Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Crushing Morals
After the seats were filled with the people of Daxam. Hundreds of people were brought out in chains onto the arena below then everyone went silent. Arias opened his eyes and stood up from the throne and went to the edge of the balcony like area he was in.
"People of Daxam below you are the greatest criminals to ever run amok on your planet. Law dictates they be imprisoned for life...but will happen when they escape. Do you all feel safe knowing that only a few chains are preventing them from slaughtering you all and your children?. I believe problems must always be nipped in the bud."
"A good number of elders agree on this matter with me on this matter, which is why you've all been gathered here to witness their execution. But I always try to be fair in what I do. This girl beside me will act as their executioner. She will fight each one to the death. If she fails to kill the opponent within 5 minutes that person will be set free. You may begin!".
The first opponent walked up. A tall beefy man. It's to be noted that Daxamites where very similar to Kryptonians under a yellow sun. So all her foes would be very challenging if she didn't give her all.
Arias smiled and returned to his seat whereas Kara's face looked ashen. What she could never have thought her training would consist like this. She wanted to speak but couldn't find the words to use. Arias noticed her hesitation and left her be for a while before speaking.
"4 mins left. As the executioner you have an array of lead weapons lined up for you below.".
Kara clenched her fists before flying down and picking a weapon. Her hands were trembling when she picked up two lead swords and looked at the man walking towards her. The man attacked her at a crazy speed while she was in a daze. Sending her flying into the wall. He didn't end there and proceeded to start throwing punch after punch onto her body.
"3 minutes left".
Arias didn't bother watching and had his eyes closed. He only spoke when it came to revealing the time. Raven on the other hand did look at the brutal beating Kara was receiving.
"He he. You're my ticket to freedom girly!!"
The man smiled then held Kara by the hair before slamming her into the ground over and over again.
"Haha, haha!!! Die for me!!".
"2 minutes left".
Arias still slouched on the throne only spoke those words and didn't bat an eye to the bloody Kara.
Then a man kicked her a few meters back and walked slowly towards her. But as soon as he got close. Kara picked up the sword next to her and slashed at his face. The man immediately fell down and screamed in pain, holding his hands over his face that bleed continuously from a large wound.
Lead was extremely fatal to Daxamites. Exposure to it alone would prove deadly. The slash was enough to leave the man unable to get up but only rolling on the ground.
"1 minute".
Hearing this Kara stood up shakily. She was in clear pain but picked up her sword and walked towards the screaming man. She turned and looked at Arias who still had his eyes closed then turned back to the man and raised her sword above him. *slash*. Blood splattered on the ground and the man no longer moved. Kara looked at the body and felt like puking but stayed strong and turned her gaze to Arias seeking approval.
Arias still didn't open his eyes and only spoke one word.
"Next".
Before Kara could say a thing another prisoner attacked catching her off guard and landing a critical hit on her back. Kara felt excruciating pain all over, but her body worked quickly to heal the wounds.
After another bloody fight another prisoner laid dead in the arena. Kara wasn't given any chance to rest as Arias would call for the next opponent immediately one died. Kara has to endure the pain and the urge to vomit she's felt from taking two lives already.
The next few 33 opponents all ended up dead as well. They landed many blows in total onto Kara, but she only needed one to end their attacks. Her body trembled and she felt horrendous. She was covered in the blood and tiny meat pieces from her victims. She mostly struck down people closing her eyes which didn't leave for a clean hit but instead a messy and sometimes gruesome instead. Many times after killing she did vomit as she couldn't stand the sight.
Now she was breathing heavily and waited for her next opponent but grew wide-eyed at the scene. It was a child. Who looked to be about 9-12 years old.
"She's just a little girl!what could she have possibly done!?".
Kara yelled out in fury. Arias however remained silent.
"Who you choose to spare is up to you. Why are you asking me?"
Kara looked at the child who seemed very malnourished.
"Why is she a prisoner?"
Kara often asked this question and usually an elder above would answer. The last 33 crimes were all very serious ranging from murder to rape. This made Kara feel less heavy hearted when killing them. This child however looked very innocent. On Daxam almost any serious crime could get people a life sentence especially aliens to that world since the Daxam were a very xenophobic race.
Kara looked at the elder waiting for him to say the little girl's crime, but he didn't speak. Kara kept asking but no one gave an answer.
"I stole food to feed my little brother. Our mother died, and we had no one, so we had to feed ourselves but had no money".
Kara wore a complex expression.
"If I let you go promise me you'll find other ways to find food okay?".
The little girls eye lit, and she ran and hugged Kara. Kara was a little wary at first but noticing no ill intentions she hugged the little girl back before letting her go.
