Adèle is the matriarch of the Quinn family in Quesan.
This ruthless matriarch also served as the High Priestess of the Spider Temple in Quesang.
Unlike other drow settlements, Adestri held the highest authority of the family in her left hand and the scepter of the temple in her right.
She was like a greedy Black Widow, her empty heart filled with a thirst for power.
Knock knock knock.
A knock was heard on the shadowy wooden door, which exuded a dark aura.
Adèle raised her eyes.
Her gaze was sinister, and she looked like a venomous snake.
"Enter."
The one who entered was Adèle Stride's eldest daughter.
The eldest daughter of the Quinn family, and the undisputed first heir to the city of Quinn.
However, after entering the study, the young lady did not even dare to look her mother in the eye, but instead lowered her head deeply.
"Mistress".
Adele put down her quill.
She remained silent, and the pressure fell on her eldest daughter, who was nervously preparing to report the latest information from the arena.
This matriarch, who clung tightly to power, unleashed a reign of terror upon ascending to the throne.
He slaughtered all his competitors, trampled over the corpses of his family sisters, and ascended the throne of power step by step.
Adèle simply stood up, but Angelia was so frightened by her mother that her knees buckled and she almost lost her composure and knelt on the ground.
"My Lord, my Mistress, today, today is the gladiatorial arena..."
Angelia's tongue seemed to have suddenly learned to DJ.
But clearly, her birth mother, the matriarch of the Quinn family, was not pleased.
On the contrary, Adeztra's expression on the window looked like it was poisoned.
"So, who is the victor in the arena today?"
Angelia was terrified when she felt her mother's sudden, chilling gaze.
"Yes, yes, yes, ah ah ah ah..."
She was met with a cold stare from her birth mother, which made her bite her tongue, and she never managed to finish saying the name 'Assange'.
Assange, a name known to everyone in Quezon City, but one that no one dares to mention.
silence.
The study was deathly silent.
Angelia was so frightened that she dared not breathe, fearing that if she breathed out of her nostrils, her enraged mother would chop her into eight pieces and throw her into the spider forest to be used as a 'teeth-grinding toy' for the spider-like drow.
Adèle's chest heaved more and more.
"Two months ago, your sister swore to me with her life that... that damned trash wouldn't last a month in the arena."
Then, Assange lived a lively month and became the "Rookie of the Year" with a winning streak of 302 matches in the arena.
Angelia's poor, unfortunate sister was "cultivated" into a "flesh tree" by their own mother and thrown into the Spider Forest outside the city.
Then, the arena was handed over to the eldest daughter, Angelia.
When Angelia received this hot potato, she was so 'touched' she almost peed herself.
Now, another month has passed, but the defector named 'Assange' is still alive.
Still alive!
Angelia acted decisively and knelt down with a 'thud'.
She crawled to her mother's feet, clutching the hem of her black robe tightly, tears and snot streaming down her face. "Give me another chance! Please! For Her Majesty the Queen's sake, Mother, that traitor is absolutely wicked!"
"I used the 'Prison Island' magic limiter on him and assigned him the most ruthless gladiator in the arena..."
The eldest daughter of the Quinn family became increasingly aggrieved as she spoke, and almost cried herself to death.
However, the emotionless mistress didn't even give her a second glance.
Soon, several Drow Guards strode into the study.
They brought out their former heiresses.
But it doesn't matter, the mistress has many daughters.
The Quinn family has many heirs.
In the study, Madam Adèstri, like a cold, sinister snake coiled around the desk, slowly curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a twisted smile.
"Alright, Assange, let's see each other one last time before the spider ritual."
...
Quesang City, the arena.
Today, the arena has a new owner.
The seventh daughter of the Queen family.
The people below went from being shocked at first to being numb now.
What led their matriarch to kill her two heirs within two months?
What caused the arena to change owners three times in two months?
"Hey! Assange! If you win this match today, you'll be the new King of Gladiators!" A half-blooded troll wearing a leather mask slapped Assange.
Assange skillfully and expertly dodged the other party's enthusiastic 'slap'.
Assange: "..."
He calmly scooped up a spoonful of stewed beans—a dish even pigs wouldn't eat—with a wooden spoon and put it in his mouth.
Chew, chew, chew.
“…Hmm.” ’Assange,’ no, I should say Charles, replied absentmindedly.
Charmon thought it was outrageous when Assange made the early "swap".
Because both his hometown and Assange's hometown became 'regional celebrities' due to their runaway marriages.
But before Charmond could raise any questions, Assange produced a magical artifact.
'A twenty-sided die kissed by Lady Luck'.
This peculiar die can only be used once.
As long as the wish is not beyond the capabilities of the magical item, you can grant a wish by rolling the required number of points.
Then, Assange slapped his forehead and promised that the identities the two had switched should not be discovered.
Sure enough, over the past two months, Charmont has been leaping and bounding around the arena, disguised as a shadow mage, defeating one enemy after another with an assassin's dagger.
