"Hey bitch, I have never gotten a single break since my first arena battle, will you just stop this already?"

  "Uncle, at this rate, you should already know I don't get to make all the decisions, and my bosses have been particularly interested in your performance lately, so..."

  Liar, you are not even trying to hide it anymore... you are the one happy to see this, and I bet if you can make the arena battle a once a day affair instead of once in three days, you would have done it long ago, psycho bitch...

  "Please, can't you plead on my behalf; they should know I might really die if this continues."

  "Uncle don't you like becoming stronger at this rate?"

  "Stronger or not, I don't like things I can't enjoy, and who told you fighting ugly beast in a marathon will make someone stronger?"

  "Uncle at this rate, you are already a lot stronger than before, thanks to it and my effort, so, it matters."

  So you finally admitted everything was your decision...

  "What can I do to change your mind?"

  "Uncle at this rate, its just few more arena battles and you will soon get the treatment of an elite..."

  I wonder when that will that be, I might have already escape your bitchy claws by then...

  Uncle at this rate you want to leave me, I won't allow it... I am destined to be your baby factory, together we will be, to the end of time...

  "Fuck you."

  ***

  Special private dining room.

  "My point value... it has risen to thirty two." Skylar answered pretty sis who is sitting beside him.

  In front of them is a table supporting a number of mouthwatering delicacies—vegetables, fruits, meats and wines of quality escaping the mortal standard.

  At his reply, the big guy—Mr rabbit—in front of him almost choked on the meat in his mouth, and the little unicorn busy with its fruity treats beside the big guy, both facing Skylar and pretty sis at the other end of the big table vanished briefly.

  That's very fast... its only been about thirty days and he is not even serious about improving himself...

  "Pretty sis, is it bad?"

  Confused about their strange reaction, Skylar inquired before he placed an earthen cup of fruit wine in his mouth.

  "Its not like that." Pretty sis squeaked. "I just think you have come a long way." She added, shifting his attention and the direction of the conversation.

  Hmm... She is right, I have indeed come a long way... getting caught by that wolf, meeting that bitch, resisting and overcoming the insane gravity of this place, that strange qualification trial, meeting this guys, my first and eventful arena experience, changing location, unexpectedly adapting to the arena and to finally plotting a grand prison break...

  Skylar thought ruefully. Meanwhile, he didn't stop chewing on one juicy delicious vegetable that has its end hanging on his mouth. And it was after he ingested the vegetable that he continued:

  "Pretty sis... When is that friend of yours coming?"

  In response, pretty sis paused briefly, thinking to herself:

  They should be here already, I know, they are definitely taking their time as usual...

  "They should arrive anytime soon." She replied. Then she glanced briefly behind her at the gigantic black door adorned with glowing and sparkling precious stones of carefully selected variety.

  "Oh! Okay." Skylar responded and continued with emptying his plate, musing internally.

  According to our escape plan so far, that friend of hers is not really needed, but for an extra layer of protection, I might include her if she can be used...

  ...

  If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

  A few minutes later...

  The ornamented gigantic door far behind Skylar and the golden rat—Pretty sis—opened at the middle slowly and silently, revealing a giant black snake that is escorting a being by its side with an obvious extreme courteousness.

  A while after, the door closed with a thud, shutting out the black gigantic snake but not the being. Moreso, its sound attracted the attention of the big guy and little guy who were previously preoccupied with their meal and are facing its direction.

  Then a Soulful meow echoed, and this strange sound expressing a particular trait of this invading being pervaded the entirety of the chamber and the spirit off all its occupants—Skylar's group of four—and finally it gave Skylar a reason to turn around with curiosity and determine if this unknown creature of familiar and mysterious origin is worthy of his attention.

  So, turning around, he saw a mysteriously enchanting whiter than snow chubby cat, elegant and majestic yet is strolling leisurely and gracefully in his direction with her delicate-looking body expressing clearly her lackadaisical mood and laziness.

  Wait, her eyes...

  Having laid his eyes on her ruby red and captivating cat eyes which seems to have a spiky black ring around its big ruby iris when looked at at certain angles, therefore its existence uncertain to Skylar; he paused.

  Maybe its the reflection or my imagination...

  He concluded.

  Meanwhile, the enigmatic cat a fair distance away from him like a sudden flash, appeared at his side, specifically beside his thigh in lotus position for he is sitting on the floor.

  "Wow!" I couldn't even sense a thing, is she the goddess of stealth or something...

  Amazed by her speed feat, he exclaimed, then he watched her gracefully climb on top of his lap and take her nest on his crotch like the boss.

  Look at this guy, what if you dirty my new pant that serpent gave me...

  He joked internally. Then as he tried to hold the cat, he has to pause his big hands on her bright white velvety fur that felt heavenly.

  Fuck! Her fur... it feels great, just like velvet... Hmm, this smell, this fragrance...

  While he feel and pet her fur, he looked lost in thought and his face also displayed a state of mild intoxication. Then like bringing him back from fantasy land, a lazy and musical voice as if from heaven echoed in his mind:

  "Boy, so you are the reason our caliber has been out of action for a long time?..." The voice asked.

  Then at it, Skylar as he regained rationality pause with his hand to his chin, thinking.

  Hmm telepathy, just like that serpent bitch, a very useful ability indeed...

  "Pretty sis, is this small cat your friend we were waiting for?" Skylar asked, obviously ignoring the cat on the verge of napping off on his crotch that he also pointed at rudely.

  Then responding, the golden rat nodded affirmatively with a lost and awkward expression on her face. Meanwhile, the big guy and little guy on the opposite side sipping wine like old men glanced at the cat briefly with figurative question mark on their faces before they continue in their own world that exclude the others and their affairs.

  This world is very funny, a cat and a rat are friends....

  Skylar chuckled lightly. Then once again, he observe the white cat on his crotch while Pretty sis steal a glance at him, looking thoughtful while she also try to regain her calm from the fear of Skylar rude interaction with her friend.

  He is the same as usual, fearless and awful honest, but...

  She shook her head.

  ...

  "Servant, serve this great me already."

  A while later, the lazy voice of the cat yawning lazily echoed in Skylar's mind again.

  What's with this little bitch, you came late and you still have the nerve to demand the treatment of a queen...

  "She is one of the arena's ten strongest."

  The golden rat who have recovered from her awkwardness like having guessed Skylar thought written on his face informed him.

  Then at the end of the her message, the big guy who is flushed from taking too much wine sobered up instantly as he looked vigilantly at the harmless looking cat, his fur standing as a result of his tensed muscles and his sharp metallic claws fully revealed and ready for action. And the little guy like usual unbothered continue with his drinking—he can vanish a moment notice of danger.

  Oh this small thing can fight... wait

  "fuck!"

  Skylar who was thinking as he examined the cat on his crotch exclaimed suddenly after he fully processed the message of the golden rat.

  "Mr rabbit pass me a plate over there."

  Urgently like he resumed a divine duty after his mood suddenly changed from a sudden realization, he addressed the tensed big guy, requesting a gold plate he then passed to him naturally. Then like a pro after he collected the plate, he carefully gathered on it the finest and best meats available in front of them with his face radiating a smile that hint genuine politeness, while he also ignored the strange look his roomies directed at him.

  Why is Sky doing this? Is there some secret behind his action that I don't know?...

  The golden rat wondered. Then Skylar unaware of her thought and gaze requested verbally as he sprinkled spices on the assorted meat on the gold plate:

  "Lady cat, do you want vegetables too?"

  "No. Meat and strong wine will do." Lady cat replied as usual, telepathically and lazily.

  "Okay ma'am." Skylar responded. Meanwhile, he picked a clay jar containing wine which some of it he poured into a golden cup. And as he set the wine cup beside the gold plate, Lady cat voice carrying a disguised expectation echoed in his mind:

  "Boy, feed this great me already."

  Naturally Skylar heeded. He sat up the lazy cat, and after he cleaned his hand in a bowl of water, he fetched a tender juicy meat and brought it close to the mouth of the cat that happily bit on it and swallow.

  She meowed:

  "Boy, you are interesting. This great me has decided to make you my servant, are you willing?"

  Wait, does she want me to be cooking for her and feeding her?...

  Skylar thought as he fed her a drink from the golden wine cup, acting like he didn't hear her request.

  She resumed:

  "When Raftelia told this great me your cooking was the best she has had in almost a yarn, this great me did think she was exaggerating a lot, but this great me can say now she didn't do your mastery justice with her vague comment. This is the best in all the lands."

  She made a hearty assessment of Skylar's cooking while she chew on an oily piece of meat—Skylar is feeding her—ungracefully and in utter bliss.

  Meanwhile, the others, especially the golden rat watching the celestial scene of man and cat that seem to radiate a mystical glow nodded and agreed simultaneously with Lady cat's ungraceful reaction like they have been there before.

  You are eating my food now... I only pray you don't later prove useless...

  Skylar thought as he looked at lady cat instinctively with gentleness.

  I also want to be fed...

  The wistful golden rat watching them leaked her thought.

  "Sky what about our plan?"

  She questioned, interrupting their golden time—her decision, maybe stemming out of jealousy or not.
