A small, plump creature wiggle around in a red jacket adorned with gold buttons. His skin is covered in light green fur and he has large, captivating eyes. His four arms and legs are rounded at the ends, but that doesn't stop him from holding a sort of microphone in the crook of his paws. He enthusiastically greets the audience in the arena and elsewhere. Music seems to come out of nowhere to accompany his words:

Welcome! Welcome!

Yes, welcome to the GM4 Arena!

Today, no new match… Well, sorry: it will be for next week…

This is an announcement about this next arena match. After careful research, we managed to find the ideal opponents for the next match, corresponding as much as possible to the requests of the winner of the contest…

On this subject, I dare to hope that more of you will participate next time: otherwise, I risk losing my place… I have invested a lot of resources in the “arena” project and, if I get fired… Let’s say that unemployment would be less terrifying than what would happen to me…

But I have great confidence in you, loyal public, for your future support…

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

The creature takes a small green handkerchief out of one of his pockets and wipes the sweat that is dripping from his forehead. Contrary to his statement, GM4 does not seem very reassured.

Here are the participants in the next match:

On one side, a pair of Naga fighters. A level 11 magician and her protector, a tank, level 11 as well. Interestingly, these Nagas come from a fairly rare mutant species that we went to find in a distant arid place: they are desert Nagas!

Their opponent will be none other than a Minotaur with the Barbarian class… which doesn’t change much from a normal Minotaur, I grant you. At level 15, will he be a sufficiently powerful opponent against the powerful level 11 duo? A veteran of the Tower arenas from which he was drawn, he could well come out on top thanks to his combat science and powerful equipment.

IT’S TIME TO TAKE BETS!

According to your technical support, enter the group of fighters that you think should win this confrontation (the opponents’ creature sheets will only be revealed at the time of the confrontation).

In case of victory, you will receive a large amount of currency according to the one used by your technical support (Trust, Gold, Reputation, Favor, Points… etc.)

And that’s it: that’s all for today. Don’t forget to bet (one bet maximum per person) and expect a fantastic fight next week!
