The Crowd around the arena was large as I moved through it. I knew that Francis was looking forward to another fight, but my head was seething in anger. I was hoping for some good subordinates that I could control moving forward. Barring that, I was expecting some spies from my siblings.

This was the worst-case scenario for me, and this was something I knew the council didn't arrange but my father. I did not know my father's problem with me was, but he was an incompetent leader in my mind. His utter lack of care towards society's lower echelons was flabbergasting to me as someone who came from modern society.

I understood that I was no longer in a democracy, but the entire backward style of council ruling with kingship in a fucking tribal system pissed me off. Our nation's political power was all over the place, with the military's power spread all over too. This will only become more prevalent in the upcoming war.

Higher-ups or kids with no experience in the military would most likely be put in charge of strategy. This is something that the empire would not have a problem with. In comparison, we would be suffering from someone put in control that might not exactly understand what they were doing. Or even worse, think they know what they are doing without having any experience.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I wanted to take over and change these things. Our country's inefficiency with its remarkably poor distribution of power was what allowed our citizens to be kidnapped as slaves for such a long time.

Finally, as I was fuming in my thoughts, I heard Francis chuckling, forcing me to look up. I saw his devilishly handsome face with a giant smirk on it. "You look angry, Ambassador," Francis said.

"Shut up," I heard myself say. My anger taking over my actions, and Francis's face showed surprise. "In the arena now, I need to vent." I finished, and without any more words exchanged, we entered into the coliseum. There was a fight just ending with a Succubus woman beating the shit out of an Incubus about cheating. This would have had me laughing hours before. Now I was angry and couldn't care less as they left with the succubus dragging out her pulverized ex-boyfriend or whatever status towards the medical area.

My feet landed inside the arena with Francis right afterward. Our mana being made known as we got ready to battle. Francis walked across the arena meaninglessly before turning to me. "Ready little;e bunny?" He taunted with a large smile.

I returned the smile with one of my own. I felt no need to return with words, and I started to exercise my mana pool. I fell through a rift into the sky and high up into the air. I was hundreds of meters up in the air and let myself fall. I looked down, using mana to stop the wind in my eyes. Francis seemed to be confused about where I was.

I started to reach the velocity that I wanted, and I powered my limbs with my robust mana. My hair flew as I entered into a new rift. I appeared behind Francis to his surprise with my foot falling upon his head. He received with his arm suddenly appearing above him and my bones groaning under the strain. My mana powered through, and I heard him grunt. My other leg lashed out, hitting him solidly on the back of his head before I rifted beside him as he retaliated.

My fist landed on his jaw as he turned, and I rifted out again. The fight had just started, and I was rifting out and attacking him quickly using the sudden velocity from my fall before rifting into the air to regain it. Francis seemed to yell out something as I fell from the sky again to regain velocity. Rifting up into the sky again was a necessity. I wasn't strong enough to hurt him through his large muscle mass and his reflexes. In the previous fight, I had to use surprise even to land a hit on him.

Still, since my initial hit on Francis, I noticed him protecting the arm my initial blow landed on him. I knew I had done damage that couldn't be done since his body was resistant to outside mana. I continued to plan my next execution as I fell from the sky, and a portal opened up again.
