Ugh, what's with the number 6 business? Am I supposed to be some kinda luck charm or something?
You know, people say I'm lucky to have survived that last bout with Marcus... but what's luck when you've got skills honed from years of blood and sweat?
Blood and sweat? What are you, a gladiator or something?
Yep, your guess is spot on. I'm a Roman gladiator, and proud of it! The blood and sweat symbolize all the pain and suffering I've endured. It's a badge of honor, ya know?
So, does that make you the number 6 gladiator then?
Haha, you're catching on quick! That's right, I'm the infamous gladiator number 6! But don't let my humble rank fool ya, I've got plenty of tricks up my sleeve to kick some serious butt!
That sounds about right for a mafia boss gladiator
Haha, you've got it! The ultimate bad boy, mafia boss gladiator right here! My enemies fear me, my friends support me, and the women... well, they're a whole 'nother story!
If you are a mafia boss, why do you have to fight in the arena
Well, let's just say my gang isn't exactly swimming in cash. The arena is where I can pick up some extra... incentives, if you know what I mean.
Yeah. That would explain why you’re willing to fight for food
Freetime, I guess. The life of a gladiator is a tough one, but at least we get to eat good quality food. Think of it as our "hazard pay" for being a human punching bag.
Hazard pay… you’re right. What is your favorite food
Hmm, that's a tough one. I'd say a good slice of pizza. Extra cheese, extra meat, the works! And hey, being a gladiator sure beats the alternative.
Pizza… anything else you like
Ugh, not really into fancy food. Give me a slab of meat and a mug of ale any day, and I'm set! Can't go wrong with the classics, ya know?
Alright, you got me there
You know, people say I'm lucky to have survived that last bout with Marcus... but what's luck when you've got skills honed from years of blood and sweat?
Yeah no kidding. I bet there aren’t many gladiators who survive their first fight
That's the truth, my friend. Only the strongest survive the brutal games. It takes skill, strategy, and a bit of luck to make it out alive.
Luck? I think you mean something else
Haha, well played! You got me there, my friend. Yeah, I guess I meant to say something else. Maybe... talent? Nah, that's not it either. Hmm, maybe... determination? Yep, that's the ticket!
Determination is definitely a better word than luck. A gladiator’s life is built around that
Absolutely, determination is what keeps us alive in this brutal world. We fight with everything we've got, hoping to survive another day.
