chapter 13 : Monster.

The three days that followed proved Orion right, the whole city was talking about the new champion of House Batiatus and how he with ridiculous ease defeated the Gaul who had remained undefeated until then, the champion of Capua, Crixus.

 However, the subject that was the most commented on regarding this rumor was the physical appearance of this new champion, a young man with dark skin, sculpted muscles and an almost feminine face. Many who were not at the arena that day greatly regretted it.

 In a villa in Capua, two magistrates drank a rather special new wine in their baths while female slaves cleaned them.

 It was the villa of the magistrate Sextus who drank with his counterpart Titus Calavius, another magistrate and the two savored the blood of Venus which had become the new fever of Capua.

 Titus: By the gods! This wine...Hmm, this wine is literally divine!

 Sextus: I confirm...he is divine! I've been drinking it for a few days and I'm having trouble stopping, its name is well deserved! I'm afraid our status as married men no longer means anything in the presence of this wine and women.

 Both: AHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!

 Titus: Aaaaah Venus' blood ! I truly believe that the blood of this goddess flows in this wine! Do we know who makes it?!

 Sextus: Unfortunately no, the sellers are anonymous and go through intermediaries. Many have tried to follow them or find out who they are but all have died trying.

 Titus: This is a very mysterious fact! It reminds me of this artist who created magnificent drawings on paintings, these works were worthy of the gods themselves but like the creators of the blood of Venus, he remains anonymous.

 Sextus: I don't think so...several months ago, I heard that a handsome young man had sold some magnificent drawings at auction in the main market square! Unfortunately no one saw him again, it seems that he hired the services of Rufus the slave seller.

 Titus: Um, enough chatter, my cock is as hard as a sword and I feel like I have the energy of my 20s because of this wine! Let's enjoy a little the products of your home my friend (He started to caress one of the slaves)

 Sextus: Speaking of swords, are you aware of the rumor about the new champion of Capua?!

 Titus: Don't tell me about it! He's a swaggering kid who showed up late for his fight and fought unarmed. I left from the start of this ridiculous fight.

 Sextus: Unarmed?! And this kid, as you say, still defeated the formidable Crixus, whose strength is no longer in question!?

 Titus: If you ask me, this fight looks to me like it was arranged by that rat Batiatus! Everything is good for him to attract attention!

 Sextus: Still, I'm still curious about him, I've been bored since my return from Rome and this heat isn't helping anything. Batiatus is organizing a reception tomorrow in honor of this new champion, we lose nothing by going and seeing it. I invited my cousins ​​myself!

 Titus: Well, we'll go, but for now...I can't wait to savor the women of this house!

 The two began to lay the slave girls in the bath roughly and eagerly.

 The next day, in the evening in the villa of Batiatus, the reception began and the guests came little by little to lay eyes on the new champion of this house, a handsome, strong and free gladiator, which was an extremely rare case.

 Batiatus was discussing two men from high Roman society, the senator Quintulius Varus and his friend Cossutius.

 Apparently, by chance, this senator was passing through Capua on his way for Naples on business when his friend Cossutius detained him for the evening organized at Batiatus's house.

 These two bastards were sexual sadists who took pleasure in watching their slaves have sex.

Cossutius heard from one of the women invited to the last evening organized by Batiatus of the prowess in bed of Orion, the new champion and came in the hope of seeing him at work.

 Batiatus: The gods bless me with the presence of distinguished guests like you!!

 Varus: I am only passing through Capua, it was Cossutius who detained me to see your champion.

 Batiatus: Like everyone present this evening! Orion , in addition to being handsome as a god, is also a combat genius.

 Cossutius: We have no doubt about it. However, it is for one of his exploits of another…nature that we are here this evening (He got closer to Batiatus!)

 Batiatus felt a certain pressure on him, the last time Orion accepted while telling him that it was the last time he would do this and with a favor in exchange.

 Succeeding in convincing him to start again will be a difficult task because Orion is a free man.

 Varus: Besides, where is he?! This evening is in his honor, isn't it?!

 « I prefer to wait until there are a few more people to present the champion, I have to satisfy all my guests! »

 Batiatus said to make the others smile but in fact he was under pressure himself as he was having difficulty controlling the actions of Orion who normally should have already been there but was still not present.

 In Orion's dressing room, while Batiatus was wondering where his champion was, the latter was having sex with Salma who kept scratching his back without knowing it because of the pleasure.

Orion turned her around and started fucking her doggy style for the third time since they started, Salma's moans became even louder.

 Seven minutes later, they finished after almost 40 minutes of uninterrupted sex. Orion was lying next to the girl who rested her head on his chest, he remembered the evening in the villa so he quickly went to dry clean himself with his water and Salma fell asleep!

 In the villa, several of the guests were already there and more were arriving, much to Batiatus's surprise. He saw someone and rushed to greet them

 Batiatus: Magistrate Sextus! It's a great honor to have you here tonight, a blessing from the gods.

 Sextus: Only rain would be a blessing from the gods at this time!! Your new champion really intrigued me I must admit. Where is he ?!

 "He is getting ready dear magistrate, his day of training has been very tiring" Lucretia said coming out of nowhere, she greeted the Magistrate.

 They noticed the girl who came with the magistrate, it was Seppia, Sextus' young cousin! She was a beautiful young brunette with black eyes.

 Lucretia: Seppia! It's good to see you again, the last time I saw you you were just a child!

 Seppia: It's actually been a long time considering how time has not spared you (Lucretia grimaced)!

 Lucretia: (rictus) Where is your brother Seppius?!

 Seppia: My brother is in Naples to visit our uncle, he is bringing him things from Rome. Where is your new champion?! Is it true that he is as handsome as they say despite his dark skin?

 Batiatus: The new champion of Capua is quite a special being, his strength is matched only by his beauty!

 "Champion of Capua or champion of House Batiatus?!" someone said contemptuously. They all looked in the direction of the voice to see Solonius walking with the magistrate Titus Calavius, behind them were four men.

 "That cocksucker Solonius!" Batiatus muttered with hatred! He greeted the magistrate as did his wife and they began to chat.

 The party was in full swing but Orion was still not there and some were starting to lose patience until he finally showed up.

 Those who had seen it before had a strange look on their faces, as if they saw the most beautiful jewelry but couldn't afford it, especially the women.

 For those who didn't know his identity, they looked at Orion silently wondering who he was or what noble family he came from.

 He did not have Roman features and his skin was dark, some said he was a prince from elsewhere and for others, they even thought in the extreme of a divine apparition.

 Orion wore a white toga similar to those of the members of the senate except for a few details, his beautiful, long wavy hair cascaded over his shoulders and a few strands in fringe on his face.

 He wore golden armbands on his muscular arms and gold earrings. This whole ensemble was enhanced by her silver eyes.

 *Clanck*

 Without even realizing it, a woman dropped her cup of wine while watching Orion walk. Batiatus saw his champion's entrance and even he had to admit that this bastard knew how to take care of his entrances.

 Seppia looked at Orion with a trembling body, she didn't know who he was but her pussy was completely wet just looking at him.

 Batiatus: Dear guests, let me once again introduce to you the new Champion of House Batiatus, the man who defeated Crixus in his first fight in the arena, the new jewel of Capua! Orion, the Death Star. (he pointed at Orion)

 *silence*

 For a few seconds, there was complete silence in the room before a commotion broke out. The newbies couldn't imagine that a man with such an appearance was a gladiator and even those who already knew it didn't want to realize that.

 Orion stood there in front of everyone with an expressionless face, he was really bored with all the attention on him. Everyone likes to feel admired but at a certain point it becomes disturbing beyond words.

 People came and looked at him closely and sometimes even too closely, Batiatus however warned the crowd that Orion was a free man and did not like to be touched.

 Cossutius: Fascinating! Totally fascinating, his face is almost that of a woman, a pure beauty made by the hand of the gods themselves. I definitely want to see him in action.

 Varus: I was told that the new champion of Batiatus was a handsome young man but what I see is beyond words. It's a shame he's a free man.

 The two men rushed to Batiatus to talk with him. Meanwhile, Ilithya was chatting with her friends Caecilia, Licinia and Aemilia who had become like young girls excited in front of a prince upon seeing Orion.

 Caecilia: How can a man be so handsome?! Ilithya, you stayed here much longer than us. How is he ?!

 Ilithya: He is someone who apparently hates orders and nobles, a proud man but above all strong in many areas.

 Aemilia: Is it true that you saw him in bed with a woman?! How is he ?! What is his size ?!

 Ilithya: Yes, I saw him like many people that evening, none of us remained the same after what he showed us! Orion, at the request of Batiatus, had made love with a slave and the only word capable of describing his performance is "divine"!

 Caecilia: Go deeper, please!

 Ilithya told them and described everything that had happened that day to the cries of astonishment of her friends.

The size of Orion's cock, his endurance, his technique and even his partner's multiple orgasms were the details that almost gave his friends a fever.

 On Orion's side, a particularly interested girl examined him from head to toe while he drank wine, it was Seppia who looked at him as a truly delicious dish.

 Orion didn't say or do anything, he would react if there was physical contact but let anyone who wanted to look at him while peacefully drinking his wine.

 She tried to touch him when Orion said in a cold voice, "Please forgive me, miss, but I hate physical contact with a stranger!" 

 Seppia: You are really...surprising, far from my imagination! I have been told of your beauty and strength, but you are truly indescribable now that I see you. Wouldn't you like us to get to know each other?

 Orion: Not interested, girls from noble families have no interest in me!

 Seppia: It's really a shame that you're not a slave, I would have bought you back on the spot in Batiatus so that you could be mine.

 Orion ignored her and continued drinking until Ilithya and her friends closed in on their position.

 Meanwhile, Batiatus was chatting with his guests.

 Batiatus: Senator Varus, magistrates Titus and Sextus, what do you think of my gladiator?! Isn't it absolutely beautiful?!

 Cossutius: Oh yes, he is.

 Varus: You have a most interesting specimen there, I would also like to see what he is capable of.

 Titus: Exactly! Batiatus, your new "Champion", is divinely beautiful, but a gladiator is what he is by his strength and his mastery of the sword, not by his beauty.

 Solonius: I support the magistrate in his words! You invited us here to see your ludus' new champion so you can give us a demonstration! Is not it ?!

 Batiatus: Very well, I will go prepare some of my titans to face him and...(interrupted)

 Titus: So that you arrange a fabricated fight like with your Gaul?! No ! This brave Solonius has brought four of his finest gladiators to test your man, accept this gesture of goodwill Batiatus.

 Batiatus gritted his teeth in anger and replied, "I don't MIND! We can do it now if that's your wish. ".

 He then went to talk to Orion about the details of his fight and Orion accepted, he wanted to finish it quickly to go find Salma in bed.

 Very quickly, the crowd moved towards the balcony of Batiatus which overlooks the gladiators' training yard. Everything was organized quickly and Orion had requested to fight all four of Solonius' men at the same time.

 Doctore called the other gladiators to witness Orion's performance under the command of Batiatus and they all watched as Orion stood before the four foreign gladiators each with a sword in his hand.

 On the balcony, several women looked at Orion with stress as they still refused to admit that he is a gladiator.

 Batiatus looked at the men ready to fight and gave the signal to begin the demonstration but Orion signaled to wait when the others wanted to attack.

 Believing that Orion was afraid, some people started laughing including Solonius and Titus Calavius ​​but Orion's next actions shocked them. He threw his sword far away and looked at the people on the balcony.

 "Give me the object of your choice to kill them" he asked calmly after throwing his sword and this simple sentence caused an uproar among the guests.

 "Here and have fun CHAMPION!!" one of the guests threw his metal wine cup at him after he emptied it. Orion took it and stood calmly in front of his opponents.

 Gladiator A: You just made a very big mistake, little one!

 Gladiator B: Didn't your Doctore teach you not to underestimate your opponents?!

 Gladiator C: Stop trying too hard! Take a good look at him, this kid is nothing like a gladiator so let's finish this quickly.

 Gladiator D: This will be easy, let me go first.

 He advanced under the encouragement of the crowd in front of Orion who only looked at him and he sent a diagonal attack with his sword. Only, halfway through, Orion's hand quickly intercepted his arm to block the blow and with a horribly rapid movement...

 *Shrooooomp*

 Orion thrust the edge of the wine cup into his neck, the blow was fast, brutal and terrifyingly precise! The crowd behind and the gladiators almost didn't see Orion's act, they only saw him block the gladiator's arm and the latter stopped moving.

 Suddenly the gladiator vomited a lot of blood and he collapsed, the crowd was shocked to see the mark on his neck as it was a bloody circle matching the edge of the bloody cup that Orion had in his hand.

 The other three gladiators then looked at Orion with a sense of crisis, they were experienced fighters and they instinctively knew that the boy in front of them could no longer be neglected at any cost.

 They no longer hesitated and together attacked Orion who greeted them with a dark smile.

 As he watched them attack, the only thing he noticed was how slow these men in front of him were. Yet the truth was that none of them were slow but Orion was too fast for them in addition to being able to predict their movements.

 He began to effortlessly dodge the multiple attacks on him and since he didn't want to drag out the fight otherwise he would sweat, he decided to get it over with quickly.

 Gladiators A and C attacked together, he dodged Gladiator C's vertical attack and avoided the tip of Gladiator A's sword who attempted a piercing attack.

 However, Orion did not only avoid the sword but pushed it with his hand towards the abdomen of gladiator C where it lodged deeply.

 Gladiator C: Aaaaaaargh!

 Before Gladiator A even realized what Orion had made him do, Orion quickly broke his neck. All this action lasted only 3.4 seconds and the audience was left speechless.

 Gladiator B who remained the only one alive watched in horror as Orion walked towards him calmly, smiling at him.

 « Monster…a fucking monster !MOOOOONSTER! » He shouted attacking Orion who didn't give him the chance by violently hitting his face with the metal cup.

 Although stunned, he still tried to attack a second time but Orion was still much too fast for him and again hit his face with the cup multiple times until his face was bloody. and he can't even move.

 Orion easily won his fight but there was total silence everywhere. He had fought in his white toga which until the end had not even been spotted.

He only had a little blood on his cheek coming from the face of Gladiator B who was now convulsing on the ground.

 Among the gladiators of the ludus, many were sweating and even Crixus with all his bandages and his fatigue felt a fear while looking at Orion, the same terror he felt on the arena which pushed him to give up in front of Orion haunted him again in the face of this demonstration.

 Barca and those who still despised Orion looked at him in horror, this guy's speed was not something they wanted to face for anything.

 Spartacus and Varro looked at their teacher with a bitter smile, they realized that Orion was practically playing with them during their training.

 On the balcony, many of the guests were sweating, especially the women. They looked at the handsome young man before them and realized that a true god of the arena had descended on Capua.

 Solonius, for his part, looked at his dead men on the sand and made a painful grimace.

 They couldn't even applaud because the shock was too big, these gladiators were not weak, they were experienced and well-trained fighters, but they had nevertheless fallen in front of a young man armed with a cup of wine.

 "What would have been the result if he had kept his sword?!" Someone whispered and it led to fierce discussions in the crowd but one thing was for sure, every single one of them wanted to see Orion fight again as soon as possible.

 Batiatus for his part had a smile that he had never had in his entire life, his joy was like a volcanic eruption that he wanted to hold back because he knew that the status of his house would never again be the same.
