that short is like a mosquito bite to a great northern bear.
49:03Huh! This humble gladiator, utterly beyond redemption in his arrogance. Who does he think he is?
49:10Marcus's expression never changed. Not once. If anything, there was contempt in his eyes.
49:15Could he truly, truly, be confident he can kill a fully grown great northern bear?
49:43This... How is that even possible? Is he even human?
49:46Cassandra! He did it! Marcus is literally a god. Even across all of Rome, there are barely a handful who
49:52could do what he just did.
49:54Yes. He actually did it.
49:56But Marcus, a warrior this powerful, this unstoppable, there is no way you were a nobody. Who are you? Really?
50:03No way you were a nobody. Who are you? You still want to fight back?
50:25No way you were a nobody. Who are you?
50:39No way you were a nobody. Who are you?
50:52No way you were a nobody.
50:53Who are you? Seriously?
51:00No way you were a nobody.
51:00No way you were a nobody.
