Chapter 91 Let's See Whose Poison Is Better
However, today was his day. He was given the opportunity to enjoy the backside of a leader.
Without a doubt, he was excited about this.
Being on Lenny's good side was probably the best idea he ever had, and was definitely the greatest thing he had ever done in his life.
The best part of it was the fact that he was the only one that now had Lenny's favor.
It was not had for him to imagine the glorious life he would live in this place if he stuck with Lenny.
In fact, he might even order the other gladiators around the place.
Lenny looked around at the Gladiators.
The looks on their faces for him was a funny one.
From the beginning, lenny had done it intentionally. He had known that this was the spot that this particular crew of gladiators stayed. He had intentionally taken position here in other to use them as examples or rather test subjects to announce his arrival.
As Lenny looked into the crowd of Gladiators, each and everyone of them tried to avoid eye contact as much as possible with him.
However, they were also afraid of moving, fearing that they would be the next if they made excessive movements.
Lenny's actions spoke loudly for them to understand. Any one that crossed him was going to get it.
this was the post apocalpse. It was a world of were law and justice laid in the hands of the strong.
This was an undisputed reality.
One that Lenny knew how to escavate to his advantage.
Lenny took a deep breath in and then out.
Just this movement of his made those that were too close to back off.
This made Lenny chuckle a bit.
Truly, this was the kind of world he belonged in. This was were he thrived.
A world were is strength was law and he could govern as he wished.
of course for Lenny, Power was not his goal. It was jsut the tool he needed to get the control that he wanted to achieve.
He did not want a world that was filled with sin, but one that was free from it. And to achieve that, he was more than willing to carry the sin of the world on his shoulders.
to have a perfect world, he was willing to be the Messiah of evil. Or as many people would call it, he was willing to be the bad guy.
Seeing as they all fell in order because of his breathing alone, he felt ecstatic. It was not the drowning of power, but the hope that with this power, he could build the kind of world that he envisioned.
This were just gladiators of a small class, and he could tell that their attitude towards him had changed.
"From this moment forward till i decide it is appropriate, Pups will no longer pay the Rite of passage in this Class!"
his words were audible and it took everyone by surprise. However, no one refuted him. Not even those so called leaders.
However, Lenny was not yet done, "They will no longer be rape of any kind. anyone is allowed to refuse sex as long as you want to. Of course, I will not prevent the use of one's body for points. How a person wishes to use his own body will be to his own discretion. Lovers may love, and haters may hate. However, my word is Law. And if anyone has anything to say against it, they should step forward now!"
Lenny Paused and waited in silence for the person that would step forward. However the entire place remained silent.
no one wanted to be the one that would become the sacrificial goat.
After seeing Lenny forcing manhoods down another man's throat, no one wanted to be his next victim.
"Good! Lenny gave a slight smile. Now, I suggest we all get some sleep! We have the Coliseum to deal with tomorrow."
Lenny turned and took a place not so far from Were E701 was enjoying himself. He placed his hands under his head to serve as pillow and then he closed his eyes.
It was a while later before the first person moved and the crowd dispersed.
As they did, one person looked at Lenny from an angle.
From the moment he entered, he had been hiding his face from Lenny.
This particular person had tattoos all over his face.
It was no one other than Pocket himself.
After that stunt that Lenny pulled, some Chiefs thought it wise to send over some gifts to him.
Such was power in any situation and any society.
People would always want to get on the good side of the strong.
Also, it was because of fear.
There was only so much one could send as a gift in this place; clothes, food, maybe some human parts in case Lenny wanted to visit the female cells in other to get some.
Lenny received the gifts with open hands and that night, him and E701 enjoyed the meals.
As Lenny ate, his eyes shown in a bright understanding light.
....
A few hours later, the cells had gone silent with the arrival of sleep.
A group of Gladiators arrived stealthily.
Surprisingly, they each had knives in their hands and their faces were masked by cothes.
Their target was none other than Lenny sleeping at his corner.
They approached him consciously and steadily.
Lenny on the other hand snored loudly. There was no movement from him apart from the heaving of his chest to his breathe.
One look at him and anyone could tell that he was having happy dreams.
All together, They were ten of them.
silently, they approached. The one that led them had tattoos all over his body.
not so far away from Lenny was E701. He too had had a fulfilling day.
However, because of safety reasons, he had slept close to Lenny.
Unknown to him, this was currently the most dangerous place.
The first Gladiator in front with Tattoos on his body advanced steadily towards Lenny.
As he did, one or two gladiators opened their eyes to see what was happening.
However, they immediately pretended to be asleep.
The guy with Tattoos on his body stood over Lenny with two others that came with him.
The others stood over E701.
They were going to kill both of them together.
however, as the blades in their hands came down,
*Clank!*
The blades were jammed into the ground.
"Huh!" They were all taken aback by this.
Their targets were just before them, but now, their knifes had entered the ground and their targets were no where to be found.
They suddenly heard a loud yawn.
"Seriously guys!? In my sleep...?" Lenny stood behind them.
On one of his hands, he carried E701 by the arm. E701 was still sleeping.
Usually, the old man was more sensitive to his environment.
Being at the buttom of the Barrel made him so.
However, for this night, he had a benefactor and he was going to fully take advantage of it. After the satisfinying meal, he slept like a new born baby.
Lenny's movements had taken these men by surprise.
"How did you...!? Didn't you eat the food that was presented, how are you still awake!" The masked man with tattoos asked.
"Oh! That was from you!? Of course I ate it. It was absolutely delicious. After eating bugs for so long, it was nice to return back to mushroom paste. Although it's not as crunchy, it is definitely filling."
Lenny chuckled a bit.
Lenny could tell that these men were surprised.
How could they not be?
After all, they had poisoned his food with something to knock him out.
This was a particular drug they used multiple times and was proven effective in this place.
They had even had people that observed Lenny from afar and they all confirmed that he ate it.
However, here he was. He was bright, awake and even smiling at them.
Their poison had no effect on his body.
Normally, Poison had no effect in Lenny's body as a result of the Satan system. But even if it did, the poison at this level was nothing to him.
He had already entered the demon ranks.
His body could no longer be challenged by human standards.
Of course the sleeping poison affected E701, it did nothing to him.
"That being said, I see you guys like to play with poison. Would you like to try mine!?"
The smile on Lenny's face was menacing and without a doubt, they were about to enter a world of pain.
